PART I

Item 1.

Business.

Overview

We were originally formed under the name “Andina Acquisition Corporation” for the purpose of effecting a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase, recapitalization, reorganization or other similar business combination with one or more businesses or entities. On March 22, 2012, we consummated our initial public offering (the “IPO”), and on December 20, 2013, we consummated our initial business combination (the “Merger”), whereby our wholly-owned subsidiary merged with and into Tecnoglass Holding. As a result of the Merger, Tecnoglass Holding and its indirect, wholly-owned subsidiaries, TG and ES, became our direct and indirect subsidiaries. Accordingly, the business of Tecnoglass Holding and its subsidiaries became our business. We are now a holding company operating through our direct and indirect subsidiaries.

The Merger was accounted for as a reverse acquisition with Tecnoglass Holding being considered the accounting acquirer in the Merger. For accounting and financial purposes, we were treated as the acquired company, and Tecnoglass Holding was treated as the acquiring company. Accordingly, historical information, including historical financial information and the historical description of our business, for periods and dates prior to December 20, 2013, include information for Tecnoglass Holding and its subsidiaries.

Our Business

General

We are a leading manufacturer of hi-spec, architectural glass and windows for the western hemisphere residential and commercial construction industries, operating through our direct and indirect subsidiaries. Headquartered in Barranquilla, Colombia, we operate out of a 1.2 million square foot vertically-integrated, state-of-the-art manufacturing complex that provides easy access to the Americas, the Caribbean, and the Pacific.

We sell our products to more than 800 customers in North, Central and South America. The United States accounted for approximately 36% and 38% of our combined revenues in 2013 and 2012, respectively, and Panama accounted for approximately 6% and 11% of our combined revenues in 2013 and 2012, respectively. Our tailored, high-end products are found on some of the world’s most distinctive properties, including the El Dorado Airport (Bogota), Imbanaco Medical Center (Cali), Trump Plaza (Panama), Trump Tower (Miami), and The Woodlands (Houston).

TG. TG is a leading manufacturer of a variety of glass products installed primarily in commercial and residential buildings, including tempered safety, double thermo-acoustic and laminated glass. TG products are installed in hotels, residential buildings, commercial and corporate centers, universities, airports and hospitals in a variety of applications such as floating facades, curtain walls, windows, doors, handrails, interior and bathroom spatial dividers. Approximately 38% of TG products are supplied to ES for installation in various products that ES manufactures, with the balance of TG products being sold to customers throughout North, Central and South America.

TG also produces aluminum products such as profiles, rods, bars, plates and other hardware used in the manufacture of windows. In 2007, TG established its Alutions plant in Barranquilla, Colombia for extrusion, smelting, painting and anodizing processes, and for exporting, importing and marketing aluminum products. The Alutions plant contributes more than 90% of the raw materials needed for production of TG aluminum products.

Glass Magazine ranked TG as the second largest glass fabricator serving the U.S. market in 2013. We believe that it is the leading glass transformation company in Colombia, capturing 40% of the market share in the country.

ES. ES is a leader in the production of high-end windows, with more than 29 years of experience in the glass and aluminum structure assembly market in Colombia. ES designs, manufactures, markets and installs architectural systems for high, medium and low rise construction, glass and aluminum windows and doors, office dividers and interiors, floating facades and commercial display windows.

To facilitate its participation in the international market, ES’s U.S. commercial ally located in Miami, ES Windows LLC (“ESW LLC”), a company partially owned by Christian T. Daes and José M. Daes, who are also our executive officers and directors, opened two new exclusive distributors in Florida aimed at international customers: AIP (Miami) and IFP (Fort Myers). ESW LLC is a member of the American Architectural Manufacturers Association, a technical information center for the architecture industry with highest standards. ESW LLC sends project specifications and orders from its clients to ES, and in turn, receives pricing quotes from ES which are conveyed to the client. ESW LLC does not install any of our products.

Based on our knowledge of the south Florida construction market, we believe that ES participated in 80% of the high rise building projects in South Florida in the years leading up to the 2008 economic crises through the sale of its products to RC Aluminum Industries (“RC Aluminum”). ES also possesses the requisite permits to commercialize hurricane windows in Miami-Dade County, Florida, one of the most demanding certifications in the world for manufacturers of windows and window frames.

Through sales to customers such as National Enclosure Company (“NEC”) and Enclos Corp. (“Enclos”), ES has expanded its U.S. sales outside of the Florida market for windows, into the high-tech market for curtain walls, a product that is in high demand and represents a new trend in architecture, and floating facades. Due to the sophistication of these new products, ES believes that sales of curtain walls will generate higher margins as compared to traditional window frames from walls or floor to ceiling windows. Curtain walls produced by ES are composed of “high performance” materials that are produced by Alutions and TG with state of the art technology.

In Panama, ES sells products primarily to companies participating in large construction projects in the most exclusive areas of Panama City. For example, ES products were supplied in the construction of the tallest building in Central and South America, The Point, as well as in the construction of other modern hotels in the region such as Megapolis and The Trump. Based on ES’s knowledge of the construction market in Central America, we have entered into one of the highest value window supply contracts in the hotel industry in Central America for the Hotel Soho with an estimated value of $9.0 million.

Competitive Strengths

Vertical Integration

We believe we are unique in vertically integrating the purchase of raw materials, the manufacture of glass and aluminum products and the subsequent production of customized glass and windows for architectural and industrial settings. By vertically integrating these functions, we are able to price our products competitively while maintaining strict quality control measures to guarantee the high quality of our products. Additionally, we benefit from significant advantages in efficiency and time-to-market for new or customized products. This vertically integrated model provides attractive margins with significant operating leverage.

Innovation

We have made significant investments in machinery and equipment in order to utilize the latest technology on our production lines, including a recently completed approximately $27 million capital investment in land, warehouses and state-of-the-art glass making equipment thereby expanding our manufacturing capacity. For certain of our products, we offer DuPont Sentryglas® laminated glass interlayers which are recognized as industry-leading laminated glass solutions with five times the resistance strength of other materials available on the market. We also use a laminator and jumbo tempering oven capable of producing extra-large slabs of laminated glass which are sought after in the high-end window market. These investments in machinery and equipment, together with our highly trained labor force, allow us to offer state-of-the-art custom designed products quickly modified to meet customer demands. We also have a staff of specialists dedicated to product design in order to meet customer specifications.

Superior Customer Service

In addition to manufacturing high quality products, our value proposition to our customers is based on industry-leading lead times, on-time delivery and superior after-sale support. Through the coordinated efforts of our sales teams, product specialists, and field service teams, we deliver high quality service to our customers, from the time the initial order is placed through the delivery and installation of our products. By providing an efficient flow of product from order through delivery, our manufacturing processes allow us to deliver made-to-order products consistently on time, which we believe is an important competitive strength.

Management Experience

José Daes, our chief executive officer, and Christian Daes, our chief operating officer, have more than 30 and 25 years of industry experience, respectively. In addition, our executive management teams have worked together for many years at our operating subsidiaries. This long tenure in the industry, and as a team, has enabled our management to build significant relationships with both clients and field level management. We believe that these relationships, coupled with management’s strong technical expertise, create a significant competitive advantage.

Location

Our headquarters and manufacturing campus is located in Barranquilla, Colombia, which is strategically located near three major ports in Barranquilla, Cartagena and Santa Marta. These ports, which are only two hours’ drive from each other, provide us with sea access to all major markets globally.

High Barriers to Entry

Entry into many of the markets that we serve is limited due to the technical certifications required on high specification building projects. Our success is due in large part to the breadth of our product offering and our reputation for delivering high quality, made-to-order architectural glass on time. These factors are required to compete successfully for multimillion dollar projects typical of our business. Given the vertically-integrated nature of our operations, including the aluminum extrusion products provided by TG, there is a more limited set of competitors and entry into these markets. In addition, the equipment needed to operate in the glass and window industry is expensive, requiring a significant upfront capital investment.

Competitive pricing

We offer our customers highly competitive prices due to efficiencies realized from vertical integration and low labor costs. These competitive advantages allow us great flexibility in pricing their components to be competitive in a variety of markets.

Strategy

We have identified the following items that we believe are important in advancing our business:

Continued investments in machinery and equipment with state-of-the-art technology

We spend approximately $1.7 million per year in designing and developing new products. Additionally, during 2013 we made approximately $10 million in capital investments in warehouses and construction and $19 million investment in state-of-the-art glass making equipment, including jumbo tempering machines capable of producing extra-large glass dimensions, thereby expanding our manufacturing capacity by over 50,000 square feet for TG and over 100,000 square feet for ES in order to double our combined capacity for the next three years.

Development of additional high value products

We have a demonstrated track record of developing new products and will continue to focus on capitalizing on new product opportunities in the future. We constantly identify shifting global trends and growing marketplace needs, and design proposals to meet those needs. A feasibility and tuning program, including testing at specialized laboratories in the U.S., is carried out before marketing a new product. One example is the development of “Thermal Break” products, which consists of extruding two profiles of glass and binding them through a thermal insulator which provides the same structural resistance of aluminum. Thermal Break products are designed for regions that endure extreme temperatures, such as Canada and the northern U.S.

Manufacture the highest quality products in the market through a rigorous quality assurance program

Our plants are organized internally by processes, each of which is independently and continually supervised by the Quality Assurance department. The Quality Assurance department maintains rigorous oversight over energy, water, recyclable waste and process optimization indicators, in order to produce high quality sustainable products. Approximately 30% of all our waste is recycled.

Continued vertical integration provides margin enhancement

We benefit from operating together under a combined facility, providing advantages in meeting customer and market needs and managing costs. By continuing to expand our degree of vertical integration, we can further enhance productivity, create cost efficiencies and increase operating margins.

Leverage strength in Colombia market to further penetrate Latin America

With a strong base in Colombia, we have already successfully expanded into nearby geographies. Our glass products are featured in major construction projects in Argentina, Aruba, Costa Rica, Panama and Puerto Rico. As the construction market throughout Latin America grows, we are positioned to capture new growth in the markets we have currently penetrated, as well as in new high growth countries.

Leverage strength in Florida market to further penetrate U.S.

We believe we have an established and leading presence in the Florida construction market as providers of high value, impact-resistant glass products. ES’s hurricane-proof products are certified in compliance with the stringent requirements of hurricane-proof windows in accordance with applicable U.S. regulations. With a quality of product proven by our success and compliance in the impact-resistant market, we have successfully entered the U.S. remodeling and replacement parts market. In addition, we have the opportunity to grow geographically in the U.S., particularly into other coastal markets on the East Coast which are affected by hurricanes, significant temperature fluctuations and other extreme weather.

