# Tecnoglass cuts FY 2026 Adj. EBITDA guidance to $225M-$245M due to new 10% aluminum tariff

## Summary
- Q1 performance in line with expectations; record backlog supports double-digit revenue growth for full year 2026.
- FY 2026 Adj. EBITDA guidance revised to $225M-$245M, reflecting $50M net impact from new 10% U.S. tariff on finished aluminum windows.
- Pricing actions start early May; operational efficiencies (automation, logistics, headcount) expected to partially offset tariff in 2026, fully neutralize by 2027.
- All other guidance assumptions unchanged; prior guidance issued February 26, 2026.
