Item 2.02 Results of Operations and Financial Condition.

On October 27, 2011, Chart Industries, Inc. (the “Company”) issued a news release announcing the Company’s financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2011. A copy of the news release is furnished with this Current Report on Form 8-K as Exhibit 99.1. All information in the news release is furnished and shall not be deemed “filed” with the Securities and Exchange Commission for purposes of Section 18 of the Exchange Act, or otherwise be subject to the liability of that Section, and shall not be deemed to be incorporated by reference into any filing under the Securities Act or the Exchange Act, except to the extent the Company specifically incorporated it by reference.

The news release furnished with this Current Report on Form 8-K as Exhibit 99.1 includes an adjusted earnings per share amount for the third quarter of 2011 that excludes restructuring costs related to recent acquisitions. Also included for purposes of period-to-period comparison is an adjusted earnings per share amount for the third quarter of 2010 which excludes certain restructuring costs that were recognized in that quarter. These adjusted earnings per share measures are not recognized under generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) and are referred to as “non-GAAP financial measures” in Regulation G under the Securities Act. The Company believes these adjusted earnings per share amounts are of interest to investors and facilitate useful period-to-period comparisons of the Company’s financial results, and this information is used by the Company in evaluating internal performance. The adjusted earnings per share amounts are reconciled to earnings per share in a schedule at the end of the news release.
