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, ~~2017.~~2018. The year-end condensed balance sheet data was derived from audited financial statements 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 inherent 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~~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, comprising the design, manufacturing, distribution, marketing and installation of high-specification architectural glass and window product sold to the construction industry.

Principles of Consolidation

These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements consolidate TGI, its subsidiaries ~~TG,~~Tecnoglass S.A.S (“TG”), C.I. Energía Solar S.A.S E.S. Windows (“ES”) and ES ~~and~~ Windows LLC (“ESW LLC”), Tecnoglass LLC (“Tecno ~~LLC,~~LLC”), Tecno RE LLC (“Tecno RE”), GM&P Consulting and Glazing Contractors (“GM&P”), Componenti USA LLC (“Componenti”) and ES Metals SAS (“ES Metals”), 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.

Non-controlling interest

When the Company owns a majority ~~(but less than 100%)~~ of a subsidiary’s stock, the Company includes in its condensed consolidated Financial Statements the non-controlling interest in the subsidiary. The non-controlling interest in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and Other Comprehensive Income is equal to the non-controlling proportionate share of the subsidiary’s net income and, as included in Shareholders’ Equity on the Consolidated Balance Sheet, is equal to the non-controlling proportionate share of the subsidiary’s net assets.

Foreign Currency Translation

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are presented in U.S. Dollars, the reporting currency. Some of our foreign subsidiaries’ local currency is the Colombian Peso, which is also their functional currency as determined by the analysis of markets, 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.

Also, exchange gains and losses arising from transactions denominated in a currency other than the functional currency are included in the ~~condensed consolidated statement~~Condensed Consolidated Statement of ~~operations~~Operations as foreign exchange gains and losses.

~~Revenue Recognition~~

Our principal sources of revenue are derived from product sales of manufactured glass and aluminum products. Revenue is recognized when (i) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists in the form of a signed purchase order or contract, (ii) delivery has occurred per contracted terms, (iii) fees and prices are fixed and determinable, and (iv) collectability of the sale is reasonably assured. All revenue is recognized net of discounts, returns and allowances. Delivery to the customer is deemed to have occurred when the title is passed to the customer. Generally, title passes to the customer upon shipment, but title transfer may occur when the customer receives the product based on the terms of the agreement with the customer.

~~Effective January 1, 2018, the Company adopted Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2014-09,~~~~Revenue from Contracts with Customers,~~as amended (commonly referred to as ASC 606) using the modified retrospective transition method. The cumulative effect of applying the standard was a decrease of $187 to shareholders’ equity as of January 1, 2018. The Company’s statement of operations for the six-month period ended June 30, 2018 and the Company’s balance sheet as of June 30, 2018 are presented under ASC 606, while the Company’s statement of operations for the quarterly period ended June 30, 2017 and the Company’s balance sheet as of December 31, 2017 are presented under ASC 605,~~Revenue Recognition~~. See Note 3 for disclosure of the impact of the adoption of ASC 606 on the Company’s statement of operations and balance sheet for the quarterly period ended June 30, 2018, and the effect of changes made to the Company’s consolidated balance sheet as of January 1, 2018.

Approximately 45% of the Company’s consolidated net sales is generated from long-term contracts with customers that require 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 Company’s 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.

A substantial amount of the Company’s sales are from performance obligations satisfied over time and are primarily with general contractors to real estate developers. 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 terminate 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 fixed price contracts that include performance obligations satisfied over time 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 contract’s 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 Company’s fixed-price type 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 fixed-price 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. 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 Company’s 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 the three and six months ended June 30, 2018.

~~Remaining Performance Obligations~~

On June 30, 2018, the Company had $273 million of remaining performance obligations, which represents the transaction price of firm orders minus sales recognized from inception to date. Remaining performance obligations exclude 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 three years.

~~Income Taxes~~

The Company’s operations in Colombia are subject to the taxing jurisdiction of the Republic of Colombia. Tecnoglass LLC and Tecnoglass RE LLC are subject to the taxing jurisdiction of the United States. TGI and Tecnoglass Holding are subject to the taxing jurisdiction of the Cayman Islands. Annual tax periods prior to December 2015 are no longer subject to examination by taxing authorities in Colombia. GM&P, Componenti and ESW LLC are U.S. entities based in Florida subject to U.S. federal and state income taxes.

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 Company’s 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 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. 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~~

Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net income 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 options and other potential ordinary shares outstanding during the period. Diluted loss per share is computed similar to basic loss per share except that the denominator is increased to include the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if the potential common shares had been issued and if the additional common shares were dilutive.

~~The following table sets forth the computation of the basic and diluted earnings per share for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017:~~

Three months ended June 30, Six months ended June 30,
2018 2017 2018 2017
Numerator for basic and diluted earnings per shares

Denominator
Denominator for basic earnings per ordinary share - weighted average shares outstanding 35,935,442 35,763,650 35,869,746 35,759,895

Denominator for diluted earnings per ordinary share - weighted average shares outstanding 35,935,442 35,763,650 36,362,493 35,759,895

Basic earnings per ordinary share $ (0.11 ) $ (0.10 ) $ 0.19 $ (0.07 )
Diluted earnings per ordinary share $ (0.11 ) $ (0.10 ) $ 0.19 $ (0.07 )

The effect of dilutive securities includes 492,747 as of June 30, 2018 for shares potentially issued in relation to the dividends declared. The denominator for basic and diluted earnings per ordinary share for the six months ended June 30, 2018 and the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, exclude 321,594 and 492,747 shares, respectively, issued in relation to the dividends declares due to the net loss for the period as their inclusion would be anti-dilutive.

~~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 warrantied products.

The Company evaluated historical information regarding claims for replacements under warranties and concluded that the costs that the Company has incurred in relation to these warranties have not been material.

~~Non-Operating Income, net~~

The Company recognizes non-operating income from foreign currency transaction gains and losses, interest income on receivables, proceeds from sales of scrap materials and other activities not related to the Company’s operations. Foreign currency transaction gains and losses occur when monetary assets, liabilities, payments and receipts that are denominated in currencies other than the Company’s functional currency are recorded in the Colombian peso accounts of the Company in Colombia.

