Accounting Policies [Abstract] | |
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies | 1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies Basis of Consolidation – LSB Industries, Inc. (“LSB”) and its subsidiaries (the “Company”, “we”, “us”, or “our”) are consolidated in the accompanying consolidated financial statements. LSB is a holding company with no significant operations or assets other than cash, cash equivalents, and investments in its subsidiaries. All material intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated. Certain prior period amounts reported in our consolidated financial statements and notes thereto have been reclassified to conform to current period presentation. Nature of Business – We are engaged in the manufacture and sale of chemical products. The chemical products we primarily manufacture, market and sell are ammonia, fertilizer grade AN (“HDAN”) and UAN for agricultural applications, high purity and commercial grade ammonia, high purity AN, sulfuric acids, concentrated, blended and regular nitric acid, mixed nitrating acids, carbon dioxide, and diesel exhaust fluid for industrial applications, and industrial grade AN (“LDAN”) and solutions for the mining industry. We manufacture and distribute our products in four facilities; three of which we own and are located in El Dorado, Arkansas (the “El Dorado Facility”); Cherokee, Alabama (the “Cherokee Facility”); and Pryor, Oklahoma (the “Pryor Facility”); and one of which we operate on behalf of Covestro LLC in Baytown, Texas (the “Baytown Facility”). Sales to customers include farmers, ranchers, fertilizer dealers and distributors primarily in the ranch land and grain production markets in the United States (“U.S.”); industrial users of acids throughout the U.S. and parts of Canada; and explosive manufacturers in the U.S. and parts of Mexico and Canada. Use of Estimates – The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Increase in Authorized Shares of Common Stock and a Stock Dividend – In September 2021, LSB held a Special Meeting of Stockholders (the “Special Meeting”). At the Special Meeting, our stockholders approved: • • • In August 2021, our Board of Directors (“Board”) declared a common stock dividend (“Special Dividend”) contingent on the closing of the Exchange Transaction (as defined below). As a result of the stockholders’ approval and the closing of the Exchange Transaction, such Special Dividend was effected in the form of a stock dividend of 0.3 shares of our common stock, for each outstanding share of common stock (exclusive of common stock held in the treasury and the common shares issued as part of the Exchange Transaction For financial reporting purposes, the Special Dividend is accounted for as a stock split in the form of a stock dividend. As a result, all share and per share information herein has been retroactively adjusted to reflect the Special Dividend. In addition, pursuant to anti-dilution terms included in cash-based awards that were outstanding on the Record Date, the number of units of cash-based awards increased due to the Special Dividend. As a result, additional expense was recognized due to the Special Dividend. See additional discussion relating to these cash-based awards in Note 2. 1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued) Redeemable Preferred Stocks – Our redeemable preferred stocks, prior to their redemption as discussed in Note 2, were redeemable outside our control and therefore were historically classified as temporary/mezzanine equity. The redeemable preferred stocks were recorded at fair value upon issuance, net of issuance costs or discounts. In addition, certain embedded features (“embedded derivative”) included in the Series E Redeemable Preferred required bifurcation and were classified as derivative liabilities. The carrying values of the redeemable preferred stocks were being increased since issuance by periodic accretions (including the amount for dividends earned but not yet declared or paid) using the interest method so that the carrying amount would equal the redemption value as of the earliest possible redemption date by the holder. The accretion was recorded to retained earnings/accumulated deficit. However, in September 2021, our redeemable preferred stocks were exchanged into our common stock as discussed in Note 2. As a result, the change in classification of the redeemable preferred stocks from temporary/mezzanine equity to permanent equity was considered an extinguishment. In conjunction with the extinguishment of the redeemable preferred stocks, the then current fair value of the bifurcated embedded derivative was applied to the carrying value of the redeemable preferred stocks at the time of the extinguishment. Equity Awards – Equity award transactions with employees are measured based on the estimated fair value of the equity awards issued. For equity awards with service conditions that have a graded vesting period, we recognize compensation cost on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period for the entire award. Forfeitures are accounted for as they occur. We may issue new shares of common stock or may use treasury shares associated with the equity awards. See additional discussion relating to certain equity awards impacted by the Exchange Transaction in Note 11. Cash and Cash Equivalents – Investments, which consist of highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less, are considered cash equivalents. Accounts Receivable – Our accounts receivable is stated at net realizable value. This value includes an appropriate allowance for estimated uncollectible accounts to reflect any loss anticipated on accounts receivable balances. Our estimate is based on historical experience and periodic assessment of outstanding accounts receivable, particularly those accounts that are past due (based upon the terms of the sale). Our periodic assessment of our accounts receivable is based on our best estimate of amounts that are not recoverable. Any contract assets consist of receivables from contracts with customers. Our accounts receivable primarily relate to these contract assets and are presented in our consolidated balance sheets. Sales to our customers are generally unsecured. Credit is extended to customers based on an evaluation of the customer’s financial condition and other factors. Customer payments are generally due thirty to sixty days after the invoice date. Concentrations of credit risk with respect to trade receivables are monitored and this risk is reduced due to short-term payment terms relating to most of our significant customers. Six customers (including their affiliates) account for approximately 50% of our total net receivables at December 31, 2021 Inventories – Inventories are stated at the lower of cost (determined using the first-in, first-out (“FIFO”) basis) or net realizable value, which is the estimated selling prices in the ordinary course of business, less reasonably predictable costs of completion, transportation or disposal. Finished goods include material, labor, and manufacturing overhead costs. Inventory reserves associated with cost exceeding net realizable value were not material at December Property, Plant and Equipment – Property, plant and equipment (“PP&E”) are stated at cost, net of accumulated depreciation amortization (“D&A”). Leases meeting finance lease criteria are capitalized in PP&E. Major renewals and improvements that increase the life, value, or productive capacity of assets are capitalized in PP&E while maintenance, repairs and minor renewals are expensed as incurred. In addition, maintenance, repairs and minor renewal costs relating to planned major maintenance activities (“Turnarounds”) are expensed as they are incurred. All long-lived assets relate to domestic operations. Fully depreciated assets are retained in PP&E and accumulated D&A accounts until disposal. When PP&E is retired, sold, or otherwise disposed, the asset’s carrying amount and related accumulated D&A is removed from the accounts and any gain or loss is included in other income or expense. For financial reporting purposes, depreciation of the costs of PP&E is primarily computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets. No provision for depreciation is made on construction in progress or capital spare parts until such time as the relevant assets are put into service. In general, assets held for sale are reported at the lower of the carrying amounts of the assets or fair values less costs to sell. 1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued) Impairment of Long-Lived Assets – Long-lived assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset (asset group) may not be recoverable. An asset’s fair value must be determined when the carrying amount of an asset (asset group) exceeds the estimated undiscounted future cash flows expected to result from the use of the asset (asset group) and/or its eventual disposition. If assets to be held and used are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is the amount by which the carrying amounts of the assets exceed the fair values of the assets as measured by the present value of future net cash flows expected to be generated by the assets or their appraised value. In general, and depending on the event or change in circumstances, our asset groups are reviewed for impairment on a facility-by-facility basis (such as the Cherokee, El Dorado or Pryor Facility). In addition, if the event or change in circumstance relates to the probable sale of an asset (or group of assets), the specific asset (or group of assets) is reviewed for impairment. Leases – We determine if an arrangement is a lease at inception or modification of a contract and classify each lease as either an operating or finance lease based on the terms of the contract. We reassess lease classification subsequent to commencement upon a change to the expected lease term or a modification to the contract. A contract contains a lease if the contract conveys the right to control the use of the identified property or equipment, explicitly or implicitly, for a period of time in exchange for consideration. Control of an underlying asset is conveyed if we obtain the rights to direct the use of and obtain substantially all of the economic benefit from the use of the underlying asset. An operating lease asset represents our right to use the underlying asset as a lessee for the lease term and an operating lease liability represent our obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Currently, most of our leases are classified as operating leases and primarily relate to railcars, other equipment and office space. Our leases that are classified as finance leases and other leases under which we are the lessor are not material. Variable payments are excluded from the present value of lease payments and are recognized in the period in which the payment is made. Our current leases do not contain residual value guarantees. Most of our leases do not include options to extend or terminate the lease prior to the end of the term. Since our leases generally do not provide an implicit rate, we use our incremental borrowing rate based on the lease term and other information available at the commencement date in determining the present value of lease payments. Lease expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the applicable lease term. Concentration of Credit Risks for Cash and Cash Equivalents and Sales – Financial instruments relating to cash and cash equivalents potentially subject us to concentrations of credit risk. These financial instruments were held by financial institutions within the U. S. None of the financial instruments held within U.S. were in excess of the federally insured limits. Net sales to one customer, Koch Fertilizer LLC (“Koch Fertilizer”), represented approximately 15%, 11 approximately 12%, Accrued Insurance Liabilities – We are self-insured up to certain limits for group health, workers’ compensation and general liability claims. Above these limits, we have commercial stop-loss insurance coverage for our contractual exposure on group health claims and statutory limits under workers’ compensation obligatio ns. We also carry umbrella insurance of $100 million for most general liability and auto liability risks. We have a separate $50 million insurance policy covering pollution liability at our chemical facilities. Additional pollution liability coverage for our other facilities is provided in our general liability and umbrella policies . Our accrued self-insurance liabilities are based on estimates of claims, which include the reported incurred claims amounts plus the reserves established by our insurance adjustors and/or estimates provided by attorneys handling the claims, if any, up to the amount of our self-insurance limits. In addition, our accrued insurance liabilities include estimates of incurred, but not reported, claims based on historical claims experience. The determination of such claims and the appropriateness of the related liability is periodically reviewed and revised, if needed. Changes in these estimated liabilities are charged to operations. Potential legal fees and other directly related costs associated with insurance claims are not accrued but rather are expensed as incurred. Accrued insurance claims are included in accrued and other liabilities. It is reasonably possible that the actual development of claims could be different than our estimates. 1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued) Executive Benefit Agreements – We are party to certain benefit agreements with certain key former executives. Costs associated with these individual benefit agreements are accrued based on the estimated remaining service period when such benefits become probable, or they will be paid. Total costs accrued equal the present value of specified payments to be made after benefits become payable. Income Taxes – Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in the statement of operations in the period that includes the enactment date. We establish valuation allowances if we believe it is more-likely-than-not that some or all of deferred tax assets will not be realized. Significant judgment is applied in evaluating the need for and the magnitude of appropriate valuation allowances against deferred tax assets. In addition, we do not recognize a tax benefit unless we conclude that it is more likely than not that the benefit will be sustained on audit by the relevant taxing authorities based solely on the technical merits of the associated tax position. If the recognition threshold is met, we recognize a tax benefit measured at the largest amount of the tax benefit that, in our judgment, is greater than 50% likely to be realized. We record interest related to unrecognized tax positions in interest expense and penalties in operating other expense. Income tax benefits associated with amounts that are deductible for income tax purposes are recorded through the statement of operations. These benefits are principally generated from the vesting of restricted stock. We reduce income tax expense for investment tax credits in the period the credit arises and is earned. Contingencies – Certain conditions may exist which may result in a loss, but which will only be resolved when future events occur. We and our legal counsel assess such contingent liabilities, and such assessment inherently involves an exercise of judgment. If the assessment of a contingency indicates that it is probable that a loss has been incurred, we would accrue for such contingent losses when such losses can be reasonably estimated. If the assessment indicates that a potentially material loss contingency is not probable but reasonably possible, or is probable but cannot be estimated, the nature of the contingent liability, together with an estimate of the range