M&A and Financial Operations Expert

Acquisition approval and strong orders drive positive strategic and cash flow outlook despite one-time deal costs.

Chart reported record orders and improved adjusted margins while shareholders approved the acquisition by Baker Hughes, under which holders will receive $210 per share at close expected mid-2026. The quarter shows robust commercial momentum with orders up 43.9%, adjusted operating margin of 22.9, and healthy free cash flow of $94.7 million after capital spending.

Reported results include a $266 million expense tied to the terminated Flowserve agreement, with $258 million paid by Baker Hughes and a corresponding liability that may be repaid only in limited circumstances; management states repayment is highly unlikely. Key near-term items to watch are regulatory approvals and customary closing conditions ahead of the mid-2026 close, conversion mechanics for the Series B preferred around December 15, 2025, and whether fourth quarter orders include any large bookings.

HOUSTON, Oct. 29, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Chart Industries, Inc. (NYSE: GTLS) today reported results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2025. On July 28, 2025 Baker Hughes (NASDAQ: BKR) and Chart entered into a definitive agreement for Baker Hughes to acquire all outstanding shares of Chart’s common stock for $210 per share in cash. In the third quarter, we recorded an expense of $266 million for the merger termination fee to Flowserve (NYSE: FLS), $258 million of which was paid by Baker Hughes, and a liability of $258 million as we could be required to repay Baker Hughes in certain limited circumstances. Following shareholder approval of the transaction on October 6, 2025, repayment can only be required if Chart does not maintain certain standard representations and warranties. Although management believes it is highly unlikely that the termination fee would be required to be repaid, U.S. GAAP requires the Company to record the liability and not record the gain on extinguishment of the liability until the transaction closes, which is expected to be in mid-2026. 

Third quarter 2025 highlights compared to third quarter 2024:

• Record orders of $1.68 billion, an increase of 43.9%
• Sales of $1.10 billion, an increase of 3.6%
• Record gross profit as a percent of sales of 34.1%, flat
• Reported operating (loss) income of ($88.5) million was $251.5 million when adjusted for deal-related costs associated with the now terminated proposed merger with Flowserve and deal costs related to the pending acquisition by Baker Hughes, and step-up amortization related to the Howden acquisition, resulting in 22.9% adjusted operating income margin
• EBITDA of ($29.7) million was $277.1 million (25.2% of sales) when adjusted for the above-described deal-related and restructuring costs
• Reported diluted earnings per share (“EPS”) of ($3.23) was $2.78 when adjusted, an increase of 27.5%
• Reported net cash from operating activities of $118.0 million less capital expenditures of $23.3 million resulted in $94.7 million of free cash flow (“FCF”). Cash flow for the quarter was negatively impacted by deal-related costs associated with the now terminated proposed merger with Flowserve and proposed acquisition by Baker Hughes
  

“Our commercial momentum continues, with a third consecutive quarter of sequential orders growth driven by continued strength in our end markets, especially in LNG and data centers as customers are increasingly utilizing our full solutions and process technologies,” stated Jill Evanko, Chart Industries’ CEO and President.  “Our team’s continuous improvement efforts contributed to our record adjusted operating income margin of 22.9% and gross margin as a percent of sales of 34.1%. Thank you to our team members who delivered this operating performance safely with a 12-month total recordable incident rate (TRIR) of 0.37, our lowest in history.”

Summary of third quarter 2025.

Third quarter 2025 orders of $1.68 billion grew 43.9%, when compared to the third quarter 2024 driven by growth in Heat Transfer Systems (“HTS”) and Specialty Products (“SPC”). In the third quarter 2025 we received an order from Bechtel Energy Inc. to supply air-cooled heat exchangers, brazed aluminum heat exchangers, and cold boxes for Sempra Infrastructure’s Port Arthur LNG Phase 2 development project. We also received an order for a heat rejection system to be used by one of the largest data centers in the United States. In our aftermarket, service and repair business, we signed a multi-year agreement to service a utility customer’s rotary blowers in South Africa, added 20 new service agreements (our highest quarterly performance year-to-date 2025), and increased digital Uptime™ assets under management by 9.6% year-over-year.

September year-to-date orders for space, nuclear, HLNG vehicle tanks, marine and carbon capture end markets have surpassed total fiscal year 2024 orders for each end market. Total company September year-to-date orders have increased 30.1% year over year. While we expect base order momentum to continue, we do not anticipate any large orders in the fourth quarter 2025.   

Sales of $1.1 billion in the third quarter 2025 grew 3.6% with a difficult comparison in our Repair, Service and Leasing (“RSL”) segment. RSL had a non-repeat of certain aftermarket equipment purchases and the completion of a specific customer’s large field service project in the third quarter 2024. Total company sales excluding RSL increased 9.7%.

Gross profit as a percent of sales of 34.1% was flat when compared to the third quarter 2024 considering the above-mentioned difficult year ago comparison at RSL. Reported operating (loss) income of ($88.5) million was $251.5 million when adjusting for deal-related costs associated with the now terminated proposed merger with Flowserve, deal costs related to the proposed acquisition by Baker Hughes, and step-up amortization related to the Howden acquisition, resulted in a 22.9% adjusted operating income margin. EBITDA of ($29.7) million was $277.1 million (25.2% of sales) when adjusting for deal-related and restructuring costs. Reported diluted earnings per share (“EPS”) of ($3.23) was $2.78 when adjusted, an increase of 27.5% compared to third quarter 2024.

Third quarter 2025 segment results (as compared to the third quarter 2024).

Cryo Tank Solutions (“CTS”): Third quarter 2025 CTS orders of $116.1 million decreased 8.0% in total when compared to the third quarter 2024. CTS third quarter 2025 sales of $151.2 million declined 7.0% year-over-year driven by lower sales in industrial gas. CTS third quarter 2025 adjusted operating income margin of 11.1% decreased 510 bps versus the third quarter 2024 primarily related to lower sales and the impact from pass-through inflation.

Heat Transfer Systems: Third quarter 2025 HTS orders of $760.8 million increased 79.1% compared to the third quarter of 2024 driven by data center, LNG and traditional energy end markets. HTS sales of $349.3 million in the third quarter 2025 increased 36.3% driven by LNG and conversion of data center backlog to sales. HTS third quarter 2025 adjusted operating income margin of 34.6% grew 1,010 basis points (“bps”) driven by productivity and project mix including more full solution sales.

Specialty Products: Specialty Products third quarter 2025 orders of $438.5 million grew 84.4% year-over-year with meaningful increases in carbon capture, nuclear, and mining end markets.   Third quarter Specialty Products sales of $269.9 million decreased 4.7% driven by year-over-year decreases in HLNG vehicle tanks and mining due to customer timing and the non-repeat of higher hydrogen liquefaction sales in the third quarter 2024 which offset sales growth in marine, infrastructure, and space end markets. Adjusted operating income margin of 15.7% in Specialty Products in the third quarter 2025 decreased 100 bps year-over-year, driven by higher production costs on a specific first of a kind (“FOAK”) project and lower HLNG vehicle tank sales.

Repair, Service and Leasing: RSL third quarter 2025 orders of $365.0 million decreased 3.4% when compared to the third quarter 2024 due to a larger than typical aftermarket equipment order which converted in the third quarter 2024 and did not repeat in third quarter 2025. Orders for retrofit and spares increased year-over-year. RSL September year-to-date orders increased 19.7% year over year while service agreements increased 42%, with the highest number of new adds in the third quarter 2025. RSL sales of $330.2 million declined 8.4% driven by the non-repeat of certain aftermarket equipment purchases and the completion of a specific customer’s large field service project in the third quarter 2024. Third quarter 2025 RSL adjusted operating income margin was 34.6% and was in our anticipated RSL gross margin range, yet 460 bps lower than the prior year quarter due to the above-mentioned larger than typical aftermarket equipment sale not repeating in third quarter 2025.  

Balance sheet and free cash flow.

Reported net cash from operating activities of $118.0 million less capital expenditures of $23.3 million resulted in $94.7 million of free cash flow. Cash flow for the quarter was negatively impacted by deal-related costs associated with the now terminated proposed merger with Flowserve and proposed acquisition by Baker Hughes and $79.0 million of semi-annual interest, which is paid in the first and third quarter of the year. Our third quarter 2024 FCF also benefitted from the above mentioned larger than typical aftermarket equipment sales. Third quarter 2025 net leverage ratio of 2.78 compares to second quarter 2025 net leverage ratio of 2.85 (and 3.04 in third quarter 2024), our lowest net leverage ratio metric since the close of the Howden acquisition.

Each share of the Company’s Series B Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock (“Preferred Stock”) will automatically convert on or around December 15, 2025 into between 7.0520 and 8.4620 shares of Common Stock (and, correspondingly, each Depositary Share representing a 1/20^th interest in a share of Preferred Stock will automatically convert into 0.3526 and 0.4231 shares of Common Stock), subject to customary anti-dilution adjustments, determined based on the volume-weighted average price of our Common Stock over the 20 consecutive trading days period beginning on, and including, the 21^st scheduled trading day prior to December 15, 2025.

Pending acquisition of Chart by Baker Hughes.

On October 6, 2025 Chart’s shareholders voted to approve the Company’s acquisition by Baker Hughes, with shares representing approximately 99% of the shares present and voting at the meeting cast in favor of the proposal (additional details are in our 8-K filed on 10/6/2025). Under the terms of the merger agreement, Chart shareholders will be entitled to receive $210 per share of common stock in cash upon the close of the transaction.

The transaction is expected to be completed by mid-year 2026, subject to customary conditions and the receipt of applicable regulatory approvals.

As previously stated in our second quarter 2025 earnings release, we are not providing 2025 guidance due to the proposed acquisition of Chart by Baker Hughes.
