Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements – September 30, 2019March 31, 2020
(Dollars and shares in millions, except per share amounts)


NOTE 1 — Basis of Preparation
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of Chart Industries, Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries (herein referred to as the “Company,” “Chart,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles for annual financial statements. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018.2019. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019March 31, 2020 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2019.
On July 1, 2019, we completed the acquisition of Harsco Corporation’s Industrial Air-X-Changers (“AXC”). AXC is a leading supplier of custom engineered and manufactured air cooled heat exchangers for the natural gas compression and processing industry and refining and petrochemical industry in the United States. See Note 10, “Business Combinations”, for further information regarding the acquisition of AXC.2020.
Nature of Operations: We are a leading independentdiversified global manufacturer of highly engineered equipment servicing multiple market applications in Energyenergy and Industrial Gas.industrial gas. Our unique product portfolio is used throughout the liquid gas supply chain in the production, storage, distribution and end-use of atmospheric, hydrocarbon, and industrial gases. Chart has domestic operations located across the United States and an international presence in Asia, Australia, Europe and the Americas.
Principles of Consolidation: The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Chart Industries, Inc. and its subsidiaries. Intercompany accounts and transactions are eliminated in consolidation.
Reclassifications: Certain reclassifications have been made to prior year financial information in the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in order to conform to the reportable segments restructuring as further discussed in Note 3,2, “Reportable Segments.”
Use of Estimates: The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP 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. Furthermore, we considered the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the use of estimates and assumptions used for financial reporting and determined that there was no adverse material impact to our results of operations for the first quarter of 2020. While our production is considered “essential” in all locations we operate in, we have experienced, and may experience in the future, temporary facility closures while awaiting appropriate government approvals in certain jurisdictions. The COVID-19 outbreak could also disrupt our supply chain and materially adversely impact our ability to secure supplies for our facilities, which could materially adversely affect our operations. There may also be long-term effects on our customers in and the economies of affected countries. As a result of these uncertainties, actual results could differ from those estimates and assumptions. If the economy or markets in which we operate remain weak or deteriorate further, our business, financial condition and results of operations may be materially and adversely impacted.
On March 27, 2020, the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (the “CARES Act”) was signed into law in the United States. The CARES Act, among other things, includes modifications to net operating loss carryforwards provisions and the net interest expense deduction, and deferment of social security tax payments. We are currently evaluating the provisions of the CARES Act and how certain elections may impact our financial position, results of operations, and disclosures if elected.
Share Repurchase Program: On March 11, 2020, our Board of Directors authorized a share repurchase program for up to $75 million of the Company’s common stock over the next twelve months through various means, including open market transactions, block purchases, privately negotiated transactions or otherwise in accordance with applicable federal securities laws, including Rule 10b-18 and Rule 10b5-1 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. During the three months ended March 31, 2020, we repurchased 0.76 shares of our common stock at an average price of $25.40 per share. We suspended the program on March 20, 2020 in light of uncertainty resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic and the desire to conserve cash resources. As of March 31, 2020, we had approximately $55.7 available for additional repurchases under the share repurchase program.
Recently Issued Accounting Standards (Not Yet Adopted): In January 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-01, “Investments - Equity Securities (Topic 321), Investments - Equity Method and Joint Ventures (Topic 323), and Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815).” This ASU clarifies the interactions between the measurement alternative in Topic 321, the equity method of accounting in Topic 323 and the application of guidance for certain forward contracts and purchased options that upon settlement or exercise would be accounted for under the equity method of accounting in Topic 815.

the subsequent modifications are identified as Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 326.

As reported in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the new guidance an entity was required to provide certain disclosures regarding stranded tax effects. The guidance was effective for fiscal years beginning afteryear ended December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those years. We adopted this guidance effective January 1, 2019. The adoption31, 2019, the structure of this guidance did not impact our financial position, resultsinternal organization is divided into the following reportable segments, which are also our operating segments: Distribution and Storage Eastern Hemisphere (“D&S East”), Distribution and Storage Western Hemisphere (“D&S West”), Energy & Chemicals Cryogenics (“E&C Cryogenics”), and Energy & Chemicals FinFans (“E&C FinFans”).
Our D&S East segment has principal operations in Europe and Asia and primarily serves the geographic regions of operations or disclosures.
In August 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-12, “DerivativesEurope, Middle East and Hedging (Topic 815): Targeted Improvements to Accounting for Hedging Activities.” The ASU expands and enhances hedge accounting to become more closely aligned with an entity’s risk management activities through hedging strategies. The ASU provides changes to both the designation and measurement guidance for qualifying hedging relationships and the presentation of hedge resultsAsia. Our D&S West segment has principal operations in the financial statementsUnited States and creates more transparencyLatin America and better understandabilityprimarily serves the Americas geographic region. Our D&S West segment also includes cryobiological storage manufacturing and distribution operations in the U.S., Europe and Asia, which serve customers around how economic resultsthe world. E&C Cryogenics supplies critical engineered equipment and systems used in the separation, liquefaction, and purification of hydrocarbon and industrial gases that span gas-to-liquid applications.

Effective January 1, 2019, (the “Commencement Date”) we adopted the new lease accounting standard using the modified retrospective transition option of applying the new standard at the adoption date for all leases with terms greater than 12 months. The adoption of the new standard resulted in the recording of operating ROU assets, primarily consisting of leased facilities and equipment and operating lease liabilities of $34.8 as of the Commencement Date.

We elected certain practical expedients(Dollars and as such did not reassess the following: 1) whether any expired or existing contracts are or contain leases, 2) lease classification for any expired or existing leases, 3) initial direct costs for any expired or existing leases and 4) whether existing or expired land easements are or contain leases. However, we will evaluate new or modified land easements under the new guidance after the Commencement Date. We also elected the practical expedient to not separate lease and non-lease components. In addition, we implemented internal controls and key system functionality to enable the preparation of financial information on adoption.shares in millions, except per share amounts) – Continued
At lease inception, we determine if an arrangement is a lease and if it includes options to extend or terminate the lease if it is reasonably certain that the options will be exercised. Lease expense for lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Operating leases are recognized as ROU assets and are included within property, plant and equipment, net and lease liabilities are included in operating lease liabilities, current and operating lease liabilities, non-current in our unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet as of the Commencement Date and at September 30, 2019. ROU assets represent our right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent our obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease.

During the third quarter of 2019, we made an investment in Stabilis Energy, Inc. (“Stabilis”) by converting $7.0 of a note receivable from Stabilis into an investment in their company stock. As most of March 31, 2020, the value of the investment was $2.1, which reflects a $4.8 unrealized loss upon conversion and subsequent mark-to-market. Gains and losses for this investment in equity securities were recorded in unrealized loss on investment in equity securities on the consolidated statement of income and comprehensive loss during the three months ended March 31, 2020.
We categorize our leasesfinancial assets and liabilities that are recorded at fair value into a hierarchy based on whether the inputs to valuation techniques are observable to unobservable. Level 2 inputs represent 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. The Stabilis investment is measured at fair value on the condensed consolidated balance sheet as of March 31, 2020 using Level 2 inputs.

The weighted-average discount rate was 4.7% at September 30, 2019.March 31, 2020.
We incurred $3.1 and $2.0 of rental expense under operating leases for the quarters ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, 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. We incurred $2.7 and $2.0 of rental expense under operating leases for the three months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. Rental expense under operating leases for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018 was $6.8 and $6.2, respectively.

