**FORWARD
LOOKING STATEMENTS AND INTRODUCTION**
All
statements other than statements of historical fact included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K (this Form 10-K) including,
without limitation, statements under Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
regarding our financial position, business strategy and the plans and objectives of management for future operations, are forward looking
statements. When used in this Form 10-K, words such as anticipate, believe, estimate, expect,
intend and similar expressions, as they relate to us or our management, identify forward looking statements. Such forward
looking statements are based on the beliefs of management, as well as assumptions made by, and information currently available to, our
management. Actual results could differ materially from those contemplated by the forward-looking statements as a result of certain factors
detailed in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. You are urged to carefully review the disclosures we make concerning
risks and uncertainties that may affect our business and future financial performance, including those made below under Summary
Risk Factors and in Item 1A, Risk Factors in this Form 10-K. Except as required by law, we do not undertake, and
hereby disclaim, any obligation to update any forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date on which they are made. All
subsequent written or oral forward-looking statements attributable to us or persons acting on our behalf are qualified in their entirety
by this paragraph.
**Risk
Factors Summary**
Investors
should consider the risks and uncertainties described below that may affect our business and future financial performance. These and
other risks and uncertainties are more fully described below in section titled Item 1A, Risk Factors in this Form 10-K.
Additional risks not presently known to us or that we currently deem immaterial may also affect us. If any of these risks occur, our
business, financial condition or results of operations could be materially and adversely affected.
As
more fully set forth below under the section titled Item 1A, Risk Factors in this Form 10-K, principal risks and uncertainties
that may affect our business, financial condition or results of operations include the following risks:
*Risks
Related to Our Business Operations*
| 
| 
| 
We
operate in competitive markets, and our business could suffer if we are unable to adequately address potential downward pricing pressures
and other factors that may reduce operating margins. | |
| 
| 
| 
Failure
to maintain the performance, reliability and quality standards required by our customers could have a materially negative impact
on our financial condition and results of operation. | |
| 
| 
| 
The
volatility of the cost of raw materials used to produce our products could materially adversely affect our results of operations
in the future. | |
| 
| 
| 
We
rely on third-party suppliers for raw materials and third-party transportation, each of which subjects us to risks and costs that
we cannot control, and which risks and costs may materially adversely affect our operations. | |
| 
| 
| 
We
may not realize the anticipated benefit through our joint venture with Saint-Gobain and the planned construction of a new plant as
part of the joint venture may not be completed as planned. | |
| 
| 
| 
Our
success depends upon our ability to develop new products and services, integrate acquired products and services and enhance existing
products and services through product development initiatives and technological advances; any failure to make such improvements could
harm our future business and prospects. | |
| 
| 
| 
The
home building industry and the home repair and remodeling sector are regulated and any increased regulatory restrictions or changes
in building codes could negatively affect our sales and results of operations. | |
| 
| 
| 
Changes
in building codes could lower the demand for our impact-resistant windows and doors. | |
| 
| 
| 
Equipment
failures, delays in deliveries and catastrophic loss at our manufacturing facility could lead to production curtailments or shutdowns
that prevent us from producing our products. | |
| 
| 
| 
Our
reliance on a single facility subjects us to concentrated risks. | |
| 
| 
| 
Customer
concentration and related credit, commercial and legal risk may adversely impact our future earnings and cash flows. | |
| 
| 
| 
If
new construction levels and repair and remodeling markets decline, such market pressures could negatively affect our results of operations. | |
| 
| 
| 
Our
business involves complex manufacturing processes that may cause personal injury or property damage, subjecting us to liabilities,
possible losses, and other disruptions of our operations in the future, which may not be covered by insurance. | |
| 
| 
| 
The
nature of our business exposes each of our subsidiaries to product liability and warranty claims that, if adversely determined, could
negatively affect our financial condition and results of operations and the confidence of customers in our products. | |
| 
| 
| 
We
are subject to potential exposure to environmental liabilities and are subject to environmental regulation and any such liabilities
or regulation may negatively affect our costs and results of operations in the future. | |
| 
| 
| 
Weather
can materially affect our business and we are subject to seasonality. | |
| 
| 
| 
Our
results of operations could be significantly affected by foreign currency fluctuations and currency regulations. | |
| 
| 
| 
We
are dependent on certain key personnel, the loss of whom could materially affect our financial performance and prospects in the future. | |
| 
| 
| 
Certain
of our officers and directors have been involved in litigation, investigations or other proceedings and may be so again in the future,
the defense or prosecution of such matters could be time-consuming and could divert our managements attention and may have
an adverse effect on us. | |
| 3 | |
| 
| 
| 
We
have entered from time to time into significant transactions with affiliates or other related parties, which may result in conflicts
of interest. | |
| 
| 
| 
The
interests of our controlling shareholders could differ from the interests of our other shareholders. | |
| 
| 
| 
We
conduct all of our operations through our subsidiaries and will rely on payments from our subsidiaries to meet all of our obligations
and may fail to meet our obligations if our subsidiaries are unable to make payments to us. | |
| 
| 
| 
Our
indebtedness could adversely affect our financial health and prevent us from fulfilling our obligations. | |
*Risks
Related to Colombia and Other Countries Where We Operate*
| 
| 
| 
Our
operations are located in Colombia, which may make it more difficult for U.S. investors to understand and predict how changing market
and economic conditions will affect our financial results. It also may be difficult or impossible to enforce judgments of courts
of the United States and other jurisdictions against our Colombian subsidiaries or any of their directors, officers and controlling
persons. | |
| 
| 
| 
Economic
and political conditions in Colombia may have an adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations. | |
| 
| 
| 
The
Colombian Government and the Central Bank exercise significant influence on the Colombian economy. | |
| 
| 
| 
Factors
such as Colombias growing public debt and fluctuating exchange rates could adversely affect the Colombian economy. | |
| 
| 
| 
Economic
instability in Colombia could negatively affect our ability to sell our products. | |
| 
| 
| 
Government
policies and actions and judicial decisions in Colombia could significantly affect our results of operations and financial condition
in the future. | |
| 
| 
| 
Our
business could be negatively impacted by tariffs imposed by the U.S. government and trade tensions between the U.S. and Colombia. | |
| 
| 
| 
We
are dependent on sales to customers outside Colombia and any failure to make these sales may adversely affect our operating results
in the future. | |
| 
| 
| 
We
are subject to trade investigations conducted by U.S. authorities over Colombian products that may result in additional duties for
our products. | |
*Risks
Related to Us and Our Securities*
| 
| 
| 
Because
we are incorporated under the laws of the Cayman Islands, you may face difficulties in protecting your interests, and your ability
to protect your rights through the U.S. Federal courts may be limited. | |
| 
| 
| 
If
we fail to maintain proper and effective internal controls, our ability to produce accurate financial statements could be impaired,
which could adversely affect our business. | |
| 
| 
| 
Anti-takeover
provisions in our organizational documents and Cayman Islands law may discourage or prevent a change of control, even if an acquisition
would be beneficial to our shareholders, which could depress the price of our ordinary shares and prevent attempts by our shareholders
to replace or remove our current management. | |
| 
| 
| 
We
are a controlled company, controlled by Energy Holding Corp., whose interest in our business may be different from
ours or yours. | |
| 
| 
| 
We
cannot assure you that we will continue to pay dividends on our ordinary shares, and our indebtedness, future investments or cashflow
generation could limit our ability to continue to pay dividends on our ordinary shares. | |
| 
| 
| 
If
a United States person is treated as owning at least 10% of the value or voting power of our shares, such holder may be subject to
adverse U.S. federal income tax consequences. | |
*Risks
Related to Public Health Events, Epidemics, Pandemics and Similar Outbreaks*
| 
| 
| 
We
face various risks related to health epidemics, pandemics and other public health events, including the global outbreak of COVID-19,
which may have material adverse effects on our business, financial position, results of operations and/or cash flows. These risks
may include, among other things, workforce disruptions; constraints on travel and onsite activities; supply-chain interruptions;
inflationary pressures and reduced availability of materials, components, or logistics capacity; changes in customer demand; and
increased costs to implement health and safety measures. While the acute impacts of COVID-19 have generally moderated, resurgences
of COVID-19 variants or other outbreaks could result in renewed governmental, regulatory, or voluntary measures, and could adversely
affect our operations and those of our customers, suppliers, and other business partners. | |

**Our
Business**
**General**
We
are experienced and highly skilled in the vertical integration of window and architectural glass manufacturing, distribution, and professional
fitting. Our expertise extends to the production of top-quality windows, as well as the supply of aluminum, vinyl, and other components.
Our dedicated and knowledgeable team serves a diverse range of commercial and residential construction projects worldwide, guaranteeing
outstanding products and seamless installation services. With a focus on innovation, combined with providing highly specified products
with the highest quality standards at competitive prices, we have earned #1 spot in the Forbes list of Americas 100 most
successful small-cap companies for 2024, and developed a leadership position in each of our core markets. In the United States, which
is our largest market, we were ranked among the four largest glass fabricators serving the United States in 2025 by Glass Magazine. In
addition, we believe we are the leading glass transformation company in Colombia. Our customers, which include developers, general contractors
or installers for hotels, office buildings, shopping centers, airports, universities, hospitals and multi-family and residential buildings,
look to us as a value-added partner based on our product development capabilities, our high-quality products and our unwavering commitment
to exceptional service.
With
over 40 years of experience in architectural glass and aluminum assembly, we specialize in transforming various glass products. Our offerings
include tempered safety glass, double thermo-acoustic glass, and laminated glass. Our wide range of finished glass products are utilized
in diverse buildings for floating facades, curtain walls, windows, doors, handrails, as well as interior and bathroom spatial dividers.
In addition to glass, we manufacture aluminum and vinyl products such as profiles, rods, bars, plates, and other hardware specifically
designed for window manufacturing.
The
majority of our products are manufactured in a 6.1 million square foot, state-of-the-art manufacturing complex in Barranquilla, Colombia
that provides easy access to North, Central and South America, the Caribbean and the Pacific. Our products can be found on some of the
most distinctive buildings in these regions, including 100 Hood Park Drive (Boston), 601 West 29th St (New York). Norwegian
Cruise Line Terminal B (Miami), Paramount Miami Worldcenter (Miami), Via 57 West (New York), One65 Main (Cambridge), AEO Tower
(Honolulu), Salesforce Tower (San Francisco), and One Thousand Museum (Miami). Our track record of successfully delivering high profile
projects has earned us an increasing number of opportunities across the United States, evidenced by our expanding backlog and overall
revenue growth.
Our
structural competitive advantage is underpinned by our low-cost manufacturing footprint, vertically integrated business model and geographic
location. Our integrated facilities in Colombia and distribution and services operations in Florida provide us with a significant cost
advantage in both manufacturing and distribution, and we continue to invest in these operations to expand our operational capabilities.
We also leverage automation and process digitalization across our operations to improve throughput, consistency and scalability, supporting
cost efficiency and service reliability. Our lower cost manufacturing footprint allows us to offer competitive prices for our customers,
while also providing innovative, high quality and high value-added products, together with consistent and reliable service. We have historically
generated high margin organic growth based on our position as a value-added solutions provider for our customers.
| 6 | |
We
have a strong presence in the Florida market, which represents a substantial portion of our revenue stream and backlog. Our success in
Florida has primarily been achieved through sustained organic growth, with further penetration now taking place into other highly populated
areas of the United States. As part of our strategy to become a fully vertically integrated company, we have supplemented our organic
growth with some acquisitions that have allowed us added control over our supply chain allowed for further vertical integration of our
business and will act as a platform for our future expansion in the United States. Earlier acquisitions in 2016 and 2017, of ESW and
GM&P respectively, helped establish our U.S. distribution and installation capabilities, while more recent transactionsincluding
our minority interest in Vidrio Andino, our full ownership of ESMetals, and the 2025 acquisition of certain assets of Continental Glass
Systems, LLChave enhanced our vertical integration, capacity, customer reach, and backlog.
On
April 3, 2025, we completed the acquisition of certain assets and assume certain liabilities of Continental Glass Systems, LLC, a leading
provider of architectural glass and glazing solutions in the Southeast U.S., that included manufacturing equipment, intangibles, and
a strong project backlog, enhancing our U.S. presence, customer reach, and supply chain efficiency.
The
continued diversification of the groups presence and product portfolio is a core component of our strategy. In particular, we
are actively seeking to expand our presence in United States outside of Florida. We also launched a residential window offering which,
we believe, will help us expand our presence in the United States and generate additional organic growth. We believe that the quality
of our products, coupled with our ability to price competitively given our structural advantages on cost, will allow us to generate further
growth in the future.
We
have focused on working with *The Power of Quality*, always making sure that our vision of sustainability is immersed into every
aspect of our business, including social, environmental, economic and governance variables, that help us make decisions and create value
for our stakeholders. We carry out a series of initiatives based on our global sustainability strategy, which is supported on three fundamental
pillars: promoting an ethical and responsible continuous growth, leading eco-efficiency and innovation, and empowering our environment.
As part of this strategy, we have voluntarily adhered to UN Global Compact Principles since 2017 and in pursuit of our cooperation with
the attainment of the SDGs joined in 2021 a program to dynamize, strengthen and make visible the management of greenhouse gas emissions
as a carbon neutral strategy set out by the Colombian government for 2050. Additionally, we are advancing initiatives in circular economy
and implementing comprehensive water management and treatment strategies aimed at improving efficiency, reuse and replenishment, in order
to maintain our water-positive operations.
**Competitive
Strengths**
Our
success has been grounded in our ability to offer high quality products at competitive prices and with efficient lead times. We are able
to competitively price our products, while still achieving strong margins, due to a number of unique cost advantages. In addition to
our vertically integrated business model, we benefit from structural cost advantages in manufacturing and distribution due to our geographic
location. Alongside these structural advantages, we are committed to quality, product innovation and customer service. We believe these
competitive strengths create a significant barrier to entry, which is underpinned and sustained by the experience of our senior management
team and the loyalty of our highly motivated employees.
*Vertical
Integration*
We
believe we are unique within the industry in vertically integrating the purchasing of raw materials and the manufacturing, distribution,
and installation of our products. This model allows us to transform raw glass into high-performance architectural glass, extruding our
own aluminum frames and assembling windows in a highly streamlined process from our main campus in Colombia. By integrating each of these
functions, we eliminate inefficiencies throughout the supply chain, generate strong margins and maintain strict quality control from
the sourcing of input materials to final installation, enabling us to provide consistent, high-quality products with significantly shorter
lead times. These efficiencies are only enhanced as our business grows and we benefit from operating leverage and economies of scale.
Our
vertical integration is supported by a 25.8% minority ownership interest in Vidrio Andino Holdings S.A.S., a Colombia-based subsidiary
of Compagnie de Saint-Gobain S.A., which secures a reliable supply of raw glass for our production needs.
| 7 | |
In
2025, our vertically integrated business model remains a decisive factor in navigating global trade dynamics. The benefits of this integration
coupled with our decisive actions to adapt our supply chain structure, currently outweigh the challenges posed by trade barriers, such
as tariffs. Through strategic modifications to our supply chain, we have effectively mitigated the impact of these costs, while continuing
to expand our manufacturing footprint and product portfolio through increased capacity in the U.S. and the acquisition of Continental
Glass Systems (CGS). Ownership of the entire process continues to reduce our dependence on third parties, allowing us to
respond quickly to customer needs and ensuring we remain well-prepared against material shortages, logistic slowdowns, and cost inflation.
**
*Cost
of Production Advantages*
We
enjoy significant cost advantages because of our location in Colombia, which provides cost efficiencies in terms of labor for the less
automated processes, and other expenses. We believe we are able to offer competitive prices, in part, as a result of our low labor and
energy costswhile maintaining efficient transportation costs into the markets we serve. Employees at our manufacturing facilities in
Colombia earn above the local minimum wage, yet these wages are typically much less than the cost of a comparable employee located within
the United States. Over time, we may add manufacturing capacity in other locations, and intend to manage our footprint to preserve competitive
economics and reliable service. Since 2017, we have the capacity to generate approximately five megawatts of eco-friendly energy on-site
at our manufacturing facilities through solar panels. This investment has allowed us to reduce energy costs, while also having a positive
tax effect due to our ability to deduct the investment from our taxable income in compliance with applicable Colombian tax regulations.
To date, more than 15,000 solar panels have been installed on the roofs of Colombian manufacturing plants to generate reliable and clean
energy. While enhancing production cost efficiencies, along with ESG initiatives, we entered into a long-term power purchase agreement
to cogenerate 9MW through two gas engines with a heat recovery system.
*Low-Cost
Distribution*
Our
principal manufacturing facility is located in Barranquilla, Colombia, which is strategically located near three of the countrys
major ports: Barranquilla, Cartagena and Santa Marta. These ports provide us with maritime access to all major global markets. The Barranquilla
port is just 16 kilometers away from our production facility. From there, our products can be shipped to Miami in three days and New
York in one week. In addition, for short lead-time projects, our products can be transported by air from Barranquilla to Houston or Miami
within a few hours.
As
a result of the significant trade imbalance between Colombia and the United States for goods transported in container ships, we are able
to transport our products to the United States in containers that would otherwise return empty to the United States. We are therefore
able to distribute our products to the eastern, southern and western regions of the United States at very attractive rates, which are
often lower than a comparable domestic land shipment within the United States. Demand for high-specification architectural glass is typically
highest in large coastal cities, which we are able to ship directly, while most of our competitors must utilize relatively expensive
land transportation services to deliver finished goods to these sites.
*Commitment
to Quality and Innovation*
Our
commitment to quality is evidenced by our significant investments in land, warehousing space, machinery and equipment. Since 2023, we
have invested nearly $230 million in the latest technologies to enhance the efficiency and accuracy of our production lines, and ultimately
to improve the quality of the products that we deliver to our customers. We believe these significant investments position us to meet
our growth objectives over the next several years. We operate state-of-the-art glass making equipment, glass laminating lines, aluminum
presses, vinyl assembling lines, and high-volume insulating equipment which facilitate more precise manufacturing, enabling us to offer
a broader selection of and higher quality products and remain agile in responding to customer demands, while generating less raw material
waste.
| 8 | |
We
believe our investments in technology have positioned us well for continued growth in the years ahead given the flexibility afforded
by our current installed capacity, improved profitability, and enhanced cash generation. Recent examples of our high return investments
within the last three years include:
| 
| 
| 
Automation
of window assembly production lines, increasing efficiencies, labor and material waste costs with an estimated reduction of on-site
damage by 30%; | |
| 
| 
| 
| |
| 
| 
| 
Additional
aluminum expansion project to increase capacity by approximately 400 tons/month; | |
| 
| 
| 
| |
| 
| 
| 
Further
automation of additional glass lines, increasing efficiencies on an end-to-end basis reducing lead times, headcount and on-site damage
by approximately 40%; | |
| 
| 
| 
| |
| 
| 
| 
Automation
of three centralized aluminum warehouses for storing, sorting and delivering extrusion matrices and aluminum profiles to our internal
production processes that reduce lead times for the assembly of architectural systems and reduce on-site damage to materials; plus
one additional warehouse under construction; | |
| 
| 
| 
| |
| 
| 
| 
Acquiring
2.1 million square feet of land adjacent to our existing facilities for future expansion and for our sport facility complex available
to factory employees; | |
| 
| 
| 
| |
| 
| 
| 
Establishing
new vinyl window assembly lines with annualized capacity of approximately $300 million; and | |
| 
| 
| 
| |
| 
| 
| 
Completed
expansion of our architectural metal facade plant, which specializes in engineering, designing, and manufacturing tailor-made facades. | |
Our
quality assurance department maintains rigorous oversight over the production process to ensure the consistent production of high-quality
products. In addition, we adhere to quality standards that meet all guidelines and requirements for the Insulating Glass Certification
Council (IGCC) and Safety Glazing Certification Council (SGCC) certification programs.
Finally,
our commitment to quality also extends to our partnerships and alliances. Most notably, for certain products, we offer Kuraray Sentryglass.
These laminated glass interlayers are five times stronger than conventional laminating materials.
*Superior
Customer Service*
In
addition to manufacturing high quality products at competitive prices, our customer value proposition to *Imagine the Extraordinary*
is supplemented by short lead-times, on-time delivery and after-sale support. Through the coordinated efforts of our sales teams, product
specialists and field service teams, we deliver high quality service to our customers, from the initial order to the delivery and installation
of our products, when applicable. We believe our ability to accompany our clients throughout every phase of their projects design,
engineering, consulting, manufacturing and installation along with our ability to coordinate these efforts as a one-stop-shop is a key
differentiator from our competition.
| 9 | |
*High
Barriers to Entry*
The
ability of new competitors to enter the markets that we serve is limited due to the technical certifications required on high specification
building projects, such as IGCC, IqNet Icontec 14001 and ISO9001. We attribute our success, in large part, to our ability to produce
a broad range of sophisticated products, as well as our reputation for delivering high quality, made-to-order architectural glass and
building enclosures on time. Our employees have extensive training, knowledge and experience at manufacturing high specification products.
We believe the vertically-integrated nature of our operations means that there are high barriers to successfully entering our markets
and competing with us on price, quality and agility. In addition, the equipment needed to operate in the glass and window industry is
expensive, therefore requiring significant upfront capital investment.
*Loyal
and Highly Motivated Employees*
Capitalizing
on our various competitive advantages also requires a skilled and dedicated workforce. We actively encourage and facilitate the development
of our employees through rolling training programs, with multiple training sessions held every week. These programs increase the skills
of our employees and are designed to allow our employees to keep pace with the new technologies being installed at our manufacturing
facilities. We are committed to developing our employees and remaining at the forefront of technology in our industry. These investments
have also contributed to workplace safety, with our Lost Time Injury Frequency Rate (LTIFR), which measures the number of lost-time injuries
per million hours worked during the financial year, of 2.0% which is substantially lower than the average for manufacturing companies
in Colombia which stood at approximately 8.3% for 2025.
We
value our employees and invest in them and our local communities. For several decades, our Tecnoglass ES Windows Foundation has
committed resources to create projects to assist and contribute to the regions development. For many years, we have allocated
resources from the foundation to initiate and support various regional development projects. In 2025, our scholarship program
allowed over 500 students in their pursuit of higher education across different universities in Colombia. We actively partner with local educational institutions and organizations
to foster societal change and community
enhancement. Our multiple programs also include collaboration with partners to promote sports and encourage healthy lifestyles among
the youth. Our goal at the Tecnoglass ES Windows Foundation is to create positive and lasting impacts on our employees and the
communities we serve. Through our home improvement program, we acknowledge the commitment and dedication of the Tecnoglass group
employees by supporting them to enhance their homes or purchase their own, ensuring the well-being of their families. During 2025,
we delivered more than 110 housing improvements.
These
and other initiatives have allowed us to maintain a strong relationship with the communities and our employees. We continuously strive
to make a difference for our people, contributing to building a better future for the region and our country.
**Strategy**
We
have identified the following strategic priorities that we believe are important in advancing our business:
*Further
Geographic Penetration in the United States*
We
have successfully established a leading reputation in the Florida construction market by providing high value, impact-resistant architectural
glass products. Our products have become widely regarded in Florida for their quality and are certified in compliance with all U.S. regulations.
Given
advantageous secular and demographic trends, sales in Florida comprised more than 90% of United States revenue in the year ended
December 31, 2025. In recent years, we have successfully grown our geographic presence in the United States outside of Florida,
particularly into markets along the east coast, and as a result, nearly 13.1% of our U.S. backlog is for projects outside of Florida.
Coastal markets are particularly attractive to us, as they can be directly accessed by ship, resulting in transportation costs from
our manufacturing facilities that are similar to our transportation costs to Florida. These regions are also affected by hurricanes,
significant temperature fluctuations and other extreme forms of weather that foster demand for our products. We are actively
expanding our sales presence in these costal markets and have already successfully completed several projects in large U.S. markets
in the East Coast, Texas and the South West, where we have expanded our sales force and entered into leases for several showrooms
designed to showcase or products throughout these geographies
We
intend to continue growing the business organically outside of Florida. As we explore growth opportunities in new U.S. markets, we intend
to leverage the strong reputation we have developed with national commercial construction contractors, architects, and designers for
providing high quality products at the most competitive prices.
| 10 | |
In
late 2023, we strategically entered into the vinyl window market, a move that we estimate to more than double our addressable market,
while offering customers a wider selection of solutions to meet their project needs. We are capitalizing on our existing distribution
base for our aluminum products, achieving significant synergies given the significant number of dealers and distributors that already
sell both aluminum and vinyl windows. Additionally, we expect to benefit from a wider product offering in markets where vinyl frames
and windows are more prevalent. As of 2025, we are actively broadening our vinyl product portfolio and securing the necessary building
code certifications required for diverse jurisdictions. While we continue to refine our market penetration, this business line represents
a strategic growth pillar. We expect our focus on meeting stringent regulatory standards and onboarding new clients to provide a solid
foundation for increasing order flow as we expand our geographic reach.
In
the interest of satisfying our clients, we have expanded our product portfolio offer our customers a wider selection of solutions to
meet their project needs, including vinyl windows. We expect to capitalize the existing distribution base for our aluminum products to
obtain significant synergies given the number of dealers and distributors that already sell our products.
**
*Penetrate
the U.S. Residential Market*
In
addition to increasing our penetration in the U.S., we continue to seek to further expand our offerings in the U.S. To this end, in April
2017, we launched ES Windows: Elite Collection and ES Windows: Prestige Collection to target the U.S. residential
new and replacement sectors. We have received significant interest for the new products within these categories to date and positive
reactions from our customers. Currently, residential sales represent a considerable portion of our total sales, and we believe we will
continue growing into this end market in the U.S through share gains, new products and a commitment to execution. We had a significant
demand in the U.S. residential market, representing 41.0% of our total sales for the year ended December 31, 2025, compared to less than
5% for the year ended December 31, 2017, and 41.9% for the year ended December 31, 2024. Despite the current strong demand for housing
in the U.S., during 2025, the residential market faced challenges related to affordability, high interest rates, and tariff uncertainties.
However, according to FMIs 2025 Building Products Market Overview, annual spending for the residential window and door market
is expected to grow at a Compound Annual Growth rate of 6.2%, to $340 billion from 2025 to 2029. This growth is anticipated to accelerate
in 2027 and remain strong through 2029, mainly driven by high demand for energy efficient products such as vinyl. We believe that our
core strengths that have facilitated our success to date, namely the quality of our products and the structural cost advantages that
allows us to price our products competitively, will similarly contribute to our ongoing success and continued penetration into the U.S.
residential end market in order to target several other geographies. In line with the geographic penetration strategy, we have started
expanding our presence to other markets by opening product showrooms in other states. As of the date of this Annual Report, showrooms
in New York City, Charleston, SC, Houston, TX, Bonita Springs, FL and Phoenix, AZ, have been opened to service its respective regions.
Additionally, showrooms in Los Angeles, CA and Honolulu, HI are in the lease negotiating stages and we expect such showrooms to open
in late 2026.
*Continued
Investment in Technology to Meet Evolving Demands*
We
have a track record of developing innovative new products, and we intend to continue our focus on new product opportunities in the future.
We are constantly identifying shifts in global trends and customer needs and designing new products to meet those changes in demand.
In order to continue this success, it is critical that we invest in the latest technologies available in our industry. For example, with
the installation of our soft-coating facility, we became able to manufacture low emissivity glass that is energy efficient allowing us
to meet growing demand for green products.
We
operate state-of-the-art architectural glass transformation equipment, glass laminating lines, aluminum presses, vinyl assembling lines,
and high-volume insulating equipment, which facilitate more precise manufacturing and generate less raw material waste. We seek to leverage
this platform of cutting-edge equipment to adapt our products to evolving demands in both current and new markets. We expect that our
focus on innovation, which is founded upon our investments in technology, will position us well to take advantage of new opportunities.
We
have carried out enhancements at our glass and aluminum facilities to increase production capacity and automate operations. We anticipate
that these high return investments will continue generating efficiencies in the production processes. We improved efficiency in our glass
production during 2024 and 2025 by further automating certain key manufacturing processes to increase capacity, while reducing material
waste and overall lead times. In 2023, we made investments in our newly installed vinyl assembling lines to manufacture and distribute
cutting-edge vinyl windows for new and existing customers starting in November 2023. During 2024 and 2025, we completed the second phase
of expanding our architectural metal facade plant, which specializes in engineering, designing, and manufacturing tailor-made faade;
and automated another centralized aluminum warehouse for storing, sorting and delivering extrusion matrices and aluminum profiles to
our internal production processes that reduce lead times for the assembly of architectural systems and reduce on-site damage to materials.
*Rigorous
Adherence to Quality Standards*
Maintaining
the high-quality standards for which we have become known is essential to the execution of our strategy. All of our internal processes
are continually and independently supervised by Tecnoglasss Quality Assurance department. The Quality Assurance department maintains
rigorous oversight of optimization indicators covering energy, water, recyclable waste and other facets of the production process. Constant
monitoring of these indicators is integral to ensuring that we consistently produce high quality products. Approximately 5% of our production
is randomly selected to verify compliance with a variety of quality standards, such as water leaks, functionality, manufacturing, and
accessories, according to ASTM International (ASTM) and American Architectural Manufacturers Association (AAMA)
rules.
Our
quality assurance department maintains rigorous oversight over the production process to ensure the consistent production of high-quality
products. In addition, we adhere to quality standards that meet all guidelines and requirements for the Insulating Glass Certification
Council (IGCC) and Safety Glazing Certification Council (SGCC) certification programs.
These
measures allow us to effectively detect issues and take specific actions to mitigate their reoccurrence. As we grow and our use of technology
evolves, our Quality Assurance team must also evolve its tests, controls and remedies. We believe this rigorous adherence to quality
control will ensure that we will continue to provide the highest quality products and, ultimately, promote customer satisfaction.
Finally,
our commitment to quality also extends to our partnerships and alliances. Most notably, for certain products, we offer Kuraray Sentryglass.
These laminated glass interlayers are five times stronger than conventional laminating materials.

