Note 2. Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation and Use of Estimates
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“US GAAP”) and pursuant to the accounting and disclosure rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) for interim reporting purposes. The results reported in these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are not necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for the entire year. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the information contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024. The year-end condensed balance sheet data was derived from the audited financial statements in the Annual Report on Form 10-K but does not include all disclosures required by US GAAP.
The preparation of these unaudited condensed 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 Company’s financial statements. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions and conditions. Estimates utilized in the preparation of these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements relate to the collectability of account receivables, the valuation of inventories, estimated earnings on uncompleted contracts, useful lives and potential impairment of long-lived assets. Changes in estimates are reflected in the periods during which they become known. Actual amounts may differ from these estimates and could differ materially. These financial statements reflect all adjustments that in the opinion of management are necessary for a fair statement of the financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the period presented, and are of a normal, recurring nature.
The Company has one operating segment, Architectural Glass and Windows, which is also its reporting segment. The segment comprises the design, manufacturing, distribution, marketing and installation of high-specification architectural glass and window products sold to residential and commercial markets.
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. 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. These metrics are used to monitor budgeted versus actual results, and competitive analysis by benchmarking to the Company’s competitors. The Company’s CODM are Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Operating Officer acting 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.

Principles of Consolidation
These unaudited consolidated financial statements consolidate Tecnoglass, its subsidiaries Tecnoglass S.A.S (“TG”), C.I. Energía Solar S.A.S E.S. Windows (“ES”), ES Windows LLC (“ESW LLC”), Tecnoglass LLC, Tecno RE LLC, GM&P Consulting and Glazing Contractors (“GM&P”), Componenti USA LLC, ES Metals SAS (“ES Metals”), and Ventanas Solar S.A (“VS”), which are entities wholly owned by Tecnoglass. 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.
Derivative Financial Instruments
The Company recognizes all derivative financial instruments as either assets or liabilities at fair value on the condensed 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 condensed consolidated statement of comprehensive income. Amounts in accumulated other comprehensive loss on the condensed consolidated balance sheet are reclassified into the condensed consolidated statement of income in the same period or periods during which the hedged transactions are settled.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, “Reporting Comprehensive Income—Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40)”. The Board is issuing this Update to improve the disclosures about a public business entity’s expenses and address requests from investors for more detailed information about the types of expenses (including purchases of inventory, employee compensation, depreciation, amortization, and depletion) in commonly presented expense captions (such as cost of sales, SG&A, and research and development). The amendments in this Update are effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the potential effect of this ASU on its consolidated financial statements.
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 entity’s 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 entity’s 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. This Update also includes certain other amendments to improve the effectiveness of income tax disclosures. Specifically, the amendments require annual disclosure of: (i) a detailed rate reconciliation table that includes specific categories with separate disclosure of items that are equal to or greater than 5% of the statutory tax applied to pretax income; (ii) income taxes paid (net of refunds received), disaggregated by federal, state, and foreign amounts; and (iii) income taxes paid (net) further disaggregated by individual jurisdiction when such amounts are equal to or greater than 5% of total income taxes paid. Additionally, the Company must disclose pretax income (or loss) from continuing operations and income tax expense (or benefit) from continuing operations, each disaggregated between domestic and foreign. The amendments in this Update are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted, and should be applied on a prospective basis and retrospective application is permitted.

Note 4. – Revenues, Trade Accounts Receivable, Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities
Disaggregation of Total Net Sales

Trade Accounts Receivable
In the ordinary course of business, we extend credit to customers on a generally non-collateralized basis. The Company maintains an allowance for expected credit losses which is based on management’s assessments of the amount which may become uncollectible in the future and is determined through consideration of our write-off history, specific identification of uncollectible accounts based in part on the customer’s past due balance (based on contractual terms), and consideration of prevailing economic and industry conditions. Uncollectible accounts are written off after repeated attempts to collect from the customer have been unsuccessful.
Trade accounts receivable consist of the following:

Contract Assets and 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. In addition, 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 long-term liabilities in the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Note 7. Supplier Finance Program
Tecnoglass, Inc. has established payment terms 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 March 31, 2025, the obligations outstanding related to the supplier finance program amounted to $

Note 9. Hedging Activity and Fair Value Measurements
Hedging Activity
During the quarter ended March 31, 2022, we entered into several interest rate swap contracts 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-party’s credit risk for contracts in an asset position, in determining fair value. We assess our counter-party’s 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

We
assess the effectiveness of our interest rate swap and foreign currency non-delivery option contracts by comparing the change in the
fair value of the interest rate swap and foreign currency non-delivery option contracts to the change in the expected cash to be paid
for the hedged item. The effective portion of the gain or loss on our interest rate swap and foreign currency non-delivery option contracts
is reported as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income and is reclassified into earnings in the same line item in the income
statement as the hedged item in the same period or periods during which the transaction affects earnings. The amount of gains, net, recognized
in the “accumulated other comprehensive income” line item in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet as of March 31,

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 Company’s assumptions used to measure assets and liabilities at fair value. A financial asset’s or liability’s 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 Company’s 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 in Colombia.
The fair values of derivatives used to manage interest rate risks are based on SOFR 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 March 31, 2025, financial instruments carried at amortized cost that do not approximate fair value consist of long-term debt. See Note 8 – Debt. The fair value of long-term debt was calculated based on an analysis of future cash flows discounted at current market rates (which are level 2 inputs).
The following table summarizes the fair value and carrying amounts of our long-term debt:

General Legal Matters
From time to time, the Company is involved in legal matters arising in the regular course of business. Some disputes are derived directly from our construction projects, related to supply and installation, and even though deemed ordinary, they may involve significant monetary damages. We are also subject to other type of litigations arising from employment practices, worker’s compensation, automobile claims and general liability. It is very difficult to predict precisely what the outcome of these litigations 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 the business, financial condition or results of operations of the Company.

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q includes forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). We have based these forward-looking statements on our current expectations and projections about future events. These forward-looking statements are subject to known and unknown risks, uncertainties and assumptions about us that may cause our actual results, levels of activity, performance or achievements to be materially different from any future results, levels of activity, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by terminology such as “may,” “should,” “could,” “would,” “expect,” “plan,” “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “continue,” or the negative of such terms or other similar expressions. Factors that might cause or contribute to such a discrepancy include, but are not limited to, those described in our other Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) filings. References to “we”, “us” or “our” are to Tecnoglass Inc., except where the context requires otherwise. The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes thereto included elsewhere in this report.
Overview
We are experienced and highly skilled in the vertical integration of 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 Forbe’s list of America’s 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 as the third largest glass fabricator 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.
Our products are manufactured in a 5.6 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 29 th St (New York). Norwegian Cruise Line Terminal B (Miami), Paramount Miami Worldcenter (Miami), Via 57 West (New York), One65 Main (Cambridge), AE’O 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. 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.
| 19 |
On May 3, 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 group’s 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.