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. Shipping and handling costs for the three months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018 were $4,714 and ~~2017 were~~ $3,764, ~~and $3,057,~~ respectively. Shipping and handling costs for the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018 were $9,024 and ~~2017 were~~ $8,496 ~~and $6,189,~~ respectively.

Dividends Payable

The company accounts for its dividend declared as a liability under ASC 480 - Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity since the ~~shareholder~~shareholders have the option to elect cash or stock and reclassifies from dividend payable to additional paid-in capital when shareholders ~~elects~~elect a stock dividend instead of cash. The dividend payable is not subject to re-measurement at each balance sheet date since the dividend is a fixed monetary amount known at inception and thus no change in fair value adjustment is necessary.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In ~~August~~June 2016, ~~the~~ FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2016-13, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326). This ASU 2016-15, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments (“ASU 2016-15”). ASU 2016-15 reduces diversity in practice by providing guidance on the classification of certain cash receipts and paymentsrepresents a significant change in the ~~statement~~allowance for credit losses accounting model by requiring immediate recognition of ~~cash flows.~~management’s estimates of current expected credit losses. Under the prior model, losses were recognized only as they were incurred, which FASB has noted delayed recognition of expected losses that might not yet have met the threshold of being probable. The new model is applicable to all financial instruments that are not accounted for at fair value through net income, thereby bringing consistency in accounting treatment across different types of financial instruments and requiring consideration of a broader range of variables when forming loss estimates. ASU 2016-15 clarifies that when cash receipts and cash payments have aspects of more than one class of cash flows and cannot be separated, classification will depend on the predominant source or use. ASU 2016-152016-13 is effective ~~on a retrospective basis~~ for ~~fiscal years, and for interim periods within those~~ fiscal years beginning after December 15, ~~2017,~~2019, (with early application permitted). During 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-04 and ASU 2019-05 with ~~early adoption permitted. Adoption~~Codification Improvements to Topic 326, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses. The Company is currently evaluating the potential effect of this ASU ~~has no material impact~~ on ~~our~~its consolidated financial statements.

New Accounting Standards Implemented

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02 “Leases (Topic 842)” (“ASU 2016-02”). The FASB issued ASU 2016-02 to increase transparency and comparability among organizations by recognizing lease assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet and disclosing key information about leasing arrangements. Under ASU 2016-02, a lessee will recognize in the statement of financial position a liability to make lease payments (the lease liability) and a right-to-use asset representing its right to use the underlying asset for the lease term. ~~The recognition, measurement, and presentation of expenses and cash flows arising from a lease by a lessee have not significantly changed from current GAAP.~~ ASU 2016-02 retains a distinction between finance leases (i.e. capital leases under current GAAP) and operating leases. The classification criteria for distinguishing between finance leases and operating leases will be substantially similar to the classification criteria for distinguishing between capital leases and operating leases under current GAAP. The amendments of this ASU are effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018, ~~with early~~which for the Company is the fiscal year beginning January 1, 2019.

The Company did not adjust the comparative periods presented as the FASB provided entities the option to instead apply the provisions of the new leases guidance using the modified retrospective application approach.The new standard provided a number of optional practical expedients in transition. We elected the ‘package of practical expedients’, which allowed the company to not reassess our prior conclusions about lease identification, lease classification and direct costs.The new standard also provides practical expedients for an entity’s ongoing accounting. We elected the short-term lease recognition exemption for all leases that qualified, primarily for certain equipment leases that are month-to-month leases. This means, for those leases, we did not recognize right-of-use assets or lease liabilities. We also elected the practical expedient to not separate lease and non-lease components for all classes of underlying assets.

We have identified and analyzed our lease portfolio and evaluated the new reporting and disclosure requirements of the new guidance, and our lease-related processes and internal controls. The adoption ~~permitted. An entity will be required~~of this standard had no material impact to the Company’s financial statements, as, under prior guidance, we had recognized capital leases which correspond to the right-of-use asset and lease liability described under the new guidance. This standard does not have a significant impact on our liquidity or on our debt covenant compliance under our current agreements.

As of January 1, 2019, the Company had $378 finance lease right-of-use assets related to computing equipment and a lease liability for $380 on its Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet. As of June 30, 2019, the Company had $682 finance lease right-of-use assets related to computing equipment and a lease liability for $650 on its Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet. The lease agreements include terms to extend the lease, however the Company does not intend to extend its current leases. The weighted average remaining lease term approximates 2.8 years. The right-of-use assets are depreciated and interest expense from the lease liability are recorded on our Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations.

Additionally, as of June 30, 2019 the Company had a commitment for $102 under operating leases related to short term apartment leases, installation equipment and computing equipment which expire during the current year that have not been capitalized due to their short-term nature. Rental expense from these leases is recognized on our Condensed Consolidated Income Statement as incurred. Finance lease costs, including amortization of the right-of-use assets and interest expense, short term lease cost, and related cashflows have not been material as of June 30, 2019.

Leases Accounting Policy

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 Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet. Leases considered short-term are not capitalized, given our election not to recognize right-of-use assets and ~~measure~~lease liabilities arising from short-term leases, atbut instead considered operating leases and the ~~beginning~~resulting rental expense is recognized on our Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations as incurred.

Finance lease right-of-use assets and lease liabilities are recognized based on the present value of the ~~earliest period presented using a modified retrospective approach. The Company~~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 ~~currently evaluating the potential effect of this ASU on its consolidated financial statements.~~reasonably certain that we will exercise that option.