**Sales,
Marketing and Customer Service**
*Sales
and Marketing*
Our
sales strategy primarily focuses on attracting and retaining customers by consistently providing exceptional customer service, leading
product quality, and competitive pricing. Our customers also value our shorter lead times, knowledge of building code requirements and
technical expertise, which collectively generate significant customer loyalty. We primarily market our products based on product quality,
outstanding service, shorter lead times and on-time delivery.
Our
products are marketed using a combination of internal sales representatives, independent sales representatives and directly to distributors.
We believe this strategy is highly efficient for our business. Our internal sales representatives receive a portion of their performance-based
compensation based on sales and profitability metrics. Additionally, some of our sales and marketing efforts are handled by area sales
representatives who work on a commission basis.
We
do not rely on significant traditional advertising expenditures to drive net sales. We have established and maintain credibility primarily
through the strength of our products, our customer service and quality assurance, the speed at which we deliver finished products and
the attractiveness of our pricing. Our advertising expenditures consist primarily of new showrooms opening, provisions for events, and
maintaining our subsidiaries websites.
*Customer
Service*
We
believe that our ability to provide customers with outstanding service is a strong competitive differentiator. Our customer relationships
are established and maintained through the coordinated efforts of our sales and production teams. We employ a highly responsive and efficient
team of professionals devoted to addressing customer support with the goal of resolving any issue in a timely manner. In order to promote
customer loyalty and employee development, we developed an employee training program with the primary objectives of educating our staff
to be aware of client and supplier needs and familiarizing them with our strategic goals in order to improve the competitiveness, productivity
and quality of all products offered.
**Working
Capital Requirements and Debt Facilities**
During
the year ended December 31, 2025, we generated $135.7 million of cash from operating activities. We anticipate that working capital will
continue to be a net benefit to cash flow in the near future, which in addition to our current liquidity position, provides ample flexibility
to service our obligations through the next twelve months.
Our
debt is comprised primarily of a Senior Secured Credit Facility which consists of a Committed line of Credit for up to $500 million.
The term loan had a balance of $174 million as of December 31, 2025, matures in late 2030 and bears interest at SOFR plus a spread of
1.25%.
| 13 | |
**Customers**
Our
customers include architects, building owners, general contractors and glazing contractors in the commercial construction market. We
currently have approximately 1,000 customers. Of our 100 largest customers, which represent over 81% of our sales during the twelve months
ended December 31, 2025, approximately 98% are located in North America and 2% in Latin America. No single customer accounted for more
than 10% of our revenues during the years ended December 31, 2025, and 2024.
**Materials
and Suppliers**
Our
primary manufacturing materials include glass, ionoplast, polyvinyl butyral, and aluminum and vinyl extrusions. Although in some instances
we have agreements with our suppliers, these agreements are generally terminable by us or the supplier counterparties on limited notice.
Typically, all of our materials are readily available from a number of sources, and no supplier delays or shortages are anticipated.
We
source raw materials and glass necessary to manufacture our products from a variety of domestic and foreign suppliers. During the year
ended December 31, 2025, two suppliers accounted for more than 10% of total raw material purchases, and in aggregate both account for
37.3% of total raw material purchases. During the year ended December 31, 2024, two suppliers accounted for more than 10% of total raw
material purchases, and in aggregate both account for 25.1% of total raw material purchases.
**Warranties**
We
offer product warranties, which we believe are competitive for the markets in which our products are sold. The nature and extent of these
warranties depend upon the product. Our standard warranties are generally from five to ten years for architectural glass, curtain wall,
laminated and tempered glass, window and door products. Warranties are not priced or sold separately and do not provide the customer
with services or coverages in addition to the assurance that the product complies with original agreed-upon specifications. In the event
of a claim against a product for which we have received a warranty from the supplier, we transfer the claim back to the supplier.
The
cost associated with product warranties was $1.4 million and $2.6 million during the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.
**Certifications**
Among
our many designations and certifications, Tecnoglass has earned the Miami-Dade County Notice of Acceptance (NOA), one of
the most demanding certificates in the industry and a requirement to market hurricane-resistant glass in Florida. Tecnoglasss
products comply with Miami-Dade countys safety code standards as its laminated anti-hurricane glass resists impact, pressure,

**Competitors**
We
have local and international competitors that also focus on glass and aluminum transformation, window ensemble and installation and designing
in the commercial and residential construction markets. The market in the United States in which we compete is mainly comprised of manufacturers,
distributors and installers of glass curtain walls, windows and doors for commercial and residential buildings. Based on our analysis
of the IBIS World Report, we estimate that we capture between 1% and 2% of the U.S. consolidated market by revenue (manufacturing and
services), which represents an attractive opportunity for further penetration. In Colombia, we believe we are the leading producer of
high-end windows, with over 40 years of experience in the glass and aluminum structure assembly market. The industry has a few well-known
players and is mostly fragmented and comprised of small competitors. We currently compete with companies such as Viracon (a subsidiary
within the Apogee Enterprises Inc. Group), PGT, Cardinal Glass and Oldcastle Glass among others in the United States and companies such
as Vitro, Vitelco and others in the Colombia and Latin America.
The
key factors on which we and our competitors compete for business include quality, price, reputation, breadth of products and service
offerings, and production speed leading to shorter lead times. We face intense competition from both smaller and larger market players
who compete against us in our various markets including glass, window and aluminum manufacturing.
| 15 | |
The
principal methods of competition in the window and door industry are the development of long-term relationships with window and door
distributors and dealers, and the retention of customers by delivering a full range of high-quality customized products on demand with
short turnaround times while offering competitive pricing. The vertical integration of our operations, our geographic scope, low labor
costs and economies of scale have helped our subsidiaries consolidate their leading position in Colombia and bolstered their expansion
in the United States and other foreign markets.
**Government
Regulations**
We
are subject to extensive and varied federal, state, and local government regulation in the jurisdictions in which we operate, including
laws and regulations relating to zoning and density, building design and safety, hurricane and floods, construction, and similar matters.
In particular, the market for our impact-resistant windows and doors depends in large part on our ability to satisfy state and local
building codes that require protection from wind-borne debris. Additionally, certain of the jurisdictions in which we operate require
that installation of doors and windows be approved by competent authorities that grant distribution licenses. We have invested significantly
in our quality assurance department in order to maintain rigorous oversight over the production process to ensure the consistent production
of high-quality products. We have been certified in compliance with rigorous safety standards, as described in more detail in the section
titled *Certifications*.
We
are subject to laws and regulations relating to our relationships with our employees, public health and safety and fire codes. Although
our business and facilities are subject to federal, state and local environmental regulation, environmental regulation does not have
a material impact on our operations.
**Research
and Development**
During
the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023, we spent approximately $3.1 million, $2.1 million, and $0.9 million, respectively,
in research and development. The Company incurs costs related to the development of new products and pays for external tests that need
to be performed on our products in order to comply with strict building codes.
**Human
Capital**
As
of December 31, 2025, we had a total of 9,601 employees, none of whom is represented by a union. As of December 31, 2024, we had a total
of 9,837 employees. We actively encourage and facilitate the development of our employees through rolling training programs, with multiple
training sessions held on a weekly basis. These programs increase the skills of our employees and are designed to allow our employees
to keep pace with the new technologies being installed at our manufacturing facilities. We are committed to developing our employees
and remaining at the forefront of technology in our industry. These investments have also helped us manage workplace injuries, with a
Lost Time Injury Frequency Rate of 2.0%, which is considerably lower than the average rate of approximately 8.3% for glass and metal
manufacturing companies in Colombia for 2025. We have remained union-free since ESs incorporation in 1983. The Company considers
itself an equal opportunity employer and has constantly sought to seek the best talent irrespective of gender or ethnicity. While the
jobs associated to the core manufacturing operations are predominantly filled by males, our sales and administrative staff is comprised
of approximately 38% females and 62% males. From an ethnicity perspective, our labor force is diverse but predominantly Latino based
on our geographic location.
**Company
History**
We
are an exempted company incorporated under the laws of the Cayman Islands. We were incorporated in 2013 in connection with a business
combination between Tecnoglass subsidiaries TG and ES, and Andina Acquisition Corporation. TG and ES are corporations formed under the
laws of Colombia and founded in 1994 and 1983, respectively, by Jos M. Daes, our Chief Executive Officer, and Christian T. Daes,
our Chief Operating Officer.