NOTE 36Reportable SegmentsInventories
As reported in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018, the structure of our internal organization was divided into the following reportable segments, which were also our operating segments: Energy & Chemicals (“E&C”), Distribution and Storage Western Hemisphere (“D&S West”) and Distribution and Storage Eastern Hemisphere (“D&S East”). Corporate includes operating expenses for executive management, accounting, tax, treasury, corporate development, human resources, information technology, investor relations, legal, internal audit, and risk management. Corporate support functions are not currently allocated to the segments.
Upon closing of our acquisition of AXC (see Note 10, “Business Combinations” for more information), effective July 1, 2019, we changed our reportable segments from 3 segments to 4 segments: (i) D&S East, (ii) D&S West, (iii) Energy & Chemicals Cryogenics (“E&C Cryogenics”), and (iv) Energy & Chemicals FinFans (“E&C FinFans”). AXC was combined with Chart’s Hudson Products business and Chart Cooler Services businesses from the prior E&C segment to create a new segment called E&C FinFans. The E&C FinFans segment is focused on our unique and broad product offering and capabilities in air cooled heat exchangers (“ACHX”) and fans. E&C Cryogenics supplies mission critical engineered equipment and systems used in the separation, liquefaction, and purification of hydrocarbon and industrial gases that span gas-to-liquid applications. All prior period amounts presented in the tables below have been reclassified based on our current reportable segments.
The following table represents information for our reportable segments and our corporate function:summarizes the components of inventory:

The amount of revenue recognized during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 from performance obligations satisfied or partially 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, 2019, the estimated revenue expected to be recognized in the future related to remaining performance obligations was $755.6. We expect to recognize revenue on approximately 86% of the remaining performance obligations over the next 12 months and with the remaining over the next few years thereafter.

Investment in equity securities
During the third quarter of 2019, we made an investment in Stabilis Energy, Inc. (“Stabilis”) by converting $7.0 of a note receivable from Stabilis into an investment in their company stock. As of September 30, 2019, the value of the investment was $9.6, which reflects a $2.6 unrealized gain upon conversion and mark-to-market for this investment in equity securities recorded in other income (expense), net on the condensed consolidated statement of income and comprehensive income during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019.
We categorize our financial assets and liabilities that are recorded at fair value into a hierarchy based on whether the inputs to valuation techniques are observable to unobservable. Level 1 inputs represent quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities as of the measurement date. The Stabilis investment is measured at fair value in the condensed consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2019 using Level 1 inputs.
Equity method accounting investments
Our equity investments accounted for under the equity method of accounting include a 50% ownership interest in a joint venture with Hudson Products de Mexico S.A. de CV which totaled $3.0 at September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018. This investment is operated and managed by our joint venture partner and as such, we do not have control over the joint venture and therefore is not consolidated. Our equity in earnings from this investment was $0.3 million for both the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018. Earnings for the third quarter of 2019 and 2018 were not material. Additionally, we have a 25% ownership interest in Liberty LNG which we invested in during the third quarter of 2019 which totaled $3.3 at September 30, 2019.No earnings or losses have been recorded for this investment.

As of September 30, 2019, there was $450.0 in borrowings outstandingthe future, (iii) incorporates a “cash hoarding” prevention covenant and (iv) incorporates various amendments to reflect interest rate floor and other changes to the Loan Syndications and Trading Association and Loan Market Association market standards for credit agreements.  The terms and conditions under the term loan bearing an interest rate of 3.29%. The term loan was a delayed draw loan and was not drawn until July 1, 2019 and has a defined amortization schedule,2024 Credit Facilities are otherwise substantially the same as defined bythose prior to the credit agreement. Under the terms of the 2019 Credit Facility, 2.5% of the $450.0 term loan is payable annually in quarterly installments over the first two years, 5.0% is payable annually in quarterly installments over the third year, 7.5% is payable annually in quarterly installments over the fourth year and 10.0% is payable annually in quarterly installments over the fifth and final year. A ticking fee is required on the term loan, which ranges from 20 to 35 basis points of the unused balances which went into effect in July 2019 when drawn. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, the ticking fee was $0.1.amendment.
We recorded $6.1 in deferred debt issuance costs in conjunction with the 2024 Credit Facilities, which is included in long-term debt in the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet at September 30, 2019,March 31, 2020, associated with the term loan, which is being amortized over its five-year term beginning in July 2019.
The SSRCF includes a $100.0 sub-limit for letters of credit, a $250.0 sub-limit for discretionary letters of credit and a $50.0 sub-limit for swingline loans. We are required to pay a commitment fee on the SSRCF which ranges from 20 to 35 basis points of the respective unused balances. The letter of credit participation fee equals the daily aggregate letter of credit exposure at the rate per annum equal to the Applicable Margin for Eurocurrency Revolving Facility Borrowings (as defined, ranging from 1.25% to 2.25%, based on the calculated leverage ratio). A fronting fee must be paid on each letter of credit that is issued equal to 0.125% per annum of the stated dollar amount of the letter of credit.
We paid $7.5 in deferred debt issuance costs related to the amended SSCRF and included $2.5 of the unamortized debt issuance costs from the priorprevious senior secured revolving credit facility, which are presented in other assets in the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet at September 30, 2019March 31, 2020 and are being amortized over the five-year term of the SSRCF. At September 30, 2019,March 31, 2020, unamortized debt issuance costs associated with the SSRCF were $9.5. In conjunction with the amendment of our credit facilities, we wrote off $0.2 in unamortized deferred debt issuance costs which related to the previous senior secured revolving credit facility.
As of September 30, 2019, there was $149.8 in borrowings outstanding under the SSRCF bearing a weighted-average interest rate of 1.99% and $61.2 in letters of credit and bank guarantees outstanding supported by the SSRCF. At September 30, 2019, the SSRCF had availability of $339.0.$8.5.

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”). 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 are 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 2024 Notes may be settled in cash, shares of our common stock or a combination of cash and shares of our common stock, at our election (subject to, and in accordance with, the settlement provisions of the 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 is equal to an initial conversion price of approximately $58.725 per share, representing a conversion 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 the maturity date as described in the Indenture, we will pay a make-whole premium by increasing the conversion rate for a holder who elects to convert its 2024 Notes in connection with such a corporate event in certain circumstances. For purposes of calculating earnings per share, if the average market price of our common stock exceeds the applicable conversion price during the periods reported, shares contingently issuable under the 2024 Notes will have a dilutive effect with respect to our common stock. Since the conversion price of $58.725 exceeded our closing common stock price of $62.36$28.98 at the end of the period, exceeded the conversion price of $58.725, the if-converted value exceededdid not exceed the principal amount of the 2024 Notes by approximately $16.0 at September 30, 2019.March 31, 2020. 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 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. Upon conversion, we may settle the conversion by paying or delivering either shares of our common stock, solely cash, or a combination of cash and shares of our common stock, at our election. It is our intention to settle the principal amount of the 2024 Notes in cash and excess conversion value in shares of our common stock.
We reassess the convertibility of the 2024 Notes and the related balance sheet classification on a quarterly basis. As of September 30, 2019,March 31, 2020, events for early conversion were not met, and thus the 2024 Notes were not convertible as of and for the fiscal quarter beginning OctoberApril 1, 2019.2020. There have been no conversions as of the date of this filing.
We allocated the gross proceeds of the 2024 Notes between the liability and equity components of the 2024 Notes. The initial liability component of $200.1, which was recorded as long-term debt, represents the fair value of similar debt instruments that have no conversion rights. The initial equity component of $58.7, which was recorded as additional paid-in capital, represents the debt discount and was calculated as the difference between the fair value of the liability component and gross proceeds of the 2024 Notes. The liability component was recognized at the present value of its associated cash flows using a 4.8% straight-debt rate and is being accreted to interest expense over the term of the 2024 Notes.
We recorded $5.3 in deferred debt issuance costs associated with the 2024 Notes, which are being amortized over the term of the 2024 Notes using the effective interest method. We also recorded $1.5 in equity issuance costs, which was recorded as a reduction to additional paid-in capital.

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.
2018 Convertible Notes
On August 1, 2018, our 2.00% Convertible Senior Subordinated Notes due August 2018 (the “2018 Notes”) matured. The aggregate outstanding principal was $57.1 at August 1, 2018. During the nine months ended September 30, 2018, we settled upon maturity the 2018 Notes for total cash consideration of $57.1. Additionally, $0.6 of interest, which had previously been accrued, was paid at settlement.