Comparison of quarterly periods ended March 31, 2025, and 2024
Revenues
Operating revenues increased $29.7 million, or 15.4%, from $192.6 during the quarter ended March 31, 2024, to $222.3 million, during the quarter ended March 31, 2025. Strong revenues during the first quarter of 2025 were driven by strong activity in the U.S market, where revenues increased $28.5 million, or 15.5% year over year, to $212.5 million during the quarter ended March 31, 2025. The increase was driven by higher residential revenues, up $15.8 million, or 21.6% year over year, resulting from strong demand momentum since 2024. Commercial market revenues increased $13.9 million, or 11.6% year over year, as we continue to execute our growing backlog. Revenues from Latin-America increased $9.8 million, or 14.0% year over year.
Gross profit
Gross profit increased $2.9 million, or 30.6%, from $74.7 million during the three months ended March 31, 2024, to $97.5 million, during the three months ended March 31, 2025. The gross profit margin during the three months ended March 31, 2025, was 43.9%, up from 38.8% during the first quarter of 2024, primarily related to better pricing on certain residential market products, improved operating leverage, and a favorable FX dynamic impacting our COP denominated costs, as the Colombian peso depreciated 7.1% against the U.S. dollar year over year.
Expenses
Operating expenses increased $8.8 million, or 26.3%, from $33.6 million to $42.5 million for the quarters ended March 31, 2024 and 2025, respectively. The increase resulted primarily from recent Tariffs on imports into the U.S. which generated $4.7 million expense. Additionally, selling, general and administrative expenses grew to larger operation and ongoing geographical expansion over the US market, including inflation adjustment increases on personnel expense and fees.
| 20 |
Other operating income
During the three months ended March 31, 2025, the Company recorded other operating income of $4.3 million related to a gain on the sale of an aircraft, without any comparable income during the prior year period.
Non operating income and expenses, net
During the three months ended March 31, 2025, and 2024, the Company recorded net non-operating income of $1.0 million and $1.1 million, respectively. Equity method income from our joint venture with Saint Gobain increased $0.3 million, or 28.5%, to 1.3 million during the quarter ended March 31, 2025, compared to $1.0 million recorded during the quarter ended March 31, 2024.
Foreign currency transaction gains and losses
During the three months ended March 31, 2025, the Company recorded a non-operating loss of $0.5 million associated with foreign currency transactions compared to a net non-operating loss of $0.2 million during the three months ended March 31, 2024.
Interest Expense and deferred cost of financing
Interest expense and deferred cost of financing decreased $0.8 million, or 36.8%, to $1.3 million during the quarter ended March 31, 2025, as the Company voluntarily prepaid $62 million during 2024 to reduce its debt balance and benefited from having a favorable interest rate hedge in place for 100% of its outstanding syndicated debt after giving effect to the voluntary prepayments.
Income Taxes
We recorded income tax expense of $17.7 and $11.2 million during the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The effective income tax rate of 29.5% for the three months ended March 31, 2025 approximates the statutory tax rate.
As a result of the foregoing, the Company recorded net income for the three months ended March 31, 2025 of $42.3 million compared to net income of $29.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024.
Liquidity
As of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, we had cash and cash equivalents of approximately $157.3 million and $134.9 million, respectively. Additionally, we currently have approximately $175.0 million available under several lines of credit.
We anticipate that the Company will continue to generate positive cashflow from operating activities throughout the remainder of the year, which we believe, 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 three months ended March 31, 2025, and 2024, we made investments primarily in building and construction and machinery and equipment in the amounts of $30.4 million and $9.9 million, respectively. Additionally, we acquired $11.1 million and $1.3 million of property plant and equipment under credit during the three months ended March 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 $1.2 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.

During the three months ended March 31, 2025, and 2024, operating activities generated approximately $46.9 million and $33.4 million, respectively. The main sources of operating cash during the three months ended March 31, 2025, were driven by contract assets and liabilities, and taxes payable. Contract assets and liabilities generated $23.1 million during the three months ended March 31, 2025, mostly due to an increase in billings in excess of costs, as main projects are being executed, and large projects from our backlog are starting operations; compared to $8.0 million used during the three months ended March 31, 2024, as we executed on our growing backlog. In addition, taxes payable generated $15.7 million during the three months ended March 31, 2025, related to higher income tax provision as a result of recent record-breaking quarters, compared with $7.1 million during the three months ended March 31, 2024. The largest use of cash in operating activities was trade accounts receivables, which used $19.0 million in the three months ended March 31, 2025, compared with a generation of $3.8 million during the prior year period, driven by a pick-up in pace of large commercial installation jobs during the first quarter of 2025, which entail longer cash cycles. Additionally, other assets used $14.9 million during the three months ended March 31, 2025, compared with $9.2 million used during the three months ended March 31, 2024, comprised primarily of prepaid value added taxes of Colombian operations.
We used $18.2 million and $10.2 million in investing activities during the three months ended March 31, 2025, and 2024, respectively. The main use of cash in investing activities during the three months ended March 31, 2025, was related to scheduled payments on previous investments to increase capacity and efficiency as well as new investments in land and equipment. During the three months ended March 31, 2025, we paid $30.4 million to acquire property plant and equipment. During the three months ended March 31, 2024, we used $9.9 million for the acquisition of property and equipment.
Financing activities used $7.4 million and $16.7 million during the three months ended March 31, 2025, and 2024, respectively. We paid $7.0 million and $4.2 million of dividends to holders of our ordinary shares during the three months ended March 31, 2025, and 2024, respectively.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
We are exposed to ongoing market risk related to changes in 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.
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 25% of our consolidated revenues and 3% of our costs and expenses are effectively incurred in Colombian pesos, thereby mitigating some of the risk associated with changes in foreign exchange rates. This portion of costs and expenses denominated in Colombian Peso excludes certain items which are transacted in Colombia using Colombian Peso but are priced in U.S. Dollars or are otherwise indexed to U.S. Dollar rates. Thus a 5% appreciation of the Colombian Peso relative to the US Dollar would result in our quarter revenues increasing by $0.3 million and our costs and expenses increasing by approximately $2.4 million, resulting in a $2.1 million decrease to net earnings based on results for the three months ended March 31, 2025.

