New York, January 8, 2026, 11:53 EST — Regular session
- Tecnoglass shares rise sharply in mid-session trade after a volatile week start
- Peer Apogee lowered its fiscal 2026 forecast, flagging a tariff hit
- Focus turns to Tecnoglass’s dividend date and late-February results window
Tecnoglass (TGLS) shares rose nearly 8% on Thursday, lifting the stock back above $50 after a choppy start to the week. The stock was up about 7.9% at $51.75 in late morning trade.
The move comes as investors weigh fresh warnings from rival Apogee Enterprises, whose outlook reset jolted building-products names on Wednesday. Apogee said it now expects fiscal 2026 net sales of about $1.39 billion and adjusted earnings per share — profit per share excluding some items — of $3.40 to $3.50, and it built in an estimated $0.30 hit from tariffs. 1
That matters for Tecnoglass because its sales lean on architectural glass and windows tied to commercial and residential construction, where orders can slow fast when developers delay projects. The company makes products ranging from tempered safety and laminated glass to aluminum components used in window systems. 2
Apogee’s Executive Chair and CEO Donald Nolan pointed to a rough patch even as the company stuck to its plan. “Despite a challenging environment, we delivered results in line with expectations,” Nolan said in a statement. 3
Apogee shares also bounced on Thursday, up about 4.3%, after Wednesday’s selloff. Traders often watch that tape for signals on whether the sector shock is spreading or fading.
For Tecnoglass, the question is whether the pressure Apogee described — weaker volume, pricing stress and higher input costs — shows up in orders and margins as 2026 gets going. If that read-through sticks, it can reprice expectations quickly for smaller building-products stocks.
Tecnoglass has a dividend on deck, which can matter for sentiment even when the day-to-day move is about sector risk. The company previously declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.15 per share, payable on January 30 to shareholders of record as of December 31. 4
But the rebound is not a clean verdict. If construction demand softens further, or if tariffs and materials costs keep squeezing budgets, the stock can give back gains just as fast as it found them.
