(1)    Included in 2005 are non-recurring costs of $26.5 million for the acquisition of Chart Industries
by First Reserve.
During last growth cycle Company leveraged
its flexible manufacturing platform resulting in
operating income growth that outpaced sales
Flexible cost structure and good execution
allowed for aggressive response to economic
downturn resulting in higher operating income
level than last cycle low point
Improving markets and good performance
continue to drive favorable earnings and cash
generation, resulting in strong balance sheet
with significant liquidity
Similar or higher growth, leveraged by
acquisitions, expected to occur again during
the current growth cycle

Growing industry -
Natural gas demand is expected to continue to grow at a pace faster than coal and
oil, and will be heavily weighted towards emerging economies, which is expected to drive demand for
Chart’s products.
Natural gas expansion -
U.S. natural gas processing is expected to rise due to the production of
unconventional gas.  World primary demand for natural gas expands on average by 1.4% per year
(2008-2035) with  the biggest increases in the Middle East, China and India. (Source: International Energy
Agency –

LNG growth leader -
“Global gas demand is likely to rise by 25%, while the use of LNG
is set to surge
by 40% by 2020.”

Dramatic increase in imported LNG in China has already begun and
is expected to accelerate, with China
aggressively investing in LNG infrastructure, including LNG transportation and storage equipment
China’s twelfth 5-year plan (2011 -
2015) mandates an increase of gas as a percentage of energy consumption
from less than 4% to over 8% (compared to over 20% for the U.S.)
China road transit authority expects to add 2 million new gas fueled vehicles, with 2/3 being LNG
Lack of pipeline infrastructure in China requires “virtual pipeline”
with LNG, and Chart D&S equipment (e.g.,
storage, transportation, etc.) can fill this gap

14
Natural gas penetration –
Increasing as a viable energy
source and transportation fuel due to its high energy density,
lower costs and low emissions
Broad product offering -
Chart provides products and
solutions for the full LNG value chain: LNG liquefiers,
transportation equipment, terminal storage equipment and
vehicle tanks for both on-road and off-road heavy duty
vehicles and marine applications
Favorable environment -
Energy bill initiatives in Congress
could significantly boost natural gas vehicle adoption in U.S.
and drive a multi-year build-out of LNG production, storage
and distribution infrastructure and creating additional market
opportunities for Chart

Historical Orders and Backlog


2011 Outlook
Global markets are expected to continue their recovery during 2011 with the return of significant project work in
the E&C business and continued growth in LNG-related orders in the D&S business
Received
an
NRU
(Nitrogen
Rejection
Unit)
order
in
excess
of
$90
million
in
first
quarter
2011.
We
remain
optimistic about additional large project opportunities in the E&C business
2011 net sales are expected to be in a range of $710 to $750 million and earnings of $1.50 to $1.70 per diluted
share.  Our EPS range includes approximately $0.20 per diluted share for anticipated restructuring charges for
the recently completed SeQual acquisition and trailing costs associated with the shutdown of the Plainfield,
Indiana facility acquired from Covidien.  Therefore, our adjusted EPS would be $1.70 to $1.90 per share.
The majority of these restructuring charges will occur in the first half of 2011, so second half earnings will be
much stronger than the first half.  In addition, first quarter is normally our weakest quarter of the year.
