In the first quarter, the Coloring segment performed well at 16% growth, net sales versus prior year, especially strong Mexico, Brazil, and South Africa.

Our balance sheet is purposefully strong because we believe that a sound financial situation is key in the current volatile environment. I'm convinced we can reach 10% market share by the end of 2023. Our next major milestone within reach is attaining a 15th share of this important pillar of horizon. We've reframed our historical approach by category, to include incremental, fast-growing adjacencies and made some active moves there in bringing in Rocketbook and Inkbox, as we build out new division. We have a good back-to-school in front of us in all of the geographies, Europe, North America, Mexico, those are the big ones for third quarter, which will finish shipping in Q2.

A perfect illustration of our open innovation strategy is the announcement and development of a new recycled material in partnership with Avient. This was mainly due to the increase in the U.S. dollar and the Brazilian real against the euro. Part of this strong performance was due to the delayed shipments of orders in the fourth quarters -- fourth quarter of 2021 effected by supply chain issues. Adjusted earnings per share were 4.29 up 21% versus last year. Gonzalve will explain in more detail how we expect to mitigate these impacts. Good morning, Nicolas.

Perfect. Net sales were 168.3. Moreover, we continue to grow and gain two points of market share and coloring a key strategic segment for us. However, as already mentioned, supply chain issues impacted our operations, leading to a weak full year performance in the U.S. despite a rebound in the fourth quarter. Thank you, Gonzalve. In Latin America our trade-up strategy continued to pay off as we outperformed the markets in both Brazil and Mexico. Let's now look forward to 2022.

However, in shave, online sales grew more than 50%, notably driven by North America. Bruno's net worth hovers over $100,000 - $249,999 with a yearly income that's about $100 - 149,999.

Presently, Gonzalve Marie Leon Bich is Chief Executive Officer & Executive Director at Socit BIC SA and Chairman of BIC International Development SAS, Chief Executive Officer of BIC USA, Inc. and President, Chief Operating Officer & Director at BIC International Co. (which are all subsidiaries of Socit BIC SA). So you mentioned a lot of ups and downs in the gross profit and EBIT margin cadence. In addition Gonzalve talked about the myriad of price increases in Stationery Lighter and Shaver that also is going to offset. We all know that in mass manufacturing business like BIC, that translates into mid and long term sustainable savings, which can either be reinvested into the business or dropped to the bottom line. The second half will be on the low end of our net sales range. And finally, in Latin America, mid to high single-digit price increases will be implemented in the first quarter across all divisions. Just one -- first question is how do you anticipate the phasing of your turnover in 2022 particularly given the high basis comps during the first half? This was partially offset by higher raw materials and air and sea freight import costs, as well as an increase in brand support, notably driven by BIC EZ Reach advertising campaign in the U.S. Lastly, and Blade Excellence, net sales were 113.5 million up 12.5% at constant currencies, and Adjusted EBIT was 25.4 million with a 22.4% margin.

Moreover, Mexico, South Africa, and India, which were hit hard by the pandemic are now bouncing back. This ends the review of our 2021 consolidated results. And then unallocated costs for 2022, I guess the way that I would think about this is on a total year basis, it shouldn't be materially different. If we turn back the clock a little, it's important for us to remember that the first quarter of '22 performance was extremely strong. Another question is about your margin. Our Flame For Life results were a major achievement this quarter, despite a strong unfavorable comparable base. The company also provides pocket, utility, decorated, non-decorated classic, electronic, and multipurpose lighters. In addition to the ordinary dividend, we launched a 40 million share buyback program -- as in 2021 an ESG component will allow us to allocate funds to the Abdul Latif Jameel Poverty Action Lab and the BIC Corporate Foundation for Education.

This next slide shows the impact of input cost inflation on gross profit in 2021 and 2022 in millions of Euros. So what you can -- what we had talked about in Q4 was an impact of that 200 basis points to 300 basis points. Today, EZ reach is almost at 6% market share. Very clear. You ended the year with 400 million of net cash and you did not distribute any extraordinary dividend. Hi, Nicolas. Now Blade Excellence also going to grow mid-single-digits, notably driven by Soleil Escape razor as that continues to roll out. As we make progress in our Horizon transformation journey, 26% of Human Expression net sales came from creative and digital expression segments. I've about four questions, please. When I reflect on the past 18 months, I see clearly the resilience and drive of our teams in re-imagining our future. Socit BIC SA manufactures and sells stationery, lighter, shaver, and other products in Europe, North and Latin America, the Middle East and Africa, the Oceania, and Asia. Finally, leveraging what we've learned and achieved in our Invent the Future plan, we expect to generate an additional 15 million of annualized savings from further procurement initiatives and manufacturing efficiencies. [Operator Instructions]. [Operator Instructions]. This innovative program accelerates our path towards genuine long-term value creation for all of our stakeholders, which I'm extremely proud of. It was really one of the things that stood out when we launched Horizon a little bit over a year ago as a new and exciting growth lever. Do I think that they're an inventory dislocation? So as we move from gross profit to EBIT -- one of the things that Gonzalve talked about is our continued brand support so we can get that net sales growth in 2022. We will continue to focus on operating cash flow with cautious inventory management to protect our supply and delivery.
