Use of Estimates:The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principlesGAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements. These estimates may also affect the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates and assumptions.assumptions, based on a number of factors including the current macroeconomic conditions such as inflation and supply chain disruptions, as well as risks set forth in our Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Cash, Cash Equivalents, Restricted Cash, and Restricted Cash Equivalents: The Company considers all investments with an initial maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards: Standards (Not Yet Adopted): In August 2017,June 2022, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2017-12, “Derivatives and Hedging2022-03, “Fair Value Measurement (Topic 815)820): Targeted ImprovementsFair Value Measurement of Equity Securities Subject to Accounting for Hedging Activities.Contractual Sale Restrictions.” The ASU expandsamendments in this update clarify that a contractual restriction on the sale of an equity security is not considered part of the unit of account of the security and, enhances hedge accountingtherefore, is not considered in measuring fair value.

In May 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-09, “Compensation – Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Scope of Modification Accounting.” The FASB issued the guidance to provide clarity as to when modification accounting should be applied when there is a change to the terms or conditions of a share-based payment award in order to prevent diversity in practice. The ASU requires modification accounting to be applied unless all of the following conditions exist: (1) the fair value (or calculated value or intrinsic value, if such measurement is used) of the modified award is the same as the fair value (or calculated value or intrinsic value, if such measurement is used) of the original award before the original award is modified; if the modification does not affect any of the inputs to the valuation, the entity is not required to estimate the value immediately before and after the modification; (2) the vesting conditions of the modified award are the same as the vesting conditions of the original award before it was modified; and (3) the classification of the modified award as an equity instrument or a liability instrument is the same as the classification of the original award before it was modified.

Recently Adopted Accounting Standards: In March 2022, the FASB issued ASU 2022-02, “Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326): Troubled Debt Restructurings and Vintage Disclosures.” For public business entities, the amendments in this update require that an entity disclose current-period gross write-offs by year of origination for financing receivables and net investments in leases within the scope of Subtopic 326-20. The amendments in this update were effective for Chart for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017. Early2022. We adopted this guidance effective January 1, 2023. The adoption is permitted. The Company is currently assessing the effect that the ASU willof this guidance did not have a material impact on the Company’sour financial position, results of operations andor disclosures.
In March 2017,October 2021, the FASB issued ASU 2017-07, “Compensation – Retirement Benefits2021-08, “Business Combinations (Topic 715)805): Improving the Presentation of Net Periodic Pension CostAccounting for Contract Assets and Net Periodic Postretirement Benefit Cost.Contract Liabilities from Contracts with Customers.” The new guidance requires companiesamendments in this update require that an entity (acquirer) recognize and measure contract assets and contract liabilities acquired in a business combination in accordance with sponsored defined benefit pension and/or other postretirement benefit plans to presentTopic 606.

The other components of net periodic benefit cost will be presented separately and not included in operating income. In addition, only service coststhis update are eligible to be capitalized as an asset. The standard will be effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017,2022, including interim periods within those years, and thefiscal years. We adopted this guidance will generally be applied retrospectively, whereas the capitalizationeffective April 1, 2022. The adoption of the service cost component will be applied prospectively. Early adoption is permitted with all of the amendments adopted in the same period. If an entity early adopts thethis guidance in an interim period, any adjustments must be reflected as of the beginning of the fiscal year that includes that interim period. The Company is currently assessing the effect that the ASU willdid not have a material impact on the Company’sour financial position, results of operations andor disclosures.
In January 2017,March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2017-04, “Intangibles – Goodwill and Other2020-04, “Reference Rate Reform (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment.” The new guidance eliminates the requirement to calculate the implied fair value of goodwill (Step 2848), Facilitation of the current guidance’s goodwill impairment test) to measure a goodwill impairment charge. Instead, entities will record an impairment charge basedEffects of Reference Rate Reform on the excess of a reporting unit’s carrying amount over its fair value (i.e., measure the charge based on current guidance’s Step 1). The guidance will be applied prospectively for annualFinancial Reporting,” and interim impairment tests beginning after December 15, 2019. Early adoption is permitted for annual and interim goodwill impairment testing dates afterin January 1, 2017. The adoption of this ASU would not materially impact the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements unless Step 1 of the annual goodwill impairment test fails.
In August 2016,2021, the FASB subsequently issued ASU 2016-15, “Statement of Cash Flows2021-01, “Reference Rate Reform (Topic 230)848): Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments.Scope.The FASB issued the update to clarify how entities should classify certain cash receipts and cash payments on the statement of cash flows. The new guidance also clarifies how the predominance principle should be applied when cash receipts and cash payments have aspects of more than one class of cash flows. The standard will be effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those years, and the guidance will generally be applied retrospectively. Early adoption is permitted with all of the amendments adopted in the same period. If an entity early adopts the guidance in an interim period, any adjustments must be reflected as of the beginning of the fiscal year that includes that interim period. The Company is currently assessing the effect that the ASU will have on the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of cash flows.
In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, “Leases (Topic 842).” The FASB issued the update to require the recognition of lease assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet of lessees. The standard will be effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within such fiscal years. The ASU requires a modified retrospective transition method with the option to elect a package of practical expedients. Early adoption is permitted. The Company expects adoption to increase the assets and liabilities recorded on its condensed consolidated balance sheet and increase the level of disclosures related to leases. The Company also expects that adoption of the new standard will require changes to its internal controls to support recognition and disclosure requirements under the new standard. The Company is currently assessing the effect that the ASU will have on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.
In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606)” and subsequently issued additional guidance that modified ASU 2014-09. ASU 2014-092020-04 and the subsequent modifications are identified as “Accounting Standards CodificationASC 848 (“ASC”) 606.” ASC 606 replaces existing revenue recognition rules with a comprehensive revenue measurement848”). ASC 848 simplifies the accounting for modifying contracts (including those in hedging relationships) that refer to LIBOR and recognition standard and provides for expanded disclosure requirements. The update requires entities to recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amountother interbank offered rates that reflects the consideration to which the entity expectsare expected to be entitleddiscontinued due to reference rate reform. The amendments in exchange for those goods or services. ASC 606 applies to all contracts with customers except those that848 are within the scope of other topics in the FASB ASC. ASC 606 becomes effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017. The Company plans to adopt ASC 606all entities as of January 1, 2018March 12, 2020 through December 31, 2022. An entity may elect to apply the amendments for contract modifications by Topic or Industry Subtopic as of any date from the beginning of an interim period that includes or is subsequent to March 12, 2020, or prospectively from a date within an interim period that includes or is subsequent to March 12, 2020, up to the date that the financial statements are available to be issued. Once elected for a Topic or an Industry Subtopic, the amendments in ASC 848 must be applied prospectively for all eligible contract modifications for that Topic or Industry Subtopic. Chart transitioned away from LIBOR rates on our debt facilities in early 2023 at which time we adopted this guidance. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on our financial position, results of operations or disclosures.

Other Businesses Sold or to be Sold
Also, as previously announced, on July 26, 2023 we signed a definitive agreement to sell our Cofimco fans business (“Cofimco”) to PX3 Partners, the London headquartered private equity firm, for an $80.0 purchase price. The transaction is anticipated to close on October 31, 2023. Cofimco operates within our Heat Transfer Systems and Repair, Service & Leasing segments.
We have determined that has historically been recognized when products are shipped, title has transferred and collection is reasonably assured will meetthe planned disposal of Cofimco meets the criteria for using point-in-time revenue recognition. The Company also expects that the majorityheld for sale presentation as of the revenue that has historically been recognized using the percentage of completion method of accounting will meet the criteria for over time revenue recognition. At this time, the Company has identified the following impacts related to timing of revenue recognition:
Certain operations that have historically recognized revenue at a point-in-time will be required to change to the over time revenue recognition model as certain contracts contain language that meets the over time criteria established in ASC 606.
A portion of the revenue that has been deferred due to the current guidance for bill and hold revenues will be required to be recognized when the manufacturing process has been completed.
The Company is in the process of quantifying the above changes but does not expect them to be material to its consolidated financial statements. The Company expects adoption to increase the level of disclosures related to revenue recognition. In addition, the Company is in the process of identifying appropriate changes to its accounting policies, information technology systems, business processes, and internal control over financial reporting to support recognition under the new standard. The Company plans to complete the design of any necessary changes to its business processes, controls and systems and implement the changes over the remainder of 2017.
Recently Adopted Accounting Standards: In November 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-18, “Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Restricted Cash.” The FASB issued the update to clarify how restricted cash or restricted cash equivalents should be presented in the statement of cash flows. The Company early adopted the amendments provided in ASU 2016-18 effective January 1, 2017 as reflected in these condensed consolidated financial statements to provide financial statement users with more transparent disclosure about restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents. The amendments were applied using a retrospective transition method to each period presented. Prior periods were not restated as the impact of adoption of ASU 2016-18 was not material to prior periods. The cash, cash equivalents, restricted cash, and restricted cash equivalents balance included $8,785 of restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents at September 30, 2017. Restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents are included2023. The financial position of Cofimco is presented as held for sale in other current assets and other assets in the accompanyingour condensed consolidated balance sheet at September 30, 2017.2023 and consists of goodwill, identifiable intangible assets, and other net assets of $22.5, $27.1, and $6.6, respectively. Financial results of Cofimco are reported in continuing operations. No loss has been recognized on designation as held for sale.
In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-09, “Compensation – Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting.” The FASB issued the update to change certain aspects of accounting for share-based payments to employees. The update eliminated additional paid-in-capital poolsWe signed and requires all income tax effects of awards to be recognized in the statements of operations when the awards vest or settle. The Company prospectively recognized the excess income tax effects of awards as income tax expense or benefit in the condensed statements of operations and has elected to continue to estimate the number of share-based awards expected to vest rather than electing to account for forfeitures as they occur. In addition, the Company prospectively recognized the excess tax benefits along with other income tax cash flows as an operating activity in the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows. The Company adopted this guidance effective January 1, 2017. The adoption of the guidance did not have a material impactclosed on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.
In July 2015,divestiture of our American Fans business for $111.0 all-cash to Arcline Investment Management, L.P. on October 26, 2023 (multiples in-line with prior Chart transactions). Effective as of October 26, 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2015-11, “Simplifying the Measurementbusiness is no longer part of Inventory.” The amendments require an entity to measure inventory at the lowerChart. American Fans operated within all four of cost and net realizable value. Net realizable value is the estimated selling prices in the ordinary course of business, less reasonably predictable costs of completion, disposal, and transportation. The Company adopted this guidance prospectively for the fiscal year beginning January 1, 2017. The adoption of the guidance did not have a material impactour segments.

Total Assets
Corporate assets mainly include cash and cash equivalents and long-term deferred income taxes as well as certain corporate-specific property, plant and equipment, net and certain investments. Our allocation methodology for property, plant and equipment, net of the reportable segments differs from our allocation method of depreciation expense of a reportable segment and therefore, depreciation expense does not entirely align with the related depreciable assets of the reportable segments. Furthermore, since finite-lived intangible assets are excluded from total assets of reportable segments while amortization expense is allocated to each of our reportable segments, amortization expense by segment inherently does not align with the related amortizable intangible assets of the reportable segments.

Contract assets and contract liabilities have increased significantly as a result of the Howden acquisition. See Note 13, “Business Combinations”, for more information.
Revenue recognized for the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, that was included in the contract liabilities balance at the lowerbeginning of cost or market with cost being determined byeach year was $17.3 and $17.7, respectively. Revenue recognized for the first-in, first-out (“FIFO”) method. Based onnine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, that was included in the new guidance, the Company measures its inventorycontract liabilities balance at the lowerbeginning of costeach year was $162.7 and $114.6, respectively. The amount of revenue recognized during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 from performance obligations satisfied or net realizable value with net realizable value beingpartially satisfied in previous periods as a result of changes in the estimates of variable consideration related to long-term contracts, was not significant.
Remaining Performance Obligations
Remaining performance obligations represent the transaction price of firm signed purchase orders or other written contractual commitments from customers for which work has not been performed, or is partially completed, and excludes unexercised contract options and potential orders. As of September 30, 2023, the estimated selling pricesrevenue expected to be recognized in the ordinary coursefuture related to remaining performance obligations was $4,140.7. We expect to recognize revenue on over 55% of the remaining performance obligations over the next 12 months and the remaining over the next few years thereafter.

NOTE6 — Leases
Lessee Accounting
The Company leases certain office spaces, warehouses, facilities, vehicles and equipment. Our leases have maturity dates ranging from September 2023 to November 2034. Leases with an initial term of twelve months or less are not recorded on the balance sheet. Operating lease right-of-use (“ROU”) assets are classified as property, plant and equipment, net in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. Finance lease ROU assets are classified as other assets in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. Operating lease liabilities are classified as operating lease liabilities, current and operating lease liabilities, non-current. Finance lease liabilities are classified as other current liabilities and other long-term liabilities in the consolidated balances sheets.
We incurred $13.8 and $4.7 of rental expense under operating leases for the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, and $23.6 and $12.3 for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Certain operating leases contain rent escalation clauses and lease concessions that require additional rental payments in the later years of the term. Rent expense for these types of leases is recognized on a straight-line basis over the minimum lease term. Adjustments for straight-line rental expense for the respective periods was not material and as such, the majority of expense recognized was reflected in cash provided by operating activities for the respective periods. This expense consisted primarily of payments for base rent on building and equipment leases. Payments related to short-term lease costs and taxes and variable service charges on leased properties were immaterial. In addition, we have the right, but no obligation, to renew certain leases for various renewal terms.
We incurred $0.2 and $0.1 of finance lease interest for the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, and $0.4 and $0.2 for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

Lessor Accounting
We lease equipment manufactured by Chart primarily through our Cryo-Lease program as sales-type and operating leases. As of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, our short-term net investment in sales-type leases was $18.4 and $14.5, respectively, and is included in other current assets in our condensed consolidated balance sheets. Our long-term net investment in sales type leases was $54.0 and $44.3 as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively, and is included in other assets in our condensed consolidated balance sheets. For sales type leases, interest income was $0.8 and $0.6 in the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss) for the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, and $2.3 and $1.7 for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively.
Operating leases offered by Chart may include early termination options. At the end of a lease, a lessee generally has the option to either extend the lease, purchase the underlying equipment for a fixed price or return it to Chart. The lease agreements clearly define applicable return conditions and remedies for non-compliance to ensure that leased equipment will be in good operating condition upon return.

The outstanding aggregate principal amount of the Company’s 2.0% Convertible Senior Subordinated Notes due August 1, 20182030 (the “Convertible“Secured Notes”) is $250,000. The Convertible Notesand senior unsecured notes due 2031 (the “Unsecured Notes”) bear interest at a fixed raterates of 2.0%7.500% and 9.500% per year, respectively.

(2)A term loan due March 2030 was drawn prior to September 30, 2023 in conjunction with the Howden Acquisition. On June 30, 2023, we drew $250.0 on an incremental term loan due March 2030. As of September 30, 2023, there were $1,776.5 in borrowings outstanding under term loans due March 2030 bearing an interest rate at issuance was 7.9%of 9.2%. See below for more information.
The Convertible Notes are senior subordinated unsecured obligations(3)As of the Company and are not guaranteed by any of the Company’s subsidiaries. The Convertible Notes are seniorSeptember 30, 2023, there were $203.8 in right of payment to the Company’s future subordinated debt, equal in right of payment with the Company’s future senior subordinated debt, and are subordinated in right of payment to the Company’s existing and future senior indebtedness, including indebtednessborrowings outstanding under the Company’s existingsenior secured revolving credit agreement.
In connection with the issuancefacility due October 2026 bearing an interest rate of the Convertible Notes, the Company entered into privately-negotiated convertible note hedge and capped call transactions with affiliates of certain of the underwriters (the “Option Counterparties”). The convertible note hedge and capped call transactions relate to, collectively, 3,622 shares, which represents the number of shares of the Company’s common stock underlying the Convertible Notes, subject to anti-dilution adjustments substantially similar to those applicable to the Convertible Notes. These convertible note hedge and capped call transactions are expected to reduce the potential dilution with respect to the Company’s common stock upon conversion of the Convertible Notes and/or reduce the Company’s exposure to potential cash or stock payments that may be required upon conversion of the Convertible Notes, except, in the case of the capped call transactions, to the extent that the market price per share of the Company’s common stock exceeds the cap price of the capped call transactions. The Company also entered into separate warrant transactions with the Option Counterparties initially relating to the number of shares of the Company’s common stock underlying the convertible note hedge transactions, subject to customary anti-dilution adjustments. The warrant transactions will have a dilutive effect with respect to the Company’s common stock to the extent that the price per share of the Company’s common stock exceeds the strike price of the warrants unless the Company elects, subject to certain conditions, to settle the warrants in cash. These warrants were exercisable7.0% (3.4% as of December 31, 2022) and $241.1 in letters of credit and bank guarantees outstanding supported by the issuance datesenior secured revolving credit facility due 2026.

Proceeds received from the issuance of the warrants totaled approximately $48,848 and were recorded as an addition to additional paid-in-capital. The net cost of the convertible note hedge and capped call transactions, taking into account the proceeds from the issuance of the warrants, was approximately $17,638.
In accordance with ASC 815, contracts are initially classified as equity if (1) the contract requires physical settlement or net-share settlement, or (2) the contract gives the entity a choice of net-cash settlement in its own shares (physical settlement or net-share settlement). The Company concluded that the settlement terms of the convertible note hedge, capped call, and warrant transactions permit net-share settlement. As such, the convertible note hedge, capped call, and warrant transactions were recorded in equity.

2024 Convertible Notes
On November 6, 2017, we issued 1.00% Convertible Senior Subordinated Notes due November 2024 (the “2024 Notes”) in the aggregate principal amount of $258.8, pursuant to an Indenture, dated as of such date (the “Indenture”). On December 31, 2020, we entered into the First Supplemental Indenture (the “Supplemental Indenture”) to the Indenture, between Chart and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as trustee, governing the 2024 Notes. Pursuant to the Supplemental Indenture, Chart irrevocably elected (i) to eliminate Chart’s option to elect Physical Settlement (as defined in the Indenture) on any conversion of 2024 Notes that occurs on or after the date of the Supplemental Indenture and (ii) that, with respect to any Combination Settlement (as defined in the Indenture) for a conversion of 2024 Notes, the Specified Dollar Amount (as defined in the Indenture) that will be settled in cash per $1,000 principal amount of the Notes shall be no lower than $1,000. The 2024 Notes bear interest at an annual rate of 1.00%, payable on May 15 and November 15 of each year, beginning on May 15, 2018, and will mature on November 15, 2024 unless earlier converted or repurchased.
The 2024 Notes are senior subordinated unsecured obligations of the Company and Chart Cryogenic Distribution Equipment (Changzhou) Company Limited (“CCDEC”), a joint ventureare not guaranteed by any of our subsidiaries. The 2024 Notes are senior in right of payment to our future subordinated debt, equal in right of payment with the Company’s future senior subordinated debt and are subordinated in right of payment to our existing and future senior indebtedness, including indebtedness under our existing credit agreement.
A conversion of the Company, maintain joint banking facilities (the “China Facilities”)2024 Notes may be settled in either (1) cash or (2) cash for the principal amount of the 2024 Notes and any combination of cash and shares for the excess settlement amount above the principal amount of the 2024 Notes, at our election (subject to, and in accordance with, the settlement provisions of the Indenture and Supplemental Indenture).
The initial conversion rate for the 2024 Notes is 17.0285 shares of common stock (subject to adjustment as provided for in the Indenture) per $1,000 principal amount of the 2024 Notes, which includeis equal to an initial conversion price of approximately $58.725 per share, representing a revolving facility with 50.0 million Chinese yuan (equivalentconversion premium of approximately 35% above the closing price of our common stock of $43.50 per share on October 31, 2017. In addition, following certain corporate events that occur prior to $7,534) in borrowing capacity which can be utilized for either revolving loans, bonds/guarantees, or bank draft acceptances. Any borrowings made by CCESC, CCDEC or Chengdu under the China Facilities are guaranteed by the Company.

CCDEC maintains an unsecured credit facility whereby CCDEC may borrow up to 30.0 million Chinese yuan (equivalent to $4,520) for working capital purposes. At September 30, 2017, there was 15.0 million Chinese yuan (equivalent to $2,260) outstanding under this facility, bearing interest at 4.35%.

closing common stock price of $169.12 at the end of the thirdperiod exceeded the conversion price of $58.725, the if-converted value exceeded the principal amount of the 2024 Notes by $485.9 at September 30, 2023. As described below, we entered into convertible note hedge transactions, which are expected to reduce the potential dilution with respect to our common stock upon conversion of the 2024 Notes.
Holders of the 2024 Notes may convert their 2024 Notes at their option at any time prior to the close of business on the business day immediately preceding August 15, 2024 only under the following circumstances: (1) during any fiscal quarter commencing after December 31, 2017 (and only during such fiscal quarter), if the last reported sale price of 2017.our common stock for at least 20 trading days (whether or not consecutive) during the period of 30 consecutive trading days ending on, and including, the last trading day of the immediately preceding fiscal quarter is greater than or equal to 130% of the applicable conversion price for the 2024 Notes on each applicable trading day; (2) during the five business day period after any 10 consecutive trading day period (the “measurement period”) in which the “trading price” (as defined in the Indenture) per one thousand U.S. dollar principal amount of Notes for each trading day of such measurement period was less than 97% of the product of the last reported sale price of our common stock and the applicable conversion rate for the 2024 Notes on each such trading day; or (3) upon the occurrence of specified corporate events described in the Indenture. On or after August 15, 2024 until the close of business on the second scheduled trading day immediately preceding November 15, 2024, holders may convert their 2024 Notes at the option of the holder regardless of the foregoing circumstances.
CCESCAs of October 1, 2023, the 2024 Notes continue to be convertible at the option of the shareholders. This conversion right, which will remain available until December 31, 2023, was triggered since the closing price of our common stock was greater than or equal to $76.3425 (130% of the conversion price of the 2024 Notes) for at least 20 trading days during the last 30 trading days ending on September 30, 2023. Since the holders of the 2024 Notes could potentially convert their 2024 Notes at their option during the three month period subsequent to September 30, 2023, the $258.7 principal amount of the 2024 Notes was classified as a current liability in the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet at September 30, 2023. As of December 31, 2022, the 2024 Notes were convertible at the option of the holders, and the liability component of the 2024 Notes was classified as a current liability. We will reassess the convertibility of the 2024 Notes and the related balance sheet classification on a quarterly basis. There have been no significant conversions as of the date of this filing.

Convertible Note Hedge and Warrant Transactions Associated with the 2024 Notes
In connection with the pricing of the 2024 Notes, we entered into convertible note hedge transactions (the “Note Hedge Transactions”) with certain parties, including the initial purchasers of the 2024 Notes (the “Option Counterparties”). The Note Hedge Transactions are expected generally to reduce the potential dilution upon any future conversion of the 2024 Notes. Payments for the Note Hedge Transactions totaled approximately $59.5 and were recorded as a reduction to additional paid-in capital in the December 31, 2017 consolidated balance sheet.
We also entered into separate, privately negotiated warrant transactions (the “Warrant Transactions”) with the Option Counterparties to acquire up to 4.41 shares of our common stock. Proceeds received from the issuance of the Warrant Transactions totaled approximately $46.0 and were recorded as an addition to additional paid-in capital in the December 31, 2017 consolidated balance sheet. The strike price of the Warrant Transactions will initially be $71.775 per share (subject to adjustment), which is approximately 65% above the last reported sale price of our common stock on October 31, 2017. The Warrant Transactions could have a dilutive effect to our stockholders to the extent that the market price per share of our common stock, as measured under the terms of the Warrant Transactions, exceeds the applicable strike price of the warrants.
The Note Hedge Transactions and Warrant Transactions effectively increased the conversion price of the 2024 Notes. The net cost of the Note Hedge Transactions and Warrant Transactions was approximately $13.5.

Other Debt Facilities

NOTE 10 — Shareholders' Equity
Series B Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock
On December 13, 2022, we completed a preferred stock offering, through which Chart issued and sold 8.050 million depositary shares, each representing a 1/20th interest in a share of Chart’s 6.75% Series B Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock, liquidation preference $1,000.00 per share, par value $0.01 per share (the “Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock”). The amount issued included 1.050 million depositary shares issued pursuant to the exercise in full of the option granted to the underwriters to purchase additional depositary shares. We received gross proceeds of $402.5 from the issuance of shares less $14.4 of equity issuance costs. The proceeds were used to fund our Howden Acquisition.
Dividends: Dividends on the Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock will be payable on a cumulative basis when, as and if declared at an annual rate of 6.75% on the liquidation value of $1,000 per share. Chart may pay declared dividends in cash or, subject to certain limitations, in shares of common stock, or in any combination of cash and shares of common stock on March 15, June 15, September 15 and December 15 of each year, commencing on March 15, 2023 and ending on, and including, December 15, 2025. The accumulated but undeclared amount of dividends as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 was $1.1 and $1.4, respectively, and was treated as a reduction to income attributable to common shareholders in the computation of earnings per share.
Mandatory Conversion: Unless earlier converted, each share of the Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock will automatically convert on the mandatory conversion date, which is expected to be December 15, 2025, into not less than 7.0520 and not more than 8.4620 shares of common stock per share of Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock, depending on the applicable market value and subject to certain anti-dilution adjustments. Correspondingly, the conversion rate per depositary share will be not less than 0.3526 and not more than 0.4231 shares of common stock per depositary share. The conversion rate will be determined based on a preceding 20-day volume-weighted-average-price of common stock.
The following table illustrates the conversion rate per share of the Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock, subject to certain anti-dilution adjustments, based on the applicable market value of the common stock:
Applicable Market Value of Common StockConversion Rate per Share of Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock
Greater than $141.8037 (threshold appreciation price)7.0520 shares of common stock
Equal to or less than $141.8037 but greater than or equal to $118.1754Between 7.0520 and 8.4620 shares of common stock, determined by dividing 1000 by the applicable market value
Less than $118.1754 (initial price)8.4620 shares of common stock
The following table illustrates the conversion rate per depositary share, subject to certain anti-dilution adjustments, based on the applicable market value of the common stock:
Applicable Market Value of Common StockConversion Rate per Depositary Share
Greater than $141.8037 (threshold appreciation price)0.3526 shares of common stock
Equal to or less than $141.8037 but greater than or equal to $118.1754Between 0.3526 and 0.4231 shares of common stock, determined by dividing $50 by the applicable market value
Less than $118.1754 (initial price)0.4231 shares of common stock
Optional Conversion of the Holder: Other than during a fundamental change conversion period, at any time prior to December 15, 2025, a holder of the Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock may elect to convert such holder’s shares of Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock, in whole or in part, at the Minimum Conversion Rate of 7.0520 shares of common stock per share of Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock (equivalent to 0.3526 shares of common stock per depositary share), subject to certain anti-dilution and other adjustments. Because each depositary share represents a 1/20th fractional interest in a share of Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock, a holder of depositary shares may convert its depositary shares only in lots of 20 depositary shares.
Fundamental Change Conversion: If a fundamental change occurs on or prior to December 15, 2025, holders of the Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock will have the right to convert their shares of Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock, in whole or in part, into shares of common stock at the fundamental change conversion rate during the period beginning on, and

including, the effective date of such fundamental change and ending on, and including, the earlier of (a) the date that is 20 calendar days after such effective date (or, if later, the date that is 20 calendar days after holders receive notice of such fundamental change) and (b) December 15, 2025. Holders who convert shares of the Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock during that period will also receive a make-whole dividend amount comprised of a fundamental change dividend make-whole amount, and to the extent there is any, the accumulated dividend amount. Because each depositary share represents a 1/20th fractional interest in a share of the Series B Preferred Stock, a holder of depositary shares may convert its depositary shares upon a fundamental change only in lots of 20 depositary shares.
Ranking: The Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock, with respect to anticipated dividends and distributions upon Chart’s liquidation or dissolution, or winding-up of Chart’s affairs, ranks or will rank:
senior to our common stock and each other class or series of capital stock issued after the initial issue date of the Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock, the terms of which do not expressly provide that such capital stock ranks either senior to the Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock or on a parity with Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock;
equal with any class or series of capital stock issued after the initial issue date the terms of which expressly provide that such capital stock will rank equal with the Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock;
junior to the Series A Preferred Stock, if issued, and each other class or series of capital stock issued after the initial issue date that is expressly made senior to the Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock;
junior to our existing and future indebtedness; and
structurally subordinated to any existing and future indebtedness of our subsidiaries as well as the capital stock of our subsidiaries held by third parties.
Voting Rights: Holders of Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock generally will not have voting rights. Whenever dividends on shares of Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock have not been declared and paid for six or more dividend periods (including, for the avoidance of doubt, the dividend period beginning on, and including, the initial issue date and ending on, but excluding, March 15, 2023), whether or not for consecutive dividend periods, the holders of such shares of Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock, voting together as a single class with holders of all other series of voting preferred stock of equal rank, then outstanding, will be entitled at our next annual or special meeting of stockholders to vote for the election of a total of two additional members of our board of directors, subject to certain limitations. This right will terminate if and when all accumulated and unpaid dividends have been paid in full, or declared and a sum sufficient for such payment shall have been set aside. Upon such termination, the term of office of each preferred stock director so elected will terminate at such time and the Chinese yuan. The Company’snumber of directors on our board of directors will automatically decrease by two, subject to the revesting of such rights in the event of each subsequent nonpayment.
Embedded Derivatives: There are no material embedded derivatives that meet the criteria for bifurcation and separate accounting pursuant to ASC 815-15, Embedded Derivatives.
Common Stock
On January 10, 2023, we completed a public offering (the “Partial Greenshoe”), through which Chart issued and sold 0.11 shares of common stock, $0.01 par value per share. We received gross proceeds of $12.1 from the issuance of shares less $0.4 of equity issuance costs. Proceeds from both the 2022 Equity Offering and Partial Greenshoe were used to fund the Howden Acquisition.

NOTE 11 — Derivative Financial Instruments
Derivatives and Hedging
We utilize a combination of cross-currency swaps and foreign exchange collars (together the “Foreign Exchange Collar Contracts”) as a net investment hedge of a portion of our investments in certain international subsidiaries that use the euro as their functional currency in order to reduce the volatility caused by changes in exchange rates. As a result of our acquisition of Howden, we are also a party to foreign currency contracts not designated as hedging instruments (the “Foreign Currency Contracts”) which are used to mitigate the risk associated with cash management activities and customer forward contracts do not qualify as hedges as defined by accounting guidance.sale agreements denominated in currencies other than the applicable local currency, and to match costs and expected revenues where production facilities have a different currency than the selling currency.
Our Foreign currency forward contractsCurrency Contracts are measured at fair value with changes in fair value recorded within foreign currency (gain) loss. We classify cash flows related to our Foreign Currency Contracts as operating activities within our condensed consolidated statements of cash flows. The notional value of our Foreign Currency Contracts was $330.3 as of September 30, 2023. Our derivative contracts are entered into with major financial institutions in order to reduce credit risk and recordedrisk of nonperformance by third parties. We believe the credit risks with respect to the counterparties, and the foreign currency risks that would not be hedged if the counterparties fail to fulfill their obligations under the contract, are not material in view of our understanding of the financial strength of the counterparties. Our derivative contracts are not exchange traded instruments and their fair value is determined using the cash flows of the contracts, discount rates to account for the passage of time, implied volatility, current foreign exchange market data and credit risk, which are all based on inputs readily available in public markets and categorized as Level 2 fair value hierarchy measurements.

NOTE 8 — Fair Value Measurements
The Company measures its financial assets and liabilities at fair value on a recurring basis using a three-tier fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in the valuation methodologies. The three levels of inputs used to measure fair value are as follows:
Level 1 — Valuations based on quoted prices for identical assets and liabilities in active markets.
Level 2 — Valuations based on observable inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1, such as quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets and liabilities in markets that are not active, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data.
Level 3 — Valuations based on unobservable inputs reflect the Company’s assumptions, consistent with reasonably available assumptions made by other market participants. These valuations require significant judgment.
Financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis and presented in the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets are as follows:

based on net income, which approximates income available to common shareholders for each period. Earnings per share is calculated using the two-class method, which is an earnings allocation formula that determines the earnings per share for common stock and any participating securities according to dividends declared (whether paid or unpaid) and participation rights in undistributed earnings. The Series B Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock and the 2024 Convertible Notes are participating securities. Undistributed earnings are not allocated to the participating securities because the participation features are discretionary. Net losses are not allocated to the Series B Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock, as it does not have a contractual obligation to share in the losses of Chart. Basic net income per share is computed by dividing net income available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted net income per common share is computed by dividing net income available to common shareholders by the sum of the weighted average number of common shares outstanding and any dilutive non-participating securities for the period.

(2)The convertible note hedge offsets any dilution upon actual conversion of the 2024 Notes up to a common stock price of $71.775 per share. For further information, refer to Note 9, “Debt and Credit Arrangements.”

The2022, respectively, represents taxes on both U.S and foreign earnings at a combined effective income tax rate of 47.5%840.0% and 48.6%5.8%, respectively.
The effective income tax rates of 1.0% and 840.0% for the three and nine months ended September 30, 20172023 differed from the U.S. federal statutory rate of 35%21% primarily due to losses incurred by certain of the Company’s Chinese operations for which no benefit was recorded, partially offset by foreign exchange losses realized upon the receipt of previously taxed income, and the effect of income earned by our certain foreign entities being taxed at higher rates than the U.S. federal statutory rate, the U.S. taxation of international operations with the Company’s international entities operating in lower taxed jurisdictions. The third quarter 2017 effective income tax rate was also impacted byexpanded global footprint and transaction costs incurredfrom the Howden Acquisition, offset by research and development credits and excess tax benefits associated with the acquisition of Hudson, a portion of which were non-deductible for U.S. federal income tax purposes. share-based compensation.
The effective income tax raterates of 11.4%(4.0)% and 31.0%5.8% for the three and nine months ended September 30, 20162022 differed from the U.S. federal statutory rate of 35%21% primarily due to an insurance settlement for breaches of representations and warranties that resulted in an adjustment toincome earned by our purchase price of Airsep shares for tax purposes andcertain foreign entities being taxed at higher rates than the U.S. federal statutory rates more than offset by losses incurred bythe release of a valuation allowance on certain foreign entities, excess tax benefits associated with share-based compensation and global R&D tax credits. The release of the Company’s Chinese operations for which no benefit was recorded.valuation allowance is due to continued improvement of on-going results in certain foreign jurisdictions over the prior three years and the current year resulting in the recognition of deferred tax assets (and the related deferred tax benefit) that were generated in prior years and year to date that had not been previously recognized.

Item 2.Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
Item 2.Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
The following discussion of our results of operations and financial condition should be read in conjunction with our condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes appearing elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. This discussion contains forward-looking statements. Actual results may differ materially from those discussed below. See “Forward-Looking Statements” at the end of this discussion and Item 1A. “Risk Factors” for a discussion of the uncertainties, risks and assumptions associated with this discussion.
Overview
Chart Industries, Inc.We are a leading independent global leader in the design, engineering, and its consolidated subsidiaries (the “Company,” “Chart,” “we,” “us,” or “our”)manufacturing of process technologies and equipment for gas and liquid molecule handling for the Nexus of Clean™ – clean power, clean water, clean food, and clean industrials, regardless of molecule. Our unique product and solution portfolio across stationary and rotating equipment is used in every phase of the liquid gas supply chain, including engineering, service and repair from installation to preventive maintenance and digital monitoring. Chart is a leading diversified global manufacturerprovider of highly engineered equipment for the industrial gas, energy, and biomedical industries. Ourtechnology, equipment and engineered systemsservices related to liquefied natural gas, hydrogen, biogas and CO2 Capture among other applications. We are primarily usedcommitted to excellence in environmental, social and corporate governance (ESG) issues both for low-temperatureour company as well as our customers. With 64 global manufacturing locations and cryogenic applications utilizingover 50 service centers from the United States to Asia, Australia, India, Europe and South America, we maintain accountability and transparency to our expertiseteam members, suppliers, customers and communities.
Macroeconomic Impacts
The current conflict between Russia and Ukraine and the related sanctions imposed by countries against Russia, along with the heightened tensions between the U.S. and China and recent unrest in cryogenic systemsthe Middle East continue to create uncertainty in the global economy. We are unable to predict the impact these actions will have on the global economy or on our business, financial condition and equipment which operate at low temperatures sometimes approaching absolute zero (0 Kelvin; -273° Centigrade; -459° Fahrenheit).
Third Quarter and Year-to-date 2017 Highlights
Our consolidatedresults of operations. These events did not have a material adverse effect on our reported results for the third quarter 2017 were highlighted by sales of $240.5 million, and operating income2023, however we will continue to actively monitor in terms of $10.4 million, inclusivetheir potential impact on our results of the in quarter acquisitions.  Gross profit foroperations beyond the third quarter of 2017 was $70.4 million, or 29.3%2023.
Environmental, Social, Governance
Chart is proud to be at the forefront of sales,the clean energy transition as a leading provider of technology, equipment and services related to liquefied natural gas (LNG), hydrogen, biogas, carbon capture and water treatment, among other applications. We also have a unique offering for the Nexus of Clean™ – clean power, clean water, clean food and clean industrials. This leadership position is possible not only because we have the broadest offering of clean innovative solutions for the various end markets we serve, but also because we are committed to global responsibility. Reporting our ESG performance is one of the ways we demonstrate accountability and transparency to our team members, suppliers, customers, shareholders and communities. Below are some highlights of our ESG efforts, and further information can be found in our fourth Annual Sustainability report with scorecard which was unfavorably impacted by $0.3 millionreleased in April 2023.
Safety: total recordable incident rate (TRIR) of restructuring costs.  Energy & Chemicals (“E&C”) gross margin improved sequentially0.52 as of September 30, 2023 an improvement from 13.3% in the second quarter0.57 as at June 30, 2023
Lost time incident rate (LTIR) of 2017 to 18.6% in the third quarter of 2017, which includes 260 basis points from the inclusion of the results of RCHPH Holdings, Inc. (“Hudson”).  The strength in gross margin was driven in part by restructuring and additional LNG (“Liquefied Natural Gas”) FEED projects. Distribution & Storage (“D&S”) third quarter gross margin as a percent of sales of 29.1% sequentially increased 340 basis points over the second quarter of 2017.  Continued improvement in D&S cost structure from reductions in force taken this year combined with D&S European operational improvements contributed to the sequential increase. BioMedical third quarter gross margin as a percent of sales of 38.7% increased sequentially by 150 basis points, from 37.2% in the second quarter of 2017.  This reflects the reduced cost structure from the completion of the Buffalo, New York respiratory facility consolidation. 
Market and order activity continues to increase year to date, with $258.0 million in orders received in the quarter, inclusive of $3.8 million of orders from Hudson in the ten day Chart ownership period.  This0.20 is the fourth consecutive quarterlowest in our history
70% of sequential order growthour sites are accident free for Chart.  E&C orders in both the third and second quartersmore than one year
Our Changzhou site has gone 3,257,020 hours accident free (benchmark is one million hours for heavy engineering/industrial)
Two of 2017 were above $60 million, and BioMedical orders were up 7.3% sequentially over the second quarter of 2017 driven by continued demand for oxygen concentrators.  Backlog excluding third quarter acquisitions increased to $390.6 million from $367.2 millionour Chart China personnel have been appointed as safety experts at the end of the second quarter of 2017.  Changzhou city level
Our teams worked together to improve our 2023 Ecovadis Sustainability ratings from bronze to silver for certain EU sites.
S&P Global Platts Energy Awards Corporate Impact - Comprehensive Portfolio finalist 2023
We anticipate this sequential order trend will continue to increasemeasure progress through year end, with specific project orders expected in the E&C businessSustainability Accounting Standards Board (SASB) and in D&S Asia related to LNG vehicle tanks. 
On September 20, 2017, we closedTask Force on the acquisition of Hudson. The estimated purchase price is $419.4 million and Hudson’s results of operations are included in our E&C segment since that date.   On August 31, 2017 we closed the acquisition of VCT Vogel (“VCT”).  The estimated purchase price is $4.1 million, and VCT’s results are included in our D&S segment since that date. 
Outlook
Our 2017 full year outlook reflects continued tempered energy prices related to core LNG E&C business, year-to-date order growth in our segments and the impact of current year acquisitions (Hetsco, Inc., Hudson, and VCT).  We continue to anticipate that the forecasted global supply/demand LNG gas balance will be reached in 2022-2023, thereby driving LNG export facility orders in late 2018 / early 2019. A majority of upcoming projects for U.S. LNG export have transitioned from utilizing traditional single train base load plants to multi-train mid-scale projects, with a modular approach to achieve baseload capacities. This is important to us because multi-train mid-scale may use Chart’s patented IPSMR technologyClimate-Related Financial Disclosures (TCFD) indices, as well as contributing to the Global Reporting Initiative (GRI) and United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
We utilize Riskmethods analytics to proactively monitor our brazed aluminum heat exchanger and cold boxes as the main liquefaction heat exchanger technology.
We continue to investsupply chain for proper governance in our automation, process improvement,supplier network including their climate targets and productivity activitiesother ESG activities.
We have a Global ESG Committee, Global Safety Council, and Global Diversity & Inclusion Committee, all comprised of team member volunteers and engagement from our global locations. Howden has similar committees across their global organization.
53