Note 3. ~~New Accounting Standards Implemented~~– Long-term Investments

~~In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09,~~~~Revenue from Contracts with Customers~~, as amended (commonly referred to as ASC 606), which replaces numerous requirements in U.S. GAAP, including industry-specific requirements, and provides companies with a single revenue recognition model for recognizing revenue from contracts with customers and significantly expanded the disclosure requirements for revenue arrangements. The new standard, as amended, was effective for the Company for interim and annual reporting periods beginning on January 1, 2018.Saint-Gobain Joint Venture

~~As discussed~~On January 11, 2019, we entered into a joint venture agreement with Saint-Gobain, a world leader in ~~Note 2,~~the production of float glass, a key component of our manufacturing process, whereby we acquired a 25.8% minority ownership interest in Vidrio Andino Holdings S.A.S (“Vidrio Andino”), a Colombia-based subsidiary of Compagnie de Saint-Gobain S.A. (“Saint-Gobain”). The purchase price for our interest in this entity was $45 million, of which $34.1 was paid in cash, and $10.9 million is to be paid with a piece of land near our existing facility in Barranquilla. The land will be contributed on our behalf by our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Operating Officer, José M. Daes and Christian T. Daes in exchange for cash or shares of the Company ~~adopted ASC 606~~and subject to an external valuation to support an arm´s length transaction. The land will serve the purpose of developing a second float glass plant nearby our existing manufacturing facilities which we expect to carry significant efficiencies for us once it becomes operative. Vidrio Andino’s float glass plant located in the outskirts of Bogota, Colombia, has been one of our main suppliers of raw glass. We believe this transaction will solidify 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.

On May 3, 2019, we consummated the joint venture agreement acquiring a 25.8% minority ownership interest in Vidrio Andino with a cash payment of $34.1 million, and the land still to be contributed by January 2020, as per the agreement. As of that date the Company recorded the investment within Long-term assets on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet for $45.0 million and a liability for $10.9 million within current liabilities on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance to be settled with the contribution of the aforementioned piece of land. Since the date of the acquisition, we have recognized the proportional share of Vidrio Andino’s net income using the ~~modified retrospective transition method. Results for reporting periods beginning after December 31, 2017 are presented under ASC 606, while prior period comparative information has not been restated~~equity method on the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations and ~~continues to be reported in accordance with ASC 605,~~~~Revenue Recognition,~~ ~~the accounting standard in effect for periods ending prior to January 1, 2018.

Previously, under ASC 605, the Company recognized sales over time by using the percentage of completion method on all of its fixed-type contracts and measured the extent of progress toward completion using the cost-to-cost method but adjusted inventory for uninstalled materials only for those projects were this method was not appropriately reflecting the progress on the contracts. Accordingly, the adoption of ASC 606 impacted all contracts that had uninstalled materials were the risk of ownership has not been passed to the customer regardless of the extent of progress toward completion.a new subsidiary

~~Based~~In April 2019, ESMetals, a Colombian entity in which the Company has 70% equity interest began operations. ESMetals serves as a metalwork contractor to supply the Company with steel accessories used in the assembly of certain architectural systems as part of our vertical integration strategy. When the company owns a majority (but less than 100%) of a subsidiary’s stock, the Company includes in its Consolidated Financial Statements the non-controlling interest in the subsidiary. The non-controlling interest in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and Other Comprehensive Income is equal to the non-controlling interests’ proportionate share of the subsidiary’s net income and, as included in Shareholders’ Equity on the ~~analysis performed~~Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet, is equal to the non-controlling interests’ proportionate share of the ~~uninstalled materials at January 1, 2018,~~subsidiary’s net assets.

The Company made certain presentation changes to its consolidated balance sheet on January 1, 2018 to comply with ASC 606. The components of contracts in process as reported under ASC 605, which included unbilled contract receivables and inventoried contract costs, have been reclassified as contract assets and inventories, respectively, after certain adjustments described below under ASC 606. The remainder of inventoried contract costs, primarily related to inventories not controlled by the Company’s customers, were reclassified to inventories. The Company expenses costs to obtain a contract and costs to fulfill a contract as incurred. Other revenues not related to fixed-type contracts did not result in any changes under ASC 606 and the revenues are still been recognized when the risk of ownership is transfered to the customer based on the sales terms.Note 4. - Inventories, net

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.~~current and 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 Company’s consolidated balance sheets.

~~Note 4. GM&P Acquisition~~Remaining Performance Obligations

~~On March 1, 2017,~~As of June 30, 2019, the Company ~~entered into~~had $285.9 million of remaining performance obligations, which represents the transaction price of firm orders minus sales recognized from inception to date. Remaining performance obligations exclude unexercised contract options, verbal commitments and ~~consummated a purchase agreement, as amended, with Giovanni Monti, the owner of~~potential orders under basic ordering agreements. The Company expects to recognize 100% of ~~the outstanding shares of Giovanni Monti and Partners Consulting and Glazing Contractors (“GM&P”). GM&P is a consulting and glazing contracting company located in Miami, Florida with over 15~~sales relating to existing performance obligations within three years, of experience in the design and installation of various building enclosure systems such as curtain window walls and a long-standing commercial relationship with the Company, working alongside it in the past in different projects within the U.S, by providing engineering and installation services to those projects.

~~The Company acquired all of the shares of GM&P for a purchase price of $35~~which $145.6 million ~~of which the Company paid $6 million of the purchase price in cash within 60 days following the closing date with the remaining $29 million of the purchase price~~are expected to be paid by May 15, 2018. The Company paid an additional $6 million in cash on April 2018 and entered into a Debt Settlement Agreement to pay the remaining consideration price through a combination of stock, by issuing 1,238,095 ordinary shares valued at $10.50 per share and a $10 million Subordinated Seller´s Note. The Seller´s Note was subsequently reduced to $8.5 million to atone the Buyer for adjustments and process inefficiencies caused by changes in GM&P´s supply chain and other business optimization costs seenrecognized during the ~~second quarter of 2018. Following our process optimization and changes in the supply chain process, we believe the associated cost impacts to be non-recurring.~~

Based on the implicit price at which the shares were issued, which at the time of the issuance in June 2018 was higher than the market price of those shares, the Company recorded a gain of $2,106. Additionally, including the reduction of the nominal amount of the Seller´s Note by $1,500, the Company recorded a gain on extinguishment of debt of $3,606. The gain on extinguishment of debt was recorded into Additional Paid-In Capital per guidance of ASC 470-50-40 because it is considered a related party transaction as the former owner of GM&P holds a management position within the Company.

