Miami, FL, Nov. 07, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- 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 third quarter ended September 30, 2024.

José Manuel Daes, Chief Executive Officer of Tecnoglass, commented, “Our third quarter 2024 results once again demonstrate our ability to outperform in challenging market conditions, particularly in our single-family residential business. Our vertically integrated model continues to be a key differentiator, enabling us to control costs and swiftly adapt to market dynamics. Investments in automation and advanced manufacturing are yielding significant returns, enhancing our operational efficiency and capacity to meet growing demand for our innovative products. These factors drove strong gross profit and Adjusted EBITDA growth this quarter. Record backlog in our multi-family/commercial segment, coupled with October's record total invoicing, supports our strengthened 2024 outlook. This all-around solid performance was accentuated by another quarter of strong cash flow. Our ability to consistently outperform our market reinforces our expectation to capitalize on long-term growth opportunities in both residential and commercial markets, backed by our strong balance sheet and cash generation capabilities."

Christian Daes, Chief Operating Officer of Tecnoglass, added, “The third quarter saw another period of record performance, underscoring the strength of our business model in complex market conditions. Demand for our innovative, high-performance products remained strong across key end markets. We're encouraged by robust quoting and bidding activity for commercial projects, supporting our record backlog of $1.04 billion at quarter-end. Our vertically integrated platform ensures a high level of quality, leverages operating efficiencies, and enables quick adaptation to shifts in end market demand. Overall, we remain focused on leveraging our vertically-integrated operations to drive share gains and geographic diversification in 2024 and beyond."

Third Quarter 2024 Results

Total revenues for the third quarter of 2024 increased 13.1% to $238.3 million, the highest revenue quarter in the Company´s history, compared to $210.7 million in the prior year quarter. Single-family residential revenues increased 25.0% year-over-year to record levels, reflecting improving market trends and the invoicing of orders placed ahead of the June 30th expiration of the Florida sales tax waiver. Multi-family/commercial revenues grew 4.6% year-over-year to near record levels. Changes in foreign currency exchange rates had an adverse impact of $0.1 million on total revenues in the quarter.

Gross profit for the third quarter of 2024 was $109.2 million, representing a 45.8% gross margin, compared to gross profit of $90.5 million, representing a 43.0% gross margin, in the prior year quarter. The year-over-year change in gross margin reflected the benefits from stronger pricing, stable raw material costs, favorable product mix and steady foreign exchange rates.

Selling, general and administrative expense (“SG&A”) was $41.5 million for the third quarter of 2024 compared to $29.5 million in the prior year quarter, with the increase primarily attributable to higher transportation and commission expenses associated with the revenue growth in the quarter, higher personnel expenses given overall salary adjustments that took place at the beginning of the year, and certain non-recurring expenses related to the Company’s previously announced strategic review. Additional costs were incurred from aluminum tariffs on select products, which were largely being passed through to customers and which were subsequently eliminated by the International Trade Commission based on a determination made on October 31st. As a percent of total revenues, SG&A was 17.4% for the third quarter of 2024 compared to 14.0% in the prior year quarter, primarily due to the aforementioned factors.

Net income was $49.5 million, or $1.05 per diluted share, in the third quarter of 2024 compared to net income of $46.1 million, or $0.96 per diluted share, in the prior year quarter, including a non-cash foreign exchange transaction gain of $0.9 million in the third quarter of 2024 and a $1.1 million gain in the third quarter of 2023. These non-cash gains 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 $50.9 million, or $1.08 per diluted share, in the third quarter of 2024 compared to adjusted net income of $46.6 million, or $0.98 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 $81.4 million, or 34.2% of total revenues, in the third quarter of 2024, compared to $71.3 million, or 33.8% of total revenues, in the prior year quarter. The improvement was driven by higher revenues and improved gross margins. Adjusted EBITDA1 included a $2.1 million contribution from the Company’s joint venture with Saint-Gobain, compared to $0.4 million in the prior year quarter.

Cash Generation, Capital Allocation and Liquidity

Cash provided by operating activities for the third quarter of 2024 was $41.5 million, primarily driven by increased profitability on higher revenues and efficient working capital management. Capital expenditures of $23.7 million in the quarter included scheduled payments on previous investments and a payment for the Miami headquarters and the associated flagship showroom.

During the quarter, the Company returned capital to shareholders through the payment of $5.2 million in cash dividends. During the quarter, the Company made a $17.5 million voluntary prepayment to its syndicate term loan facility. The Company ended the quarter with approximately $26.5 million remaining under the current share repurchasing program.

The Company ended the third quarter of 2024 with total liquidity of approximately $290.0 million, including $122.1 million of cash and cash equivalents and $170.0 million of availability under its revolving credit facilities. Net debt leverage was a record low of 0.01x net debt to LTM Adjusted EBITDA1, down from 0.2x in the prior year quarter. Given continued strong cash generation, the Company expects to achieve a net cash position by year end.

Board Concludes Review of Strategic Alternatives and Affirms Commitment to Value Creation Strategy

After careful evaluation, the Board has determined that the best path forward is to continue implementing our ongoing business strategy. We believe that maximizing value for all shareholders requires adherence to the Company's proven business model, which has consistently delivered industry-leading returns and enabled above-market growth through organic market share gains. The Company remains focused on leveraging its core strengths, its vertically integrated operations, strategic geographic positioning, and innovative product portfolio which have driven its exceptional track record of growth and profitability.

The Company will continue to pursue multiple avenues for growth, including expanding its vinyl window business, strengthening its presence in key markets through a growing network of showrooms, and capitalizing on the strong demand experienced in both its residential and commercial end markets. With its recently completed facility enhancements, strong balance sheet, and record backlog providing visibility well into 2025, the Company is well-positioned to continue delivering above-market growth while maintaining industry-leading margins and generating robust cash flow.

The Company remains confident in its ability to create substantial value for shareholders through organic growth initiatives and operational excellence, supported by favorable demographic trends in key markets and a proven ability to gain market share even in challenging environments. The Board remains focused on returning capital to shareholders, backed by the announcement of a 36% increase in the Company’s quarterly dividend to $0.15 per share, along with the expansion of the Company’s share repurchase authorization to $100.0 million to execute during opportunistic times. These actions reflect the Board’s confidence in continued cash flow generation capabilities, prudent balance sheet management, and a commitment to delivering superior returns to shareholders while maintaining ample financial flexibility to execute on our growth initiatives. Management will have discretion in the repurchase of common shares, including the timing and amount to be repurchased.

Full Year 2024 Outlook

Santiago Giraldo, Chief Financial Officer of Tecnoglass, stated, “Based on our strong execution through the first nine months of 2024 and the visibility provided by our record backlog, we are updating our full year 2024 outlook. We now expect full year revenues to be in the range of $880 million to $900 million, representing growth of approximately 7% at the midpoint of the range. Additionally, we are updating our Adjusted EBITDA¹ target to a range of $270 million to $280 million. The implied Adjusted EBITDA¹ margin of 31% at the midpoint assumes a full year gross margin in the low to mid 40% range, along with continued strong cash flow generation. This outlook reflects our expected tailwinds from continued single-family residential growth through geographic expansion, the ramp up of deliveries of our vinyl windows, timely execution of our multi-family/commercial backlog, and the ongoing benefits of our vertically integrated operations. We remain confident in our ability to drive further value creation through market share gains and operational excellence 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.

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.
