Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities Disclosure [Abstract]  
Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities Disclosure [Text Block]
Derivative Instruments
We use derivative instruments to mitigate interest rate risk, including risks associated with the impact of changes in interest rates in anticipation of future debt issuances and to offset interest rate variability of certain floating rate debt issuances outstanding. We also use derivative instruments to mitigate the impact of changes in foreign currency exchange rates. Derivative instruments that are designated and qualify as cash flow hedges are accounted for by recording the effective portion of the gain or loss on the derivative instrument in accumulated other comprehensive income or loss ("AOCI") as a separate component of stockholders' equity. These accumulated gains or losses are reclassified into earnings in the periods during which the hedged transactions affect earnings. Derivative instruments that are not designated as hedges are accounted for by recording the realized and unrealized gains or losses on the derivative instrument in other, net (income) expense in our Consolidated Statements of Operations. We continuously monitor our derivative positions and the credit ratings of our counterparties and do not anticipate losses due to non-performance. See Note 7 for a description of our debt instruments.

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract]  
Fair Value Accounting
Fair Value Measurements
Fair value is defined as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for that asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. An entity is required to establish a fair value hierarchy that maximizes the use of observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. The three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value are listed below.
Level 1 – This level is defined as quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Our cash equivalents and restricted cash are instruments of the U.S. Treasury or highly-rated money market mutual funds. The assets measured on a recurring basis as Level 1 in the fair value hierarchy are summarized below:
Level 1
 March 31, 2026December 31, 2025
(in millions)
Assets:
Cash equivalents$100.6 $172.4 
Restricted cash120.0 122.3 
Total assets$220.6 $294.7 
Level 2 – This level is defined as observable inputs other than Level 1 prices such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities. Interest rate swaps and interest rate caps are valued at exit prices obtained from each counterparty. Foreign currency hedges are valued at exit prices obtained from each counterparty, which are based on currency spot and forward rates and forward points. The assets and liabilities measured on a recurring basis as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy are summarized below:

Total liabilities$9.2 $14.0 
(1) Included in other assets in our Consolidated Balance Sheets.
(2) Included in accrued liabilities in our Consolidated Balance Sheets.
Level 3 – This level is defined as unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities. As of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, we have no assets or liabilities measured on a recurring basis as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy.
See Note 7 for the estimated fair values of our debt instruments. The fair values of all other financial instruments are estimated to approximate carrying value.

Segment Reporting [Abstract]  
Segment Information Segment Information
We report our operating results in two reportable segments: (1) the Railcar Leasing and Services Group, which owns and operates a fleet of railcars and provides third-party fleet leasing, management, and administrative services; railcar maintenance and modification services; and other railcar logistics products and services; and (2) the Rail Products Group, which manufactures and sells railcars and related parts and components.
Our Chief Operating Decision Maker ("CODM") is our Chief Executive Officer. Operating profit is the primary measure our CODM uses to assess performance and allocate resources to each of our reportable segments. Gains and losses from the sale of property, plant, and equipment are included in the operating profit of each respective segment.
Sales and related net profits ("deferred profit") from the Rail Products Group to the Leasing Group are recorded in the Rail Products Group and eliminated in consolidation. Sales between these groups are recorded at prices comparable to those charged to external customers, taking into consideration quantity, features, and production demand. Amortization of deferred profit on railcars sold to the Leasing Group is included in the operating profit of the Leasing Group, resulting in the recognition of depreciation expense based on our original manufacturing cost of the railcars. Lease portfolio sales are included in the Leasing Group, with related gains and losses computed based on the net book value of the original manufacturing cost of the railcars.
The financial information for these segments is shown in the tables below (in millions). We operate principally in North America.

