Accounting Policies [Abstract] |
Basis of Presentation | Basis of Presentation The accompanying unaudited statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring accruals, considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating Results The results of operations for any interim period are not necessarily indicative of results for the full year. In addition, the supply chain pressures and residual impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic have increased the volatility we experience in our financial results in recent periods and this could continue in future interim and annual periods. Operating results for the six months ended June 29, 2024, are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2024. The balance sheet on December 31, 2023, has been derived from the audited financial statements at that date but does not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for complete financial statements. For further information, refer to the financial statements and footnotes included in Astronics Corporation’s 2023 annual report on Form 10-K. Description of the Business Astronics Corporation (“Astronics” or the “Company”) is a leading provider of advanced technologies to the global aerospace, defense, and electronics industries. Our products and services include advanced, high-performance electrical power generation, distribution and seat motion systems, lighting and safety systems, avionics products, systems certification, aircraft structures and automated test systems. We have principal operations in the United States (“U.S.”), Canada, France, and England, as well as engineering offices in Ukraine and India. On February 13, 2019, the Company completed a divestiture of its semiconductor test business within the Test Systems segment. The transaction included two elements of contingent earnouts. In March 2023, the Company agreed with the final earnout calculation for the calendar 2022 earnout for $3.4 million. The Company recorded the gain and received the payment in the first quarter of 2023. Restricted Cash Under the provisions of the ABL Revolving Credit Facility (as defined and discussed below in Note 7), the Company has a cash dominion arrangement with the banking institution for its accounts within the United States whereby daily cash receipts are contractually utilized to pay down outstanding balances on the ABL Revolving Credit Facility. Account balances that have not yet been applied to the ABL Revolving Credit Facility are classified as restricted cash in the accompanying Consolidated Condensed Balance Sheets. The following table provides a reconciliation of cash and restricted cash included in Consolidated Condensed Balance Sheets to the amounts included in the Consolidated Condensed Statements of Cash Flows.

Trade Accounts Receivable and Contract Assets The allowance for estimated credit losses is based on the Company’s assessment of the collectability of customer accounts. The Company regularly reviews the allowance by considering factors such as the age of the receivable balances, historical experience, credit quality, current economic conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts of future economic conditions that may affect a customer’s ability to pay. The changes in allowances for estimated credit losses for the three and six months ended June 29, 2024 and July 1, 2023 consisted of the following:
| Six Months Ended |  | Three Months Ended

In November 2023, a non-core contract manufacturing customer reported within the Aerospace segment filed for bankruptcy under Chapter 11. As a result, the Company recorded a full reserve in the fourth quarter of 2023 of $7.5 million for outstanding accounts receivable, which was subsequently written off in the second quarter of 2024. Research and Development Expenses Research and development costs are expensed as incurred and include salaries, benefits, consulting, material costs, and depreciation. Research and development expenses amounted to $14.2 million and $12.7 million for the three months ended and $27.5 million and $25.4 million for the six months ended June 29, 2024 and July 1, 2023, respectively. These costs are included in cost of products sold. Valuation of Goodwill and Long-Lived Assets The Company tests goodwill at the reporting unit level on an annual basis or more frequently if an event occurs or circumstances change that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of a reporting unit below its carrying amount. Long-lived assets are evaluated for recoverability whenever adverse effects or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable. The recoverability test consists of comparing the undiscounted projected cash flows with the carrying amount. Should the carrying amount exceed undiscounted projected cash flows, an impairment loss would be recognized to the extent the carrying amount exceeds fair value. As of June 29, 2024 and July 1, 2023, the Company concluded that no indicators of impairment relating to intangible assets or goodwill existed and an interim test was not performed in the six-month periods then ended. Foreign Currency Translation The aggregate foreign currency transaction gain or loss included in operations was insignificant for the three and six months ended June 29, 2024 and July 1, 2023.