With the acquisition of GM&P, the Company also acquired a 60% equity interest in Componenti, a subsidiary of GM&P that provides architectural specialties in the US, specializing in design-build systems for individual projects and with experience in value engineering to create products that comply with the architects’ original design intent, while maintaining focus on affordable construction methods and materials.

The following table summarizes the consideration transferred to acquire GM&P and the amounts of identified assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the acquisition date, as well as the fair value of the non-controlling interest in Componenti as of the acquisition date. Under ASC 805, a company can apply measurement period adjustmentsyear ending December 31, 2019, $115.5 million 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 consideration transferred was based on management’s judgment after evaluation of several factors, including a preliminary valuation assessment. The analysis has been completedyear ending December 31, 2020 and results in measurement period adjustments are included in the final purchase price allocation as shown on the table below. The goodwill from the GM&P acquisition represents the expected synergies from combining operations with Tecnoglass Inc., and is not deductible for tax purposes$24.9 million thereafter.

~~The following table summarizes the purchase price allocation of the total consideration transferred:~~

Consideration Transferred:
Notes payable (Cash or Stock) $ 35,000

Non-current liabilities assumed (3,634 ) (3,231 ) (6,865 )
Total identifiable net assets 17,297 (3,387 ) 13,910
Goodwill (including Workforce) $ 18,844 3,387 $ 22,231

The adjustment made to the preliminary purchase price allocation to Non-current liabilities assumed is related to an adjustment in deferred tax liability and billings in excess of cost incurred. The excess of the consideration transferred over the estimated fair values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed was recorded as goodwill. The identifiable intangible asset subject to amortization was the tradename, customer relationships, non-compete agreement, and backlog, which have a remaining useful life of two to five years. See Note 6 – Goodwill and Intangible Assets for additional information.

The following unaudited pro forma financial information assumes the acquisition had occurred as of January 1, 2017 which does not include GM&P actual results for the entire period. Pro forma results have been prepared by adjusting our historical results to include the results of GM&P adjusted for the amortization expense related to the intangible assets arising from the acquisition. The unaudited pro forma results below do not necessarily reflect the results of operations that would have resulted had the acquisition been completed at the beginning of the earliest periods presented, nor does it indicate the results of operations in future periods. The unaudited pro forma results do not include the impact of synergies, nor any potential impacts on current or future market conditions which could alter the following unaudited pro forma results.

~~Non-controlling interest~~

The Company has 60% equity interest in Componenti. The 40% non-controlling interest in Componenti is included in the opening balance sheet as of the acquisition date and its fair value amounted to $1,141. When the company owns a majority (but less than 100%) of a subsidiary’s stock, the Company includes in its Consolidated Financial Statements the non-controlling interest in the subsidiary. The non-controlling interest in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and Other Comprehensive Income is equal to the non-controlling interests’ proportionate share of the subsidiary’s net income and, as included in Shareholders’ Equity on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet, is equal to the non-controlling interests’ proportionate share of the subsidiary’s net assets. In determining the fair value we used the income approach and the market approach which was performed by third party valuation specialists under management.

Long-term debt	$	250,234		$	220,709

As of June 30, ~~2018,~~2019, and December 31, ~~2017,~~2018, the Company had ~~$231,197~~$261,730 and ~~$224,041~~$242,106 of debt denominated in US Dollars with the remaining amounts denominated in Colombian Pesos.

On January 23, 2017, the Company issued a U.S. dollar denominated, $210 million offering of 5-year senior unsecured notes at a coupon rate of 8.2% in the international debt capital markets under Rule 144A of the Securities Act to Qualified Institutional Buyers. The Company used approximately $179 million of the proceeds to repay outstanding indebtedness, including Capital leases, and as a result achieved a lower cost of funding and strengthened its capital structure given the non-amortizing structure of the bond. Of these repayments, $59,444 were used to refinance short term debt into long term debt. The senior note does not have negative covenants with an acceleration clause, however requires the Company to meet certain performance indicators in order to take on incremental debt.

The Company had ~~$4,784~~$5,070 and ~~$4,758~~$5,037 of property, plant and equipment pledged as collateral for various lines of credit as of June 30, ~~2018~~2019 and December 31, ~~2017,~~2018, respectively.

On May 2, 2019, the Company closed a $30 million five-year term debt facility with Banco de Crédito del Perú and Banco Sabadell which bears interest at Libor +2.95%. Proceeds from this long-term debt facility were used towards refinancing short-term debt and partially supporting expected capital expenditure needs for capacity expansion and the automatization of some of our processes. This facility also contains a covenant requiring that the company maintain certain leverage and fixed charge coverage ratios with which the Company is in compliance as of June 30, 2019.

As of June 30, ~~2018,~~2019, the Company was obligated under various ~~capital~~ leases under which the aggregate present value of the minimum lease payments amounted to ~~$199.~~$650. Differences between ~~capital~~ lease obligations and the value of property, plant and equipment under capital lease arises from differences between the maturities of capital lease obligations and the useful lives of the underlying assets.

Maturities of ~~long term~~long-term debt and other current borrowings are as follows as of June 30, ~~2018:~~2019:

2019	$	11,498
2020		2,410	$	12,411
2021		2,361		5,508
2022		212,359		219,988

2024				12,868
Thereafter		7,260		4,901
Total	$	238,248	$	267,077

The Company’s loans have maturities ranging from a few weeks to 1110 years. Our credit facilities bear interest at a weighted average of rate ~~7.7%~~7.5%.

~~Note 8. Income Taxes~~

The Company files income tax returns for TG and ES in the Republic of Colombia. On December 28, 2016, the Colombian congress enacted a structural tax reform that took effect on January 1, 2017 which reduces corporate income tax from 42% to 40% for fiscal year 2017, 37% in 2018 and 33% in 2019 and thereafter.

GM&P, Componenti and ESW LLC are U.S. entities based in Florida subject to U.S. federal and state income taxes. The estimated combined state and federal income tax rate is estimated at a rate of 25% based on the recently enacted U.S. Tax Reform. Tecnoglass Inc. as well as all the other subsidiaries in the Cayman Islands and Panama do not currently have any tax obligations.

