Chart Industries Reports Record 2023 Third Quarter Financial Results and Completes Divestiture of American Fan for $111 million


ATLANTA, Oct. 27, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Chart Industries, Inc. (NYSE: GTLS) today reported strong results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2023.  Results shown are from continuing operations unless otherwise noted and exclude the Roots™ financial results for our ownership period of March 17, 2023 through the close of the divestiture on August 18, 2023.  When referring to any 2022 comparative period, all metrics are proforma for the combined business of Chart and Howden.

The following are included in continuing operations for the third quarter 2023: (a) We signed a definitive agreement on July 26, 2023 to sell our Cofimco fans business to PX3 Partners for $80 million, and this transaction is anticipated to close on October 31, 2023 (earlier than originally anticipated).  For the third quarter 2023 and year-to-date through September 30, 2023, Cofimco is treated as an asset held for sale; (b) We signed and closed on the divestiture of our American Fan business for $111 million all-cash to Arcline Investment Management, L.P. (“Arcline”) on October 26, 2023 and thus, the American Fan business is not included in our outlook as of yesterday; (c) We expect to close on the sale of Cryo Diffusion for 4.25 million euros next week, and as a result, Cryo Diffusion is no longer included in our outlook.  Further details can be found in the supplemental presentation accompanying this release and published in the investor relations section of our website.  Highlights include:

  • Record backlog of $4.1 billion is an increase of 4.4% compared to second quarter 2023 backlog (prior record) and was driven by record backlog for Repair, Service and Leasing (“RSL”) and Specialty Products
  • Record orders of $1.13 billion grew 6.0% (30.6% ex Big LNG orders) compared to second quarter 2023 and resulted in book-to-bill of 1.26 (including 1.22 for RSL)
  • Achieved a total of $297.9 million commercial synergies related to the Howden acquisition, exceeding our year-one commercial synergy target of $150 million; achieved year-one cost synergies of $135.6 million putting us on track to meet or exceed our year-one target of $175 million
  • Sales of $897.9 million increased 9.8% when compared to the third quarter of 2022
  • Reported gross profit of $276.2 million and associated reported gross profit as a percent of sales of 30.8% brings year-to-date 2023 gross margin above 30% and when adjusted for one-time items, primarily Howden deal and integration-related costs, gross profit as a percent of sales was 31.8%
  • Third quarter 2023 record reported operating income of $104.4 million increased 9.1% compared to the second quarter 2023 and was a record $161.4 million when adjusted for primarily Howden deal and integration related costs; adjusted operating margin of 18.0% was a record
  • Record reported EBITDA of $169.3 million drove record EBITDA margin of 18.9%; when adjusted for one-time costs primarily related to Howden deal and integration costs, adjusted EBITDA was $195.0 million and 21.7% EBITDA margin, an increase of 440 bps compared to third quarter 2022 proforma EBITDA margin
  • Third quarter 2023 adjusted net cash provided by continuing operations (non-GAAP) of $104.4 million less continuing operations capital expenditures (net of proceeds of capex sales) of $57.4 million results in free cash flow (“FCF”) from continuing operations (non-GAAP) of $47.0 million; when adjusted for Howden deal related cash costs, adjusted FCF from continuing operations (non-GAAP) was $84.8 million (and $128.8 million when excluding accelerated capital investment in our Theodore, Alabama expansion and stub period payment)
  • Executed numerous deleveraging actions resulting in a net leverage ratio of 3.59 (proforma 9/30/2023 net leverage ratio of 3.47 adjusting for Cofimco, Cryo Diffusion and American Fan divestitures)
  • Achieved approximately $500 million of divestiture proceeds from a subset of the originally communicated asset sale perimeter within seven months post-close of the Howden acquisition
  • Updating our full year 2023 sales guidance to $3.45 billion to $3.50 billion (prior outlook of $3.66 billion to $3.80 billion) to remove sales associated with American Fan, Cryo Diffusion, and Cofimco due to the accelerated timeline of these divestitures versus our original forecast as well as revenue timing between quarters with associated adjusted EBITDA 2023 range of $745 million to $760 million (prior outlook range of $780 million to $810 million).  Increased adjusted FCF full year 2023 outlook to $335 million to $350 million (above mid-point of our previous guidance of $300 million to $350 million).  Our full year 2023 adjusted EPS range is $6.05 to $6.25 (in line with our prior outlook)
  • We are reiterating our 2024 adjusted EBITDA forecast of approximately $1.3 billion on our outlook for 2024 sales of approximately $5.1 billion, adjusted EPS of $14.00 plus, and FCF guidance of $575 million to $625 million