Noncontrolling Interest [Abstract]  
Partially-Owned Leasing Subsidiaries Partially-Owned Subsidiaries
Investment in Leasing Subsidiary
Through our wholly-owned subsidiary, TILC, we formed a subsidiary, TRIP Holdings, for the purpose of providing railcar leasing services in North America for institutional investors. Prior to the Contribution Agreement as defined and described below under “Subsequent Events”, TRIP Holdings was a direct, partially-owned subsidiary of TILC in which we have a controlling interest. TRIP Holdings is governed by a seven-member board of representatives, two of whom are designated by TILC. TILC is the agent of TRIP Holdings and, as such, has been delegated the authority, power, and discretion to take certain actions on behalf of TRIP Holdings.
At March 31, 2026, the carrying value of our investment in TRIP Holdings totaled $35.4 million. Our ownership interest in TRIP Holdings is 42.56%, with the remaining interest owned by third-party, investor-owned funds. Our investment in TRIP Holdings is eliminated in consolidation.
TRIP Holdings has a wholly-owned subsidiary, Tribute Rail LLC ("Tribute Rail"), that is the owner of railcars acquired from our Rail Products and Leasing Groups. TILC is the contractual servicer for Tribute Rail with the authority to manage and service Tribute Rail's owned railcars. Our controlling interest in TRIP Holdings results from our combined role as both equity member and agent/servicer. The noncontrolling interest included in the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets primarily represents the non-Trinity equity interest in TRIP Holdings.
Trinity has no obligation to guarantee performance under TRIP Holdings' (or Tribute Rail's) debt agreements, guarantee any railcar residual values, shield any parties from losses or guarantee minimum yields.
The assets of Tribute Rail may only be used to satisfy its liabilities, and the creditors of Tribute Rail have recourse only to its assets. Each of TILC and the third-party equity investor receive distributions from TRIP Holdings, when available, in proportion to its respective equity interests, and has an interest in the net assets of TRIP Holdings upon a liquidation event in the same proportion. TILC is paid fees for the services it provides to Tribute Rail and has the potential to earn certain incentive fees. There are no remaining equity commitments with respect to TRIP Holdings.
See Note 7 for additional information regarding the debt of TRIP Holdings and its subsidiary, Tribute Rail.
Other Investment in Consolidated Affiliate
In 2023, the Company and a third party formed Trinity Global Ventures to deliver railcars and provide warranty support services in Saudi Arabia. Trinity Global Ventures is owned 51.0% by Trinity Rail Group, LLC ("Trinity Rail Group"), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, and 49.0% by the third party. Upon consideration under the variable interest entity (“VIE”) model of ASC 810, Consolidation, Trinity has concluded that Trinity Global Ventures meets the definition of a VIE. Trinity Rail Group has a variable interest in Trinity Global Ventures arising from its 51.0% equity ownership position. We determined that Trinity is the primary beneficiary and therefore consolidates this entity as we have the power to direct the activities of the entity that most significantly impact its economic performance. At March 31, 2026, the carrying value of our investment in Trinity Global Ventures totaled $2.7 million, which is eliminated in consolidation.
Investment in Unconsolidated Affiliate
In 2021, the Company and Wafra, Inc. (“Wafra”), a global alternative investment manager, entered into a railcar investment vehicle program between Trinity and certain funds managed by Wafra (“Wafra Funds”). As part of this program, a joint venture was formed, Signal Rail Holdings LLC (“Signal Rail”), which is currently owned 88.3% by Wafra Funds and 11.7% by TILC. TILC services all railcars owned by Signal Rail.
Upon consideration under the VIE model of ASC 810, Trinity has concluded that Signal Rail meets the definition of a VIE. TILC has variable interests in Signal Rail arising from its 11.7% equity ownership position and its role as a service provider. We determined that Trinity is not the primary beneficiary and therefore does not consolidate this entity as we do not have the power to direct the activities of the entity that most significantly impact its economic performance. We will absorb portions of Signal Rail’s expected losses and/or receive portions of expected residual returns commensurate with our 11.7% equity interest in Signal Rail.
Our investment in Signal Rail is being accounted for under the equity method of accounting. At March 31, 2026, the carrying value of TILC’s equity investment in Signal Rail was $12.7 million, which is included in other assets in our Consolidated Balance Sheets. The carrying value of this investment represents our maximum exposure in Signal Rail.