Maintain fast and reliable delivery to customers due to strategic location

From the Port of Barranquilla, products can be transported to Panama in one hour and to Houston and Miami within two hours by air, within two days by sea to Panama and within four days by sea to Houston and Miami.

Penetrate additional markets

With a strong base in Colombia and Florida, we will seek to expand into further geographies, such as Asia and Europe. We believe the centralized location of the Port of Barranquilla will aid in our expanding into such new markets.

Products

TG manufactures and sells the following products:

Laminated/Thermo-Laminated Glass — produced by bonding two glass sheets with an intermediate film in-between. As a safety feature, this product fractures into small pieces if it breaks.

Brands and Trademarks

Our brands include Tecnoglass, ES Windows and Alutions. Our registered trademarks include “Alutions by Tecnoglass” with the accompanying logo and “Alutions”. Tecnoglass and ES Windows are not registered as trademarks by us.

Sales, Marketing and Customer Service

Sales and marketing

Our sales strategy primarily focuses on attracting and retaining customers by consistently providing exceptional customer service, leading product quality, and competitive pricing. Our customers also value their shorter lead times, knowledge of building code requirements and technical expertise, which collectively generate significant customer loyalty. Our products are marketed using a combination of their internal sales representatives and independent sales representatives and directly to distributors. Our internal sales representatives receive performance-based compensation based on sales and profitability metrics. We primarily market our products based on product quality, outstanding service, shorter lead times and on-time delivery.

Customer Service

We believe that our ability to provide customers outstanding service quality serves as a strong competitive differentiator. Our customer relationships are established and maintained through the coordinated efforts of our sales and production teams. We employ a team of highly seasoned professionals devoted to addressing customer support with the goal of resolving any issue in a timely manner. In order to promote customer loyalty and employee development, we developed ES Windows University with the primary objectives of training employees to be aware of client and supplier needs and familiarizing them with the our strategic goals in order to improve the competitiveness, productivity and quality of all products and services offered.

Working Capital Requirements

Trade accounts receivable is our largest component of working capital, including receivables relating to contractual retention amounts that can be outstanding throughout the project duration for large-scale architectural projects. Our inventory requirements are not significant since our products are made-to-order rather than build-to-stock. As a result, inventory levels follow customer demand for products produced.

Customers

Our customers include architects, building owners, general contractors and glazing subcontractors in the commercial construction market. We have over 800 customers. Of our 200 most representative customers, about 18% are located in North America, 15% in Central America and 67 % in South America. Excluding revenue from related parties, no customer accounted for 10% or more of our net sales during 2013 or 2012.

Materials and Suppliers

Our primary manufacturing materials include glass, ionoplast, polyvinyl butyral, aluminum and vinyl extrusions. Although in some instances we have agreements with our suppliers, these agreements are generally terminable by us or the supplier counterparties on limited notice. Typically, all of our materials are readily available from a number of sources, and no supplier delays or shortages are anticipated.

We source raw materials and glass necessary to manufacture our products from a variety of domestic and foreign suppliers. Our main supplier of glass is PPG Industries, located in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, one of the world’s leading producers of glass products. In 2013 and 2012, PPG supplied TG with 19% and 21% of its raw material requirements, respectively. Our main suppliers of aluminum are Danostro S.A.S., a Colombian company, and Mitsubishi International Corporation.

Warranties

We offer product warranties which we believe are competitive for the markets in which our products are sold. The nature and extent of these warranties depend upon the product. Our standard warranties are generally from five to ten years for architectural glass, curtain wall, laminated and tempered glass, window and door products. In the event of a claim against a product for which we have received a warranty from the supplier, we pass the claim back to the supplier.

Certifications

Among our many designations and certifications, TG has earned The Miami-Dade County Notice of Acceptance, one of the most demanding certificates in the industry and a requirement to market hurricane-resistant glass in Florida. TG’s products comply with Miami-Dade county’s safety code standards as its laminated anti-hurricane glass resists impact, pressure, water and wind. TG is also the only company in Latin America authorized by PPG Industries and Guardian Industries to manufacture floating glass facades.

Our subsidiaries have received a number of other certifications from other national and international standard-setting bodies.

TG Certifications include:

Competitors

We have local competitors in Colombia as well as competitors in the markets internationally, in each of the glass, aluminum and finished products sectors. Glass Technologia en Vidrios y Ventanas S.A., Arquicentro S.A., Industrias Lehner and Aluminum Estructural S.A. compete with us in Colombia in the finished products market. Apogee Enterprises, Inc., PGT, Inc. and WinDoor Inc. compete with us in the U.S. in the finished products market. Golden Glass Security, Vid-plex Universal S.A., Aluace Ltda and Laminados y Blindados compete with us locally in the glass and aluminum markets. Oldcastle, Inc., Trulite Inc., and PRL Glass Systems among others compete with us in the U.S. in the glass and aluminum products markets.

The key factors on which we and our competitors compete for business include: quality, price, reputation, breadth of products and service offerings, and production speed. We face intense competition from both smaller and larger market players who compete against us in our various markets including glass, window and aluminum manufacturing. As we attempt to expand into Asian markets, we face competition from local and regional Asian competitors with low labor costs as well.

The principal methods of competition in the window and door industry are the development of long-term relationships with window and door distributors and dealers, and the retention of customers by delivering a full range of high-quality customized products on demand with short turnaround times while offering competitive pricing. The vertical integration of our operations, our geographic scope, low labor costs and economies of scale have helped our subsidiaries consolidate their leading position in Colombia and bolstered their expansion in the U.S. and other foreign markets.

Sales and Marketing

We employ a limited number of in-house sales employees. Most of our sales and marketing efforts are handled by area sales representatives who work on a commission basis.

We do not rely on significant traditional advertising expenditures to drive net sales. We have established and maintain credibility primarily through the strength of our products, our customer service and quality assurance, the speed at which we deliver finished products and the attractiveness of our pricing. Our advertising expenditures consist primarily of maintaining our subsidiaries’ websites.

Backlog

We had combined outstanding orders of $120 million as of December 31, 2013, as compared to $110 million as of December 31, 2012. Our backlog is comprised mostly of ES’ contract sales for projects that can last up to several years until completion. Backlog grew less than sales between December 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012 as a result of an increase of sales in non-contract form, standard sales. We do not believe that backlog is indicative of our future results of operations or prospects.

Government Regulations

We are subject to extensive and varied federal, state and local government regulation in the jurisdictions in which we operate, including laws and regulations relating to our relationships with our employees, public health and safety and fire codes. Additionally, certain of the jurisdictions in which we operate require that installation of doors and windows be approved by competent authorities that grant distribution licenses.

Although our business and facilities are subject to federal, state and local environmental regulation, environmental regulation does not have a material impact on our operations.

Research and Development

During the years ended December 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, we spent approximately $1.7 and $0.7 million in research and development. During 2013 the design and production of new matrices for the extrusion of aluminum profiles for new products and improvements on existing ones represented an increase of $1.0 million compared with the previous year.

Our commercial ally in the United States, ES Windows LLC bears significant costs related to the development of new products, since they pay for the external tests than need to be performed on our products in order to comply with strict building codes. ESWindows LLC is fully permitted to commercialize hurricane windows in the Miami-Dade County, Florida, which has one of the most demanding certifications in the world of window frames.

Employees

As of December 31, 2013, we had a total of 3,102 employees, with 2,031 employed directly by ES and 1,071 employed directly by TG, none of whom is represented by a union. Most of our employees are hired through seven temporary staffing companies and are employed under one-year fixed-term employment contracts. Management believes it has good relations with our employees. We provide ongoing training programs to our employees through the self-established E.S. Windows University.

Company History

We were formed under the name “Andina Acquisition Corporation” as an exempted company incorporated in the Cayman Islands on September 21, 2011 in order to effect a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase, recapitalization, reorganization or other similar business combination with one or more businesses or entities.

On March 22, 2012, we closed our IPO of 4,000,000 units, with each unit consisting of one ordinary share and one warrant to purchase one ordinary share at an exercise price of $8.00 per share. On March 30, 2012, we consummated the closing of the sale of an additional 200,000 units which were sold subject to the underwriters’ over-allotment option. The 4,200,000 units sold in the IPO, including the units sold subject to the over-allotment option, were sold at an offering price of $10.00 per unit, generating total gross proceeds of $42,000,000. Simultaneously with the consummation of the IPO, we consummated a private placement of 4,800,000 warrants (“private warrants”) at a price of $0.50 per warrant and, to the underwriters, options to purchase an aggregate of 900,000 units at a price of $500,100, generating total proceeds of $2,900,100. After deducting the underwriting discounts and commissions and the offering expenses, the total net proceeds to us were $43,163,000 (which included the $2,900,100 we received from the sale of warrants and the underwriters’ unit purchase options), of which $42,740,000 was deposited into a trust account. The remaining proceeds of $423,000 became available to be used as working capital to provide for business, legal and accounting due diligence on prospective business combinations and continuing general and administrative expenses. The IPO was conducted pursuant to a registration statement on Form S-1 (Reg. No. 333-178061), that became effective on March 16, 2012.

From the consummation of our IPO until August 17, 2013, we were searching for a suitable target business to acquire. On August 17, 2013, we entered into an agreement and plan of reorganization, pursuant to which agreement, as amended, we acquired Tecnoglass Holding, TG and ES as direct and indirect subsidiaries. On December 20, 2013, we held an extraordinary general meeting of our shareholders, at which our shareholders approved the Merger and other related proposals. On the same date, we closed the Merger and Tecnoglass Holding and its indirect, wholly-owned subsidiaries, TG and ES, became our direct and indirect subsidiaries.

Tecnoglass Holding is a corporation formed under the laws of the Cayman Islands that was founded in 2014 in connection with the Merger. TG is a corporation formed under the laws of Colombia that was founded in 1994 by Jose M. Daes, our Chief Executive Officer, and Christian T. Daes, our Chief Operating Officer. ES is a corporation formed under the laws of Colombia that was founded in 1984 by Jose M. Daes and Christian Daes.

At the closing of the Merger, 2,251,853 of the 4,200,000 public shares sold in our IPO were converted to cash at a conversion price of approximately $10.18 per share, or an aggregate of approximately $22.9 million of the approximately $42.7 million held in the trust account. As consideration for the merger, we issued Energy Holding Corp., a holding company and sole shareholder of Tecnoglass Holding, of which former shareholders of TG and ES are the sole shareholders, an aggregate of 20,567,141 ordinary shares, or approximately 87% of the outstanding ordinary shares. Energy Holding Corp. also has the contractual right to receive an additional 3,000,000 ordinary shares, to be released upon the attainment of specified share price targets or targets based on our EBITDA in the fiscal years ending December 31, 2014, 2015 or 2016.