Records for the third quarter 2023 include backlog, orders excluding Big LNG, operating income, adjusted operating income, reported EBITDA and reported and adjusted EBITDA margin.

We continue to see strong demand across our business, resulting in record backlog of $4.1 billion for the combined business as well as Chart and Howden standalone backlog records, driven by third quarter 2023 orders of $1.13 billion and exceeding our year-one commercial synergy goal by nearly 100% at the seven-month post-Howden acquisition mark.  Third quarter 2023 orders did not include any Big LNG orders and increased 6.0% sequentially from the second quarter 2023 which included an approximately $200 million Big LNG order.  Excluding Big LNG orders, third quarter 2023 orders increased ~30% when compared to the second quarter 2023 orders and increased 1.5% when compared to third quarter 2022 (proforma).  HTS orders, excluding Big LNG, grew ~72% compared to the second quarter 2023.

Third quarter 2023 record EBITDA margin of 18.9% and adjusted EBITDA margin of 21.7% exceeded our second quarter 2023 and grew 440 basis points when compared to the third quarter 2022 (proforma).  Additionally, the third quarter 2023 gross margin of 30.8% (adjusted 31.8%) reflects our ongoing cost synergy achievements, strong aftermarket, service repair margin, price/cost actions, improved supply chain costs and operational execution.  Each quarter since the close of the Howden acquisition produced both reported and adjusted gross margin above 30% and adjusted EBITDA margin above 21.5%, and we expect this trend to continue.  Repair, Service and Leasing (“RSL”) and Cryo Tank Solutions (“CTS”) reported gross margins increased over 200 bps compared to the second quarter 2023 with strong RSL mix and continued price/cost improvements in CTS.  CTS and Specialty Products also had record reported gross profit.  This contributed to third quarter 2023 record reported operating income of $104.4 million and $161.4 million when adjusted for one-time costs primarily associated with the Howden deal and integration.  Specialty Products segment, brazed aluminum heat exchangers, engineered tanks and systems and mobile equipment all had record operating income.  Additionally, Operating margin increased in 3 of the 4 segments sequentially when compared with the second quarter 2023, and when excluding Big LNG, increased in all four segments.  Adjusted operating margin increased in the third quarter 2023 across all four segments when compared to the third quarter 2022 (proforma). 

Reported earnings per share for the third quarter 2023 was $0.05 and when adjusted for one-time costs, adjusted EPS of $1.28.

Third quarter 2023 sales of $897.9 million grew 9.8% when compared to the third quarter of 2022 (proforma) and included record sales for CTS and Specialty Products (proforma).  We had approximately $100 million of sales shift from the third quarter 2023 to fourth quarter 2023 or early 2024 due to supply chain delivery timing related to our percent of completion revenue recognition, customer design changes, and RSL field service outage revenue timing, none of which is atypical given the nature of our business.  This is revenue recognition timing, not lost revenue, as evidenced by our significantly below 1% order cancellation rate (of backlog) historically (combined and standalone).  Since the Howden acquisition we have had only 0.19% of backlog cancelled. 

We concluded the third quarter 2023 with a total recordable incident rate (“TRIR”) of 0.52 (improved from 0.57 at June 30, 2023), with our lowest lost time incident rate (“LTIR”) of 0.20, and 70% of our locations being accident-free for a year or more, demonstrating our OneChart™ global team members’ continued commitment to our top priority, safety. 