Our Global ESG Committee has five sub-committees focused on energy management, zero waste, electrification, renewable energy and water management.
We have recently entered into a sustainability-linked banking agreement with covenants tied to our greenhouse gas (“GHG”) emission reductions’ actual performance.
In 2021, we set a target to reduce our greenhouse gas intensity 30% across company owned operations by 2030 compared to our 2020 baseline. In 2021, we made progress towards achieving our target by reducing GHG Intensity by almost 14% year-over-year. In 2022, we reached and exceeded this goal eight years before 2030 (our goal horizon).

D&S saw improvement in all regions during the three months ended September 30, 2017 as2023. The increase compared to the same quarter in 2016, with the largest increase in China,2022 was primarily driven by stronger LNG-related product sales. Sequentially overHowden and strong big and small-scale LNG sales in our Heat Transfer Systems segment, and the slight decline from the second quarter 2023 was primarily the result of 2017,customer timing with a few orders being pushed to the overall salesfourth quarter.

Table of an insurance recovery received by the BioMedical segment for breaches of representations and warranties related to warranty costs for certain product lines acquired from AirSep Corporation (“AirSep”) in 2012. The increase is primarily due to gross profit added from the Hetsco and Hudson acquisitions in our E&C segment. Gross profit further increased as a result of higher volume at better margins in the D&S segment. Excluding the impact of the insurance recovery, BioMedical’s gross profit was up compared to the prior year on slightly higher sales. Sequentially over the second quarter of 2017, the increase in gross profit of $7.2 million, or 11.4%, was mainly driven by the E&C segment’s incremental margin from the Hudson acquisition and the D&S segment, where favorable product mix drove margins higher.Contents

Income Tax Expense
Income tax expense of $1.9$4.8 million and $1.8$0.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 20172023 and 2016,2022, respectively. The increase of $4.1 million was primarily due to the amendment of our senior secured revolving credit facility due 2026, the issuance of senior secured notes due 2030 and senior unsecured notes due 2031 during the fourth quarter of 2022 as well as the issuance of incremental term loans on March 17, 2023 and June 30, 2023, all of which increased deferred debt issuance costs.
Unrealized Loss On Investments In Equity Securities
During the third quarter of 2023, we recognized an unrealized loss on investments in equity securities of $5.2 million, which was driven by an unrealized loss of $4.0 million on the mark-to-market adjustment of our investment in McPhy and a $1.2 million unrealized loss on the mark-to-market adjustment of our investment in Stabilis. During third quarter of 2022, we recognized an unrealized gain of $1.3 million, which was driven by a $5.4 million unrealized gain on the mark-to-market adjustment of our investment in Stabilis, offset by a $4.1 million unrealized loss on the mark-to-market adjustment of our investment in McPhy.
Foreign Currency (Gain) Loss
For the three months ended September 30, 2023, foreign currency gain was $2.9 million, and for the three months ended September 30, 2022 foreign currency gain was $2.5 million. The variance between periods was primarily driven by fluctuations in the U.S. dollar as compared to the euro, Chinese yuan, and South African rand. Foreign currency (gain) loss relates to transaction gains and losses arising from fluctuations in currency exchange rates on transactions denominated in currencies other than the functional currency.
Income Tax Expense
Income tax (benefit) of $0.1 million and $(1.6) million for the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, represents taxes on both U.S. and foreign earnings at a combined effective income tax rate of 47.5%1.0% and 11.4%(4.0)%, respectively. The effective income tax rate of 47.5% for the third quarter of 2017 was higher than the U.S. federal statutory rate of 35% primarily due to losses incurred by certain of our Chinese operations for which no tax benefit was recorded, partially offset by the effect of income earned by certain of our international entities operating in lower taxed jurisdictions. The third quarter 2017 effective income tax rate was also impacted by transaction costs incurred with the acquisition of Hudson, a portion of which were non-deductible for U.S. federal income tax purposes. The effective income tax rate of 11.4%1.0% for the three months ended September 30, 20162023 differed from the U.S. federal statutory rate of 35%21% primarily due to one-time impacts from acquisitions and income earned by our certain foreign entities being taxed at higher rates than the insurance settlement for breaches of representations and warranties that resulted in an adjustment to our purchase price of Airsep shares for tax purposes and wasU.S. federal statutory rate, offset by losses incurredresearch and development credits and excess tax benefits associated with share-based compensation.
The effective income tax rate of (4.0)% for the three months ended September 30, 2022 differed from the U.S. federal statutory rate of 21% primarily due to income earned by our certain foreign entities being taxed at higher rates than the U.S. federal statutory rates, more than offset by the release of our Chinese operations for which no benefit was recorded.a valuation allowance on certain foreign entities, excess tax benefits associated with share-based compensation and global R&D tax credits. The release of the valuation allowance is due to continued improvement of on-going results in certain foreign jurisdictions over the prior three years and the current year resulting in the recognition of deferred tax assets (and the related deferred tax benefit) that were generated in prior years and year to date that had not been previously recognized.
Net Income Attributable to Chart Industries, Inc. from Continuing Operations
As a result of the foregoing, net income attributable to the CompanyChart Industries, Inc. from continuing operations for the three months ended September 30, 20172023 and 20162022 was $1.5$9.4 million and $15.0$41.2 million, respectively.

