Aristotle Core Equity Strategy made the following comment about Chart Industries, Inc. (NYSE:GTLS) in its Q4 2022 investor letter:
“Chart Industries, Inc. (NYSE:GTLS) detracted from performance in the fourth quarter following the announcement of the acquisition of Howden Group in early November. The acquisition diluted the clean energy exposure at Chart and will increase balance sheet leverage. In December, Chart successfully raised debt that is required to close the acquisition at interest rates that were in line with management’s expectations at the time of the announcement of the deal. The decline in natural gas prices in the fourth quarter was also likely a contributor to weakness in the shares.”
