Item 7.01 Regulation FD Disclosure.

On July 28, 2017, Chart Industries, Inc. (the “Company”) posted a slide presentation on its investor relations website. Company management is using this slide presentation in connection with customary investor meetings beginning on July 31, 2017. Pursuant to Regulation FD, a copy of the slide presentation is furnished with this Current Report on Form 8-K as Exhibit 99.1.

All information in the slide presentation is furnished and shall not be deemed “filed” with the Securities and Exchange Commission for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, or otherwise be subject to the liability of that Section, and shall not be deemed to be incorporated by reference into any filing under the Securities Act of 1933 or the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, except to the extent the Company specifically incorporated it by reference. The presentation materials include, with respect to Hudson Products, a reference to the term EBITDA, which is a non-GAAP financial measure. EBITDA is defined as earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortization, and is a measure of operating performance. The Company has not included a reconciliation of Hudson’s EBITDA to net income, EBITDA's most directly comparable GAAP financial measure, because certain items have not yet occurred or are out of the Company's control and/or cannot be reasonably predicted.