~~The components of income tax expense (benefit) are as follows:~~

Three months ended June 30, Six months ended June 30,
2018 2017 2018 2017
Current income tax
United States $ 1,129 $ 1,759 $ 722 $ 2,211
Colombia (317 ) (630 ) (2,522 ) 1,650
(812 ) 1,129 (1,800 ) 3,861
Deferred income Tax
United States (992 ) (377 ) (1,161 ) 3
Colombia 1,647 (4,804 ) (965 ) (6,874 )
655 (5,181 ) (2,126 ) (6,871 )
Total income tax benefit (provision) $ 1,467 $ 4,052 $ (3,926 ) $ 3,010

Effective tax rate 27 % 54 % 37 % 55 %

The Company’s effective tax rate of 27% and 37% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 differ from the average statutory rate of 34% primarily because of non-deductible expenses and non-taxable income recorded in tax-exempt subsidiaries. The Company’s effective tax rate of 54% and 55% for the three and six-month period ended June 30, 2017, respectively, reflects the adoption of the Colombian tax reform described above, which became effective January 1, 2017.

As of June 30, 2018, the Company had settled an uncertain tax position concluding amounting to $2,073 related to $8,351 gross unrecognized tax benefit as of March 31, 2018 associated with a conversion of GM&P’s cash basis accounting for tax purposes to accrual basis for Fiscal years 2016 and 2015 after culminating an audit from the Internal Revenue Service. Before 2015, GM&P was using the cash method of accounting and due to IRS regulations, it needed to convert to accrual method and pay the IRS taxes over the gross unrecognized tax benefit associated with the conversion. The unrecognized tax benefits may increase or change during the next year for items that arise in the ordinary course of business and may be subject to inspection by the Colombian tax authorities for a period of up to two years until the statute of limitations period elapses and US tax authorities for a period of up to six years until the statute of limitations period elapses.

Note 9.8. 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.

As of ~~December 31, 2017,~~June 30, 2019, financial instruments carried at amortized cost that do not approximate fair value consist of long-term debt. See Note 7 - Debt. The fair value of ~~long term~~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:

	June 30, 2018		December 31, 2017		June 30, 2019		December 31, 2018
Fair Value		236,952		240,057		266,223		234,163
Carrying Value		220,392		220,998		250,234		220,709

Note 9. Income Taxes

The Company files income tax returns for TG, ES and ES Metals in the Republic of Colombia.

GM&P, Componenti and ESW LLC are U.S. entities based in Florida subject to U.S. federal and state income taxes. The estimated combined state and federal income tax rate is estimated at a rate of 26.5% based on the recently enacted U.S. Tax Reform. Tecnoglass Inc. as well as all the other subsidiaries in the Cayman Islands do not currently have any tax obligations.

Note 11. Shareholders’ Equity

Dividends ~~Payable~~

The Company originally authorized the payment of four regular quarterly dividends to holders of ordinary shares at a quarterly rate of $0.125 per share, or $0.50 per share on an annual basis, with the first quarterly dividend being paid on November 1, 2016. The dividends ~~are~~were payable in cash or ordinary shares, at the option of the holders of ordinary shares. On May 11, 2017, the Company announced that commencing with the declared quarterly dividend for the third quarter of 2017 through any future dividends to be declared and paid through the second quarter of 2018, a 12% increase to $0.14 per share, or $0.56 per share on an annual basis would apply. The Company has continued paying quarterly dividends at this rate through the second quarter of 2019.

As a result, the Company has declared dividends for ~~$10,029~~$12,389 as of June 30, ~~2018~~2019 and recorded a dividend payable amounting to ~~$734~~$1,379 as of June 30, ~~2018.~~2019. The Company issued ~~956,102~~1,214,023 shares for the share dividends resulting in ~~$8,524~~$9,578 being credited to Capital and paid ~~$1,359~~$2,170 in cash during the six months ended June 30, ~~2018.~~

2019.

The Company analyzed the accounting guidance under ASC 505 and determined that this guidance is not applicable since the dividend are shares of the same class in which each shareholder is given an election to receive cash or shares. As such, the Company analyzed the dividend under ASC 480 — Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity and concluded that the dividend should be accounted for as a liability since the dividend is a fixed monetary amount known at inception. A reclassification from dividend payable to additional paid-in capital was done for the ~~stocks~~stock dividend elections.

Energy Holding Corp., the majority shareholder of the Company, has irrevocably elected to receive any quarterly dividends declared through the second quarter of 2018 in ordinary shares, as opposed to cash.

Dividend declarations and the establishment of future record and payment dates are subject to the Board of Directors’ continuing determination that the dividend policy is in the best interests of the Company and its shareholders. The dividend policy may be changed or cancelled at the discretion of the Board of Directors at any time.

Follow-on Equity Offering

On March 25, 2019, the Company closed an underwritten follow-on public offering of 5,000,000 ordinary shares at a price to the public of $7.00 per share. As a result of this offering, the Company received a net amount of $33,050 after deducting underwriting and other related fees, which were credited to share capital and additional paid in capital.

Additionally, the Company granted the underwriters a 30-day option to purchase up to an additional 750,000 ordinary shares at the public offering price, less the underwriting discount, which option was exercised on April 3, 2019 with respect to 551,423 ordinary shares.

Proceeds from the offering were subsequently used to complete the joint venture transaction with Saint-Gobain discussed in Note 3. Vidrio Andino Acquisition.

Earnings per Share

The following table sets forth the computation of the basic and diluted earnings per share for the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018:

	Three months ended June 30,					Six months ended June 30,
	2019		2018			2019		2018
Numerator for basic and diluted earnings per shares
Net Income (loss)	$	7,660	$	(3,870	)	$	14,991	$	6,749

Denominator
Denominator for basic earnings per ordinary share - weighted average shares outstanding		44,840,263		38,200,792			42,254,672		38,135,096
Effect of dilutive securities and stock dividend		763,676		-			763,676		763,676
Denominator for diluted earnings per ordinary share - weighted average shares outstanding		45,603,939		38,200,792			43,018,348		38,898,772
Basic earnings (loss) per ordinary share	$	0.17	$	(0.10	)	$	0.35	$	0.18
Diluted earnings (loss) per ordinary share	$	0.17	$	(0.10	)	$	0.35	$	0.17

The effect of dilutive securities includes 763,676 shares for shares potentially issued in relation to the dividends declared. For the quarter ended June 30, 2018, the effect of dilutive securities is excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share because including them would be anti-dilutive given the net loss during the period.

