Analyst EPS estimate for GTLS

  • Consensus EPS estimate$1.76 next reporting period, as of 2026-08-12

Change over time is not available yet: it needs two readings of the same reporting period at least 30 days apart, and we have been recording these estimates since 2026-08-04. An estimate for a DIFFERENT quarter is not a revision, so a reading from before the last report is never compared with one after it.

The consensus estimate for the next reporting period, and how it has moved between readings of that SAME period. A change is measured only between readings estimating one period — when a company reports, the consensus moves to the next quarter and the two numbers are not comparable. Informational only, not a forecast and not advice.

View full insider trading history → View SEC Form 3/4/5 filings

Only open-market purchases (SEC code P) and sales (code S) are counted here. Option exercises, vesting/awards, gifts, and shares withheld for taxes are excluded — they are compensation or mechanical, not open-market conviction. Sales may be planned and non-discretionary (e.g. a Rule 10b5-1 plan) and are not necessarily bearish; open-market buying is not a recommendation to buy. Informational only — not financial advice.

Short interest (FINRA)

GTLS had 4,513,697 shares of reported short interest as of the 2026-07-15 FINRA settlement date (delayed, bi-monthly; not real-time).

GTLS had 9.43% of its shares outstanding sold short as of the 2026-07-15 FINRA settlement date (percent of FLOAT would be higher — float is not disclosed in the source). FINRA reported 3.17 days to cover at the same settlement.

  • Reported short interest (shares) 4,513,697
  • Short interest (% of shares outstanding) 9.43%
  • Prior settlement (shares) 4,650,493
  • Reported change -2.94%
  • Days to cover (reported) 3.17

Reported to FINRA as of the 2026-07-15 settlement date. Short interest is reported to FINRA and published on a delayed, bi-monthly schedule (as of a settlement date, disseminated roughly eight business days later) — it is NOT real-time, does not cover every venue or all US trading, and is not a short-squeeze prediction or investment advice. Days-to-cover is the value FINRA reports; percent of float is not shown because the source file carries no share-count denominator — where a percent appears it is of shares OUTSTANDING, the larger base, and is therefore a floor on percent of float.
