Adjusted earnings per common share attributable to Chart Industries, Inc. is not a measure of financial performance under U.S. GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to earnings per share in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Management believes that adjusted earnings per common share attributable to Chart Industries, Inc. facilitates 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. Prior to the second quarter of 2024, the impacts of the mandatory convertible preferred stock dividend were excluded from adjusted earnings per common share attributable to Chart Industries, Inc. (non-GAAP). The impacts are now included in adjusted earnings per common share attributable to Chart Industries, Inc. (non-GAAP) and historical periods have been restated to reflect the change in treatment.

Businesses divested in the fourth quarter of 2023 include American Fan, Cofimco and Cryo Diffusion. Pro forma orders, pro forma sales, pro forma gross profit and pro forma gross profit margin are not measures of financial performance under U.S. GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to orders, sales, gross profit and gross profit margin in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Management believes that pro forma orders, pro forma sales, pro forma gross profit and pro forma gross profit margin 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.