of possible loss if determinable and material, would be disclosed. Estimates of potential legal fees and other directly related costs associated with contingencies are not accrued but rather are expensed as incurred. Loss contingency liabilities are included in current and noncurrent accrued and other liabilities and are based on current estimates that may be revised in the near term. In addition, we recognize contingent gains when such gains are realized or when the contingencies have been resolved (generally at the time a settlement has been reached). Asset Retirement Obligations – In general, we record the estimated fair value of an asset retirement obligation (“ARO”) associated with tangible long-lived assets in the period it is incurred and when there is sufficient information available to estimate the fair value. An ARO associated with long-lived assets is a legal obligation under existing or enacted law, statute, written or oral contract or legal construction. AROs, which are initially recorded based on estimated discounted cash flows, are accreted to full value over time through charges to cost of sales. In addition, we capitalize the corresponding asset retirement cost as PP&E, which cost is depreciated or depleted over the related asset’s respective useful life. We do not have any assets restricted for the purpose of settling our AROs. Revenue Recognition and Other Information Revenue Recognition and Performance Obligations We determine revenue recognition through the following steps: • Identification of the performance obligations in the contract; • Determination of the transaction price; • Allocation of the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and • Recognition of revenue when, or as, we satisfy a performance obligation. A performance obligation is a promise in a contract to transfer a distinct good or service to the customer and is the unit of account. A contract’s transaction price is allocated to each distinct performance obligation and recognized as revenue when, or as, the performance obligation is satisfied. Generally, satisfaction occurs when control of the promised goods is transferred to the customer or as services are rendered or completed in exchange for consideration in an amount for which we expect to be entitled. Generally, control is transferred when the preparation for shipment of the product to a customer has been completed. Most of our contracts contain a single performance obligation with the promise to transfer a specific product. Most of our revenue is recognized from performance obligations satisfied at a point in time, however, we have a performance obligation to perform certain services that are satisfied over a period of time. Revenue is recognized from this type of performance obligation as services are rendered and are based on the amount for which we have a right to invoice, which reflects the amount of expected consideration that corresponds directly with the value of the services performed. 1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued) Transaction Price Constraints and Variable Consideration For most of our contracts with customers, the transaction price from the inception of a contract is constrained to a short period of time (generally one month) as these contracts contain terms with variable consideration related to both price and quantity. These contract prices are often based on commodity indexes (such as NYMEX natural gas index) published monthly and the contract quantities are typically based on estimated ranges. The quantities become fixed and determinable over a period of time as each sale order is received from the customer. The nature of our contracts also gives rise to other types of variable consideration, including volume discounts and rebates, make-whole provisions, other pricing concessions, and short-fall charges. We estimate these amounts based on the expected amount to be provided to customers, which result in a transaction price adjustment reducing revenue (net sales) with the offset increasing contract or refund liabilities. These estimates are based on historical experience, anticipated performance and our best judgment at the time. We reassess these estimates on a quarterly basis. The aforementioned constraints over transaction prices in conjunction with the variable consideration included in our material contracts prevent a practical assignment of a specific dollar amount to performance obligations at the beginning and end of the period. Therefore, we have applied the variable consideration allocation exception. Future revenues to be earned from the satisfaction of performance obligations will be recognized when control transfers as goods are loaded and weighed or services are performed over the remaining duration of our contracts. Practical Expedients and Other Information We have applied the following practical expedients: • • • • All net sales and long-lived assets relate to domestic operations for the periods presented. In addition, net sales to non-U.S. customers were not material. Recognition of Incentive Tax Credits (Other Than Credits Associated with Income Taxes) – If an incentive tax credit relates to a recovery of taxes (other than income taxes) incurred, we recognize the incentive tax credit when it is probable and reasonably estimable. If an incentive tax credit relates to an amount in excess of taxes incurred, the incentive tax credit is a contingent gain, which we recognize the incentive tax credit when it is realized or when the contingencies have been resolved (generally at the time a settlement has been reached). Amounts recoverable from the taxing authorities, if any, are included in accounts receivable. The same financial statement classification is used for an incentive tax credit as the associated tax incurred. At December 31, 2020, our incentive tax credits totaled Recognition of Insurance Recoveries – If an insurance claim relates to a recovery of our losses, we recognize the recovery when it is probable and reasonably estimable. If our insurance claim relates to a contingent gain, we recognize the recovery when it is realized or when the contingencies have been resolved (generally at the time a settlement has been reached). Amounts recoverable from our insurance carriers, if any, are included in accounts receivable. An insurance recovery in excess of recoverable costs relating to a business interruption claim, if any, is a reduction to cost of sales. Cost of Sales – Cost of sales includes materials, labor and overhead costs, including depreciation, to manufacture the products sold plus inbound freight, purchasing and receiving costs, inspection costs, internal transfer costs, loading and handling costs, warehousing costs, railcar lease costs and outbound freight. Maintenance, repairs and minor renewal costs relating to Turnarounds are included in cost of sales as they are incurred. Precious metals used as a catalyst and consumed during the manufacturing process are included in cost of sales. Recoveries and gains from precious metals and business interruption insurance claims, if any, are reductions to cost of sales. Selling, General and Administrative Expense – Selling, general and administrative expense (“SG&A”) includes costs associated with the sales, marketing and administrative functions. Such costs include personnel costs, including benefits, professional fees, office and occupancy costs associated with the sales, marketing and administrative functions. Also included in SG&A are any distribution fees paid to third parties to distribute our products. 1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued) Derivatives, Hedges and Financial Instruments – Derivatives are recognized in the balance sheet and are measured at fair value. Changes in fair value of derivatives are recorded in results of operations unless the normal purchase or sale exceptions apply, or hedge accounting is elected. The fair value amounts recognized for our derivative contracts executed with the same counterparty under a master netting arrangement may be offset. We have the choice to offset or not, but that choice must be applied consistently. A master netting arrangement exists if the reporting entity has multiple contracts with a single counterparty that are subject to a contractual agreement that provides for the net settlement of all contracts through a single payment in a single currency in the event of default on or termination of any one contract. Offsetting the fair values recognized for the derivative contracts outstanding with a single counterparty results in the net fair value of the transactions being reported as an asset or a liability in the balance sheet. When applicable, we present the fair values of our derivative contracts under master netting agreements using a gross fair value presentation. Assets and liabilities measured at fair value are classified using the following hierarchy, which is based upon the transparency of inputs to the valuation as of the measurement date: Level 1 - Valuations of contracts classified as Level 1 are based on quoted prices in active markets for identical contracts. Level 2 - Valuations of contracts classified as Level 2 are based on quoted prices for similar contracts and valuation inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for these contracts. Level 3 - Valuations of assets and liabilities classified as Level 3 are based on prices or valuation techniques that require inputs that are both unobservable and significant to the overall fair value measurement. At December 31, 2021 and 2020, we did not have any financial instruments with fair values materially different from their carrying amounts (which excludes issuance costs, if applicable). The fair value of financial instruments is not indicative of the overall fair value of our assets and liabilities since financial instruments do not include all assets, including intangibles, and all liabilities. Income (Loss) per Common Share – Net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders is computed by adjusting net income (loss) by the amount of dividends and dividend requirements (including the deemed dividend discussed in Note 2) on preferred stocks and the accretion of redeemable preferred stocks, if applicable. Basic loss per common share is computed by dividing net loss attributable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding, excluding contingently issuable common shares (unvested restricted stock), if applicable. For periods we earn net income, a proportional share of net income is allocated to participating securities, if applicable, determined by dividing total weighted average participating securities by the sum of the total weighted average common shares and participating securities (the “two-class method”). Certain securities (Series E Redeemable Preferred prior to the Exchange Transaction and restricted stock units) participate in dividends declared on our common stock and are therefore considered to be participating securities. Participating securities have the effect of diluting both basic and diluted income per common share during periods of net income. For periods we incur a net loss, no loss is allocated to participating securities because they have no contractual obligation to share in our losses. Diluted loss per common share is computed after giving consideration to the dilutive effect of our potential common stock instruments that are outstanding during the period, except where such non-participating securities would be anti-dilutive. Segment Information - We operate in one principal business segment – our chemical business. Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncement ASU 2019-12 – In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-12 , Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes, which affects general principles within Topic 740, Income Taxes. The amendments of ASU 2019-12 are meant to simplify and reduce the cost of accounting for income taxes. The ASU removes certain exceptions to the general framework and also seeks to simplify and/or clarify accounting for income taxes by adding certain requirements that would simplify GAAP for financial statement preparers. On January 1, 2021, we adopted ASU 2019-12, which did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements or related disclosures. 1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued) Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements ASU 2020-06 - In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-06, Debt-Debt with Conversion and other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging – Contracts in Entity’s own Equity (Subtopic 815-40) . This ASU addresses the complexity associated with applying GAAP to certain financial instruments with characteristics of liabilities and equity. The ASU includes amendments to the guidance on convertible instruments and the derivative scope exception for contracts in an entity’s own equity and simplifies the accounting for convertible instruments which include beneficial conversion features or cash conversion features by removing certain separation models. Additionally, the ASU requires entities to use the “if-converted” method when calculating diluted earnings per share for convertible instruments. This ASU will be effective for us on January 1, 2024; however, early adoption is permitted, which began January 1, 2021. We are evaluating the timing and the effect of our pending adoption of this ASU on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures at this time. ASU 2020-04 – In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04 , Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting, which provides optional guidance for a limited time to ease the potential accounting burden associated with transitioning away from reference rates such as LIBOR that are expected to be discontinued. This ASU provides exceptions and optional expedients for applying GAAP to contract modifications, hedging relationships, and other transactions that reference LIBOR or other reference rates to be discontinued as a result of reference rate reform. They do not apply to modifications made or hedges entered into or evaluated after December 31, 2022, unless the hedging relationships existed as of that date and optional expedients for them were elected and retained through the end of the hedging relationship. This ASU became effective upon issuance. We continue to evaluate the effect of this ASU and plan to utilize this relief for our debt agreements that include LIBOR rates. |

Redeemable Preferred Stocks Series E and Series F Redeemable Preferred Exchanged for Common Stock In July 2021, we entered into a Securities Exchange Agreement (the “Exchange Agreement”) with LSB Funding (the “Holder”), an affiliate of Eldridge Industries, LLC and other affiliates (together “Eldridge”), which Exchange Agreement was voted on and approved by our stockholders at the Special Meeting as discussed in Note 1. Pursuant to the terms of the Exchange Agreement, the Holder would exchange all of the shares of the Series E and Series F Redeemable Preferred the liquidation preference (“Liquidation Preference”), at the time of the exchange, and On September 27, 2021, the closing of the Exchange Agreement occurred, and the Exchange Transaction was consummated. Pursuant to the terms of the Exchange Agreement, the Holder exchanged all of the shares of the Series E and Series F Redeemable Preferred for approximately 49.1 million shares of our common stock. The total fair value of the approximately 49.1 million shares of common stock issued was approximately $531.1 million (based on the average per share price on the date of closing). The fair value of the common stock issued was in excess of the Ser Because we were in an accumulated deficit position on the closing date, the deemed dividend was charged to capital in excess of par value.

