Chart Industries, Inc. Depositary Shares, each Representing a 1/20th Interest in a Share of 6.75% Series B Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock

Reiterate our 2025 outlook. We reiterate our prior 2025 outlook. Our 2025 sales are anticipated to be in the range of $4.65 billion to $4.85 billion, associated anticipated adjusted EBITDA between $1.175 billion and $1.225 billion and associated adjusted diluted EPS of $12.00 to $13.00 on share count of approximately 45.5 million. We anticipate our tax rate will be approximately 22%. Additionally, we reiterate that we anticipate ending 2025 with approximately $3 billion of net debt, based on full year 2025 FCF generation between $550 and $600 million.
Our strong December 31, 2024 backlog, including the Woodside Louisiana LNG phase one order that was received in December 2024 as well as a large $35 million mining order and a strong year-to-date start for space exploration orders, supports our full year 2025 guidance range, offsetting the potential negative foreign exchange impact, that if it holds as it is currently for the full year, would have approximately a 2% negative impact on sales. We anticipate the second half 2025 to sequentially increase when compared to the first half 2025 given the timing of the aforementioned orders. Our first quarter is anticipated to be the lowest quarter of the year, as is typical.

Insights From Analysts
Ryan Detrick, the chief market strategist at Carson Research highlighted that the first quarter of a post-election year tends to be &#8220;quite weak&#8221;. &#8220;This choppy start to 2025 isn&#8217;t abnormal. Don&#8217;t panic,&#8221; he added.

He also continued reiterating his February seasonality stance via his X posts. He highlighted that junk corporate bonds, also called high-yield bonds, were up the past five days as the S&amp;P 500 was down over 4%.
&#8220;If the end was near like they keep telling us this wouldn&#8217;t be the case. Remain calm, this is simply seasonal late February shenanigans,&#8221; he said.

Furthermore, he dismissed the validity of price-to-earnings ratio, saying that there was no &#8220;correlation between P/E multiples and what stocks will do a year later.&#8221;
George Smith, portfolio strategist at LPL Financial highlighted his take on investor sentiment by analyzing survey data from the American Association of Individual Investors and Bank of America Global Fund Manager Survey.
AAII&#8217;s latest sentiment survey reveals significantly bearish sentiment among individual investors for the fourth consecutive week, with the bull-bear spread at a 10-year high. This extreme bearishness, viewed through a contrarian lens, could be a positive signal for stocks, said Smith.
However, the BofA Global Fund Manager Survey presents a more mixed picture, with professional investors cautiously optimistic about the economy but concerned about overvalued U.S. equities. Overall, these surveys suggest a relatively neutral market outlook, aligning with LPL Research&#8217;s neutral stance on equities due to a balance of positive and negative factors, explained Smith.

Earnings Scheduled For February 28, 2025

The CNN Money Fear and Greed index showed further decline in the overall market sentiment, while the index remained in the &#8220;Extreme Fear&#8221; zone on Thursday.
U.S. stocks settled lower on Thursday, with the Nasdaq Composite dipping more than 500 points during the session.
Nvidia Corp. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>) shares plunged more than 8% on Thursday after the company released fourth-quarter results.
On the economic data front, the second estimate released Thursday by the U.S. Bureau of Economic Analysis revised fourth quarter 2024 real GDP up by less than 0.1 percentage point, due mainly to higher-than-expected increases in government spending and exports.
Thursday&#8217;s data also showed initial jobless claims rose by 22,000 from the previous week to 242,000, the most in over two months and above market expectations of 221,000, indicating further softening of the job market.
Most sectors on the S&amp;P 500 closed on a negative note, with information technology, communication services and information technology stocks recording the biggest losses on Tuesday. However, financial and energy stocks bucked the overall market trend, closing the session higher.
The Dow Jones closed lower by around 194 points to 43,239.50 on Thursday. The S&amp;P 500 fell 1.59% to 5,861.57, while the Nasdaq Composite fell 2.78% at 18,544.42 during Thursday's session.
Investors are awaiting earnings results from Global Partners LP (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GLP#NYSE">GLP</a>), Owens &amp; Minor Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/OMI#NYSE">OMI</a>) and Chart Industries Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GTLS#NYSE">GTLS</a>) today.
What is CNN Business Fear &amp; Greed Index?
At a current reading of 18.4, the index remained in the &#8220;Extreme Fear&#8221; zone on Thursday, versus a prior reading of 21.3.
The Fear &amp; Greed Index is a measure of the current market sentiment. It is based on the premise that higher fear exerts pressure on stock prices, while higher greed has the opposite effect. The index is calculated based on seven equal-weighted indicators. The index ranges from 0 to 100, where 0 represents maximum fear and 100 signals maximum greediness.

A Glimpse Into The Expert Outlook On Chart Industries Through 5 Analysts

<li>Partnership Will Pave the Way for a Cost-Effective Path to Decarbonization Using Natural Gas and Sequestration</li>
<li>Offers Scalable, Near-Zero Approach That Uses Existing Fuel Infrastructure to Meet Today's Urgent Energy Needs</li>
</ul>
Bloom Energy (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BE#NYSE">BE</a>), a global leader in fuel cell electricity generation, and Chart Industries, Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GTLS#NYSE">GTLS</a>) ("Chart"), a global leader in energy and industrial gas solutions, announced today a carbon capture partnership that will use natural gas and fuel cells to generate near zero-carbon, always-on power. In announcing this partnership, the companies aim to offer a solution to customers, like data centers and manufacturers, who are seeking power solutions that can be deployed rapidly without compromising reliability or emission goals.
This press release features multimedia. View the full release here: <a href="https://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20250213775837/en/">https://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20250213775837/en/</a>
As part of the partnership, Chart will use its carbon capture know how to process Bloom's high-purity carbon dioxide (CO2) exhaust stream into outputs that are ready for utilization or sequestration. The CO2 utilization market serves as an important near-term term bridge to carbon sequestration in locations, where sequestration infrastructure is not available or permitted. According to Morgan Stanley, more than 500 million tonnes per annum (MTPA) of carbon storage capacity is expected to come online within the next five years. As sequestration capabilities grow in the U.S. and globally, CO2 utilization provides an immediate pathway to repurpose captured carbon while supporting long-term decarbonization efforts.
Efficient carbon capture depends on the purity of CO₂ in the exhaust stream, which varies widely across power generation technologies. Conventional technologies that generate electricity from natural gas through combustion—such as gas turbines and reciprocating engines—produce exhaust streams with approximately 5% CO₂. Capturing such low-concentration emissions remains technically complex and costly. In contrast, Bloom's proprietary high-temperature fuel cell technology converts natural gas without combustion, yielding a CO₂-rich stream that has 15 times lower mass flow and ten times the CO2 concentration, making the capture process more efficient and less costly.

<h3>Chart Industries P/E Compared to Competitors</h3>
The P/E ratio measures the current share price to the company's EPS. It is used by long-term investors to analyze the company's current performance against it's past earnings, historical data and aggregate market data for the industry or the indices, such as S&amp;P 500. A higher P/E indicates that investors expect the company to perform better in the future, and the stock is probably overvalued, but not necessarily. It also could indicate that investors are willing to pay a higher share price currently, because they expect the company to perform better in the upcoming quarters. This leads investors to also remain optimistic about rising dividends in the future. 
Compared to the aggregate P/E ratio of 28.65 in the Machinery industry, Chart Industries Inc. has a higher P/E ratio of 61.37. Shareholders might be inclined to think that Chart Industries Inc. might perform better than its industry group. It's also possible that the stock is overvalued. 

<img src="https://www.benzinga.com/files/images/story/2025/1737740757_1.png" alt="Guage" />

In conclusion, the price-to-earnings ratio is a useful metric for analyzing a company's market performance, but it has its limitations. While a lower P/E can indicate that a company is undervalued, it can also suggest that shareholders do not expect future growth. Additionally, the P/E ratio should not be used in isolation, as other factors such as industry trends and business cycles can also impact a company's stock price. Therefore, investors should use the P/E ratio in conjunction with other financial metrics and qualitative analysis to make informed investment decisions.
