Accounting Policies [Abstract] |
Basis of Preparation | Basis of Preparation The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of Chart Industries, Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries (herein referred to as the “Company,” “Chart,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) 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. GAAP for annual financial statements. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020. 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 months ended March 31, 2021 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2021. Nature of Operations: We are a leading independent global manufacturer of highly engineered equipment servicing multiple applications in the Clean Energy and Industrial Gas markets. Our unique product portfolio is used in every phase of the liquid gas supply chain, including upfront engineering, service and repair. Being at the forefront of the clean energy transition, Chart is a leading provider of technology, equipment and services related to liquefied natural gas, hydrogen, biogas and CO2 Capture amongst other applications. We are committed to excellence in environmental, social and corporate governance (ESG) issues both for our company as well as our customers. With over 25 global locations from the United States to Asia, Australia, India, Europe and South America, we maintain accountability and transparency to our team members, suppliers, customers and communities. Principles of Consolidation: The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Chart Industries, Inc. and its subsidiaries. Intercompany accounts and transactions are eliminated in consolidation. Reclassifications: As discussed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020, on October 1, 2020, we closed on the sale of our cryobiological products business to Cryoport, Inc. (CYRX) (refer to Note 2, “Discontinued Operations” for further information). Furthermore, we reorganized our reporting structure such that the composition of our reportable segments changed effective October 1, 2020 (refer to Note 3, “Reportable Segments” for further information). As such, certain reclassifications have been made to the statement of income and comprehensive income for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and certain notes to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in order to conform to the 2021 presentation. Use of Estimates: The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements. These estimates may also affect the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates and assumptions. While our production has been considered “essential” in all locations we operate in, we have experienced, and may again experience in the future, temporary facility closures while awaiting appropriate government approvals in certain jurisdictions. The Covid-19 outbreak could also disrupt our supply chain and materially adversely impact our ability to secure supplies for our facilities, which could materially adversely affect our operations. There may also be long-term effects on our customers in and the economies of affected countries. As a result of these uncertainties, actual results could differ from those estimates and assumptions. If the economy or markets in which we operate remain weak or deteriorate further, our business, financial condition and results of operations may be materially and adversely impacted. Share Repurchase Program: As discussed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020, on March 11, 2020, our Board of Directors authorized a share repurchase program for up to $75 million of the Company’s common stock over the next twelve months through various means, including open market transactions, block purchases, privately negotiated transactions or otherwise in accordance with applicable federal securities laws, including Rule 10b-18 and Rule 10b5-1 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. During the first quarter of 2020, we repurchased 0.76 shares of our common stock at an average price of $25.40 per share for a total purchase price of $19.3. We suspended the program on March 20, 2020 (the “Suspension Date”) in light of uncertainty resulting from the Covid-19 pandemic and the desire to conserve cash resources. On March 11, 2021, the share repurchase program expired with no further repurchases since the Suspension Date. Recently Issued Accounting Standards (Not Yet Adopted): In March 2020, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2020-04, “Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848), Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting,” and in January 2021, the FASB subsequently issued ASU 2021-01, “Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Scope.” ASU 2020-04 and the subsequent modifications are identified as Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 848 (“ASC 848”). ASC 848 simplifies the accounting for modifying contracts (including those in hedging relationships) that refer to LIBOR and other interbank offered rates that are expected to be discontinued due to reference rate reform. The amendments in ASC 848 are effective for all entities as of March 12, 2020 through December 31, 2022. An entity may elect to apply the amendments for contract modifications by Topic or Industry Subtopic as of any date from the beginning of an interim period that includes or is subsequent to March 12, 2020, or prospectively from a date within an interim period that includes or is subsequent to March 12, 2020, up to the date that the financial statements are available to be issued. Once elected for a Topic or an Industry Subtopic, the amendments in