Continued broad-based demand with no indicators of slowing ahead.

Third quarter 2023 backlog of $4.1 billion set a new record, following the prior historical high backlog of $3.96 billion as of the end of the second quarter 2023.  This reflects strong demand across our business and end markets which we expect to continue throughout the remainder of 2023 and the coming years.  Third quarter 2023 orders of $1.13 billion did not include any Big LNG orders and resulted in a book-to-bill ratio of 1.26.  We continue to expect one additional Big LNG order around year-end 2023.  We are also very proud to announce that during the third quarter 2023 our IPSMR® liquefaction technology was chosen for a major international Big LNG project (modular design) for which the order is expected to be booked in late 2024 or early 2025 and engineering is already underway.  We also received another patent for our mixed refrigerant technology in August 2023.  

The drivers of the third quarter 2023 orders included strong hydrogen, small-scale LNG, water treatment, traditional energy, clean mining and carbon capture (“CCUS”) order activity, with space exploration and carbon capture orders year-to-date through September 30, 2023 exceeding the full year 2022 orders for these end markets (proforma) and with Specialty Products and RSL achieving record orders.  CCUS, space exploration, hydrogen/helium and water treatment orders in the third quarter 2023 were our highest in any quarter in our history and included multiple wins from global customers.  Additionally, our year-to-date mining orders exceeded the original plan for the full year 2023 as of July 2023.  Overall, we booked orders with 83 new customers in the third quarter 2023 and had 26 first-of-a-kind orders.  Examples of these include an order from Day & Zimmerman for a water treatment system for treating trace amounts of TNT in wastewater as well as a blower system for Seaspan which will be used in ice breaking in marine ships.

We booked 139 orders that were each above $1 million, the second quarter in a row with this metric being over 100.  We expect this trend to continue, as we have already booked multiple orders October month-to-date each over $1 million, including one for approximately $15 million for hydrogen compression, one for a cryogenic hydrogen separation system project for a petrochemical application for $13.8 million, and a Wind Tunnel job for Great Wall Motor of approximately $7 million to use our low-noise Howden axial fans.

We continue to see hydrogen demand expand globally, across the gaseous and liquid hydrogen value chain and across various geographies, with multiple hydrogen synergy orders booked in the third quarter 2023, including an order for hydrogen compression worth over $16 million for a Korean customer.  Trends positively impacting our record hydrogen backlog include the increasing size of orders, growth of end-use solutions where we have developed new more integrated products such as fuel stations, the inclusion of Howden compressors, and the growth of the liquefaction and production market itself. 

On October 13, 2023, the U.S. Department of Energy (“DOE”) announced the selection of seven Regional Hydrogen Hubs (“H2Hubs”).  We are a partner in the HyVelocity Hub with Cummins and Hyundai, among others.  It is important to note that each of the seven Hubs (approximately $1 billion each) is not a single project in a single location, but rather each hub will be a collection of projects across the hydrogen value chain.  We have been in discussion with many of the potential projects that will now be down selected by the respective Regional Hub partners, and we anticipate multiple orders across the hubs.  We will not be limited as a supplier to just one hub as every Hub will need the type of solutions, technology and equipment in our hydrogen portfolio, including compression, liquefaction, load-out systems, storage tanks, trailers as well as carbon capture, CO2 storage and transport and water treatment. 

Our commercial pipeline across end markets continues to grow.  We have over $20.3 billion of potential orders in our commercial pipeline, including over $1.3 billion that are potential commercial synergy orders resulting from the Chart and Howden combination.  Our total commercial pipeline as well as our synergy pipeline is expected to keep growing in the quarters and years ahead. In just one quarter, even with orders of $1.13 billion, our pipeline increased from $20.0 billion to $20.3 billion.  Similarly, our commercial synergy pipeline increased from approximately $800 million in May 2023 to approximately $1 billion in July 2023 to over $1.3 billion currently.