Risk
Factors. | |
*You
should carefully consider the risks and uncertainties described below, together with the financial and other information contained in
this Annual Report on Form 10-K. Our business may also be adversely affected by risks and uncertainties not presently known to us or
that we currently believe to be immaterial. If any of the following risks, such other risks or the risks described elsewhere in this
Annual Report on Form 10-K, including in the section entitled Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition
and Results of Operations actually occur, our business, financial condition, operating results, cash flow and prospects could
be materially adversely affected. This could cause the trading price of our ordinary shares to decline.*
**Risks
Related to Our Business Operations**
**We
operate in competitive markets, and our business could suffer if we are unable to adequately address potential downward pricing pressures
and other factors that may reduce operating margins.**
The
principal markets that we serve are highly competitive. Competition is based primarily on the precision and range of achievable tolerances,
quality, price and the ability to meet delivery schedules dictated by customers. Our competition comes from companies of various sizes,
some of which have greater financial and other resources than we do and some of which have more established brand names in the markets
that we serve. We currently compete with companies such as Viracon (a subsidiary within the Apogee Enterprises Inc. Group), PGT, Cardinal
Glass and Oldcastle Glass among others in the United States and companies such as Vitro, Vitelco and others in the Colombia and Latin
America. Any of these competitors may foresee the course of market development more accurately than we will, develop products that are
superior to ours, have the ability to produce similar products at a lower cost than us or adapt more quickly than we can to new technologies
or evolving customer requirements. Increased competition could force us to lower our prices or to offer additional services at a higher
cost to us, which could reduce gross profit and net income. Accordingly, we may not be able to adequately address potential downward
pricing pressures and other factors, which may adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations.
**Failure
to maintain the performance, reliability and quality standards required by our customers could have a materially negative impact on our
financial condition and results of operation.**
If
our products or services have performance, reliability or quality problems, or products are installed with incompatible glazing materials,
we may experience additional warranty and service expenses, reduced or canceled orders, diminished pricing power, higher manufacturing
or installation costs or delays in the collection of accounts receivable. Additionally, performance, reliability, or quality claims from
our customers, with or without merit, could result in costly and time-consuming litigation that could require significant time and attention
of management and involve significant monetary damages that could negatively affect our financial results.
**The
volatility of the cost of raw materials used to produce our products could materially adversely affect our results of operations in the
future.**
The
cost of raw materials included in our products, including aluminum extrusion and polyvinyl butyral, are subject to significant fluctuations
derived from changes in price or volume. A variety of factors over which we have no control, including global demand for aluminum, fluctuations
in oil prices, speculation in commodities futures and the creation of new laminates or other products based on new technologies, impact
the cost of raw materials which we purchase for the manufacture of our products.
We
quote our prices of aluminum products based on the price of aluminum in the London Metal Exchange plus a premium, and our suppliers of
glass and polyvinyl butyral provide us with price lists that are updated annually, thus reducing the risk of changing prices for orders
in the short term. While we may attempt to minimize the risk from severe price fluctuations by entering into aluminum forward contracts
to hedge these fluctuations in the purchase price of aluminum extrusion we use in production, substantial, prolonged upward trends in
aluminum prices could significantly increase the cost of our aluminum needs and have an adverse impact on our results of operations.
If we are not able to pass on significant cost increases to our customers, our results in the future may be negatively affected by a
delay between the cost increases and price increases in our products. Accordingly, the price volatility of raw materials could adversely
affect our financial condition and results of operations in the future.
**We
depend on third-party suppliers for our raw materials and any failure of such third-party suppliers in providing raw materials could
negatively affect our ability to manufacture our products.**
Our
ability to offer a wide variety of products to our customers depends on receipt of adequate material supplies from manufacturers and
other suppliers. It is possible in the future that our competitors or other suppliers may create products based on new technologies that
are not available to us or are more effective than our products at surviving hurricane-force winds and wind-borne debris or that they
may have access to products of a similar quality at lower prices. Although in some instances we have agreements with our suppliers, these
agreements are generally terminable by us or the supplier counterparties on limited notice. We have a fixed set of maximum price rates,
and from those prices we negotiate with the supplier of the material depending on the project. We source raw materials and glass necessary
to manufacture our products from a variety of domestic and foreign suppliers. During the year ended December 31, 2025, two suppliers
accounted for more than 10% of total raw material purchases, and in aggregate both account for 37.3% of total raw material purchases.
Failures of third-party suppliers to provide raw materials to us in the future could have an adverse impact on our operating results
or our ability to manufacture our products.
**We
rely on third-party transportation, which subjects us to risks and costs that we cannot control, and which risks and costs may materially
adversely affect our operations.**
We
rely on third party trucking companies to transport raw materials to the manufacturing facilities used by each of our businesses and,
to a lesser degree, to ship finished products to customers. These transport operations are subject to various hazards and risks, including
extreme weather conditions, work stoppages and operating hazards, as well as interstate transportation regulations. In addition, the
methods of transportation we utilize may be subject to additional, more stringent and more costly regulations in the future. If we are
delayed or unable to ship finished products or unable to obtain raw materials as a result of any such new regulations or public policy
changes related to transportation safety, or these transportation companies fail to operate properly, or if there were significant changes
in the cost of these services due to new or additional regulations, or otherwise, we may not be able to arrange efficient alternatives
and timely means to obtain raw materials or ship goods, which could result in a material adverse effect on our revenues and costs of
operations. Transportation costs represent a significant part of our cost structure. If our transportation costs increased substantially,
due to prolonged increases in fuel prices or otherwise, we may not be able to control them or pass the increased costs onto customers,
and our profitability would be negatively impacted.
**We
may not realize the anticipated benefit through our joint venture with Saint-Gobain as the construction of a new plant as part of the
joint venture may not be completed as planned.**
On
May 3, 2019, we acquired an approximately 25.8% minority interest in Vidrio Andinos float glass plant in the outskirts of Bogota,
Colombia in connection with our joint venture agreement with Saint-Gobain. We believe this joint venture has solidified our vertical
integration strategy by providing us with an interest in the first stage of our production chain, while securing ample glass supply for
our expected production needs. Although our glass supply ran smoothly during 2023, we may be unable to fully realize the planned synergies
and fail to integrate some aspects of the facilitys production capacity into our manufacturing process, which may have a negative
impact on our financial condition in the future. Additionally, the joint venture agreement includes plans to build a new plant in Galapa,
Colombia that will be located approximately 20 miles from our primary manufacturing facility in which we will also have a 25.8% interest.
The new plant will be funded with the original cash contribution made by the Company, operating cash flows from the Bogota plant, and
debt incurred at the joint venture level that will not consolidate into the Company.
| 17 | |
There
can be no assurance that the anticipated joint venture cost synergies, increases in capacity or production and optimization of certain
manufacturing processes associated with the reduction of raw material waste, and supply chain synergies, including purchasing raw materials
at more advantageous prices, will be achieved, or that they might not be significantly and materially less than anticipated, or that
the completion of the joint venture with Saint-Gobain will be timely or effectively accomplished. In addition, our ability to realize
the anticipated cost synergies and production capacity increases are subject to significant business, economic and competitive uncertainties
and contingencies, many of which are beyond our control, such as changes to government regulation governing or otherwise impacting our
industry, operating difficulties, client preferences, changes in competition and general economic or industry condition.
Constructing
a new manufacturing facility involves risks, including financial, construction and governmental approval risks. If Vidrio Andinos
plant fails to produce the anticipated cash flow, if we are unable to allocate the required capital to the new plant, if we are unable
to secure the necessary permits, approvals or consents or if we are unable to enter into a contract for the construction of the plant
on suitable terms, we will fail to realize the expected benefits of the joint venture.
**The
success of our business depends, in part, on our ability to execute on our acquisition strategy, to successfully integrate acquisitions
and to retain key employees of our acquired businesses.**
A
portion of our historical growth has occurred through acquisitions, and we may enter into additional acquisitions in the future. We may
at any time be engaged in discussions or negotiations with respect to possible acquisitions, including transactions that would be significant
to us. We regularly make, and we expect to continue to make, acquisition proposals, and we may enter into letters of intent for acquisitions.
We cannot predict the timing of any contemplated transactions. To successfully finance such acquisitions, we may need to raise additional
equity capital and indebtedness, which could increase our leverage level. We cannot assure you that we will enter into definitive agreements
with respect to any contemplated transactions or that transactions contemplated by any definitive agreements will be completed on time
or at all. Our growth has placed, and will continue to place, significant demands on our management and operational and financial resources.
Acquisitions involve risks that the businesses acquired will not perform as expected and that business judgments concerning the value,
strengths and weaknesses of acquired businesses will prove incorrect.
Acquisitions
may require integration of acquired companies sales and marketing, distribution, purchasing, finance and administrative organizations,
as well as exposure to different legal and regulatory regimes in jurisdictions in which we have not previously operated. We may not be
able to successfully integrate any business we may acquire or have acquired into our existing business, and any acquired businesses may
not be profitable or as profitable as we had expected. Our inability to complete the integration of new businesses in a timely and orderly
manner could increase costs and lower profits. Factors affecting the successful integration of acquired businesses include, but are not
limited to, the following:
| 
| 
| 
We
may become liable for certain liabilities of any acquired business, whether or not known to us. These risks could include, among
others, tax liabilities, product liabilities, asbestos liabilities, environmental liabilities, pension liabilities and liabilities
for employment practices and they could be significant. | |
| 
| 
| 
| |
| 
| 
| 
Substantial
attention from our senior management and the management of the acquired business may be required, which could decrease the time that
they have to service and attract customers. | |
| 
| 
| 
| |
| 
| 
| 
The
complete integration of acquired companies depends, to a certain extent, on the full implementation of our financial systems and
policies. | |
| 
| 
| 
| |
| 
| 
| 
We
may actively pursue a number of opportunities simultaneously and we may encounter unforeseen expenses, complications and delays,
including difficulties in employing sufficient staff and maintaining operational and management oversight. | |
| 18 | |
**We
may not be able to realize the expected return on our growth and efficiency capital expenditure plan.**
In
recent years, we have made significant capital expenditures which include:
| 
| 
| 
Automation
of window assembly production lines, increasing efficiencies, labor and material waste costs with an estimated reduction of on-site
damage by 30%; | |
| 
| 
| 
| |
| 
| 
| 
Additional
aluminum expansion project to increase capacity by approximately 400 tons/month; | |
| 
| 
| 
| |
| 
| 
| 
Further
automation of additional glass lines, increasing efficiencies on an end-to-end basis reducing lead times, headcount and on-site damage
by approximately 40%; | |
| 
| 
| 
| |
| 
| 
| 
Automation
of three centralized aluminum warehouses for storing, sorting and delivering extrusion matrices and aluminum profiles to our internal
production processes that reduce lead times for the assembly of architectural systems and reduce on-site damage to materials; plus
one additional warehouse under construction; | |
| 
| 
| 
| |
| 
| 
| 
Acquiring
2.1 million square feet of land adjacent to our existing facilities for future expansion and for our sport facility complex available
to factory employees; | |
| 
| 
| 
| |
| 
| 
| 
Establishing
new vinyl window assembly lines with annualized capacity of approximately $300 million; and | |
| 
| 
| 
| |
| 
| 
| 
Completed
expansion of our architectural metal facade plant, which specializes in engineering, designing, and manufacturing tailor-made facades. | |
There
can be no assurance that the anticipated cost saving initiatives will be achieved, or that they will not be significantly and materially
less than anticipated, or that the completion of such cost savings initiatives will be effectively accomplished. In addition, our ability
to realize the anticipated cost savings are subject to significant business, economic and competitive uncertainties and contingencies,
many of which are beyond our control, such as changes to government regulation governing or otherwise impacting our industry, operating
difficulties, client preferences, changes in competition and general economic or industry condition. If we fail to realize the anticipated
cost savings it could have a negative impact on our financial position.
**Our
success depends upon our ability to develop new products and services, integrate acquired products and services and enhance existing
products and services through product development initiatives and technological advances. Any failure to make such improvements could
harm our future business and prospects.**
We
have continuing programs designed to develop new products and to enhance and improve our existing products. We are expending resources
for the development of new products in all aspects of our business, including products that can reach a broader customer base. Some of
these new products must be developed due to changes in legislative, regulatory or industry requirements or in competitive technologies
that render certain of our existing products obsolete or less competitive. The successful development of our products and product enhancements
are subject to numerous risks, both known and unknown, including unanticipated delays, access to significant capital, budget overruns,
technical problems and other difficulties that could result in the abandonment or substantial change in the design, development and commercialization
of these new products. The events could have a materially adverse impact on our results of operations.
| 19 | |
Given
the uncertainties inherent with product development and introduction, including lack of market acceptance, we cannot provide assurance
that any of our product development efforts will be successful on a timely basis or within budget, if at all. Failure to develop new
products and product enhancements on a timely basis or within budget could harm our business and prospects. In addition, we may not be
able to achieve the technological advances necessary for us to remain competitive, which could have a materially negative impact on our
financial condition.
**The
home building industry and the home repair and remodeling sector are regulated, and any increased regulatory restrictions could negatively
affect our sales and results of operations.**
The
home building industry and the home repair and remodeling sector are subject to various local, state, and federal statutes, ordinances,
rules and regulations concerning zoning, building design and safety, hurricane and floods, construction, and similar matters, including
regulations that impose restrictive zoning and density requirements in order to limit the number of homes that can be built within the
boundaries of a particular area. Increased regulatory restrictions could limit demand for new homes and home repair and remodeling products,
which could negatively affect our sales and results of operations. We may not be able to satisfy any future regulations, which consequently
could have a negative effect on our sales and results of operations.
**Changes
in building codes could lower the demand for our impact-resistant windows and doors.**
The
market for our impact-resistant windows and doors depends in large part on our ability to satisfy state and local building codes that
require protection from wind-borne debris. If the standards in such building codes are raised, we may not be able to meet such requirements,
and demand for our products could decline. Conversely, if the standards in such building codes are lowered or are not enforced in certain
areas, demand for impact-resistant products may decrease. If we are unable to satisfy future regulations, including building code standards,
it could negatively affect our sales and results of operations. Further, if states and regions that are affected by hurricanes but do
not currently have such building codes fail to adopt and enforce hurricane protection building codes, our ability to expand our business
in such markets may be limited.
**We
are subject to labor, and health and safety regulations, and may be exposed to liabilities and potential costs for lack of compliance.**
We
are subject to labor and health and safety laws and regulations that govern, among other things, the relationship between us and our
employees and the health and safety of our employees. If we are found to have violated any labor or health and safety laws, we may be
exposed to penalties and sanctions, including the payment of fines. In particular, most of our employees are hired through temporary
staffing companies and are employed under one-year fixed-term employment contracts. According to applicable labor law regarding temporary
staffing companies, if we exceed the limits for hiring temporary employees and the Colombian Ministry of Labor identifies the existence
of illegal outsourcing, sanctions may be imposed along with probable lawsuits by employees claiming the existence of a labor relationship.
Our subsidiaries could also be subject to work stoppages or closure of operations.
The
above could result in cancellation or suspension of governmental registrations, authorizations and licenses issued by other authorities,
any one of which may result in interruption or discontinuity of business, and could, consequently, materially and adversely affect our
business, financial condition or results of operation.
| 20 | |
**Equipment
failures, delays in deliveries and catastrophic loss at our manufacturing facility could lead to production curtailments or shutdowns
that prevent us from producing our products.**
An
interruption in production capabilities at any of our facilities because of equipment failure or other reasons could result in our inability
to produce our products, which would reduce our sales and earnings for the affected period. In addition, we generally manufacture our
products only after receiving the order from the customer and thus do not hold large inventories. If there is a stoppage in production
at our manufacturing facilities, even if only temporarily, or if they experience delays because of events that are beyond our control,
delivery times could be severely affected. Any significant delay in deliveries to our customers could lead to increased product returns
or cancellations and cause us to lose future sales. Our manufacturing facilities are also subject to the risk of catastrophic loss due
to unanticipated events such as fires, explosions, or violent weather conditions. If we experience plant shutdowns or periods of reduced
production because of equipment failure, delays in deliveries or catastrophic loss, it could have a material adverse effect on our results
of operations or financial condition. Further, we may not have adequate insurance to compensate for all losses that result from any of
these events.
**Our
reliance for a majority of our business on a single facility subjects us to concentrated risks.**
We
currently operate the vast majority of our business from a single production facility in Barranquilla, Colombia. Due to the lack of diversification
in our assets and geographic location, an adverse development at or impacting our facility or in local or regional economic or political
conditions could have a significantly greater impact on our results of operations and financial condition than if we maintained more
diverse assets and locations. While we implement preventative and proactive maintenance at our facility, it is possible that we could
experience prolonged periods of reduced production and increased maintenance and repair costs due to equipment failures. In addition,
because of our single facility and location, in certain cases we rely on limited or single suppliers for significant inputs, such as
electricity. We are also reliant on the adequacy of the local skilled labor force to support our operations. Supply interruptions to
or labor shortages or stoppages at our facility could be caused by any of the aforementioned factors, many of which are beyond our control,
and would adversely affect our operations and we would not have any ability to offset this concentrated impact with activities at any
alternative facilities or locations.
**Customer
concentration and related credit, commercial and legal risk may adversely impact our future earnings and cash flows.**
Our
ten largest third-party customers worldwide collectively accounted for 33.9% of our total sales revenue for the year ended December 31,
2025, though no single customer accounted for more than 10% of annual revenues. We also do not have any long-term requirements contracts
pursuant to which we would be required to fulfill customer orders on an as-needed basis.
Although
the customary terms of our arrangements with customers in Latin America and the Caribbean typically require a significant upfront payment
ranging from between 30% and 50% of the cost of an order, if a large customer were to experience financial difficulty, or file for bankruptcy
or similar protection, or if we were unable to collect amounts due from customers that are currently under bankruptcy or similar protection,
it could adversely impact our results of operations, cash flows and asset valuations. Therefore, the risk we face in doing business with
these customers may increase. Financial problems experienced by our customers could result in the impairment of our assets, a decrease
in our operating cash flows and may also reduce or curtail our customers future use of our products and services, which may have
an adverse effect on our revenues.
Disagreements
between the parties can arise as a result of the scope and nature of the relationship and ongoing negotiations. Although we do not have
any disputes with any major customers as of the date hereof that are expected to have a material adverse effect on our financial position,
results of operations or cash flows, we cannot predict whether such disputes will arise in the future.
| 21 | |
**Our
results may not match our provided guidance or the expectations of securities analysts or investors, which likely would have an adverse
effect on the market price of our securities.**
Our
results may fall below provided guidance and the expectations of securities analysts or investors in future periods. Our results may
vary depending on a number of factors, including, but not limited to, fluctuating customer demand, delay or timing of shipments, construction
delays or cancellations due to lack of financing for construction projects or market acceptance of new products. Manufacturing or operational
difficulties that may arise due to quality control, capacity utilization of our production equipment or staffing requirements may also
adversely affect annual net sales and operating results. Moreover, where we participate in fixed-price contracts for installation services,
changes in timing of construction projects or difficulties or errors in their execution caused by us or other parties, could result in
a failure to achieve expected results. In addition, competition, including new entrants into our markets, the introduction of new products
by competitors, adoption of improved technologies by competitors and competitive pressures on prices of products and services, could
adversely affect our results. Finally, our results may vary depending on raw material pricing, the potential for disruption of supply
and changes in legislation that could have an adverse impact on labor or other costs. Our failure to meet our provided guidance or the
expectations of securities analysts or investors would likely adversely affect the market price of our securities.
**If
new construction levels and repair and remodeling markets decline, such market pressures could negatively affect our results of operations.**
The
architectural glass industry is subject to the cyclical market pressures of the larger new construction and repair and remodeling markets.
In turn, these larger markets may be affected by adverse changes in economic conditions such as demographic trends, employment levels,
interest rates, commodity prices, availability of credit and consumer confidence, as well as by changing needs and trends in the markets,
such as shifts in customers preferences and architectural trends. Any future downturn or any other negative market pressures could
negatively affect our results of operations in the future, as margins may decrease as a direct result of an overall decrease in demand
for our products. Additionally, we may have idle capacity which may have a negative effect on our cost structure.
**We
may be adversely affected by disruptions to our manufacturing facilities or disruptions to our customer, supplier or employee base.**
Any
disruption to our facilities resulting from weather-related events, fire, an act of terrorism or any other cause could damage a significant
portion of our inventory, affect our distribution of products and materially impair our ability to distribute products to customers.
We could incur significantly higher costs and longer lead times associated with distributing our products to customers during the time
that it takes for us to reopen or replace a damaged facility. In addition, if there are disruptions to our customer and supplier base
or to our employees caused by weather-related events, acts of terrorism, pandemics, or any other cause, our business could be temporarily
adversely affected by higher costs for materials, increased shipping and storage costs, increased labor costs, increased absentee rates
and scheduling issues. Any interruption in the production or delivery of our supplies could reduce sales of our products and increase
costs.
**Our
business involves complex manufacturing processes that may cause personal injury or property damage, subjecting us to liabilities, possible
losses, and other disruptions of our operations in the future, which may not be covered by insurance.**
Our
business involves complex manufacturing processes. Some of these processes involve high pressures, temperatures, hot metal and other
hazards that present certain safety risks to workers employed at our manufacturing facilities. The potential exists for accidents involving
death or serious injury. Although our management is highly committed to health and safety, since January 2014, two fatalities have occurred
at our operations. The potential liability resulting from any such accident to the extent not covered by insurance could result in unexpected
cash expenditures, thereby reducing the cash available to operate our business. Such an accident could disrupt operations at any of our
facilities, which could adversely affect our ability to deliver products to our customers on a timely basis and to retain our current
business.
| 22 | |
Operating
hazards inherent in our business, some of which may be outside of our control, can cause personal injury and loss of life, damage to
or destruction of property, plant and equipment and environmental damage. We maintain insurance coverage in amounts and against the risks
we believe are consistent with industry practice, but this insurance may not be adequate or available to cover all losses or liabilities
we may incur in our operations. Our insurance policies are subject to varying levels of deductibles. Losses up to our deductible amounts
accrue based upon our estimates of the ultimate liability for claims incurred and an estimate of claims incurred but not reported. However,
liabilities subject to insurance are difficult to estimate due to unknown factors, including the severity of an injury, the determination
of our liability in proportion to other parties, the number of incidents not reported and the effectiveness of our safety programs. If
we were to experience insurance claims or costs above our estimates, we might also be required to use working capital to satisfy these
claims.
**The
nature of our business exposes each of our subsidiaries to product liability and warranty claims that, if adversely determined, could
negatively affect our financial condition and results of operations and the confidence of customers in our products.**
Our
subsidiaries are, from time to time, involved in product liability and product warranty claims relating to the products they manufacture
and distribute that, if adversely determined, could adversely affect our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows. In
addition, they may be exposed to potential claims arising from the conduct of homebuilders and home remodelers and their sub-contractors.
We may not be able to maintain insurance on acceptable terms or insurance may not provide adequate protection against potential liabilities
in the future. Product liability claims can be expensive to defend and can divert the attention of management and other personnel for
significant periods, regardless of the ultimate outcome. Claims of this nature could also have a negative impact on customer confidence
in our products and us.
**We
are subject to potential exposure to environmental liabilities and are subject to environmental regulation and any such liabilities or
regulation may negatively affect our costs and results of operations in the future.**
Our
subsidiaries are subject to various national, state and local environmental laws, ordinances and regulations that are frequently changing
and becoming more stringent. Although we believe that our facilities are materially in compliance with such laws, ordinances and regulations,
we cannot be certain that we will, at all times, be able to maintain compliance. Furthermore, as owners of real property, our subsidiaries
can be held liable for the investigation or remediation of contamination on such properties, in some circumstances, without regard to
whether we knew of or were responsible for such contamination. Remediation may be required in the future because of spills or releases
of petroleum products or hazardous substances, the discovery of unknown environmental conditions, or more stringent standards regarding
existing residual contamination. Environmental regulatory requirements may become more burdensome, increase our general and administrative
costs, the availability of construction materials, raw materials and energy, and increase the risk that our subsidiaries incur fines
or penalties or be held liable for violations of such regulatory requirements. New regulations regarding climate change may also increase
our expenses and eventually reduce our sales.
**Weather
can materially affect our business and we are subject to seasonality.**
Seasonal
changes and other weather-related conditions can adversely affect our business and operations through a decline in both the use and production
of our products and demand for our services. Adverse weather conditions, such as extended rainy and cold weather in the spring and fall,
can reduce demand for our products and reduce sales or render our distribution operations less efficient. Major weather events such as
hurricanes, tornadoes, tropical storms and heavy snows with quick rainy melts could adversely affect sales in the near term.
Construction
materials production and shipment levels follow activity in the construction industry, which typically occurs in the spring, summer and
fall. Warmer and drier weather during the second and third quarters typically result in higher activity and revenue levels during those
quarters. The first quarter typically has lower levels of activity partially due to inclement weather conditions. The activity level
during the second quarter varies greatly with variations in temperature and precipitation.