Subsequent Events
On April 9, 2026, TILC entered into a Contribution Agreement (the “Contribution Agreement”) with, among others, Napier Park Rail Evergreen Fund LLC, a subsidiary of Napier Park Global Capital, one of our railcar investment partners since 2013 and a leading alternative credit platform. Pursuant to the Contribution Agreement, TILC contributed (i) its 42.56% membership interest in TRIP Holdings and (ii) its 0.2% interest in Triumph Rail Holdings LLC ("Triumph") to NP SPE Holdings LP ("NP SPE") in exchange for a 11.2% limited partnership interest in NP SPE. TILC services all railcars owned by NP SPE.
As a result of these transactions, TILC no longer has any direct ownership interest in TRIP Holdings; its wholly-owned subsidiary, Tribute Rail; or Triumph. The Company expects to recognize a non-cash pre-tax gain of approximately $130 million during the second quarter of 2026 related to the divestiture of these interests, and TRIP Holdings and Tribute Rail will no longer be included in our Consolidated Financial Statements. We currently expect that our 11.2% limited partnership interest in NP SPE will be accounted for under the equity method of accounting.

Estimated Fair Value of Debt – The estimated fair value of our 7.75% senior notes due 2028 ("Senior Notes due 2028") is based on a quoted market price in a market with little activity (Level 2 input). The estimated fair values of our secured railcar equipment notes are based on our estimate of their fair value using unobservable input values provided by a third party (Level 3 inputs). As of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, we evaluated the fair value of the other equipment financing liability using Level 3 inputs and determined that the carrying value approximates fair value. The respective carrying values of our revolving credit facility, TRL-2023 term loan, and TILC warehouse facility approximate fair value because the interest rate adjusts to the market interest rate. The estimated fair values of our debt are as follows:

Level 2$615.6 $623.9 
Level 3$3,258.6 $3,303.6 
Revolving Credit Facility – We have a $600.0 million unsecured corporate revolving credit facility. During the three months ended March 31, 2026, there were no borrowings and no repayments under the revolving credit facility. Additionally, we had outstanding letters of credit issued in an aggregate amount of $4.4 million, leaving $595.6 million available for borrowing as of March 31, 2026. Our outstanding letters of credit as of March 31, 2026 support performance bonds related to certain railcar orders. The revolving credit facility bears interest at a variable rate of SOFR plus (1) a benchmark adjustment of 10 basis points and (2) a facility margin of 1.50%, for an all-in interest rate of 5.23% as of March 31, 2026. A commitment fee accrues on the average daily unused portion of the revolving credit facility at the rate of 0.175% to 0.40% (0.20% as of March 31, 2026).
The revolving credit facility requires the maintenance of ratios related to minimum interest coverage for the leasing and manufacturing operations and maximum leverage. As of March 31, 2026, we were in compliance with all such financial covenants.
TILC Warehouse Loan Facility – TILC has a $800.0 million warehouse loan facility to finance railcars owned by TILC. During the three months ended March 31, 2026, we had total repayments of $18.1 million under the TILC warehouse loan facility. The entire unused facility amount of $339.6 million was available as of March 31, 2026 based on the amount of warehouse-eligible, unpledged equipment. Advances under the facility bear interest at one-month term SOFR plus a facility margin of 1.75%, for an all-in interest rate of 5.42% at March 31, 2026.
Subsequent Events
TRL-2025 Series 2026-1 Secured Railcar Equipment Notes – On April 17, 2026, Trinity Rail Leasing 2025 LLC, a Delaware limited liability company ("TRL-2025") and a limited purpose, indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company owned through TILC, issued an aggregate principal amount of (i) $447.4 million of its Series 2026-1 Class A Green Secured Railcar Equipment Notes (the "Series 2026-1 Class A Notes"), and (ii) $33.4 million of its Series 2026-1 Class B Green Secured Railcar Equipment Notes (the "Series 2026-1 Class B Notes") (the Series 2026-1 Class A Notes and the Series 2026-1 Class B Notes are, collectively, the “Series 2026-1 Notes”). The Series 2026-1 Class A Notes bear interest at a fixed rate of 5.35%, and the Series 2026-1 Class B Notes bear interest at a fixed rate of 5.56%. The Series 2026-1 Notes are payable monthly and have a stated final maturity date of April 19, 2056. The Series 2026-1 Notes are obligations of TRL-2025 and are non-recourse to Trinity. The obligations are secured by a portfolio of railcars and operating leases thereon, certain cash reserves, and other assets acquired and owned by TRL-2025. Net proceeds received in connection with the issuance of the Series 2026-1 Notes were used to redeem the outstanding debt of the Trinity Rail Leasing 2019 LLC Series 2019-1 Secured Railcar Equipment Notes (the "Series 2019-1 Notes"), as described below, and for general corporate purposes.