ASC 848 must be applied prospectively for all eligible contract modifications for that Topic or Industry Subtopic. We expect application of the amendments to impact accounting for our senior secured revolving credit facility due June 2024. We are currently assessing the effect ASC 848 will have on our financial position, results of operations, and disclosures. Recently Adopted Accounting Standards: In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-06, “Debt—Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging—Contracts in Entities Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40).” This ASU simplifies accounting for convertible instruments by eliminating two of the three models in ASC 470-20 that require separating embedded conversion features from convertible instruments. The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021. We adopted this guidance effective January 1, 2021 under the modified retrospective adoption approach. The cumulative effect of the change was recognized as an adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings at the date of adoption. The comparative information has not been restated and continues to be presented according to accounting standards in effect for those periods. As a result of the adoption of ASU 2020-06, our convertible notes due November 2024 are no longer bifurcated into separate liability and equity components in our March 31, 2021 condensed consolidated balance sheet. Rather, the $258.8 principal amount of our convertible notes due November 2024 was classified as a liability only in our March 31, 2021 condensed consolidated balance sheet. Upon adoption of ASU 2020-06, we recorded an adjustment to the convertible notes liability component, equity component (additional paid-in-capital) and retained earnings. This adjustment was calculated based on the carrying amount of the convertible notes as if it had always been treated as a liability only. Furthermore, we recorded an adjustment to the debt issuance costs contra liability and equity (additional paid-in-capital) components under the same premise, i.e. as if debt issuance costs had always been treated as a contra liability only. Lastly, we derecognized deferred income taxes associated with the convertible notes debt discount and adjusted deferred incomes taxes relative to unamortized debt issuance costs associated with our convertible notes due November 2024. Interest expense related to the accretion of our convertible notes due November 2024 is no longer recognized. Interest accretion of convertible notes discount and net income from continuing operations attributable to Chart Industries, Inc. for the three months ended March 31, 2021 would have been $2.0 and $24.0, respectively, without the adoption of ASU 2020-06. As such, net income from continuing operations attributable to Chart Industries, Inc. per common share (both basic and diluted) for the three months ended March 31, 2021 is $0.04 higher due to the effect of adoption of ASU 2020-06. As further described in Note 9, “Debt and Credit Arrangements,” on December 31, 2020, we amended the Indenture governing our convertible notes due November 2024 to eliminate share settlement thus leaving us with two settlement options: (1) cash settlement or (2) cash for par and any combination of cash and shares for the excess settlement amount above the $258.8 principal amount of our convertible notes due November 2024. ASU 2020-06 requires usage of the if-converted method to compute diluted earnings per share for our convertible notes due November 2024, however, based on the terms of the amended Indenture and the cessation of interest accretion expense recognition from the transition at adoption, the if-converted method was modified such that interest expense is no longer added to the numerator, and the denominator only includes incremental shares that would be issued upon conversion. Impacts on Financial Statements The following table summarizes the cumulative effect of the changes to our condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2020 from the adoption of ASU 2020-06:
| Balance at December 31, 2020 |  | Adjustments due to ASU 2020-06 adoption |  | Balance at January 1, 2021
Liabilities |  |  |  |  |
Accrued income taxes | $ | 46.5 |  |  | $ | (0.2) |  |  | $ | 46.3 |
Current convertible notes (1) | 220.9 |  |  | 34.0 |  |  | 254.9 |
Long-term deferred tax liabilities | 60.2 |  |  | (7.6) |  |  | 52.6 |
Equity |  |  |  |  |
Additional paid-in-capital | $ | 780.8 |  |  | $ | (36.9) |  |  | $ | 743.9 |
Retained earnings | 808.4 |  |  | 10.7 |  |  | 819.1 |
_______________ (1)Current convertible notes is presented net of unamortized discount and debt issuance costs of $34.8 and $3.1, respectively at December 31, 2020. Current convertible notes is presented net of unamortized debt issuance costs of $3.9 at January 1, 2021. In January 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-01, “Investments – Equity Securities (Topic 321), Investments – Equity Method and Joint Ventures (Topic 323), and Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815).” This ASU clarifies the interactions between the measurement alternative in Topic 321, the equity method of accounting in Topic 323 and the application of guidance for certain forward contracts and purchased options that upon settlement or exercise would be accounted for under the equity method of accounting in Topic 815. This guidance is effective for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2020. We adopted this guidance effective January 1, 2021. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on our financial position, results of operations or disclosures.
