Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract] | |
Basis of Presentation | BASIS OF PRESENTATION These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”), under the rules and regulations of the United States (“U.S.”) Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), and on a basis substantially consistent with the audited consolidated financial statements of Post Holdings, Inc. (herein referred to as “Post,” “the Company,” “us,” “our” or “we,” and unless otherwise stated or context otherwise indicates, all such references herein mean Post Holdings, Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries) as of and for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2020. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with such audited consolidated financial statements, which are included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2020, filed with the SEC on November 20, 2020. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments and accruals) that management considers necessary for a fair statement of the Company’s results of operations, comprehensive income, financial condition, cash flows and shareholders’ equity for the interim periods presented. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of the results for any other interim period or for the entire fiscal year. The Company completed its acquisitions of the Egg Beaters brand (“Egg Beaters”) and the Peter Pan nut butter brand (“Peter Pan”) on May 27, 2021 and January 25, 2021, respectively. The quarter close date for both Egg Beaters and Peter Pan was June 27, 2021. As the amounts associated with the additional three days are immaterial, results of these entities have not been adjusted to conform with Post’s fiscal calendar. |

Equity Method Investments and Joint Ventures [Abstract] | |
Noncontrolling Interests, Equity Interests and Related Party Transactions | NONCONTROLLING INTERESTS, EQUITY INTERESTS AND RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS Post Holdings Partnering Corporation On May 28, 2021, the Company and Post Holdings Partnering Corporation, a newly formed special purpose acquisition company incorporated as a Delaware corporation (“PHPC”), consummated the initial public offering of 30.0 units of PHPC (the “PHPC Units”). On June 3, 2021, PHPC issued an additional 4.5 PHPC Units pursuant to the underwriters’ exercise in full of their over-allotment option. The term “PHPC IPO” as used herein generally refers to the consummation of the initial public offering on May 28, 2021 and the underwriters’ exercise in full of their over-allotment option on June 3, 2021. Each PHPC Unit consists of one share of Series A common stock of PHPC, par value $0.0001 per share (“PHPC Series A Common Stock”), and one-third of one redeemable warrant of PHPC, each whole warrant entitling the holder thereof to purchase one share of PHPC Series A Common Stock at an exercise price of $11.50 per share (the “PHPC Warrants”). The PHPC Units were sold at a price of $10.00 per PHPC Unit, generating gross proceeds to PHPC of $345.0. PHPC Sponsor, LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (“PHPC Sponsor”), purchased 4.0 of the 30.0 PHPC Units in the initial public offering on May 28, 2021 for $40.0. The PHPC Units began trading on the New York Stock Exchange (the “NYSE”) under the ticker symbol “PSPC.U” on May 26, 2021. As of July 16, 2021, holders of the PHPC Units may elect to separately trade their shares of PHPC Series A Common Stock and PHPC Warrants, with the shares of PHPC Series A Common Stock and the PHPC Warrants listed on the NYSE under the symbols “PSPC” and “PSPC WS”, respectively. Under the terms of the PHPC IPO, PHPC is required to consummate a partnering transaction within 24 months (or 27 months under certain circumstances) of the completion of the PHPC IPO. Substantially concurrently with the closing of the initial public offering on May 28, 2021, PHPC completed the private sale of 1.0 units of PHPC (the “PHPC Private Placement Units”), at a purchase price of $10.00 per PHPC Private Placement Unit, to PHPC Sponsor, and in connection with the underwriters’ exercise in full of their option to purchase additional PHPC Units, PHPC Sponsor purchased an additional 0.1 PHPC Private Placement Units, generating proceeds to PHPC of $10.9 (the “PHPC Private Placement”). The PHPC Private Placement Units sold in the PHPC Private Placement are identical to the PHPC Units sold in the PHPC IPO, except that, with respect to the warrants underlying the PHPC Private Placement Units (the “PHPC Private Placement Warrants”) that are held by PHPC Sponsor or its permitted transferees, such PHPC Private Placement Warrants (i) may be exercised for cash or on a cashless basis, (ii) are not subject to being called for redemption (except in certain circumstances when the PHPC Warrants are called for redemption and a certain price per share of PHPC Series A Common Stock threshold is met) and (iii) subject to certain limited exceptions, will be subject to transfer restrictions until 30 days following the consummation of PHPC’s partnering transaction. If the PHPC Private Placement Warrants are held by holders other than PHPC Sponsor or its permitted transferees, the PHPC Private Placement Warrants will be redeemable by PHPC in all redemption scenarios and exercisable by holders on the same basis as the PHPC Warrants. In addition, the Company, through PHPC Sponsor’s ownership of 8.6 shares of Series F common stock of PHPC, par value $0.0001 per share, has certain governance rights in PHPC. In connection with the completion of the initial public offering on May 28, 2021, PHPC also entered into a forward purchase agreement with PHPC Sponsor (the “Forward Purchase Agreement”), providing for the purchase by PHPC Sponsor, at the election of PHPC, of up to 10.0 units of PHPC (the “PHPC Forward Purchase Units”), subject to the terms and conditions of the Forward Purchase Agreement, with each PHPC Forward Purchase Unit consisting of one share of PHPC’s Series B common stock, par value of $0.0001 per share, and one-third of one warrant to purchase one share of PHPC Series A Common Stock, for a purchase price of $10.00 per PHPC Forward Purchase Unit, in an aggregate amount of up to $100.0 in a private placement to occur concurrently with the closing of PHPC’s partnering transaction. In determining the accounting treatment of the Company’s equity interest in PHPC, management concluded that PHPC is a variable interest entity (“VIE”) as defined by Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 810, “Consolidation.” A VIE is an entity in which equity investors at risk lack the characteristics of a controlling financial interest. VIEs are consolidated by the primary beneficiary, the party who has both the power to direct the activities of a VIE that most significantly impact the entity’s economic performance, as well as the obligation to absorb losses of the entity or the right to receive benefits from the entity that could potentially be significant to the entity. PHPC Sponsor is the primary beneficiary of PHPC as it has, through its equity interest, the right to receive benefits or the obligation to absorb losses from PHPC, as well as the power to direct a majority of the activities that significantly impact PHPC’s economic performance, including target identification. As such, PHPC is fully consolidated