**Our
results of operations could be significantly affected by foreign currency fluctuations and currency regulations.**
We
are subject to risks relating to fluctuations in currency exchange rates that may affect our sales, cost of sales, operating margins
and cash flows. During the year ended December 31, 2025, approximately 3.2% of our revenues and 25% of our expenses were in Colombian
pesos. The remainder of our expenses and revenues were denominated, priced and realized in U.S. Dollars. In the future, and especially
as we further expand our sales in other markets, our customers may increasingly make payments in non-U.S. currencies. In addition, currency
devaluation can result in a loss to us if we hold monetary assets in that currency. Hedging foreign currencies can be difficult and costly,
especially if the currency is not actively traded. We cannot predict the effect of future exchange rate fluctuations on our operating
results.
In
addition, we are subject to risks relating to governmental regulation of foreign currency, which may limit our ability to:
| 
| 
| 
transfer
funds from or convert currencies in certain countries; | |
| 
| 
| 
| |
| 
| 
| 
repatriate
foreign currency received in excess of local currency requirements; and | |
| 
| 
| 
| |
| 
| 
| 
repatriate
funds held by foreign subsidiaries to the United States at favorable tax rates. | |
Furthermore,
the Colombian government and the Colombian Central Bank intervene in the countrys economy and occasionally make significant changes
in monetary, fiscal and regulatory policy, which may include the following measures:
| 
| 
| 
controls
on capital flows; or | |
| 
| 
| 
| |
| 
| 
| 
international
investments and exchange regime. | |
For
a more detailed description of foreign exchange regulations in Colombia, see Risk factors Risks Related to Colombia and
Other Countries Where We Operate The Colombian government and the Central Bank exercise significant influence on the Colombian
economy.
As
we continue to increase our operations in foreign countries, there is an increased risk that foreign currency controls may create difficulty
in repatriating profits from foreign countries in the form of taxes or other restrictions, which could restrict our cash flow.
**We
are dependent on certain key personnel, the loss of whom could materially affect our financial performance and prospects in the future.**
Our
continued success depends largely upon the continued services of our senior management and certain key employees. Each member of our
senior management teams has substantial experience and expertise in his or her industry and has made significant contributions to our
growth and success. However, we do not have employment agreements in place for any of our executive officers. Accordingly, we face the
risk that members of our senior management may not continue in their current positions and the loss of the services of any of these individuals
could cause us to lose customers and reduce our net sales, lead to employee morale problems and the loss of other key employees or cause
disruptions to production. In addition, we may be unable to find qualified individuals to replace any senior executive officers who leave
our employ or that of our subsidiaries.
**Members
of our management team have been, may be, or may become, involved in litigation, investigations or other proceedings. The defense or
prosecution of these matters could be time-consuming and could divert our managements attention, and may have an adverse effect
on us.**
During
the course of their careers, our officers and directors have been, may be or may in the future become involved in litigation, investigations
or other proceedings. Our officers and directors also may become involved in litigation, investigations or other proceedings involving
claims or allegations related to or as a result of their personal conduct, either in their capacity as a corporate officer or director
or otherwise, and may be personally named in such actions and potentially subject to personal liability. Any such liability may or may
not be covered by insurance and/or indemnification, depending on the facts and circumstances. The defense or prosecution of these matters
could be time-consuming. Any litigation, investigations or other proceedings and the potential outcomes of such actions may divert the
attention and resources of our officers and directors away from our operations and may negatively affect our reputation, which may adversely
impact our operations and profitability.
| 24 | |
**We
have entered into significant transactions with affiliates or other related parties, which may result in conflicts of interest.**
We
have entered into transactions with affiliates or other related parties in the past and may do so again in the future. While we believe
such transactions have been and will continue to be negotiated on an arms length basis, giving us a competitive advantage with
vertical integration, there can be no assurance that such transactions could not give rise to conflicts of interest that could adversely
affect our financial condition and results of operations.
**The
interests of our controlling shareholders could differ from the interests of our other shareholders.**
Energy
Holding Corporation exercises significant influence over us as a result of its majority shareholder position and voting rights. As of
the date of this Form 10-K, Energy Holding Corporation beneficially owned approximately 44.1% of our outstanding ordinary shares. Energy
Holding Corporation, in turn, is controlled by members of the Daes family, who together own 100% of the shares of Energy Holding Corporation.
See Principal Securityholders. Accordingly, our controlling shareholders would have considerable influence regarding the
outcome of any transaction that requires shareholder approval. In addition, if we are unable to obtain requisite approvals from Energy
Holding Corporation, we may be prevented from executing critical elements of our business strategy.
**We
conduct all of our operations through our subsidiaries and will rely on payments from our subsidiaries to meet all of our obligations
and may fail to meet our obligations if our subsidiaries are unable to make payments to us.**
We
are a holding company and derive substantially all of our operating income from our subsidiaries. All of our assets are held by our subsidiaries,
and we rely on the earnings and cash flows of our subsidiaries to meet our debt service obligations or dividend payments. The ability
of our subsidiaries to make payments to us will depend on their respective operating results and may be restricted by, among other things,
the laws of their jurisdiction of organization including Colombian foreign exchange regulations (which may limit the amount of funds
available for distributions to us), the terms of existing and future indebtedness and other agreements of our subsidiaries, including
their credit facilities, and the covenants of any future outstanding indebtedness we or our subsidiaries incur. See Risk Factors
Risks Related to Colombia and Other Countries Where We Operate The Colombian government and the Central Bank exercise
significant influence on the Colombian economy. If our subsidiaries are unable to declare dividends, our ability to meet debt
service or dividend payments may be impacted. The ability of our subsidiaries in Colombia to declare dividends up to the total amount
of their capital is not restricted by current laws, covenants in debt agreements or other agreements but could be restricted pursuant
to applicable law in the future or if our Colombian subsidiaries undergo a transformation to other types of corporate entities.
**Increasing
interest rates could materially adversely affect our ability to generate positive cashflows and secure financing required to carry out
our strategic plans**.
Historically,
portions of our debt have been indexed to variable interest rates. A variety of factors impact prevailing interest rates of which we
have no control over. A rise in interest rates could negatively impact the cost of financing for a portion of our debt with variable
interest rates which could negatively impact our cash flow generation. Furthermore, a rise in interest rates could limit our ability
to obtain financing required to support our growth through our continuing programs designed to develop new products, the expand of the
installed capacity of our manufacturing facilities and execute our acquisition strategy. While we may mitigate the risk derived from
interest rate fluctuations by entering into derivative contracts or by obtaining fixed rate financing, general increases in interest
rates would still have an impact on the cost of financing and our ability to obtain appropriate funding.
Furthermore,
the architectural glass industry is directly impacted by general construction activity trends. In turn, these markets may be affected
by adverse changes in economic conditions such as interest rates, and availability of credit. Any future downturn or any other negative
market pressures could negatively affect our results of operations in the future, as margins may decrease as a direct result of an overall
decrease in demand for our products.
| 25 | |
**Our
indebtedness could adversely affect our financial health and prevent us from fulfilling our obligations.**
As
of December 31, 2025, we and our subsidiaries on a consolidated basis had $174.4 million principal amount of debt outstanding. Our indebtedness
could have negative consequences to our financial health. For example, it could:
| 
| 
| 
make
it more difficult for us to satisfy our obligations with respect to the notes of our other debt; | |
| 
| 
| 
| |
| 
| 
| 
increase
our vulnerability to general adverse economic and industry conditions or a downturn in our business; | |
| 
| 
| 
require
us to dedicate a portion of our cash flow from operations to debt service, thereby reducing the availability of our cash flow to
fund working capital, capital expenditures and other general corporate purposes; | |
| 
| 
| 
| |
| 
| 
| 
limit
our flexibility in planning for, or reacting to, changes in our business and the industry in which we operate; | |
| 
| 
| 
| |
| 
| 
| 
place
us at a competitive disadvantage compared to our competitors that are not as highly leveraged; | |
| 
| 
| 
| |
| 
| 
| 
limit,
along with the financial and other restrictive covenants in our indebtedness, among other things, our ability to borrow additional
funds; and | |
| 
| 
| 
| |
| 
| 
| 
result
in an event of default if we fail to satisfy our obligations under the notes or our other debt or fail to comply with the financial
and other restrictive covenants contained in the indenture or our other debt instruments, which event of default could result in
all of our debt becoming immediately due and payable and could permit certain of our lenders to foreclose on our assets securing
such debt. | |
Any
of the above listed factors could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. Further,
the terms of our existing debt agreements do not, and any future debt may not, fully prohibit us from incurring additional debt. If new
debt is added to our current debt levels, the related risks that we now face could intensify.
**Risks
Related to Colombia and Other Countries Where We Operate**
**Our
operations are located in Colombia, which may make it more difficult for U.S. investors to understand and predict how changing market
and economic conditions will affect our financial results.**
Our
operations are located in Colombia and, consequently, are subject to the economic, political and tax conditions prevalent in that country.
The economic conditions in Colombia are subject to different growth expectations, market weaknesses and business practices than economic
conditions in the U.S. market. We may not be able to predict how changing market conditions in Colombia will affect our financial results.
During
2025, Moodys, S&P and Fitch, three of the main rating agencies worldwide, downgraded Colombias credit profile due to
weakening public finances, with Moodys lowering its rating to Baa3 while keeping a stable outlook as fiscal metrics
deteriorated beyond original plans, S&P cutting its sovereign rating to BB with a negative look, and Fitch also downgrading
the long-term foreign currency rating to BB amid persistently large fiscal deficits, rising public debt and challenges
in fiscal consolidation, mirroring market concerns over the countrys fiscal trajectory even as moderate growth continued and inflation
pressures eased during the year. Colombias macroeconomic performance in 2025 showed a moderation in growth and inflation dynamics.
Official data and projections indicate the countrys GDP is expected to increase around 2%-3%, while inflation closed at 5.1%,
above the central banks 3% target, and similar to the 5.2% inflation rate of 2024. In addition, Colombias central bank
(Banco de la Repblica) is maintaining a restrictive monetary stance, raising its monetary policy interest rate 100 basis points
to 10.25%, largely due to strong internal demand and cost pressures including significant labor cost increases from a higher minimum
wage declared for 2026.
Colombias
economy, just like most of Latin-American countries, continues suffering from the effects of high volatility in commodity prices, mainly
oil, reflected in its elevated level of external debt. Even though the country has taken measures to stabilize the economy, it is uncertain
how will these measures be perceived and if the intended goal of increasing investors confidence will be achieved.
| 26 | |
**Economic
and political conditions in Colombia may have an adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations.**
Our
financial condition and results of operations depend significantly on macroeconomic and political conditions prevailing in Colombia.
Decreases in the growth rate, periods of negative growth, increases in inflation, changes in law, regulation, policy, or future judicial
rulings and interpretations of policies involving exchange controls and other matters such as (but not limited to) currency depreciation,
foreign exchange regulations, inflation, interest rates, taxation, employment and labor laws, banking laws and regulations and other
political or economic developments in or affecting Colombia may affect the overall business environment and may, in turn, adversely impact
our financial condition and results of operations in the future. Colombias fiscal deficit and growing public debt could adversely
affect the Colombian economy. See Disclosure Regarding Foreign Exchange Rates in Colombia and Risk Factors 
Risks Related to Colombia and Other Countries Where We Operate The Colombian government and the Central Bank exercise significant
influence on the Colombian economy.
The
Colombian government frequently intervenes in Colombias economy and from time to time makes significant changes in monetary, fiscal
and regulatory policy. Our business and results of operations or financial condition may be adversely affected by changes in government
or fiscal policies, and other political, diplomatic, social, and economic developments that may affect Colombia. We cannot predict what
policies the Colombian government will adopt and whether those policies would have a negative impact on the Colombian economy or on our
business and financial performance in the future. We cannot assure you as to whether current stability in the Colombian economy will
be sustained. If the conditions of the Colombian economy were to deteriorate, our financial conditions and results of operations would
be adversely affected.
The
Colombian government has historically exercised substantial influence on the local economy, and governmental policies are likely to continue
to have an important effect on companies operating in Colombia like our Colombian subsidiaries, market conditions and the prices of the
securities of local issuers. The President of Colombia has considerable power to determine governmental policies and actions relating
to the economy and may adopt policies that may negatively affect us. We cannot predict which policies will be adopted by the new government
and whether those policies would have a negative impact on the Colombian economy in which we operate or our business and financial performance.
In
2026, Colombia will hold national elections, including Congressional elections on March 8, 2026 and the first round of presidential elections
on May 31, 2026. We cannot assure you that measures adopted by the Colombian government under its new regime continue to be consistent
with former policy and will not affect the countrys overall economic outlook and performance. The new leadership may have negative
effects on macroeconomic stability and therefore on the construction industry as a whole and finally, on the companys operations
and future prospects. Recent events also underscore the potential for policy volatility and legal uncertainty: in January 2026, Colombias
Constitutional Court provisionally suspended Decree 1390 of December 22, 2025, which declared a state of economic and social emergency,
pending a final decision on its constitutionality, and any similar measureswhether adopted, modified, suspended or invalidatedcould
create uncertainty and impact economic conditions relevant to our business. Although we dont estimate a significant effect in
the short term based on current backlog and ongoing activity, it is uncertain as to how a new regime could affect our business in the
longer term. In addition, we cannot predict the effects that such policies will have on the Colombian economy. Furthermore, we cannot
assure you that the Colombian peso will not depreciate relative to the US dollar or other currencies in the future, which could have
a materially adverse effect on our financial condition.
**The
Colombian Government and the Central Bank exercise significant influence on the Colombian economy.**
Although
the Colombian government has not imposed foreign exchange restrictions since 1990, Colombias foreign currency markets have historically
been extremely regulated. Colombian law permits the Central Bank to impose foreign exchange controls to regulate the remittance of dividends
and/or foreign investments in the event that the foreign currency reserves of the Central Bank fall below a level equal to the value
of three months of imports of goods and services into Colombia. An intervention that precludes our Colombian subsidiaries from possessing,
utilizing or remitting U.S. Dollars would impair our financial condition and results of operations, and would impair the Colombian subsidiarys
ability to convert any dividend payments to U.S. Dollars.
The
Colombian government and the Central Bank may also seek to implement new policies aimed at controlling further fluctuation of the Colombian
peso against the U.S. Dollar and fostering domestic price stability. The Central Bank may impose certain mandatory deposit requirements
in connection with foreign-currency denominated loans obtained by Colombian residents, including TG and ES. We cannot predict or control
future actions by the Central Bank in respect of such deposit requirements, which may involve the establishment of a different mandatory
deposit percentage. The U.S. Dollar/Colombian peso exchange rate has shown some instability in recent years. Please see Disclosure
Regarding Foreign Exchange Controls and Exchange Rates in Colombia for actions the Central Bank could take to intervene in the
exchange market.
| 27 | |
The
Colombian Government has considerable power to shape the Colombian economy and, consequently, affect the operations and financial performance
of businesses. The Colombian Government may seek to implement new policies aimed at controlling further fluctuation of the Colombian
peso against the U.S. Dollar and fostering domestic price stability. The president of Colombia has considerable power to determine governmental
policies and actions relating to the economy and may adopt policies that are inconsistent with those of the prior government or that
negatively affect us.
**Factors
such as Colombias growing public debt and fluctuating exchange rates could adversely affect the Colombian economy.**
Colombias
fiscal deficit and growing public debt could adversely affect the Colombian economy. During 2024, Colombias fiscal deficit represented
6.8% of its GDP, related to increased government spending to fund new social and environmental reforms, and lower expected tax collections
during the year. in 2025 the deficit widened even further, driven by sustained high spending and weaker revenues, with estimates suggesting
Colombias fiscal deficit could reach around 7.1% of GDP, its highest level outside the pandemic era, even as tax revenue projections
were revised and the statutory fiscal rule was suspended to accommodate larger deficits. This persistent and growing fiscal gap has added
pressure on sovereign credit profiles, contributed to credit rating downgrades and could lead to higher interest rates on new Colombian
sovereign debt issuances.
In
recent years, the Colombian currency had shown some short-term volatility vis--vis the U.S. Dollar. The Colombian Peso appreciated
14.8% in 2025, after a 15.4% depreciation during 2024. Any international conflicts or related events have the potential to create an
exchange mismatch, given the vulnerability and dependence of the Colombian economy on external financing and its vulnerability to any
disruption in its external capital flows and its trade balance.
We
cannot assure you that any measures taken by the Colombian government and the Central Bank would be sufficient to control any resulting
fiscal or exchange imbalances. Any further disruption in Colombias fiscal and trade balance may therefore cause Colombias
economy to deteriorate and adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.
**Economic
instability in Colombia could negatively affect our ability to sell our products.**
A
significant decline in economic growth of any of Colombias major trading partners - in particular, the United States, China, and
Mexico - could have a material adverse effect on each countrys balance of trade and economic growth. In addition, a contagion
effect, where an entire region or class of investments becomes less attractive to, or subject to outflows of funds by, international
investors could negatively affect the Colombian economy.
Even
though exports from Colombia, principally petroleum and petroleum products, and gold, have grown in recent years, fluctuations in commodity
prices pose a significant challenge to their contribution to the countrys balance of payments and fiscal revenues. Unemployment
continues to be high in Colombia compared to other economies in Latin America. Furthermore, recent political and economic actions in
the Latin American region, including actions taken by United States in relation to the Venezuelan government, may negatively affect international
investor perception of the region. We cannot assure you that growth achieved over the past decade by the Colombian economy will continue
in future periods. The long-term effects of the global economic and financial crisis on the international financial system remain uncertain.
In addition, the effect on consumer confidence of any actual or perceived deterioration of household incomes in the Colombian economy
may have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and financial condition.
| 28 | |
**We
are dependent on sales to customers outside Colombia and any failure to make these sales may adversely affect our operating results in
the future.**
In
the year ended December 31, 2025, 96.8% of our sales were to customers outside Colombia, including to the United States and Panama, and
we expect sales into the United States and other foreign markets to continue to represent a significant portion of our net sales. Foreign
sales and operations are subject to changes in local government regulations and policies, including those related to tariffs and trade
barriers, investments, property ownership rights, taxation, exchange controls and repatriation of earnings. An increase in tariffs on
products shipped to countries like the United States, or changes in the relative values of currencies occur from time to time and could
affect our operating results. This risk and the other risks inherent in foreign sales and operations could adversely affect our operating
results in the future.
**Our
business could be negatively impacted by potential tariffs imposed by the U.S government and trade tensions between the U.S. and Colombia.**
****
The
United States has imposed import tariffs on certain steel and aluminum articles under Section 232 of the Trade Expansion Act of 1962,
and these measures have been adjusted over time through proclamations and related administrative actions (including changes to product
coverage, rates, exclusions and enforcement). In addition, on April 2, 2025, the President issued Executive Order 14257, which directed
that imported articles be subject to an additional 10% ad valorem duty pursuant to a declared national emergency under the International
Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA), with specified effective dates. Multiple lawsuits have challenged the Presidents authority
to impose tariffs under IEEPA and stays and ongoing appeals have contributed to uncertainty regarding the ultimate outcome and any related
changes to scope, duration, or potential refunds. The adoption, modification or escalation of these or other tariff regimes, as well
as retaliatory measures by other countries, could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.
Given
that our primary manufacturing facilities are located in Colombia and approximately 94.8% of our sales for the fiscal year ended December
31, 2025, were generated in the United States, these tariffs directly increase our costs and may pressure our profit margins.
In
response to these trade barriers, we have strategically shifted our supply chain to source U.S.-casted aluminum, which has allowed us
to mitigate a portion of the financial impact. However, despite these mitigation efforts, any further escalation in tariff rates, the
potential removal of U.S.-Colombia Trade Promotion Agreement benefits, or retaliatory measures by the Colombian government could still
disrupt our supply chain and reduce our price competitiveness. Such developments could have a material adverse effect on our financial
condition and results of operations.
**We
are subject to trade investigations conducted by U.S. authorities over Colombian products that may result in additional duties for our
products.**
In
2024 a coalition of U.S. producers of aluminum extrusions filed a petition with U.S. trade authorities requesting the imposition of anti-dumping
duties against imports of aluminum extrusions from Colombia. As we are the main extruder of aluminum in Colombia, we volunteered as a
mandatory respondent in the investigation and provided certain requested information. As a result of this investigation, imports of some
of our goods which are considered subject merchandise were subject to anti-dumping duties, until the International Trade Commission concluded
in October 21, 2024 that American Aluminum producers were not being harmed and revoked said anti-dumping duty which as of today remain
in zero.
If
such an anti-dumping measure were to be imposed, it might adversely impact our results of operations
**We
are subject to regional and national economic conditions in the United States.**
The
economy in Florida and throughout the United States could negatively impact demand for our products as it has in the past, and macroeconomic
forces such as employment rates and the availability of credit could have an adverse effect on our sales and results of operations. Our
U.S. business is concentrated geographically in Florida, which optimizes manufacturing efficiencies and logistics, but further concentrates
our business, and another prolonged decline in the economy of the state of Florida or of nearby coastal regions, a change in state and
local building code requirements for hurricane protection, or any other adverse condition in the state or certain coastal regions, could
cause a decline in the demand for our products, which could have an adverse impact on our sales and results of operations. Our strategy
of continued geographic diversification seeks to reduce our exposure to such region-specific risks.
| 29 | |
**Armed
conflicts around the globe, including sanctions and tensions between United States, NATO allies and several eastern countries, may adversely
affect the results of our operations.**
Armed
conflicts around the globe, including sanctions and heightened geopolitical tensions involving the United States, NATO allies and other
countries, may adversely affect the results of our operations.
The
Russian invasion of Ukraine starting in February 2022 has contributed to elevated global tensions and the imposition of economic sanctions
and trade restrictions between the United States, the European Union and other countries.
In
addition, attacks and security threats in and around the Red Sea associated with Yemens Houthi group, and related military tensions
involving the United States and certain allies, have disrupted maritime trade and affected shipping patterns for certain carriers, including
through the Suez Canal corridor, resulting in rerouting, longer transit times and increased freight costs in certain periods.
These
measures, together with broader conflict-related uncertainty, can lead to severe constraints on global supply chains, raw material price
increases and shortages, and higher energy costs. Disruptions in global supply chains can adversely affect our ability to manufacture
and deliver products to our customers. Additionally, fluctuating foreign currency exchange rates could impact on the profitability of
our foreign subsidiaries which are at the core of our business.
Geopolitical
instability in the Americas may also increase regional volatility. On January 3, 2026, U.S. forces captured Venezuelan President Nicols
Maduro in a military operation, which has heightened uncertainty regarding regional stability, diplomatic relations and sanctions policy.
**Colombia
has experienced and continues to experience internal security issues that have had or could have a negative effect on the Colombian economy
and our financial condition.**
Colombia
has experienced, and continues to experience, internal security challenges that could adversely affect the Colombian economy and our
business, results of operations and financial condition. These challenges include the activities of illegal armed groupsincluding
the National Liberation Army (ELN), dissident factions formerly associated with the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia (FARC), paramilitary
successor groups and criminal organizations involved in narcotraffickingwhich in certain regions engage in intimidation, extortion,
and attacks that can disrupt commerce, transportation and governmental presence. Although Colombia has implemented peace and related
security initiatives over time, violence and criminal activity persist and may escalate, and the governments evolving security
strategy may affect operating conditions for businesses in Colombia. Any deterioration in security conditions could negatively affect
demand in the construction industry, the safety and availability of our employees and contractors, our logistics and supply chain, and
overall economic and foreign-exchange stability in Colombia.
Despite
efforts by the Colombian government, drug-related crime, guerrilla paramilitary activity and criminal bands continue to exist in Colombia,
and allegations have surfaced regarding members of the Colombian congress and other government officials having ties to guerilla and
paramilitary groups. Although the Colombian government and ELN have been in talks since February 2017 to end a five-decade war, the Colombian
government has suspended the negotiations after a series of rebel attacks. This situation could result in escalated violence by the ELN
and may have a negative impact on the credibility of the Colombian government which could in turn have a negative impact on the Colombian
economy.
**Tensions
with neighboring countries, including Venezuela and other Latin American countries, may affect the Colombian economy and, consequently,
our results of operations and financial condition in the future.**
Diplomatic
relations with Venezuela and other neighboring countries have from time to time been tense, including due to developments along Colombias
border with Venezuela. Political and diplomatic uncertainty in Venezuela increased following the countrys presidential election
held on July 28, 2024, which produced disputed results and mixed international recognition. In addition, on January 3, 2026, U.S. forces
captured Venezuelan President Nicols Maduro in a military operation, which has contributed to heightened regional uncertainty
and could affect diplomatic relations, sanctions policy, cross-border commerce, and overall economic conditions in the region. Moreover,
in November 2012, the International Court of Justice placed a sizeable area of the Caribbean Sea within Nicaraguas exclusive economic
zone. As of the date of this Annual Report, Colombia continues to deem this area as part of its own exclusive economic zone. Any future
deterioration in relations with Venezuela and Nicaragua may result in the closing of borders, risk of financial condition.
**Government
policies and actions and judicial decisions in Colombia could significantly affect the local economy and, as a result, our results of
operations and financial condition in the future.**
Our
results of operations and financial condition may be adversely affected by changes in Colombian governmental policies and actions and
judicial decisions involving a broad range of matters, including interest rates, exchange rates, exchange controls, inflation rates,
taxation, banking and pension fund regulations and other political or economic developments affecting Colombia. The Colombian government
has historically exercised substantial influence over the economy, and its policies are likely to continue to have a significant effect
on Colombian companies, including our subsidiaries. The President of Colombia has considerable power to determine governmental policies
and actions relating to the economy and may adopt policies that negatively affect our subsidiaries. Future governmental policies and
actions, or judicial decisions, could adversely affect our results of operations or financial condition.
**We
are subject to money laundering and terrorism financing risks.**
Third
parties may use us as a conduit for money laundering or terrorism financing. If we were to be associated with money laundering (including
illegal cash operations) or terrorism financing, our reputation could suffer, or we could be subject to legal enforcement (including
being added to blacklists that would prohibit certain parties from engaging in transactions with us). Our Colombian subsidiaries
could also be sanctioned pursuant to criminal anti-money laundering rules in Colombia.
We
have adopted a Code of Conduct, Compliance Manual which includes policies and procedures and help surveil and control our activities
and a hotline to receive anonymous reports. However, such measures, procedures and compliance may not be completely effective in preventing
third parties from using us as a conduit for money laundering or terrorism financing without our knowledge, which could have a material
adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
| 30 | |
**Changes
in Colombias customs, import and export laws and foreign policy, may have an adverse effect on our financial condition and results
of operations.**
Our
business depends significantly on Colombias customs and foreign exchange laws and regulations, including import and export laws,
as well as on fiscal and foreign policies. In the past we have benefited from, and now currently benefit from, certain customs and tax
benefits granted by Colombian laws, such as free trade zones and Plan Vallejo which incentivizes the import of machinery and equipment
by providing tax breaks, as well as from Colombian foreign policy, such as free trade agreements with countries like the United States.
As a result, our business and results of operations or financial condition may be adversely affected by changes in government or fiscal
policies, foreign policy or customs and foreign exchange laws and regulations. We cannot predict what policies the Colombian government
will adopt and whether those policies would have a negative impact on the Colombian economy or on our business and financial performance
in the future.
**It
may be difficult or impossible to enforce judgments of courts of the United States and other jurisdictions against our Colombian subsidiaries
or any of their directors, officers and controlling persons.**
Most
of our assets are located in Colombia. As such, it may be difficult or impossible for you to effect service of process on, or to enforce
judgments of United States courts against our Colombian subsidiaries and/or against their directors and officers based on the civil liability
provisions of the U.S. federal securities laws.
Colombian
courts will enforce a U.S. judgment predicated on the U.S. securities laws through a procedural system known under Colombian law as *exequatur*.
Colombian courts will enforce a foreign judgment, without reconsideration of the merits, only if the judgment satisfies the requirements
set out in Articles 605 through 607 of Law 1564 of 2012, or the Colombian General Code of Procedure (*Cdigo General del Proceso*),
which provides that the foreign judgment will be enforced if certain conditions are met.
**New
or higher taxes resulting from changes in tax regulations or the interpretation thereof in Colombia could adversely affect our results
of operations and financial condition in the future.**
New
tax laws and regulations, and uncertainties with respect to future tax policies pose risks to us. In recent years, the Colombian Congress
approved different tax reforms imposing additional taxes and enacted modifications to existing taxes related to financial transactions,
dividends, income, value added tax (VAT), and taxes on net worth.
On
December 13, 2022, a tax reform was enacted by means of Law 2277, which maintained corporate income tax rate at 35%, and increased income
taxes to Free Trade Zones with single enterprise users and non-exporters, from 20% to 35%. We cannot predict whether Colombia will adopt
additional tax reforms, surcharges, or other fiscal measures in the future, or how any such measures may be interpreted or applied to
us, any of which could materially adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition.
Changes
in tax-related laws and regulations, and interpretations thereof, can create additional tax burdens on us and our businesses by increasing
tax rates and fees, creating new taxes, limiting tax deductions, and/or eliminating tax-based incentives and non-taxed income. In addition,
tax authorities and competent courts may interpret tax regulations differently than us, which could result in tax litigation and associated
costs and penalties in part due to the novelty and complexity of new regulation.
Beyond
taxation, regulatory changes to labor laws in Colombia may also impact our cost structure. A new labor reform, passed on October 17,
2024, introduced changes to night and weekend pay, including an earlier start for nightly surcharges and increased extra pay for these
shifts. Additionally, the ongoing phased reduction of the workweek, which is set to reach 42 hours by 2026, may further impact labor
costs. These changes could increase our operational expenses and affect profitability and workforce management.
As
regulatory environments evolve, new or heightened financial and operational obligations could materially and adversely affect our business.