Convertible Note Hedge, Capped Call and Warrant Transactions Associated with the 2018 Notes
The convertible note hedge and capped call transactions associated with the 2018 Notes expired in August 2018, with immaterial exercises. Approximately 90% of the separate warrants associated with the 2018 Notes expired without exercise. Prior to the expiration date of February 26, 2019, a portion of the separate warrants were exercised. These exercises were not material.
Foreign Facilities
In various markets where we do business, we have local credit facilities to meet local working capital demands, fund letters of credit and bank guarantees, and support other short-term cash requirements. The facilities generally have variable interest rates and are denominated in local currency but may, in some cases, facilitate borrowings in multiple currencies. As of September 30,

The preliminary fair value of the acquired tangible and identifiable intangible assets were determined based on inputs that are unobservable and significant to the overall

fair value measurement. It is also based on estimates and assumptions made by management at the time of the acquisition. As such, this was classified as Level 3 fair value hierarchy measurements and disclosures. The excess of the purchase price over the estimated fair values is assigned to goodwill.
We estimated the preliminary fair value of acquired developedunpatented technology and trademarks and trade names using the relief from royalty method. The preliminary fair values of acquired customer backlog and customer relationships were estimated using the multi-period excess earnings method. Under both the relief from royalty and multi-period excess earnings methods, the fair value models incorporated estimates of future cash flows, estimates of allocations of certain assets and cash flows, estimates of future growth rates, and management’s judgment regarding the applicable discount rates to use to discount such estimates of cash flows. The preliminary estimated useful lives of identifiable finite-lived intangible assets range from one to 1214 years.
DuringThe excess of the third quarterpurchase price over the estimated fair values is assigned to goodwill. The preliminary estimated goodwill was established due to benefits including the combination of 2019, we prepared a preliminary fair value analyses of acquired assetsstrong engineering and liabilitiesmanufacturing cultures which will continue to further develop full service solutions for our worldwide customer base, as well as certain other analyses. the benefits derived from the anticipated synergies of AXC integrating with our E&C FinFans segment. Goodwill recorded for the AXC acquisition is expected to be deductible for tax purposes.
The acquisition consideration allocation below has been updated based on this valuation but remains preliminary. As additional information becomes available, we may further revise the preliminary acquisition consideration allocation during the remainder of the measurement period, which shall not exceed twelve months from the closing of the acquisition. Any such revisions or changes may be material. Those areas that are subject to change, include the following:
certain assumptions regarding the backlog intangible asset valuation including its useful life,
finalizing the PP&E valuation and the respective useful lives for certain asset categories, and
finalizing the evaluation of the income tax accounting considerations, including income tax effects of the above matters.

VRV Acquisition
On November 15, 2018, Chart completed the acquisition of VRV pursuant to the terms of the Amended and Restated Share Purchase Agreement (the “Amendment”) with the original parties as well as VRV that replaced in full the original Purchase Agreement. Immediately thereafter, we assigned all of our rights and obligations under the Amendment to VRV Holdings S.r.l. (“Holdings”), a newly formed Italian subsidiary of Chart. The Amendment provided a revised transaction structure pursuant to which Holdings acquired VRV Technoservice S.r.l. (“VRV Technoservice”), a newly formed Italian company wholly owned by VRV (the “Acquisition”). Prior to the Acquisition, as contemplated in the Amendment, VRV contributed substantially all of its business to VRV Technoservice. VRV Technoservice changed its name to VRV S.r.l. following the Acquisition.
The Acquisition purchase price was 191.1 million euros (equivalent to $216.1), net of cash assumed of 1.3 million euros (equivalent to $1.4), is inclusive of the base purchase price of 125.0 million euros (equivalent to $141.3) paid in cash, assumed indebtedness of VRV, which was paid off immediately at closing or shortly thereafter, of 63.7 million euros (equivalent to $72.0), and net working capital and other agreed-upon purchase price adjustments finalized during the first half of 2019 of 3.7 million euros (equivalent to $4.2) which was settled early in the second quarter of 2019. Additional indebtedness of VRV of 4.4 million euros (equivalent to $4.9) was assumed at the acquisition date and paid off during the first and second quarters of 2019. All U.S. dollar equivalent dollar amounts are based on the exchange rate as of the acquisition date. We funded the Acquisition, including the subsequent payoff of assumed indebtedness, with borrowings of 140.0 million euros (equivalent to $160.3) from our former

senior secured revolving credit facility and the remainder with cash on hand.
VRV, which has operations in Italy, France and India, is a diversified multinational corporation with highly automated, purpose-built facilities for the design and manufacture of pressure equipment serving the cryogenic and energy & petrochemical end markets. VRV’s results are included in our E&C Cryogenics and D&S East segments from the date of the Acquisition.
As defined in our significant accounting policy for business combinations in Note 2, of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018, we preliminarily allocated the Acquisition consideration to tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their preliminary estimated fair values as of the Acquisition date. The preliminary fair value of the acquired tangible and identifiable intangible assets were determined based on inputs that are unobservable and significant to the overall fair value measurement. It is also based on estimates and assumptions made by management at the time of the Acquisition. As such, this was classified as Level 3 fair value hierarchy measurements and disclosures.
During the third quarter of 2019, we prepared a preliminary fair value analyses of acquired assets and liabilities as well as certain other analyses. The Acquisition consideration allocation below has been updated based on this valuation but remains preliminary. We expect to finalize the purchase price allocation and make the necessary adjustments during the fourth quarter of 2019. Any such revisions or changes may be material. Those areas that are subject to change, include the following:
finalizing the inventory valuation and certain other working capital accounts,
certain assumptions regarding the customer relationship intangible asset valuation,
finalizing the PP&E valuation and the respective useful lives for certain asset categories, and
finalizing the evaluation of the income tax accounting considerations, including income tax effects of the above matters.
The preliminary estimated useful lives of identifiable finite-lived intangible assets range from 2 to 12 years. The excess of the purchase price over the estimated fair values is assigned to goodwill. The preliminary estimated goodwill was established due to benefits including the combination of strong engineering and manufacturing cultures which will continue to further develop full service solutions for our worldwide customer base, as well as the benefits derived from the anticipated synergies of VRV integrating with Chart’s E&C Cryogenics and D&S East segments. Goodwill recorded for the VRV acquisition is not expected to be deductible for tax purposes.
The following table summarizes the preliminary estimated fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed in the VRV acquisition as of the acquisition date:

During the nine month period ending September 30, 2019, net assets acquired included adjustments to other net assets and goodwill based on U.S. GAAP purchase accounting primarily due to inventory valuation and balance sheet accounts related to revenue recognition. Net assets acquired, including goodwill, was also adjusted to reflect the net working capital and other agreed-upon purchase price adjustments of $4.2 negotiated during the nine month period ending September 30, 2019.

The following unaudited supplemental pro forma sales are based on our historical consolidated financial statements and VRV’s historical consolidated financial statements as adjusted to give effect to the November 15, 2018 acquisition of VRV. The unaudited supplemental pro forma sales information for the periods presented gives effect to the Acquisition as if it had occurred on January 1, 2018. The unaudited supplemental pro forma sales for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018 for the Company including VRV would have been approximately $297.1 and $878.2. It is impracticable to disclose the pro forma net income and pro forma net income per share information because of significant differences between Chart accounting policies following U.S. GAAP and those followed by VRV.
The unaudited pro forma sales information is presented for informational purposes only and is not necessarily indicative of the results of operations that actually would have resulted had the Acquisition been in effect at the beginning of the period presented. In addition, the unaudited pro forma sales results are not intended to be a projection of future results and do not reflect any operating efficiencies or cost savings that might be achievable.
Skaff Acquisition
On January 2, 2018, we acquired 100% of the equity interests of Skaff Cryogenics and Cryo-Lease, LLC (together “Skaff”) for an approximate purchase price of $12.5, net of cash acquired. Skaff provides quality repair service and re-manufacturing of cryogenic and liquefied natural gas storage tanks and trailers and also maintains a portfolio of cryogenic storage equipment that is leased to customers for temporary and permanent needs. Skaff is headquartered in Brentwood, New Hampshire and provides services and equipment to customers in North America. Skaff’s results are included in the D&S West operating segment. During the first quarter of 2019, the Skaff purchase price allocation was finalized, which resulted in an adjustment to the opening balance sheet increasing long-term deferred tax liabilities and goodwill each by $0.8.
Additional information related to the Skaff acquisition has not been presented because the impact on our consolidated results of operations and financial position is not material.
Contingent Consideration
The estimated fair value of contingent consideration related to the 2015 Thermax acquisition of our D&S West segment, was $1.8 at the date of acquisition and was valued according to a discounted cash flow approach, which included assumptions regarding the probability of achieving certain earnings targets and a discount rate applied to the potential payments. Potential payments were due to be paid before July 1, 2019 based on the attainment of certain earnings targets. The earnings targets for Thermax were below the minimum threshold so no contingent consideration was paid for the final year of the four year earn-out period.