into the Company’s financial statements. Pr oceeds of $345.0 were deposited in a trust account established for the benefit of PHPC’s public stockholders consisting of certain proceeds from the PHPC IPO and certain proceeds from the PHPC Private Placement, net of underwriters’ discounts and commissions and other costs and expenses. A minimum balance of $345.0, representing the number of PHPC Units sold at the offering price of $10.00 per PHPC Unit , is required by the underwriting agreement to be maintained in the trust account. These pr oceeds will be invested only in U.S. treasury securities. In connection with the trust account, the Company reported “Investments held in trust” of $345.0 on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet at June 30, 2021 and “Investment of subsidiary initial public offering proceeds into trust account” on the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows for the nine months ended June 30, 2021. The public stockholders’ ownership of PHPC equity represents a noncontrolling interest (“NCI”) to the Company, which is classified outside of permanent shareholders’ equity as the PHPC Series A Common Stock is redeemable at the option of the public stockholders in certain circumstances. The carrying amount of the redeemable NCI is equal to the greater of (i) the initial carrying amount, increased or decreased for the redeemable NCI’s share of PHPC’s net income or loss, other comprehensive income or loss (“OCI”) and distributions or (ii) the redemption value. The public stockholders of PHPC Series A Common Stock will be entitled in certain circumstances to redeem their shares of PHPC Series A Common Stock for a pro rata portion of the amount in the trust account at $10.00 per share of PHPC Series A Common Stock held, plus any pro rata interest earned on the funds held in the trust account and not previously released to PHPC to pay income taxes. As of June 30, 2021, the carrying amount of the redeemable NCI was recorded at its redemption value of $305.0. Remeasurements to the redemption value of the redeemable NCI are recognized as a deemed dividend and are recorded to “Retained earnings” on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet. In connection with the PHPC IPO, PHPC incurred offering costs of $17.9, of which $16.9 was recorded to the redeemable NCI and $1.0 was reported in “Selling, general and administrative expenses” in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2021. Of the $17.9 offering costs incurred, $10.7 were deferred underwriting commissions that will become payable to the underwriters solely in the event that PHPC completes a partnering transaction and were included in “Other liabilities” on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet at June 30, 2021. Additionally, the initial valuation of the PHPC Warrants of $16.9 was also recorded to redeemable NCI. For additional information on the financial statement impacts of the PHPC Warrants, see Notes 13 and 14. As of June 30, 2021, the Company beneficially owned 31.0% of the equity of PHPC and the net income and net assets of PHPC were consolidated within the Company’s financial statements. The remaining 69.0% of the consolidated net income and net assets of PHPC, representing the percentage of economic interest in PHPC held by the public stockholders of PHPC through their ownership of PHPC equity, were allocated to redeemable NCI. All transactions between PHPC and PHPC Sponsor, as well as related financial statement impacts, eliminate in consolidation.

BellRing On October 21, 2019, BellRing Brands, Inc. (“BellRing”), a subsidiary of the Company, closed its initial public offering (the “BellRing IPO”) of 39.4 shares of its Class A common stock, $0.01 par value per share (the “BellRing Class A Common Stock”). BellRing received net proceeds from the BellRing IPO of $524.4, after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions. As a result of the BellRing IPO and certain other transactions completed in connection with the BellRing IPO, BellRing became a publicly-traded company with the BellRing Class A Common Stock being traded on the NYSE under the ticker symbol “BRBR” and the holding company of BellRing Brands, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“BellRing LLC”), owning 28.8% of BellRing LLC’s non-voting membership units (the “BellRing LLC units”), with Post owning 71.2% of the BellRing LLC units and one share of BellRing’s Class B common stock, $0.01 par value per share (the “BellRing Class B Common Stock” and, collectively with the BellRing Class A Common Stock, the “BellRing Common Stock”). The BellRing Class B Common Stock has voting rights but no rights to dividends or other economic rights. For so long as Post or its affiliates (other than BellRing and its subsidiaries) directly own more than 50% of the BellRing LLC units, the BellRing Class B Common Stock represents 67% of the combined voting power of the BellRing Common Stock, which provides the Company control over BellRing’s board of directors and results in the full consolidation of BellRing and its subsidiaries into the Company’s financial statements. The BellRing LLC units held by the Company include a redemption feature that allows the Company to, at BellRing LLC’s option (as determined by its board of managers), redeem BellRing LLC units for either (i) BellRing Class A Common Stock of BellRing or (ii) cash equal to the market value of the BellRing Class A Common Stock at the time of redemption. BellRing LLC is the holding company for the Company’s historical active nutrition business. The term “BellRing” as used herein generally refers to BellRing Brands, Inc.; however, in discussions related to debt facilities, the term “BellRing” refers to BellRing Brands, LLC. BellRing and its subsidiaries are reported herein as the BellRing Brands segment. In the event the Company (other than BellRing and its subsidiaries) holds 50% or less of the BellRing LLC units, the holder of the share of BellRing Class B Common Stock will be entitled to a number of votes equal to the number of BellRing LLC units held by all persons other than BellRing and its subsidiaries. In such situation, the Company, as the holder of the share of BellRing Class B Common Stock, will only be entitled to cast a number of votes equal to the number of BellRing LLC units held by the Company (other than BellRing and its subsidiaries). Also, in such situation, if any BellRing LLC units are held by persons other than the Company, then the Company, as the holder of the share of BellRing Class B Common Stock, will cast the remainder of votes to which the share of BellRing Class B Common Stock is entitled only in accordance with the instructions and directions from such other holders of the BellRing LLC units. As of June 30, 2021 and September 30, 2020, the Company (other than BellRing and its subsidiaries) owned 71.2% of the BellRing LLC units and the net income and net assets of BellRing and its subsidiaries were consolidated within the Company’s financial statements, and the remaining 28.8% of the consolidated net income and net assets of BellRing and its subsidiaries, representing the percentage of economic interest in BellRing LLC held by BellRing (and therefore indirectly held by the public stockholders of BellRing through their ownership of the BellRing Class A Common Stock), were allocated to NCI.