Redemption of TRL-2019 Series 2019-1 Secured Railcar Equipment Notes – On April 17, 2026, with the net proceeds of the Series 2026-1 Notes described above, we redeemed in full the Series 2019-1 Notes, of which $377.1 million was outstanding at the redemption date. The all-in interest rate for the Series 2019-1 Notes was 3.82% per annum. The Trinity Rail Leasing 2019 LLC Series 2019-2 Secured Railcar Equipment Notes remain outstanding.
Tribute Rail Secured Railcar Equipment Notes – On April 9, 2026, as a result of a railcar partnership transaction, Tribute Rail and its related debt will no longer be included in our Consolidated Financial Statements. See Note 5 for further information.

The effective tax rate from continuing operations for the three months ended March 31, 2026 was an expense of 24.2%, which differs from the U.S. statutory rate of 21.0% primarily due to state income taxes, foreign income taxes, and non-deductible executive compensation, partially offset by foreign tax return to provision adjustments.
The effective tax rate from continuing operations for the three months ended March 31, 2025 was an expense of 20.3%, which differs from the U.S. statutory rate of 21.0% primarily due the benefit of noncontrolling interest for which we do not provide income taxes and foreign tax return to provision adjustments, partially offset by state income taxes and other permanent differences.
Deferred income tax liabilities related to railcars in our lease fleet were $1.3 billion as of both March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025.

Earnings Per Share [Abstract]  
Earnings Per Common Share Earnings Per Common Share
Basic net income attributable to Trinity Industries, Inc. per common share ("EPS") is computed by dividing net income attributable to Trinity by the weighted average number of basic common shares outstanding for the period. Except when the effect would be antidilutive, the calculation of diluted EPS includes the net impact of potentially dilutive common shares. The Company has certain unvested restricted stock awards that participate in dividends on a nonforfeitable basis and are therefore considered to be participating securities. Consequently, diluted net income attributable to Trinity Industries, Inc. per common share is calculated under both the two-class method and the treasury stock method, and the more dilutive of the two calculations is presented.
The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted net income attributable to Trinity Industries, Inc.:

East Palestine, OH Train Derailment
As previously disclosed, on February 3, 2023, a Norfolk Southern Railway freight train derailed 38 railcars in East Palestine, Ohio. TILC has been named in various actions associated with this incident, including Josh Hickman, et al. v. Norfolk Southern Railway Co., et al., Case No. 2025 CV 00434, in the Court of Common Pleas, Columbiana County, Ohio ("Hickman Matter"); and Richard Tsai, et al. v. Norfolk Southern Corporation, et al., Case No. 2025 CV 614, in the Court of Common Pleas, Columbiana County, Ohio ("Tsai Matter"). TILC was the owner of one tank car cited in these actions, which was leased to a third party, who is also a defendant in these matters. On March 11, 2026, the court denied all defendants’ motions to dismiss in the Hickman Matter, including TILC’s motion to dismiss, and ordered the parties to prepare a discovery schedule.
The Company believes it has substantial defenses and intends to vigorously defend itself against all allegations in the third-party and direct claims asserted against TILC. The Company or its subsidiaries could be named in similar litigation involving other plaintiffs, but the ultimate number of claims and the jurisdiction(s) in which such claims, if any, may be filed may vary. We do not believe at this time that a loss is probable in these matters, nor can a range of possible losses be determined. Accordingly, no accrual or range of loss has been included in the accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements. The Company maintains liability insurance coverage and commercial contractual indemnity rights to protect the Company’s assets from losses arising from these types of litigation claims.