In connection with the Merger, we changed our name to “Tecnoglass Inc.” We also changed our fiscal year end from February 28^th to December 31^stin order to coincide with the fiscal year end of Tecnoglass Holding and its subsidiaries.

Additional Information About the Company

We maintain websites for our subsidiaries, TG and ES, which can be found at www.tecnoglass.com and www.energiasolarsa.com, respectively. Although we do not have a website dedicated to Tecnoglass Inc., the corporate filings of Tecnoglass Inc., including our Annual Reports on Form 10-K, our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, our Current Reports on Form 8-K, our proxy statements and reports filed by our executive officers and directors under Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act, and any amendments to those filings, are available free of charge on the Investor Relations page of each of the subsidiary websites, which are updated as soon as reasonably practicable after we electronically file (or furnish in certain cases) such material with the Securities and Exchange Commission. We do not intend for information contained in either subsidiary website, including the Investor Relations pages, to be a part of this Form 10-K.

We are an “emerging growth company,” as defined in the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act (or JOBS Act), and are eligible to take advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable to other public companies that are not emerging growth companies. However, we have irrevocably opted not to take advantage of one such exemption which would have allowed us an extended transition period for complying with new or revised accounting standards. We are, and will continue to be, subject to the same new or revised accounting standards as other public companies that are not emerging growth companies.

We could remain an emerging growth company until the last day of our fiscal year following March 22, 2017 (the fifth anniversary of the consummation of our initial public offering). However, if our non-convertible debt issued within a three-year period or our total revenues exceed $1 billion or the market value of our ordinary shares that are held by non-affiliates exceeds $700 million on the last day of the second fiscal quarter of any given fiscal year, we would cease to be an emerging growth company as of the following fiscal year.

Properties.

We own and operate a 1.2 million square foot manufacturing complex located in Barranquilla, Colombia. This manufacturing campus houses a glass production plant, aluminum plant and window and facade assembly plant. The glass plant has four lamination machines with independent assembly rooms, six specialized tempering furnaces and glass molding furnaces, a computer numerical-controlled profile bending machine, as well as five silk-screening machines. The Alutions plant has an effective installed capacity of 1,000 tons per month and can create a variety of shapes and forms for windows, doors and related products. We also own three natural gas power generation plants with a capacity of 1,750 kilowatts each which supply the electricity requirements of the entire manufacturing complex and are supported by three emergency generators.

We believe that our existing properties are adequate for the current operating requirements of our business and that additional space will be available as needed.

Item 3.

Legal Proceedings.

TG and Tecnoglass USA, Inc., a related party, are named in civil actions for wrongful death, negligence and negligent infliction of emotional distress arising out of a workplace accident where a crate of glass fell and fatally crushed a worker during the unloading process. The case, Olga Conesa, as Personal Representative of the Estate of Wilfredo Tour Fernandez, deceased, and Efrain Tour Roa v. Tecnoglass USA, Inc., Tecnoglass SA, Power Dispatch, Inc., and Amaurys Alvarez, Case No. 11-26873 CA 31, is pending in the Circuit Court of the Eleventh Judicial Circuit in and for Miami-Dade County, Florida. Plaintiff Olga Conesa is the widow of the worker and has filed the claim on behalf of the Estate, herself and her minor children. Plaintiff Efrain Tour Roa, the decedent's son, also claims he was injured in the accident and is seeking compensatory damages. TG denies liability and intends to rigorously defend the claim. Because the plaintiffs are only suing for non-economic damages (i.e., pain and suffering and loss of enjoyment of husband/father), the total maximum exposure is difficult to predict. TG’s insurance carrier, AIG, is providing coverage to TG under a $3 million wasting policy, which means that the attorneys’ fees and expenses incurred during the defense of the claim reduce the amount of coverage available. The case is scheduled for the trial calendar in Miami-Dade County beginning September 15, 2014.

TG is also a named defendant in In the matter of Diplomat Properties, Limited Partnership as assignee of Shower Concepts, Inc. v. Tecnoglass Colombia, S.A. et al., Case No. CACE 11-02811(09), 17th Judicial Circuit in and for Broward County, Florida.Plaintiff Diplomat Properties, Limited (“Diplomat”) has asserted a claim for indemnification against TG and Tecnoglass USA, a related party. The claim arises from the supplying of glass shower doors to a hotel/spa in Broward County, Florida. Specifically, in 2006, Diplomat commenced arbitration against Shower Concepts, Inc. seeking damages for breach of contract due to fractures in the installed glass shower doors. The claim was based upon a contract between Diplomat and Shower Concepts for the sale and installation of glass shower and bath doors to be used by Diplomat in hotel that it owned. Shower Concepts chose not to defend against the breach of contract claim and in 2007, the arbitrator rendered an award in the amount of approximately $2 million in favor of Diplomat and against Shower Concepts. The award was confirmed by the Circuit Court and, on July 23, 2008, a final judgment for breach of contract was entered against Shower Concepts. No appeal of the decision was made. On August 11, 2009, Shower Concepts assigned its rights under the contract to Diplomat. On November 9, 2011, Diplomat initiated the underlying action against the Tecnoglass entities and co-defendant, Guardian Industries Corp. The complaint asserted various claims which were dismissed with prejudice. The only remaining claim against the Tecnoglass entities is common law indemnification. TG denies liability and asserts that Shower Concepts was at fault and that as a joint tortfeasor, it cannot sue for indemnity. A trial date has not yet been set for this case.

Use of Proceeds

On November 18, 2011, we filed a registration statement on Form S-1 (File No. 333- 178061) for our IPO, which was declared effective on March 16, 2012. We paid a total of $1,260,000 in underwriting discounts and $477,000 for other costs and expenses related to the IPO. Of the remaining proceeds from the IPO, we placed $39,840,000, plus $2,900,000 from a simultaneous private placement, in a trust account to be used to effectuate our initial business combination. The remaining $423,000 became available to be used, and was used, as working capital to provide for business, legal and accounting due diligence on prospective business combinations and continuing general and administrative expenses.

Upon consummation of the Merger, we paid from the trust account (i) approximately $2.2 million to EarlyBirdCapital, Inc. and Morgan Joseph TriArtisan LLC for assisting us in structuring and negotiating the Merger and rendering merger and acquisition advisory services to us, (iii) approximately $1 million for legal fees and expenses, (iii) approximately $22,900,000 to our shareholders who elected to convert their ordinary shares to cash upon consummation of the Merger and (iv) approximately $700,000 for other miscellaneous expenses in connection with consummating the Merger. The remaining proceeds of approximately $15.9 million will be used by us for our working capital needs.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION

AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS OF TECNOGLASS AND ES

The following discussion of the Company’s financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with the Company’s consolidated financial statements and notes to those statements included in this Form 10-K. This discussion contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. Please see the section entitled “Forward-Looking Statements and Introduction” in this Form 10-K.

Overview

The Company is a holding company operating through its indirect, wholly-owned subsidiaries: TG, which manufactures, transforms, markets and exports a variety of glass products since 1994 and established the Alutions plant in 2007 for aluminum products, and ES, a leader in the production of high-end windows and architectural glass systems. We have more than 30 years’ experience in the glass and aluminum structure assembly market in Colombia.

TG manufactures both glass and aluminum products. Its glass products include tempered glass, laminated glass, thermo-acoustic glass, curved glass, silk-screened glass, acoustic glass and digital print glass. Its Alutions plant produces mill finished, anodized, painted aluminum profiles and rods, tubes, bars and plates. Alutions’ operations include extrusion, smelting, painting and anodizing processes, and exporting, importing and marketing aluminum products.

The services portfolio of ES includes design, manufacture, marketing and installation of architectural systems for high, medium and low rise construction, glass and aluminum windows and doors, office dividers and interiors, floating facades and commercial display windows. ES has participated in 80% of the High Rise Building projects in South Florida through a strategic alliance with RC Aluminum.

ES also signed an agreement with AM Craft for the distribution of PVC products and obtained the Step Up program with Broward Housing Authority in charge of Sales in the Caribbean Islands.

Through sales to customers such as NEC and Enclos Corp, ES has expanded its US sales outside of the Florida market, entering into high-tech markets for curtain walls, giving ES a niche market access since this product is in high demand and marks a new trend in architecture. It is a very sophisticated product and therefore garners high margins for ES, far superior to the traditional window frames from walls or floor to ceiling. These products involve high performance materials that are produced by Alutions and TG with state of the art technology.

In Panama, ES sells products primarily to companies participating in large construction projects in the most exclusive areas of the city. For example, ES products were supplied in the construction of the tallest building in Central and South America, The Point, as well as in the construction of the most modern hotels in the region such as Megapolis and The Trump. Based on ES’s knowledge of the construction market in Central America, ES has entered into one of the highest value window supply contracts in the hotel industry in Central America for the Hotel Soho with an estimated value of $9.0 million in supplied products.

ES has also consolidated its position in the Latin American market in recent years to become one of the most important players in the region.

How the Company Generates Revenue

TG manufactures both glass and aluminum products. Its glass products include tempered glass, laminated glass, thermo-acoustic glass, curved glass, silk-screened glass, and digital print glass as well as mill finished, anodized, painted aluminum 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. ES produces fixed body, sliding windows, projecting windows, guillotine windows, sliding doors and swinging doors. ES produces façade products which include: floating facades, automatic doors bathroom dividers and commercial display windows.

TG sells to over 300 customers using several sales teams based out of Colombia to specifically target regional markets in South, Central and North America. TG has sales representatives in the United States to address that market specifically. In addition, TG has approximately 10 free-lance sales representatives in North America.

ES sells its products through four main offices/sales teams based out of Colombia, Peru, Panama and the US. The Colombia sales team is the largest sales group, which has deep contacts throughout the construction industry. The Colombia sales team markets both ES’s products as well as installation services. The Peruvian office is responsible for South American sales, excluding Colombia. Its sales forces in Panama and the US are not via subsidiaries but arms-length agreements with sales representatives. ES has two types of sales operations: Contract sales, which are the high-dollar, specifically-tailored customer projects; and Standard Form Sales.

Liquidity and Cash Flow

During the years ended in December 31, 2013 and 2012, $10.7 million and $(7.3) million were generated and used from operations and $8.4 million and $9.2 million were generated from debt.

