What the Numbers Say It Is Worth
The Fair Value Range

The Business, in Plain Words
Cryogenics Maker Overvalued and Debt Heavy
Picture a supplier of tanks and heat exchangers for industrial gases that suddenly sees orders slow. Chart Industries sits in that spot right now, yet trades at a 22 times forward earnings multiple while revenue drops 12 percent and margins sit at minus 1 percent.
We pass because the valuation leaves no margin of safety against a weak competitive position and an ethical screen that flags excessive debt. Negative return on equity and a hold rating from analysts at a price already above our fair value of 147 dollars reinforce the mismatch.
High leverage adds real cyclical pressure that could bite harder if energy projects keep deferring. Analysis, not advice.