Note 12. Commitments and Contingencies

Commitments

As of June 30, ~~2018,~~2019, the Company ~~has~~had an outstanding obligation to purchase an aggregate of at least ~~$39,140~~$25,141 of certain raw materials from a specific supplier before May 2026.

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 ~~out~~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.

Overview

~~The Company~~We are a vertically-integrated manufacturer, supplier and installer of architectural glass, windows and associated aluminum products for the global commercial and residential construction markets. With a focus on innovation, combined with providing highly specified products with the highest quality standards at competitive prices, we have developed a leadership position in each of our core markets. In the United States, which is our largest market, we were ranked as the second largest glass and metal fabricator in 2018 by Glass Magazine. In addition, we believe we are the leading glass transformation company in Colombia. Based on our analysis of third-party industry sources we had an estimated market share of over 45% of the Colombian market in 2017. 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 ~~leading manufacturer~~value-added partner based on our product development capabilities, our high-quality products and our unwavering commitment to exceptional service.

We have more than 30 years of ~~hi-spec~~experience in architectural glass and aluminum profile structure assembly, we transform a variety of glass products, including tempered safety, double thermo-acoustic and laminated glass. Our finished glass products are installed in a wide variety of buildings across a number of different applications, including floating facades, curtain walls, windows, ~~for~~doors, handrails, interior and bathroom spatial dividers. We also produce aluminum products such as profiles, rods, bars, plates and other hardware used in the ~~western hemisphere residential and commercial construction industries, operating through our direct and indirect subsidiaries. Headquartered~~manufacturing of windows.

Our products are manufactured in ~~Barranquilla, Colombia, we operate out of~~ a 2.7 million square foot, ~~vertically-integrated,~~ state-of-the-art manufacturing complex in Barranquilla, Colombia that provides easy access to ~~the Americas,~~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 El Dorado Airport (Bogota), 50 United Nations Plaza (New York), Trump Plaza (Panama), Icon Bay (Miami), and Salesforce Tower (San Francisco). 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.

~~The Company’ glass~~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, ~~include tempered glass, laminated glass, thermo-acoustic glass, curved glass, silk-screened glass,~~together with consistent and ~~digital print glass~~reliable service. We have historically generated high margin organic growth based on our position as well as mill finished, anodized, painted aluminum 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. The Company produces fixed body, sliding windows, projecting windows, guillotine windows, sliding doors and swinging doors, as well as facade products which include: floating facades, automatic doors, bathroom dividers and commercial display windows.a value-added solutions provider for our customers.

~~In recent years, we~~We have ~~expanded our US sales outside of~~a strong presence in the Florida market, ~~entering~~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 high-tech markets for curtain walls, obtaining a niche market access since this product is in high demand and marks a new trend in architecture. This product is a very sophisticated product and therefore garners high margins for us. These products involve high performance materials that are produced by Alutions and TG with stateother highly populated areas of the ~~art technology.~~

~~The U.S. market represents approximately 75%~~United States. As part of our ~~overall sales and is expected~~strategy to ~~continue being~~become a fully vertically integrated company, we have supplemented our ~~most important market going forward. The U.S. construction market has been experiencing a~~organic growth ~~cycle as evidenced by~~with some recent acquisitions that have allowed us added control over our supply chain. In March 2017, we completed the ~~ABI (“Architectural Billing Index”) as~~acquisition of May 2018 and is indicating business conditions remain strong throughout the country, especially in the South region, where Tecnoglass mainly operates (Florida and Texas). Our strategy going forward will be to continue to focus on the U.S. as our main geographical target given its significant size and business activity. Within the U.S., Tecnoglass is seeking to continue diversifying its presence across a broader footprint in order to mitigate its concentration risk, while searching for new partnerships and commercial relationships in large metropolitan areas other than those in Florida (where it has historically had a strong market position). Our relationship with distributors, installers and general contractors continue to be key in our market penetration strategy and in our sales efficiency in order to target a broad variety of end clients. Construction activity in both the commercial and the residential markets within the U.S. has a direct impact in our ability to grow sales and profit margins. Although our efficient cost structure enables us to better withstand fluctuations and cycles in construction activity, our overall results could be significantly correlated with such cycles.

~~On March 1, 2017, the Company entered into and consummated a purchase agreement with Giovanni Monti, the owner of 100% of the outstanding shares of GM&P.~~ GM&P, is a consulting and glazing ~~contracting company located~~installation business that was previously our largest installation customer. 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 ~~Miami, Florida with over 15 years~~Colombia. These acquisitions allowed for further vertical integration of ~~experience~~our business and will act as a platform for our future expansion in the ~~design and installation~~United States. Furthermore, 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 ~~various building enclosure systems such as curtain window walls and a long-standing commercial relationship with~~Saint-Gobain, solidifying our vertical integration strategy by acquiring an interest in the ~~Company, working alongside it in different projects within the U.S, by providing engineering and installation services to those projects.~~first stage of our production chain, while securing ample glass supply for our expected production needs.

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 windows 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.

During the three months ended June 30, ~~2018~~2019 and ~~2017,~~2018, the Company recorded net non-operating ~~gain~~income of ~~$0.7~~$0.4 million and ~~$0.9~~$0.7 million, respectively. Non-operating income is comprised primarily of income from rental properties and gains on sale of scrap materials.

Foreign currency transaction gains and losses

During the quarter ended June 30, ~~2018,~~2019, the Company recorded a ~~cashless~~non-cash loss of $1.2 million associated with foreign currency transactions. Most of this impact is associated with the remeasurement of a net liability position of $152.0 million U.S. dollar denominated monetary assets and liabilities held by the Company’s subsidiaries with the Colombian peso as their functional currency during a period in which the Colombian peso depreciated by 1%. Comparatively, the Company recorded a net loss of $8.3 million ~~associated with~~during the ~~devaluation of~~three months ended June 30, 2018 while the Colombian peso ofdepreciated 5.4%~~.