On December 20, 2013 as a result of the reverse merger described in Item 1 to this Form 10-K, $42.7 million were released from the Company’s trust fund. Holders of 2,251,853 ordinary shares of the Company issued in its IPO exercised their rights to convert those shares to cash for approximately $22.9 million. The Company also entered into subscription agreements with two investors to purchase 649,382 ordinary shares for an aggregate of $6.6 million. After approximately $3.9 million in transaction expenses, these transactions generated $22.5 million for working capital and general corporate purposes in December 2013.

As a subsequent event, on March 5, 2014, the Company entered into a subscription agreement with an affiliate of A. Lorne Weil, the Company’s Non-Executive Chairman of the Board, pursuant to which such affiliate agreed to purchase an aggregate of 95,693 ordinary shares of the Company for $1,000,000, or approximately $10.45 per share, representing a slight premium to the closing price of the ordinary shares immediately prior to the execution of the subscription agreement. The transaction closed on March 14, 2014.

As of December 31, 2013 and 2012, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of approximately $2.9 million and $2.1 million, respectively.

The Company expects that its cash flow from operations, proceeds from borrowings under the company’s lines of credit, and proceeds from the reverse merger will be its primary sources of liquidity and will be sufficient to fund the Company’s cash requirements for the next twelve months.

Additionally, the Company could receive up to $90.2 million from the exercise of warrants and unit purchase options comprised of: up to $40 million upon the exercise of all of the insider warrants and working capital warrants, up to $9.4 million upon the exercise of the unit purchase options, up to $7.2 million upon the exercise of the warrants underlying such unit purchase options and up to $33.6 million upon the exercise of the warrants issued in the Company’s IPO. Any amounts received from such exercises will be used for working capital and other general corporate purposes.

Capital Resources

The Company transforms glass and aluminum which requires significant investments in state of the art technology. During the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, the Company made investments primarily in building and construction, and machinery and equipment in the amount of $26.5 million and $25.9 million.

Net income (loss)		22,312		5,892

Comparison of years ended December 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012

The Company’s net operating revenues increased from $130 million in 2012 to $183 million in 2013, or 40%. The increase mostly was driven by planning strategies designed to increase participation in the U.S. market.

The increase is partially due to high quality, reliability, and competitive prices which allowed the Company to further penetrate its existing markets. Sales increase in the U.S. market has accounted for an $17.6 million increase. The increase is also partially due to a diversification of markets within the country since the Company’s sales in the U.S. have historically been in the South Florida region and is now expanding to other regions of the United States. Additionally, the Company has increased market share in the national market with timely delivery, competitive prices, and high quality. Excluding related party sales, sales in Colombia grew by $38.5 million, which represents a 61% increase.

Costs of sales increased $33 million from 2012 to 2013. Purchase of raw materials grew by $21.5 million, or 40%, in direct relation with the increase in sales. The cost of direct labor did not experience significant growth. During previous years the cost of direct labor had grown faster than sales, because there is a lag between when new employees are hired and the company benefits fully from the new hires as most employees at the Company undergo extensive training which usually takes several months. Indirect costs of manufacturing grew $8.7 million. The increase in indirect cost of manufacturing is below the growth level for sales since many of these are fixed costs. Increases were mostly experienced in purchases of natural gas because of increased price and shipping charges.

Selling and Administrative Expenses increased 18%, or $4.3 million, from 2012 to 2013. The increase was comprised of an increase in Selling Expenses of $5.5 million due to increases in the cost of shipping, insurance and personnel offset by a decrease in administrative expenses of $1.3 million comprised mostly due decrease in rent expense.

An extraordinary gain in non-operating income of $7.6 million arose from the decrease in the fair value of the Warrants liability.

As a result of the foregoing, net income increased 278% from $5.9 million in 2012 to $22.3 million in 2013.

Operating activities

Net cash used in operating activities was $10.7 million, and $(7.3) million during years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively. Major uses of cash are as follows:

	December 31, 2013		December 31, 2012
Payments to Suppliers and Employees		121.3		83.1

Taxes		2.7		2.3

Increases in payments to suppliers and employees are a direct consequence of the increase in cost of sales in line with the increase of sales.

Major differences between our net income and cash provided by operating activities are primarily depreciation, along with the timing differences between when we recognize revenues and expenses and when those revenues and expenses are collected or paid.

Investing activities

On December 20, 2013, the Company raised $22.3 million in a reverse merger with Andina Acquisition Corporation.

Financing activities

Our net cash used in financing activities was $8.4 million, $9.2 million during the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We did not have any off-balance sheet arrangements as of December 31, 2013.

Contractual Obligations

Future contractual obligations represent an impact to future cash flows as shown in the table for the period ending December 31:

	Payments Due by Period
Contractual Obligations	TOTAL		Less than 1 year		1-3 years		3-5 years		More than 5 years
Long Term Debt Obligations		48,254		14,850		24,098		8,321		985
Capital Lease Obligations		17,833		3,141		6,060		3,426		5,206
Total		66,087		17,991		30,158		11,747		6,191

The above financial liabilities do not include future interest to be paid on this debt, as such rates are variable. The average interest rate is approximately 9.4% and 9.5% per annum for long term debt and capital lease obligations respectively and can vary up or down in accordance with money market rates in Colombia.

Changes in and Disagreements with Accountants on Accounting and Financial Disclosures.

Crowe Horwath CO S.A. (“Crowe”), an independent registered public accounting firm, audited the consolidated financial statements for each of TG and ES at December 31, 2012 and 2011, and for each of the two years in the period ended December 31, 2012 (independently for each company). Upon consummation of the Merger, Marcum LLC (“Marcum”) was selected as the auditor for the Company, including its subsidiaries.

Crowe’s report on the consolidated financial statements for each of TG and ES at December 31, 2012 and 2011, and for each of the two years in the period ended December 31, 2012, did not contain an adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion, nor were such reports qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope, or accounting principles. During the period of Crowe’s engagement by each of TG and ES, and the subsequent interim period preceding Crowe’s dismissal, there were no disagreements with Crowe on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure, which if not resolved to the satisfaction of Crowe, would have caused it to make a reference to the subject matter of the disagreement(s) in connection with its reports covering such periods. In addition, no “reportable events,” as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K, occurred within the period of Crowe’s engagement and the subsequent interim period preceding Crowe’s dismissal.

ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We carried out an evaluation required by Rule 13a-15 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of Tecnoglass, Inc. “disclosure controls and procedures” and “internal control over financial reporting” as of the end of the period covered by this Annual Report. Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, because of the material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting described below, our disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 were not effective. Notwithstanding the material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2013 described below, we believe that the consolidated financial statements contained in this report present our financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows for the fiscal years covered thereby in all material respects. To address the material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting described below the Company performed additional manual procedures and analysis and other post-closing procedures in order to prepare the consolidated financial statements included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as that term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, we conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting based on the framework in Internal Control — Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) of 2013.

This Form 10-K does not include an attestation report of our independent registered certified public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by our independent registered certified public accounting firm pursuant to the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, as amended, and the rules of the SEC promulgated thereunder, which permit the Company to provide only management’s report in this Annual Report.

A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes policies and procedures that: (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company, (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company, and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

In accordance with the internal control reporting requirements of the Securities and Exchange Commission management used the criteria set forth in the Internal Control—Integrated Framework by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”) of 2013 to make its assessment. The COSO framework summarizes each of the components of a company’s internal control system, including the: (i) control environment, (ii) risk assessment, (iii) information and communication, and (iv) monitoring (collectively, the “entity-level controls”), as well as a company’s control activities (“process-level controls”).

Management’s evaluation of the design and operating effectiveness of our internal controls over financial reporting identified material weaknesses resulting from design and operating deficiencies in the internal control system. A “material weakness” is defined as a significant deficiency or combination of significant deficiencies, that results in more than a remote likelihood that a material misstatement of the annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected. A “significant deficiency” is defined as a control deficiency, or combination of control deficiencies, that adversely affects the Company’s ability to initiate, authorize, record, process, or report external financial data reliably in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles such that there is more than a remote likelihood that a misstatement of the Company’s annual or interim financial statements that is more than inconsequential will not be prevented or detected.

Management identified the following material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2013:

Entity-Level Control – We have not established effective internal controls for the timely identification of significant, non-routine, unusual, or complex events or transactions, inclusive of significant related party transactions and for policies related to management evaluation of certain accounting estimates.

Financial Closing and Reporting Process - We have not established adequate policies and procedures related to accounting and closing practices for interim and annual financial reporting, including sufficient knowledge required for accounting and financial reporting per the requirements of accounting principles generally accepted in the United States as well as periodic filing requirements with the SEC.

Revenue Accounting – We have not developed adequate internal controls over revenue recognition related to fixed price contract revenue in accordance with the percentage completion method.

Management’s Plan to Remediate Material Weaknesses

Management will be taking the following steps to remediate the remaining material weaknesses as follows:

· Hiring a sufficient number of full-time personnel with the requisite background, education and experience in our finance department

· Implementing more stringent policies and procedures regarding revenue accounting and oversight of contractual arrangements

· Conducting formal revenue recognition training sessions for key accounting and sales personnel

· Implementing formal procedures for the consistent processing of and accounting for fixed asset transactions, including a formal review process

· Implementing formal procedures for estimating valuation allowances for inventory, including a formal review process

· Implementing a standard financial statement reporting process, such as an accounting and close check-list, and a formal reporting package, to be used by all departments in order for them to report information accurately, timely and in a standard format to our finance department

· Improving the documentation, communication, and periodic review of our accounting policies throughout our domestic and international locations for consistency with general accepted accounting principles

· Implementing a formalized accounting policy that addresses the appropriate procedures for significant, non-routine, unusual, or complex events or transactions

· Increased management oversight by creating a new Disclosure Committee comprised of senior managers with responsibility for responding to issues raised during the financial reporting process

· Improving the interim and annual review and reconciliation process for certain key balance sheet accounts

· Enhancing the training and education for our international finance and accounting personnel and new hires to our finance team

Section 16(a) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance

Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 requires our officers, directors and persons who own more than ten percent of a registered class of our equity securities to file reports of ownership and changes in ownership with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Officers, directors and ten percent shareholders are required by regulation to furnish us with copies of all Section 16(a) reports they file. Based solely on a review of such reports received by us and written representations from certain reporting persons that no Form 5s were required for those persons, we believe that, during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2013, all reports required to be filed by our officers, directors and persons who own more than ten percent of a registered class of our equity securities were filed on a timely basis except for the following: (i) Forms 3 for each of Jose M. Daes, Christian T. Daes, Samuel Azout, Juan Carlos Vilarino and Joaquin Fernandez, each filed separately on March 18 , 2014, (ii) a Form 3 filed jointly by Energy Holding Corporation and Alberto Velilla Becerra filed on April 15, 2014 and (ii) a Form 4 for Joaquin Fernandez filed on April 15, 2014.

