CHART INDUSTRIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements – June 30, 2011

(Dollars and shares in thousands, except per share amounts)

NOTE A — Basis of Preparation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of Chart Industries, Inc. and its subsidiaries (the “Company” or “Chart”) have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles 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 the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010. 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 six months ended June 30, 2011 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2011.

Principles of Consolidation: The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries. Intercompany accounts and transactions are eliminated in consolidation. Investments in affiliates where the Company’s ownership is between 20 percent and 50 percent, or where the Company does not have control, but has the ability to exercise significant influence over operations or financial policy, are accounted for under the equity method.

Use of Estimates: The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Nature of Operations: The Company is a leading global supplier of standard and custom-engineered products and systems serving a wide variety of low-temperature and cryogenic applications. The Company has developed an expertise in cryogenic systems and equipment, which operate at low temperatures sometimes approaching absolute zero. The majority of the Company’s products, including vacuum insulated containment vessels, heat exchangers, cold boxes and other cryogenic components, are used throughout the liquid-gas supply chain for the purification, liquefaction, distribution, storage and end-use of industrial gases and hydrocarbons. The Company has domestic operations located throughout the United States, including principal executive offices located in Ohio, and an international presence in Asia, Australia and Europe.

Cost of Sales: Any expenses associated with manufacturing are included in cost of sales. These costs include all materials, direct and indirect labor, inbound freight, purchasing and receiving, inspection, internal transfers and distribution and warehousing of inventory. In addition, shop supplies, facility maintenance costs, manufacturing engineering, project management and depreciation expense for assets used in the manufacturing process are included in cost of sales.

Selling, general and administrative costs (“SG&A”): SG&A includes selling, marketing, customer service, product management, design engineering, and other administrative costs not directly supporting the manufacturing process as well as depreciation expense associated with non-manufacturing assets. In addition, SG&A includes corporate operating expenses for executive management, accounting, tax, treasury, human resources, information technology, legal, internal audit, risk management and stock-based compensation expense.

Cash and Cash Equivalents: The Company considers all investments with an initial maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents. The June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010 balances include money market investments.

Short-Term Investments: From time to time, the Company invests in short-term, highly liquid, variable rate instruments, which have stated maturities of greater than three months but less than six months. These short term investments are recorded at cost which approximates fair value. The Company has determined that its investment securities are available and intended for use in current operations and, accordingly, classifies investment securities as current assets. There are no short term investments at June 30, 2011 or December 31, 2010.

NOTE A — Basis of Preparation – Continued

 

Inventories: Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market with cost being determined by the first-in, first-out (“FIFO”) method. The components of inventory are as follows:

 

     June 30,
2011
     December 31,
2010
 

Raw materials and supplies

   $ 42,795       $ 35,565   

Work in process

     29,654         23,643   

Finished goods

     50,789         45,227   
                 
   $ 123,238       $ 104,435   
                 

Revenue Recognition: For the majority of the Company’s products, revenue is recognized when products are shipped, title has transferred and collection is reasonably assured. For these products, there is also persuasive evidence of an arrangement, and the selling price to the buyer is fixed or determinable. For brazed aluminum heat exchangers, cold boxes, vacuum-insulated pipe, liquefied natural gas fueling stations and engineered tanks, the Company uses the percentage of completion method of accounting. Earned revenue is based on the percentage that incurred costs to date bear to total estimated costs at completion after giving effect to the most current estimates. The cumulative impact of revisions in total cost estimates during the progress of work is reflected in the period in which these changes become known. Earned revenue reflects the original contract price adjusted for agreed upon claims and change orders, if any. Losses expected to be incurred on contracts in process, after consideration of estimated minimum recoveries from claims and change orders are charged to operations as soon as such losses are known. Pre-contract costs relate primarily to salaries and benefits incurred to support the selling effort and, accordingly, are expensed as incurred. Change orders resulting in additional revenue and profit are recognized upon approval by the customer based on the percentage that incurred costs to date bear to total estimated costs at completion. Certain contracts include incentive-fee arrangements clearly defined in the agreement and are recognized as revenue when the criteria have been met. The incentive fees in such contracts can be based on a variety of factors but the most common are the achievement of target completion dates, target costs, and/or other performance criteria. Incentive fee revenue is not recognized until it is earned. Timing of amounts billed on contracts varies from contract to contract and could cause a significant variation in working capital requirements.

Product Warranties: The Company provides product warranties with varying terms and durations for the majority of its products. The Company records warranty expense in cost of sales. The changes in the Company’s consolidated warranty reserve during the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010 are as follows:

   $ 12,849      $ 9,308      $ 12,849      $ 9,308   
                                

Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets: The Company does not amortize goodwill or other indefinite lived intangible assets, but reviews them at least annually, and on an interim basis if necessary, for impairment using a measurement date of October 1st. The Company amortizes intangible assets that have finite lives over their useful lives.

The Company determines the fair value of any indefinite-lived intangible assets using a discounted cash flow method, compares the fair value to its carrying value and records an impairment loss if the carrying value exceeds its fair value. Goodwill is tested utilizing a two-step approach. After recording any impairment losses for indefinite-lived intangible assets, the Company determines the fair value of each reporting unit and compares the fair value to its carrying value, including goodwill, of such reporting unit (step one). To test for impairment, the Company is required to estimate the fair value of each reporting unit. The reporting units are also the reportable segments: Energy & Chemicals, Distribution & Storage, and BioMedical. Consistent with prior years, the Company uses the income and market approaches to develop fair value estimates, which are weighted equally to arrive at a fair value estimate for each reporting unit. With respect to the income approach, a model has been developed to estimate the fair value of each reporting unit. This fair value model incorporates estimates of future cash flows, estimates of allocations of certain assets and cash flows among reporting units, estimates of future growth rates and management’s judgment regarding the applicable discount rates to use to discount those estimated cash flows. With respect to the market approach, a guideline company method is used selecting companies with similar assets or businesses to estimate fair value of each reporting unit. Changes to these

judgments and estimates could result in a significantly different estimate of the fair value of the reporting units, which could result in a different assessment of the recoverability of goodwill and other indefinite-lived intangible assets. If the fair value exceeds the carrying value, no impairment loss would be recognized. If the carrying value of the reporting unit exceeds its fair value, the goodwill of the reporting unit may be impaired. The amount of the impairment, if any, would then be measured in step two, which compares the implied fair value of the reporting unit’s goodwill with the carrying amount of that goodwill. As of October 1, 2010, the estimated fair values substantially exceeded the carrying value for all reporting units.