Exceptional commercial and cost synergy achievement seven month following the close of the Howden acquisition.

A very strong third quarter 2023 for synergy orders resulted in commercial synergy awards totaling $297.9 million, exceeding our year-one commercial synergy target by nearly 100%.  The breadth of the commercial synergy awards ranges from hydrogen liquefaction to a LNG retrofit, to a Middle East oil and gas project to carbon capture.  These commercial synergy awards are generated from Chart and Howden legacy customers and new customers.

To date, we have achieved $135.6 million of annualized cost synergies.  More cost synergy potential has been identified as the teams work together and the annual cycle of many renewals occurs in January 2024.  We reiterate our expectation that we will deliver or exceed our year-one cost synergy target of $175 million by March 2024. 

“We are extremely pleased with our third quarter and year-to-date 2023 performance and execution, including record operating income, adjusted operating income growth, record backlog, and exceeding our year-one commercial synergy target by 100%, all of which set us up to deliver our 2024 outlook,” stated Jill Evanko, Chart’s CEO and President.  “What may be the most important factors for our success over the next decade is our continuing growth of our orders and commercial pipeline coupled with our achievement of record operating and EBITDA margins, all of which we expect to continue ahead, supporting our profitable growth strategy.”

Aftermarket, service and repair demand and execution has been exceptionally strong since the close of the Howden acquisition with third quarter 2023 RSL gross margins of 43.3%.

The RSL segment had another strong order and margin quarter as we continue to see global aftermarket demand.  Our long-term service agreements (“LTSAs”) and Framework Agreements for multi-year service and repair capabilities have increased by 9.2% since the beginning of the year.  Third quarter 2023 book-to-bill for RSL was 1.22, and RSL orders increased 22.1% when compared to RSL (proforma) third quarter 2022.  Year-to-date September 30, 2023, RSL orders increased 15.7% when compared to the same period in 2022 (proforma) supporting record third quarter 2023 RSL backlog of $609.7 million, an increase of 36.7% compared to the third quarter 2022 (proforma for the combined business).  RSL sales declined sequentially (by approximately $27.4 million) from the second quarter 2023 due to customer timing of outages and timing of field service repairs scheduled for fourth quarter customer capital spend.  RSL sales increased 15.5% year-to-date third quarter 2023 when compared to the same period in 2022. 

Multiple deleveraging actions drove September 30, 2023 net leverage ratio of 3.59 (proforma 9/30/2023 net leverage ratio for announced divestitures of 3.47).

We have achieved approximately $500 million of divestiture proceeds (approximately $411 million cash received to date and approximately $84.5 million expected this month) from our originally communicated asset sale perimeter.  Additionally, we have one additional business that was considered in the original asset sale perimeter that has not been sold, and we are evaluating whether we will proceed with a divestiture or keep the business within our portfolio. 

In addition to the above, we successfully repriced our Term Loan B and repatriated approximately $25 million cash from restricted jurisdictions (China, South Africa, India) – continuing to drive efficiency of cash balances globally.  In the fourth quarter 2023, we anticipate closing on facility sales at two locations, generating approximately $4.75 million of additional cash.

We previously announced our facility expansion in Theodore, Alabama, and we’ve accelerated our investment timing to take advantage of market opportunities.  These opportunities are primarily in the space exploration, rail and marine market segments where multiple, high quality and longstanding customers are accelerating their activities and want deliveries as early as possible in 2024.  We were able to work with our building contractors to accelerate the pouring of the very thick concrete floor (holds tanks up to 1 million pounds) and expedite the arrival and erection of the building steel.  We originally had multi-phase capex optionality which was to be determined based on future demand.  Given the rail car order activity, we also decided to accelerate what was originally “phase 2” scope, with the rail spur revamp and addition at the facility.  We now expect occupancy and the beginning of operations earlier than originally anticipated.  While expediting this schedule pulled forward related capital expenditure spend, it was instrumental in securing the $58 million of third quarter 2023 orders booked specifically for Teddy 2, bringing backlog for that specific facility to over $115 million, an incredibly high return on investment (“ROI”) project for us.