Code of Ethics

In March 2012, we adopted a code of ethics that applies to all of our executive officers, directors and employees. The code of ethics codifies the business and ethical principles that govern all aspects of our business. We will provide, without charge, upon request, copies of our code of ethics. Requests for copies of our code of ethics should be sent in writing to TG Inc., Avenida Circunvalar a 100 mts de la Via 40, Barrio Las Flores, Barranquilla, Colombia, Attn: Corporate Secretary.

Corporate Governance

Audit Committee

We have a standing audit committee of the board of directors, which consists of Martha L. Byorum, Samuel R. Azout and Julio Torres, with Martha L. Byorum serving as chairman. Each of the members of the audit committee is independent under the applicable NASDAQ listing standards.

The audit committee has a written charter, a copy of which was filed with our Definitive Proxy Statement on Schedule 14A filed with the SEC on December 4, 2013. The purpose of the audit committee is to appoint, retain, set compensation of, and supervise our independent accountants, review the results and scope of the audit and other accounting related services and review our accounting practices and systems of internal accounting and disclosure controls. The audit committee’s duties, which are specified in the audit committee charter, include, but are not limited to:

reviewing and discussing with management and the independent auditor the annual audited financial statements, and recommending to the board whether the audited financial statements should be included in our Form 10-K;

discussing with management and the independent auditor significant financial reporting issues and judgments made in connection with the preparation of our financial statements;

discussing with management major risk assessment and risk management policies;

monitoring the independence of the independent auditor;

verifying the rotation of the lead (or coordinating) audit partner having primary responsibility for the audit and the audit partner responsible for reviewing the audit as required by law;

reviewing and approving all related-party transactions;

inquiring and discussing with management our compliance with applicable laws and regulations;

pre-approving all audit services and permitted non-audit services to be performed by our independent auditor, including the fees and terms of the services to be performed;

appointing or replacing the independent auditor;

determining the compensation and oversight of the work of the independent auditor (including resolution of disagreements between management and the independent auditor regarding financial reporting) for the purpose of preparing or issuing an audit report or related work; and

establishing procedures for the receipt, retention and treatment of complaints received by us regarding accounting, internal accounting controls or reports which raise material issues regarding its financial statements or accounting policies

Financial Experts on Audit Committee

The audit committee will at all times be composed exclusively of “independent directors,” as defined for audit committee members under the NASDAQ listing standards and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission, who are “financially literate,” as defined under NASDAQ’s listing standards. NASDAQ’s listing standards define “financially literate” as being able to read and understand fundamental financial statements, including a company’s balance sheet, income statement and cash flow statement. The board of directors has determined that Martha Byorum satisfies NASDAQ’s definition of financial sophistication and also qualifies as an “audit committee financial expert” as defined under rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Nominating Committee

We have a standing nominating committee, which consists of A. Lorne Weil, Martha L. Byorum, Samuel R. Azout and Juan Carlos Vilariño, with A. Lorne Weil serving as chairperson. Each member of the nominating committee is an “independent director” as defined under NASDAQ listing standards. Pursuant to its written charter, a copy of which was filed with our Definitive Proxy Statement on Schedule 14A filed with the SEC on December 4, 2013, our nominating committee is responsible for overseeing the selection of persons to be nominated to serve on our board of directors.

Guidelines for Selecting Director Nominees

The nominating committee considers persons identified by its members, management, shareholders, investment bankers and others. Currently, the guidelines for selecting nominees, which are specified in the nominating committee charter, generally provide that persons to be nominated:

should have demonstrated notable or significant achievements in business, education or public service;

should possess the requisite intelligence, education and experience to make a significant contribution to the board of directors and bring a range of skills, diverse perspectives and backgrounds to its deliberations; and

should have the highest ethical standards, a strong sense of professionalism and intense dedication to serving the interests of the shareholders.

The nominating committee will consider a number of qualifications relating to management and leadership experience, background and integrity and professionalism in evaluating a person’s candidacy for membership on the board of directors. The nominating committee may require certain skills or attributes, such as financial or accounting experience, to meet specific board needs that arise from time to time and will also consider the overall experience and makeup of its members to obtain a broad and diverse mix of board members. The nominating committee does not distinguish among nominees recommended by shareholders and other persons.

There have been no material changes to the procedures by which shareholders may recommend nominees to the nominating committee.

Compensation Committee

We have a standing compensation committee consisting of Julio Torres, Samuel R. Azout and Juan Carlos Vilariño, with Julio Torres serving as chairperson. Pursuant to the compensation committee charter, a copy of which was filed with our Definitive Proxy Statement on Schedule 14A filed with the SEC on December 4, 2013, the compensation committee oversees our compensation and employee benefit plans and practices, including our executive, director and other incentive and equity-based compensation plans. The specific responsibilities of the compensation committee include making recommendations to the board regarding executive compensation of our executive officers and non-employee directors, administering our 2013 Long-Term Incentive Equity Plan, and preparing and reviewing compensation-related disclosure, including a compensation discussion and analysis and compensation committee report (if required), for our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Related Transactions

Pre-Merger Related Transactions of the Company

Prior to our IPO, A. Lorne Weil advanced to us an aggregate of $100,000 to cover expenses related to the IPO. The loan was payable without interest on the earlier of (i) November 8, 2012, (ii) the consummation of our IPO or (iii) the date on which we determined not to proceed with the IPO. We paid this loan using proceeds of our IPO not placed in trust.

In May 2012, our initial shareholders forfeited an aggregate of 100,000 shares since the underwriters in our IPO did not exercise their over-allotment option in full. We recorded the aggregate fair value of the shares forfeited to treasury shares and a corresponding credit to additional paid-in capital based on the difference between the fair market value of the ordinary shares forfeited and the price paid for such repurchased shares. The repurchased shares were immediately cancelled, resulting in the retirement of the treasury shares and a corresponding charge to additional paid-in capital.

Certain of the initial shareholders, including our former chief executive officers and former and certain current directors, and other persons purchased private warrants from us on a private placement basis simultaneously with the consummation of our IPO, for an aggregate purchase price of $2,400,000. The funds from such purchase were deposited into the trust account simultaneously with the consummation of our IPO. The private warrants are identical to the warrants underlying the units sold in our IPO, except that they are exercisable for cash or on a cashless basis, at the holder’s option, and will are not redeemable by us, in each case so long as such warrants are held by the initial purchasers or their permitted transferees.

On May 20, 2013, the A. Lorne Weil 2006 Irrevocable Trust — Family Investment Trust, a trust of which A. Lorne Weil, his spouse and his descendants are among the beneficiaries, loaned us $100,000 to meet our working capital needs pending our initial business combination. This loan was evidenced by a promissory note payable upon consummation of our initial business combination, in cash without interest, or, at the holder’s discretion and upon approval by our shareholders (which was obtained in connection with the Merger), by conversion into warrants at a price of $0.50 per warrant. This note was converted into 200,000 warrants upon consummation of the Merger.

ESW LLC’s ownership is as follows: 30% of its membership interests are held by Jose Daes, 20% of its membership interests are held by Christian Daes, 10% of its membership interests are held by Evelyn Daes, and the remaining 40% of membership interests are held by two Panamanian companies unaffiliated with the Daes family. Sales to ESW LLC amounted to $28.9 million and $19.6 million during the years ended in December 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012.

Merger Consideration

Energy Holding Corporation, the sole shareholder of Tecnoglass Holding whose shareholders are all of the former shareholders of Tecnoglass and ES, received 20,567,141 ordinary shares in consideration of all of the outstanding and issued ordinary shares of Tecnoglass Holding. Energy Holding Corporation may not sell or transfer its shares until December 20, 2014, subject to certain limited exceptions.

Energy Holding Corporation also has the contractual right to receive an additional 3,000,000 ordinary shares, to be released upon the attainment of specified share price targets or targets based on our EBITDA in the fiscal years ending December 31, 2014, 2015 or 2016. The following table sets forth the targets and the number of earnout shares issuable to Tecnoglass Holding shareholders upon the achievement of such targets:

	Ordinary Share		EBITDA Target				Number of Earnout Shares
	Price Target		Minimum		Maximum		Minimum		Maximum
Fiscal year ending 12/31/14	$	12.00 per share	$	30,000,000	$	36,000,000		416,667		500,000
Fiscal year ending 12/31/15	$	13.00 per share	$	35,000,000	$	40,000,000		875,000		1,000,000
Fiscal year ending 12/31/16	$	15.00 per share	$	40,000,000	$	45,000,000		1,333,333		1,500,000

If either the ordinary share target or the maximum EBITDA target is met in any fiscal year, Energy Holding Corporation receives the maximum number of earnout shares indicated for the year. In the event the ordinary share target is not met but the combined company’s EBITDA falls within the minimum and maximum EBITDA target for a specified year, the number of earnout shares to be issued will be interpolated between such targets. In the event neither the ordinary share target nor the minimum EBITDA target is met in a particular year, but a subsequent year’s share price or EBITDA target is met, Energy Holding Corporation will earn the earnout shares for the previous year as if the prior year’s target had been met.

Joaquin Fernandez and Alberto Velilla Becerra are directors of Energy Holding Corporation. Jose Daes and Christian Daes are shareholders of Energy Holding Corporation.

Registration Rights

Our initial shareholders, Energy Holding Corporation, holders of the private warrants and warrants issued upon conversion of the promissory note (described above) (and all underlying securities), are entitled to registration rights pursuant to an agreement entered into on December 20, 2013. The holders of a majority of these securities are entitled to make up to two demands that we register such securities, and have certain “piggy-back” registration rights with respect to registration statements filed subsequent to our consummation of the merger. Pursuant to the agreement, we will bear the expenses incurred in connection with the filing of any such registration statements. All such securities were included on our Registration Statement on Form S-3 filed on February 11, 2014, which has not yet been declared effective.