(“8th Avenue”) that is accounted for using the equity method. In determining the accounting treatment of the common equity interest, management concluded that 8th Avenue was not a variable interest entity as defined by ASC Topic 810 and, as such, was evaluated under the voting interest model. Based on the terms of 8th Avenue’s governing documents, management determined that the Company does not have a controlling voting interest in 8th Avenue due to substantive participating rights held by third parties associated with the governance of 8th Avenue. However, Post does retain significant influence, and therefore, the use of the equity method of accounting is required. The following table presents the calculation of the Company’s equity method loss attributable to 8th Avenue: Three Months Ended Nine Months Ended 2021 2020 2021 2020 8th Avenue’s net loss available to 8th Avenue’s common shareholders $ (16.3) $ (4.3) $ (35.0) $ (28.2) 60.5 % 60.5 % 60.5 % 60.5 % Equity method loss available to Post $ (9.9) $ (2.6) $ (21.2) $ (17.1) Less: Amortization of basis difference, net of tax (a) 1.7 1.7 5.1 5.1 Equity method loss, net of tax $ (11.6) $ (4.3) $ (26.3) $ (22.2) (a) The Company adjusted the historical basis of 8th Avenue’s assets and liabilities to fair value and recognized a basis difference of $70.3. The basis difference related to property, plant and equipment and other intangible assets is being amortized over the weighted average useful lives of the assets. At June 30, 2021 and September 30, 2020, the remaining basis difference to be amortized was $49.5 and $54.6, respectively. Summarized financial information of 8th Avenue is presented in the following table. Three Months Ended Nine Months Ended 2021 2020 2021 2020 Net sales $ 214.8 $ 243.7 $ 664.5 $ 695.2 Gross profit $ 31.5 $ 45.0 $ 101.2 $ 124.6 Net (loss) earnings $ (7.1) $ 3.9 $ (8.2) $ (4.2) Less: Preferred stock dividend 9.2 8.2 26.8 24.0 Net Loss Available to 8th Avenue Common Shareholders $ (16.3) $ (4.3) $ (35.0) $ (28.2) The Company provides services to 8th Avenue under a master services agreement (the “MSA”), as well as certain advisory services for a fee.

The current receivables, current payables and long-term liability, which related to the separation of 8th Avenue from the Company, MSA fees, pass through charges owed by 8th Avenue to the Company and related party sales and purchases, were included in “Receivables, net,” “Accounts payable” and “Other liabilities,” respectively, on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Alpen and Weetabix East Africa The Company holds an equity interest in two legal entities, Alpen Food Company South Africa (Pty) Limited (“Alpen”) and Weetabix East Africa Limited (“Weetabix East Africa”). Alpen is a South African-based company that produces ready-to-eat (“RTE”) cereal and muesli.

Business Combinations [Abstract] | |
Business Combinations | BUSINESS COMBINATIONS The Company accounts for acquisitions using the acquisition method of accounting, whereby the results of operations are included in the financial statements from the date of acquisition. The purchase price is allocated to acquired assets and assumed liabilities based on their estimated fair values at the date of acquisition. Any excess of the purchase price over the estimated fair values of the identifiable net assets acquired is recorded as goodwill. Any excess of the estimated fair values of the identifiable net assets over the purchase price is recorded as a gain on bargain purchase. Goodwill represents the value the Company expects to achieve through the implementation of operational synergies, the expansion of the business into new or growing segments of the industry and the addition of new employees. Fiscal 2021 On June 1, 2021, the Company completed its acquisition of the private label RTE cereal business from TreeHouse Foods, Inc.

Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract] | |
Income Taxes | INCOME TAXES The effective income tax rate was (678.6)% and 30.6% for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2021, respectively. The effective income tax rates differed significantly from the statutory rates in both current year periods, primarily due to enacted tax law changes in the United Kingdom (the “U.K.”), which included a provision to increase the U.K.’s corporate income tax rate from 19% to 25%, effective April 1, 2023. During the three and nine months ended June 30, 2021, the Company remeasured its existing deferred tax assets and liabilities considering the 25% U.K. corporate income tax rate for future periods and recorded tax expense of $39.3. Other changes made to the U.K.’s tax law did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements during the three or nine months ended June 30, 2021. The effective income tax rate was 10.1% and 42.7% for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2020, respectively. The effective income tax rates differed significantly from the statutory rates in both prior year periods, primarily due to a rate differential on foreign income and net discrete tax benefits of $3.9 and $8.7 in the three and nine months ended June 30, 2020, respectively, which largely related to the Company’s equity method investment in 8th Avenue. |

Earnings Per Share [Abstract] | |
(Loss) Earnings per Share | (LOSS) EARNINGS PER SHAREBasic (loss) earnings per share is based on the average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted (loss) earnings per share is based on the average number of shares used for the basic (loss) earnings per share calculation, adjusted for the dilutive effect of stock options, stock appreciation rights and restricted stock units using the “treasury stock” method. Remeasurements to the redemption value of the redeemable NCI are recognized as a deemed dividend (see Note 3). As allowed for within ASC Topic 480, “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity,” the Company has made an election to treat the portion of the deemed dividend that exceeds fair value as a reduction of income available to common shareholders for basic and diluted (loss) earnings per share. In addition, “Net (loss) earnings for diluted (loss) earnings per share” in the table below has been adjusted for the Company’s share of BellRing’s consolidated net earnings for diluted earnings per share, to the extent it is dilutive. The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted (loss) earnings per share.

Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities Disclosure [Abstract] | |
Derivative Financial Instruments and Hedging | DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS AND HEDGING In the ordinary course of business, the Company is exposed to commodity price risks relating to the purchases of raw materials and supplies, interest rate risks relating to variable rate debt and foreign currency exchange rate risks. The Company utilizes derivative financial instruments, including (but not limited to) futures contracts, option contracts, forward contracts and swaps, to manage certain of these exposures by hedging when it is practical to do so. The Company does not hold or issue financial instruments for speculative or trading purposes. At June 30, 2021, the Company’s derivative instruments, none of which were designated as hedging instruments under ASC Topic 815, “Derivatives and Hedging,” consisted of: • commodity and energy futures, swaps and option contracts, which relate to inputs that generally will be utilized within the next two years; • foreign currency forward contracts maturing in July 2021 that have the effect of hedging currency fluctuations between the U.S. Dollar and the Pound Sterling; • interest rate swaps that have the effect of hedging interest payments on debt expected to be issued but not yet priced, including: ◦ a pay-fixed, receive-variable interest rate swap maturing in May 2024 that requires monthly settlements; ◦ rate-lock interest rate swaps that require lump sum settlements with the first settlement occurring in July 2021 and th e last in July 2026; and ◦ interest rate swaps that mature in July 2021 and give the Company the option of pay-variable, receive-fixed lump sum settlements; • pay-fixed, receive-variable interest rate swaps maturing in December 2022 that require monthly settlements and have the effect of hedging forecasted interest payments on BellRing’s variable rate debt; and • the PHPC Warrants (see Note 3). Interest rate swaps In the nine months ended June 30, 2021, the Company restructured four of its rate-lock interest rate swap contracts, which contain non-cash, off-market financing elements. There were no cash settlements paid or received in connection with these restructurings. In the first quarter of fiscal 2020, contemporaneously with the repayment of its term loan, the Company changed the designation of one of its interest rate swap contracts from a cash flow hedge to a non-designated hedging instrument. In connection with the de-designation, the Company reclassified losses previously recorded in accumulated OCI of $7.2 to “Interest expense, net” in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations for the nine months ended June 30, 2020. As of April 1, 2020, the Company changed the designation of its interest rate swap contracts that are used as hedges of forecasted interest payments on BellRing’s variable rate debt from cash flow hedges to non-designated hedging instruments as the swaps were no longer effective (as defined by ASC Topic 815). In connection with the de-designation, the Company started reclassifying losses previously recorded in accumulated OCI to “Interest expense, net” in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations on a straight-line basis over the term of BellRing’s variable rate debt. Mark-to-market adjustments related to these swaps will also be included in “Interest expense, net” in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. At June 30, 2021 and September 30, 2020, the remaining net loss before taxes to be amortized was $7.7 and $9.4, respectively. Cross-currency swaps The Company terminated $448.7 notional value of its cross-currency swap contracts that were designated as hedging instruments during the second quarter of fiscal 2020. In connection with this termination, the Company received cash proceeds of $50.3 during the nine months ended June 30, 2020, which was recorded in accumulated OCI. Reclassification of amounts recorded in accumulated OCI into earnings will only occur in the event U.K.-based operations are substantially liquidated.

