The combined company generated net revenue of approximately $8.8 billion on a combined LTM basis as of the end of Q1 2025, drawn from diverse end markets, including approximately $3.7 billion in aftermarket services revenue, representing approximately 42 percent of combined revenue.

Under the agreement, which has been unanimously approved by the board of directors of each

Following the close of the transaction, Chart shareholders will own approximately 53.5 percent and Flowserve shareholders will own approximately 46.5 percent of the combined company, on a fully diluted basis.

Upon closing, the combined company’s board will comprise 12 directors, six of whom will be from Chart and six from Flowserve.

Jill Evanko, president and CEO of Chart, will serve as the chair of the combined company’s board of directors, while Scott Rowe, president and CEO of Flowserve, will serve as CEO of the combined company.

The combined company will have its headquarters in Dallas, Texas, and expects to maintain a presence in Atlanta and Houston, supported by a global footprint across more than 50 countries.
