MESSAGE FROM THE CEO
In 2021, the health crisis continued and resulted in a deregulation of the global supply chain. This has led to historic increases in input and freight prices.
Also, several product shortages have been noted in almost all productive sectors.
True to its usual proactivity, COLORADO has set up an agile organization to anticipate and adapt to these changes around the functions of sourcing, research and development and production. This has enabled us to achieve an exceptional year in terms of activity and a record production.
Once again, the human resources capital of our company demonstrates its dedication, competence and value.

LETTER TO SHAREHOLDERS
Ladies and Gentlemen, Dear shareholders,
Despite the health crisis, the shortage of inputs and the high cost of raw materials and freight, COLORADO has been able to achieve a significant increase in its turnover of around 24%.
As the economic situation did not allow the increases in inputs to be passed on to the sales prices, the margin was nevertheless able to return to its pre-crisis value.
All of this has enabled the board of directors, who held a meeting in March 2022, to propose to the next general assembly, the distribution of the entire net income for 2021 as dividends.
