Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]
Basis of Presentation	Basis of Presentation The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial reporting and the instructions to Form 10-Q and, therefore, reflect all adjustments which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair statement of the results for the interim periods presented. All such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. These interim condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022. Due to rounding, numbers presented throughout this report may not add up precisely to totals we provide, and percentages may not precisely reflect the absolute figures. Certain amounts in the prior periods’ condensed consolidated financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation. Separation On March 30, 2022, Crane Holdings, Co. announced that its Board of Directors approved a plan to pursue a separation into two independent, publicly-traded companies in a transaction in which Crane Holdings, Co. would retain its Payment & Merchandising Technologies segment and spin-off its Aerospace & Electronics, Process Flow Technologies and Engineered Materials segments to its stockholders (the “Separation”). On April 3, 2023, Crane Holdings, Co. completed the Separation into two independent, publicly-traded companies, Crane NXT, Co. and Crane Company, through a pro-rata distribution (the "Distribution") of all of the outstanding common stock of Crane Company to the stockholders of Crane Holdings, Co., which on April 3, 2023 was renamed “Crane NXT, Co.” The Distribution was effective at 5:00 p.m., Eastern Time, on April 3, 2023. As a result of the Distribution, Crane Company became an independent public company. Our common stock is listed under the symbol "CR" on the New York Stock Exchange. Due to Crane Company’s larger operations, greater tangible assets, greater fair value and greater net sales, in each case, relative to Crane NXT, Co., among other factors, Crane Company was treated as the “accounting spinnor” and therefore was the “accounting successor” to Crane Holdings, Co. for accounting purposes, notwithstanding the legal form of the Separation. Therefore, following the Separation, the historical consolidated financial statements of Crane Company reflect the historical consolidated financial statements of Crane Holdings, Co. with the Payment & Merchandising Technologies segment and other distributed assets and liabilities classified as discontinued operations. In connection with the Separation on April 3, 2023, Crane Holdings, Co., which was renamed “Crane NXT, Co.,” and Crane Company entered into various agreements to effect the Separation and provide a framework for their relationship after the Separation, including a separation and distribution agreement, a transition services agreement, an employee matters agreement, a tax matters agreement and an intellectual property matters agreement. These agreements provide for the allocation between Crane NXT, Co. and Crane Company of assets, employees, liabilities and obligations (including property and employee benefits and tax-related assets and liabilities) attributable to periods prior to, at, and after the consummation of the Separation and govern certain relationships between Crane NXT, Co. and Crane Company after the Separation. Transactions under the transition services agreement with Crane NXT, Co. did not have a material impact to the condensed consolidated balance sheets as of September 30, 2023, or the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023. On April 3, 2023, prior to the consummation of the Separation, the Board of Directors of Crane Company declared and paid a one-time cash dividend in the amount of $275 million to Crane Holdings, Co., its sole stockholder at that time, as part of establishing the capital structure at Crane NXT, Co. In connection with the Separation, we distributed net assets of $813.8 million through equity, including the cash dividend of $275 million and $303 million in cash balances. The net assets distributed includes an adjustment of $8.5 million recorded in the three months ended September 30, 2023, to correct the amount previously recognized at the time of the Distribution. As a result of the Separation, the Payment & Merchandising segment qualified as a discontinued operation and accordingly, the assets, liabilities and results of operations of this segment are reported as discontinued operations. See Note 2 for additional information. Recent Accounting Pronouncements The Company considered the applicability and impact of all Accounting Standards Updates issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) and determined them to be either not applicable or are not expected to have a material impact on the Company's Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations, Balance Sheets and Cash Flows.