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract] | |
Fair Value Measurements | FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS The following table represents the Company’s assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis and the basis for that measurement according to the levels in the fair value hierarchy in ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurement.” June 30, 2021 September 30, 2020 Total Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Total Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Assets: Deferred compensation investments $ 15.7 $ 15.7 $ — $ — $ 12.8 $ 12.8 $ — $ — Derivative assets 68.1 — 68.1 — 14.7 — 14.7 — Equity securities — — — — 27.9 27.9 — — $ 83.8 $ 15.7 $ 68.1 $ — $ 55.4 $ 40.7 $ 14.7 $ — Liabilities: Deferred compensation liabilities $ 35.7 $ — $ 35.7 $ — $ 29.7 $ — $ 29.7 $ — Derivative liabilities 422.8 — 404.4 18.4 543.1 — 543.1 — $ 458.5 $ — $ 440.1 $ 18.4 $ 572.8 $ — $ 572.8 $ — The deferred compensation investments are primarily invested in mutual funds, and the fair value is measured using the market approach. These investments are in the same funds, or funds that employ a similar investment strategy, and are purchased in substantially the same amounts, as the participants’ selected investment options (excluding Post common stock equivalents), which represent the underlying liabilities to participants in the Company’s deferred compensation plans. Deferred compensation liabilities are recorded at amounts due to participants in cash, based on the fair value of participants’ selected investment options (excluding certain Post common stock equivalents to be distributed in shares) using the market approach. The Company utilizes the income approach to measure fair value for its commodity and energy derivatives. The income approach uses pricing models that rely on market observable inputs such as yield curves and forward prices. Foreign exchange contracts are valued using the spot rate less the forward rate multiplied by the notional amount. The Company’s calculation of the fair value of interest rate swaps is derived from a discounted cash flow analysis based on the terms of the contract and the interest rate curve. Refer to Note 13 for the classification of changes in fair value of derivative assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis within the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. Investments held in trust are invested in a fund consisting entirely of U.S. treasury securities (see Note 3). The fund is valued at net asset value per share (“NAV”), and as such, in accordance with ASC Topic 820-10, the investments have not been classified in the fair value hierarchy. Investments held in trust are reported at fair value on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet (see Note 3). The fair value of liabilities associated with the PHPC Warrants was measured on recurring basis using the Monte Carlo Option Pricing Method. The fair value measurement was categorized as Level 3, as the fair values utilize significant unobservable inputs. For additional information on the PHPC Warrants, see Notes 3 and 13. The following table summarizes the Level 3 activity measured on a recurring basis. Balance, September 30, 2020 $ — Initial valuation of PHPC Warrants 16.9 Mark-to-market loss on PHPC Warrants 1.5 Balance, June 30, 2021 $ 18.4 The fair value of each warrant was estimated on the date of grant using the Monte Carlo Option Pricing Method. Inherent in the Monte Carlo Option Pricing Method are assumptions related to expected stock-price volatility, expected life, risk-free interest rate and dividend yield. PHPC estimates the volatility of the PHPC Warrants based on implied volatility from historical volatility of select peer companies’ common stock that matches the expected remaining life of the PHPC Warrants. The risk-free interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury zero-coupon yield curve for a maturity similar to the expected remaining life of the PHPC Warrants. The expected life of the PHPC Warrants is assumed to be equivalent to their remaining contractual term. PHPC anticipates the dividend rate will remain at zero. The following table presents the assumptions used for the initial measurement of the PHPC Warrants on May 28, 2021 and to remeasure the fair value of outstanding PHPC Warrant liabilities as of June 30, 2021. May 28, June 30, Expected term (in years) 5.0 5.0 Exercise price $11.50 $11.50 Stock price $9.45 $9.79 Expected stock price volatility 27.0% 28.0% Risk-free interest rate 1.21% 1.20% Expected dividends 0% 0% Fair value (per PHPC Warrant) $1.66 $1.81 The Company uses the market approach to measure the fair value of its equity securities. The Company’s financial assets and liabilities also include cash and cash equivalents, receivables and accounts payable for which the carrying value approximates fair value due to their short maturities (less than 12 months). The Company does not record its current portion of long-term debt and long-term debt at fair value on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The fair values of any outstanding borrowings under the municipal bond and the BellRing Revolving Credit Facility (as defined in Note 17) as of June 30, 2021 and September 30, 2020 approximated their carrying values. Based on current market rates, the fair value of the Company’s debt, excluding any outstanding borrowings under the municipal bond and the BellRing Revolving Credit Facility (both of which are categorized as Level 2), was $7,257.9 and $7,277.8 as of June 30, 2021 and September 30, 2020, respectively. Certain assets and liabilities, including property, plant and equipment, goodwill and other intangible assets and assets held for sale, are measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis. At September 30, 2020, the Company had land and buildings classified as assets held for sale related to the closures of the Company’s Clinton Plant, Asheboro Facility and Corby Facility. The Company sold the Asheboro Facility, the Corby Facility and a portion of the Clinton Plant in November 2020 and the remaining portion of the Clinton Plant in February 2021. The Clinton Plant and Asheboro Facility were both reported in the Post Consumer Brands segment, and the Corby Facility was reported in the Weetabix segment (see Note 20). For additional information on assets held for sale, see Note 6. The fair value of assets held for sale was measured on a non-recurring basis based on the lower of book value or third party valuations. When applicable, the fair value is adjusted to reflect an offer to purchase the assets. The fair value measurement was categorized as Level 3, as the fair values utilize significant unobservable inputs. The following table summarizes the Level 3 activity.