Transfer Agreements in connection with Merger

On December 19, 2013, we entered into an agreement with an affiliate of A. Lorne Weil, our non-executive chairman of the board, and a third party shareholder pursuant to which the third party shareholder agreed to use commercially reasonable efforts to purchase up to 1,000,000 ordinary shares in the open market and agreed that it would not seek conversion or redemption of any such purchased shares in connection with the Merger. This third party shareholder and its affiliates purchased an aggregate of 985,896 ordinary shares pursuant to this agreement. Pursuant to the agreement, Mr. Weil’s affiliate transferred to the third party shareholder and its affiliates an aggregate of 2,167,867 private warrants. Additionally, EarlyBirdCapital, Inc., our financial advisor, transferred to the third party shareholder and its affiliates certain unit purchase options, each to purchase one ordinary share and one warrant to purchase one ordinary share. We agreed to file a registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission covering the resale of the warrants and shares underlying the warrants, as well as the unit purchase options and underlying securities, transferred to the shareholder and its affiliates, which such registration statement was filed on February 11, 2014. In the event the registration statement is not declared effective by June 1, 2014, we will be required to pay the shareholder and its affiliates a cash penalty of $0.20 per security transferred to them for each month until the registration statement has been declared effective.

Also on December 19, 2013, we entered into subscription agreements with two investors pursuant to which such investors agreed to purchase an aggregate of 649,382 ordinary shares at $10.18 per Share, or an aggregate of $6,610,709. In connection with this purchase, the affiliate of Mr. Weil transferred an aggregate of 608,796 private warrants to such investors. We agreed to file a registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission covering the resale of the warrants and shares underlying the warrants, transferred to these investors, which such registration statement was filed on February 11, 2014, and agreed to use our best efforts to have such registration statement declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission as soon as possible.

Indemnification Agreements

Effective March 5, 2014, we entered into indemnification agreements with each of our executive officers and members of our board of directors. The indemnification agreements supplement our Third Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association and Cayman Islands law in providing certain indemnification rights to these individuals. The indemnification agreements provide, among other things, that we will indemnify these individuals to the fullest extent permitted by Cayman Islands law and to any greater extent that Cayman Islands law may in the future permit, including the advancement of attorneys' fees and other expenses incurred by such individuals in connection with any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or other proceeding, whether of a civil, criminal, administrative, regulatory, legislative or investigative nature, relating to any occurrence or event before or after the date of the indemnification agreements, by reason of the fact that such individuals is or were our directors or executive officers, subject to certain exclusions and procedures set forth in the indemnification agreements, including the absence of fraud or willful default on the part of the indemnitee and, with respect to any criminal proceeding, that the indemnitee had no reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful.

Private Placement with Affiliate of A. Lorne Weil

On March 5, 2014, we entered into a subscription agreement with an affiliate of A. Lorne Weil, our Non-Executive Chairman of the Board, pursuant to which such affiliate agreed to purchase an aggregate of 95,693 ordinary shares at an aggregate price of $1,000,000, or approximately $10.45 per share, representing a slight premium to the closing price of our ordinary shares immediately prior to the execution of the subscription agreement. The closing of the purchase took place on March 14, 2014. We have agreed to file a registration statement covering the resale of these shares by July 14, 2014.

Related Person Policy

Our Code of Ethics requires us to avoid, wherever possible, all related party transactions that could result in actual or potential conflicts of interests, except under guidelines approved by the board of directors (or the audit committee). Related-party transactions are defined as transactions in which (1) the aggregate amount involved will or may be expected to exceed $120,000 in any calendar year, (2) we or any of our subsidiaries are a participant, and (3) any (a) executive officer, director or nominee for election as a director, (b) greater than 5% beneficial owner of our ordinary shares, or (c) immediate family member, of the persons referred to in clauses (a) and (b), has or will have a direct or indirect material interest (other than solely as a result of being a director or a less than 10% beneficial owner of another entity). A conflict of interest situation can arise when a person takes actions or has interests that may make it difficult to perform his or her work objectively and effectively. Conflicts of interest may also arise if a person, or a member of his or her family, receives improper personal benefits as a result of his or her position.

Our audit committee, pursuant to its written charter, is responsible for reviewing and approving related-party transactions to the extent we enter into such transactions. The audit committee will consider all relevant factors when determining whether to approve a related party transaction, including whether the related party transaction is on terms no less favorable than terms generally available to an unaffiliated third-party under the same or similar circumstances and the extent of the related party’s interest in the transaction. No director may participate in the approval of any transaction in which he is a related party, but that director is required to provide the audit committee with all material information concerning the transaction. Additionally, we require each of our directors and executive officers to complete an annual directors’ and officers’ questionnaire that elicits information about related party transactions.

These procedures are intended to determine whether any such related party transaction impairs the independence of a director or presents a conflict of interest on the part of a director, employee or officer.

Director Independence

We adhere to the NASDAQ listing standards in determining whether a director is independent. Our board of directors consults with its counsel to ensure that the board’s determinations are consistent with those rules and all relevant securities and other laws and regulations regarding the independence of directors.

The NASDAQ listing standards define an “independent director” as a person, other than an executive officer of a company or any other individual having a relationship which, in the opinion of the issuer’s board of directors, would interfere with the exercise of independent judgment in carrying out the responsibilities of a director. Consistent with these considerations, we have affirmatively determined that Messrs. Weil, Azout, Vilariño, Torres and Ms. Byorum qualify as independent directors. Our independent directors have regularly scheduled meetings at which only independent directors are present.

Item 14.

Principal Accounting Fees and Services.

The firm of Marcum LLP acts as our independent registered public accounting firm. Prior to the Merger, Crowe Horwath CO S.A. acted as the independent registered public accounting firm of Tecnoglass and ES. During 2013, the Company paid $137,000 to Crowe Horwath CO S.A for audit and audit related fees.

Audit Committee Approval

Our audit committee pre-approved all the services performed by Marcum LLP. In accordance with Section 10A(i) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, before we engage our independent accountant to render audit or non-audit services on a going-forward basis, the engagement will be approved by our audit committee.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Audit Committee of the

Board of Directors and Shareholders

of Tecnoglass, Inc. and Subsidiaries

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of Tecnoglass, Inc. and Subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2013, and the related consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income, shareholders’ equity and cash flows for the year then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit.

We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audit included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of Tecnoglass, Inc. and Subsidiaries, as of December 31, 2013, and the consolidated results of its operations and its cash flows for the year then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

We conducted our audit of the consolidated balance sheet and statement of operation for 2012 in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement. Our audit consisted of a review of the company’s consolidation of the financial statements of C.I. Energia Solar S.A. ESWindows and Tecnoglass S.A., for which we have issued our reports dated November 6, 2013.

Our audit also included obtaining management representations regarding material subsequent events and representations from the successor audit firm about whether, as a result of their audit, they are aware of items that would have a material effect in the financial statements previously audited by us. We believe that our audit provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the consolidated balance sheet and statement of operations referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of C.I. Energia Solar S.A.

Note 1. Organization and Business Operations

Tecnoglass Inc. was incorporated in the Cayman Islands on September 21, 2011 under the name “Andina Acquisition Corporation” (“Andina”) as a blank check company. Andina’s registration statement for its initial public offering (the “Public Offering”) was declared effective on March 16, 2012. Andina consummated the Public Offering, the private placement of warrants and the sale of options to the Underwriters on March 22, 2012, receiving proceeds, net of transaction costs, of $43,163, of which $42,740 was placed in a trust account.

Andina’s objective was to acquire, through a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase recapitalization, reorganization or other similar business combination, one or more operating businesses. As discussed below, Andina entered into a merger transaction on December 20, 2013 between Tecno Corporation (“Tecnoglass Holding”) as parent of Tecnoglass S.A. (“TG”) and C.I. Energía Solar S.A. E.S. Windows (“ES”). The surviving entity was renamed to Tecnoglass Inc. (The “Company”).

The Company manufactures hi-specification, architectural glass and windows for the global residential and commercial construction industries. Currently the Company offers design, production, marketing, and installation of architectural systems for buildings of high, medium and low elevation size. Products include windows and doors in glass and aluminum, office partitions and interior divisions, floating façades and commercial window showcases. The Company sells to more than 800 customers in North, Central and South America, and exports almost half of its production to foreign countries.

To fund its working capital requirements, the Company expects that the cash flow of the acquired companies will provide sufficient liquidity to meet its current operating requirements. The Company believes that the investments made by the operating companies TG and ES in their technology, infrastructure, and sales staff will generate cash flows sufficient to cover its working capital needs and other ongoing needs for capital. The Company’s cash requirements include funding sales and production, paying interest expense and other operating expenses, including taxes, and investing in its technology infrastructure.

Note 2. Reverse Merger

The Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Reorganization (the “Merger Agreement”) as of August 17, 2013. Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, on the closing date of December 20, 2013 (the “Closing”), the former Tecnoglass Holding shareholders, through an intermediary entity, received, as consideration for all ordinary shares of Tecnoglass Holding they held: (i) an aggregate of 20,567,141 ordinary shares of the Company, par value $0.0001 per share (“Ordinary Shares”) at the Closing; and (ii) up to an aggregate of 3,000,000 additional Ordinary Shares (“Earnout Shares”) of the Company to be released after the Closing as described below.

At the Closing, the Company had 3,647,529 ordinary shares outstanding with a net tangible book value of ($3,526). The net tangible book value consisted of a stock subscription receivable aggregating $6,610, amount due from the transfer agent of $15,909, liabilities of $139 and a warrant liability of $25,906. The balance due from the transfer agent is net of $22.9 million paid, from the proceeds of $42.7 million held in the trust account, to the holders of 2,251,853 public shares electing not to participate in the business combination. In addition, transaction expenses of approximately $3.9 million were also paid. The balance of $15.9 is available for working capital and is classified on the accompanying balance sheet as Due From Transfer Agent. The funds were received from the Transfer Agent in January 2014.

Tecnoglass, Inc. and Subsidiaries

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

(amounts in thousands, except share and per share data)

Prior to the business combination the Company entered into subscription agreements with two investors pursuant to which such investors purchased 649,382 ordinary shares of for an aggregate price of $6,610. As of December 31, 2013 such amount has been classified as a subscription receivable. The proceeds were received in January 2014.

The Merger Agreement was accounted for as a reverse merger and recapitalization where Tecnoglass Holding was the acquirer and TGI was the acquired company. Accordingly, the historical financial statements presented are the consolidated financial statements of Tecnoglass Holding. The ordinary shares and the corresponding capital amounts of the Company pre-merger have been retroactively restated as ordinary shares reflecting the exchange ratio in the merger.