Highway products litigation
Pursuant to the purchase and sale agreement related to the sale of THP, the Company agreed to indemnify the buyer for certain liabilities related to the highway products business, including those liabilities resulting from or arising out of ET Plus systems or specified ET Plus component parts that are both (i) manufactured prior to December 31, 2021, and (ii) sold in the United States on or prior to April 30, 2022, or related warranty obligations with respect thereto.
As previously disclosed, Mr. Joshua Harman filed a state qui tam action pursuant to the Virginia Fraud Against Taxpayers Act ("VFATA") (Commonwealth of Virginia ex rel. Joshua M. Harman v. Trinity Industries, Inc. and Trinity Highway Products, LLC, Case No. CL13-698, in the Circuit Court, Richmond, Virginia). Mr. Harman alleged the Company violated the VFATA pertaining to sales of the ET Plus, and he is seeking damages, civil penalties, attorneys’ fees, costs, and interest. On February 7, 2024, the trial court granted the Company's motion for summary judgment. On March 31, 2026, the Court of Appeals of Virginia issued its memorandum opinion affirming the order of the trial court granting summary judgment in favor of the Company and affirmed the trial court’s denial of Mr. Harman’s and the Commonwealth of Virginia’s motion for reconsideration.
Other matters
The Company is involved in claims and lawsuits incidental to our business arising from various matters, including product warranty, personal injury, environmental issues, workplace laws, and various governmental regulations. The Company evaluates its exposure to such claims and suits periodically and establishes accruals for these contingencies when a range of loss can be reasonably estimated. The range of reasonably possible losses for such matters is $8.1 million to $19.8 million. At March 31, 2026, total accruals of $8.8 million, including environmental and workplace matters described below, are included in accrued liabilities in the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets. The Company believes any additional liability would not be material to its financial position or results of operations.
Trinity is subject to remedial orders and federal, state, local, and foreign laws and regulations relating to the environment and the workplace. The Company has reserved $1.0 million to cover our probable and estimable liabilities with respect to the investigations, assessments, and remedial responses to such matters, taking into account currently available information and our contractual rights to indemnification and recourse to third parties. However, estimates of liability arising from future proceedings, assessments, or remediation are inherently imprecise. Accordingly, there can be no assurance that we will not become involved in future litigation or other proceedings involving the environment and the workplace or, if we are found to be responsible or liable in any such litigation or proceeding, that such costs would not be material to the Company. We believe that we are currently in substantial compliance with environmental and workplace laws and regulations.

These interim financial statements and notes are condensed as permitted by the instructions to Form 10-Q and should be read in conjunction with our audited Consolidated Financial Statements included in our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025. There have been no changes to our significant accounting policies disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025 that had a material impact on our Consolidated Financial Statements or related notes as of and for the three months ended March 31, 2026.
Cash and Cash Equivalents, Policy [Policy Text Block]
Financial Instruments
We consider all highly liquid debt instruments to be either cash and cash equivalents if purchased with a maturity of three months or less, or short-term marketable securities if purchased with a maturity of more than three months and less than one year.
Financial instruments that potentially subject us to a concentration of credit risk are primarily cash investments, including restricted cash and receivables. We place our cash investments in bank deposits, investment grade short-term debt instruments, highly-rated money market funds, and highly-rated commercial paper. We limit the amount of credit exposure to any one commercial issuer. The carrying values of cash, receivables, and accounts payable are considered to be representative of their respective fair values.
