GENTEX CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND
FINANCIAL CONDITION

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS:

SECOND QUARTER 2002 VERSUS SECOND QUARTER 2001
Net Sales. Net sales for the second quarter of 2002 increased by
approximately $20,272,000, or 26%, when compared with the second
quarter last year. Net sales of the Company's automotive mirrors
increased by $20,153,000, or 28%, as automatic-dimming mirror unit
shipments increased by 29% from approximately 1,753,000 in the second
quarter of 2001 to 2,265,000 in the current quarter. This increase
reflected the increased penetration of interior and exterior
electrochromic Night Vision Safety(TM) (NVS(R)) Mirrors on 2002
mid-sized and some early 2003 model year vehicles. Shipments to
customers in North America increased by 25%, primarily due to
increased penetration and higher North American automotive production
levels. Mirror unit shipments to automotive customers outside North
America increased by 35% compared with the second quarter in 2001,
primarily due to increased interior and exterior mirror sub-assembly
shipments to European and Asian-Pacific automakers. Net sales of the
Company's fire protection products increased 2%, primarily due to
higher sales of certain of the Company's signaling products.

Cost of Goods Sold. As a percentage of net sales, cost of goods sold
decreased from 61% in the second quarter of 2001 to 60% in the second
quarter of 2002. This decreased percentage primarily reflected the
higher sales level leveraged over the fixed overhead costs.

Operating Expenses. Research and development expenses increased
approximately $299,000, but decreased from 7% to 6% of net sales,
when compared with the same quarter last year, primarily reflecting
additional staffing for new product development, including mirrors
with additional electronic features. Selling, general and
administrative expenses increased approximately $464,000, but
decreased from 6% to 5% of net sales, when compared with the second
quarter of 2001. This increased expense primarily reflected the
continued expansion of the Company's overseas sales and engineering
offices, including the opening of an office in Korea.

Other Income - Net. Other income decreased by approximately $360,000
when compared with the second quarter of 2001, primarily due to
declining interest rates on investments.

SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2002, VERSUS SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2001
Net Sales. Net sales for the six months ended June 30, 2002,
increased by approximately $29,923,000, or 19%, when compared with
the same period last year. Automatic-dimming mirror unit shipments
increased by 20% from approximately 3,603,000 in the first six months
of 2001 to 4,321,000 in the first six months of 2002. This increase
reflected the increased penetration on 2002 mid-sized and some early
2003 model year vehicles for interior electrochromic Night Vision
Safety(TM) (NVS(R)) Mirrors. Shipments to customers in North America
increased by 20%, primarily due to increased penetration and higher
North American automotive production levels. Mirror unit shipments to
automotive customers outside North America increased by 19% compared
with the first six months in 2001, primarily due to increased
interior and exterior mirror sub-assembly shipments to European and
Asian-Pacific automakers. Net sales of the Company's fire protection
products were flat.

Cost of Goods Sold. As a percentage of net sales, cost of goods sold
remained unchanged at 60% in the first six months of 2002. This
unchanged percentage primarily reflected customer price reductions,
offset by the higher sales level leveraged over the fixed overhead
costs.

Operating Expenses. For the six months ended June 30, 2002, research
and development expenses increased approximately $984,000, but
decreased from 7% to 6% of net sales, when compared with the same
period last year, primarily reflecting additional staffing for new
product development, including mirrors with additional electronic
features. Selling, general and administrative expenses increased
approximately $580,000, but remained at 6% of net sales, when
compared with the first six months of 2001. This increased expense
primarily reflected the continued expansion of the Company's overseas
sales and engineering offices to support future growth opportunities.

SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2002, VERSUS SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2001
(CONT.)

Other Income - Net. Other income for the six months ended June 30,
2002, decreased by approximately $504,000 when compared with the
first six months of 2001, primarily due to declining interest rates
on investments, partially offset by realized gains from sales of
equity investments.

FINANCIAL CONDITION:
Management considers the Company's working capital and long-term
investments totaling approximately $402,350,000 at June 30, 2002,
together with internally generated cash flow and an unsecured
$5,000,000 line of credit from a bank, to be sufficient to cover
anticipated cash needs for the current year and the foreseeable
future.

TRENDS AND DEVELOPMENTS:
The Company is subject to market risk exposures of varying
correlations and volatilities, including foreign exchange rate risk,
interest rate risk and equity price risk. There were no significant
changes in the market risks reported in the Company's 2001 10-K
report during the quarter ended June 30, 2002.

The Company has some assets, liabilities and operations outside the
United States, which currently are not significant. Because the
Company sells its automotive mirrors throughout the world, it could
be significantly affected by weak economic conditions in worldwide
markets that could reduce demand for its products.

In addition to price reductions over the life of its long-term
agreements, the Company continues to experience pricing pressures
from its automotive customers, which have affected, and which will
continue to affect, its margins to the extent that the Company is
unable to offset the price reductions with productivity improvements,
engineering and purchasing cost reductions, and increases in unit
sales volume. In addition, the Company continues to experience from
time to time some pressure for select raw material cost increases.

The Company currently supplies NVS(R) Mirrors to DaimlerChrysler AG
and General Motors Corporation under long-term agreements. The
long-term supply agreement with DaimlerChrysler AG runs through the
2003 Model Year, while the GM contract is through the 2004 Model Year
for inside mirrors.
