Miami, FL – February 29, 2024 – Tecnoglass, Inc. (NYSE: TGLS) (“Tecnoglass” or the “Company”), a leading producer of high-end aluminum and vinyl windows and architectural glass for the global residential and commercial end markets, today reported financial results for the fourth quarter and full year ended December 31, 2023.

 

José Manuel Daes, Chief Executive Officer of Tecnoglass, commented, “I am proud of the Tecnoglass team for another year of strong operational accomplishments and record performance across many financial metrics. The relentless dedication to excellence across all levels of our business, coupled with our market-leading innovation and unique vertically integrated business model, are all reflected in our solid full year results. While our year-over-year margins were impacted by the sharp appreciation of the Colombian Peso during the second half of 2023, we delivered industry leading Adjusted EBITDA¹ margins in excess of 35% for the year. Our strong margin performance is attributable to our previously implemented high return automation and capacity enhancements as well as our disciplined cost control efforts. Additionally, the structural enhancements in our business, along with our prudent working capital management, helped us generate another year of exceptional cash flow. Our solid capital position has given us flexibility to invest in further structural enhancements, increase our cash dividend, return value to our shareholders through share repurchases, and improve our leverage profile with net debt to Adjusted EBITDA¹ ending the year at a record low of 0.1x. We remain committed to driving above market growth through our entry into the attractive vinyl window market, strengthening customer relationships, and further geographic diversification as we unlock additional value for all our stakeholders.”

 

Christian Daes, Chief Operating Officer of Tecnoglass, added, “Fourth quarter Adjusted EBITDA was in line with internal expectations and reflects the resiliency of our business despite the turbulent macroeconomic environment, particularly in the single-family residential end market. Our results during the quarter demonstrated our ability to leverage our unique competitive advantages to preserve margins and generate additional cash flow. We were pleased to begin shipments of our innovative vinyl window products in December 2023, which we expect to contribute more meaningfully to results in the second half of 2024 and beyond. Additionally, we reported another year of record backlog, which reflects healthy quoting and bidding activity for multi-family/commercial projects in our pipeline and provides visibility through 2024 and building into 2025. Beyond the firm backlog in place, bidding activity remains robust given the relatively favorable demographic trends within our main markets in the Southeast U.S. region. The expansion and automation investments made in recent years put us in a position to execute our growth strategy. We are very confident in our long-term vision and look forward to capturing incremental market share while taking advantage of the long-term opportunities we see across our end markets.”

 

 

Fourth Quarter 2023 Results

 

Total revenues for the fourth quarter of 2023 decreased 7.8% to $194.6 million compared to $211.1 million in the prior year quarter. Commercial activity performed in line with expectations given the projected timing of project deliveries. Single-family residential revenues were impacted by slower sequential and year-over-year activity resulting from higher interest and mortgage rates. Changes in foreign currency exchange rates had an adverse impact of $0.9 million on total revenues in the quarter.

 

Gross profit for the fourth quarter of 2023 was $83.0 million, representing a 42.6% gross margin, compared to gross profit of $110.2 million, representing a 52.2% gross margin, in the prior year quarter. The year-over-year change in gross margin reflected the impacts of unfavorable foreign exchange, lower revenues and an increased mix of installation versus product revenue during the quarter. The impact of unfavorable foreign exchange related to a Peso appreciation of 15% year-over-year for the quarter, in contrast with a non-cash short-term benefit of nearly 300 basis points during the prior year quarter related to inventories and the functional currency of our manufacturing operations in Colombia. Additionally, installation mix increased year-over-year, partially related to the step down in single-family residential revenues.

 

Selling, general and administrative expense (“SG&A”) was $32.4 million for the fourth quarter of 2023 compared to $33.4 million in the prior year quarter, with the decrease primarily attributable to lower shipping and commission expenses, partially offset by increased corporate costs to support a larger operation. As a percent of total revenues, SG&A was 16.7% for the fourth quarter of 2023 compared to 15.8% in the prior year quarter, primarily due to lower revenues.

 

Net income was $36.5 million, or $0.77 per diluted share, in the fourth quarter of 2023 compared to net income of $55.1 million, or $1.15 per diluted share, in the prior year quarter, including a non-cash foreign exchange transaction loss of $0.2 million in the fourth quarter of 2023 and a $2.9 million gain in the fourth quarter of 2022. These non-cash gains and losses are related to the accounting re-measurement of U.S. Dollar denominated assets and liabilities against the Colombian Peso as functional currency.

 

Adjusted net income¹ was $37.7 million, or $0.80 per diluted share, in the fourth quarter of 2023 compared to adjusted net income of $52.1 million, or $1.09 per diluted share, in the prior year quarter. Adjusted net income¹, as reconciled in the table below, excludes the impact of non-cash foreign exchange transaction gains or losses and other non-core items, along with the tax impact of adjustments at statutory rates, to better reflect core financial performance.

 

Adjusted EBITDA¹, as reconciled in the table below, was $62.0 million, or 31.8% of total revenues, in the fourth quarter of 2023, compared to $87.2 million, or 41.3% of total revenues, in the prior year quarter. The change was primarily attributable to the aforementioned factors impacting gross margin as well as lower year-over-year revenues. Adjusted EBITDA¹ included a $1.4 million contribution from the Company’s joint venture with Saint-Gobain, compared to $0.8 million in the prior year quarter.