The Earnout Shares have been issued and placed in escrow to be released to the former shareholders of Tecnoglass Holding’s upon the achievement of specified share price targets or targets based on Tecnoglass Holding’s net earnings before interest income or expense, income taxes, depreciation, amortization and any expenses arising solely from the Merger charged to income (“EBITDA”) in the fiscal years ending December 31, 2014, 2015 or 2016. The following table sets forth the targets and the number of Earnout Shares issuable to the former shareholders of Tecnoglass Holding’s upon the achievement of such targets:

	Ordinary Share
	Price Target		EBITDA Target				Number of Earnout Shares
			Minimum		Maximum		Minimum		Maximum
Fiscal year ending 12/31/14		$12.00 per share	$	30,000	$	36,000		416,667		500,000
Fiscal year ending 12/31/15		$13.00 per share	$	35,000	$	40,000		875,000		1,000,000
Fiscal year ending 12/31/16		$15.00 per share	$	40,000	$	45,000		1,333,333		1,500,000

If either the ordinary share target or the maximum EBITDA target is met in any fiscal year, the former shareholders of Tecnoglass Holding’s receive the maximum number of Earnout Shares indicated for the year.

In the event the ordinary share target is not met but the combined company’s EBITDA falls within the minimum and maximum EBITDA target for a specified year, the number of Earnout Shares to be issued will be interpolated between such targets.

In the event neither the ordinary share target nor the minimum EBITDA target is met in a particular year, but a subsequent year’s share price or EBITDA target is met, the former shareholders of Tecnoglass Holding’s will earn the Earnout Shares for the previous year as if the prior year’s target had been met.

The Company and the former shareholders of Tecnoglass Holdings have agreed to indemnify and hold harmless the other for their inaccuracies or breaches of the representations and warranties or for the non-fulfillment or breach of any covenant or agreement contained in the Merger Agreement and for certain other matters. To provide a fund for payment to the Company with respect to its post-closing rights to indemnification under the Merger Agreement, an aggregate of 890,000 of the Ordinary Shares issuable to the Tecnoglass Holding shareholders were placed in escrow with an independent escrow agent at closing. The escrow fund will be the sole remedy for the Company for its rights to indemnification under the Merger Agreement. On the date that is the earlier of (i) 30 days after the date on which the Company has filed its Annual Report on Form 10-K for its 2014 fiscal year or (ii) June 30, 2015, the shares remaining in such escrow fund will be released to the former shareholders of Tecnoglass Holding’s except for any shares subject to pending claims and certain other matters.

Note 3. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Foreign Currency Translation

The consolidated financial statements are presented in United States Dollars, the reporting currency. The functional currency of the Company’s operations in Colombia is the Colombian Peso (COP). The financial statements of the Company’s foreign operations are prepared in the functional currency. In accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) ASC 830-30 Translation of Financial Statements, the Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income prepared in the functional currency are translated using average exchange rates for the respective periods. Assets and liabilities on the Balance Sheets are translated into the reporting currency using rates of exchange at the end of the period and the related translation adjustments are recorded as a separate component of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income. Transaction and remeasurement gains or losses resulting from foreign currency transactions are recorded in the consolidated statement of operations.

Basis of Presentation and Use of Estimates

The accompanying 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 United States Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). The preparation of these 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 or conditions. Based on information known before these financial statements were available to be issued, there are no estimates included in these statements for which it is reasonably possible that the estimate will change in the near term up to one year from the date of these financial statements and the effect of the change will be material. Estimates included in these financial statements relate to the collectability of account receivable, the valuation of inventories, estimated earnings on uncompleted contracts, useful lives and potential impairment of long-lived assets and valuation of derivative financial instruments.

The accompanying financial statements present the consolidated results of Tecnoglass Inc. (“TGI”) and its wholly-owned subsidiaries Tecnoglass S. A. (“TG”) and Energía Solar ES Windows S.A (“ES”).

Revenue Recognition

The Company generates revenue from manufactured product sales. The Company manufactures both glass and aluminum products. Its glass products include tempered glass, laminated glass, thermo-acoustic glass, curved glass, silk-screened glass, acoustic glass and digital print glass. Aluminum profiles offered by the Company include mill finish, anodized, painted profiles, rods, tubes, bars and plates. The Company also generates revenues from sales and installations of windows and façades. 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. The Company produces façade products which include: floating facades, automatic doors bathroom dividers and commercial display windows.

Revenue is recognized when (i) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, (ii) delivery has occurred, (iii) the fees are fixed and determinable, and (iv) collectability of the sale is reasonably assured. All revenue is recognized net of discounts, returns and allowances.

Revenues recognized in advance of amounts billable pursuant to contracts terms are recorded as unbilled receivables on uncompleted contracts in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet based on work performed and costs to date. Unbilled receivables on uncompleted contracts are billable upon various events, including the attainment of performance milestones, delivery of product and/or services, or completion of the contract.

Payments received from customers in advance of delivery are recorded as advances from customers at the time payment is received.

Product Sales

The Company requires that all of its product sales to be supported by evidence of a sale transaction that clearly indicates the selling price to the customer, shipping terms and payment terms. Evidence of an arrangement consists of a contract or purchase order approved by the customer.

The Company recognizes revenue when goods are shipped, which is “FOB shipping point.” Delivery to the customer is deemed to have occurred when the customer takes title to the product. Generally, title passes to the customer upon shipment, but could occur when the customer receives the product based on the terms of the agreement with the customer.

The selling prices of all goods that the Company sells are fixed, and agreed to with the customer, prior to shipment. Selling prices are generally based on established list prices. The Company does not customarily permit its customers to return any of its products for monetary refunds or credit against completed or future sales.

Contract Sales

Revenues from fixed price contracts are recognized using the percentage-of-completion method, measured by the percentage of costs incurred to date to total estimated costs for each contract. Such contracts provide that the customer accept completion of progress to date and compensate the Company for services rendered, which may be measured in terms of units installed, hours expended or some other measure of progress. Revisions to cost estimates as contracts progress have the effect of increasing or decreasing expected profits each period. Provisions for anticipated losses are recorded in the period in which they become determinable. No provisions have been recorded for losses on uncompleted contracts for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012.

Standard Form Sales

The Company recognizes revenue for standard form sales once the installation is complete. Standard form sales are customer sales comprising low value installations that are of short duration.

A standard form agreement is executed between the Company and its customer. Services are performed by the Company during the installation process. The price quote is determined by the Company, based on the requested installation, and approved by the customer before the Company proceeds with the installation. The customer’s credit worthiness and payment capacity is evaluated before the Company will proceed with the initial order process.

Shipping and Handling Costs

The Company classifies amounts billed to customers related to shipping and handling in sale transactions as product revenues. Shipping and handling costs incurred are recorded in cost of product revenues. For the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, the Company recorded revenue related to shipping and handling costs of $ 7.0 million and $5.9 million, respectively.

Sales Tax and Value Added Taxes

The Company accounts for sales taxes and value added taxes imposed on its goods and services on a net basis – value added taxes paid for goods and services purchased is netted against value added tax collected from customers and the net amount is paid to the government. The current value added tax rate in Colombia for all of the Company’s products is 16%. A municipal industry and commerce tax (ICA) sales tax of 0.7% is payable on all of the Company’s products sold in the Colombian market.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

All liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less when purchased are considered to be cash equivalents. Cash equivalents are stated at cost, which approximates market value. At December 31, 2013 the Company had no cash equivalents.

Concentration of Credit Risk

Financial instruments which potentially subject the Company to credit risk consist primarily of cash and trade accounts receivable. The Company mitigates its cash risk by maintaining its cash deposits with major financial institutions in Colombia and the Cayman Islands. At times the balances held at financial institutions in Colombia may exceed the Colombia government insured limits of the Ministerio de Hacienda y Credito Publico. The Company has not experienced such losses in such accounts. As discussed below, the Company mitigates its risk to trade accounts receivable by performing on-going credit evaluations of its customers.

Tecnoglass, Inc. and Subsidiaries

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

(amounts in thousands, except share and per share data)

Trade Accounts Receivable

Trade accounts receivable are recorded net of allowances for cash discounts for prompt payment, doubtful accounts, and sales returns. Estimates for cash discounts and sales returns are based on contractual terms, historical trends and expectations regarding the utilization rates for these programs.

The Company’s policy is to reserve for uncollectible accounts based on its best estimate of the amount of probable credit losses in its existing accounts receivable. The Company periodically reviews its accounts receivable to determine whether an allowance for doubtful accounts is necessary based on an analysis of past due accounts and other factors that may indicate that the collectability of an account may be in doubt. Other factors that the Company considers include its existing contractual obligations, historical payment patterns of its customers and individual customer circumstances, and a review of the local economic environment and its potential impact on the collectability of accounts receivable. Account balances deemed to be uncollectible are charged to the allowance for doubtful accounts after all means of collection have been exhausted and the potential for recovery is considered remote.

Inventories

Inventories, which consist primarily of purchased and processed glass, aluminum, parts and supplies held for use in the ordinary course of business, are valued at the lower of cost or market. Cost is determined using a weighted-average method. Inventory consisting of certain job specific materials not yet installed are valued using the specific identification method.

Reserves for excess or slow-moving inventories are updated based on historical experience of a variety of factors including sales volume and levels of inventories at the end of the period. The Company’s reserve for excess or slow-moving inventories at December 31, 2013 and 2012 amounted to approximately $1,438 and $0, respectively.

Property, Plant and Equipment

Property, plant and equipment are recorded at cost. Significant improvements and renewals that extend the useful life of the asset are capitalized. Repairs and maintenance are charged to expense as incurred. When property is retired or otherwise disposed of, the cost and related accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any related gains or losses are included in income as a reduction to or increase in selling, general and administrative expenses. Depreciation is computed on a straight-line basis, based on the following estimated useful lives:

Machinery and equipment	10 years
Furniture and fixtures	10 years
Office equipment and software	5 years
Vehicles	5 years

Long Lived Assets

The Company periodically reviews the carrying values of its long lived assets when events or changes in circumstances would indicate that it is more likely than not that their carrying values may exceed their realizable values, and record impairment charges when considered necessary.

When circumstances indicate that impairment may have occurred, the Company tests such assets for recoverability by comparing the estimated undiscounted future cash flows expected to result from the use of such assets and their eventual disposition to their carrying amounts. If the undiscounted future cash flows are less than the carrying amount of the asset, an impairment loss, measured as the excess of the carrying value of the asset over its estimated fair value, is recognized. Fair value is determined through various valuation techniques, including discounted cash flow models, quoted market values and third-party independent appraisals, as considered necessary.

Common Stock Purchase Warrants

The Company classifies as equity any warrants contracts that (i) require physical settlement or net-share settlement or (ii) gives the Company a choice of net-cash settlement or settlement in its own shares (physical settlement or net-share settlement). The Company classifies as assets or liabilities any contracts that (i) require net-cash settlement (including a requirement to net cash settle the contract if an event occurs and if that event is outside the Company’s control) or (ii) gives the counterparty a choice of net-cash settlement or settlement in shares (physical settlement or net-share settlement).