Legal Proceedings [Abstract] | |
Commitments and Contingencies | COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES Legal Proceedings Antitrust Claims In late 2008 and early 2009, approximately 22 class action lawsuits were filed in various federal courts against Michael Foods, Inc. (“MFI”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, and approximately 20 other defendants (producers of shell eggs and egg products and egg industry organizations), alleging violations of federal and state antitrust laws in connection with the production and sale of shell eggs and egg products, and seeking unspecified damages. All cases were transferred to the Eastern District of Pennsylvania for coordinated and/or consolidated pretrial proceedings. The cases involved three plaintiff groups: (i) a nationwide class of direct purchasers of shell eggs (the “direct purchaser class”); (ii) individual companies (primarily large grocery chains and food companies that purchase considerable quantities of eggs) that opted out of various settlements and filed their own complaints related to their purchases of shell eggs and egg products (the “opt-out plaintiffs”); and (iii) indirect purchasers of shell eggs (the “indirect purchaser plaintiffs”). Resolution of claims: To date, MFI has resolved the following claims, including all class claims: (i) in December 2016, MFI settled all claims asserted against it by the direct purchaser class for a payment of $75.0, which was approved by the district court in December 2017; (ii) in January 2017, MFI settled all claims asserted against it by opt-out plaintiffs related to shell egg purchases on confidential terms; (iii) in June 2018, MFI settled all claims asserted against it by indirect purchaser plaintiffs on confidential terms; and (iv) between June 2019 and September 2019, MFI individually settled on confidential terms egg product opt-out claims asserted against it by four separate opt-out plaintiffs. MFI has at all times denied liability in this matter, and no settlement contains any admission of liability by MFI. Remaining portion of the cases: MFI remains a defendant only with respect to claims that seek damages based on purchases of egg products by three opt-out plaintiffs. The district court had granted summary judgment precluding any claims for egg products purchases by such opt-out plaintiffs, but the Third Circuit Court of Appeals reversed and remanded these claims for further pre-trial proceedings. Defendants filed a second motion for summary judgment seeking dismissal of the claims, which was denied in June 2019. The remaining opt-out plaintiffs have not yet been assigned trial dates. Although the likelihood of a material adverse outcome in the egg antitrust litigation has been significantly reduced as a result of the MFI settlements described above, the remaining portion of the cases could still result in a material adverse outcome. No expense was recorded in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations related to these matters for the three or nine months ended June 30, 2021 or 2020. At both June 30, 2021 and September 30, 2020, the Company had $3.5 accrued for this matter, which was included in “Other current liabilities” on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The Company records reserves for litigation losses in accordance with ASC Topic 450, “Contingencies.” Under ASC Topic 450, a loss contingency is recorded if a loss is probable and can be reasonably estimated. The Company records probable loss contingencies based on the best estimate of the loss. If a range of loss can be reasonably estimated, but no single amount within the range appears to be a better estimate than any other amount within the range, the minimum amount in the range is accrued. These estimates are often initially developed earlier than when the ultimate loss is known, and the estimates are adjusted if additional information becomes known. Although the Company believes its accruals for this matter are appropriate, the final amounts required to resolve such matter could differ materially from recorded estimates and the Company’s consolidated financial condition, results of operations and cash flows could be materially affected. Under current law, any settlement paid, including the settlements with the direct purchaser plaintiffs, the opt-out plaintiffs and the indirect purchaser plaintiffs, is deductible for federal income tax purposes. Other The Company is subject to various other legal proceedings and actions arising in the normal course of business. In the opinion of management, based upon the information presently known, the ultimate liability, if any, arising from such pending legal proceedings, as well as from asserted legal claims and known potential legal claims which are likely to be asserted, taking into account established accruals for estimated liabilities (if any), are not expected to be material individually or in the aggregate to the consolidated financial condition, results of operations or cash flows of the Company. In addition, although it is difficult to estimate the potential financial impact of actions regarding expenditures for compliance with regulatory matters, in the opinion of management, based upon the information currently available, the ultimate liability arising from such compliance matters is not expected to be material to the consolidated financial condition, results of operations or cash flows of the Company. |

Leases [Abstract] | |
Leases | LEASES The Company leases office space, certain warehouses and equipment primarily through operating lease agreements. The Company has no material finance lease agreements. Leases have remaining terms which range from less than 1 year to 56 years and most leases provide the Company with the option to exercise one or more renewal terms. The weighted average remaining lease term of the Company’s operating leases was approximately 9 years and 7 years as of June 30, 2021 and September 30, 2020, respectively, and the weighted average incremental borrowing rate was 4.64% and 4.40% at June 30, 2021 and September 30, 2020, respectively. Right-of-use (“ROU”) assets are recorded as “Other assets” and lease liabilities are recorded as “Other current liabilities” and “Other liabilities” on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Operating lease expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term and is included in either “Cost of goods sold” or “Selling, general and administrative expenses” in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. Costs associated with finance leases and lease income do not have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.