Similarly, a significant portion of the monetary assets and liabilities of these subsidiaries are generally denominated in US Dollars, while their functional currency is the Colombian peso, thereby resulting in gains or losses from remeasurement of assets and liabilities using the end of period spot exchange rate. These subsidiaries have both monetary assets and monetary liabilities denominated in US Dollars, thereby mitigating some of the risk associated with changes in foreign exchange rate. Furthermore, we record a portion of the non-cash foreign currency transaction gains and losses from remeasurement of certain intercompany loans as other comprehensive income. Net of this, the Colombian subsidiaries’ US Dollar denominated monetary liabilities exceed their monetary assets by $15.5 million, such that a 1% devaluation of the Colombian peso will result in a loss of $0.2 million recorded in the Company’s Consolidated Statement of Operations as of March 31, 2025.
Additionally, the results of the foreign subsidiaries must be translated into US Dollars, our reporting currency, in the Company’s 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 Company’s 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 of 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.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
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 Tecnoglass Inc.´s design and operating effectiveness of the internal controls over financial reporting as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
From time to time, the Company is involved in legal matters arising in the ordinary course of business. While management believes that such matters are currently not material, there can be no assurance that matters arising in the ordinary course of business for which the Company is, or could be, involved in litigation, will not have a material adverse effect on its business, financial condition or results of operations.
Item 1A. Risk Factors
There have been no material changes to the risk factors previously disclosed in Part 1, Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024, except as follows:
Risks Related to Colombia and Other Countries Where We Operate
Our business could be negatively impacted by newly imposed U.S. tariffs and ongoing trade tensions between the U.S. and Colombia.
On April 2, 2025, President Donald Trump declared a shift in U.S. trade policy, announcing “Tariff Liberation Day.” As part of this initiative, a universal 10% tariff was imposed on imports from all countries, including Colombia, effective April 5, 2025. Additionally, a second tier of higher “reciprocal” tariffs targeting countries deemed to have unfair trade practices was declared to go into effect on April 9, 2025. While Colombia was not explicitly named among those subject to elevated tariffs, the inclusion of Colombian exports under the universal tariff lead to increased uncertainty and cost pressures on our operations.
Although no “reciprocal” tariff initiative against Colombia is active as of the date of this report, this new tariff regime underscores the unpredictability of U.S. trade policy and its potential impact on companies with international manufacturing operations. Given that our manufacturing facility is based in Colombia and 96% of our sales for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024, occurred in the United States, the imposition of even baseline tariffs could materially impact our production costs, supply chain efficiency, and price competitiveness.
Although the U.S. International Trade Commission recently reversed anti-dumping duties on Colombian aluminum imports—finding no evidence of dumping or harm to U.S. producers—the risk of renewed trade actions, shifting tariffs, or further escalation in protectionist measures remains. Any such developments could negatively affect our financial performance.