**We
are subject to various U.S. export controls and trade and economic sanctions laws and regulations that could impair our ability to compete
in international markets and subject us to liability if we are not in full compliance with applicable laws.**
Our
business activities are subject to various U.S. export controls and trade and economic sanctions laws and regulations, including, without
limitation, the U.S. Commerce Departments Export Administration Regulations and the U.S. Treasury Departments Office of
Foreign Assets Controls (OFAC) trade and economic sanctions programs (collectively, Trade Controls).
Such Trade Controls may prohibit or restrict our ability to, directly or indirectly, conduct activities or dealings in or with certain
countries that are the subject of comprehensive embargoes (presently, Cuba, Iran, North Korea, Syria, and the Crimea region of Ukraine
(collectively, Sanctioned Countries)), as well as with individuals or entities that are the target of Trade Controls-related
prohibitions and restrictions (collectively, Sanctioned Parties).
Although
we have implemented compliance measures designed to prevent transactions with Sanctioned Countries and Sanctioned Parties, our failure
to successfully comply with applicable Trade Controls may expose us to negative legal and business consequences, including civil or criminal
penalties, government investigations, and reputational harm.
**Natural
disasters in Colombia could disrupt our business and affect our results of operations and financial condition in the future.**
Our
operations are exposed to natural disasters and extreme weather events in Colombia, such as earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, floods,
landslides, tornadoes, tropical storms and hurricanes. Climate variability, including El Nio and La Nia conditions, can
contribute to higher temperatures and reduced rainfall (or, in La Nia periods, heavier rainfall), which may increase the risk
of droughts, water restrictions, floods, landslides, wildfires, or other natural disasters on an equal or greater scale in the future.
Because Colombias electricity generation relies heavily on hydropower, drought conditions may increase the risk of higher electricity
costs or supply constraints. In the event of a natural disaster, our disaster recovery plans may prove to be ineffective, which could
have a material adverse effect on our ability to conduct our businesses. In addition, if a significant number of our employees and senior
managers were unavailable because of a natural disaster, our ability to conduct our businesses could be compromised. Natural disasters
or similar events could also result in substantial volatility in our results of operations for any fiscal quarter or year.
**Risks
Related to Us and Our Securities**
**Because
we are incorporated under the laws of the Cayman Islands, you may face difficulties in protecting your interests, and your ability to
protect your rights through the U.S. Federal courts may be limited.**
We
are a company incorporated under the laws of the Cayman Islands, and substantially all of our assets are located outside the United States.
In addition, a majority of our directors and officers are nationals or residents of jurisdictions other than the United States and all
or substantial portions of their assets are located outside the United States. As a result, it may be difficult for investors to effect
service of process within the United States upon our directors or executive officers, or enforce judgments obtained in the United States
courts against our directors or officers.
Our
corporate affairs are governed by our third amended and restated memorandum and articles of association, the Companies Law (2018 Revision)
of the Cayman Islands (as the same may be supplemented or amended from time to time) and the common law of the Cayman Islands. The rights
of shareholders to take action against the directors, actions by minority shareholders and the fiduciary responsibilities of our directors
to us under Cayman Islands law are largely governed by the common law of the Cayman Islands. The common law of the Cayman Islands is
derived in part from comparatively limited judicial precedent in the Cayman Islands as well as from English common law, the decisions
of whose courts are of persuasive authority, but are not binding on a court in the Cayman Islands. The rights of our shareholders and
the fiduciary responsibilities of our directors under Cayman Islands law are different from what they would be under statutes or judicial
precedent in some jurisdictions in the United States. In particular, the Cayman Islands has a different body of securities laws as compared
to the United States, and certain states, such as Delaware, may have more fully developed and judicially interpreted bodies of corporate
law. In addition, Cayman Islands companies may not have standing to initiate a shareholders derivative action in a Federal court
of the United States.
| 32 | |
We
have been advised that the courts of the Cayman Islands are unlikely (i) to recognize or enforce against us judgments of courts of the
United States predicated upon the civil liability provisions of the securities laws of the United States or any State; and (ii) in original
actions brought in the Cayman Islands, to impose liabilities against us predicated upon the civil liability provisions of the securities
laws of the United States or any State, so far as the liabilities imposed by those provisions are penal in nature. In those circumstances,
although there is no statutory enforcement in the Cayman Islands of judgments obtained in the United States, the courts of the Cayman
Islands will recognize and enforce a foreign money judgment of a foreign court of competent jurisdiction without retrial on the merits
based on the principle that a judgment of a competent foreign court imposes upon the judgment debtor an obligation to pay the sum for
which judgment has been given provided certain conditions are met. For a foreign judgment to be enforced in the Cayman Islands, such
judgment must be final and conclusive and for a liquidated sum, and must not be in respect of taxes or a fine or penalty, inconsistent
with a Cayman Islands judgment in respect of the same matter, impeachable on the grounds of fraud or obtained in a manner, and or be
of a kind the enforcement of which is, contrary to natural justice or the public policy of the Cayman Islands (awards of punitive or
multiple damages may well be held to be contrary to public policy). A Cayman Islands Court may stay enforcement proceedings if concurrent
proceedings are being brought elsewhere. There is recent Privy Council authority (which is binding on the Cayman Islands Court) in the
context of a reorganization plan approved by the New York Bankruptcy Court which suggests that due to the universal nature of bankruptcy/insolvency
proceedings, foreign money judgments obtained in foreign bankruptcy/insolvency proceedings may be enforced without applying the principles
outlined above. However, a more recent English Supreme Court authority (which is highly persuasive but not binding on the Cayman Islands
Court), has expressly rejected that approach in the context of a default judgment obtained in an adversary proceeding brought in the
New York Bankruptcy Court by the receivers of the bankruptcy debtor against a third party, and which would not have been enforceable
upon the application of the traditional common law principles summarized above and held that foreign money judgments obtained in bankruptcy/insolvency
proceedings should be enforced by applying the principles set out above, and not by the simple exercise of the Courts discretion.
Those cases have now been considered by the Cayman Islands Court. The Cayman Islands Court was not asked to consider the specific question
of whether a judgment of a bankruptcy court in an adversary proceeding would be enforceable in the Cayman Islands, but it did endorse
the need for active assistance of overseas bankruptcy proceedings. We understand that the Cayman Islands Courts decision in that
case has been appealed and it remains the case that the law regarding the enforcement of bankruptcy/insolvency related judgments is still
in a state of uncertainty.
**If
we fail to maintain proper and effective internal controls, our ability to produce accurate financial statements could be impaired, which
could adversely affect our business.**
Our
financial reporting obligations as a public company place a significant strain on our management, operational and financial resources,
and systems. We may not be able to implement effective internal controls and procedures to detect and prevent errors in our financial
reports, file our financial reports on a timely basis in compliance with SEC requirements, or prevent and detect fraud. Our management
may not be able to respond adequately to changing regulatory compliance and reporting requirements. If we are not able to adequately
implement the requirements of Section 404, we may not be able to assess whether internal controls over financial reporting are effective,
which may subject us to adverse regulatory consequences and could harm investor confidence, the market price of our ordinary shares and
our ability to raise additional capital.
**Anti-takeover
provisions in our organizational documents and Cayman Islands law may discourage or prevent a change of control, even if an acquisition
would be beneficial to our shareholders, which could depress the price of our ordinary shares and prevent attempts by our shareholders
to replace or remove our current management.**
Our
memorandum and articles of association contain provisions that may discourage unsolicited takeover proposals that shareholders may consider
to be in their best interests. Our board of directors is divided into three classes with staggered, three-year terms. Our board of directors
has the ability to designate the terms of and issue preferred shares without shareholder approval. We are also subject to certain provisions
under Cayman Islands law that could delay or prevent a change of control. Together these provisions may make more difficult the removal
of management and may discourage transactions that otherwise could involve payment of a premium over prevailing market prices for our
ordinary shares.
**We
cannot assure you that we will continue to pay dividends on our ordinary shares, and our indebtedness, future investments or cashflow
generation could limit our ability to continue to pay dividends on our ordinary shares.**
Prior
to August 2016, we had not paid any dividends on our ordinary shares. Since such time, we have paid regular quarterly dividends. However,
the payment of dividends in the future, if any, will be contingent upon our revenues and earnings, if any, capital requirements and our
general financial condition and limitations imposed by our outstanding indebtedness.
| 33 | |
**If
securities analysts do not publish research or reports about our business or if they downgrade our stock or our sector, our stock price
and trading volume could decline.**
The
trading market for our ordinary shares relies in part on the research and reports that industry or financial analysts publish about us
or our business. We do not control these analysts. Furthermore, if one or more of the analysts who do cover us downgrade our stock or
our industry, or the stock of any of our competitors, or publish inaccurate or unfavorable research about our business, the price of
our stock could decline. If one or more of these analysts ceases coverage of us or fail to publish reports on us regularly, we could
lose visibility in the market, which in turn could cause our stock price or trading volume to decline.
**If
a United States person is treated as owning at least 10% of the value or voting power of our shares, such holder may be subject to adverse
U.S. federal income tax consequences.**
If
a United States person is treated as owning (directly, indirectly or constructively) at least 10% of the value or voting power of our
shares, such person may be treated as a United States shareholder with respect to each controlled foreign corporation
in our group (if any). While our parent company owns one or more U.S. subsidiaries, we, and certain of our non-U.S. subsidiaries, could
be treated as controlled foreign corporations. Furthermore, while our group includes one or more U.S. subsidiaries, certain of our non-U.S.
subsidiaries could be treated as controlled foreign corporations (regardless of whether or not we are treated as a controlled foreign
corporation). A United States shareholder of a controlled foreign corporation generally is required to report annually and include in
its U.S. taxable income its pro rata share of Subpart F income, global intangible low-taxed income and investments
in U.S. property by controlled foreign corporations, regardless of whether we make any such United States shareholder receives any actual
distributions. An individual that is a United States shareholder with respect to a controlled foreign corporation generally would not
be allowed certain tax deductions or foreign tax credits that would be allowed to a United States shareholder that is a U.S. corporation.
Failure to comply with these reporting obligations may subject a United States shareholder to significant monetary penalties and may
prevent the statute of limitations with respect to such shareholders U.S. federal income tax return for the year for which reporting
was due from starting. We cannot provide any assurances that we will assist investors in determining whether any of our non-U.S. subsidiaries
are treated as a controlled foreign corporation or whether any investor is treated as a United States shareholder with respect to any
of such controlled foreign corporations or furnish to any United States shareholders information that may be necessary to comply with
the aforementioned reporting and tax paying obligations. There is substantial uncertainty as to the application of each of the foregoing
rules as well as the determination of any relevant calculations in applying the foregoing rules. United States persons are strongly advised
to avoid acquiring, directly, indirectly or constructively, 10% or more of the value or voting power of our shares. A United States investor
should consult its advisors regarding the potential application of these rules to an investment in the ordinary shares.

**We
may be adversely affected by any disruption in our information technology systems. Our operations are dependent upon our information
technology systems, which encompass all of our major business functions.**
Increased
global information technology security requirements, vulnerabilities, threats and a rise in sophisticated and targeted cybercrime pose
a risk to the security of our systems, our information networks, and to the confidentiality, availability and integrity of our data,
as well as to the functionality of our manufacturing process. Introduced or increased risk associated with remote work transition pose
threats to workforce disruption, cybersecurity attacks and dissemination of sensitive personal data or proprietary confidential information
to our business. A disruption in our information technology systems for any prolonged period could result in delays in executing certain
production activities, logging and processing operational and financial data, communication with employees and third parties or fulfilling
customer orders resulting in potential liability or reputational damage or otherwise adversely affect our financial results. We employ
a number of measures to prevent, detect and mitigate these threats, which include employee education, password encryption, frequent password
change events, firewall detection systems, anti-virus software in-place and frequent backups; however, there is no guarantee such efforts
will be successful in preventing a cyber-attack.

Cybersecurity | |
We
employ procedures designed to identify, protect, detect and respond to and manage reasonably foreseeable cybersecurity risks and threats.
To protect our information systems from cybersecurity threats, we use various security tools that help prevent, identify, escalate, investigate,
resolve and recover from identified vulnerabilities and security incidents in a timely manner. Our information security framework is
based on the NIST Cybersecurity Framework, which along with continuous vigilance through ongoing vulnerability analyses, internal/external
testing, alerts and reviews of cybersecurity events, our comprehensive strategic risk assessment is achieved with collaboration of multidisciplinary
teams, and our vendor management that includes a robust contracting process and engages third parties for cybersecurity support, ensure
a resilient operation.
We
regularly assess risks from cybersecurity and technology threats and monitor our information systems for potential vulnerabilities, including
those that could arise from internal sources and external sources such as third-party service providers we do business with. We use a
widely-adopted risk quantification model to identify, measure and prioritize cybersecurity and technology risks and develop related security
controls and safeguards. We conduct regular reviews and other exercises to evaluate the effectiveness of our information security program
and improve our security measures and planning. We currently engage an external assessor and may in the future determine to engage an
assessor(s), consultant(s), auditor(s) or other third party(s) to supplement our processes.
The
Board oversees our annual enterprise risk assessment, where we assess key risks within the company, including security and technology
risks and cybersecurity threats. The Audit Committee of the Board oversees our cybersecurity risk and receives regular reports from our
management team on various cybersecurity matters, including risk assessments, mitigation strategies, areas of emerging risks, incidents
and industry trends, and other areas of importance. One of the Audit Committee members has a Bachelors degree in Computer Science,
is Certified in AI from MIT, and serves as the cybersecurity expert on the board of another company, bringing relevant expertise in cybersecurity
and technology risk management.
| 35 | |
Our
cybersecurity team is deeply integrated into our risk management process, led by the Director of Information and Technology and our Cybersecurity
Coordinator. Since 2022, the Director has overseen the companys cybersecurity strategy, engaging with leading vendors, participating
in industry events such as CPX, and leading the 2024 security policy redesign with an external advisor. The Cybersecurity Coordinator,
a certified expert in ISO27001 and ISO27032, specializes in ethical hacking, SOC management, network security, and standards compliance,
ensuring a well-documented and secure cybersecurity architecture. As part of our digital asset management strategy, we are also strengthening
protections against the use of unsupervised AI. We currently implement technical and regulatory blocks to prevent access to unauthorized
AI platforms, while maintaining an active awareness program to educate personnel on the proper use of these tools and the cybersecurity
risks associated with improper usage. Together, they periodically review and update our incident response plan, and collaborate with
subject matter specialists to ensure a comprehensive approach to identifying and managing material cybersecurity threats. An established
Information security committee contributes to a vigilant cybersecurity stance.
To
date, we have not experienced any attacks intended to lead to interruptions and delays in our service and operations as well as loss,
misuse or theft of personal information (of third parties, employees, and our members) and other data, confidential information or intellectual
property. Any significant disruption to our service or access to our systems in the future could adversely affect our business and results
of operation. Further, a penetration of our systems or a third-partys systems or other misappropriation or misuse of personal
information could subject us to business, regulatory, litigation and reputation risk, which could have a negative effect on our business,
financial condition and results of operations. See Risk Factors - We may be adversely affected by any disruption in our information
technology systems. Our operations are dependent upon our information technology systems, which encompass all of our major business functions.

Properties. | |
We
own and operate a total of 6.5 million square feet of manufacturing facilities. Our main 6.1 million square foot manufacturing complex,
located in Barranquilla, Colombia, houses a glass production plant, aluminum plant and window and facade assembly plant. The glass plant
has nine lamination machines with independent assembly rooms, eleven specialized tempering furnaces and glass molding furnaces, a computer
numerical-controlled profile bending machine, as well as a coater to produce low emissivity glass with high thermal insulation specifications
using soft coat technology. The Alutions plant has an effective installed capacity of 4,100 tons per month and can create a variety of
shapes and forms for windows, doors, and related products. We also own eight natural gas power generation plants, six with an aggregate
capacity of 10 megawatts, and two with 4.5 megawatts capacity each, which supply the electricity requirements of the entire manufacturing
complex and are supported by three emergency generators. We also own and operate a 123,399 square foot manufacturing and warehousing
facility in a 215,908 square foot lot in Miami-Dade County, Florida, United States, in addition to a new 69,829 square foot operating
facility from our recent Acquisition of Continental Glass Systems Real State. The facilities houses manufacturing and assembly equipment,
warehouse space, and administrative and sales offices.

We are also subject to other types of litigation arising from employment practices, workers compensation, automobile claims and
general liability. It is very difficult to predict precisely what the outcome of this litigation might be. However, with the information
at our disposition as this time, there are no indications that such claims will result in a material adverse effect on our business,

**Dividends**
Prior

if any, will also be contingent upon our revenues and earnings, if any, capital requirements and our general financial condition and
limitations imposed by our outstanding indebtedness.
Because
we are a holding company, our ability to pay dividends depends on our receipt of cash dividends from our operating subsidiaries, which
may further restrict our ability to pay dividends as a result of the laws of their jurisdictions of organization, agreements of our subsidiaries
or covenants under any existing and future outstanding indebtedness we or our subsidiaries incur. The ability of our subsidiaries in

**Overview**
We
are experienced and highly skilled in the vertical integration of windows and architectural glass manufacturing, distribution, and professional
fitting. Our expertise extends to the production of top-quality windows, as well as the supply of aluminum, vinyl, and other components.
Our dedicated and knowledgeable team serves a diverse range of commercial and residential construction projects worldwide, guaranteeing
outstanding products and seamless installation services. With a focus on innovation, combined with providing highly specified products
with the highest quality standards at competitive prices, we have earned #1 spot in the Forbes list of Americas 100 most
successful small-cap companies for 2024, and developed a leadership position in each of our core markets. In the United States, which
is our largest market, we were ranked among the four largest glass fabricators serving the United States in 2023 by Glass Magazine. In
addition, we believe we are the leading glass transformation company in Colombia. Our customers, which include developers, general contractors
or installers for hotels, office buildings, shopping centers, airports, universities, hospitals and multi-family and residential buildings,
look to us as a value-added partner based on our product development capabilities, our high-quality products and our unwavering commitment
to exceptional service.
With
over 40 years of experience in architectural glass and aluminum assembly, we specialize in transforming various glass products. Our offerings
include tempered safety glass, double thermo-acoustic glass, and laminated glass. Our wide range of finished glass products are utilized
in diverse buildings for floating facades, curtain walls, windows, doors, handrails, as well as interior and bathroom spatial dividers.
In addition to glass, we manufacture aluminum and vinyl products such as profiles, rods, bars, plates, and other hardware specifically
designed for window manufacturing.
| 38 | |
The
majority of our products are manufactured in a 6.1 million square foot, state-of-the-art manufacturing complex in Barranquilla, Colombia
that provides easy access to North, Central and South America, the Caribbean and the Pacific. Our products can be found on some of the
most distinctive buildings in these regions, including the Aston Martin Residences (Miami), Miami World Tower (Miami), 3ELEVEN (New York),
Raffles Hotel (Boston), Norwegian Cruise Line Terminal B (Miami), One Thousand Museum (Miami), Paramount Miami Worldcenter (Miami), Salesforce
Tower (San Francisco) and AEO Tower (Honolulu).. Our track record of successfully delivering high profile projects has earned
us an increasing number of opportunities across the United States, evidenced by our expanding backlog and overall revenue growth.
Our
structural competitive advantage is underpinned by our low-cost manufacturing footprint, vertically integrated business model and geographic
location. Our integrated facilities in Colombia and distribution and services operations in Florida provide us with a significant cost
advantage in both manufacturing and distribution, and we continue to invest in these operations to expand our operational capabilities.
Our lower cost manufacturing footprint allows us to offer competitive prices for our customers, while also providing innovative, high
quality and high value-added products, together with consistent and reliable service. We have historically generated high margin organic
growth based on our position as a value-added solutions provider for our customers.
We
have a strong presence in the Florida market, which represents a substantial portion of our revenue stream and backlog. Our success in
Florida has primarily been achieved through sustained organic growth, with further penetration now taking place into other highly populated
areas of the United States. As part of our strategy to become a fully vertically integrated company, we have supplemented our organic
growth with some acquisitions that have allowed us added control over our supply chain allowed for further vertical integration of our
business and will act as a platform for our future expansion in the United States. In 2016, we completed the acquisition of ESW, which
gave us control over the distribution of products into the United States from our manufacturing facilities in Colombia. In March 2017,
we completed the acquisition of GM&P, a consulting and glazing installation business that was previously our largest installation
customer. Most recently, on April 3, 2025, we completed the acquisition of certain assets and assume certain liabilities of Continental
Glass Systems, LLC, a leading provider of architectural glass and glazing solutions in the Southeast U.S., that included manufacturing
equipment, intangibles, and a strong project backlog, enhancing our U.S. presence, customer reach, and supply chain efficiency.
In
2019 we consummated the joint venture agreement with Saint-Gobain, acquiring a 25.8% minority ownership interest in Vidrio Andino, a
Colombia-based subsidiary of Saint-Gobain, solidifying our vertical integration strategy by acquiring an interest in the first stage
of our production chain, while securing ample glass supply for our expected production needs. Additionally, in April 2019, we acquired
a 70% equity interest in ESMetals, which has been consolidated in our financial statements since. In November 2023, we acquired the remaining
30% equity interest in ESMetals. ESMetals is a Colombian entity that serves as a metalwork contractor to supply us with steel accessories
used in the assembly of certain architectural systems as part of our vertical integration strategy.
The
continued diversification of the groups presence and product portfolio is a core component of our strategy. In particular, we
are actively seeking to expand our presence in United States outside of Florida. We also launched a residential window offering which,
we believe, will help us expand our presence in the United States and generate additional organic growth. We believe that the quality
of our products, coupled with our ability to price competitively given our structural advantages on cost, will allow us to generate further
growth in the future.
We
have focused on working with *The Power of Quality*, always making sure that our vision of sustainability is immersed into every
aspect of our business, including social, environmental, economic and governance variables, that help us make decisions and create value
for our stakeholders. We carry out a series of initiatives based on our global sustainability strategy, which is supported on three fundamental
pillars: promoting an ethical and responsible continuous growth, leading eco-efficiency and innovation, and empowering our environment.
As part of this strategy we have voluntarily adhered to UN Global Compact Principles since 2017 and in pursuit of our cooperation with
the attainment of the SDGs joined in 2021 a program to dynamize, strengthen and make visible the management of greenhouse gas emissions
as a carbon neutral strategy set out by the Colombian government for 2050.

We Generate Revenue**
We
are a leading manufacturer of hi-spec architectural glass and windows for the western hemisphere residential and commercial construction
industries, operating through our direct and indirect subsidiaries. Headquartered in Miami, Florida,, the Company maintains its principal
manufacturing operations in Colombia and operates out of approximately 6.5 million square foot vertically-integrated, state-of-the-art
manufacturing and operational footprint across Colombia and the United States that provides easy access to North, Central and South America,
the Caribbean, and the Pacific.