 

Full Year 2023 Results

 

Total revenues for the full year 2023 increased 16.3% to a record $833.3 million compared to $716.6 million in the prior year. Changes in foreign currency exchange rates had a negligible impact on total revenues in the year.

 

Gross profit increased 11.9% year-over-year to a full year record of $390.9 million, representing a 46.9% gross margin, compared to $349.5 million, representing a 48.8% gross margin, in the prior year. Operating income for the full year 2023 was $259.8 million compared to $226.4 million in the prior year. Net income for the full year 2023 was $183.5 million, or $3.85 per diluted share, compared to net income of $156.4 million, or $3.27 per diluted share, in the prior year. Adjusted net income¹ for the full year 2023 was $189.3 million, or $3.98 per diluted share, compared to $158.5 million, or $3.32 per diluted share, in the prior year. Adjusted EBITDA¹ for the full year 2023 improved to a record $304.1 million, or 36.5% of sales, compared to $265.7 million, or 37.1% of sales, in the prior year.

 

 

Cash Generation, Capital Allocation and Liquidity

 

Cash provided by operating activities for the full year 2023 was $138.8 million, primarily driven by higher profitability and strong working capital management. Capital expenditures of $78.0 million in the year included payments for previously purchased land for future potential capacity expansion, along with a significant portion of previously disclosed investments in facilities and operational infrastructure to enter the vinyl window market. Given the Company´s increase in installed capacity, a meaningful decrease in capital expenditures is expected for 2024.

 

During the fourth quarter of 2023, the Company returned capital to shareholders through an aggregate of $14.7 million in share repurchases and $4.3 million in cash dividends. As of February 29, 2024, the Company has approximately $26.5 million remaining under the current repurchase program.

 

The Company ended 2023 with total liquidity of approximately $300 million, including $129.5 million of cash and cash equivalents and $170.0 million of availability under its revolving credit facilities. Given the Company’s strong cash generation, net debt leverage remained near a record low level of 0.1x net debt to LTM Adjusted EBITDA¹, compared to 0.2x in the prior year.

 

Given the visibility afforded by our backlog as of year-end and the expectation to continue driving strong operating and free cash flow, the Board of Directors has approved a 22% increase in the quarterly dividend on its ordinary shares, to $0.11 per share from $0.09 per share, continuing to return incremental cash to shareholders. At the new rate, the dividend on an annualized basis will be $0.44 per share compared to the previous rate of $0.36 per share. The Company’s next quarterly dividend of $0.11 per share will be payable on April 30, 2024, to holders of record as of March 29, 2024.

 

Full Year 2024 Outlook

 

Santiago Giraldo, Chief Financial Officer of Tecnoglass, stated, “Based on our current backlog and our expectation to continue increasing our single-family residential revenues through geographic expansion and our new vinyl initiative, we are confident that 2024 will be another year of double-digit revenue growth. Given the current lack of clarity on U.S. macroeconomic factors, mainly the evolution of interest rates going forward, we plan to provide additional color on our full year 2024 revenue and adjusted EBITDA outlook at a later date as the economic picture and the cadence of growth in the single family residential business become clearer. We remain confident in our ability to outperform our end markets, with share gains expected to drive another year of solid growth and cash flow generation in 2024.”

Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Performance Measures to GAAP Performance Measures

(In thousands)

(Unaudited)

 

The Company believes that total revenues with foreign currency held neutral, which are not performance measures under generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), may provide users of the Company’s financial information with additional meaningful bases for comparing the Company’s current results and results in a prior period, as these measures reflect factors that are unique to one period relative to the comparable period. Management uses such performance measures in managing and evaluating the Company’s business. However, these non-GAAP performance measures should be viewed in addition to, and not as an alternative for, the Company’s reported results under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.

Currency impacts on total revenues for the current quarter have been derived by translating current quarter revenues at the prevailing average foreign currency rates during the prior year quarter, as applicable.

 

 

Reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted net (loss) income to net (loss) income

(In thousands, except share and per share data) / (Unaudited)

 

Adjusted EBITDA and adjusted net (loss) income are non-GAAP performance measures. Management believes Adjusted EBITDA and adjusted net (loss) income, in addition to operating profit, net (loss) income and other GAAP measures, are useful to investors to evaluate the Company’s results because they exclude certain items that are not directly related to the Company’s core operating performance. Investors should recognize that Adjusted EBITDA and adjusted net (loss) income might not be comparable to similarly-titled measures of other companies. These measures should be considered in addition to, and not as a substitute for or superior to, any measure of performance prepared in accordance with GAAP.

 

Reconciliations of the non-GAAP measures used in this press release are included in the tables attached to this press release, to the extent available without unreasonable effort. Because GAAP financial measures on a forward-looking basis are not accessible, and reconciling information is not available without unreasonable effort, we have not provided reconciliations for forward-looking non-GAAP measures. Items excluded to arrive at forward-looking non-GAAP measures may have a significant, and potentially unpredictable, impact on our future GAAP results.

 

A reconciliation of Adjusted net (loss) income and Adjusted EBITDA to the most directly comparable GAAP measure in accordance with SEC Regulation G follows, with amounts in thousands:
