Accounting Policies [Abstract]

Basis of Presentation

Basis of Presentation:

The accompanying consolidated financial statements of Materion Corporation and its subsidiaries (referred to herein as the Company, our, we, or us) contain all of the adjustments necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of operations, and cash flows for the interim periods reported. All adjustments were of a normal and recurring nature.

These consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes included in the Company's 2024 Annual Report on Form 10-K. The interim period results are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards

New Accounting Guidance Issued and Not Yet Adopted:

In December 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued ASU No. 2023-09, Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures (Topic 740). This ASU updates current income tax disclosure requirements to require disclosures of specific categories of information within the effective tax rate reconciliation, as well as disclosure of income taxes paid disaggregated by jurisdiction. This ASU will be effective for the annual period ending December 31, 2025. Adoption of this ASU will result in additional disclosure, but it will not impact the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

In November 2024, the FASB issued a final ASU to require disaggregated disclosure of income statement expenses. This new standard requires public business entities to provide detailed disclosures in the notes to financial statements disaggregating specific expense categories, including employee compensation, depreciation, and intangible asset amortization, as well as certain other disclosures to provide enhanced transparency into the nature and function of expenses. This guidance is effective for annual periods beginning in the Company’s fiscal year 2027 and interim periods following annual adoption, with early adoption permitted. This guidance will be applied on a prospective basis with retrospective application permitted. Management is currently evaluating this ASU to determine its impact on the Company’s disclosures.

Revenue Recognition

Revenue Recognition

Net sales consist primarily of revenue from the sale of precious and non-precious specialty metals, beryllium and copper-based alloys, beryllium composites, and other products into numerous end markets. The Company requires an agreement with a customer that creates enforceable rights and performance obligations. The Company generally recognizes revenue in an amount that reflects the consideration to which it expects to be entitled upon satisfaction of a performance obligation by transferring control over a product to the customer. Control over a product is generally transferred to the customer when the Company has a present right to payment, the customer has legal title, the customer has physical possession, the customer has the significant risks and rewards of ownership, and/or the customer has accepted the product.

Transaction Price Allocated to Future Performance Obligations: Accounting Standards Codification 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, requires that the Company disclose the aggregate amount of transaction price that is allocated to performance obligations that have not yet been satisfied at June 27, 2025. Remaining performance obligations include non-cancelable purchase orders and customer contracts. The guidance provides certain practical expedients that limit this requirement. As such, the Company does not disclose the value of unsatisfied performance obligations for contracts with an original expected length of one year or less.