The effective income tax rate from continuing operations of 16.0% and 20.6% for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018, differed from the U.S. federal statutory rate of 21% primarily due to the effect of income earned by certain of the Company’s foreign entities being taxed at higher rates than the U.S. federal statutory rate as well as losses incurred by certain of our Chinese operations for which no benefit was recorded.
As of September 30, 2019March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2018,2019, we had a liability for gross unrecognized tax benefits from continuing operations of $2.1$2.5 and $2.3,$2.4, respectively.

Furthermore, share-based compensation expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 included a $1.8 credit due to forfeitures related to the departure of our former Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) on June 11, 2018. Share-based compensation expense is included in selling, general, and administrative expenses in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income.loss. As of September 30, 2019,March 31, 2020, total share-based compensation of $12.1$15.9 is expected to be recognized over the weighted-average period of approximately 2.12.4 years.
NOTE 15 — Commitments and Contingencies
Aluminum Cryobiological Tank RecallEnvironmental
In April 2018,We are subject to federal, state, local, and foreign environmental laws and regulations concerning, among other matters, waste water effluents, air emissions, and handling and disposal of hazardous materials, such as cleaning fluids. We are involved with environmental compliance, investigation, monitoring, and remediation activities at certain of our owned and formerly owned manufacturing facilities and at one owned facility that is leased to a third party, and, except for these continuing remediation efforts, believes we received several customer inquiriesare currently in substantial compliance with all known environmental regulations. At March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, we had undiscounted accrued environmental reserves of $0.4 and $0.6, respectively. We accrue for certain environmental remediation-related activities for which commitments or remediation plans have been developed and for which costs can be reasonably estimated. These estimates are determined based upon currently available facts and circumstances regarding each facility. Actual costs incurred may vary from these estimates due to the performanceinherent uncertainties involved. Future expenditures relating to these environmental remediation efforts are expected to be made over the next seven years as ongoing costs of certain aluminum cryobiological tanks (in the D&S West segment) manufactured at our New Prague, Minnesota facility. An investigation determined that certain aluminum tanks manufactured at the facility during a limited certain period should be repaired or replaced.  As such, on April 23, 2018,remediation programs.
Although we issued a recall noticebelieve we have adequately provided for the impacted product lines.  Our D&S West segment recorded an expense of $3.8 to cost of sales forall known environmental conditions, the duringapplicable regulatory agencies could insist upon different and more costly remediation than those we believe are adequate or required by existing law or third parties may seek to impose environmental liabilities on us. We believe that any additional liability in excess of amounts accrued which may result from the second quarterresolution of 2018 related to the estimated costssuch matters will not have a material adverse effect on our financial position, liquidity, cash flows or results of the recall. As of September 30, 2019, there was no remaining liability related to the tank recall.  operations.
Legal Proceedings
Stainless Steel Cryobiological Tank Legal Proceedings
During the second quarter of 2018, Chart was named in lawsuits (including a class action lawsuit filed in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California) filed against Chart and other defendants with respect to the alleged failure of a stainless steel cryobiological storage tank (model MVE 808AF-GB) at the Pacific Fertility Center in San Francisco, California.  We continue to evaluate the merits of such claims in light of the limited information available to date regarding use, maintenance and operation of the tank which has been out of our custody for the past six years when itthat was sold to the Pacific Fertility Center through an independent distributor.distributor and which has been out of our control for six years prior to the alleged failure.  Accordingly, an accrual related to any damages that may result from the lawsuits has not been recorded because a potential loss is not currently probable or estimable.

NOTE 16 — Restructuring Activities
During the first nine monthsquarter of 2019,2020, we implemented certain cost reduction or avoidance actions includingacross all segments and corporate to appropriately size our workforce with demand as well as eliminate redundant work. Costs were primarily related to headcount reductions. These actions resulted in total restructuring costs of $5.2, consisting of mainly employee severance costs. These restructuring activities were substantially completed by the end of the first quarter 2020. We are closely monitoring our end markets and order rates and will continue to take appropriate and timely actions as necessary.
Restructuring charges of $7.4 in the first quarter of 2019 were related to the timing of recognizing costs related to facility consolidations in E&C Cryogenics, D&S West and E&C FinFans and a streamlining of the commercial activities surrounding our Lifecycle business in E&C Cryogenics and E&C FinFans, geographic realignment of our manufacturing capacity and a facility closure in D&S East, as well as departmental restructuring, including headcount reductions in each of these segments. These actions resulted in total restructuring costs of $1.5 and $13.3 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, respectively, consisting of employee severance costs, disposals of property, plant and equipment and other costs. Restructuring costs for the first nine months of 2019 reflect a $1.6 credit to E&C Cryogenics restructuring costs recorded in the second quarter of 2019 due to the successful negotiation of a lease termination for the Lifecycle facility. We expect these restructuring activities will be substantially completed by the end of the year.
During the first nine months of 2018, we implemented certain cost reduction or avoidance actions, primarily related to departmental restructuring, including headcount reductions resulting in associated severance costs. We also executed a strategic realignment of our segment structure, which resulted in severance charges during the third quarter of 2018.reductions.

