Subsequent Events [Abstract]
Subsequent Events	SUBSEQUENT EVENTS Refranchising During October 2025, the Company entered into an agreement and completed the sale of 10 company-owned service center stores and related net assets to a franchisee. The Company will derecognize the related net assets and expects to recognize a gain on sale in the first quarter of fiscal 2026 to reflect the completion of this transaction. Breeze Autocare acquisition In February 2025, Valvoline signed a definitive agreement to acquire Breeze Autocare from Greenbriar. Breeze Autocare is an independent provider of automotive quick lube and other preventive maintenance services operating predominantly under the Oil Changers brand, with an extensive footprint in California, Texas, and the Midwest. In November 2025, Valvoline received clearance from the Federal Trade Commission (“FTC”) to close the acquisition of Breeze Autocare subject to a Decision and Order from the FTC. Valvoline will acquire 207 Breeze Autocare stores, and consistent with the Decision and Order, Valvoline will divest 45 of those locations to Mainstreet Auto, LLC (“Mainstreet”), for a net purchase price of $593 million, subject to (i) adjustments for store acquisitions and sale-leaseback transactions completed by Breeze Autocare since signing and (ii) customary closing adjustments. The Breeze Autocare acquisition is expected to close on December 1, 2025, with the divestiture to Mainstreet occurring shortly thereafter. The Company intends to fund the Breeze Autocare acquisition with a newly issued $740 million Term Loan B commensurate with the closing of the transaction with excess proceeds being used to pay down outstanding debt.
