Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract]  
Income Taxes Income Taxes
The Company recognized an income tax benefit of $33.9 million and $19.4 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, respectively. The effective income tax rate was 27.5% and 29.6% for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, respectively. The effective income tax rates for both periods were impacted by relatively large tax benefits generated against a forecasted pre-tax loss for the year, which magnified the impact these tax benefits had on the effective income tax rate. In periods with pre-tax losses, tax benefits generated during the period increase the effective income tax rate (and, thus, the income tax benefit to the Company) rather than decreasing the effective rate, as in periods with pre-tax income. The effective income tax rate for both the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 was higher than the 21.0% federal statutory income tax rate primarily due to earnings attributable to noncontrolling interests (for which income taxes are not the responsibility of the Company) and state income taxes (net of the federal tax benefit), partially offset by non-deductible expenses.
