As previously announced, on July 28, 2025, Chart Industries, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("Chart"), Baker Hughes Company, a Delaware corporation ("Baker Hughes"), and Tango Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation and an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Baker Hughes ("Merger Sub"), entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the "Merger Agreement"), pursuant to which Baker Hughes will acquire Chart through a merger of Merger Sub with and into Chart (the "Merger"), with Chart surviving the Merger as an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Baker Hughes.

The completion of the Merger is conditioned on, among other things, the expiration or termination of the waiting period under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended (the "HSR Act"). The waiting period under the HSR Act expired at 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time on November 6, 2025.

Both parties continue to expect the Merger to close in mid-year 2026, subject to customary conditions and the receipt of the other applicable regulatory approvals.

#### Forward-Looking Statements
The matters discussed in this current report include "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act and Section 21E of the Exchange Act, about the plans, strategies, objectives, goals or expectations of Chart. These statements include, but are not limited to, statements about the benefits of the proposed merger between Chart and Baker Hughes, the expected timing of the completion of the transaction, and other statements that are not historical facts. You can identify forward-looking statements by terminology such as "may," "will," "should," "could," "expects," "believes," "projects," "forecasts," "intends," "plans," and similar expressions. These forward-looking statements are based upon current plans, estimates, and expectations that are subject to risks, uncertainties, and assumptions, many of which are beyond the control of Chart and Baker Hughes, that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed in such statements. Key factors that could cause actual results to differ materially include, but are not limited to, the risks detailed in Chart's filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"), including in Chart's most recent filings on Forms 10-K and 10-Q, factors and matters described herein and in the Definitive Proxy Statement, as supplemented, and the following factors: (1) the risk that the Merger may not be completed in a timely manner or at all, which may adversely affect the businesses and the market price of the common stock of Chart; (2) the failure to obtain, or delays in obtaining, required regulatory approvals from governmental authorities, or the imposition of conditions on such approvals that may have an adverse effect on Chart or Baker Hughes or may cause the parties to abandon the Merger; (3) the occurrence of any event, change, or other circumstance that could give rise to the termination of the Merger

------

Agreement, including in circumstances that would require Chart or Baker Hughes to pay a termination fee; (4) the effect of the announcement and pendency of the Merger on Chart's business relationships, operating results, and business generally, including the risk of potential difficulties in employee retention and the risk of disruption to management's attention from ongoing business operations; and (5) the risk of litigation related to the Merger. Additional risks and uncertainties are described in the "Risk Factors" sections of Chart's and Baker Hughes' most recent Annual Reports on Form 10-K and in subsequent filings with the SEC. The foregoing list of factors is not exhaustive. You should not place undue reliance on any forward-looking statements, which are based only on information currently available to Chart. Chart does not undertake any obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise, except as required by law.

------
