Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract] |
Basis of Presentation and Recently Issued Accounting Standards | Basis of Presentation and Recently Issued Accounting Standards The accompanying unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) for interim financial statements and are in the form prescribed by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) in instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. The accompanying unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of The Andersons, Inc. and its wholly owned and controlled subsidiaries (the “Company”). In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements reflect all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, considered necessary for a fair statement of financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods indicated. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The results in these Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2024. An unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of September 30, 2023, has been included as the Company operates in several seasonal industries. The Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet data at December 31, 2023, was derived from the audited Consolidated Financial Statements but does not include all disclosures required by GAAP. The accompanying unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and notes thereto included in The Andersons, Inc. Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023 (the “2023 Form 10-K”). Variable Interest Entities ("VIEs") The Company consolidates any VIE of which it is the primary beneficiary. The typical condition for a controlling financial interest ownership is holding a majority of the voting interests of an entity; however, a controlling financial interest may also exist in entities, such as VIEs, through arrangements that do not involve controlling voting interests. A variable interest holder is required to consolidate a VIE if that party has the power to direct the activities of the VIE that most significantly impact the VIE's economic performance and the obligation to absorb losses of the VIE that could potentially be significant to the VIE or the right to receive benefits from the VIE that could potentially be significant to the VIE. The Company does not consolidate a VIE in which it has a majority ownership interest when the Company is not considered the primary beneficiary. The Company evaluates its relationships with the VIEs on an ongoing basis to determine if it is the primary beneficiary. The Company's Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include the assets, liabilities and results of operations of VIEs for which the Company is deemed to be the primary beneficiary. The other equity holders’ interests are reflected in "Net income attributable to noncontrolling interests" in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and "Noncontrolling interests" in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. On October 1, 2019, the Company formed The Andersons Marathon Holding Company ("TAMH") with MPC Investments, LLC ("Marathon") for the primary purpose of producing ethanol and additional co-products such as dried distillers grains and corn oil. TAMH has plants located in Iowa, Indiana, Michigan, and Ohio. The plants have a combined nameplate production capacity of 405 million gallons of ethanol but have a history of outperforming the nameplate capacity. The Company owns 50.1% of TAMH's common units and management has determined that TAMH is a VIE in which the Company is the primary beneficiary. Accordingly, TAMH is consolidated within the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements and records noncontrolling interest for the share of the entity owned by Marathon. ELEMENT was structured as a limited liability company which began operations in 2019 for the primary purpose of producing ethanol and additional co-products such as dried distillers grain and corn oil. The Company held 51% of the membership units and the Company had acted as the manager of the facility. As a result, ELEMENT was concluded to be a VIE in which the Company was the primary beneficiary and had been consolidated within the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements. On April 18, 2023, ELEMENT was placed into receivership and a receiver was appointed, which took possession and control of the rights and interests of ELEMENT. With this appointment, while retaining its investment in ELEMENT, the Company ceased to have a controlling financial interest and was no longer deemed to be the primary beneficiary in the subsidiary. Accordingly, the Company deconsolidated ELEMENT at that time and began accounting for the subsidiary as an equity method investment. Therefore, operating results from January 1, 2023, to April 18, 2023, are included within the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. The creditors of the consolidated VIEs do not have recourse to the Company other than to the assets of the consolidated VIEs. The following table summarizes the carrying amounts of the assets and liabilities of TAMH, the Company's only consolidated VIE for the periods presented in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets:

Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted In November 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued ASU No. 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures (ASU 2023-07), which requires an enhanced disclosure of significant segment expenses on an annual and interim basis. This guidance will be effective for the annual periods beginning with the year ended December 31, 2024, and for interim periods beginning January 1, 2025. Early adoption is permitted. Upon adoption, the guidance should be applied retrospectively to all prior periods presented in the financial statements. We do not expect the adoption of this guidance to have a material impact on the Consolidated Financial Statements. In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures (ASU 2023-09), which improves the transparency of income tax disclosures by requiring consistent categories and greater disaggregation of information in the effective tax rate reconciliation and income taxes paid disaggregated by jurisdiction. It also includes certain other amendments to improve the effectiveness of income tax disclosures. This guidance will be effective for the annual periods beginning with the year ended December 31, 2025. Early adoption is permitted. Upon adoption, the guidance can be applied prospectively or retrospectively. We do not expect the adoption of this guidance to have a material impact on the Consolidated Financial Statements.
