Accounting Policies [Abstract] |
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies | Note 2 — Summary of Significant Accounting Policies The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements are unaudited and have been prepared in accordance with the rules and regulations of the SEC. They include all adjustments that we consider necessary for a fair statement of the results for the interim periods presented. Such adjustments consisted only of normal recurring items unless otherwise disclosed. The September 30, 2021, Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet was derived from audited financial statements but does not include all footnote disclosures from the annual financial statements. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and related notes included in the Company’s 2021 Annual Report. Due to the seasonal nature of our businesses, the results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for a full year. Restricted Cash. Restricted cash principally represents those cash balances in our commodity futures brokerage accounts that are restricted from withdrawal. The following table provides a reconciliation of the total cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash reported on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets to the corresponding amounts reported on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.
|  | June 30, 2022 |  | June 30, 2021
Cash and cash equivalents |  | $ | 670 |  |  | $ | 545 |
Restricted cash |  | 14 |  |  | 31 |
Cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash |  | $ | 684 |  |  | $ | 576 |
Earnings Per Common Share. Basic earnings per share attributable to UGI stockholders reflect the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted earnings per share attributable to UGI stockholders include the effects of dilutive stock options, common stock awards and Equity Units. Shares used in computing basic and diluted earnings per share are as follows:
|  | Three Months Ended June 30, |  | Nine Months Ended June 30,
|  | 2022 |  | 2021 |  | 2022 |  | 2021
Denominator (thousands of shares): |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |
Weighted-average common shares outstanding — basic |  | 210,190 |  |  | 209,099 |  |  | 209,992 |  |  | 208,934 |
Incremental shares issuable for stock options, common stock awards and Equity Units (a) |  | — |  |  | 1,752 |  |  | 5,973 |  |  | 1,260 |
Weighted-average common shares outstanding — diluted |  | 210,190 |  |  | 210,851 |  |  | 215,965 |  |  | 210,194 |
(a)For the three months ended June 30, 2022, 5,668 of such shares have been excluded as these incremental shares would be antidilutive due to the net loss for the period. At June 30, 2022 and 2021, there were 5,718 and 2,502 shares, respectively, associated with outstanding stock option awards that were not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share above because their effect was antidilutive. Derivative Instruments. Derivative instruments are reported on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets at their fair values, unless the NPNS exception is elected. The accounting for changes in fair value depends upon the purpose of the derivative instrument, whether it is subject to regulatory ratemaking mechanisms or if it qualifies and is designated as a hedge for accounting purposes. Certain of our derivative instruments qualify and are designated as cash flow hedges. For cash flow hedges, changes in the fair values of the derivative instruments are recorded in AOCI, to the extent effective at offsetting changes in the hedged item, until earnings are affected by the hedged item. We discontinue cash flow hedge accounting if occurrence of the forecasted transaction is determined to be no longer probable. Hedge accounting is also discontinued for derivatives that cease to be highly effective. We do not designate our commodity and certain foreign currency derivative instruments as hedges under GAAP. Changes in the fair values of these derivative instruments are reflected in net income. Gains and losses on substantially all of the commodity derivative instruments used by Utilities are included in regulatory assets or liabilities because it is probable such gains or losses will be recoverable from, or refundable to, customers. From time to time, we also enter into net investment hedges. Gains and losses on net investment hedges that relate to our foreign operations are included in the cumulative translation adjustment component in AOCI until such foreign net investment is substantially sold or liquidated. Cash flows from derivative instruments, other than certain cross-currency swaps and net investment hedges, if any, are included in cash flows from operating activities on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. Cash flows from the interest portion of our cross-currency hedges, if any, are included in cash flows from operating activities while cash flows from the currency portion of such hedges, if any, are included in cash flows from financing activities. Cash flows from net investment hedges, if any, are included in cash flows from investing activities on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. For a more detailed description of the derivative instruments we use, our accounting for derivatives, our objectives for using them and other information, see Note 12. Use of Estimates. The preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, expenses and costs. These estimates are based on management’s knowledge of current events, historical experience and various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Accordingly, actual results may be different from these estimates and assumptions. Reclassifications. For purposes of comparability, certain prior-period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current-period presentation. During the second quarter of Fiscal 2022, the Company reclassified certain amounts on the Consolidated Balance Sheet and Consolidated Statement of Changes in Equity related to the accounting for the Equity Units issued in May 2021.