The following table displays the gross carrying amount and accumulated amortization for all intangible assets.

Amortization expense for finite-lived intangible assets was $3,288 and $2,783 for the three months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively, and $6,605 and $5,499 for the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively, and is estimated to be approximately $13,000 for 2011 and an average of $11,000 for years 2012 through 2016.

Stock-based Compensation: The Company records stock-based compensation according to current accounting guidance which requires all share-based payments to employees and directors, including grants of employee stock options, to be measured at fair value on the date of grant.

During the six months ended June 30, 2011, the Company granted 146 stock options, 57 restricted stock and restricted stock unit awards, and 57 performance stock units. The stock options vest over a four year period. Restricted stock and stock unit awards vest over a three year period and performance stock units are earned over a three year measurement period.

Stock-based compensation expense was $1,400 and $1,361 for the three months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively, and $2,801 and $2,261 for the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively. As of June 30, 2011, the total stock-based compensation expected to be recognized over the weighted average period of approximately 2.1 years is $5,889.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements: In October 2009, the FASB issued ASU 2009-13, “Revenue Recognition (Topic 605) — Multiple-Deliverable Revenue Arrangements”. This ASU eliminates the requirement that all undelivered elements must have objective and reliable evidence of fair value before a company can recognize the portion of the consideration that is attributable to items that already have been delivered. This may allow some companies to recognize revenue on transactions that involve multiple deliverables earlier than under the current requirements. Additionally, under the new guidance, the relative selling price method is required to be used in allocating consideration between deliverables and the residual value method will no longer be permitted. This ASU is effective prospectively for revenue arrangements entered into or materially modified beginning in fiscal 2011 although early adoption is permitted. A company may elect, but will not be required, to adopt the amendments in this ASU retrospectively for all prior periods. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material effect on the financial statements of the Company.

NOTE A — Basis of Preparation – Continued

 

In December 2010, the FASB issued ASU 2010-28, “Intangibles — Goodwill and Other (Topic 350).” This ASU modifies the first step of the goodwill impairment test to include reporting units with zero or negative carrying amounts. For these reporting units, the second step of the goodwill impairment test shall be performed to measure the amount of impairment loss, if any, when it is more likely than not that a goodwill impairment exists. This ASU is effective for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2010. The Company has evaluated the ASU and does not believe it will have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.

NOTE B – Fair Value Measurements

The Company measures financial assets and liabilities at fair value in three levels of input. The three-tier fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in the valuation methodologies, is:

Level 1 — Valuations based on quoted prices for identical assets and liabilities in active markets.

Level 2 — Valuations based on observable inputs 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.

Level 3 — Valuations based on unobservable inputs reflecting our own assumptions, consistent with reasonably available assumptions made by other market participants. These valuations require significant judgment.

The Company is exposed to foreign currency exchange risk as a result of transactions in currencies other than the functional currency of certain subsidiaries. The Company utilizes foreign currency forward purchase and sale contracts to manage the volatility associated with foreign currency purchases and certain intercompany transactions in the normal course of business. Contracts typically have maturities of less than one year. Principal currencies include the euro, British pound, Japanese yen, and Czech koruna. The Company’s foreign currency forward contracts do not qualify as hedges as defined by accounting guidance. Changes in their fair value are recorded in the consolidated statements of operations as foreign currency gains or losses. The changes in fair value generated a net loss of $104 and a net gain of $564 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, respectively, and net losses of $666 and $703 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010, respectively.

At June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, the fair value of the Company’s derivative liabilities representing foreign currency forward contracts was $239 and $807, respectively. These amounts were recorded on the balance sheet as other current liabilities. As of June 30, 2011, the Company held forward currency contracts to sell (i) 4,700 Czech koruna against the U.S. dollar, (ii) 8,000 euros against the U.S. dollar, (iii) 368,237 Japanese yen against the U.S. dollar, (iv) 600 Australian dollars against the U.S. dollar, (v) 300 British pounds against the euro, (vi) 2,000 Norwegian kroner against the euro, (vii) 850 U.S. dollars against the Czech koruna, and (viii) 1,300 euros against the Czech koruna. As of December 31, 2010, the Company held forward currency contracts to sell (i) 16,900 euros against the Czech koruna, (ii) 386,853 Japanese yen against the U.S. dollar, (iii) 5,000 U.S. dollars against the euro, (iv) 500 Australian dollars against the U.S. dollar, and (v) 75 British pounds against the euro. The Company’s foreign currency forward contracts are not exchange traded instruments and, accordingly, are classified as being valued using level 2 inputs which are based on observable inputs such as quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets.

The Company does not enter into derivative instruments for trading or speculative purposes.

The fair value of the Company’s Term Loan is estimated based on the present value of the underlying cash flows discounted at the Company’s estimated borrowing rate. Under this method, the fair value of the Company’s Term Loan approximated its carrying value at June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010. The fair value of the Subordinated Notes is estimated based on a third party’s bid price. The fair value approximated the carrying value of $163,175 at June 30, 2011 and at December 31, 2010.

