Exhibit 99.1

Chart Industries Executes Definitive Agreement for the sale of its Roots^™ business to Ingersoll Rand

Atlanta, Georgia (USA), June 12, 2023 – Chart Industries, Inc. (NYSE: GTLS) (“Chart”) announced that it has signed a definitive agreement to sell its Roots^™ business (“Roots”) to Ingersoll Rand Inc. (NYSE: IR) (“Ingersoll Rand”) for an all-cash purchase price of $300 million, representing an attractive low-teens adjusted EBITDA multiple. The transaction, which is subject to customary closing conditions, is expected to close in the third quarter 2023.

Roots is a leading provider of low-pressure compression and vacuum technologies. As part of the transaction, Ingersoll Rand will assume ownership of the Connersville, Indiana (USA) manufacturing facility, which is dedicated to Roots products, as well as retain approximately 300 team members.

“We are excited to have executed a definitive agreement in the second quarter 2023 to sell Roots, which is another key step in accelerating our deleveraging plan while simultaneously allowing us to focus on our core strategic solution offering and integration efforts,” stated Jill Evanko, Chart’s CEO and President. “We also are thrilled that the business will be owned by Ingersoll Rand, a proven strategic partner and a company that will care for the Roots’ team members.”

“We have long admired Roots and are thrilled to add this iconic brand to our portfolio. This complementary acquisition expands our low-pressure compression and vacuum product offerings and is a great example of our partnership with Chart, where the acquisition was a win-win for both companies,” said Vicente Reynal, chairman and chief executive officer of Ingersoll Rand.

Chart is also reiterating its full year 2023 anticipated outlook for revenue, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted earnings per share, adjusted free cash flow and operational cash flow available for debt paydown, as well as our 2024 adjusted EBITDA outlook for $1.3 billion. We also reiterate our year-one annualized cost and commercial synergy targets of $175 million and $150 million as the original outlook did not assume any Roots^™ associated synergies. The Roots business will be treated for accounting purposes as assets held for sale effective as of March 17, 2023 through the close of the transaction.

Chart’s banking covenant net leverage ratio as of March 31, 2023 was 4.08X. Assuming the approximately $300 million of cash from this divestiture had been available for debt paydown, the pro forma March 31, 2023 net leverage ratio would have been 3.88X.