Our increase in sales in overall terms and into the U.S market were in part derived from the acquisition of GM&P which contributed its results from March 1, 2017, date of the acquisition versus a full six-month period in 2018. U.S. revenues contributed ~~75%~~86.6% and ~~73%~~75.4% of total sales during the first half of 2019 and 2018, ~~and 2017, respectively, as the Company maintains its focus on expanding U.S. operations~~respectively.

The increase was related, in part, to the six-month period ended June 30, 2017. As a percentage of total revenues, operating expenses were 19.2% compared to 22.2% in the prior year period. The nominal amount increase is mainly attributable to increases in shipping expense, from $6.2$1.0 million ~~to $8.5 million due~~higher sales commissions related to a higher overall amount of sales during the ~~period~~quarter, especially related to sales of our Elite and Prestige product lines aimed towards residential U.S. markets, a ~~larger amount~~$0.9 million increase in provision of ~~exports into the United States, offset by a reduction in~~trade accounts receivable ~~provision,~~expense, which ~~decreased from $2.6 in~~amounted to $0.5 million during the ~~six months ended June 30, 2017, to~~first half of 2019, compared with a net recovery of previously provisioned amounts for $0.4 million induring 2018.

As such, the payoff of the January 2016 credit facility was determined to be an extinguishment of the existing debt. As a result, we recorded a loss on the extinguishment of debt in the amount of $3.2 million during 2017 in the line item “Loss on Extinguishment of Debt” in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income. The loss represented the write off of deferred financing fees related to the extinguished debt facilities and penalties fees related to the early payoff of several loans and capital leases.2019.

Foreign currency transaction gains and losses

During the ~~six-month~~quarter ended June 30, 2019, the Company recorded a non-cash gain of $2.1 million associated to foreign currency transactions. Most of this impact is associated to the remeasurement of a net liability position of $152.0 million U.S. dollar denominated monetary assets and liabilities held by the Company’s subsidiaries with the Colombian peso as their functional currency during a period in which the Colombian peso appreciated 1%. Comparatively, the Company recorded a net gain of $1.7 million during the six months ended June 30, 2018 ~~the Company recorded a cashless gain of $1.7 million associated with a 1.8% revaluation of the Colombian peso.

~~LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES~~Liquidity

As of June 30, ~~2018,~~2019, and December 31, ~~2017, the Company~~2018, we had cash and cash equivalents of approximately ~~$29.9~~$47.7 million and ~~$40.9~~$33.0 million, respectively. During the six months ended June 30, 2019, the main source of cash was derived from its operations, an underwritten follow-on public offering of 5,551,423 ordinary shares, including the underwriters’ over-allotment option, for net proceeds of $36.5 million, and proceeds from a $30 million long-term syndicate loan facility further described below under “Cash Flow from Operations, Investing and Financing Activities”. While operating cashflow supported strong growth during the period, proceeds from the equity issuance were used to finance our joint venture with Saint-Gobain. The ~~primary difference between both periods is associated~~new syndicate facility was mainly used to reprofile debt into a longer tenor and a lower interest rate.

As of June 30, 2019, the Company had $15.8 million of borrowings available under several facilities with relationship banks, as most of the outstanding balances under such lines were repaid with the ~~use~~long-term syndicate loan facility issued in April of this year.

Capital Resources

On January 11, 2019, we entered into a joint venture agreement with 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 Holdings S.A.S, a Colombia-based subsidiary of Saint-Gobain. The purchase price for our interest in this entity was $45 million, $34.1 million were paid in cash, and a $10.9 million lot of land near our facility in Barranquilla, which will be contributed on our behalf by our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Operating Officer, José M. Daes and Christian T. Daes with a third-party valuation to be conducted. Vidrio Andino’s float glass plant located in the outskirts of Bogota, Colombia, had been one of our main suppliers of raw glass. We believe this transaction solidifies 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. The acquisition was consummated on May 3, 2019, and under the joint venture agreement, Saint Gobain will retain a majority ownership position and will have control over the operations of Vidrio Andino Holdings SAS and as such, the transaction is being accounted for under the equity method.

The joint venture agreement also includes plans to build a new plant in Galapa, Colombia that will be located approximately 20 miles from our main manufacturing facility, 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 the Company, operating cashflows from the Bogota plant, debt incurred at the joint venture level that will not consolidate into the Company and an additional contribution by us of approximately $12.5 million to be paid between 2020 and 2021.

Additionally, the Company is carrying out enhancements at its glass and aluminum facilities to increase production capacity and automate operations. The Company anticipates that these high return investments will speed up production processes in response to strong customer demand, especially for aluminum products. The Company expects to improve efficiency in its glass production by automating certain processes to increase capacity on the transformed glass tempering lines by approximately 2.5 times, while reducing material waste and overall lead times. In its aluminum operations, the Company intends to benefit from a 25% increase in capacity and favorable operating leverage with the addition of an aluminum furnace and a new extrusion line, along with working capital ~~required~~improvements through the automation of warehousing systems. The Company completed this aluminum capacity expansion in the middle of July of 2019 and expects the full implementation of its automation initiatives by the end of 2019, with a total anticipated investment of approximately $20 million with this funding being executed since the end of 2018 and expected to ~~support inventory purchases in anticipation~~be completed by the first quarter of ~~a higher amount of sales and~~2020 (as some payments are expected post completion based on certain performance conditions). The Company expects to continue funding these capital investments mainly with the interest payment of our Senior notes during the quarter. The Company’s primary sources of liquidity to support its working capital needs and short-term capital expenditures will be its readily available cash ~~balance, cash generated from financing activities and moderating cash flow used in operating activities.~~on hand.