NOTE C — Debt and Credit Arrangements

On May 18, 2010, the Company refinanced its prior senior secured credit facility with a five-year $200,000 senior credit facility (the “Senior Credit Facility”). As a result of the refinancing, the Company wrote off $1,706 of deferred financing fees related to the prior senior credit facility. The new Senior Credit Facility consists of a $65,000 term loan (the “Term Loan”), of which $58,500 remains outstanding and a $135,000 revolving credit facility (the “Revolver”) with a scheduled maturity date of May 18, 2015 (the “Maturity Date”). The Revolver includes a $25,000 sub-limit for the issuance of swingline loans and a $50,000 sub-limit to be used for letters of credit. There is a foreign currency limit of $40,000 under the Revolver which can be used for foreign currency denominated letters of credit and borrowings in a foreign currency, in each case in currencies agreed upon with the lenders. In addition, the facility permits borrowings up to $40,000 under the Revolver made by the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary, Chart Industries Luxembourg S.à r.l. The Company also has $163,175 of 9 1/8% senior subordinated notes (the “Subordinated Notes”) outstanding.

NOTE C — Debt and Credit Arrangements – Continued

 

On September 30, 2010, the Company began repaying the principal balance of the Term Loan with its first quarterly installment of $1,625 and will continue to make quarterly installments through the Maturity Date. The Company may select a Eurocurrency Borrowing or an ABR Borrowing rate. If the Company elects the Eurocurrency Borrowing, the base rate for the elected period equals the applicable Adjusted LIBOR rate plus the applicable margin (as defined in the Senior Credit Facility). If the Company elects an ABR Borrowing, the base rate for any day equals an applicable interest margin (as defined in the Senior Credit Facility) plus the greatest of the Prime Rate in effect on such day, the Federal Funds Effective Rate in effect on such day plus 0.5%, and the Adjusted LIBOR Rate for a one month interest period on such day plus 1.0%. The applicable interest margin on the Senior Credit Facility could change based upon the leverage ratio calculated at each fiscal quarter end. In addition, the Company is required to pay a commitment fee of between 0.3% and 0.5% of the unused Revolver balance and a letter of credit participation fee equal to the daily aggregate letter of credit exposure at the rate per annum equal to the Applicable Margin for Eurocurrency Revolving Facility Borrowings (ranging from 2% to 3.5%, depending on the leverage ratio calculated at each fiscal quarter end). 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. The obligations under the Senior Credit Facility are guaranteed by the Company and substantially all of its U.S. subsidiaries and secured by substantially all of the assets of the Company’s U.S. subsidiaries and 65% of the capital stock of the Company’s Material (as defined by the Senior Credit Facility) non-U.S. subsidiaries that are owned by U.S. subsidiaries.

The Subordinated Notes are due in 2015 with interest payable semi-annually on April 15th and October 15th. Any of the Subordinated Notes may be redeemed solely at the Company’s option, except as restricted by the Senior Credit Facility. The initial redemption price is 104.563% of the principal amount, plus accrued interest. The Subordinated Notes are general unsecured obligations of the Company and are subordinated in right of payment to all existing and future senior debt of the Company, including the Senior Credit Facility, pari passu in right of payment with all future senior subordinated indebtedness of the Company, and senior in right of payment with any future indebtedness of the Company that expressly provides for its subordination to the Subordinated Notes. The Subordinated Notes are unconditionally guaranteed jointly and severally by substantially all of the Company’s U.S. subsidiaries.

The Senior Credit Facility agreement and provisions of the indenture governing the Subordinated Notes contain a number of customary covenants, including but not limited to restrictions on the Company’s ability to incur additional indebtedness, create liens or other encumbrances, sell assets, enter into sale and lease-back transactions, make certain payments, investments, loans, advances or guarantees, make acquisitions and engage in mergers or consolidations, pay dividends or distributions, and make capital expenditures. The Senior Credit Facility and indenture governing the Subordinated Notes also include financial covenants relating to net leverage and interest coverage ratios. The Company is in compliance with all covenants. As of June 30, 2011, there was $58,500 outstanding under the Term Loan and $163,175 outstanding under the Subordinated Notes and $25,571 in letters of credit issued but no borrowings outstanding under the Revolver.

Chart Ferox, a.s. (“Ferox”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, maintains secured credit facilities with capacity of up to 175,000 Czech koruna (“CZK”). Ferox maintains two separate facilities. Both of the facilities allow Ferox to request issuance of bank guarantees and letters of credit. None of the facilities allow revolving credit borrowings, including overdraft protection. Ferox is required to pay a commitment fee to the lender under its first facility in respect to the unutilized commitments thereunder. Under this first facility Ferox must pay letter of credit and guarantee fees equal to: (i) 0.70% p.a. on the face amount of each guarantee or letter of credit for maturities of up to 1 year, (ii) 0.80% p.a. for maturities between 1 and 3 years, (iii) 1.20% p.a for maturities between 3 and 5 years. Under the second facility Ferox must pay letter of credit and guarantee fees equal to 0.70% p.a. on the face amount of each guarantee or letter of credit. Ferox is not required to pay a commitment fee to the lender under the second facility. Ferox’s land, buildings and accounts receivable secure the credit facilities. As of June 30, 2011 there were $8,374 of bank guarantees supported by the Ferox credit facilities.

Flow Instruments & Engineering GmbH (“Flow”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Ferox, maintains two revolving lines of credit with 320 euros in borrowing capacity. As of June 30, 2011, there were no borrowings outstanding under either line of credit.

NOTE D – Restructuring Activities

In April 2010, Caire Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, announced its plan to close its liquid oxygen therapy manufacturing facility in Plainfield, Indiana and relocate the manufacturing and customer service operations to a facility close to existing BioMedical operations in Canton, Georgia. The Plainfield facility was acquired as part of the 2009 acquisition of the liquid oxygen therapy business of Covidien plc. The closure was substantially completed in the second quarter of 2011. The total anticipated cost of the restructuring is approximately $7,000 which includes asset impairment charges. The cost includes cash expenditures for employee retention and separation benefits, as well as lease exit costs and loss on disposal of remaining assetes. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, the Company recorded $2,280 and $2,479, respectively, related to the closure of the Plainfield, Indiana BioMedical facility and also recorded $78 and $981, respectively, in restructuring costs for employee separation benefits related to the integration of SeQual Technologies Inc., which was acquired on December 28, 2010. These charges were recorded in cost of sales ($953 and $965 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, respectively), selling, general and administrative expenses ($652 and $1,742 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, respectively), and loss on disposal of assets ($1,216 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, respectively).

NOTE G — Acquisitions

On April 1, 2011, Chart Inc. completed the acquisition of 100% of the equity of Clever Fellows Innovation Consortium, Inc. (“CFIC”) for a total potential purchase price of $5,000 in cash, of which $2,000 has been paid. The remaining portion of the potential total purchase price represents contingent consideration to be paid over three years based on the attainment of certain revenue targets. The estimated value of the contingent consideration at acquisition was $1,650, valued according to a discounted cash flow approach, which includes assumptions for the probabilities of achieving the gross sales targets and the discount rate applied to the projected payments. The valuation of contingent consideration is classified as utilizing Level 3 inputs consistent with reasonably available assumptions which would be made by other market participants. The fair value of the assets acquired and goodwill at the date of acquisition were $829 and $2,821, respectively. The purchase price allocation related to the CFIC acquisition is substantially complete with the exception of intangible assets and contingent consideration, which continue to be based on provisional fair values and are subject to revision as the Company finalizes appraisals and other analyses. CFIC is located in Troy, New York and develops and manufactures thermoacoustic technology products for cryogenic, heat transfer and related applications. CFIC’s results are included in the Company’s BioMedical segment.

In December 2010, Caire Inc. (“Caire”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, completed the acquisition of SeQual Technologies Inc. (“SeQual”) for a potential total purchase price of $60,000 in cash, of which $38,312 was paid after working capital adjustments. The cash purchase price is subject to post closing adjustments. The majority of the remaining potential total purchase price represents contingent consideration to be paid over two years beginning in 2012 based on the achievement of certain gross profit targets. The estimated value of the contingent consideration at June 30, 2011 was $5,287, valued according to a discounted cash flow approach, which includes assumptions for the probabilities of achieving the gross profit targets and the discount rate applied to the projected payments. The increase in fair value of the contingent consideration for the six months ended June 30, 2011 of $187 was recorded in the consolidated statement of operations. The valuation of contingent consideration is classified as utilizing Level 3 inputs consistent with reasonably available assumptions which would be made by other market participants. SeQual is located in San Diego, California and develops, manufactures and markets products for numerous applications utilizing pressure swing adsorption technology for air separation with its primary focus on medical oxygen concentrators. SeQual’s results are included in the Company’s BioMedical segment and added $18,866 to net sales during the six months ended June 30, 2011.

The purchase price allocation related to the SeQual acquisition is substantially completed. Final determination of the fair value may result in further adjustments to the values presented below:

In August 2010, Chart Inc. acquired substantially all of the assets of Cryotech International, Inc. (“Cryotech”) for a potential total purchase price of $6,653 in cash, of which $4,053 was paid at closing. The remaining portion of the potential total purchase price represents contingent consideration to be paid over two years based on the achievement of certain revenue targets. The estimated fair value of the contingent consideration at June 30, 2011 was $1,568. The value of the contingent consideration was valued according to a discounted cash flow approach, which includes assumptions for the probabilities of achieving the revenue targets and the discount rate applied to the projected payments. The decrease in fair value of the contingent consideration for the six months ended June 30, 2011 of $232 was recorded in the consolidated statement of operations. The fair value of the assets acquired and goodwill at the date of acquisition were $1,626 and $4,227, respectively. Cryotech is located in San Jose, California and designs, manufactures, sells, and services cryogenic injectors, vacuum insulated piping systems, and manifolds, and also repairs liquid cylinders. Cryotech’s results are included in the Company’s Distribution & Storage segment and added $7,217 to net sales during the six months ended June 30, 2011.

In April 2010, Chart Japan Co., Ltd. completed the acquisition of Covidien Japan Inc.’s liquid oxygen therapy business for $1,008 in cash. The fair value of the assets acquired at closing was $2,132 which exceeded the cash paid and, accordingly,

NOTE G — Acquisitions – Continued

 

resulted in a gain on acquisition of business of $1,124 during the second quarter of 2010. Purchase accounting for this acquisition has been finalized. Available public information indicated that Covidien sought to streamline its business portfolio in an expeditious manner and reallocate resources to other businesses, therefore, the liquid oxygen therapy business was considered a non-core asset. Net sales of $2,487 were added to the Company’s BioMedical segment during the six months ended June 30, 2011 as a result of the acquisition.

Pro-forma information related to these acquisitions has not been presented because the impact on the Company’s consolidated results of operations is not material.

NOTE H — Income Taxes

At June 30, 2011, the Company has recorded a $2,468 liability, in accordance with ASC 740-10-25 “Income Taxes,” for gross unrecognized tax benefits. This amount, if ultimately recognized, will reduce the Company’s annual effective tax rate. The Company recognizes interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions in income tax expense. At June 30, 2011, the Company had accrued approximately $53 for the payment of interest and penalties. There were no material adjustments to the recorded liability for unrecognized tax benefits during the second quarter of 2011.

The effective tax rate for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 differs from the U.S. federal statutory rate of 35% primarily due to the effect of income earned by certain of the Company’s foreign entities being taxed at lower rates than the federal statutory rate. The effective tax rate for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010 differs from the federal statutory rate primarily due to the effect of income earned by certain of the Company’s foreign entities being taxed at lower rates than the federal statutory rate and permanent tax deductions.

NOTE I — Employee Benefit Plans

The Company has one frozen defined benefit pension plan that covers certain U.S. hourly and salaried employees. The defined benefit plan provides benefits based primarily on the participants’ years of service and compensation.

The following table sets forth the components of net periodic pension expense (benefit) for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010.

NOTE J — Reporting Segments

The structure of the Company’s internal organization is divided into the following three reportable segments: Energy and Chemicals (“E&C”), Distribution and Storage (“D&S”) and BioMedical. The Company’s reportable segments are business units that are each managed separately because they manufacture, offer and distribute distinct products with different production processes and sales and marketing approaches. The E&C segment sells brazed aluminum and air-cooled heat exchangers, cold boxes and liquefied natural gas vacuum-insulated pipe to natural gas, petrochemical processing and industrial gas companies who use them for the liquefaction and separation of natural and industrial gases. The D&S segment sells cryogenic bulk storage systems, cryogenic packaged gas systems, cryogenic systems and components, beverage liquid CO2 systems, cryogenic flow meter systems and cryogenic services to various companies for the storage and transportation of both industrial and natural gases. The BioMedical segment sells medical respiratory products, biological storage systems and other oxygen products. Due to the nature of the products that each segment sells, there are no intersegment sales. Corporate includes operating expenses for executive management, accounting, tax, treasury, human resources, information technology, legal, internal audit, risk management and stock-based compensation expenses that are not allocated to the reporting segments.

The Company evaluates performance and allocates resources based on operating income or loss from continuing operations before net interest expense, financing costs amortization expense, gain on acquisition of business, foreign currency gain or loss, income taxes and noncontrolling interest. The accounting policies of the reportable segments are described in the summary of significant accounting policies.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

Overview

Chart Industries, Inc. (the “Company,” “Chart,” or “we”) is a leading independent global manufacturer of highly engineered equipment used in the production, storage and end-use of hydrocarbon and industrial gases. The largest portion of end-use applications for our products is energy-related. We are a leading manufacturer of standard and engineered equipment primarily used for low-temperature and cryogenic applications. We have developed an expertise in cryogenic systems and equipment, which operate at low temperatures sometimes approaching absolute zero (0 kelvin; -273° Centigrade; -459° Fahrenheit). The majority of our products, including vacuum insulated containment vessels, heat exchangers, cold boxes and other cryogenic components, are used throughout the liquid gas supply chain for the purification, liquefaction, distribution, storage and end-use of hydrocarbon and industrial gases.

For the six months ended June 30, 2011, orders were $576.9 million and backlog has increased to $454.0 million compared to $236.4 million at December 31, 2010. We continued to experience significant improvement in our sales, gross profit and operating income during the six months ended June 30, 2011. This improvement was largely due to an increase in orders across all business segments, particularly natural gas related opportunities as well as from the acquisitions of Cryotech International (“Cryotech”) and SeQual Technologies Inc. (“SeQual”). We continue to see increasing orders in our E&C segment including several recently booked large Natural Gas Liquids (“NGL”) and LNG related projects. Sales for the six months ended June 30, 2011 were $363.6 million compared to sales of $257.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2010, reflecting an increase of $106.2 million, or 41.3%. Acquisitions added $26.1 million in sales for the six months ended June 30, 2011. Our gross profit for the six months ended June 30, 2011 was $114.8 million, or 31.6% of sales, as compared to $71.9 million, or 27.9% of sales, for the same period in 2010. In addition, our operating income for the six months ended June 30, 2011 was $35.8 million compared to $16.2 million for the same period in 2010.

Sales

Sales for the three months ended June 30, 2011 were $200.7 million compared to $139.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2010, reflecting an increase of $61.6 million, or 44.2%. The primary drivers of the increase in sales are recently completed acquisitions and energy related opportunities, particularly natural gas. E&C segment sales were $49.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011 compared with sales of $31.4 million for three months ended June 30, 2010, which reflected an increase of $17.7 million or 56.4%. This increase in E&C sales for the three months ended June 30, 2011 was primarily due to improved volume and pricing in brazed aluminum heat exchangers and process systems. D&S segment sales increased $33.6 million, or 49.3%, to $101.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011 from $68.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2010. The increase in sales was largely due to improved volume across all product lines, particularly mobile equipment and package gas. Sales for bulk storage systems and package gas systems increased $17.0 million and $16.6 million, respectively. In addition, Cryotech, which was acquired in August 2010, contributed $3.6 million during the quarter, which is included in the bulk storage systems sales increase noted above. In addition, D&S segment sales were positively affected in the second quarter of 2011 by the strengthening of the euro and the Czech koruna against the U.S. dollar as compared to exchange rates experienced during the same period in 2010. BioMedical segment sales for the three months ended June 30, 2011 were $49.9 million compared to $39.6 million for the same period in 2010, which reflected an increase of $10.3 million, or 25.9%. The increase was primarily driven by the acquisition of SeQual in December 2010. This acquisition contributed $10.3 million to the increase in medical respiratory sales. Biological storage system sales experienced increased demand domestically which was offset by lower sales in Europe and Asia.

 

24


Gross Profit and Margin

Gross profit for the three months ended June 30, 2011 was $62.3 million, or 31.1% of sales, versus $37.6 million, or 27.0% of sales, for the three months ended June 30, 2010 and reflected an increase of $24.7 million. E&C segment gross profit increased $9.1 million and its margin increased 12.7 percentage points due to increased volume, higher margin projects and improved pricing. Gross profit for the D&S segment increased $10.0 million, as margin improved slightly for the three months ended June 30, 2011, largely due to higher volume partially offset by increased material costs. The BioMedical gross profit increased $5.6 million as margin increased 4.0 percentage points for the three months ended June 30, 2011 as compared to the same period in 2010. The increase is primarily the result of higher volume, favorable product mix and lower restructuring costs related to the closure of the Plainfield, Indiana manufacturing facility.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses (“SG&A”)

SG&A expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2011 were $36.3 million, or 18.1% of sales, compared to $25.5 million, or 18.3% of sales, for the three months ended June 30, 2010. SG&A expenses for the E&C segment were $7.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011 compared to $5.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2010, an increase of $2.6 million. The increase was primarily attributable to increased sales commission costs related to higher sales volumes. D&S segment SG&A expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2011 were $10.4 million compared to $7.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2010, an increase of $3.2 million. This increase was primarily attributable to the acquisition of Cryotech during 2010 and higher marketing and sales commission expense due to increased sales volume as well as targeting new growth opportunities. SG&A expenses for the BioMedical segment were $9.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011 and $6.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2010. The increase of $3.8 million was primarily attributable to the SeQual and Covidien acquisitions. Corporate SG&A expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2011 were $8.4 million compared to $7.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2010. This increase of $1.2 million was attributable to higher stock-based compensation expense and employee related costs.

Loss on Disposal of Assets/Asset impairment charge

A loss on disposal of assets of $1.2 million was recorded for the three months ended June 30, 2011 as a result of the disposal of the remaining assets at the BioMedical Plainfield, Indiana facility as part of the final closure of the facility in May 2011. Production was transferred to the new Canton, Georgia BioMedical facility during the quarter.

An asset impairment charge of $0.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2010 was the result of certain equipment at the Plainfield, Indiana facility being written down to its net realizable value as part of the closure of the facility.

Amortization Expense

Amortization expense for the three months ended June 30, 2011 was $3.3 million, or 1.6% of sales, compared to $2.8 million, or 2.0% of sales for the three months ended June 30, 2010. The increase of $0.5 million results from amortization of intangible assets from the acquisition of SeQual.

Operating Income

As a result of the foregoing, operating income for the three months ended June 30, 2011 was $21.5 million, or 10.7% of sales, an increase of $12.9 million compared to operating income of $8.6 million, or 6.2% of sales, for the same period in 2010.

Net Interest Expense and Amortization of Deferred Financing Costs

Net interest expense for the three months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010 was $4.1 million and $4.2 million, respectively. The decrease in interest expense of $0.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011 compared to the same period in 2010 was primarily attributable to a lower average debt outstanding on the term loan partially offset by slightly higher variable interest rates. Amortization of deferred financing costs was $0.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011 and $2.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2010. The decrease of $1.7 million was due to the $1.7 million write off of the remaining deferred financing costs related to the previous senior credit facility, which was refinanced in May 2010.

Gain on Acquisition of a Business

For the three months ended June 30, 2010, the Company recognized a $1.1 million gain as a result of the acquisition of Covidien’s Japanese oxygen therapy business in April 2010. The purchase price was allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on estimates of fair value at the date of acquisition. The estimates of fair value exceeded the cash paid and, accordingly, resulted in a gain on acquisition of business.

 

25


Other Expense and Income

For the three months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, foreign currency losses were $0.6 million and $0.3 million, respectively.

Income Tax Expense

Income tax expense of $5.5 million and $0.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively, represents taxes on both U.S. and foreign earnings at an effective income tax rate of 33.2% and 25.0%, respectively. The prior year quarter included a permanent tax difference on the bargain purchase gain on the Japanese assets associated with the Covidien Acquisition reducing the effective tax rate. Additionally, during the three months ended June 30, 2011 domestic earnings, which are taxed at a higher rate, increased compared to foreign earnings.

Net Income

As a result of the foregoing, reported net income for the three months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010 was $10.6 million and $2.4 million, respectively.

Results of Operations for the Six Months Ended June 30, 2011 and 2010

Sales

Sales for the six months ended June 30, 2011 were $363.6 million compared to $257.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2010, reflecting an increase of $106.2 million, or 41.3%. E&C segment sales were $91.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011 compared with sales of $57.6 million for the same period in 2010, which represented an increase of $34.0 million, or 59.0%. The improvement was primarily attributable to increased volume in all businesses including brazed aluminum and air cooled heat exchangers as well as process systems. D&S segment sales increased $48.0 million, or 37.8%, to $175.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011 from $127.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2010. Bulk storage system sales and package gas system sales increased $27.6 million and $20.4 million, respectively, for the six months ended June 30, 2011 compared to the same period in 2010. Cryotech, which was acquired in August 2010, added $7.2 million to the increase in bulk storage system sales. In addition, D&S segment sales were positively impacted during the six months ended June 30, 2011 as a result of the strengthening of the euro and the Czech koruna against the U.S. dollar. BioMedical segment sales increased $24.2 million, or 33.3%, to $96.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011 compared to $72.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2010. The increase was primarily driven by the acquisition of SeQual in December 2010, which added $18.9 million of medical respiratory sales during the six months ended June 30, 2011. Biological storage systems sales also increased $4.7 million during the six months ended June 30, 2011 as a result of increased demand in the U.S. and Asia.

Gross Profit and Margin

Gross profit for the six months ended June 30, 2011 was $114.8 million, or 31.6% of sales, versus $71.9 million, or 27.9% of sales, for the six months ended June 30, 2010 resulting in a $42.9 million increase. E&C segment gross profit increased $15.2 million, or 9.5 percentage points in the 2011 period compared to the 2010 period, primarily due to increased volume and higher margins in both brazed aluminum heat exchangers and process systems. Gross profit for the D&S segment increased $14.5 million as margin improved slightly for the six months ended June 30, 2011 compared to the same period in 2010 primarily due to higher volume and improved capacity utilization, partially offset by increased material costs. BioMedical gross profit increased $13.3 million, as margin increased 5.1 percentage points, for the six months ended June 30, 2011 compared to the same period in 2010. BioMedical gross profit margin increased in 2011 primarily due to higher volume and lower restructuring costs related to the planned closure of the Plainfield, Indiana facility for the six months ended June 30, 2011 as compared to the same period in 2010. A decrease in non-cash charges of $1.0 million related to the write up of acquired inventory to fair value from the acquisition of SeQual that was sold during the six months ended June 30, 2011 as compared to the non-cash inventory charges related to the Covidien Acquisition during the six months ended June 30, 2010 also contributed to the gross profit margin increase.

SG&A

SG&A expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2011 were $71.2 million, or 19.6% of sales, versus $49.5 million, or 19.2% of sales, for the six months ended June 30, 2010. SG&A expenses for the E&C segment were $14.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011 compared to $10.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2010, an increase of $4.7 million. The increase for the E&C segment was primarily the result of higher variable incentive compensation expenses and sales commissions due to increased volume during 2011 as compared to the same period in 2010. D&S segment SG&A expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2011 were $19.3 million compared to $14.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2010, an increase of $4.9 million. This increase was primarily attributable to the acquisition of Cryotech in August 2010 and increased employee related costs and sales and marketing costs as sales continue to improve. SG&A expenses for the BioMedical segment were $19.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011, an increase of $8.1 million compared to the six months ended June 30, 2010. The increase was largely due to compensation, integration and restructuring costs as a result of the

 

26


acquisition of SeQual in December 2010 and Clever Fellows Innovation Consortium, Inc. in April 2011. Corporate SG&A expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2011 were $17.9 million compared to $13.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2010. This increase of $4.0 million was attributable to higher stock-based compensation and employee related costs.

Amortization Expense

Amortization expense for the six months ended June 30, 2011 was $6.6 million, or 1.8% of sales, compared to $5.5 million, or 2.1% of sales, for the six months ended June 30, 2010. The increase of $1.1 million results from amortization of intangible assets from the acquisition of SeQual.

Loss on Disposal of Assets/Asset impairment charge

A loss on disposal of assets of $1.2 million was recorded for the six months ended June 30, 2011 as a result of the disposal of the remaining assets at the BioMedical Plainfield, Indiana facility as part of the final closure of the facility in May 2011.

An asset impairment charge of $0.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2010 was the result of certain equipment at the Plainfield, Indiana facility being written down to its net realizable value as part of the closure of the facility.

Operating Income

As a result of the foregoing, operating income for the six months ended June 30, 2011 was $35.8 million, or 9.8% of sales, an increase of $19.6 million compared to operating income of $16.2 million, or 6.3% of sales, for the same period in 2010.

Net Interest Expense and Amortization of Deferred Financing Costs

Net interest expense for the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010 was $8.0 million and $8.2 million, respectively. The decrease in interest expense of $0.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011 compared to the same period in 2010 was primarily attributable to a lower average debt outstanding on the term loan partially offset by slightly higher variable interest rates. Amortization of deferred financing costs was $0.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011 and $2.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2010. The decrease of $1.8 million was due to the $1.7 million write off of the remaining deferred financing costs related to the previous senior credit facility, which was refinanced in May 2010.

Gain on Acquisition of a Business

For the six months ended June 30, 2010, the Company recognized a $1.1 million gain as a result of the acquisition of Covidien’s Japanese oxygen therapy business in April 2010. The purchase price was allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on estimates of fair value at the date of acquisition. The estimates of fair value exceeded the cash paid and, accordingly, resulted in a gain on acquisition of business.

Other Expenses and Income

For the six months ended June 30, 2011, foreign currency gains were $0.1 million as compared to currency losses of $1.4 million for the same period in 2010. The currency gains are largely due to the strengthening of the euro against the U.S. dollar during the six months ended June 30, 2011 as compared to the same period in the prior year.

Income Tax Expense

Income tax expense of $8.9 million and $1.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively, represents taxes on both domestic and foreign earnings at an annual effective income tax rate of 32.5% and 26.2%, respectively. The prior year included a permanent tax difference on the bargain purchase gain on the Japanese assets associated with the Covidien Acquisition reducing the effective tax rate in 2010. Additionally, during the six months ended June 30, 2011 domestic earnings, which are taxed at a higher rate, increased compared to foreign earnings.

Net Income

As a result of the foregoing, net income for the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010 was $18.1 million and $3.8 million, respectively.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Debt Instruments and Related Covenants

On May 18, 2010, the Company completed the refinancing of its prior credit facility with a $200.0 million senior secured credit facility (“Senior Credit Facility”). The new Senior Credit Facility consists of a $65.0 million term loan and a $135.0 million revolving credit facility with a scheduled maturity date of May 18, 2015. Under the terms of the new facility, 10% of the $65.0 million term loan is payable in quarterly installments of $1.6 million with the balance due in 2015. The balance due on the term loan was $58.5 million at June 30, 2011.

As of June 30, 2011, the Company had $163.2 million outstanding under its senior subordinated notes (“Subordinated Notes”) and $25.6 million of letters of credit and bank guarantees supported by the revolving portion of the Senior Credit Facility. The Company is in compliance with all covenants, including its financial covenants, under the Senior Credit Facility and Subordinated Notes. Availability on the revolving portion of the Senior Credit Facility was $109.4 million at June 30, 2011.

Chart Ferox, a.s., or Ferox, our wholly-owned subsidiary that operates in the Czech Republic, maintains secured revolving credit facilities with capacity of up to 175.0 million Czech korunas (“CSK”). Both of the facilities allow Ferox to request issuance of bank guarantees and letters of credit. As of June 30, 2011, there were $8.4 million of bank guarantees supported by such facilities.

Sources and Use of Cash

Cash used by operations for the six months ended June 30, 2011 was $14.8 million compared with cash provided by operations of $14.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2010. Cash used in operations during 2011 as compared to cash provided by operations during the same period in 2010 was the result of an increase in funds used for working capital as accounts receivable and inventory increased in response to significantly improved business conditions and order trends.

Cash used in investing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2011 was $11.7 million compared to $13.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2010. Capital expenditures for the six months ended June 30, 2011 were $10.4 million compared with $7.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2010. During the six months ended June 30, 2011, $1.6 million of cash was used to acquire Clever Fellows Innovation Consortium, Inc. in April 2011. During the six months ended June 30, 2010, $1.0 million in cash was used to acquire the Japanese liquid oxygen therapy business of Covidien. In addition, the final purchase payments for Chengdu Golden Phoenix Liquid Nitrogen Container Company, Ltd. (“Golden Phoenix”) of $4.1 million were paid during the 2010 period.

Cash provided by financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2011 was $7.2 million. Quarterly principal payments totaling $3.3 million were made on the term loan portion of the Senior Credit Facility and $4.9 million in proceeds from stock option exercises were received during the six months ended June 30, 2011. Cash used by financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2010 was $17.5 million. The Company made a $15.0 million principal payment on the term loan portion of the credit facility as part of the refinancing.

Cash Requirements

The Company does not anticipate any unusual cash requirements for working capital needs, but expects to use $10 to $15 million of cash for capital expenditures for the remaining six months of 2011. Capital expenditures are expected to be used primarily for continued automation, process improvements and/or expansions at existing manufacturing facilities, including New Iberia, Louisiana and Changzhou, China to support recent strong order trends and continued business growth. In addition, we are anticipating an approximately $1.1 million contingency payment related to the earn-out on the acquisition of Cryotech.

During 2011, the Company will continue to consider making acquisitions or other investments as part of its strategic growth initiatives and expects to fund these acquisitions with primarily cash or stock. The Company expects to pay approximately 27.0 million EUR, subject to working capital adjustments, during the third quarter for the expected acquisition of GOFA Gocher Fahrzeugbau GmbH and related companies.

For the remaining six months of 2011, cash requirements for debt service are anticipated to be approximately $8.0 million for interest payments under the Subordinated Notes and the Senior Credit Facility. We are required to make quarterly principal payments of $1.6 million under the term loan portion of the Senior Credit Facility. We may also from time to time seek to purchase a portion of our Subordinated Notes outstanding through cash purchases on the open market, privately negotiated transactions or otherwise. Such purchases, if any, will depend on prevailing market conditions, our liquidity requirements and our debt covenants. For the remainder of 2011, we expect to use approximately $9.5 million of cash for both U.S. and foreign income taxes and to contribute approximately $0.7 million of cash to our defined benefit pension plan to meet ERISA minimum funding requirements. We believe that our cash flow from operations, available cash and available borrowings under our Senior Credit Facility should be adequate to meet our working capital, capital expenditure, debt service and other operational funding requirements for the remainder of 2011 and into 2012.

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 received from customers that the Company has not recognized as revenue under the percentage of completion method or based upon shipment. Backlog can be significantly affected by the timing of orders for large projects, particularly in the E&C segment, and it is not necessarily indicative of future backlog levels or the rate at which backlog will be recognized as sales. Orders included in our backlog may include customary cancellation provisions under which the customer could cancel part or all of the order at times subject to the payment of certain costs and/or penalties. Backlog as of June 30, 2011 was $454.0 million compared to $364.8 million as of March 31, 2011.

The following table sets forth orders and backlog by segment for the periods indicated:

E&C orders for the three months ended June 30, 2011 were $108.8 million compared to $145.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2011. E&C backlog totaled $278.5 million at June 30, 2011 compared to $218.6 million at March 31, 2011. The decrease of $36.4 million, or 25.1%, in orders is due to the receipt during the three months ended March 31, 2011 of a contract in excess of $90 million to provide the process design and proprietary equipment for a world scale Nitrogen Rejection facility with integrated NGL recovery to be constructed in the State of Qatar. The second quarter of 2011 included an order in excess of $40 million for an LNG project in Eastern Australia. Order flow in the E&C segment is historically volatile due to project size and it is not unusual to see order intake change significantly quarter to quarter.

D&S orders for the three months ended June 30, 2011 were a record $121.7 million compared to $94.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2011. D&S backlog totaled $154.0 million at June 30, 2011 compared to $132.5 million at March 31, 2011. Orders for both bulk systems and package gas systems increased during the three months ended June 30, 2011 versus the three months ended March 31, 2011 largely due to continued growth in LNG related opportunities.

BioMedical orders for the three months ended June 30, 2011 were $57.7 million compared to $49.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2011. BioMedical backlog at June 30, 2011 totaled $21.6 million compared to $13.7 million at March 31, 2011.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements as defined in the Securities Act.

Application of Critical Accounting Policies

The Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010. In particular, judgment is used in areas such as revenue recognition for long-term contracts, determining the allowance for doubtful accounts, inventory valuation reserves, goodwill, indefinite-lived intangibles, environmental remediation obligations, product warranty costs, debt covenants, pensions and deferred tax assets. There have been no significant changes in accounting policies since December 31, 2010.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

In the normal course of business, the Company’s operations are exposed to continuing fluctuations in foreign currency values and interest rates that can affect the cost of operating and financing. Accordingly, the Company addresses a portion of these risks through a program of risk management.

The Company’s primary interest rate risk exposure results from the various floating rate pricing mechanisms on the Senior Credit Facility. If interest rates were to increase 200 basis points (2 percent) from June 30, 2011 rates, and assuming no changes in debt from the June 30, 2011 levels, the additional annual expense would be approximately $1.2 million on a pre-tax basis.

The Company has assets, liabilities and cash flows in foreign currencies creating exposure to foreign currency exchange fluctuations in the normal course of business. Chart’s primary exchange rate exposure is with the euro, the British pound, the Czech koruna, the Japanese yen and the Chinese yuan. Monthly measurement, evaluation and forward exchange rate contracts are employed as methods to reduce this risk. The Company enters into foreign exchange forward contracts to hedge anticipated and firmly committed foreign currency transactions. Chart does not use derivative financial instruments for speculative or trading purposes. The terms of the contracts are generally one year or less. At June 30, 2011, the Company had foreign exchange contracts with notional amounts of (i) 4,700,000 Czech koruna to sell against the U.S. dollar, (ii) 8,000,000 euros to sell against the U.S. dollar, (iii) 368,237,000 Japanese yen to sell against the U.S. dollar, (iv) 600,000 Australian dollars to sell against the U.S. dollar, (v) 300,000 British pounds to sell against the euro, (vi) 2,000,000 Norwegian kroner to sell against the euro, (vii) 850,000 U.S. dollars to sell against the against the Czech koruna, and

 

31


(viii) 1,300,000 euros to sell against the Czech koruna. At June 30, 2011, a hypothetical 10% weakening of the U.S. dollar would not materially affect the Company’s financial statements.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

As of June 30, 2011, an evaluation was performed, under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s management including the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s 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 the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports it files or submits 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 the Company’s management including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow for timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

The Company is undertaking a phased implementation and upgrade of its existing J D Edwards Global Enterprise Resource Planning software system, and nine sites have now gone “live” as of June 30, 2011 with the remaining sites planning to go “live” during the remaining six months of 2011. The phased implementation has not materially altered the Company’s internal controls. The Company believes it is maintaining and monitoring appropriate internal controls during the implementation period and that its internal controls will be enhanced as a result of the implementation of the new system.

There were no other changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the Company’s most recent fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