Results of Operations for the Nine Months Ended September 30, 20172023 and 20162022
Sales for the first nine months of 2023 compared to the same period in 2022 increased by $1,166.5 million, from $1,171.0 million to $2,337.5 million. Similar to the comments in the results of operations for the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022 section above, this increase is driven by the sales contribution from the Howden acquisition and strong big and small-scale LNG volumes within our Heat Transfer Segment.

Similar to the comments in the results of operations for the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022 section above, the increase in gross profit margin for the first nine months of 2023 compared to the same period in 2022 was primarily driven by the Howden acquisition, as noted above.

Consolidated SG&A expenses increased by $197.1 million or 123.7% during the first nine months of 2023 compared to the same period in 2022 primarily driven by the inclusion of Howden SG&A expenses in the current period in addition to expenses incurred in connection with the acquisition.

The increase in all segmentsinterest expense, net, is primarily due to higher borrowings outstanding, specifically our senior secured notes due 2030 and senior unsecured notes due 2031, both issued on December 22, 2022 with interest payments due semi-annually, as well as borrowings related to our term loan, drawn on March 17, 2023 for the Howden Acquisition and an additional incremental term loan drawn on June 30, 2023, compared to borrowings outstanding during the same period in 2022. The increase in interest expense, net was also driven by higher average interest rates during the nine months ended September 30, 2023 as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2016,2022. The increase in interest expense, net was partially offset by $38.1interest income of $21.4 million or 5.9%,earned primarily driven by stronger sales in D&S as a resultfrom deposit of increased sales in bulkproceeds from the senior secured notes due 2030, senior unsecured notes due 2031, common stock and packaged gas industrial applications, especially inpreferred stock offerings into interest bearing accounts until the U.Sconsummation of the Howden Acquisition, and China.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Debt Instruments and Related Covenants
Convertible Notes: The outstanding aggregate principal amount of the Company’s Convertible Notes is $250.0 million. The Convertible Notes bear interest at a fixed rate of 2.0% per year, payable semiannuallyOur debt instruments and related covenants are described in arrears on February 1 and August 1 of each year, and will mature on August 1, 2018. The effective interest rate at issuance, under generally accepted accounting principles, was 7.9%. Upon conversion, holders of the Convertible Notes will receive cash up to the principal amount of the Convertible Notes. It is the Company’s intention to settle any excess conversion value in shares of the Company’s common stock. However, the Company may elect to settle, at its discretion, any such excess value in cash, shares of the Company’s common stock, or a combination of cash and shares. The initial conversion price of $69.03 per share represents a conversion premium of 30% over the last reported sale price of the Company’s common stock on July 28, 2011, the date of the Convertible Notes offering, which was $53.10 per share. The Convertible Notes are classified as current liabilities at September 30, 2017 as their maturity is within 12 months of the balance sheet date. At the end of the third quarter of 2017, events for early conversion were not met; and thus, the Convertible Notes were not convertible as of, and for the fiscal quarter beginning October 1, 2017. There have been no conversions as of the date of this filing. In the event that holders of Convertible Notes elect to convert, the Company expects to fund any cash settlement of any such conversion from cash balances or borrowings under its senior secured revolving credit facility.
Senior Secured Revolving Credit Facility: The Company has a five-year $450.0 million senior secured revolving credit facility (the “SSRCF”) which matures on October 29, 2019. The SSRCF includes a $25.0 million sub-limit for the issuance of swingline loans and a $100.0 million sub-limit to be used for letters of credit. There is a foreign currency limit of $100.0 million under the SSRCF which can be used for foreign currency denominated letters of credit and borrowings in a foreign currency, in each case in currencies agreed upon with the lenders. In addition, the facility permits borrowings up to $100.0 million made by the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiaries, Chart Industries Luxembourg S.à r.l. (“Chart Luxembourg”), and Chart Asia Investment Company Limited. The SSRCF also includes an expansion option permitting the Company to add up to an aggregate $200.0 million in term loans or revolving credit commitments from its lenders. Loans under the SSRCF bear interest at LIBOR or the Adjusted Base Rate as defined in the DebtNote 9, “Debt and Credit Arrangements noteArrangements” to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this report, plus a margin that varies with the Company’s leverage ratio. Significant financial covenants for the SSRCF include a minimum liquidity requirement equal to the principal amount of the Convertible Notes outstanding six months prior to the maturity date of the Convertible Notes and when holders of the Convertible Notes have the option to require the Company to repurchase the Convertible Notes, a leverage ratio and an interest ratio. On September 19, 2017, the Company entered into an amendment (“Amendment No. 2”) to its SSRCF to exclude the acquisition of Hudson from the pro forma leverage ratio requirement of the SSRCF. Concurrently with Amendment No. 2, the Company has exercised its right under the SSRCF to elect an increase in the maximum permissible leverage ratio thereunder to 3.75 for the four fiscal-quarter period ending September 30, 2018. As of September 30, 2017, there were $300.0 million borrowings outstanding under the SSRCF. The Company borrowed against this facility to fund the Hudson acquisition. The Company had $44.8 million in letters of credit and bank guarantees supported by the SSRCF, which had availability of $105.2 million, at September 30, 2017. The Company was in compliance with all covenants, including its financial covenants at September 30, 2017. The Company is currently negotiating a refinancing of the SSRCF, which is expected to close in November 2017. We anticipate that the refinanced SSRCF will extend the current SSRCF maturity to 2022 and otherwise be similar in size, structure and collateral packages to the current SSRCF, along with other changes favorable to the Company and its subsidiaries.

Cash Requirements
We do not currently anticipate any unusual cash requirements for working capital needs for the year ending December 31, 2017.2023. Management anticipates we will be able to satisfy cash requirements for our ongoing business for the foreseeable future with cash generated by operations, existing cash balances and available borrowings under our credit facilities. We may repurchase a portion of our Convertible Notes on the open market from time to time to the extent permitted by our debt covenants with available cash. To the extent that we repurchase Convertible Notes, we would expect to enter into an agreement with each of the Option Counterparties to our convertible note hedge, warrants, and capped call agreements providing for the partial unwind of such agreements in a notional amount corresponding to the aggregate principal amount of Convertible Notes that we repurchase. We expect to satisfy the minimum liquidity requirement under our SSRCF during the six months prior to the August 1, 2018 maturity of the Convertible Notes as well as the ultimate payment of the Convertible Notes with some combination of cash and liquid investments, availability under the SSRCF or additional financing sources. We expect capital expenditures for the remaining three months of 2017 to be $12.0 million to $22.0 million, which will be deployed primarily for an expansion of the brazed aluminum heat exchanger facility in La Crosse, Wisconsin, as well as cost saving improvement projects and routine maintenance across all businesses. For the remaining three months of 2017, we contemplate the use of approximately $8.0 million to $9.0 million of cash to pay U.S. and foreign income taxes.
Orders and Backlog
We consider orders to be those for which we have received a firm signed purchase order or other written contractual commitmentcommitments from the customer. Backlog is comprised of the portion of firm signed purchase orders or other written contractual commitments received from customers for which work has not been performed, or is partially completed, that we have not recognized as revenue upon shipment or under the percentage of completion method. Backlog can be significantly affected by the timing of orders for large projects, particularly in the E&C segment, and is not necessarily indicative of future backlog levels or the rate at which backlog will be recognized as sales. Orders included in our backlog may include customary cancellation provisions under which the customer could cancel part or all of the order, potentially subject to the payment of certain costs and/or fees. Backlog may be negatively impacted by ability or likelihood of customers to fulfill their obligations.excludes unexercised contract options and potential orders. Our backlog as of September 30, 20172023 was $480.7$4,140.7 million, compared to $384.4$2,254.1 million as of September 30, 20162022 and $367.2$3,964.9 million as of June 30, 2017.