As a result, a change of control (“CoC”) event occurred as defined in certain equity award agreements discussed in Note 11 and in certain cash-based award agreements. Pursuant to the terms of the cash-based awards outstanding as of the CoC event, all such awards immediately vested and approximately $5.4 million was paid. As a result of the vesting, we recognized an additional $2.0 million expense, of which $0.7 million is classified as cost of sales and $1.3 million is classified as SG&A. |

At December 31, 2021 and 2020, our accrued liability for AROs was $ 100,000 . However, the facilities and some of the water related assets have an indeterminate life and as a result there is insufficient information to estimate the fair value for certain of our AROs.

Long-Term Debt (continued) (A) Our revolving credit facility, as amended (the “Working Capital Revolver Loan”), provides for advances up to $ 65 million (the “Maximum Revolver Amount”), based on specific percentages of eligible accounts receivable and inventories and up to $ 10 million of letters of credit, the outstanding amount of which reduces the available for borrowing under the Working Capital Revolver Loan. At December 31, 2021, our available borrowings under our Working Capital Revolver Loan were approximately $ 61.3 million, based on our eligible collateral, less outstanding letters of credit and loan balance. The maturity date of the Working Capital Revolver Loan is on the earlier of (i) the date that is 90 days prior to the earliest stated maturity date of the Senior Secured Notes (unless refinanced or repaid) and (ii) February 26, 2024 . Subject to certain conditions and subject to lender approval, the Maximum Revolver Amount may increase up to an additional $ 10 million. The Working Capital Revolver Loan also provides for a springing financial covenant (the “Financial Covenant”), which requires that, if the borrowing availability is less than 10.0% of the total revolver commitments , then the borrowers must maintain a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio of not less than 1.00 to 1.00 . Interest accrues on outstanding borrowings under the Working Capital Revolver Loan at a rate equal to, at our election, either (a) LIBOR for an interest period selected by us plus an applicable margin equal to 1.50 The Working Capital Revolver Loan contains customary covenants including limitations on asset sales, liens, debt incurrence, restricted payments, investments, dividends and transactions with affiliates. The Working Capital Revolver Loan includes customary events of default. Upon the occurrence of any event of default, the obligations under the Working Capital Revolver Loan may be accelerated and the revolver commitments may be terminated. Obligations under the Working Capital Revolver Loan are secured by a first priority security interest in substantially all of our current assets, including accounts receivable and inventory, subject to certain customary exceptions. Also, the lender provided LSB a consent to close the Exchange Transaction discussed in Note 2 and to allow for the payment of dividends to the holders of the Series B and Series D Preferred discussed in Note 12. (B) On October 14, 2021, LSB completed the issuance and sale of $500 million in aggregate principal amount of its 6.25% Senior Secured Notes due 2028 (the “New Notes”). The New Notes were issued pursuant to an indenture, dated as of October 14, 2021 (the “Indenture”), by and among the LSB, the subsidiary guarantors named therein, and Wilmington Trust, National Association, a national banking association, as trustee and collateral agent. The New Notes were issued at a price equal to 100% of their face value. Most of the proceeds from the New Notes were used to redeem all of our existing Senior Secured Notes due 2023 (the "Old Notes"), to pay related transaction fees, and the remaining portion to be used for general corporate purposes. The redemption was completed by the trustee on October 29, 2021. The Old Notes were redeemed in accordance with the contractual terms and was accounted for as an extinguishment of debt. As a result, we recognized a loss on extinguishment of debt of approximately $20.3 million in 2021, primarily consisting of the contractual redemption premium paid and the expensing of unamortized debt issuance costs associated with the Old Notes. The New Notes mature on October 15, 2028, ranking senior in right of payment to all of our debt that is expressly subordinated in right of payment to the notes, and will rank pari passu in right of payment with all of our liabilities that are not so subordinated, including the Working Capital Revolver Loan Interest on the New Notes accrues at a rate of 6.25% per annum and is payable semi-annually in arrears on May 15 and October 15 of each year, beginning on May 15, 2022. Pursuant to the Indenture, LSB may redeem the New Notes at its option, in whole or in part, at certain redemption prices, including a “make-whole” premium, as set forth in the Indenture but also includes redemption requirements associated with a change of control (as defined in the Indenture). T he New Notes do not have any conversion features. 7. Long-Term Debt (continued) LSB may redeem the New Notes at its option, in whole or in part, subject to the payment of a premium of 3.125% of the principal amount so redeemed, in the case of any optional redemption on or after October 15, 2024. If LSB experiences a change of control, it must offer to purchase the New Notes at 101% of their principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to but excluding the date of purchase. The Indenture contains covenants that limit, among other things, LSB and certain of its subsidiaries’ ability to (1) incur additional indebtedness; (2) declare or pay dividends, redeem stock or make other distributions to stockholders; (3) make other restricted payments, including investments; (4) create dividend and other payment restrictions affecting its subsidiaries; (5) create liens Obligations in respect of the New Notes are secured by a first priority security interest in substantially all of our fixed assets, subject to certain customary exceptions. (C) El Dorado Chemical Company (“ EDC”), one of our subsidiaries, is party to a secured financing arrangement with an affiliate of LSB Funding. Principal and interest are payable in 48 equal monthly installments with a final balloon payment of approximately $3 million due in June 2023 (D) EDC is party to a secured loan agreement with an affiliate of LSB Funding. Principal and interest will be payable in 60 equal monthly installments through March 2025. (E) In August 2020, El Dorado Ammonia L.L.C. (“EDA”), one of our subsidiaries, entered into a $30 million secured financing arrangement with an affiliate of LSB Funding. Beginning in September 2020, principal and interest are payable in 60 equal monthly installments with a final balloon payment of approximately $5 million due in August 2025 (F) In April 2020, LSB entered into a federally guaranteed loan agreement (“PPP loan”) for $10 million with a lender pursuant to a new loan program through the U.S. Small Business Administration (“SBA”) as the result of the Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP”) established by the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (“CARES”) Act and amended by the Paycheck Protection Program Flexibility Act of 2020. We applied ASC 470, Debt, to account for the PPP loan. We have used all of the proceeds from the PPP loan for payroll, rent, utilities, and other specified costs that qualify for loan forgiveness. In April 2021, we submitted the PPP loan forgiveness application to the lender. In June 2021, the PPP loan was fully forgiven by the SBA and lender. As a result, we recognized a gain on extinguishment of debt of $10 million in 2021.

