Not sure if Chip's will overcome the conditional formatting,
been awhile since I looked at it.

The code on my colors page does not take into account colors of
Conditional Formatting, only normal formats.

Peo recommends Chip Pearson's site to get this done, and of
course he is a pro.
Here is an armature shot at it that sums the values in the
orange, red and green cell. Will not work if the color is a
result of conditional formatting. Not sure if Chip's will
overcome the conditional formatting, been awhile since I looked
at it.

Where Data is a named range on the worksheet.

Sub SumColorCount()
Dim Orange46 As Integer, _
Red3 As Integer, _
Green4 As Integer
Dim Cell As Range

For Each Cell In Range("Data")
If Cell.Interior.ColorIndex = 46 Then
Orange46 = Orange46 + Cell.Value
ElseIf Cell.Interior.ColorIndex = 3 Then
Red3 = Red3 + Cell.Value
ElseIf Cell.Interior.ColorIndex = 4 Then
Green4 = Green4 + Cell.Value
End If
Next

Range("F10").Value = "Orange = " & Orange46
Range("F11").Value = "Red = " & Red3
Range("F12").Value = "Green = " & Green4

MsgBox " You have: " & vbCr _
& vbCr & " Orange " & Orange46 _
& vbCr & " Red " & Red3 _
& vbCr & " Green " & Green4, _
vbOKOnly, "CountColor"

Range("F10").Value = ""
Range("F11").Value = ""
Range("F12").Value = ""
End Sub