Credit Agreement On March 18, 2020, the Company entered into a second amended and restated credit agreement (the “Credit Agreement”). The Credit Agreement provides for a revolving credit facility in an aggregate principal amount of $750.0 (the “Revolving Credit Facility”), with the commitments thereunder to be made available to the Company in U.S. Dollars, Canadian Dollars, Euros or Pounds Sterling. Letters of credit are available under the Credit Agreement in an aggregate amount of up to $75.0 . The Revolving Credit Facility has outstanding letters of cre dit of $19.2, which reduced the available borrowing capacity under the Revolving Credit Facility to $730.8 at June 30, 2021. Any outstanding amounts under the Revolving Credit Facility must be repaid on or before March 18, 2025. The Credit Agreement provides for potential incremental revolving and term facilities at the request of the Company and at the discretion of the lenders or other persons providing such incremental facilities, in each case on terms to be determined, and also permits the Company to incur other secured or unsecured debt, in all cases subject to conditions and limitations on the amount as specified in the Credit Agreement. The Credit Agreement permits the Company to designate certain of its subsidiaries as unrestricted subsidiaries and once so designated, permits the disposition of (and authorizes the release of liens on) the assets of, and the equity interests in, such unrestricted subsidiaries and permits the release of such unrestricted subsidiaries as guarantors under the Credit Agreement. The Company’s obligations under the Credit Agreement are unconditionally guaranteed by its existing and subsequently acquired or organized domestic subsidiaries (other than immaterial subsidiaries, certain excluded subsidiaries and subsidiaries the Company designates as unrestricted subsidiaries, which include 8th Avenue and its subsidiaries, BellRing Brands, Inc. and its subsidiaries, PHPC and PHPC Sponsor) and are secured by security interests in substantially all of the Company’s assets and the assets of its subsidiary guarantors, but excluding, in each case, real property. Borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility bear interest, at the option of the Company, at an annual rate equal to either (a) the Eurodollar rate or (b) the base rate determined by reference to the highest of (i) the prime rate, (ii) the federal funds rate plus 0.50% per annum and (iii) the one-month Eurodollar rate plus 1.00% per annum, in each case plus an applicable margin, which initially were 1.50% for Eurodollar rate-based loans and 0.50% for base rate-based loans, and thereafter, will be determined by reference to the secured net leverage ratio (as defined in the Credit Agreement), with the applicable margin for Eurodollar rate loans and base rate loans being (i) 2.00% and 1.00%, respectively, if the secured net leverage ratio is greater than or equal to 3.00:1.00, (ii) 1.75% and 0.75%, respectively, if the secured net leverage ratio is less than 3.00:1.00 and greater than or equal to 1.50:1.00 or (iii) 1.50% and 0.50%, respectively, if the secured net leverage ratio is less than 1.50:1.00. Commitment fees on the daily unused amount of commitments under the Revolving Credit Facility initially accrued at the rate of 0.25%, and thereafter, will accrue at a rate of 0.375% if the Company’s secured net leverage ratio is greater than 3.00:1.00, and will accrue at a rate of 0.25% if the Company’s secured net leverage ratio is less than or equal to 3.00:1.00. The Credit Agreement provides for customary events of default, including material breach of representations and warranties, failure to make required payments, failure to comply with certain agreements or covenants, failure to pay or default under certain other indebtedness in excess of $100.0, certain events of bankruptcy and insolvency, inability to pay debts, the occurrence of one or more unstayed or undischarged judgments in excess of $100.0, attachments issued against all or any material part of the Company’s property, certain events under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (“ERISA”), a change of control (as defined in the Credit Agreement), the invalidity of any loan document and the failure of the collateral documents to create a valid and perfected first priority lien (subject to certain permitted liens). Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an event of default, the maturity of the loans under the Credit Agreement may accelerate and the agent and lenders under the Credit Agreement may exercise other rights and remedies available at law or under the loan documents, including with respect to the collateral and guarantees of the Company’s obligations under the Credit Agreement. Municipal Bond In connection with the ongoing construction of a filtration system at the Company’s potato plant in Chaska, Minnesota, the Company continues to incur debt that guarantees the repayment of certain industrial revenue bonds used to finance the construction of the project. Principal payments are due annually on March 1, and interest payments are due semi-annually each March 1 and September 1. The debt matures on March 1, 2028. BellRing’s Credit Agreement and Senior Debt Facilities On October 21, 2019, BellRing entered into a credit agreement (as subsequently amended, the “BellRing Credit Agreement”), which provides for a term B loan facility in an aggregate principal amount of $700.0 (the “BellRing Term B Facility”) and a revolving credit facility in an aggregate principal amount of $200.0 (the “BellRing Revolving Credit Facility”), with the commitments under the BellRing Revolving Credit Facility to be made available to BellRing in U.S. Dollars, Euros or Pounds Sterling. Letters of credit are available under the BellRing Credit Agreement in an aggregate amount of up to $20.0. Any outstanding amounts under the BellRing Revolving Credit Facility and BellRing Term B Facility must be repaid on or before October 21, 2024. On February 26, 2021, BellRing entered into a second amendment to the BellRing Credit Agreement (the “BellRing Amendment”). The BellRing Amendment provided for the refinancing of the BellRing Term B Facility on substantially the same terms as in effect prior to the BellRing Amendment, except that it (i) reduced the interest rate margin by 100 basis points, resulting in (A) for Eurodollar rate loans, an interest rate of the Eurodollar rate plus a margin of 4.00% and (B) for base rate loans, an interest rate of the base rate plus a margin of 3.00%, (ii) reduced the floor for the Eurodollar rate to 0.75%, (iii) modified the BellRing Credit Agreement to address the anticipated unavailability of LIBOR as a reference interest rate and (iv) provided that if on or before August 26, 2021 BellRing repays the BellRing Term B Facility in whole or in part with the proceeds of new or replacement debt at a lower effective interest rate, or further amends the BellRing Credit Agreement to reduce the effective interest rate applicable to the BellRing Term