Share-Based Payment Arrangement [Abstract]  
Stock-based Compensation Stock-based Compensation
We use share-based payments to compensate employees and non-employee directors. We grant incentive awards in the form of restricted stock units (a small portion of which are subject to the achievement of performance conditions) and performance unit awards (which are subject to the achievement of performance conditions). Certain of these incentive awards are share-settled, and certain of these incentive awards are cash-settled. See Note 12 in Notes to consolidated financial statements in Item 8 of our Annual Report for further description of the various types of stock-based compensation awards (other than the 2025 Performance Units, which are described below) and the applicable award terms and accounting.

As of September 30, 2025, we had unrecognized compensation cost related to our unvested cash-settled restricted stock units totaling $3.0 million. The weighted-average remaining vesting period for these unvested cash-settled restricted stock units was 2.58 years as of September 30, 2025.
Performance Unit Awards — We have granted performance unit awards to certain employees (the “Performance Units”). The Performance Units generally vest over a three-year period based on the achievement of performance goals. Historically, Performance Units have been tied to total shareholder return (“TSR”) achievement as compared to the TSR of a designated peer group, and allow for a payout ranging between 0% and 200% of the target payout. With respect to the Performance Units granted in May 2025, (i) one-half are cash-settled and are otherwise structured similarly to the 2024 Performance Units with vesting tied to our TSR over 1-, 2- and 3-year performance periods (the “2025 TSR Performance Units”), and (ii) one-half are share-settled and tied to our relative free cash flow return over the three-year period commencing January 1, 2025 as compared to the free cash flow return of a designated peer group (“FCF”), and allow for a payout ranging between 0% and 200% of the target payout (the “2025 FCF Performance Units”).
Share-settled Performance Units, excluding the 2025 FCF Performance Units, have vesting terms subject to a market condition and are measured at fair value on the date of grant using a Monte Carlo simulation model. The 2025 TSR Performance Units are cash-settled and are accounted for as liability classified awards and remeasured at fair value using a Monte Carlo simulation model at each reporting period. The 2025 FCF Performance Units are subject to an operational performance condition, with fair value determined based on the average closing price of our common stock over the 20 trading days immediately preceding the grant date.
Stock-based compensation expense is subsequently adjusted to reflect the fair value of units expected to vest, based on the likelihood of meeting the performance condition. If the performance condition is not met, any previously recognized compensation expense will be reversed.

As of September 30, 2025, we had unrecognized compensation cost related to our unvested Performance Units totaling $12.6 million. The weighted-average remaining vesting period for these unvested Performance Units was 1.80 years as of September 30, 2025.