Concentrations of credit risk with respect to receivables are limited due to control procedures that monitor the credit worthiness of customers, the large number of customers in our customer base, and their dispersion across different end markets and geographic areas. Receivables are generally evaluated at a portfolio level based on these characteristics. As receivables are generally unsecured, we maintain an allowance for credit losses using a forward-looking approach based on historical losses and consideration of current and expected future economic conditions. Historically, we have observed that the likelihood of loss increases when receivables have aged beyond 180 days or when we become aware that a customer has experienced a deterioration in their financial condition. When a receivable is deemed uncollectible, the write-off is recorded as a reduction to the allowance for credit losses. During the three months ended March 31, 2026, we recognized approximately $1.4 million of credit loss expense and wrote off $3.5 million related to our trade receivables that are in the scope of Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 326, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses, bringing the allowance for credit losses balance from $23.6 million at December 31, 2025 to $21.5 million at March 31, 2026. This balance excludes the general reserve for operating lease receivables that is permitted under ASC 450, Contingencies.
Supplier Finance Program
Supply Chain Finance Program
In cooperation with a participating financial institution, we facilitate a voluntary supply chain finance ("SCF") program for several of our suppliers. We negotiate payment terms with suppliers that are in line with average industry terms. We have not pledged any assets as security or provided other forms of guarantees to the financial institution. Under the SCF program, participating suppliers may choose to sell, at a discounted price, receivables due from us to the financial institution, at the sole discretion of both the suppliers and the financial institution, prior to the invoices’ scheduled due dates. The payment terms that we negotiate with all suppliers are consistent regardless of whether the supplier chooses to participate in the SCF program for a particular invoice. The SCF program is administered by a third-party financial institution, and our responsibility is limited to making payments based on the terms originally negotiated with participating suppliers, regardless of whether such suppliers sell receivables to the financial institution.
Amounts due to our participating suppliers in the SCF program totaled $39.9 million and $49.1 million as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively, and are included in accounts payable in our Consolidated Balance Sheets. Payments made under the SCF program are reflected in net cash provided by operating activities from continuing operations in our Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.
Discontinued Operations, Policy
Discontinued Operations
In the fourth quarter of 2021, we completed the sale of Trinity Highway Products, LLC (“THP”). Upon completion of the sale, the accounting requirements for reporting THP as a discontinued operation were met. In connection with the sale, the Company agreed to indemnify the buyer for certain liabilities related to the highway products business, including certain liabilities resulting from or arising out of the ET-Plus® System, a highway guardrail end-terminal system (the “ET Plus”). Consequently, results from discontinued operations include certain legal expenses that are directly attributable to the highway products business. Similar expenses related to these retained obligations that may be incurred in the future will likewise be reported in discontinued operations. For the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, we recorded expenses related to these obligations of $2.4 million ($1.8 million, net of income taxes) and $2.5 million ($1.9 million, net of income taxes), respectively. These expenses are included in loss from discontinued operations, net of income taxes in our Consolidated Statements of Operations. See Note 15 of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for further information regarding obligations retained in connection with the THP sale.
New Accounting Pronouncements, Policy [Policy Text Block]
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
Not Yet Adopted
ASU 2024-03 – In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU No. 2024-03, "Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses," which improves financial reporting and responds to investor input by requiring public companies to disclose additional information about certain expenses in the notes to the consolidated financial statements. ASU 2024-03 requires disclosures, on an annual and interim basis, of the amounts of purchases of inventory, employee compensation, depreciation, and intangible asset amortization included in each relevant expense category; a qualitative description of amounts remaining that are not separately disaggregated quantitatively; and the amount of selling expenses and, in annual reporting periods, the definition of selling expenses. ASU 2024-03 is effective for public companies during annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026 on a prospective basis, with an option for retrospective application. Early adoption is permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact ASU 2024-03 will have on our financial statement disclosures.
ASU 2025-06 – In September 2025, the FASB issued ASU No. 2025-06, "Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Internal-Use Software," which modernizes the accounting for internal-use software costs by removing all references to prescriptive and sequential software development stages. Under this guidance, capitalization of eligible costs begins when management has authorized and committed to funding the software project and it is probable the project will be completed and the software will be used for the function intended. ASU 2025-06 is effective for public companies during the annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027 using a prospective approach, modified transition approach for in-process projects, or a retrospective approach. Early adoption is permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact ASU 2025-06 will have on our Consolidated Financial Statements.