B Facility, BellRing must pay a 1.00% premium on the amount repaid or subject to the interest rate reduction. In connection with the BellRing Amendment, BellRing paid debt refinancing fees of $0.1 and $1.6 in the three and nine months ended June 30, 2021, respectively, which were included in “Loss on extinguishment and refinancing of debt, net” in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. Subsequent to the BellRing Amendment, borrowings under the BellRing Term B Facility bear interest, at the option of BellRing, at an annual rate equal to either (a) the Eurodollar rate or (b) the base rate determined by reference to the greatest of (i) the prime rate, (ii) the federal funds effective rate plus 0.50% per annum and (iii) the one-month Eurodollar rate plus 1.00% per annum, in each case plus an applicable margin of 4.00% for Eurodollar rate-based loans and 3.00% for base rate-based loans. The BellRing Term B Facility requires quarterly scheduled amortization payments of $8.75, which began on March 31, 2020, with the balance to be paid at maturity on October 21, 2024. Interest was paid on each Interest Payment Date (as defined in the BellRing Credit Agreement) during each of the nine months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020. The BellRing Term B Facility contains customary mandatory prepayment provisions, including provisions for mandatory prepayment (a) from the net cash proceeds of certain asset sales and (b) of 75% of consolidated excess cash flow (as defined in the BellRing Credit Agreement) (which percentage will be reduced to 50% if the secured net leverage ratio (as defined in the BellRing Credit Agreement) is less than or equal to 3.35:1.00 as of a fiscal year end). During the nine months ended June 30, 2021, BellRing repaid $28.8 on the BellRing Term B Facility as a mandatory prepayment from fiscal 2020 excess cash flow, which was in addition to the scheduled amortization payments. The Company classified $79.5 related to the estimated mandatory prepayment of fiscal 2021 excess cash flow in “Current portion of long-term debt” on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet at June 30, 2021. BellRing may prepay the BellRing Term B Facility at its option without penalty or premium, except as provided in the BellRing Amendment. The interest rate on the BellRing Term B Facility was 4.75% and 6.00% as of June 30, 2021 and September 30, 2020, respectively. Borrowings under the BellRing Revolving Credit Facility bear interest, at the option of BellRing, at an annual rate equal to either the Eurodollar rate or the base rate (determined as described above) plus a margin, which initially was 4.25% for Eurodollar rate-based loans and 3.25% for base rate-based loans, and thereafter, will be determined by reference to the secured net leverage ratio, with the applicable margin for Eurodollar rate-based loans and base rate-based loans being (i) 4.25% and 3.25%, respectively, if the secured net leverage ratio is greater than or equal to 3.50:1.00, (ii) 4.00% and 3.00%, respectively, if the secured net leverage ratio is less than 3.50:1.00 and greater than or equal to 2.50:1.00 or (iii) 3.75% and 2.75%, respectively, if the secured net leverage ratio is less than 2.50:1.00. Facility fees on the daily unused amount of commitments under the BellRing Revolving Credit Facility initially accrued at the rate of 0.50% per annum, and thereafter, depending on BellRing’s secured net leverage ratio, will accrue at rates ranging from 0.25% to 0.50% per annum. There were no amounts drawn under the BellRing Revolving Credit Facility as of June 30, 2021. The interest rate on the drawn portion of the BellRing Revolving Credit Facility was 5.25% as of September 30, 2020. During the nine months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, BellRing borrowed $20.0 and $185.0, respectively, under the BellRing Revolving Credit Facility and repaid $50.0 and $130.0, respectively, on the BellRing Revolving Credit Facility. The available borrowing capacity under the BellRing Revolving Credit Facility was $200.0 and $170.0 as of June 30, 2021 and September 30, 2020, respectively. There were no outstanding letters of credit as of June 30, 2021 or September 30, 2020. The BellRing Credit Agreement provides for incremental revolving and term facilities, and also permits other secured or unsecured debt, if, among other conditions, certain financial ratios are met, as defined and specified in the BellRing Credit Agreement. The BellRing Credit Agreement provides for customary events of default, including material breach of representations and warranties, failure to make required payments, failure to comply with certain agreements or covenants, failure to pay or default under certain other material indebtedness, certain events of bankruptcy and insolvency, inability to pay debts, the occurrence of one or more unstayed or undischarged judgments in excess of $65.0, certain events under ERISA, the invalidity of any loan document, a change in control and the failure of the collateral documents to create a valid and perfected first priority lien. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an event of default, the maturity of the loans under the BellRing Credit Agreement may accelerate and the agent and lenders under the BellRing Credit Agreement may exercise other rights and remedies available at law or under the loan documents, including with respect to the collateral and guarantees of BellRing’s obligations under the BellRing Credit Agreement. Obligations under the BellRing Credit Agreement are unconditionally guaranteed by the existing and subsequently acquired or organized domestic subsidiaries of BellRing (other than immaterial subsidiaries, certain excluded subsidiaries and subsidiaries of BellRing it designates as unrestricted subsidiaries) and are secured by security interests in substantially all of the assets of BellRing and the assets of its subsidiary guarantors (other than real property), subject to limited exceptions. The Company and its subsidiaries (other than BellRing and certain of its subsidiaries) are not obligors or guarantors under the BellRing debt facilities.

An allocation has been made between the two segments for depreciation based on inventory costing. Amounts reported for Corporate in the table below include any amounts attributable to PHPC. Management evaluates each segment’s performance based on its segment profit, which for all segments excluding BellRing Brands is its earnings/loss before income taxes and equity method earnings/loss before impairment of property, goodwill and other intangible assets, facility closure related costs, restructuring expenses, gain/loss on assets and liabilities held for sale, gain/loss on sale of businesses and facilities, gain on/adjustment to bargain purchase, interest expense and other unallocated corporate income and expenses. Segment profit for BellRing Brands, as it is a publicly-traded company, is its operating profit. The following tables present information about the Company’s reportable segments.