Income Taxes Benefit for income taxes are as follows: 2021 2020 2019 (In Thousands) Current: Federal $ — $ (4 ) $ — State (250 ) 33 (29 ) Total Current $ (250 ) $ 29 $ (29 ) Deferred: Federal $ (6,217 ) $ (4,631 ) $ (14,739 ) State 1,911 (147 ) (6,156 ) Total Deferred $ (4,306 ) $ (4,778 ) $ (20,895 ) Benefit for income taxes $ (4,556 ) $ (4,749 ) $ (20,924 ) The current benefit for federal income taxes shown above includes federal income tax after the consideration of permanent and temporary differences between income for GAAP and tax purposes. The current benefit for state income taxes includes state income tax and provisions for uncertain income tax positions, and other similar adjustments. The deferred tax provision (benefit) results from the recognition of changes in our prior year deferred tax assets and liabilities, and the utilization of state NOL carryforwards and other temporary differences. We reduce income tax expense for tax credits in the year they arise and are earned. At December 31, 2021, our gross amount of tax credits available to offset state income taxes was $4.2 million ($3.4 million net of federal benefit). Most of these tax credits carryforward for 9 years and begin expiring in 2022. The gross amount of federal tax credits was $8.1 million. These credits carryforward for 20 years and begin expiring in 2034. In 2021, we utilized approximately $64 million and $56 million of federal and state NOL carryforwards, respectively, to reduce tax liabilities (minimal in 2020 and 2019). At December 31, 2021, we have remaining federal and state tax NOL carryforwards of $592 million and $798 million, respectively. The federal NOL carryforwards begin expiring in 2033 and the state NOL carryforwards began expiring in 2021. We considered both positive and negative evidence in our determination of the need for valuation allowances for the deferred tax assets associated with federal and state NOLs and federal credits and in conjunction with the IRC Section 382 limitation. Information evaluated includes our financial position and results of operations for the current and preceding years, the availability of deferred tax liabilities and tax carrybacks, as well as an evaluation of currently available information about future years. Valuation allowances are reflective of our quarterly analysis of the four sources of taxable income, including the calculation of the reversal of existing tax assets and liabilities, the impact of annual utilization limitations of interest expense and net operating losses and our results of operations. Based on our analysis, we believe that it is more-likely-than-not that a portion of our federal and state deferred tax assets will not be able to be utilized. Information relating to our valuation allowance are included in the tables below. In 2021, the provision for income taxes includes the reversal of approximately $13 million of federal valuation allowance and $4 million of state valuation allowance primarily due to current year income. 8. Income Taxes (continued) Deferred tax assets and liabilities include temporary differences and carryforwards as follows: December 31, 2021 2020 (In Thousands) Deferred compensation $ 2,390 $ 2,106 Other accrued liabilities 1,721 2,142 Lease liability 6,710 6,471 Interest expense carryforward 27,928 36,165 Net operating loss 159,213 170,362 Other 12,030 10,255 Less valuation allowance on deferred tax assets (46,968 ) (64,655 ) Total deferred tax assets $ 163,024 $ 162,846 Property, plant and equipment (178,535 ) (183,335 ) Right-of-use-assets (6,709 ) (6,508 ) Prepaid and other insurance reserves (4,413 ) (3,942 ) Total deferred tax liabilities $ (189,657 ) $ (193,785 ) Net deferred tax liabilities $ (26,633 ) $ (30,939 ) All of our income (loss) before taxes relates to domestic operations. Detailed below are the differences between the amount of the provision (benefit) for income taxes and the amount which would result from the application of the federal statutory rate to “Income (loss) before benefit for income taxes.” 2021 2020 2019 (In Thousands) Provision (benefit) for income taxes at federal statutory rate $ 8,187 $ (13,999 ) $ (17,712 ) State current and deferred income tax provision (benefit) 1,833 (5,094 ) (5,282 ) Valuation allowance - Federal (13,400 ) 8,758 2,739 Valuation allowance - State (4,286 ) 4,308 2,961 State tax law changes 7,360 (660 ) (4,388 ) Tax credits (2,835 ) — — PPP loan forgiveness (2,456 ) — — Other 1,041 1,938 758 Benefit for income taxes $ (4,556 ) $ (4,749 ) $ (20,924 ) A reconciliation of the beginning and ending amount of uncertain tax positions is as follows: 2021 2020 2019 (In Thousands) Balance at beginning of year $ 464 $ 519 $ 577 Additions based on tax positions related to the current year — — — Reductions for tax positions of prior years (464 ) (55 ) (58 ) Balance at end of year $ — $ 464 $ 519 We expect that the amount of unrecognized tax benefits may change as the result of ongoing operations, the outcomes of audits, and the expiration of statute of limitations. This change is not expected to have a significant effect on our results of operations or financial condition. For 2021, 2020, and 2019, if recognized, the effect on the effective tax rate from unrecognized tax benefits would be insignificant. 8. Income Taxes (continued) We record interest related to unrecognized tax positions in interest expense and penalties in operating other expense. For 2021, 2020 and 2019, the amounts for interest and penalties associated with unrecognized tax positions were minimal. At December 31, 2021, there was no accrued interest or penalties (minimal at December 31, 2020). LSB and certain of its subsidiaries file income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction and various state jurisdictions. With few exceptions, the 2018-2021 |

Commitments And Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract] | |
Commitments and Contingencies | 9. Commitments and Contingencies Purchase and Sales Commitments – We have the following significant purchase and sales commitments. UAN supply agreement – The Pryor Chemical Company (“PCC”) is party to an agreement with CVR. CVR has the exclusive right (but not the obligation) to purchase all the tons of UAN that are produced by PCC with certain limitations. If CVR fails to take delivery of certain tons, PCC pursuant to the terms of the agreement may immediately sell such unpurchased product to a third-party without restriction. The current term of the agreement expires in June 2022, but includes automatic renewals for one or more additional one-year terms unless terminated by either party. However, CVR may unilaterally terminate the agreement upon 180 days’ advance written notice of termination to PCC; provided, however, that each party’s rights and obligations pertaining to UAN that CVR committed to purchase before such advance notice will survive termination. Additionally, PCC can terminate the agreement upon 90 days’ advance written notice of termination to CVR; provided, however, that each party’s rights and obligations pertaining to UAN that PCC committed to sell prior to such advance notice will survive termination. Ammonia supply agreement – EDC is party to an agreement, as amended, with Koch Fertilizer under which Koch Fertilizer agrees to purchase, with minimum purchase requirements, the ammonia that (a) will be produced at the El Dorado Facility and (b) a portion that is in excess of EDC’s needs as defined. As amended, the term of the agreement expires in June 2023 but automatically continues for one or more additional one-year terms unless terminated by either party by delivering a notice of termination at least nine months prior to the end of term in effect. Nitric acid supply agreement – EDC with a customer to supply nitric acid. Under the agreement, EDC agreed to supply between 70,000 to 100,000 tons of nitric acid annually. The initial contract term began in 2021 and extends through 2027 but includes automatic one-year Settlements, Outstanding Natural Gas Purchase Commitments, and Other – During several days in February 2021, the Pryor Facility was taken out of service after extreme cold weather caused a surge in natural gas prices in the region, along with the curtailment of gas distribution by the operator of the pipeline that supplies natural gas to the facility. Also, as a result of unprecedented cold weather conditions, the primary natural gas supplier to our El Dorado Facility asserted a claim of force majeure and materially restricted the supply of gas to the facility. In order to mitigate a portion of the commodity price risk associated with natural gas, we periodically enter into natural gas forward contracts and volume purchase commitments that locked in the cost of certain volumes of natural gas. Prior to this weather event, we had both types of arrangements. During 2021, as a result of the extreme conditions previously described, we settled all of our natural gas forward contracts and certain volume purchase commitments at that time and recognized a realized gain of approximately $6.8 million, which includes the realized gain discussed under “Natural Gas Contracts” in Note 10 and is classified as a reduction to cost of sales . During 2020, EDC and certain vendors mediated settlements for EDC to recover certain costs associated with a nitric acid plant at our El Dorado Facility. The construction of this plant was completed, and the plant began production in 2016. As a result of the settlements, the vendors paid EDC $4.3 million, provided parts totaling $0.3 million and have agreed to provide services and parts totaling $2.5 million, which amount, or portion thereof, may be paid in cash at the option of the vendo rs. At December 31, 2021 and 2020, approximately $2.0 million and $2.5 million, respectively, is included in noncurrent accounts receivable (classified as a noncurrent other asset) associated with these settlements. As At December 31, 2021 certain of our natural gas contracts qualify as normal purchases under GAAP and thus are not mark-to-market, which contracts included volume purchase commitments with fixed costs of approximately 5.4 million MMBtus of natural gas. These contracts extend through March 2022 at a weighted-average cost of $4.53 per MMBtu ($24.6 million) and a weighted-average market value of $3.87 per MMBtu ($21.0 million). 9. Commitments and Contingencies (continued) In addition, we had standby letters of credit outstanding of approximately $2.6 million at December Wastewater Pipeline Operating Agreement – EDC is party to an operating agreement for the right to use a pipeline to dispose its wastewater. EDC is contractually obligated to pay a portion of the operating costs of the pipeline, as incurred, which portion is estimated to be $100,000 to $150,000 annually. The initial term of the operating agreement is through December 2053. Performance and Payment Bonds – We are contingently liable to sureties in respect of certain insurance bonds issued by the sureties in connection with certain contracts entered into by certain subsidiaries in the normal course of business. These insurance bonds primarily represent guarantees of future performance of our subsidiaries. As of December 31, 2021, we have agreed to indemnify the sureties for payments, up to $9.7 million, made by them in respect of such bonds. All of these insurance bonds are expected to expire or be renewed in 2022. Employment and Severance Agreements - We have employment and severance agreements with several of our officers. The agreements, as amended, provide for annual base salaries, bonuses and other benefits commonly found in such agreements. In the event of termination of employment due to a change in control (as defined in the agreements), the agreements provide for payments aggregating $9.9 million at December 31, 2021. Also see Note 14-Related Party Transactions. Legal Matters - Following is a summary of certain legal matters involving the Company: A. Environmental Matters Our facilities and operations are subject to numerous federal, state and local environmental laws and to other laws regarding health and safety matters (collectively, the “Environmental and Health Laws”), many of which provide for certain performance obligations, substantial fines and criminal sanctions for violations. Certain Environmental and Health Laws impose strict liability as well as joint and several liability for costs required to remediate and restore sites where hazardous substances, hydrocarbons or solid wastes have been stored or released. We may be required to remediate contaminated properties currently or formerly owned or operated by us or facilities of third parties that received waste generated by our operations regardless of whether such contamination resulted from the conduct of others or from consequences of our own actions that were in compliance with all applicable laws at the time those actions were taken. In addition, claims for damages to persons or property, including natural resources, may result from the environmental, health and safety effects of our operations. There can be no assurance that we will not incur material costs or liabilities in complying with such laws or in paying fines or penalties for violation of such laws. Our insurance may not cover all environmental risks and costs or may not provide sufficient coverage if an environmental claim is made against us. Historically, significant capital expenditures have been incurred by our subsidiaries in order to comply with the Environmental and Health Laws, and significant capital expenditures are expected to be incurred in the future. We will also be obligated to manage certain discharge water outlets and monitor groundwater contaminants at our facilities should we discontinue the operations of a facility. As of December 31, 2021, our accrued liabilities for environmental matters totaled approximately $0.5 million relating primarily to the matters discussed below. Estimates of the most likely costs for our environmental matters are generally based on preliminary or completed assessment studies, preliminary results of studies, or our experience with other similar matters. in Note 6 – 1. Discharge Water Matters Each of our manufacturing facilities generates process wastewater, which may include cooling tower and boiler water quality control streams, contact storm water and miscellaneous spills and leaks from process equipment. The process water discharge, storm-water runoff and miscellaneous spills and leaks are governed by various permits generally issued by the respective state environmental agencies as authorized and overseen by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency. These permits limit the type and amount of effluents that can be discharged and control the method of such discharge. 