| Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract] | |
| INCOME TAXES | INCOME TAXES We recorded an income tax expense of $0.9 million related to loss before taxes of $4.2 million for the three months ended December 28, 2025. We recorded an income tax expense of $3.2 million related to loss before taxes of $13.0 million for the three months ended December 29, 2024. The effective income tax rate for the three months ended December 28, 2025, was (21.4)% . The effective income tax rate for the three months ended December 29, 2024, was (25.0)%. The primary differences between these rates and the U.S. federal statutory rate of 21% are because of state taxes, non-deductible expenses, increase in valuation allowance, and adjustments to reserves for uncertain tax positions, including any related interest. We are evaluating the income tax impacts of the private placement financing and Second Amendment to the Credit Agreement as related to the subsequent events disclosed in Note 12.
