Accounting Policies [Abstract] |
Organization, Description of the Business and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies | Organization, Description of the Business and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies Orion Engineered Carbons S.A.’s unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include Orion Engineered Carbons S.A. and its subsidiaries (“Orion” or the “Company”). The unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”) and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for annual financial statements. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements included in our Annual Report in Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021. The accompanying unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include all adjustments that are necessary for the fair presentation of our results for the interim periods presented. Results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the full year. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies Adoption of accounting standards Government Assistance (Topic 832)—On November 17, 2021, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2021-10, Disclosures by Business Entities About Government Assistance, which requires business entities to provide certain disclosures when they have received government assistance and use a grant or contribution accounting model by analogy to other accounting guidance (e.g., a grant model under IAS 20, Accounting for Government Grants and Disclosure of Government Assistance; Assistance; ASC 958-605, Not-for-Profit Entities—Revenue Recognition). This ASU creates Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 832 (“ASC 832”). The guidance is effective for financial statements issued for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2021. Entities may apply the ASU’s provisions either (1) prospectively to all transactions within the scope of ASC 832 that are reflected in the financial statements as of the adoption date and all new transactions entered into after the date of adoption or (2) retrospectively. We adopted this standard prospectively on January 1, 2022. The adoption of this standard did not materially impact our Consolidated Financial Statements or related disclosures.