9. Commitments and Contingencies (continued) In 2017, the Pryor Chemical Company (“PCC”) filed a Permit Renewal Application for its Non-Hazardous Injection Well Permit at the Pryor Facility. Although the Injection Well Permit expired in 2018, PCC continues to operate the injection well pending the Oklahoma Department of Environmental Quality (“ODEQ”) action on the Permit Renewal Application. PCC and ODEQ are engaged in ongoing discussions related to the renewal of the injection well to address the wastewater stream. Our El Dorado Facility is subject to a National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (“NPDES”) permit issued by the Arkansas Department of Environmental Quality (“ADEQ”) in 2004. In 2010, the ADEQ issued a draft NPDES permit renewal for the El Dorado Facility, which contained more restrictive discharge limits than the previous 2004 permit. During 2017, ADEQ issued a final NPDES permit with new dissolved mineral limits; however, EDC filed an appeal, and a Permit Appeal Resolution (“PAR”) was signed in 2018. EDC is in compliance with the revised permit limits agreed upon in the PAR. In 2006, the El Dorado Facility entered into a Consent Administrative Order (“CAO”) that recognizes the presence of nitrate contamination in the shallow groundwater. The CAO required EDC to perform semi-annual groundwater monitoring, continue operation of a groundwater recovery system, submit a human health and ecological risk assessment, and submit a remedial action plan. The risk assessment was submitted in 2007. In 2015, the ADEQ stated that El Dorado Chemical was meeting the requirements of the CAO and should continue semi-annual monitoring. Subsequent to the PAR mentioned previously, a new CAO was signed in 2018, which required an Evaluation Report of the data and effectiveness of the groundwater remedy for nitrate contamination. During 2019, the Evaluation Report was submitted to the ADEQ and the ADEQ approved the report. No liability has been established at December , in connection with this ADEQ matter. 2. Other Environmental Matters In 2002, certain of our subsidiaries sold substantially all of their operating assets relating to a Kansas chemical facility (the “Hallowell Facility”) but retained ownership of the real property where the facility is located. Our subsidiary retained the obligation to be responsible for, and perform the activities under, a previously executed consent order to investigate the surface and subsurface contamination at the real property, develop a corrective action strategy based on the investigation, and implement such strategy. In addition, certain of our subsidiaries agreed to indemnify the buyer of such assets for these environmental matters. As the successor to a prior owner of the Hallowell Facility, Chevron Environmental Management Company (“Chevron”) has agreed in writing, within certain limitations, to pay and has been paying one-half During this process, our subsidiary and Chevron retained an environmental consultant that prepared and performed a corrective action study work plan as to the appropriate method to remediate the Hallowell Facility. During 2020, the KDHE selected a remedy of annual monitoring and the implementation of an Environmental Use Control (“EUC”). This remedy primarily relates to long-term surface and groundwater monitoring to track the natural decline in contamination and is subject to a 5-year re-evaluation with the KDHE. The final remedy, including the EUC, the finalization of the cost estimates and any required financial assurances remains under discussion with the KDHE, but continues to be delayed due to the impact from the COVID-19 pandemic. Pending the results from our discussions regarding the final remedy, we continue to accrue our allocable portion of costs primarily for the additional testing, monitoring and risk assessments that could be reasonably estimated, which amount is included in our accrued liabilities for environmental matters discussed above. The estimated amount is not discounted to its present value. As more information becomes available, our estimated accrual will be refined, as necessary. B. Other Pending, Threatened or Settled Litigation In 2013, an explosion and fire occurred at the West Fertilizer Co. (“West Fertilizer”) located in West, Texas, causing death, bodily injury and substantial property damage. West Fertilizer is not owned or controlled by us, but West Fertilizer was a customer of EDC, and purchased AN from EDC from time to time. LSB and EDC received letters from counsel purporting to represent subrogated insurance carriers, personal injury claimants and persons who suffered property damages informing LSB and EDC that their clients are conducting investigations into the cause of the explosion and fire to determine, among other things, whether AN manufactured by EDC and supplied to West Fertilizer was stored at West Fertilizer at the time of the explosion and, if so, whether such AN may have been one of the contributing factors of the explosion. Initial lawsuits filed named West Fertilizer and another supplier of AN as defendants. 9. Commitments and Contingencies (continued) In 2014, EDC and LSB were named as defendants, together with other AN manufacturers and brokers that arranged the transport and delivery of AN to West Fertilizer, in the case styled City of West, Texas vs. CF Industries, Inc., et al. Our product liability insurance policies have aggregate limits of general liability totaling $100 million, with a self-insured retention of $250,000, which retention limit has been met relating to the West Fertilizer matter. In August 2015, the trial court dismissed plaintiff’s negligenc e claims against us, and EDC based on a duty to inspect but allowed the plaintiffs to proceed on claims for design defect and failure to warn. Subsequently, we and EDC have entered into confidential settlement agreements (with approval of our insurance carriers) with several 2021, no liability , except for the unpaid portion of the settlement agreements discussed above In 2015, we and EDA received formal written notice from Global Industrial, Inc. (“Global”) of Global’s intention to assert mechanic liens for labor, service, or materials furnished under certain subcontract agreements for the improvement of the new ammonia plant (“Ammonia Plant”) at our El Dorado Facility. Global was a subcontractor of Leidos Constructors, LLC (“Leidos”), the general contractor for EDA for the construction for the Ammonia Plant. Leidos terminated the services of Global with respect to their work performed at our El Dorado Facility. LSB and EDA are pursuing the recovery of any damage or loss caused by Global’s work performed through their contract with Leidos at our El Dorado Facility. In March 2016, EDC and LSB were served a summons in a case styled Global Industrial, Inc. d/b/a Global Turnaround vs. Leidos Constructors, LLC et al., under breach of contract and other claims. At the time of the summons, our accounts payable included invoices totaling approximately $ 3.5 million related to the claims asserted by Global but such invoices were not approved by Leidos for payment. We have requested indemnification During 2018, the court bifurcated the case into: (1) Global’s claims against Leidos and LSB, and (2) the cross-claims between Leidos and LSB. Part (1) of the case was tried in the court. In March 2020, the court rendered an interim judgment and issued its final judgment in April 2020. In summary, the judgment awarded Global (i) approximately $7.4 million (including the $3.5 million discussed above) for labor, service, and materials furnished relating to the Ammonia Plant, (ii) approximately $1.3 million for prejudgment interest, and (iii) a claim of lien on certain property and the foreclosure of the lien to satisfy these obligations. In addition, post-judgment interest will accrue at the annual rate of 4.25% until • • judgment interest expense . We have filed a notice of intent to appeal, and the court entered a stay of the judgment pending appeal. LSB intends to vigorously prosecute its claims against Leidos and vigorously contest the cross-claims in Part (2) of the matter. Due to the impact from the COVID-19 pandemic, the trial date for Part (2) of the matter has been delayed and we are awaiting a new trial date. No liability was established at December 31, 2021 or 2020, in connection with the cross-claims in Part (2) of the matter, except for certain invoices held in accounts payable. We are also involved in various other claims and legal actions (including matters involving gain contingencies). It is possible that the actual future development of claims could be different from our estimates but, after consultation with legal counsel, we believe that changes in our estimates will not have a material effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. |

Derivatives, Hedges and Financial Instruments | 10. Derivatives, Hedges and Financial Instruments For the periods presented, th e following significant instruments are accounted for on a fair value basis: Natural Gas Contracts Periodically, we entered into certain forward natural gas contracts (“natural gas contracts”), which are accounted for on a mark-to-market basis. We utilize these natural gas contracts as economic hedges for risk management purposes but are not designated as hedging instruments. At December 31, 2020, our natural gas contracts included million MMBtu of natural gas, that extended through December 2021, but these contracts were settled during the first quarter of 2021, primarily due to the weather event discussed At December 31, 2020, the fair value of the natural gas contracts included approximately $0.1 million (classified as a current asset) and approximately $1.3 million (classified as a current liability). valuations of the natural gas contracts are classified as Level 2. The valuation inputs included the contractual weighted-average cost of $ per MMBtu and the weighted-average market value of $ per MMBtu. For 2021, we recognized a gain of $2.7 million (including a realized gain of $1.5 million). Embedded Derivative As discussed in Note 2, the Series E Redeemable Preferred was exchanged for our common stock during 2021. As a result, certain bifurcated embedded redemption features and participation rights value (“embedded derivative”) included as a part of the terms of the Series E Redeemable Preferred were extinguished. P rior to the completion of the E liability. At December 31, 2020, the fair value of the embedded derivative was approximately $1.0 million (classified as a noncurrent liability). We estimated that the contingent redemption features had fair value since we estimate that a portion of the shares of this preferred stock would be redeemed prior to October 25, 2023, the earliest redemption date by the holder. For certain other embedded features, we estimated no fair value based on our assessment that there was a remote probability that these features would be exercised. The fair value of the embedded derivative was valued using discounted cash flow models and primarily based on the difference in the present value of estimated future cash flows with no redemptions prior to October 25, 2023, compared to certain estimated redemptions during the same period and applying the effective dividend rate of the Series E Redeemable Preferred. A t December 31, 2020, the at The valuations of the embedded derivative were classified as Level 3. This derivative was valued using market information, management’s redemption assumptions, the underlying number of shares as defined in the terms of the Series E Redeemable Preferred, and the market price of our common stock. For 2021, For 2020 and 2019, we recognized unrealized gains of approximately $0.1 million and $0.5 million, respectively, due to the change in fair value of the embedded derivative. These gains and loss are included in non-op erating other income and expense. There was no Level 3 transfer activity during 2021, 2020 or 2019. |

Stockholders' Equity | 11. Stockholders’ Equity 2016 Long Term Incentive Plan – During 2016, our Board adopted our 2016 Long Term Incentive Plan , which plan was approved by our shareholders at our annual meeting of shareholders held on June 2, 2016. During 2021, the 2016 Long Term Incentive Plan was amended as approved by our shareholders at our annual meeting of shareholders held on May 14, 2021 (together, the “2016 Plan”). N o awards may be granted under the 2016 Plan on and after the tenth anniversary of its effective date. After the effective date of the 2016 Plan, Incentive Stock Plan (the “2008 Plan”) The maximum aggregate number of shares reserved and available for issuance under the 2016 Plan shall not exceed 5,750,000 shares The 2016 Plan is administered by the compensation committee (the “Committee”) All share information has been retroactively adjusted to reflect the Special Dividend as discussed in Note 2. The following may be granted by the Committee under the 2016 Plan: Stock Awards, Restricted Stock, Restricted Stock Units, and Other Awards – The Committee may grant awards of restricted stock, restricted stock units, and other stock and cash-based awards, which may include the payment of stock in lieu of cash (including cash payable under other incentive or bonus programs) or the payment of cash (which may or may not be based on the price of our common stock). Stock Appreciation Rights (“SARs”) – The Committee may grant SARs as a right in tandem with the number of shares underlying stock options granted under the 2016 Plan or on a stand-alone basis. SARs are the right to receive payment per share of the SAR exercised in stock or in cash equal to the excess of the share’s fair market value, as defined in the 2016 Plan, on the date of exercise over its fair market value on the date the SAR was granted. Exercise of a SAR issued in tandem with stock options will result in the reduction of the number of shares underlying the related stock option to the extent of the SAR exercise. Stock Options – The Committee may grant either incentive stock options or non-qualified stock options. The Committee sets option exercise prices and terms, except that the exercise price of a stock option may be no less than 100% of the fair market value, as defined in the 2016 Plan, of the shares on the date of grant. At the time of grant, the Committee will have sole discretion in determining when stock options are exercisable and when they expire, except that the term of a stock option cannot exceed 10 years subject to certain conditions. Stock Incentive Plans - The following information relates to our long-term incentive plans: December 31, 2021 2016 Plan 2008 Plan Maximum number of securities for issuance 5,750,000 Number of awards available to be granted (1) 2,800,002 Number of unvested restricted stock/performance-based restricted stock/restricted stock units outstanding 1,900,986 — Number of options outstanding — 13,000 Number of options exercisable — 13,000 .

Stockholders’ Equity (continued) Restricted Stock and Restricted Stock Units – During the three years presented below, the Committee approved various grants under the 2016 Plan of shares of restricted stock to certain executives and employees. These shares have vesting provisions including vesting at the end of each one-year period at the rate of one-third and voting rights. Sales of these shares are restricted prior to the date of vesting. Pursuant to the terms of the underlying restricted stock agreements, unvested restricted shares will immediately vest upon the occurrence of a change in control (as defined by the agreement), termination without cause or death. During 2021, the Committee approved the grant of shares of restricted stock and performance-based restricted stock (“PBRS”) to certain executives and the grant of shares of restricted stock units to certain employees. Pursuant to the terms of the performance-based awards outstanding as of the CoC event associated with the Exchange Transaction discussed in Note 2, additional shares of restricted stock were issued including the satisfaction of certain performance conditions above the target performance level. Upon the CoC event, such restricted stock is subject only to the time-based vesting conditions set forth in the applicable award agreement and the 2016 Plan. The shares discussed above are reflected in the 2021 information below. During 2020, the Committee approved the grant of shares of restricted stock and PBRS to a certain executive. These shares are reflected in the 2020 information below. On December 31, 2019, the Committee approved the grant of approximately 358,000 shares of performance-based restricted stock to certain executives. Key information to finalize the performance targets and range of vesting shares was approved by the Board during February 2020, which is the grant date for financial reporting purposes. The terms of this PBRS grant are discussed below and these PBRS shares are reflected in the 2020 information below.

Reserved Shares of Common Stock – As of December 31, 2021, we have reserved 0.2 million shares of common stock issuable upon vesting of equity awards pursuant to their respective terms. NOL Rights Agreement - On July 6, 2020, we entered into the Section 382 Rights Agreement (the “NOL Rights Agreement”), dated as of July 6, 2020, between LSB and Computershare Trust Company, N.A., as rights agent. During 2021, the NOL Rights Agreement was ratified by our shareholders at our annual meeting of shareholders held on May 14, 2021. The purpose of the NOL Rights Agreement is to facilitate our ability to preserve our NOLs and other tax attributes in order to be able to offset potential future income taxes for federal income tax purposes. Our ability to use these NOLs and other tax attributes would be substantially limited if we experience an “ownership change,” as defined in Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”). A company generally experiences an ownership change if the percentage of the value of its stock owned by certain 5% shareholders, as defined in Section 382 of the Code, increases by more than 50% points over a rolling three-year period. The NOL Rights Agreement is intended to reduce the likelihood of an ownership change under Section 382 of the Code by deterring any person (as defined in the NOL Rights Agreement) or group of affiliated or associated persons (“Group”) from acquiring beneficial ownership of 4.9% or more of our outstanding common shares. The rights issued under the NOL Rights Agreement will expire on the earliest to occur of (i) the close of business on the day following the certification of the voting results of our 2021 annual meeting of stockholders, or other duly held stockholders’ meeting, (ii) the date on which our Board determines in its sole discretion that (x) the NOL Rights Agreement is no longer necessary for the preservation of material valuable NOLs or tax attributes or (y) the NOLs and tax attributes have been fully utilized and may no longer be carried forward and (iii) the close of business on July 6, 2023. Our Board may, in its discretion, determine that a person, entity or a certain transaction is exempt from the operation of the NOL Rights Agreement or amend the terms of the rights. This summary description of the NOL Rights Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Rights Agreement filed as an exhibit to our Current Report on Form 8-K filed on July 6, 2020. |

Accounting Policies [Abstract] | |
Basis of Consolidation | Basis of Consolidation – LSB Industries, Inc. (“LSB”) and its subsidiaries (the “Company”, “we”, “us”, or “our”) are consolidated in the accompanying consolidated financial statements. LSB is a holding company with no significant operations or assets other than cash, cash equivalents, and investments in its subsidiaries. All material intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated. Certain prior period amounts reported in our consolidated financial statements and notes thereto have been reclassified to conform to current period presentation. |
Nature of Business | Nature of Business – We are engaged in the manufacture and sale of chemical products. The chemical products we primarily manufacture, market and sell are ammonia, fertilizer grade AN (“HDAN”) and UAN for agricultural applications, high purity and commercial grade ammonia, high purity AN, sulfuric acids, concentrated, blended and regular nitric acid, mixed nitrating acids, carbon dioxide, and diesel exhaust fluid for industrial applications, and industrial grade AN (“LDAN”) and solutions for the mining industry. We manufacture and distribute our products in four facilities; three of which we own and are located in El Dorado, Arkansas (the “El Dorado Facility”); Cherokee, Alabama (the “Cherokee Facility”); and Pryor, Oklahoma (the “Pryor Facility”); and one of which we operate on behalf of Covestro LLC in Baytown, Texas (the “Baytown Facility”). Sales to customers include farmers, ranchers, fertilizer dealers and distributors primarily in the ranch land and grain production markets in the United States (“U.S.”); industrial users of acids throughout the U.S. and parts of Canada; and explosive manufacturers in the U.S. and parts of Mexico and Canada. |
Use of Estimates | Use of Estimates – The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. |
Increase in Authorized Shares of Common Stock and a Stock Dividend | Increase in Authorized Shares of Common Stock and a Stock Dividend – In September 2021, LSB held a Special Meeting of Stockholders (the “Special Meeting”). At the Special Meeting, our stockholders approved: • • • In August 2021, our Board of Directors (“Board”) declared a common stock dividend (“Special Dividend”) contingent on the closing of the Exchange Transaction (as defined below). As a result of the stockholders’ approval and the closing of the Exchange Transaction, such Special Dividend was effected in the form of a stock dividend of 0.3 shares of our common stock, for each outstanding share of common stock (exclusive of common stock held in the treasury and the common shares issued as part of the Exchange Transaction For financial reporting purposes, the Special Dividend is accounted for as a stock split in the form of a stock dividend. As a result, all share and per share information herein has been retroactively adjusted to reflect the Special Dividend. In addition, pursuant to anti-dilution terms included in cash-based awards that were outstanding on the Record Date, the number of units of cash-based awards increased due to the Special Dividend. As a result, additional expense was recognized due to the Special Dividend. See additional discussion relating to these cash-based awards in Note 2. |
Redeemable Preferred Stocks | Redeemable Preferred Stocks – Our redeemable preferred stocks, prior to their redemption as discussed in Note 2, were redeemable outside our control and therefore were historically classified as temporary/mezzanine equity. The redeemable preferred stocks were recorded at fair value upon issuance, net of issuance costs or discounts. In addition, certain embedded features (“embedded derivative”) included in the Series E Redeemable Preferred required bifurcation and were classified as derivative liabilities. The carrying values of the redeemable preferred stocks were being increased since issuance by periodic accretions (including the amount for dividends earned but not yet declared or paid) using the interest method so that the carrying amount would equal the redemption value as of the earliest possible redemption date by the holder. The accretion was recorded to retained earnings/accumulated deficit. However, in September 2021, our redeemable preferred stocks were exchanged into our common stock as discussed in Note 2. As a result, the change in classification of the redeemable preferred stocks from temporary/mezzanine equity to permanent equity was considered an extinguishment. In conjunction with the extinguishment of the redeemable preferred stocks, the then current fair value of the bifurcated embedded derivative was applied to the carrying value of the redeemable preferred stocks at the time of the extinguishment. |
Equity Awards | Equity Awards – Equity award transactions with employees are measured based on the estimated fair value of the equity awards issued. For equity awards with service conditions that have a graded vesting period, we recognize compensation cost on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period for the entire award. Forfeitures are accounted for as they occur. We may issue new shares of common stock or may use treasury shares associated with the equity awards. See additional discussion relating to certain equity awards impacted by the Exchange Transaction in Note 11. |
Cash and Cash Equivalents | Cash and Cash Equivalents – Investments, which consist of highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less, are considered cash equivalents. |
Accounts Receivable | Accounts Receivable – Our accounts receivable is stated at net realizable value. This value includes an appropriate allowance for estimated uncollectible accounts to reflect any loss anticipated on accounts receivable balances. Our estimate is based on historical experience and periodic assessment of outstanding accounts receivable, particularly those accounts that are past due (based upon the terms of the sale). Our periodic assessment of our accounts receivable is based on our best estimate of amounts that are not recoverable. Any contract assets consist of receivables from contracts with customers. Our accounts receivable primarily relate to these contract assets and are presented in our consolidated balance sheets. Sales to our customers are generally unsecured. Credit is extended to customers based on an evaluation of the customer’s financial condition and other factors. Customer payments are generally due thirty to sixty days after the invoice date. Concentrations of credit risk with respect to trade receivables are monitored and this risk is reduced due to short-term payment terms relating to most of our significant customers. Six customers (including their affiliates) account for approximately 50% of our total net receivables at December 31, 2021 |
Inventories | Inventories – Inventories are stated at the lower of cost (determined using the first-in, first-out (“FIFO”) basis) or net realizable value, which is the estimated selling prices in the ordinary course of business, less reasonably predictable costs of completion, transportation or disposal. Finished goods include material, labor, and manufacturing overhead costs. Inventory reserves associated with cost exceeding net realizable value were not material at December |
Property, Plant and Equipment | Property, Plant and Equipment – Property, plant and equipment (“PP&E”) are stated at cost, net of accumulated depreciation amortization (“D&A”). Leases meeting finance lease criteria are capitalized in PP&E. Major renewals and improvements that increase the life, value, or productive capacity of assets are capitalized in PP&E while maintenance, repairs and minor renewals are expensed as incurred. In addition, maintenance, repairs and minor renewal costs relating to planned major maintenance activities (“Turnarounds”) are expensed as they are incurred. All long-lived assets relate to domestic operations. Fully depreciated assets are retained in PP&E and accumulated D&A accounts until disposal. When PP&E is retired, sold, or otherwise disposed, the asset’s carrying amount and related accumulated D&A is removed from the accounts and any gain or loss is included in other income or expense. For financial reporting purposes, depreciation of the costs of PP&E is primarily computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets. No provision for depreciation is made on construction in progress or capital spare parts until such time as the relevant assets are put into service. In general, assets held for sale are reported at the lower of the carrying amounts of the assets or fair values less costs to sell. |
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets | Impairment of Long-Lived Assets – Long-lived assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset (asset group) may not be recoverable. An asset’s fair value must be determined when the carrying amount of an asset (asset group) exceeds the estimated undiscounted future cash flows expected to result from the use of the asset (asset group) and/or its eventual disposition. If assets to be held and used are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is the amount by which the carrying amounts of the assets exceed the fair values of the assets as measured by the present value of future net cash flows expected to be generated by the assets or their appraised value. In general, and depending on the event or change in circumstances, our asset groups are reviewed for impairment on a facility-by-facility basis (such as the Cherokee, El Dorado or Pryor Facility). In addition, if the event or change in circumstance relates to the probable sale of an asset (or group of assets), the specific asset (or group of assets) is reviewed for impairment. |
Leases | Leases – We determine if an arrangement is a lease at inception or modification of a contract and classify each lease as either an operating or finance lease based on the terms of the contract. We reassess lease classification subsequent to commencement upon a change to the expected lease term or a modification to the contract. A contract contains a lease if the contract conveys the right to control the use of the identified property or equipment, explicitly or implicitly, for a period of time in exchange for consideration. Control of an underlying asset is conveyed if we obtain the rights to direct the use of and obtain substantially all of the economic benefit from the use of the underlying asset. An operating lease asset represents our right to use the underlying asset as a lessee for the lease term and an operating lease liability represent our obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Currently, most of our leases are classified as operating leases and primarily relate to railcars, other equipment and office space. Our leases that are classified as finance leases and other leases under which we are the lessor are not material. Variable payments are excluded from the present value of lease payments and are recognized in the period in which the payment is made. Our current leases do not contain residual value guarantees. Most of our leases do not include options to extend or terminate the lease prior to the end of the term. Since our leases generally do not provide an implicit rate, we use our incremental borrowing rate based on the lease term and other information available at the commencement date in determining the present value of lease payments. Lease expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the applicable lease term. |
Concentration of Credit Risks for Cash and Cash Equivalents and Sales | Concentration of Credit Risks for Cash and Cash Equivalents and Sales – Financial instruments relating to cash and cash equivalents potentially subject us to concentrations of credit risk. These financial instruments were held by financial institutions within the U. S. None of the financial instruments held within U.S. were in excess of the federally insured limits. Net sales to one customer, Koch Fertilizer LLC (“Koch Fertilizer”), represented approximately 15%, 11 approximately 12%, |
Accrued Insurance Liabilities | Accrued Insurance Liabilities – We are self-insured up to certain limits for group health, workers’ compensation and general liability claims. Above these limits, we have commercial stop-loss insurance coverage for our contractual exposure on group health claims and statutory limits under workers’ compensation obligatio ns. We also carry umbrella insurance of $100 million for most general liability and auto liability risks. We have a separate $50 million insurance policy covering pollution liability at our chemical facilities. Additional pollution liability coverage for our other facilities is provided in our general liability and umbrella policies . Our accrued self-insurance liabilities are based on estimates of claims, which include the reported incurred claims amounts plus the reserves established by our insurance adjustors and/or estimates provided by attorneys handling the claims, if any, up to the amount of our self-insurance limits. In addition, our accrued insurance liabilities include estimates of incurred, but not reported, claims based on historical claims experience. The determination of such claims and the appropriateness of the related liability is periodically reviewed and revised, if needed. Changes in these estimated liabilities are charged to operations. Potential legal fees and other directly related costs associated with insurance claims are not accrued but rather are expensed as incurred. Accrued insurance claims are included in accrued and other liabilities. It is reasonably possible that the actual development of claims could be different than our estimates. |
Executive Benefit Agreements | Executive Benefit Agreements – We are party to certain benefit agreements with certain key former executives. Costs associated with these individual benefit agreements are accrued based on the estimated remaining service period when such benefits become probable, or they will be paid. Total costs accrued equal the present value of specified payments to be made after benefits become payable. |
Income Taxes | Income Taxes – Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in the statement of operations in the period that includes the enactment date. We establish valuation allowances if we believe it is more-likely-than-not that some or all of deferred tax assets will not be realized. Significant judgment is applied in evaluating the need for and the magnitude of appropriate valuation allowances against deferred tax assets. In addition, we do not recognize a tax benefit unless we conclude that it is more likely than not that the benefit will be sustained on audit by the relevant taxing authorities based solely on the technical merits of the associated tax position. If the recognition threshold is met, we recognize a tax benefit measured at the largest amount of the tax benefit that, in our judgment, is greater than 50% likely to be realized. We record interest related to unrecognized tax positions in interest expense and penalties in operating other expense. Income tax benefits associated with amounts that are deductible for income tax purposes are recorded through the statement of operations. These benefits are principally generated from the vesting of restricted stock. We reduce income tax expense for investment tax credits in the period the credit arises and is earned. |
Contingencies | Contingencies – Certain conditions may exist which may result in a loss, but which will only be resolved when future events occur. We and our legal counsel assess such contingent liabilities, and such assessment inherently involves an exercise of judgment. If the assessment of a contingency indicates that it is probable that a loss has been incurred, we would accrue for such contingent losses when such losses can be reasonably estimated. If the assessment indicates that a potentially material loss contingency is not probable but reasonably possible, or is probable but cannot be estimated, the nature of the contingent liability, together with an estimate of the range of possible loss if determinable and material, would be disclosed. Estimates of potential legal fees and other directly related costs associated with contingencies are not accrued but rather are expensed as incurred. Loss contingency liabilities are included in current and noncurrent accrued and other liabilities and are based on current estimates that may be revised in the near term. In addition, we recognize contingent gains when such gains are realized or when the contingencies have been resolved (generally at the time a settlement has been reached). |
Asset Retirement Obligations | Asset Retirement Obligations – In general, we record the estimated fair value of an asset retirement obligation (“ARO”) associated with tangible long-lived assets in the period it is incurred and when there is sufficient information available to estimate the fair value. An ARO associated with long-lived assets is a legal obligation under existing or enacted law, statute, written or oral contract or legal construction. AROs, which are initially recorded based on estimated discounted cash flows, are accreted to full value over time through charges to cost of sales. In addition, we capitalize the corresponding asset retirement cost as PP&E, which cost is depreciated or depleted over the related asset’s respective useful life. We do not have any assets restricted for the purpose of settling our AROs. |
Revenue Recognition and Other Information | Revenue Recognition and Other Information Revenue Recognition and Performance Obligations We determine revenue recognition through the following steps: • Identification of the performance obligations in the contract; • Determination of the transaction price; • Allocation of the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and • Recognition of revenue when, or as, we satisfy a performance obligation. A performance obligation is a promise in a contract to transfer a distinct good or service to the customer and is the unit of account. A contract’s transaction price is allocated to each distinct performance obligation and recognized as revenue when, or as, the performance obligation is satisfied. Generally, satisfaction occurs when control of the promised goods is transferred to the customer or as services are rendered or completed in exchange for consideration in an amount for which we expect to be entitled. Generally, control is transferred when the preparation for shipment of the product to a customer has been completed. Most of our contracts contain a single performance obligation with the promise to transfer a specific product. Most of our revenue is recognized from performance obligations satisfied at a point in time, however, we have a performance obligation to perform certain services that are satisfied over a period of time. Revenue is recognized from this type of performance obligation as services are rendered and are based on the amount for which we have a right to invoice, which reflects the amount of expected consideration that corresponds directly with the value of the services performed. 1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued) Transaction Price Constraints and Variable Consideration For most of our contracts with customers, the transaction price from the inception of a contract is constrained to a short period of time (generally one month) as these contracts contain terms with variable consideration related to both price and quantity. These contract prices are often based on commodity indexes (such as NYMEX natural gas index) published monthly and the contract quantities are typically based on estimated ranges. The quantities become fixed and determinable over a period of time as each sale order is received from the customer. The nature of our contracts also gives rise to other types of variable consideration, including volume discounts and rebates, make-whole provisions, other pricing concessions, and short-fall charges. We estimate these amounts based on the expected amount to be provided to customers, which result in a transaction price adjustment reducing revenue (net sales) with the offset increasing contract or refund liabilities. These estimates are based on historical experience, anticipated performance and our best judgment at the time. We reassess these estimates on a quarterly basis. The aforementioned constraints over transaction prices in conjunction with the variable consideration included in our material contracts prevent a practical assignment of a specific dollar amount to performance obligations at the beginning and end of the period. Therefore, we have applied the variable consideration allocation exception. Future revenues to be earned from the satisfaction of performance obligations will be recognized when control transfers as goods are loaded and weighed or services are performed over the remaining duration of our contracts. Practical Expedients and Other Information We have applied the following practical expedients: • • • • All net sales and long-lived assets relate to domestic operations for the periods presented. In addition, net sales to non-U.S. customers were not material. |
Recognition of Incentive Tax Credits (Other Than Credits Associated with Income Taxes) | Recognition of Incentive Tax Credits (Other Than Credits Associated with Income Taxes) – If an incentive tax credit relates to a recovery of taxes (other than income taxes) incurred, we recognize the incentive tax credit when it is probable and reasonably estimable. If an incentive tax credit relates to an amount in excess of taxes incurred, the incentive tax credit is a contingent gain, which we recognize the incentive tax credit when it is realized or when the contingencies have been resolved (generally at the time a settlement has been reached). Amounts recoverable from the taxing authorities, if any, are included in accounts receivable. The same financial statement classification is used for an incentive tax credit as the associated tax incurred. At December 31, 2020, our incentive tax credits totaled |
Recognition of Insurance Recoveries | Recognition of Insurance Recoveries – If an insurance claim relates to a recovery of our losses, we recognize the recovery when it is probable and reasonably estimable. If our insurance claim relates to a contingent gain, we recognize the recovery when it is realized or when the contingencies have been resolved (generally at the time a settlement has been reached). Amounts recoverable from our insurance carriers, if any, are included in accounts receivable. An insurance recovery in excess of recoverable costs relating to a business interruption claim, if any, is a reduction to cost of sales. |
Cost of Sales | Cost of Sales – Cost of sales includes materials, labor and overhead costs, including depreciation, to manufacture the products sold plus inbound freight, purchasing and receiving costs, inspection costs, internal transfer costs, loading and handling costs, warehousing costs, railcar lease costs and outbound freight. Maintenance, repairs and minor renewal costs relating to Turnarounds are included in cost of sales as they are incurred. Precious metals used as a catalyst and consumed during the manufacturing process are included in cost of sales. Recoveries and gains from precious metals and business interruption insurance claims, if any, are reductions to cost of sales. |
Selling, General and Administrative Expense | Selling, General and Administrative Expense – Selling, general and administrative expense (“SG&A”) includes costs associated with the sales, marketing and administrative functions. Such costs include personnel costs, including benefits, professional fees, office and occupancy costs associated with the sales, marketing and administrative functions. Also included in SG&A are any distribution fees paid to third parties to distribute our products. |
Derivatives, Hedges and Financial Instruments | Derivatives, Hedges and Financial Instruments – Derivatives are recognized in the balance sheet and are measured at fair value. Changes in fair value of derivatives are recorded in results of operations unless the normal purchase or sale exceptions apply, or hedge accounting is elected. The fair value amounts recognized for our derivative contracts executed with the same counterparty under a master netting arrangement may be offset. We have the choice to offset or not, but that choice must be applied consistently. A master netting arrangement exists if the reporting entity has multiple contracts with a single counterparty that are subject to a contractual agreement that provides for the net settlement of all contracts through a single payment in a single currency in the event of default on or termination of any one contract. Offsetting the fair values recognized for the derivative contracts outstanding with a single counterparty results in the net fair value of the transactions being reported as an asset or a liability in the balance sheet. When applicable, we present the fair values of our derivative contracts under master netting agreements using a gross fair value presentation. Assets and liabilities measured at fair value are classified using the following hierarchy, which is based upon the transparency of inputs to the valuation as of the measurement date: Level 1 - Valuations of contracts classified as Level 1 are based on quoted prices in active markets for identical contracts. Level 2 - Valuations of contracts classified as Level 2 are based on quoted prices for similar contracts and valuation inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for these contracts. Level 3 - Valuations of assets and liabilities classified as Level 3 are based on prices or valuation techniques that require inputs that are both unobservable and significant to the overall fair value measurement. At December 31, 2021 and 2020, we did not have any financial instruments with fair values materially different from their carrying amounts (which excludes issuance costs, if applicable). The fair value of financial instruments is not indicative of the overall fair value of our assets and liabilities since financial instruments do not include all assets, including intangibles, and all liabilities. |
Income (Loss) per Common Share | Income (Loss) per Common Share – Net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders is computed by adjusting net income (loss) by the amount of dividends and dividend requirements (including the deemed dividend discussed in Note 2) on preferred stocks and the accretion of redeemable preferred stocks, if applicable. Basic loss per common share is computed by dividing net loss attributable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding, excluding contingently issuable common shares (unvested restricted stock), if applicable. For periods we earn net income, a proportional share of net income is allocated to participating securities, if applicable, determined by dividing total weighted average participating securities by the sum of the total weighted average common shares and participating securities (the “two-class method”). Certain securities (Series E Redeemable Preferred prior to the Exchange Transaction and restricted stock units) participate in dividends declared on our common stock and are therefore considered to be participating securities. Participating securities have the effect of diluting both basic and diluted income per common share during periods of net income. For periods we incur a net loss, no loss is allocated to participating securities because they have no contractual obligation to share in our losses. Diluted loss per common share is computed after giving consideration to the dilutive effect of our potential common stock instruments that are outstanding during the period, except where such non-participating securities would be anti-dilutive. |

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements | Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncement ASU 2019-12 – In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-12 , Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes, which affects general principles within Topic 740, Income Taxes. The amendments of ASU 2019-12 are meant to simplify and reduce the cost of accounting for income taxes. The ASU removes certain exceptions to the general framework and also seeks to simplify and/or clarify accounting for income taxes by adding certain requirements that would simplify GAAP for financial statement preparers. On January 1, 2021, we adopted ASU 2019-12, which did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements or related disclosures. 1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued) Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements ASU 2020-06 - In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-06, Debt-Debt with Conversion and other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging – Contracts in Entity’s own Equity (Subtopic 815-40) . This ASU addresses the complexity associated with applying GAAP to certain financial instruments with characteristics of liabilities and equity. The ASU includes amendments to the guidance on convertible instruments and the derivative scope exception for contracts in an entity’s own equity and simplifies the accounting for convertible instruments which include beneficial conversion features or cash conversion features by removing certain separation models. Additionally, the ASU requires entities to use the “if-converted” method when calculating diluted earnings per share for convertible instruments. This ASU will be effective for us on January 1, 2024; however, early adoption is permitted, which began January 1, 2021. We are evaluating the timing and the effect of our pending adoption of this ASU on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures at this time. ASU 2020-04 – In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04 , Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting, which provides optional guidance for a limited time to ease the potential accounting burden associated with transitioning away from reference rates such as LIBOR that are expected to be discontinued. This ASU provides exceptions and optional expedients for applying GAAP to contract modifications, hedging relationships, and other transactions that reference LIBOR or other reference rates to be discontinued as a result of reference rate reform. They do not apply to modifications made or hedges entered into or evaluated after December 31, 2022, unless the hedging relationships existed as of that date and optional expedients for them were elected and retained through the end of the hedging relationship. This ASU became effective upon issuance. We continue to evaluate the effect of this ASU and plan to utilize this relief for our debt agreements that include LIBOR rates. |