The technical presentation of net cash from operations on the statement of cash flows includes all activity related to Roots™ discontinued operations, Howden acquisition adjustments and Cofimco assets held for sale as well as continuing operations.  Therefore, when removing the non-continuing operations activity in the quarter, our adjusted net cash provided by continuing operations (non-GAAP) was approximately $104.4 million.  Capital expenditures from continuing operations in the third quarter 2023 (net of proceeds from sales of capex), was approximately $57.4 million, including the accelerated spend on our Theodore, Alabama facility of approximately $35 million.  Therefore, FCF from continuing operations (non-GAAP), excluding any adjustments, was $47.0 million.  When adjusted for deal and integration related activities (M&A advisor and other deal and integration related cash costs of $37.8 million), net cash from continuing operations (non-GAAP) was approximately $142.2 million, resulting in adjusted FCF from continuing operations (non-GAAP) of $84.8 million (excluding the additional Thoedore, Alabama capex spend and the stub period, not repeating interest payment, was normalized FCF from continuing operations (non-GAAP) was approximately $128.8 million).

In addition to the above, third quarter 2023 operational cash from continuing operations included the payment of our second half 2023 senior secured note interest in July 2023 of approximately $83 million (will not repeat in the fourth quarter 2023 and beginning in 2024 will be approximately $74 million semi-annually going forward).

In visual format, the following table walks from U.S. GAAP reported statement of cash flows, cash from operations (which includes both continuing and discontinued operations) to our adjusted FCF from continuing operations (non-GAAP) of $84.8 million, which is the metric we are using for guidance.

Updating 2023 Outlook and Providing 2024 Forecast.

We are updating our full year 2023 sales forecast to approximately $3.45 billion to $3.50 billion (prior 2023 full year sales forecast of $3.66 billion to $3.80 billion).  This is driven by the removal of sales associated with American Fan, Cryo Diffusion, and Cofimco due to the accelerated closing as compared to the originally anticipated closing timing as well as our expectation of the timing of the delayed revenue recognition moving into 2024 primarily from supply chain delivery timing. Our full year adjusted EBITDA is anticipated to be in the range of $745 million to $760 million (prior 2023 full year forecast of $780 million to $810 million). In aggregate, we divested a total of approximately $225 million of annualized revenue at EBITDA multiples in-line with prior Chart transactions, as previously discussed. We expect to see a sequential step up in adjusted free cash flow in the fourth quarter 2023, resulting in a full year 2023 outlook for adjusted free cash flow of $335 million to $350 million, above the mid-point of our prior range of $300 million to $350 million.  Our expected full year 2023 adjusted EPS is in the range of $6.05 to $6.25, narrowed from our prior outlook range of $5.70 to $6.70.

Our 2024 adjusted EBITDA forecast of approximately $1.3 billion remains unchanged from November 2022 despite the divestitures we announced year-to-date 2023. We are initiating a 2024 sales outlook of approximately $5.1 billion and an adjusted earnings per share estimate of $14.00 plus.  In addition, we anticipate our full year 2024 free cash flow to be in the range of $575 million to $625 million.  We look forward to sharing further 2024 metrics at our Investor Day at the New York Stock Exchange on November 28, 2023.

_______________

Adjusted gross profit and adjusted operating income (loss) are not measures of financial performance under U.S. GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to gross profit and operating income (loss) in accordance with U.S. GAAP.  Management believes that adjusted gross profit and adjusted operating income (loss) facilitate useful period-to-period comparisons of our financial results and this information is used by us in evaluating internal performance.  Our calculation of these non-GAAP measures may not be comparable to the calculations of similarly titled measures reported by other companies.