Item 3.Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
In the normal course of business, the Company’sour operations are exposed to fluctuations in interest rates and foreign currency values that can affect the cost of operating and financing. Accordingly, the Company addresseswe address a portion of these risks through a program of risk management.
Interest Rate Risk: The Company’sOur primary interest rate risk exposure results from the SSRCF’s various floating rate pricing mechanisms.mechanisms contained in our senior secured revolving credit facility due October 2026 and from our term loan. If interest rates were to increase 200100 basis points (2(1 percent) from the weighted-average interest rate for our senior secured revolving credit facility due 2026 of 4.00%7.0% at September 30, 2017,2023, and assuming no changes in the $300.0$203.8 million of borrowings outstanding under the SSRCFsenior secured revolving credit facility due October 2026 at September 30, 2017,2023, our additional annual expense would be approximately $6.0$2.0 million on a pre-tax basis. If interest rates were to increase 100 basis points (1 percent) from the interest

rate for our term loan of 9.2% at September 30, 2023, and assuming no changes in the $1,776.5 million of borrowings outstanding under the term loan at September 30, 2023, our additional annual expense would be approximately $17.8 million on a pre-tax basis.
Foreign Currency Exchange Rate Risk:The Company operates We operate in the United States Asia, Australia, Europe, Mexico and South America, creatingother foreign countries, which creates exposure to foreign currency exchange fluctuations in the normal course of business, which can impact our financial position, results of operations, cash flow, and competitive position. The financial statements of foreign subsidiaries are translated into their U.S. dollar equivalents at end-of-period exchange rates for assets and liabilities, while income and expenses are translated at average monthly exchange rates. Translation gains and losses are components of other comprehensive (loss) income as reported in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income.income (loss). Translation exposure is primarily with the euro, the Czech koruna, the Chinese yuan, the South African Rand, the British Pound and the Japanese yen.Indian rupee. During the third quarter of 2017,2023, the euro and Chinese yuanU.S. dollar strengthened in relation to the U.S. dollarCzech koruna by 5%, British Pound by 3% and 2%, respectively, while the Japanese yen remained relatively unchanged versuseuro by 3%. There was no notable movement between the U.S. dollar.dollar and the Indian rupee, Chinese yuan or South African Rand. At September 30, 2017,2023, a hypothetical further 10% weakeningstrengthening of the U.S. dollar would not materially affect the Company’sour financial statements.
EUR Revolver Borrowings: Additionally, assuming no changes in the euro $88.5 million in EUR Revolver Borrowings outstanding under the senior secured revolving credit facility due October 2026 and an additional 100 basis points (1 percent) strengthening in the U.S dollar in relation to the euro as of the beginning of 2023, during the three months ended September 30, 2023, our additional unrealized foreign currency gain would be approximately $0.9 million on a pre-tax basis.
Transaction Gains and Losses:Chart’s primary transaction exchange rate exposures are with the euro, the Japanese yen,Chinese yuan, the Czech koruna, the Indian rupee, the Australian dollar, the British pound, the Canadian dollar, the Japanese yen and the Chinese yuan.South African rand. Transaction gains and losses arising from fluctuations in currency exchange rates on transactions denominated in currencies other than the functional currency are recognized in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss) as a component of foreign currency loss. The Company entersgain.
Derivative Instruments: We enter into foreign exchange forwardcurrency contracts not designated as hedging instruments to hedgemitigate foreign currency risk for anticipated and firmly committed foreign currency transactions. Chart doesAt September 30, 2023, a hypothetical 10% weakening of the U.S. dollar would not materially affect these outstanding foreign currency contracts. We enter into a combination of cross-currency swaps and foreign exchange collars as a net investment hedge of our investments in certain international subsidiaries that use the euro as their functional currency in order to reduce the volatility caused by changes in exchange rates. As disclosed in Note 9, “Debt and Credit Arrangements,” we purchased an out-of-the-money protective call while writing a put option with a strike price at which the premium received is equal to the premium of the protective call purchased, which involved no initial capital outlay. The call was structured with a strike price higher than our cost basis in such investments, thereby limiting any foreign exchange losses to approximately $11.4 million on a pre-tax basis. We do not use derivative financial instruments for speculative or trading purposes. The terms of the contracts are generally one year or less. At September 30, 2017, a hypothetical 10% weakening of the U.S. dollar would not materially affect the Company’s outstanding foreign exchange forward contracts.to three years.
Market Price Sensitive Instruments
In connection with the issuancepricing of the 1.00% Convertible Senior Subordinated Notes the Companydue November 2024 (the “2024 Notes”), we entered into privately-negotiated convertible note hedge and capped call transactions (the “Note Hedge Transactions”) with certain parties, including affiliates of certainthe initial purchasers of the underwriters2024 Notes (the “Option Counterparties”). The convertible note hedge and capped call transactions relate to, collectively, 3.6 million shares, which represents the number of shares of the Company’s common stock underlying the Convertible Notes, subject to anti-dilution adjustments substantially similar to those applicable to the Convertible Notes. These convertible note hedge and capped call transactionsNote Hedge Transactions are expected to reduce the potential dilution with respect to the Company’s common stock upon any future conversion of the Convertible Notes and/or reduce the Company’s exposure to potential cash or stock payments that may be required upon conversion of the Convertible Notes, except, in the case of the capped call transactions, to the extent that the market price per share of the Company’s common stock exceeds the cap price of the capped call transactions.2024 Notes.
The CompanyWe also entered into separate, privately-negotiated warrant transactions with the Option Counterparties initially relating to the number ofacquire up to 4.41 million shares of the Company’sour common stock underlying the convertible note hedge transactions, subject to customary anti-dilution adjustments.stock. The warrant transactions will have a dilutive effect with respect to the Company’sour common stock to the extent that the price per share of the Company’sour common stock exceeds the strike price of the warrants unless the Company elects,we elect, subject to certain conditions, to settle the warrants in cash. The cap price of the capped call transactions and the strike price of the warrant transactions related to the 2024 Notes was initially $84.96$71.775 per share.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
There were no changes in the Company’sour internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the Company’sour most recent fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’sour internal control over financial reporting except that on September 20, 2017 the Company acquired RCHPH Holdings, Inc. (“Hudson”). As a result, the Company is currently integrating Hudson’s operations into its overall system of internal control over financial reporting. Under the guidelines established by the Securities and Exchange Commission, companies are permitted to exclude acquisitions from their assessment of internal control over financial reporting during the first year of acquisition. Accordingly, we expect to exclude Hudson from the assessment of internal control over financial reporting for 2017.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1A.Risk Factors
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
We are occasionally subject to various other legal claims related to performance under contracts, product liability, taxes, employment matters, environmental matters, intellectual property, and other matters incidental to the normal course of our business. Based on our historical experience in litigating these claims, as well as our current assessment of the underlying merits of the claims and applicable insurance, if any, management believes that the final resolution of these matters will not have a material adverse effect on our financial position, liquidity, cash flows, or results of operations. Future developments may, however, result in resolution of these legal claims in a way that could have a material adverse effect.