Our
glass products include tempered glass, laminated glass, thermo-acoustic glass, curved glass, silk-screened glass, and digital print glass
as well as mill finished, anodized, painted aluminum and vinyl profiles, and produces rods, tubes, bars and plates. Window production
lines are defined depending on the different types of windows: normal, impact resistant, hurricane-proof, safety, soundproof and thermal.
We produce fixed body, sliding windows, projecting windows, guillotine windows, sliding doors and swinging doors. ES produces facade
products which include: floating facades, automatic doors, bathroom dividers and commercial display windows. In late 2023, we entered
into the vinyl window market, expanding our product portfolio to more than double our addressable market, and offering customers a wider
selection of solutions to meet their project needs. We intend to capitalize on our existing distribution base for our aluminum products
to obtain significant synergies given the number of dealers and distributors that already sell both aluminum and vinyl windows.
We
sell to approximately 1,000 customers using several sales teams based out of Colombia and the United States to specifically target regional
markets in South, Central and North America. The United States accounted for 94.8%, and 95.5% of our combined revenues in 2025 and 2024,
respectively, while Colombia accounted for approximately 3.2% and 2.8%, and other Latin-American destinations accounted for approximately
2.0% and 1.7%, respectively.
We
sell our products through our main offices/sales teams based out of Florida and different regions in the US, which is our largest sales
group and has strong relationships with glazing contractors, general contractors, real estate developers and specialty window dealers
in the region. In late 2022, we launched two showrooms, one in New York City and one in Charleston, SC, to serve primarily single-family
residential markets in their regions. New showrooms have been completed in Houston, TX, and Bonita Springs, FL. Additionally, showrooms
in Phoenix, AZ and Los Angeles, CA are in the lease negotiating stages and are expected to open in 2025. We also have sales forces located
in Colombia and Panama with long-standing business relationships in the region to serve Latin American markets. We have two types of
sales operations: contract sales, which are the high-dollar, customer tailored projects, and standard form sales, which reflect lower-value
orders that are of short duration.
We
expect to benefit from growth in our largest markets in the United States by gaining market share, broadening our geographic footprint.
Favorable demographics in states such as South Carolina, Florida, Texas, and North Carolina, where we have a strong presence, contribute
to continued growth. According to FMIs 2025 Building Products Market Overview, annual spending for the residential window and
door market is expected to grow at a Compound Annual Growth rate of 6.2%, totaling $340 billion from 2025 to 2029, despite of current
macroeconomic challenges of affordability, interest rates, and tariff uncertainties, negatively impacting the U.S. residential market
as of 2025. This growth is anticipated to accelerate in 2027 and remain strong through 2029, mainly driven by high demand for energy
efficient products such as vinyl. On the other hand, Nonresidential building product spending is expected to experience a total growth
of 22% from 2025 to 2029, or a total projected spending of around $260 billion. Additionally, the latest Nonresidential Construction
Index (NRCI) increased from 47.9 in Q42025, to 54.5 in Q12026, reflecting improved expectations of economic conditions
and expanding industry opportunities from the commercial construction market for 2026. These stable to positive macro trends in our core
markets and geographies combined with a lean cost structure, leave us well positioned to maintain industry leading margins and further
diversify our presence into the U.S.
**Liquidity**
As
of December 31, 2025, and December 31, 2024, we had cash and cash equivalents of approximately $100.9 million and $134.9 million, respectively.
During the year ended December 31, 2025, the main source of cash was operating activities, which generated $135.8 million.
| 40 | |
As
of December 31, 2025, our liquidity position was comprised of $365 million available under committed lines of credit, in addition to
a cash balance of $100.9 million. We anticipate that working capital will continue to be a net benefit to cash flow in the near future,
which in addition to our current liquidity position, provides ample flexibility to service our obligations through the next twelve months.
**Capital
Resources**
We
transform glass and aluminum into high specification architectural glass and custom-made aluminum profiles which require significant
investments in state-of-the-art technology. During the years ended December 31, 2025, and 2024, we made investments primarily in building
and construction, and machinery and equipment in the amounts of $75.3 million, and $79.6 million, respectively. We believe our investments
in technology within recent years have positioned us well for continued growth given the flexibility afforded by our current installed
capacity, improved profitability and enhanced cash generation in the years ahead. Recent examples of our high return investments within
the last three years include:
| 
| 
| 
Further
automation of window assembly production lines, increasing efficiencies, labor and material waste costs with an estimated reduction
of on-site damage by 30%; | |
| 
| 
| 
| |
| 
| 
| 
Additional
aluminum expansion project to increase capacity by approximately 400 tons/month; | |
| 
| 
| 
| |
| 
| 
| 
Further
automation of additional glass lines, increasing efficiencies on an end-to-end basis reducing lead times, headcount and on-site damage
by approximately 40%; | |
| 
| 
| 
| |
| 
| 
| 
Automation
of three centralized aluminum warehouses for storing, sorting and delivering extrusion matrices and aluminum profiles to our internal
production processes that reduce lead times for the assembly of architectural systems and reduce on-site damage to materials; one
additional warehouse under construction in 2026 | |
| 
| 
| 
| |
| 
| 
| 
Acquiring
2.1 million square feet of land adjacent to our existing facilities for future expansion and for our sport facility complex available
to factory employees; | |
| 
| 
|

| 
| 
| 
Completed
expansion of our architectural metal facade plant, which specializes in engineering, designing, and manufacturing tailor-made facades. | |
In
April 2025, Tecnoglass acquired certain assets and assumed certain liabilities of Florida-based Continental Glass Systems, LLC. (Continental),
a premier provider of innovative architectural glass and glazing solutions in the Southeast U.S. This acquisition included a manufacturing
plant, various intangibles, and a substantial project backlog in both execution and pipeline phases. With annualized revenues of approximately
$30 million, Continentals production capabilities, high-quality product portfolio, and reputation for excellence strengthens Tecnoglass
U.S. market presence, broadens its client reach, and creates synergies that reinforce Tecnoglass leadership position in the architectural
glass industry. Additionally, the Company anticipates operational benefits as it integrates Continentals supply chains into its
existing manufacturing operations. The purchase price for the acquisition was $10,429, of which $6,841 of the purchase price was paid
in cash by the Company on April 3, 2025, with the remaining amount to be payable by the Company in cash within 365 days after closing
date. The total amount of acquisition-related costs was $588, which are included in the Statement of operations for the period ending
December 31, 2025.
Additionally,
we acquired $9.0 million and $6.4 million of property plant and equipment under credit during the twelve months ended December 31, 2025,
and 2024, respectively. These investments across our vertically-integrated operations include further automating our glass and window
assembly production lines, adding glass production lines, expanding our aluminum facilities, putting new vinyl windows lines to penetrate
this new product segment and purchasing land to grow beyond current installed capacity.
The
Company estimates that current manufacturing operating capacity has reached approximately $1.3 billion which does not account for incremental
installation revenue capacity. Additionally, the Company expects the resulting increase in output to improve efficiency throughout its
operations while reducing material waste and overall lead times.

**Comparison
of years ended December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024**
Our
operating revenue increased $93.4 million, or 10.5%, from $890.2 million in the year ended December 31, 2024, to $983.6 million in the
year ended December 31, 2025. Strong sales during 2025 were driven by U.S. commercial and single-family residential market activity.
U.S. sales increased $83.0 million, or 9.8%, from $849.9 million in 2024 to $932.9 million in 2025. U.S. Commercial market sales increased
$51.7 million, or 10.8%, from $477.8 million in 2024 to $529.5 million in 2025 as we continue to execute on our growing backlog. U.S.
single family residential market sales increased $31.3 million, or 8.4%, from $372.1 million in 2024 to $403.4 million in 2025 and accounted
for 41.0% of total sales in the year ended December 31, 2025. Sales to Latin-American markets increased $10.4 million, or 25.8%, from
$40.3 million in 2024 to $50.8 million in 2025.
Gross
profit during the twelve months ended December 31, 2025, was $421.4 million, an increase of $41.4 million, or 10.9%, from $380.0 million
during the twelve months ended December 31, 2024. The gross profit margin during the twelve months ended December 31, 2025, remained
stable at 42.8% from 42.7% during the twelve months of 2024. During 2025, pricing action and improved operating leverage, balanced out
inflationary pressures on input costs, mostly salary increases set at the beginning of the year, and rising cost of aluminum in part
due to our tariff mitigation strategy. Average FX rates remained relatively stable year over year despite some short term volatility.
Operating
expenses increased $43.3 million, or 28.3%, from $153.0 million to $196.3 million for the twelve months ended December 31, 2024, and
2025, respectively. The increase was mainly driven by tariffs on imports into the U.S. which generated $19.9 million expense. Additionally,
the nominal increase was driven by administrative salary adjustments and higher transportation and commission expenses related to higher
revenues.
During
the twelve months ended December 31, 2025, the Company recorded other operating income of $5.6 million mainly related to a gain on the
sale of an aircraft and the recognition of a refund related to Employee Retention Credits under government relief programs. There was
no comparable income recorded during the previous year period.
During
the twelve months ended December 31, 2025, and 2024, the Company recorded non-operating income of $3.1 and $5.9 million, respectively.
Non-operating income for the period is comprised primarily of income from rental properties and gains on sale of scrap materials as well
as non-operating expenses related to certain charitable contributions outside of the Companys direct sphere of influence.
| 42 | |
During
the twelve months ended December 31, 2025, the Company recorded a non-operating net gain of $3.8 million associated with foreign currency
transactions, compared to a net loss of $5.7 million during the twelve months ended December 31, 2024.
In
September 2025, the Company entered into a new Senior Secured Credit Facility to replace its prior credit agreement dated November 2021.
The new facility transitions the Company from a term-loan-plus-revolver structure to a fully committed revolving facility and (i) increases
total committed borrowing capacity from $150 million to $500 million, (ii) reduces borrowing costs by approximately 25 basis points,
and (iii) extends the initial maturity date by five years to December 2030. Borrowings under the new facility bear interest at the Secured
Overnight Financing Rate (SOFR) with no floor, plus a spread of 1.25%, based on the Companys net leverage ratio. The effective
interest rate for this facility, including deferred issuance costs, is 6.98% as of December 31, 2025. In connection with the establishment
of the new facility, the Company incurred total costs and fees of $2,783 which were capitalized as deferred financing costs.
The
transaction was accounted for as a debt extinguishment in accordance with ASC 470-50. As a result, the Company recognized a loss on extinguishment
of debt of $1,380, representing the write-off of the remaining unamortized deferred financing costs related to the prior credit facilities
and termination costs associated with closing the previous facility.
Interest
expense and deferred cost of financing decreased by $0.5 million, or 7.2%, to $6.9 million for the twelve months ended December 31, 2025,
primarily reflecting the discontinuation of hedge accounting for the Companys interest rate swap contracts upon the extinguishment
of the prior credit facility and issuance of the new revolving facility. Following this discontinuation, the periodic settlements and
fair value changes of these swaps are now recognized within Interest income (expense), net and deferred cost of financing on the Consolidated
Statement of Operations and Comprehensive Income. During the twelve months ended December 31, 2025, the Company recorded a gain of $3.3
million related to derivative financial instruments.
The
effective income tax rate of 32.2% and 28.4% for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024. Our effective rate generally reflects a
blended statutory rate, primarily driven by the 35% corporate tax rate in Colombia, where most of our manufacturing operations are located,
and the 21% U.S. federal statutory rate.
As
a result of the foregoing, the Company recorded a net income for the year ended December 31, 2025 of $159.6 million, compared to $161.3
million for the year ended December 31, 2024.
****
**Comparison
of years ended December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023**
****
Our
operating revenue increased $56.9 million, or 6.8%, from $833.3 million in the year ended December 31, 2023, to $890.2 million in the
year ended December 31, 2024. Strong sales during 2024 were driven by U.S. commercial and single-family residential market activity.
U.S. sales increased $54.8 million, or 6.9%, from $795.1 million in 2023 to $849.9 million in 2024. U.S. Commercial market sales increased
$18.1 million, or 3.9%, from $459.7 million in 2023 to $477.8 million in 2024 as we continue to execute on our growing backlog. U.S.
single family residential market sales increased $36.7 million, or 10.9%, from $335.4 million in 2023 to $372.1 million in 2024 and accounted
for 41.8% of total sales in the year ended December 31, 2024. Sales to Latin-American markets increased $2.1 million, or 5.4%, from $38.2
million in 2023 to $40.3 million in 2024.
Gross
profit during the year ended December 31, 2024, was $380.0 million, a decrease of $10.9 million, or 2.8%, from $390.9 million during
the year ended December 31, 2023. The gross profit margin during the year ended December 31, 2024, decreased to 42.7% from 46.9% during
the year ended December 31, 2023, primarily related to a 5.9% appreciation of the Colombian Peso impacting our costs denominated in Colombian
Pesos against our predominantly US Dollar revenue stream. Additionally, the year over year comparison was also impacted by our mix of
revenue, with sales from installation projects, wich bears lower margins, now accounting for 18.2% of our total revenues for the year
ended December 31, 2024, compared to 15.4% for the year ended December 31, 2023, as well as higher salaries which were adjusted by the
government at the beginning of the year and higher headcount to adjust for ongoing growth, which accounted for 210 basis points of our
gross margin deterioration. Despite the year over year reduction of gross profit margin, gross margin sequentially increased during the
year ended December 31, 2024.
Operating
expenses increased $21.8 million, or 16.6%, from $131.2 million to $153.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2023 and 2024, respectively.
The increase was mainly driven by personnel expense, up $9.4 million from $35.7 million during the year ended December 31, 2023, to $45.1
million during the year ended December 31, 2024, due to administrative salary adjustments, and operating headcount increase to support
our growing operation, resulting in 74 basis points deterioration of our operating margin; and by a negative effect in COP denominated
amounts related to a 5.9% appreciation of the Colombian Peso against US Dollar over the period.
During
the year ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, the Company recorded non-operating income of $5.9 and $5.1 million, respectively. Non-operating
income for the period is comprised primarily of interest income from short-term investments, income from rental properties and gains
on sale of scrap materials as well as non-operating expenses related to certain charitable contributions outside of the Companys
direct sphere of influence.
| 43 | |
Interest
expense and deferred cost of financing decreased $1.7 million, or 19.0%, to $7.4 million during the year ended December 31, 2024, from
$9.2 million during the year ended December 31, 2023, as the Company voluntarily prepaid $62.0 million to reduce its debt balance and
benefited from having a favorable interest rate hedge in place for 100% of its outstanding debt.
During
the year ended December 31, 2024, the Company recorded a non-operating net loss of $5.7 million associated with foreign currency transactions,
compared to a net gain of $0.7 million during the year ended December 31, 2023.
The
effective income tax rate of 28.4% and 29.8% for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively, are below the average statutory
rates of 31.3% and 30.4% during each of those periods, respectively, as the proportion of our taxable income shifted jurisdictions resulting
from new developments of our product designs, trademarks and other intellectual property rights as well as from growing profit in US
subsidiaries.
As
a result of the foregoing, the Company recorded a net income for the year ended December 31, 2024 of $161.3 million compared to $183.5
million for the year ended December 31, 2023.
**Cash
Flow from Operations, Investing and Financing Activities**
During
the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, operating activities generated approximately $135.8 million and $170.5 million, respectively.
The strong cashflow from operations during the year ended December 31, 2025, was mainly associated with our industry leading profitability
and effective working capital management, partially offset by incremental input costs and tariff expenses in 2025.
The
main sources of operating cash during the year ended December 31, 2025, were contract assets and liabilities, and trade accounts payable
and accrued expenses. Contract assets and liabilities generated $31.4 million during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025, mostly
due to an increase in billings in excess of costs, as large commercial jobs are being executed, and large projects from our backlog are
starting operations; compared to $14.3 million generated during the twelve months ended December 31, 2024. In addition, trade accounts
payable and accrued expenses generated $8.1 million during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025, related to higher payables due to
our higher raw material purchases as we procure a stock of U.S. sourced aluminum as part of our tariff mitigation strategy, compared
with $14.7 million during the fiscal ended December 31, 2024. In direct relation to that, the largest use of cash in operating activities
was the purchase of inventories, which used $45.1 million during the twelve months ended December 31, 2025, in contrast to $2.9 million
used during the prior year period.
We
used $87.5 million and $77.3 million in investing activities during the twelve months ended December 31, 2025, and 2024, respectively.
During the year ended December 31, 2025, we paid $101.3 million to acquire property plant and equipment, which is partially offset by
$12.3 million sale of property, plant and equipment. This included scheduled payments on previous investments to increase capacity and
efficiency, as well as $15.0 million of real estate in south Florida. Additionally, we spent $6.8 million to acquire certain assets and
assume certain liabilities of Continental Glass Systems, LLC, a leading provider of architectural glass and glazing solutions in the
Southeast U.S., that included manufacturing equipment, intangibles, and a strong project backlog, enhancing our U.S. presence, customer
reach, and supply chain efficiency. The price of this purchase was $10.4 million, of which $3.6 million remains to be paid in the short
term. During the twelve months ended December 31, 2024, we used $79.6 million for the acquisition of property and equipment.
Financing
activities reflected gross debt proceeds of $176.0 million and repayments of $114.4 million, primarily related to the replacement of
the Companys prior credit facility with a new $500 million revolving facility in September 2025. The transaction was accounted
for as a debt extinguishment under ASC 470-50, resulting in the recognition of $1.0 million in deferred financing costs associated with
the new facility, which extends the maturity to December 2030 and provides increased borrowing capacity and enhanced financial flexibility.
| 44 | |
**Off-Balance
Sheet Arrangements**
We
did not have any material off-balance sheet arrangements as of December 31, 2025 or 2024.
**Critical
Accounting Estimates**
The
preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make significant estimates and assumptions that
affect the assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and other related amounts during the periods covered by the financial statements.
Management routinely makes judgments and estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain. As the number of variables
and assumptions affecting the future resolution of the uncertainties increases, these judgments become more subjective and complex. We
have identified the following accounting policies as the most important to the presentation and disclosure of our financial condition
and results of operations.
*Revenue
Recognition*
For
supply and installation contracts, the performance obligations are satisfied over time and control is deemed to be transferred when the
contract is accepted by our customers. Revenues from supply and installation contracts are recognized using the cost-to-cost method,
measured by the percentage of costs incurred to date to total estimated costs for each contract. Contract modifications routinely occur
to account for changes in contract specifications or requirements. In most cases, contract modifications are for goods or services that
are not distinct and, therefore, are accounted for as part of the existing contract. Transaction price estimates include additional consideration
for submitted contract modifications or claims when the Company believes it has an enforceable right to the modification or claim, the
amount can be reliably estimated, and its realization is reasonably assured. Amounts representing modifications accounted for as part
of the existing contract are included in the transaction price and recognized as an adjustment to sales on a cumulative catch-up basis.

Quantitative
and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk. | |
We
are exposed to ongoing market risk related to changes in interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates and commodity market prices.
Previously,
a rise in interest rates could negatively affect the cost of financing for a significant portion of our debt with variable interest rates.
However, following recent repayments in 2024 only an immaterial portion of our debt is exposed to market risk, net of the effect from
interest rate hedging derivative financial instruments further described in the footnotes to the financial statements, and fluctuations
in interest rates would not have a significant impact on our cost of financing.
| 45 | |
We
are subject to market risk due to changes in the value of foreign currencies in relation to our reporting currency, the U.S. Dollar.
Some of our subsidiaries operations are based in Colombia and primarily transact business in local currency. Approximately 3.2%
of our consolidated revenues and 25% of our costs and expenses are effectively incurred in Colombian pesos, thereby mitigating some of
the risk associated with changes in foreign exchange rates. However, as our costs and expenses in Colombian Pesos exceed, a 5% appreciation
of the Colombian Peso relative to the U.S. Dollar would result in our annual revenues increasing by $1.7 million and our costs and expenses
increasing by approximately $11.1 million, resulting in a $9.4 million decrease to net earnings based on results for the twelve months
ended December 31, 2025.
Similarly,
a significant portion of the monetary assets and liabilities of these subsidiaries are generally denominated in U.S. Dollars, while their
functional currency is the Colombian peso, thereby resulting in gains or losses from remeasurement of assets and liabilities using end
of period spot exchange rate. These subsidiaries have both monetary assets and monetary liabilities denominated in U.S. Dollars, thereby
mitigating some of the risk associated with changes in foreign exchange rate. U.S. Dollar denominated monetary liabilities exceed their
monetary assets by $43.9 million, such that a 1% devaluation of the Colombian peso will result in a loss of $0.4 million recorded in
the Companys Consolidated Statement of Operations as of December 31, 2025.
Additionally,
the results of the foreign subsidiaries must be translated into U.S. Dollar, our reporting currency, in the Companys consolidated
financial statements. The currency translation of the financial statements using different exchange rates, as appropriate, for different
parts of the financial statements generates a translation adjustment, which is recorded within other comprehensive income on the Companys
Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income and Consolidated Balance Sheet.
We
are also subject to market risk exposure related to volatility in the prices of aluminum, one of the principal raw materials used for
our manufacturing. The commodities markets, which include the aluminum industry, are highly cyclical in nature, and as a result, prices
can be volatile. Commodity costs are influenced by numerous factors beyond our control, including general economic conditions, the availability
of raw materials, competition, labor costs, freight and transportation costs, production costs, import duties and other trade restrictions.
Our selling prices are also impacted by changes in commodity costs base our pricing of aluminum products based on the quoted price on
the London Metals Exchange plus a manufacturing premium with the intention of aligning cost of our raw materials with selling prices
to attempt to pass commodity price changes through to our customers.
We
cannot accurately estimate the impact a one percent change in the commodity costs would have on our results of operation, as the change
in commodity costs would both impact the cost to purchase materials and our selling prices. The impact to our results of operations depends
on the conditions of the market for our products, which could impact our ability to pass commodities costs to our customers.

**Evaluation
of Disclosure Controls and Procedures**
We
performed an evaluation required by Rules 13a-15 and 15d-15 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, under the supervision
and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, of our design
and operating effectiveness of the internal controls over financial reporting as of the end of the period covered by this Annual Report.
Based on this evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and
procedures as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, were effective as of December
31, 2025, in order to provide reasonable assurance that the information disclosed in our reports is recorded, processed, summarized,
and reported within the time periods specified in the SECs rules and forms and to provide reasonable assurance that such information
is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate
to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
**Managements
Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting**
Our
management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as that term is defined
in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.
A
companys internal control over financial reporting includes policies and procedures that: (i) pertain to the maintenance of records
that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company, (ii) provide
reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles in the United States, and that receipts and expenditures of the Company are being made only in accordance
with authorizations of management and directors of the company, and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely
detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of the companys assets that could have a material effect on the financial
statements.
Our
management, with the participation of our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, conducted an evaluation of the
effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting, as of December 31, 2025, based on criteria set forth in the *Internal
Control - Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO).*
**
Management
has excluded Contiglass Asset Acquisition, LLC (Contiglass) from its assessment of internal control over financial reporting
as of December 31,2025, because it was acquired by the Company in a purchase business combination on April 3, 2025. Contiglass is a wholly
owned subsidiary of the Company whose total assets and total revenues excluded from managements assessment represent 1.9% and less than 1.5%, respectively, of the related consolidated financial statements amounts as of and for the year ended December
31, 2025.
Based
on this evaluation, our management concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was effective in providing reasonable
assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance
with generally accepted accounting principles.
The
effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2025 has been audited by PwC Contadores y Auditores
S.A.S, an independent registered public accounting firm, as stated in their report, which appears herein.
**Changes

There
has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting during our most recent fiscal quarter that has materially affected,
or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Executive
Compensation. | |
**Overview;
Compensation Discussion and Analysis**
Our
policies with respect to the compensation of our executive officers are administered by our board in consultation with our compensation
committee. Our compensation policies are intended to provide for compensation that:
| 
| 
| 
is
sufficient to attract and retain executives of outstanding ability and potential; | |
| 
| 
| 
is
tailored to the unique characteristics and needs of our company; | |
| 
| 
| 
considers
individual value and contribution to our success; | |
| 
| 
| 
is
designed to motivate our executive officers to achieve our annual and long-term goals by rewarding performance based on the attainment
of those goals; | |
| 
| 
| 
is
designed to appropriately take into account risk and reward in the context of our business environment; | |
| 
| 
| 
reflects
an appropriate relationship between executive compensation and the creation of shareholder value; and | |
| 
| 
| 
is
sensitive to market benchmarks. | |
The
compensation committee is in charge of recommending executive compensation packages to our board that meet these goals. In making decisions
about executive compensation, the compensation committee relies on the experience of its members as well as subjective considerations
of various factors, including individual and corporate performance, our strategic business goals, each executives position, experience,
level of responsibility, and future potential, and compensation paid by companies of similar size in our industry. The compensation committee
sets specific KPIs or benchmarks for annual fixed compensation or for allocations between different elements of compensation.
Our
compensation committee is charged with performing an annual review of our executive officers cash compensation and equity holdings
to determine whether they provide adequate incentives and motivation to executive officers and whether they adequately compensate the
executive officers relative to comparable officers in other companies. As part of this review, management submits recommendations to
the compensation committee.
We
believe it is important when making compensation-related decisions to be informed as to current practices of similarly situated publicly
held companies in our industry. Our compensation committee stays appraised of the cash and equity compensation practices of publicly
held companies in the glass and aluminum industries through the review of such companies public reports and through other resources.
The companies chosen for inclusion in any benchmarking group would have business characteristics comparable to our company, including
revenues, financial growth metrics, stage of development, employee headcount and market capitalization. While benchmarking may not always
be appropriate as a stand-alone tool for setting compensation due to the aspects of our business and objectives, we generally believe
that gathering this information is an important part of our compensation-related decision-making process.
*Consideration
of Shareholder Advisory Votes on Executive Compensation*
We
also take into consideration our most recent shareholder advisory vote (a Say on Pay Advisory Vote) on executive compensation,
as required by Section 14A of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. In the last advisory vote, conducted at our annual general meeting
on December 19, 2025, our compensation program was approved on an advisory basis by over 67% of the shareholders who submitted a vote
thereabout. We consider this to be a strong validation
that our pay practices are firmly aligned with our shareholders best interests. In accordance with the shareholder vote held at
our 2025 annual general meeting, we conduct a Say on Pay Advisory Vote every three years. The next will be at our 2028 annual general
meeting.
*Base
Salaries*
Each
of our named executive officers is employed on an at-will basis. Base salaries for our executive officers are individually determined
by our compensation committee each year to ensure that each executives base salary forms part of a compensation package which
appropriately rewards the executive for the value he or she brings to our company. Each executives base salary may be increased
or decreased in the discretion of the compensation committee in accordance with our compensation philosophy.
*Bonuses*
In
addition to their base salaries, our named executive officers are entitled to receive annual performance bonuses based on the companys
financial performance and achievement of certain targets throughout the year.
*Other
Compensation and Benefits*
Named
executive officers receive additional compensation in the form of vacation, medical, 401(k), and other benefits generally available to
all of our employees. We do not provide any other perquisites or other personal benefits to our named executive officers.

*Compensation
Arrangements with Named Executive Officers*
On
November 5, 2025, our compensation committee recommended, and on February 25, 2026, our Board approved, the following compensation arrangements
for 2026 for each of Messrs. Daes, Daes, and Giraldo: (i) with respect to each of Messrs. Daes and Daes, a base salary of $4,075,515
plus a bonus of up to $1,628,206; and (ii) with respect to Mr. Giraldo, a base salary of $779,376 and a performance bonus of up to $311,750
per year. Each of the bonuses will be based on our 2026 financial performance and achievement of certain to-be-agreed upon targets throughout
the year.
*Risk
Management as related to our Compensation Policies and Practices*
Our
compensation committee regularly convenes and confers with management regarding our policies and practices of compensating employees,
including non-executive officers, as they relate to risk management practices and risk-taking incentives. Our compensation committee
has determined, and our management agrees, that our current compensation policies and practices for employees are not reasonably likely
to have a material adverse effect on us.
| 51 | |
*Policies
and Practices for Granting certain Equity Awards*
As
noted below, we have not granted any share options, share appreciation rights or any other awards under long-term incentive plans. We
do not currently have any plans to issue any such award. If and when we begin issuing such awards, our compensation committee will determine
how the board determines when to grant such awards (for example, whether such awards are granted on a predetermined schedule); and whether
the board or compensation committee takes material nonpublic information into account when determining the timing and terms of such an
award, and, if so, how the board or compensation committee takes material nonpublic information into account when determining the timing
and terms of such an award. In any event, we will take precautions reasonably designed to ensure we do not time the disclosure of material
nonpublic information for the purpose of affecting the value of executive compensation.

Pay
Ratio Disclosures*
The
following pay ratio information is provided in accordance with the requirements of Item 402(u) of Regulation S-K of the Exchange Act.
For
fiscal 2025, the Companys last completed fiscal year:
| 
| 
| 
the
median of the annual total compensation of all employees of the Company (other than the Chief Executive Officer) was $5,687; and | |
| 
| 
| 
the
annual total compensation of the Companys Chief Executive Officer, Jose M. Daes, was $5,070,912. | |
Based
on this information, the ratio for 2025 of the annual total compensation of the Chief Executive Officer to the median of the annual total
compensation of all employees is 892 to 1.
The
following steps were taken to determine the total annual compensation of the median employee and the Chief Executive Officer:
| 
| 
| 
As
of December 31, 2025, the employee population consisted of approximately 9,601 individuals, including full time, part time, temporary,
and seasonal employees employed on that date. This date was selected because it aligned with calendar year end and allowed identification
of employees in a reasonably efficient manner. | |
| 
| 
| 
For
purposes of identifying the median employee from our employee population base, wages from our internal payroll records for the twelve-month
period ended December 31, 2025, were used. These wages were consistent with amounts reported to taxation authorities for fiscal 2024.
Consistent with the calculation of the Chief Executive Officers annual compensation, other elements of employee compensation
were considered and added, if applicable when calculating the annual total compensation for all employees. | |
| 
|

**Indemnification
Agreements**
Effective
March 5, 2014, we entered into indemnification agreements with each of our executive officers and members of our board of directors.
The indemnification agreements supplement our Third Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association and Cayman Islands law
in providing certain indemnification rights to these individuals. The indemnification agreements provide, among other things that we
will indemnify these individuals to the fullest extent permitted by Cayman Islands law and to any greater extent that Cayman Islands
law may in the future permit, including the advancement of attorneys fees and other expenses incurred by such individuals in connection
with any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or other proceeding, whether of a civil, criminal, administrative, regulatory,
legislative or investigative nature, relating to any occurrence or event before or after the date of the indemnification agreements,
by reason of the fact that such individuals is or were our directors or executive officers, subject to certain exclusions and procedures
set forth in the indemnification agreements, including the absence of fraud or willful default on the part of the indemnitee and, with
respect to any criminal proceeding, that the indemnitee had no reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful.
**Related
Person Policy**
Our
Code of Conduct requires us to avoid, wherever possible, all related party transactions that could result in actual or potential conflicts
of interests, except under guidelines approved by the board of directors (or the audit committee). Related-party transactions are defined
as transactions in which (1) the aggregate amount involved will or may be expected to exceed $120,000 in any calendar year, (2) we or
any of our subsidiaries are a participant, and (3) any (a) executive officer, director or nominee for election as a director, (b) greater
than 5% beneficial owner of our ordinary shares, or (c) immediate family member, of the persons referred to in clauses (a) and (b), has
or will have a direct or indirect material interest (other than solely as a result of being a director or a less than 10% beneficial
owner of another entity). A conflict of interest situation can arise when a person takes actions or has interests that may make it difficult
to perform his or her work objectively and effectively. Conflicts of interest may also arise if a person, or a member of his or her family,
receives improper personal benefits as a result of his or her position.
Our
audit committee, pursuant to its written charter, is responsible for reviewing and approving material or significant related-party transactions
to the extent we enter into such transactions. The audit committee will consider all relevant factors when determining whether to approve
a related party transaction, including whether the related party transaction is on terms no less favorable than terms generally available
to an unaffiliated third-party under the same or similar circumstances and the extent of the related partys interest in the transaction.
No director may participate in the approval of any transaction in which he is a related party, but that director is required to provide
the audit committee with all material information concerning the transaction. Additionally, we require each of our directors and executive
officers to complete an annual directors and officers questionnaire that elicits information about related party transactions.
| 58 | |
These
procedures are intended to determine whether any such related party transaction impairs the independence of a director or presents a
conflict of interest on the part of a director, employee or officer.
**Director
Independence**
We
adhere to the NYSE listing standards in determining whether a director is independent. Our board of directors consults with its counsel
to ensure that the boards determinations are consistent with those rules and all relevant securities and other laws and regulations
regarding the independence of directors.
The
NYSE listing standards define an independent director as a person, other than an executive officer of a company or any
other individual having a relationship which, in the opinion of the issuers board of directors, would interfere with the exercise
of independent judgment in carrying out the responsibilities of a director. Consistent with these considerations, we have affirmatively
determined that Messrs. Cure Cure, Castro Vergara, Torres and Ms. Carricarte qualify as independent directors. Our independent directors
have regularly scheduled meetings at which only independent directors are present.

**Report
of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm**
To
the Board of Directors and Shareholders of Tecnoglass Inc.
**Opinions
on the Financial Statements and Internal Control over Financial Reporting**
We
have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Tecnoglass Inc. and its subsidiaries (the Company) as of December
31, 2025 and 2024, and the related consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income, shareholders equity and cash
flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2025, including the related notes (collectively referred to as the
consolidated financial statements). We also have audited the Companys internal control over financial reporting
as of December 31, 2025, based on criteria established in *Internal Control - Integrated Framework* (2013) issued by the Committee
of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO).
In
our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position
of the Company as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in
the period ended December 31, 2025 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Also
in our opinion, the Company maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December
31, 2025, based on criteria established in *Internal Control - Integrated Framework* (2013) issued by the COSO.
**Basis
for Opinions**
The
Companys management is responsible for these consolidated financial statements, for maintaining effective internal control over financial
reporting, and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, included in Managements Report
on Internal Control over Financial Reporting appearing under Item 9A. Our responsibility is to express opinions on the Companys
consolidated financial statements and on the Companys internal control over financial reporting based on our audits. We are a public
accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent
with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities
and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We
conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud,
and whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects.
Our
audits of the consolidated financial statements included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated
financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included
examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. Our audits also
included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation
of the consolidated financial statements. Our audit of internal control over financial reporting included obtaining an understanding
of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, and testing and evaluating the design
and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk. Our audits also included performing such other procedures
as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinions.
As
described in Managements Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting, management has excluded Contiglass Asset Acquisition,
LLC from its assessment of internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2025 because it was acquired by the Company in
a purchase business combination during 2025. We have also excluded Contiglass Asset Acquisition, LLC from our audit of internal control
over financial reporting. Contiglass Asset Acquisition, LLC is a wholly-owned subsidiary whose total assets and total revenues excluded
from managements assessment and our audit of internal control over financial reporting represent 1.9% and less than 1.5%, respectively,
of the related consolidated financial statement amounts as of and for the year ended December 31, 2025.
| F-2 | |
**Definition
and Limitations of Internal Control over Financial Reporting**
A
companys internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability
of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles. A companys internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (i) pertain to the
maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the
company; (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements
in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in
accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention
or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the companys assets that could have a material effect
on the financial statements.
Because
of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of
any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions,
or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
**Critical
Audit Matters**
The
critical audit matter communicated below is a matter arising from the current period audit of the consolidated financial statements that
was communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that (i) relates to accounts or disclosures that are material
to the consolidated financial statements and (ii) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. The communication
of critical audit matters does not alter in any way our opinion on the consolidated financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are
not, by communicating the critical audit matter below, providing a separate opinion on the critical audit matter or on the accounts or
disclosures to which it relates.
*Revenue
Recognition Estimated Costs to Complete Fixed Price Contracts*
As
described in notes 2 and 6 to the consolidated financial statements, $263.6 million of the Companys total revenues for the year
ended December 31, 2025 was generated from fixed price contracts. For the Companys fixed price contracts, revenues are recognized
using the cost-to-cost method, measured mainly by the percentage of costs incurred to date to total estimated costs for each contract.
As disclosed by management, the Company generally uses the cost-to-cost method to measure progress for its contracts, which occurs as
the Company incurs costs on the contracts. Under the cost-to-cost method, sales are generally recorded at amounts equal to the ratio
of actual cumulative costs incurred divided by total estimated costs at completion, multiplied by (i) the transaction price, less (ii)
the cumulative sales recognized in prior periods. Due to the nature of the work required to be performed, managements estimation
of costs at completion requires judgment based on reasonable estimations. Management has disclosed that, while there are various factors
that can affect the accuracy of cost estimates related to the revision of the proper allocation of indirect labor and indirect material
costs to each project, such estimates are made based on the most updated historical information and margins of those indirect costs over
the associated revenues and on all relevant information associated with each specific project at any point in time.
The
principal considerations for our determination that performing procedures relating to revenue recognition - estimated costs to complete
fixed price contracts is a critical audit matter are (i) the significant judgments by management when determining the estimated costs
to complete fixed price contracts and (ii) a high degree of auditor judgment and effort in performing procedures and evaluating managements
estimates of total costs to complete fixed price contracts. Managements estimates included judgments relating to the allocation
of indirect labor and indirect material costs to each project of actual incurred costs to date on the contract.
Addressing
the matter involved performing procedures and evaluating audit evidence in connection with forming our overall opinion on the consolidated
financial statements. These procedures included testing the effectiveness of controls relating to the revenue recognition process, including
controls over the determination of estimated costs to complete fixed price contracts and controls over managements review and
approval of the actual indirect labor and indirect material costs allocated to the project and testing managements process for
reviewing and approving the costs of the contract. These procedures also included, among others testing the estimate of costs at completion
for a sample of contracts, which included evaluating the reasonableness of the allocation of indirect labor and indirect material costs
to each project and considering the factors that can affect the accuracy of these estimates. Evaluating the reasonableness of the allocation
of indirect labor and indirect material costs to each project involved assessing managements ability to reasonably estimate costs
to complete fixed price contracts by (i) performing a comparison of the originally estimated and actual costs incurred; and (ii) evaluating
the timely identification of circumstances that may warrant a modification to estimated costs to complete, including actual costs in
excess of estimates.

preparation of the accompanying consolidated financial statements requires the Company to make estimates and judgments that affect the
reported amounts of assets and liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the
date of the Companys financial statements. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions and conditions.
Estimates inherent in the preparation of these consolidated financial statements relate to the collectability of account receivables,
the valuation of inventories, estimated earnings on uncompleted contracts, income taxes, useful lives and potential impairment of long-lived
assets.
**Principles
of Consolidation**
These
audited consolidated financial statements consolidate Tecnoglass, its subsidiaries Tecnoglass S.A.S (TG), C.I. Energa
Solar S.A.S E.S. Windows (ES), ES Windows LLC (ESW LLC), Tecnoglass LLC, Tecno RE LLC, Tecnoglass Armour,
LLC, GM&P Consulting and Glazing Contractors (GM&P), Componenti USA LLC, ES Metals SAS (ES Metals),
Ventanas Solar S.A (VS), which are entities in which we have a controlling financial interest because we hold a majority
voting interest. To determine if we hold a controlling financial interest in an entity, we first evaluate if we are required to apply
the variable interest entity (VIE) model to the entity, otherwise the entity is evaluated under the voting interest model.
All significant intercompany accounts and transactions are eliminated in consolidation, including unrealized intercompany profits and
losses. The equity method of accounting is used for investments in affiliates and other joint ventures over which the Company has significant
influence but does not have effective control.
**Foreign
Currency Translation and Transactions**
The
consolidated financial statements are presented in U.S. Dollars, the reporting currency. Our foreign subsidiaries local currency
is the Colombian Peso, which is also their functional currency as determined by the market analysis, costs and expenses, assets, liabilities,
financing and cash flow indicators. As such, our subsidiaries assets and liabilities are translated at the exchange rate in effect
at the balance sheet date, with equity being translated at the historical rates. Revenues and expenses of our foreign subsidiaries are
translated at the average exchange rates for the period. The resulting cumulative foreign currency translation adjustments from this
process are included as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss). Therefore, the U.S. Dollar value of these items
in our financial statements fluctuates from period to period.
| F-8 | |
**Cash
and Cash Equivalents**
Cash
and cash equivalents include investments with original maturities of three months or less. As of December 31, 2025, and 2024, cash and
cash equivalents were primarily comprised of deposits held in operating accounts in the United States, and to a lesser amount, Colombia,
and Panama. As of December 31, 2025, and 2024 the Company had no restricted cash.
**Investments**
The
Companys investments are comprised of securities available for sale, short term deposits and income producing real estate.
We
have investments in long-term marketable equity securities which are classified as available-for-sale securities and are recorded at
fair value.
Short-
term deposits and other financial instruments with maturities greater than 90 days and shares in other companies that do not meet the
requirements for equity method treatment are recorded for at cost.
**Trade
Accounts Receivable**
Trade
accounts receivable are recorded net of allowances for cash discounts for prompt payment, doubtful accounts and sales returns. The Companys
policy is to reserve for uncollectible accounts based on its best estimate of the amount of expected credit losses in its existing accounts
receivable. The Company periodically reviews its accounts receivable to determine whether an allowance for credit losses is necessary
based on an analysis of current credit losses and other factors that may indicate that the collectability of an account may be in doubt.
Other factors that the Company considers include its existing contractual obligations, historical payment patterns of its customers and
individual customer circumstances, and a review of the local economic environment and its potential impact on the collectability of accounts
receivable. Account balances are deemed to be uncollectible and are charged off within 90 days of having recorded an allowance and all
means of collection have been exhausted and the potential for recovery is considered remote.
On
certain fixed price contracts, a portion of the amounts billed are withheld by the customer as a retainage which typically amount to
10% of the invoiced amount and can remain outstanding for several months until a final good receipt of the complete project to the customers
satisfaction.
**Concentration
of Risks and Uncertainties**
Financial
instruments which potentially subject the Company to credit risk consist primarily of cash and trade accounts receivable. The Company
mitigates its cash risk by maintaining its cash deposits with major financial institutions in the United States and Colombia. As discussed
above, the Company mitigates its risk to trade accounts receivable by performing on-going credit evaluations of its customers.
| F-9 | |
**Inventories**
Inventories
of raw materials, which consist primarily of purchased and processed glass, aluminum, vinyl parts and supplies held for use in the ordinary
course of business, are valued at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Cost is determined using a weighted-average method. Inventory
consisting of certain job specific materials not yet finished (work in process) are valued using the specific identification method.
Cost for finished product inventory are recorded and maintained at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Cost includes raw materials
and direct and applicable indirect manufacturing overheads.
Reserves
for excess or slow-moving raw materials inventories are updated based on historical experience of a variety of factors including sales
volume and levels of inventories at the end of the period. The Company does not maintain allowances for the lower of cost or market for
inventories of finished products as its products are manufactured based on firm orders rather than built-to-stock.
**Property,
Plant and Equipment**
Property,
plant and equipment are recorded at cost. Significant improvements and renewals that extend the useful life of the asset are capitalized.
Interest caused while acquired property is under construction and installation are capitalized. Repairs and maintenance are charged to
expense as incurred. When property is retired or otherwise disposed of, the cost and related accumulated depreciation are removed from
the accounts and any related gains or losses are included in income as a reduction to or increase in selling, general and administrative
expenses. Depreciation is computed on a straight-line basis, based on the following estimated useful lives:
Schedule

| 
Buildings | | 
20 years | |
| 
Aircraft | |

| 
Furniture and fixtures | |

The
Company also records within property, plant and equipment all the underlying assets of a finance lease. Initial recognition of these
assets is done at the present value of all future lease payments. A capital lease is a lease in which the lessor transferred substantially
all the benefits and risks associated with the ownership of the property.
**Long
Lived Assets**
The
Company periodically reviews the carrying values of its long lived assets when events or changes in circumstances would indicate that
it is more likely than not that their carrying values may exceed their realizable values, and record impairment charges when considered
necessary.
When
circumstances indicate that an impairment may have occurred, the Company tests such assets for recoverability by comparing the estimated
undiscounted future cash flows expected to result from the use of such assets and their eventual disposition to their carrying amounts.
If the undiscounted future cash flows are less than the carrying amount of the asset, an impairment loss, measured as the excess of the
carrying value of the asset over its estimated fair value, is recognized. Fair value is determined through various valuation techniques,
including discounted cash flow models, quoted market values and third-party independent appraisals, as considered necessary.
**Goodwill**
We
review goodwill for impairment each year on December 31st or more frequently when events or significant changes in circumstances
indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable. Under ASC 350-20-35-4 through 35-8A, the goodwill impairment test requires a
comparison of the fair value of the reporting unit with its carrying amount, including goodwill. If the carrying amount of the reporting
unit is greater than zero and its fair value exceeds its carrying amount, goodwill of the reporting unit is considered not impaired.
The Company has only one reporting unit and as such the impairment analysis was done by comparing the Companys market capitalization
with its book value of equity. As of December 31, 2024, the Companys market capitalization substantially exceeded its book value
of equity and as such no impairment of goodwill was indicated. See Note 11- Goodwill and Intangible Assets for additional information.
**Intangible
Assets**
Intangible
assets with definite lives subject to amortization are amortized on a straight-line basis. We also review these intangibles for impairment
when events or significant changes in circumstance indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable. Events or circumstances that
indicate that impairment testing may be required include changes in building codes and regulation, loss of key personnel or a significant
adverse change in business climate or regulations. There were no triggering events or circumstances noted and as such no impairment was
needed for the intangible assets subject to amortization. See Note 11 Goodwill and Intangible Assets for additional information.
| F-10 | |
**Leases**
We
determine if an arrangement is a lease at inception. We include finance lease right-of-use assets as part of property and equipment and
the lease liability as part of our current portion of long-term debt and long-term debt on our Consolidated Balance Sheet. Leases considered
short-term are not capitalized, given our election not to recognize right-of-use assets and lease liabilities arising from short-term
leases, but instead considered operating leases and the resulting rental expense is recognized on our Consolidated Statement of Operations
as incurred.
Finance
lease right-of-use assets and lease liabilities are recognized based on the present value of the future lease payments over the lease
term at commencement date. As most of our leases do not provide an implicit rate, we use our incremental borrowing rate based on the
information available at commencement date in determining the present value of future payments. Our lease terms may include options to
extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that we will exercise that option.
**Financial
Liabilities**
Financial
liabilities correspond to the financing obtained by the Company through bank credit facilities and accounts payable to suppliers and
creditors. Financial liabilities are initially recognized based on their fair value, which is usually equal to the transaction value
less directly attributable costs. Subsequently, such financial liabilities are carried at their amortized cost according to the effective
interest rate method determined at initial recognition and recognized in the results of the period during the time of amortization of
the financial obligation.
**Fair
Value of Financial Instruments**
ASC
820, *Fair Value Measurements*, establishes a fair value hierarchy which requires us to maximize the use of observable inputs and
minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. We primarily apply the market approach for financial assets and liabilities
measured at fair value on a recurring basis. Fair value is the price we would receive to sell and asset or pay to transfer a liability
in an orderly transaction with a market participant at the measurement date. In the absence of active markets for identical assets or
liabilities, such measurements involve developing assumptions based on market observable data and, in the absence of such data, internal
information that is consistent with what market participants would use in a hypothetical transaction that occurs at the measurement date.
The
standard describes three level of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:
Level
1: Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level
2: Observable inputs other than Level 1 prices, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that
are not active; or other inputs that are observable by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.
Level
3: Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or
liabilities.
See
Note 16 Hedging Activities and Fair Value Measurements.
**Derivative
Financial Instruments**
The
Company recognizes all derivative financial instruments as either assets or liabilities at fair value on the consolidated balance sheet.
The unrealized gains or losses arising from changes in fair value of derivative instruments that are designated and qualify as cash flow
hedges, are recorded in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income. Amounts in Accumulated other comprehensive loss on the consolidated
balance sheet are reclassified into the consolidated statement of income in the same period or periods during which the hedged transactions
are settled.
**Revenue
Recognition**
Our
principal sources of revenue are derived from product sales, sometimes referred to as standard form sales, and supply and installation
contracts, sometimes referred to as revenues from fixed price contracts. We identified one single performance obligation for both forms
of sales. Revenue is recognized when control is transferred to our customers. For product sales, the performance obligations are satisfied
at a point in time and control is deemed to be transferred.
Approximately
27% of the Companys consolidated net sales is generated by supply and installation contracts with customers that require the Company
to design, develop, test, manufacture, and install windows according to the customers specifications. These contracts are primarily
multi-year contracts with real estate general contractors and are generally priced on a fixed-price basis and are invoiced based on contract
progress.
To
determine the proper revenue recognition method, the Company first evaluates each of its contractual arrangements to identify its performance
obligations. A performance obligation is a promise in a contract to transfer a distinct good or service to the customer. All the Companys
contracts have a single performance obligation because the promise to transfer the individual good or service is not separately identifiable
from other promises within the contract and is, therefore, not distinct. These contractual arrangements either require the use of a highly
specialized manufacturing process to provide goods according to customer specifications or represent a bundle of contracted goods and
services that are integrated and together represent a combined output, which may include the delivery of multiple units.
| F-11 | |
These
performance obligations are satisfied over time. Sales are recognized over time when control is continuously transferred to the customer
during the contract. The continuous transfer of control to the customer is supported by contract clauses that provide for progress or
performance-based payments. Generally, if a customer unilaterally terminates a contract, the Company has the right to receive payment
for costs incurred plus a reasonable profit for products and services that do not have alternative use to the Company.
Sales
are recorded using the cost-to-cost method on supply and installation contracts that include performance obligations satisfied over time.
These sales are generally recorded at amounts equal to the ratio of actual cumulative costs incurred divided by total estimated costs
at completion, multiplied by (i) the transaction price, less (ii) the cumulative sales recognized in prior periods.
Accounting
for the sales and profits on performance obligations for which progress is measured using the cost-to-cost method involves the preparation
of estimates of: (1) transaction price and (2) total costs at completion, which is equal to the sum of the actual incurred costs to date
on the contract and the estimated costs to complete the contracts statement of work. Incurred costs include labor, material, and
overhead and represent work performed, which corresponds with and thereby represents the transfer of ownership to the customer. Performance
obligations are satisfied over time when the risk of ownership has been passed to the customer and/or services are performed. The estimated
profit or loss at completion on a contract is equal to the difference between the transaction price and the total estimated cost at completion.
Contract
modifications routinely occur to account for changes in contract specifications or requirements. In most cases, contract modifications
are for goods or services that are not distinct and, therefore, are accounted for as part of the existing contract. Transaction price
estimates include additional consideration for submitted contract modifications or claims when the Company believes it has an enforceable
right to the modification or claim, the amount can be reliably estimated, and its realization is reasonably assured. Amounts representing
modifications accounted for as part of the existing contract are included in the transaction price and recognized as an adjustment to
sales on a cumulative catch-up basis.
The
Companys supply and installation contracts allow for progress payments to bill the customer as contract costs are incurred and
the customer often retains a small portion of the contract price until satisfactory completion of the contractual statement of work,
which is a retainage of approximately 10%. The Company records an asset for unbilled receivables due to completing more work than the
progress payment schedule allows to collect at a point in time. For certain supply and installation contracts, the Company receives advance
payments. Advanced payments are not considered a significant financing component because they are a negotiated contract term to ensure
the customer meets its financial obligation, particularly when there are significant upfront working capital requirements. The Company
records a liability for advance payments received in excess of sales recognized, which is presented as a contract liability on the balance
sheet.
Revisions
or adjustments to estimates of the transaction price, estimated costs at completion and estimated profit or loss of a performance obligation
are often required as work progresses under a contract, as experience is gained, as facts and circumstances change and as new information
is obtained, even though the scope of work required under the contract may not change. Revisions or adjustments may also be required
if contract modifications occur. While there are various factors that can affect the accuracy of cost estimates related to the revision
of the proper allocation of indirect labor and indirect material costs to each project, such estimates are made based on the most updated
historical information and margins of those indirect costs over the associated revenues and on all relevant information associated with
each specific project at any point in time. The impact of revisions in profit or loss estimates are recognized on a cumulative catch-up
basis in the period in which the revisions are made. The revisions in contract estimates, if significant, can materially affect the Companys
results of operations and cash flows, as well as reduce the valuations of contract assets and inventories, and in some cases result in
liabilities to complete contracts in a loss position. The Company recognizes a liability for non-recurring obligations as situations
considering that projects actual costs are usually adjusted to estimated costs. The Company did not recognize sales for performance obligations
satisfied in prior periods during year ended December 31, 2025.
**Shipping
and Handling Costs**
The
Company classifies amounts billed to customers related to shipping and handling as product revenues. The Company records and presents
shipping and handling costs in selling expenses.
| F-12 | |
**Sales
Tax and Value Added Taxes**
The
Company accounts for sales taxes and value added taxes imposed on its goods and services on a net basis value added taxes paid
for goods and services purchased is netted against value added tax collected from customers and the net amount is paid to the government.
The current value added tax rate in Colombia for all of the Companys products is 19%. A municipal industry and commerce tax (ICA)
sales tax of 0.7% is payable on all of the Companys products sold in the Colombian market.
**Product
Warranties**
The
Company offers product warranties in connection with the sale and installation of its products that are competitive in the markets in
which the products are sold. Standard warranties depend upon the product and service and are generally from five to ten years for architectural
glass, curtain wall, laminated and tempered glass, window and door products. Warranties are not priced or sold separately and do not
provide the customer with services or coverages in addition to the assurance that the product complies with original agreed-upon specifications.
Claims are settled by replacement of the warranty products. The cost associated with product warranties was $1,410, $2,597, and $1,860,
during the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024, and 2023, respectively.
**Advertising
Costs**
Advertising
costs are expensed as they are incurred and are included in general and administrative expenses. Advertising costs for the years ended
December 31, 2025, 2024, and 2023, amounted to approximately $2,612, $2,502, and $2,250, respectively.
**Employee
Benefits**
The
Company provides benefits to its employees in accordance with Colombian labor laws. Employee benefits do not give rise to any long-term
liability.
**Income
Taxes**
The
Companys operations in Colombia are subject to the taxing jurisdiction of the Republic of Colombia. Tecnoglass LLC, Tecnoglass
RE LLC, GM&P, and ESW LLC are U.S. entities based in Florida, and are subject to the taxing jurisdiction of the United States. VS
is subject the taxing jurisdiction in the Republic of Panama. Tecnoglass is subject to the taxing jurisdiction of the Cayman Islands.
Annual tax periods prior to December 2016 are no longer subject to examination by taxing authorities in Colombia.
The
company accounts for income taxes using the asset and liability approach of accounting for income taxes (ASC 740 Income Taxes).
Under this approach, deferred taxes represent the future tax consequences expected to occur when the reported amounts of assets and liabilities
are recovered or paid. The provision for income taxes represents income taxes paid or payable for the current year plus the change in
deferred taxes during the year. Deferred taxes result from differences between the financial and tax basis of the Companys assets
and liabilities and are adjusted for changes in tax rates and tax laws when changes are enacted. For each tax jurisdiction in which the
Company operates, deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset against one another and are presented as a single noncurrent amount
within the consolidated balance sheets.
The
Company presents deferred tax assets and liabilities net as either a non-current asset or liability, depending on the net deferred tax
position. The Company recognizes the financial statement effects of uncertain income tax positions when it is more likely than not, based
on the technical merits, that the position will be sustained upon examination. The Company accrues for other tax contingencies when it
is probable that a liability to a taxing authority has been incurred and the amount of the contingency can be reasonably estimated. Interest
accrued related to unrecognized tax and income tax related penalties are included in the provision for income taxes. The uncertain income
taxes positions are recorded in Taxes payable in the consolidated balance sheets.
**Earnings
per Share**
The
Company computes basic earnings per share by dividing net income attributable to parent by the weighted-average number of ordinary shares
outstanding during the period. Income per share assuming dilution (diluted earnings per share) would give effect to dilutive potential
ordinary shares outstanding during the period. See Note 19 Shareholders Equity for further detail on the calculation of
earnings per share.

**Recently
Issued Accounting Pronouncements**
In
December 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-11 Interim Reporting (Topic 270). The Board is issuing amendments in this Update
to improve the guidance in Topic 270, Interim Reporting, by improving the navigability of the required interim disclosures and clarifying
when that guidance is applicable. The amendments also provide additional guidance on what disclosures should be provided in interim reporting
periods. The amendments in this Update are effective for interim reporting periods within annual reporting periods beginning after December
15, 2027, for public business entities and for interim reporting periods within annual reporting 3 periods beginning after December 15,
2028, for entities other than public business entities. Early adoption is permitted for all entities. The Company is currently evaluating
the potential effect of this ASU on its interim consolidated financial statements
In
November 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-09 Derivative and Hedging (Topic 815). Consistent with the original objective of
Update 2017-12, the objective of this Update is to more closely align hedge accounting with the economics of an entitys risk management
activities. The amendments included in the five issues addressed in this Update are intended to better reflect those strategies in financial
reporting by enabling entities to achieve and maintain hedge accounting for highly effective economic hedges of forecasted transactions.
The five issues addressed are: Issue 1: Similar Risk Assessment for Cash Flow Hedges, Issue 2: Hedging Forecasted Interest Payments on
Choose-Your-Rate Debt Instruments, Issue 3: Cash Flow Hedges of Nonfinancial Forecasted Transactions, Issue 4: Net Written Options as
Hedging Instruments and Issue 5: Foreign-Currency-Denominated Debt Instrument as Hedging Instrument and Hedged Item (Dual Hedge). For
public business entities, the amendments in this Update are effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026,
and interim periods within those annual reporting periods. The Company is currently evaluating the potential effect of this ASU on its
consolidated financial statements.
In
September 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-06 Intangibles-Goodwill and other-Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40). The
Board is issuing this Update to modernize the accounting for software costs that are accounted for under Subtopic 350-40, IntangiblesGoodwill
and OtherInternal-Use Software (referred to as internal-use software). Feedback from preparer and practitioner stakeholders
on the 2021 FASB Invitation to Comment, Agenda Consultation, indicated that the accounting for software costs should be a top priority
for the Board. Considering this feedback, the Board decided to make targeted improvements to Subtopic 350-40 to increase the operability
of the recognition guidance considering different methods of software development. The amendments in this Update are effective for all
entities for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027, and interim reporting periods 4 within those annual reporting
periods. Early adoption is permitted as of the beginning of an annual reporting period. The Company is currently evaluating the potential
effect of this ASU on its consolidated financial statements.
**Accounting
Standards Adopted in 2025**
In
December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures. The Board
is issuing the amendments in this Update to enhance the transparency and decision usefulness of income tax disclosures. Investors, lenders,
creditors, and other allocators of capital (collectively, investors) indicated that the existing income tax disclosures
should be enhanced to provide information to better assess how an entitys operations and related tax risks and tax planning and
operational opportunities affect its tax rate and prospects for future cash flows. Investors currently rely on the rate reconciliation
table and other disclosures, including total income taxes paid, to evaluate income tax risks and opportunities. While investors find
these disclosures helpful, they suggested possible enhancements to better (1) understand an entitys exposure to potential changes
in jurisdictional tax legislation and the ensuing risks and opportunities, (2) assess income tax information that affects cash flow forecasts
and capital allocation decisions, and (3) identify potential opportunities to increase future cash flows. The amendments in this Update
address investor requests for more transparency about income tax information through improvements to income tax disclosures primarily
related to the rate reconciliation and income taxes paid information. For public business entities, the amendments in this Update are
effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024. The Company prospectively adopted this standard effective January 1,
2025. For further information, refer to Note 15- Income Taxes.

**Note
3. Acquisitions**
**Contiglass
Asset Acquisition, LLC**
In
April 3, 2025, Tecnoglass acquired certain assets and assumed liabilities of Florida-based Continental Glass Systems, LLC., a premier
provider of innovative architectural glass and glazing solutions in the Southeast U.S., to create wholly owned Contiglass Asset Acquisition,
LLC (Contiglass). This acquisition included a manufacturing plant, various intangibles, and a substantial project backlog
in both execution and pipeline phases. This transaction is considered a business combination under U.S. GAAP. Continentals production
capabilities, high-quality product portfolio, and reputation for excellence strengthens Tecnoglass U.S. market presence, broadens
its client reach, and creates synergies that reinforce Tecnoglass leadership position in the architectural glass industry. Additionally,
the Company anticipates operational benefits as it integrates Continentals supply chains into its existing manufacturing operations.
The
purchase price for the acquisition was $10,429, of which $6,588 of the purchase price was paid in cash by the Company on April 3, 2025.
Post-acquisition working capital adjustment of $253 was paid 45 days after transaction closing date, with the remaining amount to be
payable by the Company in cash within 365 days after closing date. The total amount of acquisition-related costs was $588, which are
included within general and administrative expenses in the Statement of operations for the period ending December 31|, 2025.
The
total purchase price is $10,429. Under ASC 805, a company can apply measurement period adjustments during the twelve-month period after
the date of acquisition. During this period, the acquirer may adjust preliminary amounts recognized at the acquisition date to their
subsequently determined final fair values. The allocation of the purchase price was based on managements judgment after evaluation
of several factors, including a preliminary valuation assessment. Finalization of the analysis has not been completed and could result
in measurement periods adjustments that could change the composition of current assets, fixed assets, intangible assets, goodwill, and
liabilities. Goodwill is not expected to be deductible for tax purposes.

4. Long Term Investments**
**Saint-Gobain
Joint Venture**
In
2019 we entered into a joint venture agreement with Compagnie de Saint-Gobain S.A. (Saint-Gobain), a world leader in the
production of float glass, a key component of our manufacturing process, whereby we acquired a 25.8% minority ownership interest in Vidrio
Andino, a Colombia-based subsidiary of Saint-Gobain. Income from this investment is recorded using the equity method and is presented
within the Consolidated Statement of Operations as a component of non-operating income as the Company is not subject to income tax over
this investment.
The
joint venture agreement includes plans to build a new plant that will be located approximately 20 miles from our primary manufacturing
facility in Barranquilla Colombia, in which we will also have a 25.8% interest. The new plant will be funded with proceeds from the original
cash contribution made by us, operating cash flows from the Bogota plant, debt incurred at the joint venture level that will not be consolidated
into our company.
In
June of 2025 the Group entered into a partnership with the company Storm Armour, LLC to create the newco named Storm Armour Solutions,
LLC which has the purpose of participating in the sale, sublicensing, and distribution of licensed products in the areas of influence,
under a licensing agreement. To join this business Tecno Inc created a wholly owned subsidiary named Tecnoglass Armour, LLC, a Limited
Liability Company based in the Florida State. Tecnoglass Armour, LLC has a 60% of the capital contribution of Storm Armour Solutions,
LLC.

The
accounting policies of the single segment are the same as those described in the summary of significant accounting policies. The chief
operating decision maker (CODM) assesses performance and decides how to allocate resources based on gross profit and net
income that also is reported on the income statement as consolidated net income, cash flows from operations which are reported on the
consolidated statement of cash flows, along with certain non-G.A.A.P metrics. These metrics are used to monitor budgeted versus actual
results, and competitive analysis by benchmarking to the Companys competitors. Significant segment expenses include cost of sales,
selling expense, and general and administrative expenses. Other segment items included in consolidated net income are interest expense,
other expense, net and the provision for income taxes, which are reflected in the consolidated statements of comprehensive income. The
Companys CODM are the CEO and COO together as a group.
The
Company performs intra-entity sales and transfers within its single segment comprised of several vertically integrated processes including
its main manufacturing operations in Colombia and distribution and installation in the United States. The Company considers its operations
to be a single reporting segment because it only produces architectural glass and window systems to serve similar markets in a vertically
integrated platform.
The
measure of segment assets is reported on the balance sheet as total consolidated assets.

**Remaining
Performance Obligations**
As
of December 31, 2025, the Company had $912.2 million of remaining performance obligations, which represents the transaction price of
firm orders minus sales recognized from inception to date. Remaining performance obligations exclude letters of intent, unexercised contract
options, verbal commitments, and potential orders under basic ordering agreements. The Company expects to recognize 100% of sales relating
to existing performance obligations within two years, of which $492.9 million are expected to be recognized during the year ended December
31, 2026, $354.8 million during the year ended December 31, 2027, and $64.5 million thereafter.
| F-17 | |
**Contract
Assets and Contract Liabilities**
Contract
assets represent accumulated incurred costs and earned profits on contracts with customers that have been recorded as sales but have
not been billed to customers and are classified as current. As a result, the timing of the satisfaction of performance obligations might
differ from the timing of payments, given some conditions must be met before billing can occur. Contract assets also include a portion
of the amounts billed on certain fixed price contracts that are withheld by the customer as a retainage until a final good receipt of
the complete project to the customers satisfaction. Contract liabilities consist of advance payments and billings in excess of costs
incurred and deferred revenue, and represent amounts received in excess of sales recognized on contracts. The Company classifies advance
payments and billings in excess of costs incurred as current, and deferred revenue as current or non-current based on the expected timing
of sales recognition. Contract assets and contract liabilities are determined on a contract-by-contract basis at the end of each reporting
period. The non-current portion of contract liabilities is included in other liabilities in the Companys consolidated balance
sheets.
The
table below presents the components of net contract assets (liabilities).

13. Supplier Finance Program**
Tecnoglass,
Inc. has established payment times to suppliers for the purchase of goods and services, which normally range between 30 and 60 days.
In the normal course of business, suppliers may require liquidity and manage, through third parties, the advanced payment of invoices.
The Company allows its suppliers the option to payments in advance of an invoice due date, through a third-party finance provider or
intermediary, with the purpose of allowing suppliers to obtain the required liquidity. For these purposes, suppliers present to Tecnoglass,
Inc. the third-party finance provider or intermediary with whom they will carry out the finance program and establish an agreement, through
which the invoices will be paid by the third-party finance provider or intermediary once Tecnoglass, Inc. has confirmed the invoices
as valid. Once the Company confirms the invoices are valid, the third-party finance provider or intermediary proceeds with the payment
to the supplier. Subsequently, Tecnoglass, Inc. pays the invoices for goods or services to the third-party finance provider or intermediary
selected by the supplier. Payment times do not vary from those initially agreed with the supplier, as stated in the invoices factored
by the supplier (i.e. between 30 and 60 days). Pursuant to the supplier finance programs, the Company has not been required to pledge
any assets as security nor to provide any guarantee to third-party finance provider or intermediary.
As
of December 31, 2025, the obligations outstanding related to the supplier finance program amounted to $13,206, recorded as current liabilities,
in the following balance sheet lines: Trade accounts payable and accrued expenses ($11,740) & due to related parties ($1,466).

In
September 2025, the Company entered into a new Senior Secured Credit Facility , transitioning from a term loan and revolving facility
structure to a fully committed revolving facility structure which allowed the company (i) increase total committed borrowing capacity
from $150 million to $500 million, (ii) reduce borrowing costs by approximately 25 basis points, and (iii) extend the initial maturity
date by five years to December 2030. Borrowings under the new facility bear interest at the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (SOFR) with
no floor, plus a spread of 1.25 % based on the Companys net leverage ratio (previously 1.50 % over SOFR). The effective interest
rate for the facility, including deferred issuance costs, is 6.98 % as of December 31, 2025. The Company incurred total costs and fees
of $2,783 in lender fees which were capitalized as deferred financing costs, and are presented as a deduction from the related debt liability.
The
transaction was accounted for as a debt extinguishment under ASC 470-50. Accordingly, the prior term-loan and revolving credit facilities
were derecognized, and the new revolving facility was initially recognized at its principal amount, net of deferred financing costs.
As a result, the Company recognized a loss on extinguishment of debt of $1,354, representing $1,302 for the write-off of the remaining
unamortized deferred financing costs related to the prior term-loan and revolving credit facilities, and $52 of termination costs associated
with closing the prior facility. Cash proceeds from the new facility and repayments of the extinguished debt are reflected within financing
activities in the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows. Of the $2,783 of total fees incurred, $1,803 were deducted from the
gross proceeds and presented net within Proceeds from debt, with the remaining $980 recorded as cash outflows classified
under Deferred financing costs and debt issuance fees within financing activities. During Q4 2025, the company drew down
$60 million from its revolving credit facility.

We
are subject to taxation in the U.S. and various state and foreign jurisdictions. Primarily the state of Florida, the Republic of Colombia
and the Republic of Panama. As of December 31, 2025, our tax years 2020 to 2024 remain subject to examination by tax authorities.
On
July 4, 2025, the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (OBBBA) was enacted, reinstating 100% bonus depreciation, increasing Section
179 expensing limits, modifying the Section 163(j) interest limitation, full expensing of domestic R&D and deductibility of qualified
production structures. As these provisions are temporary in nature, their current and deferred tax effects offset, resulting in no material
impact on the Companys effective tax rate.
**Note
16. Hedging Activities and Fair Value Measurements**
**Hedging
Activity**
During
the quarter ended March 31, 2022, we entered into several interest rate swap contracts thorough November of 2026 to hedge the interest
rate fluctuations related to our outstanding debt. The effective date of the contract is December 31, 2022 and, thus, we shall have payment
dates each quarter, commencing March 31 2023. During the quarter ended December 31, 2024, we entered into several foreign currency non-delivery
option contracts to hedge the fluctuations in the exchange rate between the Colombian Peso and the U.S. Dollar. Our contracts are designated
as cash flow hedges since they are highly effective in offsetting changes in the cash flows attributable to forecasted LIBOR and Colombian
Peso denominated costs and expenses, respectively.
We
record our hedge contracts at fair value and consider our credit risk for contracts in a liability position, and our counter-partys
credit risk for contracts in an asset position, in determining fair value. We assess our counter-partys risk of non-performance
when measuring the fair value of financial instruments in an asset position by evaluating their financial position, including cash on
hand, as well as their credit ratings.
Due
to the Libor discontinuation, on June 21, 2023, the Company amended the Interest Rate Swap contract from Libor 1 Month plus spread to
SOFR 3 Months plus spread. The settlements of the instruments remain under the existing conditions; however, the fixed leg goes from
1.93% to 1.87%. Regarding the conditions of our outstanding debt, only Libor was replaced by SOFR, maintaining the other initial conditions.
On
September 4, 2025 Tecnoglass, Inc amended its senior secured revolving credit facility to (i) increase the borrowing capacity under its
committed Line of credit from $150 million to $500 million, (ii) reduce its borrowing costs by an approximate 25 basis points, and (iii)
extend the initial maturity date by five years to the end of 2030. Borrowings under the credit facility will now bear interest at the
Secured Overnight Financing Rate (SOFR) with no floor plus a spread of 1.25%, based on the Companys net leverage ratio, compared
to a prior spread of 1.50%. The facility was led by Wells Fargo Bank N.A. as Administrative Agent; with BMO Bank N.A, Citibank N.A, Citizens
Bank N.A, First Citizens Bank & Trust Company and J.P. Morgan Chase Bank N.A, as Joint Lead Arrangers.
As
of December 31, 2025, the fair value of our interest rate swap and foreign currency non-delivery option contracts was in a net asset
position of $2.2 million. We had 4 outstanding interest rate swap contracts of $110 million through November 2026 as an economic hedge
and 6 nondelivery option contracts to exchange $15 million U.S. Dollars to Colombian Pesos through June 2026.
| F-25 | |
Because
of the discontinuation of the hedge accounting for the interest rate swap in Q2 of 2025, we didnt assess the effectiveness of
this instrument.
The
gain or loss on our foreign currency non-delivery option contracts are reported as a component of the earnings. The change in the fair
value of the interest rate swap designated as an economic hedge will be included in earnings at the moment of its valuation.
As
of December 31,2025, there are not no gains or losses, net, recognized in the accumulated other comprehensive income for
non-delivery option and interest rate swap contracts.
The
fair value of our interest rate swap and foreign currency non-delivery option hedges is classified in the accompanying consolidated balance

**Fair
Value Measurements**
The
Company accounts for financial assets and liabilities in accordance with accounting standards that define fair value and establish a
framework for measuring fair value. The hierarchy prioritizes the inputs into three broad levels. Level 1 inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted)
in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Level 2 inputs are quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active
markets or inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly through market corroboration, for substantially
the full term of the financial instrument. Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs based on the Companys assumptions used to measure
assets and liabilities at fair value. A financial assets or liabilitys classification within the hierarchy is determined
based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement.
The
carrying amounts of the Companys financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable
and advances from customers approximate their fair value due to their relatively short-term maturities. The Company bases its fair value
estimate for long term debt obligations on its internal valuation that all debt is floating rate debt based on current interest rates.
The
fair values of derivatives used to manage interest rate risks are based on LIBOR rates and interest rate swap curves. Measurement of
our derivative assets and liabilities is considered a level 2 measurement. To carry out the swap valuation, the definition of the fixed
leg (obligation) and variable leg (right) is used. Once the projected flows are obtained in both fixed and variable rates, the regression
analysis is performed for prospective effectiveness test. The projection curve contains the forward interest rates to project flows at
a variable rate and the discount curve contains the interest rates to discount future flows, using the one-month USD Libor curve.
As
of December 31, 2025, financial instruments carried at amortized cost that do not approximate fair value consist of long-term debt. See
Note 14- Debt. The fair value of long-term debt was calculated based on an analysis of future cash flows discounted with our average
cost of debt, which is based on market rates, which are level 2 inputs.
The
following table summarizes the fair value and carrying amounts of our long-term debt:
