Temporary Equity Disclosure [Abstract] |
Temporary Equity Redeemable Noncontrolling Interests [Text Block] | REDEEMABLE NONCONTROLLING INTERESTS The holders of equity interests in certain of the Company’s subsidiaries have rights (“Put Rights”) that may be exercised on varying dates causing the Company to purchase their equity interests through fiscal 2032. The Put Rights, all of which relate either to common shares or membership interests in limited liability companies, provide that the cash consideration to be paid for their equity interests (the “Redemption Amount”) be at fair value or at a formula that management intended to reasonably approximate fair value based solely on a multiple of future earnings over a measurement period. The Redemption Amounts were determined using probability-adjusted internal estimates of future subsidiary earnings while considering the earliest exercise date, the measurement period and any applicable fair value adjustments. Management's estimate of the aggregate Redemption Amount of all Put Rights that the Company could be required to pay is as follows (in thousands):
|  | As of October 31,
|  | 2024 |  | 2023
Redeemable at fair value |  | $306,143 |  |  | $308,472 |
Redeemable based on a multiple of future earnings |  | 60,013 |  |  | 56,335 |
Redeemable noncontrolling interests |  | $366,156 |  |  | $364,807 |
A summary of the Put Rights associated with the redeemable noncontrolling interests in certain of the Company’s subsidiaries as of October 31, 2024 is as follows:

(1) Currently puttable. (2) Put Right previously exercised. (3) The Put Right for a 2.6% noncontrolling interest is to be purchased in a lump sum and the Put Right for the remaining 1.5% interest is to be purchased over a four-year period. (4) The Put Rights for a 10% noncontrolling interest and the remaining 9.9% interest may be exercised beginning in fiscal 2027 and 2029, respectively, with each purchase over a four-year period. (5) The Put Right for a 15% noncontrolling interest may be exercised in 5% increments annually and the first increment is currently puttable. The Put Right for the remaining 3% noncontrolling interest may be exercised in one-fifth increments beginning in fiscal 2028. (6) The exercise of a Put Right for either entity will automatically trigger a Put Right exercise for the other entity. The Put Rights for a 10% noncontrolling interest are currently puttable and the remaining 15% interest may be exercised beginning in 2025, with each purchase over a four-year period. (7) The Put Rights for an aggregate 13.5% noncontrolling interest is currently puttable with the purchase over a three-year period.

(8) The Put Right for a 7.2% noncontrolling interest is to be purchased in a lump sum and the Put Right for the remaining 4.9% interest is to be purchased over a two-year period. The estimated aggregate Redemption Amount of the Put Rights that are currently puttable, previously put, or becoming puttable during fiscal 2025 is approximately $194.2 million, of which approximately $91.0 million would be payable in fiscal 2025 should all of the eligible associated noncontrolling interest holders elect to exercise their Put Rights during fiscal 2025. Additionally, the Company has call rights to purchase the equity interests of the noncontrolling holders over the same purchase period as the Put Rights. As discussed in Note 2, Acquisitions, the Company, through HEICO Electronic, acquired 93.69% of the common stock of Exxelia in January 2023. During fiscal 2023 and 2024, a few nominal transactions between the Company and certain existing noncontrolling interest holders and members of Exxelia's management team resulted in a net decrease in the Company's ownership interest in the subsidiary to 90.69%. During fiscal 2022, the holder of a 19.9% noncontrolling equity interest in a subsidiary of the FSG that was acquired in fiscal 2017 exercised their option to cause the Company to purchase one-half of the noncontrolling interest in fiscal 2022 and the remaining one-half in fiscal 2024. Accordingly, the Company acquired an additional 9.95% equity interest in May 2022 and the remaining 9.95% equity interest in May 2024. During fiscal 2024, the holders of a 15% noncontrolling equity interest in a subsidiary of the ETG that was acquired in fiscal 2019 exercised their option to cause the Company to purchase their noncontrolling interest over a four-year period ending in fiscal 2027. Accordingly, the Company acquired one-fourth of such interest in March 2024, which increased the Company's ownership interest in the subsidiary to 88.75%. During fiscal 2022, the holder of a 19.9% noncontrolling equity interest in a subsidiary of the FSG that was acquired in fiscal 2015 exercised their option to cause the Company to purchase their noncontrolling interest over a four-year period ending in fiscal 2026. Accordingly, the Company acquired one-fourth of such interest in December 2022 and December 2023, which increased the Company's ownership interest in the subsidiary to 90.05%. During fiscal 2022, the Company sold 10% of the membership interests of a subsidiary of the FSG that was acquired in fiscal 2018, which decreased the Company's ownership interest in the subsidiary to 90%. As part of the operating agreement, the noncontrolling interest holder has the right to cause the Company to purchase its membership interest over a four-year period beginning in fiscal 2027, or sooner under certain conditions, and the Company has the right to purchase the same membership interest over the same period. The $26.6 million, $2.7 million and $8.7 million aggregate Redemption Amounts for the redeemable noncontrolling interests acquired in fiscal 2024, 2023 and 2022, respectively, were paid using cash provided by operating activities.