The Company assesses classification of its common stock purchase warrants and other freestanding derivatives, if any, at each reporting date to determine whether a change in classification between assets and liabilities is required.

Warrant liability

The Company accounts for the 4,200,000 warrants issued in connection with the Public Offering, 4,800,000 warrants issued in connection with the Private Placement, and 200,000 working capital warrants issued upon conversion of a promissory note at the closing of the Merger. In accordance with the guidance contained in ASC 815-40-15-7D whereby under that provision the warrants do not meet the criteria for equity treatment and are recorded as a liability. Accordingly, the Company classifies the warrant instrument as a liability at its fair value and adjusts the instrument to fair value at each reporting period. This liability is subject to re-measurement at each balance sheet date until exercised or expired, and any change in fair value is recognized in the Company’s consolidated statement of operations.

The fair value of the warrant liability was determined by the Company using the Binomial Lattice pricing model. This model is dependent upon several variables such as the instrument’s expected term, expected strike price, expected risk-free interest rate over the expected instrument term, the expected dividend yield rate over the expected instrument term and the expected volatility of the Company’s stock price over the expected term. The expected term represents the period of time that the instruments granted are expected to be outstanding. The expected strike price is based upon a weighted average probability analysis of the strike price changes expected during the term as a result of the down round protection. The risk-free rates are based on U.S. Treasury securities with similar maturities as the expected terms of the options at the date of valuation. Expected dividend yield is based on historical trends. The Company measures volatility using a blended weighted average of the volatility rates for a number of similar publicly-traded companies

The inputs to the model were as follows:

	December 31, 2013			December 20, 2013

Stock Price	$	8.55		$	10.18
Dividend Yield		N/A			N/A
Risk-free rate		0.78	%		0.70	%
Expected Term		2.97			3.00
Expected Volatility		44.69			44.71

The table below provides a reconciliation of the beginning and ending balances for the warrant liability measured using significant unobservable inputs (Level 3):

Balance - December 20, 2013	$	25,906
Fair value adjustment		(7,626	)
Balance - December 31, 2013	$	18,280

Stock-Based Compensation

The Company accounts for share-based awards exchanged for employee services at the estimated grant date fair value of the award. At December 31, 2013 and 2012, no share-based awards had been granted to employees.

Derivative Financial Instruments

The Company records all derivatives on the balance sheet at fair value, regardless of the purpose or intent for holding them. The Company has not designated its derivatives as hedging instruments, therefore, the Company does not designate them as fair value or cash flow hedging instruments. The accounting for changes in fair value of the derivatives is recorded within earnings.

Advertising Costs

Advertising costs are expensed as they are incurred and are included in general and administrative expenses. Advertising costs for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012 amounted to approximately $383 and $255, respectively.

Income Taxes

The Company’s operations in Colombia are subject to the taxing jurisdiction of the Republic of Colombia. TGI and Tecnoglass Holding are subject to the taxing jurisdiction of the Cayman Islands. All periods prior to 2012 are no longer subject to examination by taxing authorities in Colombia.

The Company accounts for income taxes under the asset and liability model (ASC 740 “Income Taxes”) and recognizes deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected impact of differences between the financial statements and tax bases of assets and liabilities and for the expected future tax benefit to be derived from tax loss and tax credit carry forwards. A valuation allowance is established when management determines that it is more likely than not that all or a portion of deferred tax assets will not be realized.

Tecnoglass, Inc. and Subsidiaries

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

(amounts in thousands, except share and per share data)

ASC 740 also clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an enterprise’s financial statements and prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement process for financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. The Company believes that its income tax positions and deductions would be sustained on audit and does not anticipate any adjustments that would result in a material changes to its financial position. Based on the Company’s evaluation, it has been concluded that there are no significant uncertain tax positions requiring recognition in the Company’s consolidated financial statements. The Company records interest and penalties, if any, as a component of income tax expense.

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, excluding the effects of any potentially dilutive securities. Income per share assuming dilution would give effect to dilutive options, warrants, and other potential ordinary shares outstanding during the period. The calculation of the weighted-average number of ordinary shares includes 20,567,141 recapitalized shares, assumed to be outstanding as of the beginning of each period, and 3,647,529 ordinary shares of Andina Acquisition outstanding at the time of the merger. The computation of basic and diluted income per share for the year ended December 31, 2013 excludes the effect of Unit Purchase Options to purchase 900,000 units (consisting of one warrant and one ordinary share) because their inclusion would be anti-dilutive.

The Company considered the effect of warrants to purchase 9,200,000 ordinary shares in the calculation of diluted income per share, which resulted in 37,208 shares of dilutive securities for the year ended December 31, 2013. This effect had no impact on diluted income per share.

Comprehensive Income (Loss)

Other comprehensive income (loss) includes all changes in stockholders’ equity during a period from non-owner sources and is reported in the consolidated statement of stockholders’ equity. To date, other comprehensive income (loss) consists of changes in accumulated foreign currency translation adjustments during the years.

Loss Contingencies

The Company recognizes contingent losses that are both probable and estimable. In this context, the Company defines probability as circumstances under which events are likely to occur. In regards to legal costs, the Company records such costs as incurred.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In July 2012, the FASB issued ASU No. 2012-02, “Intangibles-Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Testing Indefinite-Lived Intangible Assets for Impairment” (ASU 2012-02), allowing entities the option to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether it is necessary to perform the quantitative impairment test. If the qualitative assessment indicates it is more-likely-than-not that the fair value of an indefinite-lived intangible asset is less than its carrying amount, the quantitative impairment test is required. Otherwise, no testing is required. ASU 2012-02 is effective for the Company in the period beginning January 1, 2013. The adoption of this update did not have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements but may have an impact in future periods.

In February 2013, the FASB issued ASU 2013-02, “Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Reporting of Amounts Reclassified Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income” (“ASU 2013-02”). ASU 2013-02 is intended to improve the reporting of reclassifications out of accumulated other comprehensive income. Accordingly, an entity is required to report the effect of significant reclassifications out of accumulated other comprehensive income on the respective line items in net income if the amount being reclassified is required under GAAP to be reclassified in its entirety to net income. For other amounts that are not required under GAAP to be reclassified in their entirety to net income in the same reporting period, an entity is required to cross-reference other disclosures required under GAAP that provide additional detail about those amounts. The amendments in this ASU supersede the presentation requirements for reclassifications out of accumulated other comprehensive income in ASU 2013-05 and ASU 2013-12. ASU 2013-02 is effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2012. The Company adopted ASU 2013-02 effective January 1, 2013 and the adoption did not have an impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements but may have an impact in future periods.

Note 4. Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The carrying amounts of cash, accounts receivable, prepaid expenses, accounts payable and accrued expenses, approximate their fair values due to their short-term nature, as they are receivable or payable upon demand. Amounts shown for debt approximate fair value as applicable interest rates are at current market rates.

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.

Legal Matters

TG and Tecnoglass USA, Inc., a related party, are named in a civil action for wrongful death, negligence and negligent infliction of emotional distress arising out of a workplace accident where a crate of glass fell and fatally crushed a worker during the unloading process. TG denies liability and intends to rigorously defend the claim in court. TG’s insurance carrier is providing coverage to TG under a $3,000 wasting policy, which means that the attorneys’ fees and expenses incurred during the defense of the claim reduce the amount of coverage available. TG’s U.S. counsel believe that the claimants’ initial request of $6,000 in negotiations is without merit or substance. Based on pre-trial settlement negotiations, TG’s U.S. counsel believe that the claimants will settle for substantially less than the $3,000 policy coverage, and uninsured losses in excess of the policy are unlikely. The case is scheduled for the trial calendar in Miami-Dade County beginning September 15, 2014. TG’s counsel believes that an uninsured loss to the Company above the coverage limits is unlikely and immaterial.

TG is also a named defendant in in the matter of Diplomat Properties, Limited Partnership as assignee of Shower Concepts, Inc. v. Tecnoglass Colombia, S.A. in the 17^th Judicial Circuit in and for Broward County, Florida. Plaintiff Diplomat Properties, Limited (“Diplomat”) has asserted a claim for indemnification against TG and Tecnoglass USA, Inc.. The claim arises from the supplying of glass shower doors to a hotel/spa in Broward County, Florida. Specifically, in 2006, Diplomat commenced arbitration against Shower Concepts, Inc. seeking damages for breach of contract due to fractures in the installed glass shower doors. Diplomat initiated a complaint asserting various claims which were dismissed with prejudice. The only remaining claim against the Tecnoglass entities is common law indemnification. TG denies liability and asserts that Shower Concepts was at fault and that as a joint tort feasor, it cannot sue for indemnity. A trial date has not yet been set for this case. TG’s counsel believes that a liability in this claim is unlikely and immaterial.

Note 16. Fair Value Measurements

ASC 820-10, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures” (“ASC 820-10”), defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in U.S. GAAP and provides for expanded disclosure about fair value measurements. ASC 820-10 applies to all other accounting pronouncements that require or permit fair value measurements.

The Company determines or calculates the fair value of financial instruments using quoted market prices in active markets when such information is available or using appropriate present value or other valuation techniques, such as discounted cash flow analyses, incorporating available market discount rate information for similar types of instruments while estimating for non-performance and liquidity risk. These techniques are significantly affected by the assumptions used, including the discount rate, credit spreads, and estimates of future cash flow.

ASC 820-10 requires that assets and liabilities recorded at fair value be classified and disclosed in one of the following three categories:

	•	Level 1 inputs utilize quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company has the ability to access.
	•	Level 2 inputs utilize other-than-quoted prices that are observable, either directly or indirectly. Level 2 inputs include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, and inputs such as interest rates and yield curves that are observable at commonly quoted intervals.
	•	Level 3 inputs are unobservable and are typically based on the Company’s own assumptions, including situations where there is little, if any, market activity. Both observable and unobservable inputs may be used to determine the fair value of positions that are classified within the Level 3 classification. As a result, the unrealized gains and losses for assets within the Level 3 classification may include changes in fair value that were attributable to both observable (e.g., changes in market interest rates) and unobservable (e.g., changes in historical company data) inputs.

In certain cases, the inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, the Company classifies such financial asset or liability based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. The Company’s assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment and considers factors specific to the asset or liability.

Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis (at December 31, 2013)

	Quotes Prices in Active Markets (Level 1)		Significant Other Observable Inputs (Level 2)		Significant Unobservable Inputs (Level 3)
Due from Continental Stock and Trust		15,908		-		-

Warrant Liability		-		-		18,280