While growing sales 25.5% year-over-year during the first half of 2019, the Company was able to generate cashflow from operating activities through careful management of inventories, receivables and better supplier terms. The main source of operating cashflow during the first half of 2019 was trade accounts payable, generating $8.6 million, in contrast with a use of $2.3 million in 2018, mostly related to more purchases of raw materials to supply our growing operation. Despite this, inventory levels have remained relatively stable and even generated moderate $2.1 million as a result of our efforts to streamline our vertically integrated operation and speed up inventory turnover.

Main use of cash inwithin operating activities in the six-month period ended June 30, 2018 provides for the working capital required during the period in order to support incremental inventory purchasing and a higher amount of receivables associated with the Company´s ongoing revenue growth.

~~Trade~~was trade accounts receivable, which used ~~$4.0~~$16.8 million during the six-month period ended June 30, ~~2018, which in large part is related to the revenue growth experienced between the last twelve-month comparable period.

Under this new standard, retainage receivables are now presented within “Contract Assets and Liabilities”, which also contains unbilled receivables and advances from customers. Comparably, trade accounts receivable (including retainage receivables) generated $5.8 million during the first six months of 2017 which was a period of much more tempered growth.

Inventory purchases used $7.3 million as the Company’s inventories grew in relation to the short term expected growth; nevertheless improving inventory turnover by 5 days at quarter end relative to fiscal year end. While it is expected that the Company will have working capital needs as it undergoes continued growth, management continues to seek ways of optimizing the collection of its receivables and its inventory procurement.

Taxes payable are main use of operating cash flow during both periods ended June 30, 2018 and 2017 as the Company’s operating subsidiaries have filed and paid their tax obligations for the preceding fiscal year, using $10.6 million and $15.1 million during the six months periods ended June 30, 2018 and 2017 respectively.

During the six months ended June 30, 2018, cash used in investing activities decreased to $11.2 million compared with $12.5 million during the same period of 2017. Capital expenditures remain moderate at $4.9 million and $4.3$3.8 million during the six months ended June 30, ~~2018 and 2017, respectively, as we expect that current installed capacity will be enough to service our backlog and expected sales through the year~~ 2018. During both periods, the Company paid $6.0 million and $7.9 million, respectively, for the acquisition of businesses, primarily GM&P, of which $6.0 million where paid in cash during each of the two periods and the remainder of the purchase price settled with the issuance of shares and a note payable.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

~~We are exposed to ongoing market risk related to changes in interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates.~~None

A rise in interest rates could negatively affect the cost of financing for a portion of our debt with variable interest rates. If interest rates were to increase by 200 basis points, net earnings would decrease by approximately $0.5 million over a six-month period. Conversely, if interest rates were to decrease by 200 basis points, net earnings would increase by approximately $0.5 million over a six-month period. We currently do not use derivative financial instruments to manage interest rate risk.

We are also subject to market risk due to changes in the value of foreign currencies in relation to our reporting currency, the U.S. dollar. Two of our subsidiaries with significant operations are based in Colombia, and primarily transact business in local currency. A significant portion of the revenues and costs of these subsidiaries are generally denominated in Colombian pesos, thereby mitigating some of the risk associated with changes in foreign exchange rates. As of the six months ended June 30, 2018, a 1% devaluation of the Colombian Peso would result in our revenues decreasing by $0.4 million and our expenses decreasing by approximately $0.6 million, resulting in a $0.2 million increase to net earnings during the six-month period. A strengthening of the Colombian Peso by 1% would increase our revenues by $0.4 million and expenses by $0.6 million resulting in $0.2 lower earnings during the six-month period.

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 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. However, the Colombian subsidiaries’ US Dollar denominated monetary liabilities exceed their monetary assets by $152.4 million, such that a 1% devaluation of the Colombian peso will result in a loss of $1.5 million recorded in the Company’s Consolidated Statement of Operations. Conversely, an appreciation of the peso would result in a gain to be recorded as a Foreign exchange gain within the consolidated statement of operations (based on the same relation of monetary assets and liabilities).

Additionally, the results of the foreign subsidiaries have to be translated into US Dollar, our reporting currency, in the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

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~~principal executive officer and ~~Principal Financial Officer,~~principal financial officer, of Tecnoglass, Inc.’s´s design and operating effectiveness of the internal controls over financial reporting as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report. Based on this evaluation, our ~~Principal Executive Officer~~principal executive officer and ~~Principal Financial Officer have~~principal financial officer concluded that, ~~because~~due to the material weakness described on our Annual Report on form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018, our internal controls over financial reporting were not effective as of June 30, 2019. Notwithstanding the material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting ~~described below, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of June 30, 2018. Notwithstanding the material weakness,~~referenced above, we believe the ~~condensed~~ consolidated financial statements are fairly stated in all material respects in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America for each of the periods presented herein.

~~As of June 30, we have~~We identified ~~a deficiency in our internal control over financial reporting related the Company’s valuation, accuracy~~ and presentation of deferred income tax balances that would have resulted in understating net income by $1.2 million for the three and six-month period ended June 30, 2018. Specifically, the Company’s monitoring and control activities on the valuation and presentation of our interim deferred income tax due to unrealized foreign exchange and on the accuracy of the effective tax rate were ineffective. This deficiency in internal control over financial reporting, could result indisclosed a material ~~misstatement~~weakness in the accounting for income taxes as of ~~the Company’s annual or interim financial statements that would not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. Accordingly,~~December 31, 2018, and have started to design and implement certain remediating controls gradually. We intend to continue our ~~management has determined that this control deficiency constitutes a~~remediation plan to address the material weakness.

~~The Company intends to strengthen the existing internal controls related to estimating~~We currently have most of our enhanced review procedures and ~~accounting for deferred income taxes~~documentation standards in place and ~~determining the effective tax rate so that this deficiency~~operating. Our main objective is ~~remediated. We expect~~ to remediate this ~~prior to~~material weakness by the end of fiscal year ~~2018.~~2019, in order to have enough opportunities to conclude, through our testing, that the enhanced monitoring and control activities are operating effectively as of year-end.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

~~As discussed in~~For the ~~section above,~~quarter ended June 30, 2019, there ~~were~~have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting ~~during the quarter ended June 30, 2018.~~that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect our internal control over financial reporting.