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. and its consolidated subsidiaries (the “Company,” “Chart,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) isWe are a leading independentdiversified global manufacturer of highly engineered equipment servicing multiple market applications in Energy and Industrial Gas. Our unique product portfolio is used throughout the liquid gas supply chain in the production, storage, distribution and end-use of atmospheric, hydrocarbon,energy and industrial gases. Chart has domestic operations located across the United Statesgas. Our equipment and an international presenceengineered systems are primarily used for low-temperature and cryogenic applications utilizing our expertise in Asia, Australia, Europecryogenic systems and the Americas.
On July 1, 2019, we completed the acquisition of Harsco Corporation’s Air-X-Changers business (“AXC”) pursuant to the previously disclosed Asset Purchase Agreement dated as of May 8, 2019 (the “AXC acquisition”). AXC is a leading supplier of custom-engineered and manufactured air cooled heat exchangers (“ACHX”) for the natural gas compression and processing industry and refining and petrochemical industry in the United States. The ACHX offered by AXC is used in conditioning natural gas during recovery, compression and transportation from underground reserves through major pipeline distribution channels. In addition to natural gas compression and processing, AXC’s products are also used in the turbine lube oil cooling, landfill gas compression and liquids cooling industries. AXC’s end markets include process industries, power generation and refineries. The acquisition of AXC reinforces our strategic focus on core cryogenic engineering and products for the industrial gas and energy spaces. We expect the acquisition of AXC to result in significant annual cost synergies. During our first quarter of ownership, we have achieved over $12 million of cost synergies. Furthermore, we have identified another $9 million of target cost synergies,equipment which will be achieved in addition to the $20 million originally anticipated to be achieved in the first year.
The purchase price for AXC was approximately $599.7 million, including post-closing purchase price adjustments with respect to working capital. We paid $592.0 million of the purchase priceoperate at closing and the final working capital adjustment of $7.7 million was paid during the third quarter of 2019. We incurred $4.2 million and $1.2 million in transaction related costs during the third quarter of 2019 and second quarter of 2019, respectively, related to the AXC acquisition which were recorded in selling, general and administrative expenses on the condensed consolidated statement of income. We funded the purchase price for the AXC acquisition with proceeds from the Chart common stock public offering (the “2019 Equity Offering”) and borrowings under the Fourth Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, which includes a senior secured revolving credit facility (the “SSRCF”) and a term loan (together, the “2019 Credit Facilities”) as further discussed in Liquidity and Capital Resources.
On November 15, 2018, we completed the acquisition of VRV S.r.l. and its subsidiaries (collectively “VRV”)low temperatures sometimes approaching absolute zero (0 Kelvin; -273° Centigrade; -459° Fahrenheit). Additionally, on December 20, 2018, we closed on the sale of all of the equity interests in our oxygen-related products business to NGK SPARK PLUG CO., LTD. (the “Divestiture”). As a result of the Divestiture, the asset group, which included our respiratory and on-site generation systems businesses, qualified for discontinued operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018.
The financial information presented and discussion of results that follows is presented on a continuing operations basis.
Third Quarter 2019 HighlightsCOVID-19 Update
ThirdWhile the recent outbreak of the coronavirus (COVID-19) did not have a material adverse effect on our reported results for the first quarter 2019 orders of $286.2 million decreased sequentially 11.1% over2020, we are actively monitoring the impact of the COVID-19 outbreak on our results of operations for the second quarter of 2020 and beyond. The extent to which our operations will be impacted by the outbreak will largely depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be accurately predicted, including new information which may emerge concerning the severity of the outbreak and actions by government authorities to contain the outbreak or treat its impact, among other things.
All Chart manufacturing locations globally have been deemed essential business by each local and federal government and therefore continue to operate under this status, although we lost a total of 40 production days in the first quarter across our locations, with 26 of those days in our Chinese facilities in late January and early February as we either waited for the approval of our essential status or there was a mandatory government shutdown as in China. As the safety of our team members is our top priority, we have instituted additional precautions while we continue to produce our products not just for critical care medical applications but also for energy infrastructure. During March 2020, we increased production on specific medical oxygen related products by over 65% in the United States and 50% in the Czech Republic. Known order activity for our medical oxygen products used in hospital applications increased 34% in the first quarter 2020 when compared to the first quarter of 2019 and increased 8.5%29% when compared to the third quarter of 2018 (decreased 9.3% organically). The sequential decrease in orders was primarily driven by the delay of orders within our Energy & Chemicals Cryogenics (“E&C Cryogenics”) and Energy & Chemicals FinFans (“E&C FinFans”) segments that were pushed to future periods. The year-over-year increase of 8.5% is primarily due to $23.3 million of VRV orders and $23.6 million of AXC orders in the third quarter of 2019. Ending backlog as of September 30, 2019 was a record $755.6 million compared to $501.5 million as of September 30, 2018.
Third quarter 2019 sales of $357.8 million increased 31.4% from the third quarter of 2018 (decreased 0.1% organically), driven by sales of $60.1 million and $25.9 million from AXC and VRV, respectively. Third quarter 2019 sales also increased 15.6% from the secondfourth quarter of 2019. The regional breakdown compared to the first quarter of 2019 is:
In China, an increase was largely dueof 69%;
In Europe, an increase of 21%;
In India, an increase of 122%; and
In the United States, an increase of 39%.
Additionally, orders for our cryobiological product line, which is used for storage and transport of vaccinations, cell therapy and biological inventory increased by 14% to $60.1$20.8 million in sales from AXC, which was acquired in July 2019.
Third quarter 2019 gross margin as a percent of sales of 28.3% decreased from 30.2% in the thirdfirst quarter of 2018 and increased from 26.7% in2020 when compared to the secondfirst quarter of 2019. The decreaseApril 2020 month to date demand for critical care products has increased. Month to date through April 20, 2020, we received more medical oxygen kit orders in gross profit margin for the thirdUnited States than in the entire first quarter of 2019 was primarily driven by fewer high margin short lead-time replacement equipment sales as compared2020, and total medical oxygen specific demand is already at 39% of the first quarter levels. We expect this COVID-19 related demand to return to “pre-COVID-19” levels later in 2020.
In terms of macro drivers, we continue to see long-term strength in medium and long-term fundamentals of our markets, in particular the thirdtransition to clean energy and the need for infrastructure associated with that. We received orders with 120 new customers in the first quarter of 2018 within our E&C Cryogenics segment2020. Eighty-four of these new customers were outside of North America which continues to demonstrate the continued long-term fundamental global clean energy transition.
On March 27, 2020, the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and unfavorable product mix within our Distribution and Storage Western Hemisphere (“D&S West”Economic Security Act (the “CARES Act”) segment, partially offset by favorable product mix within our E&C FinFans segment. Excluding the impact of AXC, the sequential increase was mainly driven by second quarter 2019 restructuring costs relative to the closing of a facility in China in our Distribution and Storage Eastern Hemisphere (“D&S East”) segment that did not reoccursigned into law in the third quarterUnited States. The CARES Act, among other things, includes modifications to net operating loss carryforwards provisions and the net interest expense deduction, and deferment of 2019.social security tax payments. We are currently evaluating the provisions of the CARES Act and how certain elections may impact our financial position, results of operations, and disclosures if elected.

OutlookFirst Quarter 2020 Highlights
OurOrders for medical oxygen critical care products increased by 34% over the first quarter 2019, fulland we increased associated production by over 50% to meet continued demand for liquid oxygen for COVID-19 patients. We booked a $29.5 million order for a propane dehydrogenation plant in February 2020.
Ending backlog as of March 31, 2020 was $732.5 million compared to $733.8 million as of March 31, 2019, while backlog only decreased by 3.9% from the record high of $762.3 million as of December 31, 2019. Backlog of $732.5 million is flat to first quarter of 2019, which included $135 million of Venture Global Calcasieu Pass big LNG orders. As of the end of the first quarter 2020, there was $93 million of Calcasieu Pass backlog remaining. Excluding Calcasieu Pass, backlog increased 6.8% current quarter over prior year outlook reflects organic year-to-date order growthquarter. In our Distribution and Storage Western Hemisphere (“D&S West”) segment, first quarter 2020 backlog of $150.9 million is the highest in the history of the business; up 18.7% over the first quarter of 2019 and 2.6% over the fourth quarter 2019. Distribution and Storage Eastern Hemisphere (“D&S East”) segment backlog of $221.0 million is the highest for that segment since the first quarter of 2015, aside from fourth quarter of 2019, which included a significant portion of PetroChina LNG related backlog that subsequently was cancelled.  Also worth noting is that we have not had any material cancellations in our segments and the positive contributionsbacklog year to date in any segment.
First quarter 2020 sales of $321.1 million increased 11.0% from the 2018 acquisitionsfirst quarter of VRV2019 (decreased 1.1% organically), driven by sales of $34.9 million from our Air-X-Changers (“AXC”) business and Skaff Cryogenicshigher sales from our systems and Cryo-Lease (together “Skaff”) as well as the July 1, 2019 acquisition of AXC.  We continue to anticipate additional liquefied natural gas (“LNG”) export facility orders in 2020. A majority of upcoming projects for U.S. LNG export have transitioned from utilizing traditional single train baseload 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 projects may use Chart’s patented IPSMR® and IPSMR®+ technology as well as our brazed aluminum heat exchangers within our Energy & Chemicals Cryogenics (“E&C Cryogenics”) segment as we started to execute on big LNG orders.
First quarter 2020 gross margin as a percent of sales of 28.5% increased from 23.2% in the first quarter of 2019 and cold boxesincreased from 25.0% in the fourth quarter of 2019. The increase current quarter over prior year quarter was primarily driven by our E&C Cryogenics and our D&S East segments.
Outlook
Chart’s business is structurally very different during this anticipated downturn than the last downturn in the 2014 to 2016 timeframe.  The composition of the portfolio of products we offer, the acquisition and divestiture activities that have resulted in a much more diverse and geographically broad company and our cost reduction efforts to date set us up for continued earnings and cash flow through an anticipated downturn.  Additionally, in the 2014 to 2016 timeframe, we had virtually no aftermarket, service and repair revenue, while these now account for over 13% of total Chart revenue.  In the prior cycle, we were heavily reliant on one Big LNG project.  We now think of Big LNG as “icing on the main liquefaction heat exchanger technology. Withincake” and have line of sight to growth in many of our base businesses across the third quarter,cycle.  Finally, we received formal noticehave a much more diversified, global footprint which accesses applications and projects that previously were not economical.  A year and a half ago we sold into 21 countries.  We now work on projects and sell into over 70 countries.
Yet even with these changes, there remains a high amount of uncertainty surrounding the potential business impacts from COVID-19.  While we have not yet seen a meaningful impact on total bookings, although a shift from Energy & Chemicals FinFans (“E&C FinFans”) to proceedD&S West and D&S East is expected, we are withdrawing our prior 2020 full year guidance until we have more clarity on the duration and severity of the situation.  While we think it is prudent holding off on issuing new guidance until the situation stabilizes, we can provide the following data points for 2020:
Venture Global’s 10 MTPA Calcasieu Pass LNG export terminal project remains on schedule, with $100 million of expected revenue in our E&C Cryogenics segment in 2020.
We are seeing a Commercial Operations Date expectedshort-term increase in 2022.demand in our medical related products.  Products that we manufacture that can be used in these applications were 21% of total Chart will deliver the equipment on a multi-year schedule in conjunction with BHGE and Kiewit.
Not only are we seeing demand for big LNG, but alsorevenue for the global LNG infrastructure build out. This is a unique opportunity for us as our Distribution and Storage and Energy and Chemicals products serve various global applications ranging from small and utility-scale LNG facilities to fueling stations to regasification plants. This buildout is occurring quickly with LNG importation occurring in 42 countries around the world including India where Chart has signed memorandums of understanding in 2019 with AG&P and IOCL to develop the emerging markets LNG infrastructure. Small scale LNG demand is also growing domestically. We made a strategic investment in Stabilis Energy, Inc. who built a 100,000 LNG gallon per day liquefier in Texas, with the intended purpose to service multiple end markets, including energy, industrial, mining, and Mexican exports. Chart supplied the liquefaction train, storage, gas pre-treatment, and truck loading facilities, which contributed to the record production levels of the plant.full year 2019.
We continue to investexpect strong free cash flow generation in the year, and we have suspended our automation, process improvement,share buyback program.
We continue to prioritize debt paydown.
Year-to-date, we have taken cost reductions totaling over $48.8 million of annualized savings.  This is in addition to the $38 million of savings from cost reductions taken in 2019. 
Our expected effective tax rate remains unchanged at 20% for the full year 2020. 
Our capital expenditures are flexible, and productivity activities acrosswe will continue to assess the Company, with total anticipated 2019spend as the year progresses.  At this time, we anticipate capital investment of $35.0expenditures spend will be in the $25 million to $40.0 million. The total anticipated 2019 capital spend is inclusive$30 million range.

This decrease wasE&C FinFans segment, partially offset by an increase in axial flow fans revenues in the E&C FinFans segment. Sequentially,big LNG sales increased 15.6% mainly due to AXC sales of $60.1 million in the third quarter of 2019. Excluding AXC, sales decreased by 3.8% primarily in the D&S West and D&S East segments with a slight increase inwithin our E&C Cryogenics sales.

During the first quarter of 2018. This increase was largely driven by SG&A expenses associated2020, we implemented certain cost reduction actions across all segments and corporate to appropriately size our workforce with the acquisitions of VRV and AXC. SG&A expenses of $57.5 million for the third quarter of 2019 includesdemand as well as eliminate redundant work. Costs were primarily related to headcount reductions. These actions resulted in total restructuring costs of $0.5$5.2 million, and transaction-related costs, integration costs and other one-time costs of $7.3 million as well as commercial and legal settlement costs of $1.3 million. SG&A expenses of $45.8 million for the third quarter of 2018 includes restructuring costs of $2.0 million and transaction-related costs of $2.0 million.

Results of Operations for the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2019 and 2018
Sales for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 compared to the same period in 2018 increased $162.5 million, from $794.2 million to $956.7 million, or 20.5% (3.2% organically), with increases across all segments. Sales for VRV, included in both the E&C Cryogenics and D&S East segment results since the November 15, 2018 acquisition date were $77.0 million (E&C Cryogenics: $35.0 million, D&S East: $42.0 million). AXC sales of $60.1 million are included in the E&C FinFans segment results since the July 1, 2019 acquisition date. Excluding the impact of VRV and AXC, sales growth was primarily driven by axial flow fans revenues in our E&C FinFans segment and an increase in sales within our D&S West segment related to systems and cryobiological storage products which was partially offset by a decline in packaged gas.
Gross profit increased during the nine months ended September 30, 2019 compared to the same period in 2018 by $29.1 million or 13.1% (1.4% organically), driven by gross profit of $17.7 million and $8.2 million from AXC and VRV, respectively. Excluding AXC and VRV, gross profit increased by $3.2 million. Gross profit included restructuring costs of $10.5 million and $0.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively, which during the first nine months of the year were related to cost reduction or avoidance actions, including facility consolidations in E&C Cryogenics, D&S West and E&C FinFans and a streamlining of the commercial activities surrounding our aftermarket services business in E&C Cryogenics, geographic realignment of our manufacturing capacity and a facility closure in D&S East, as well as departmental restructuring, including headcount reductions in each of these segments. We anticipate these restructuring actions will result in incremental annualized savings of $13.0 million and an anticipated positive impact of $5.4 million on 2019 results. Excluding the impact of the AXC and VRV acquisitions and restructuring costs, gross profit increased by $13.0 million, or 5.5%, primarily driven by higher volume of axial flow fans sales within our E&C FinFans segment. Gross margin as a percent of sales of 26.2% for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 decreased from 28.0% in the same period in 2018. Excluding the impact of the AXC and VRV acquisitions and restructuring costs, gross margin as a percent of sales for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 of 28.8% increased from 27.9% in the same period in 2018.
SG&A expenses increased by $22.5 million ($5.4 million organically), or 16.0% (3.8% organically), during the nine months ended September 30, 2019 compared to the same period in 2018, driven by SG&A expenses of $5.2 million and $11.9 million from AXC and VRV, respectively. Furthermore, transaction-related costs related to the acquisitions of AXC and VRV were $7.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019. Excluding the impact of transaction-related costs, SG&A expenses was 16.6% of sales for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 compared to 16.8% for the nine months ended September 30, 2018.
Interest Expense, Net
Net interest expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018 was $18.5 million and $17.9 million, respectively. Interest expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 included $1.9 million of 1.0% cash interest and $5.7 million of non-cash interest accretion expense related to the carrying value of the convertible notes due 2024, and $11.4 million in interest related to borrowings on our previous and current senior secured revolving credit facility and term loan.
Other (Income) Expense, Net
For the nine months ended September 30, 2019 other income was $2.3 million as compared to an other loss of $0.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2018. The change in other (income) expense, net was primarily driven by an unrealized gain on our investment in equity securities of $2.6 million.
Income Tax Expense
Income tax expense of $9.3 million and $9.7 million for nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018 and represents taxes on both U.S. and foreign earnings at a combined effective income tax rate of 21.3% and 20.6%, respectively. The effective income tax rate of 21.3% for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 differed from the U.S. federal statutory rate of 21% primarily due to tax benefits associated with share-based compensation and income taxes on certain foreign entities earnings being taxed at higher rates than the U.S. federal statutory rate, partially offset by certain Chinese operations losses for which no benefit was recorded.
The effective income tax rate of 20.6% for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 differed from the U.S. federal statutory rate of 21% primarily due to the effect of income earned by certain of the Company’s foreign entities being taxed at higher rates than the federal statutory rate as well as losses incurred by certain of our Chinese operations for which no benefit was recorded.

For the first quarter of 2020, D&S East segment sales increased as compared to the same quarter in 2019. Sales of trailers and engineered systems and tanks in Europe were favorable offset by lower sales in China due to COVID-19 related temporary shutdowns.
During the first quarter of 2020, D&S East segment gross profit increased by $8.2 million as compared to the same quarter in 2019, and the related margin percentage increased by 11.4 percentage points. This increase in gross profit was mainly attributable to higher volume and costs related to the closing of our China brazed aluminum heat exchanger facility that drove higher restructuring costs in the first quarter of 2019. The increase in the related margin percentage was primarily driven by favorable product mix in Europe and favorable foreign currency exchange rates.
D&S East segment SG&A expenses decreased to $9.4 million for the first quarter of 2020 as compared to $9.9 million for the same quarter in 2019, primarily due to lower employee-related expenses.

D&S West segment sales decreased during the first quarter of 2020 as compared to the same quarter in 2019 primarily due to the timing of revenue recognition relative to certain of our LNG products, partially offset by an increase in our packaged gas products, specifically oxygen-related packaged gas tanks.
D&S West segment gross profit decreased slightly during the first quarter of 2020 as compared to the same quarter in 2019 primarily due to lower volume, while the related margin improvement was primarily driven by our parts and repairs services, packaged gas and standard tank products. Given the uncertainty around the length of the COVID-19 impacts, we have seen customers look at further utilizing their existing inventory and in turn, our aftermarket, service and repair business has picked up with D&S West parts, repair and service revenue up nearly 11% as compared to the first quarter 2019.

Excluding the impact of VRV, sales were relatively flat with favorable sales of trailers and LNG fueling stations in Europe offset by lower sales in China largely relative to a decline in bulk tanks and packaged gas products.
During the third quarter of 2019, D&S East segment gross profit increased by $5.1 million (increased by $2.8 million, organically) as compared to the same quarter in 2018. Gross profit as a percentage of sales increased due to favorable trailers product mix in Europe which was partially offset by VRV and unutilized manufacturing capacity in China.
D&S East segment SG&A expenses increased to $8.8 million for the third quarter of 2019 as compared to $7.7 million for the same quarter in 2018, primarily related to VRV.

For the first nine months of 2019, D&S East segment sales increased as compared to the same period in 2018. Sales for VRV, included in the D&S East segment results since the acquisition date, November 15, 2018, were $42.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019. Excluding the impact of VRV, sales were relatively flat with favorable sales of trailers, standard tanks and packaged gas tanks in Europe offset by lower sales in China largely relative to a decline in LNG and bulk products.
During the first nine months of 2019, D&S East segment gross profit and the related margin percentage decreased by $0.4 million (decreased by $5.8 million, organically) as compared to the same period in 2018. Excluding restructuring charges of $7.5 million and $0.5 million, respectively, gross profit increased by $6.6 million. The restructuring charges that negatively impacted the D&S East gross profit and the related margin percentage were primarily related to restructuring costs relative to the closing of our production of brazed aluminum heat exchangers and vehicle tanks in China in 2019 and 2018.
D&S East segment SG&A expenses increased during the first nine months of 2019 as compared to the same period in 2018 primarily driven by the $6.8 million related to VRV. Excluding the impact of the VRV acquisition, SG&A expenses decreased by $3.1 million or 13.6%, mainly driven by lower employee-related costs in China due to workforce reductions.
Corporate
Corporate SG&A expenses increased by $5.7 million during the third quarter of 2019 as compared to the same quarter in 2018 primarily due to payroll and relatedan increase in employee-related costs, as well as costs associated with the acquisition of AXC. Corporate SG&A expenses increased by $6.9 million during the first nine months of 2019 as compared to the same period in 2018 primarily due to increases in share-based compensation expense and acquisition costs, which were partially offset by a decline in payrollrestructuring costs.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Debt Instruments and Related Covenants
Subsequent to the end of the first quarter of 2020, on April 20, 2020, we amended our Fourth Amended and Restated Credit Facility. The amendment, among other things, (i) adjusts the pricing grid in order to accommodate potentially higher leverage ratios, (ii) adjusts factoring related definitions and other related provisions to provide Chart with greater flexibility to enter into such arrangements in the future, (iii) incorporates a “cash hoarding” prevention covenant and (iv) incorporates various amendments to reflect interest rate floor and other changes to the Loan Syndications and Trading Association and Loan Market Association market standards for credit agreements.  The terms and conditions under our Fourth Amended and Restated Credit Facility are otherwise substantially the same as those prior to the amendment. Our debt instruments and related covenants are described in Note 8, “Debt and Credit Arrangements” to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included elsewhereunder Item 1, “Financial Statements” in this report.
Sources and Use of Cash
Our cash and cash equivalents totaled $80.7$89.3 million at September 30, 2019,March 31, 2020, a decrease of $37.4$29.7 million from the balance at December 31, 2018.2019. Our foreign subsidiaries held cash of approximately $55.6$73.4 million and $71.4$75.9 million, at September 30, 2019,March 31, 2020, and December 31, 2018,2019, respectively, to meet their liquidity needs. No material restrictions exist to accessing cash held by our foreign subsidiaries. We expect to meet our U.S. funding needs without repatriating non-U.S. cash and incurring incremental U.S. taxes. Cash equivalents are primarily invested in money market funds that invest in high quality, short-term instruments, such as U.S. government obligations, certificates of deposit, repurchase obligations, and commercial paper issued by corporations that have been highly rated by at least one nationally recognized rating organization, and in the case of cash equivalents in China, obligations of local banks. We believe that our existing cash and cash equivalents, funds available under our senior secured revolving credit facility due NovemberJune 2024 (“SSRCF”) or other financing alternatives, and cash provided by operations will be sufficient to meet our normal working capital needs, capital expenditures and investments in properties, facilities, and equipmentprioritize the pay down of debt for the foreseeable future.
Cash provided by operating activities was $55.3$25.5 million for the ninethree months ended September 30,March 31, 2020, an increase of $58.7 million compared to cash used in operating activities of $33.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019 a decrease of $8.3 million from the balance at September 30, 2018 primarily due to a decrease in operating cash provided by working capital. The decrease inlower working capital was primarily due toin the timingfirst quarter of collections on accounts receivable and payments on amounts due.

Cash Requirements
We do not currently anticipate any unusual cash requirements for working capital needs for the year ending December 31, 2019. During the first half of October 2019, we experienced strong cash collections within our D&S West segment, and expect this trend to drive positive operating cash flows for the fourth quarter of 2019.2020. 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. Our convertible notes due 2024 currently do not meet the requirements for early conversion.  Capital expenditures for the remaining threenine months of 20192020 is expected to be in the range of $10.0$15 million to $15.0$20 million.
Orders and Backlog
We consider orders to be those for which we have received a firm signed purchase order or other written contractual commitment from the customer. Backlog is comprised of the portion of firm signed purchase orders or other written contractual commitments from customers for which work has not been performed, or is partially completed, that we have not recognized as revenue and excludes unexercised contract options and potential orders. Our backlog as of September 30, 2019March 31, 2020 was $755.6$732.5 million and is flat compared to $501.5$733.8 million as of September 30, 2018 and $752.8March 31, 2019 which included $135 million as of June 30, 2019.Venture Global Calcasieu Pass big

D&S East segment orders for the three months ended March 31, 2020 were $70.4 million compared to $83.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and $91.9 million for the three months ended December 31, 2019. The decrease in D&S East segment orders during the three months ended March 31, 2020 when compared to the same quarter last year was primarily driven by unfavorable engineering systems and tanks and mobile equipment in Europe; partially offset by favorable LNG systems at VRV India. The decrease from the fourth quarter of 2019 was mainly due to record trailer and LNG fueling station orders that occurred in the prior quarter; partially offset by increases in standard tanks and packaged gas in Europe. D&S East segment backlog at March 31, 2020 totaled $221.0 million compared to $196.2 million as of March 31, 2019 and $224.0 million as of December 31, 2019.
D&S West segment orders for the three months ended March 31, 2020 were $117.9 million compared to $114.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019, and $138.4 million for the three months ended December 31, 2019. The increase in D&S West segment orders during the three months ended March 31, 2020 when compared to the same quarter last year was primarily driven by favorable industrial gas and packaged gas slightly offset by unfavorable engineering systems. The decrease from fourth quarter 2019 was mainly due to a $21 million LNG by rail order, the first of its magnitude for our Gas By Rail (“GBR”) unique offering, that occurred in the prior quarter. In D&S West, first quarter backlog of $150.9 million is the highest in the history of the business; up 18.7% over the first quarter of 2019 and 2.6% over the fourth quarter of 2019. 
E&C Cryogenics segment orders for the three months ended September 30, 2019March 31, 2020 were $35.1$51.2 million compared to $23.5$194.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2018March 31, 2019 and $49.6$54.4 million for the three months ended June 30,December 31, 2019.

As previously mentioned, there was $93 million and $46.2 million related to VRV, respectively. Excluding VRV, the increase inof Calcasieu Pass backlog as compared to the balanceremaining as of September 30, 2018 was primarily driven by petrochemical and natural gas processing applications and Venture Global’s Calcasieu Pass LNG export terminal project.March 31, 2020.

of AXC, orders decreased primarily due to softness in demand for natural gas compression equipment. E&C FinFans segment backlog totaled $136.4$94.7 million as of September 30, 2019,March 31, 2020, compared to $131.1$112.3 million as of September 30, 2018March 31, 2019 and $117.4$105.9 million as of June 30,December 31, 2019. E&C FinFans backlog as of September 30, 2019March 31, 2020 includes $47.7$36.5 million related to AXC.
D&S West segment orders for the three months ended September 30, 2019 were $111.6 million compared to $103.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2018, and $115.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019. The increase was driven by an increase in systems hydrogen and LNG vehicle tank sales, which was partially offset by a decrease in standard tank sales. D&S West segment backlog totaled $127.1 million at September 30, 2019 compared to $130.7 million as of September 30, 2018 and $130.1 million as of June 30, 2019.
D&S East segment orders for the three months ended September 30, 2019 were $76.5 million compared to $75.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2018 and $78.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019. D&S East segment orders include $12.5 million and $12.4 million in orders related to VRV for the three months ended September 30, 2019 and June 30, 2019, respectively. The slight decrease from the second quarter of 2019 in D&S East segment orders was mainly attributable to lower orders in trailers, mobile tanks and packaged gas in Europe partially offset by an increase in orders relative to LNG, bulk tanks and packaged gas in Asia. Excluding the impact of VRV, D&S orders during the third quarter of 2019 were lower as compared to the third quarter of 2018 primarily due to fewer orders for bulk tanks in Asia and trailers in Europe relative to a particularly strong third quarter of 2018. D&S East segment backlog at September 30, 2019 totaled $203.8 million compared to $144.8 million as of September 30, 2018 and $203.4 million as of June 30, 2019.

Forward-looking statements contained herein (including future cash contractual obligations, liquidity, cash flow, orders, results of operations, projected revenues, margins, capital expenditures, industry and business trends, cost synergies and savings objectives and government initiatives, among other matters) or in other statements made by us are made based on management’s expectations and beliefs concerning future events impacting us and are subject to uncertainties and factors relating to our operations and business environment, all of which are difficult to predict and many of which are beyond our control, that could cause the Company’s actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied by forward-looking statements made by us or on our behalf. These include: those found in the riskother factors discussed in Item 1A. “Risk Factors” and the factors discussed in Item 7. “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018,2019, which should be reviewed carefully; risks relating to the recent outbreak of the coronavirus (COVID-19); Chart’s ability to successfully integrate recent acquisitions, and achieve the anticipated revenue, earnings, accretion and other benefits from these acquisitions; estimated segment revenues, future revenue, earnings, cash flows and margin targets and run rates. These factors should not be construed as exhaustive and there may also be other risks that we are unable to predict at this time.
All forward-looking statements attributable to us or persons acting on our behalf apply only as of the date of this Quarterly Report and are expressly qualified in their entirety by the cautionary statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2018,2019, as the same may be updated from time to time. We undertake no obligation to update or revise forward-looking statements which may be made to reflect events or circumstances that arise after the filing date of this document or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events, except as otherwise required by law.
Item 3.Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
In the normal course of business, our operations are exposed to fluctuations in interest rates and foreign currency values that can affect the cost of operating and financing. Accordingly, we address a portion of these risks through a program of risk management.
Interest Rate Risk: Our primary interest rate risk exposure results from the SSRCF’s various floating rate pricing mechanisms. If interest rates were to increase 200 basis points (2 percent) from the weighted-average interest rate of 3.90%2.29% at September 30, 2019,March 31, 2020, and assuming no changes in the $149.8$100.1 million of borrowings outstanding under the SSRCF at September 30, 2019,March 31, 2020, our additional annual expense would be approximately $9.0$2.0 million on a pre-tax basis. For future quarters, the interest rate will increase somewhat as a result of our $450.0$450 million in borrowings under a new term loan on July 1, 2019 in connection with the closing of the AXC acquisition.

Foreign Currency Exchange Rate Risk: We operate in the United States and other 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 incomeloss as reported in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income.loss. Translation exposure is primarily with the euro, the Czech koruna, the Chinese yuan, Indian rupee and the Japanese yen. During the thirdfirst quarter of 2019,2020, the U.S. dollar strengthened in relation to the Czech koruna, the euro and the Chinese yuan by 6%10%, 5%3% and 3%2%, respectively. Additionally, the euro strengthened in relation to the Czech koruna by 8%. At September 30, 2019,March 31, 2020, a hypothetical 10% weakening of the U.S. dollar would not materially affect our financial statements.

Chart’s primary transaction exchange rate exposures are with the euro, the Japanese yen, the Czech koruna, the Australian dollar, the British pound, the Indian rupee, and the Chinese yuan. 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 income and comprehensive incomeloss as a component of foreign currency (gain) loss. We enter into foreign exchange forward contracts to hedge anticipated and firmly committed foreign currency transactions. 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, 2019,March 31, 2020, a hypothetical 10% weakening of the U.S. dollar would not materially affect our outstanding foreign exchange forward contracts.
Market Price Sensitive Instruments
In connection with the pricing of the 2024 Notes, we entered into privately-negotiated convertible note hedge transactions (the “Note Hedge Transactions”) with certain parties, including affiliates of the initial purchasers of the 2024 Notes (the “Option Counterparties”). These Note Hedge Transactions are expected to reduce the potential dilution upon any future conversion of the 2024 Notes.
We also entered into separate, privately-negotiated warrant transactions with the Option Counterparties to acquire up to 4.41 million shares of our common stock. The warrant transactions will have a dilutive effect with respect to our common stock to the extent that the price per share of our common stock exceeds the strike price of the warrants unless we elect, subject to certain conditions, to settle the warrants in cash. The strike price of the warrant transactions related to the 2024 Notes was initially $71.775 per share. Further information is located in Note 8, “Debt and Credit Arrangements” to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
Item 4.Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
We perform an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer, President and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Rule 13a-15 under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). Based upon that evaluation, such officers concluded that as of September 30, 2019,March 31, 2020, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act (1) is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms and (2) is accumulated and communicated to our management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow for timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

Item 1A.Risk Factors
The COVID-19 pandemic has disrupted our operations and could have a material adverse effect on our business.
Our business could be materially and adversely affected by the outbreak of a widespread health epidemic. The present coronavirus (or COVID-19) pandemic has disrupted our operations and could affect our business, as government authorities impose mandatory closures, work-from-home orders and social distancing protocols or impose other restrictions that could materially adversely affect our ability to adequately staff and maintain our operations. While our production is considered “essential” in all locations we operate in, we have experienced, and may experience in the future, temporary facility closures while awaiting appropriate government approvals in certain jurisdictions. The COVID-19 outbreak could also disrupt our supply chain and materially adversely impact our ability to secure supplies for our facilities, which could materially adversely affect our operations. There may also be long-term effects on our customers in and the economies of affected countries. If the economy or markets in which we operate remain weak or deteriorate further, our business, financial condition and results of operations may be materially and adversely impacted.
In addition to the other information set forth in this report, you should carefully consider the risk factors disclosed in Item 1A. “Risk Factors,” of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2018.2019.
