Vidrio Andino Joint Venture

 

On May 3, 2019, we consummated a joint venture agreement with Saint-Gobain, a world leader in the production of float glass, a key component of our manufacturing process, whereby we acquired a 25.8% minority ownership interest in Vidrio Andino, a Colombia-based subsidiary of Saint-Gobain. The purchase price for our interest in Vidrio Andino was $45 million, of which $34.1 million was paid in cash and $10.9 million paid through the contribution of land on December 9, 2020. On October 28, 2020, we acquired said land from a related party and paid for it with the issuance of an aggregate of 1,557,142 ordinary shares of the Company, valued at $7.00 per share, which represented an approximate 33% premium based on the closing stock price as of October 27, 2020.

 

The land will serve the purpose of developing a second float glass plant nearby our existing manufacturing facilities which we expect will carry significant efficiencies for us once it becomes operative, in which we will also have a 25.8% interest. The new plant will be funded with proceeds from the original cash contribution made by the Company, operating cashflows from the Bogota plant, debt incurred at the joint venture level that will not consolidate into the Company and an additional contribution by us of approximately $12.5 million if needed (based on debt availability as a first option).

 

 

In the ordinary course of business, we purchased $9,352 and $17,393, of materials from Vidrio Andino during the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, respectively, compared to $10,633, and $19,678, during the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, respectively. We also had outstanding payables to Vidrio Andino of $5,131 and $5,717 as of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively. We recorded equity method loss of $159, and income of $3, on our Consolidated Statement of Operations during the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, respectively, compared to $941 and $2,258, recorded during the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, respectively.
