GENTEX CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(1) The condensed consolidated financial statements included herein have been
prepared by the Registrant, without audit, pursuant to the rules and
regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain information
and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared
in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United
States have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and
regulations, although the Registrant believes that the disclosures are
adequate to make the information presented not misleading. It is suggested
that these condensed consolidated financial statements be read in
conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in the
Registrant's 2002 annual report on Form 10-K.
(2) In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed
consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments, consisting of
only a normal and recurring nature, necessary to present fairly the
financial position of the Registrant as of June 30, 2003, and the results
of operations and cash flows for the interim periods presented.

(5) At June 30, 2003, the Company had two stock option plans and an employee
stock purchase plan. The Company accounts for these plans under the
recognition and measurement principles of APB Opinion No. 25 (Accounting
for Stock Issued to Employees) and related interpretations. No stock-based
employee compensation cost is reflected in net income, as all options
granted under these plans have an exercise price equal to the market value
of the underlying common stock on the date of grant. The following table
illustrates the effect on net income and earnings per share if the Company
had applied the fair value recognition provisions of Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based
Compensation," to stock-based employee compensation.

(6) Comprehensive income reflects the change in equity of a business enterprise
during a period from transactions and other events and circumstances from
non-owner sources. For the Company, comprehensive income represents net
income adjusted for items such as unrealized gains and losses on certain
investments and foreign currency translation adjustments. Comprehensive
income was as follows:

(7) The increase in common stock during the quarter ended June 30, 2003, is
attributable to the issuance of 374,348 shares of the Company's common
stock under its stock-based compensation plans. The increase in common
stock during the six months ended June 30, 2003, is attributable to the
issuance of 591,269 shares of the Company's common stock under its
stock-based compensation plans, partially offset by the repurchase of
415,000 shares.
(8) The Company currently manufactures electro-optic products, including

(9) In order to avoid the registration requirements of the Investment Company
Act of 1940, the Company has changed its intent to hold certain of its
held-to-maturity investments and has therefore reclassified investments in
debt securities with a net carrying value of $202 million from
held-to-maturity to available-for-sale during the second quarter of 2003.
The unrealized gain on these securities, net of income taxes, was
approximately $1 million at the time of the reclassification and was
recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income within shareholders'
investment at June 30, 2003.
(10) New Accounting Pronouncements - Financial Accounting Standards Board
(FASB) Interpretation No. 45, "Guarantor's Accounting and Disclosure
Requirements for Guarantees, Including Indirect Guarantees of Indebtedness
of Others," changes current practice in accounting for, and disclosure of,
guarantees. Interpretation No. 45 will require certain guarantees to be
recorded as liabilities at fair value on the Company's balance sheet.
Current practice requires liabilities related to guarantees to be recorded
only when a loss is probable and reasonably estimable, as those terms are
defined in SFAS No. 5, "Accounting for Contingencies." Interpretation No.
45 also requires a guarantor to make significant new disclosures, even when
the likelihood of making any payments under the guarantee is remote, which
is another change from current practice. The disclosure requirements of
Interpretation No. 45 were effective as of December 31, 2002; however the
Company currently does not have significant third-party guarantees or
warranty liabilities that would require disclosure under the
interpretation. The initial recognition and measurement provisions are
applicable on a prospective basis to guarantees issued or modified after
December 31, 2002. The recognition and measurement provisions were adopted,
prospectively, as of January 1, 2003, and did not have a significant effect
on the Company's consolidated financial position or results of operations.
In December 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 148, "Accounting for Stock-Based
Compensation -- Transition and Disclosure -- an amendment of FASB Statement
No. 123." SFAS No. 148 amends SFAS No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based
Compensation," to provide alternative methods of transition for a voluntary
change to the fair-value-based method of accounting for stock-based
employee compensation. In addition, SFAS No. 148 amends the disclosure
requirements of SFAS No. 123 to require disclosure in interim financial
statements regarding the method used on reported results. The Company does
not intend to adopt a fair-value-based method of accounting for stock-based
employee compensation until a final standard is issued by the FASB that
requires this accounting. Pro forma disclosures of quarterly earnings using
the fair-value method are included in Note 5 of this Form 10-Q.
In January 2003, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 46, "Consolidation of
Variable Interest Entities." This standard clarifies the application of
Accounting Research Bulletin No. 51, "Consolidated Financial Statement,"
and addresses consolidation by business enterprises of variable interest
entities. Interpretation No. 46 requires existing unconsolidated variable
interest entities to be consolidated by their primary beneficiaries if the
entities do not effectively disperse risk among the parties involved.
Interpretation No. 46 also enhances the disclosure requirements related to
variable interest entities. This interpretation is effective immediately
for variable interest entities created or in which an enterprise obtains an
interest after January 31, 2003. Interpretation No. 46 will be effective
for the Company beginning July 1, 2003, for all interest in variable
interest entities acquired before February 1, 2003. The adoption of
Interpretation No. 46 is not expected to have a significant effect on the
Company's consolidated financial position or results of operations.

GENTEX CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND
FINANCIAL CONDITION
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS:
SECOND QUARTER 2003 VERSUS SECOND QUARTER 2002
Net Sales. Net sales for the second quarter of 2003 increased by
approximately $19,571,000, or 20%, when compared with the second
quarter last year. Net sales of the Company's automotive mirrors
increased by $19,328,000, or 21%, as electrochromic mirror unit
shipments increased by 11% from approximately 2,278,000 in the second
quarter of 2002 to 2,534,000 in the current quarter. These increases
reflected the increased penetration of interior and exterior
electrochromic Night Vision Safety(TM) (NVS(R)) Mirrors on 2003 model
year vehicles plus additional electronic feature content. Unit
shipments to customers in North America for the second quarter of
2003 increased by 7% compared to the same period in the prior year,
primarily due to increased penetration, despite a 9% decline in North
American automotive industry production levels. Mirror unit shipments
to automotive customers outside North America increased by 17% for
the second quarter of 2003 compared with the second quarter in 2002,
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 4% for the second
quarter of 2003, 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 60% in the second quarter of 2002 to 59% in the second
quarter of 2003. This decreased percentage primarily reflected the
higher sales level leveraged over the fixed overhead costs and
product mix, partially offset by annual customer price reductions.
Each factor is estimated to have impacted cost of goods sold as a
percentage of net sales by approximately 1-2%.
Operating Expenses. Engineering, research and development expenses
for the quarter increased approximately $687,000, but decreased from
6% to 5% of net sales as the additional expenses were leveraged over
increased sales, when compared with the same quarter last year,
primarily reflecting additional staffing, engineering and testing for
new product development, including mirrors with additional electronic
features. Selling, general and administrative expenses increased
approximately $846,000 for the quarter, but remained at 5% of net
sales, when compared with the second quarter of 2002. This increased
expense primarily reflected the continued expansion of the Company's
overseas sales and engineering offices.
Other Income - Net. Other income decreased by approximately $604,000
for the quarter when compared with the second quarter of 2002,
primarily due to realized losses on the sale of equity investments.
SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2003, VERSUS SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2002
Net Sales. Net sales for the six months ended June 30, 2003,
increased by approximately $45,831,000, or 25%, when compared with
the same period last year. Automatic-dimming mirror unit shipments
increased by 17% from approximately 4,334,000 in the first six months
of 2002 to 5,069,000 in the first six months of 2003. This increase
reflected the increased penetration on 2003 model year vehicles for
interior and exterior electrochromic NVS Mirrors. Unit shipments to
customers in North America increased by 11% for the first six months
of 2003, primarily due to increased penetration, despite lower North
American automotive industry production levels. Mirror unit shipments
to automotive customers outside North America increased by 26% for
the first six months of 2003 compared with the first six months in
2002, 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% for the
first six months of 2003, 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 60% to 58% in the first six months of 2003. This
decreased percentage primarily reflected the higher sales level
leveraged over the fixed overhead costs and product mix, partially
offset by annual customer price reductions. Each factor is estimated
to have impacted cost of goods sold as a percentage of net sales by
approximately 1-2%.
-8-
Operating Expenses. For six months ended June 30, 2003, engineering,
research and development expenses increased approximately $1,309,000,
but decreased from 6% to 5% of net sales as the additional expenses
were leveraged over increased 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 $1,333,000 for the first six months of 2003, but
decreased from 6% to 5% of net sales as the additional expenses were
leveraged over increased sales, when compared to the first six months
of 2002.This increased expense primarily reflected the continued
expansion of the Company's overseas sales and engineering offices.
Other Income -- Net. Other income for the six months ended June 30,
2003, decreased by approximately $2,118,000 when compared with the
first six months of 2002, primarily due to realized losses on the
sale of equity investments.
FINANCIAL CONDITION:
Cash flow from operating activities for the six months ended June 30,
2003, increased $7,256,000 to $63,178,000, compared to $55,922,000
for the same period last year, primarily due to increased net income.
Capital expenditures for the six months ended June 30, 2003, were
$11,044,000, compared to $20,236,000 for the same period last year,
primarily due to the purchase of a company airplane in 2002.
Management considers the Company's working capital and long-term
investments totaling approximately $518,335,000 at June 30, 2003,
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 next year and for the foreseeable
future.
On October 8, 2002, the Company announced a share repurchase plan,
under which the Company may purchase up to 4,000,000 shares based on
a number of factors, including market conditions, the market price of
the Company's common stock, anti-dilutive effect on earnings,
available cash and other factors as the Company deems appropriate.
During the quarter ended March 31, 2003, the Company repurchased
415,000 shares at a cost of approximately $10,247,000. No shares were
repurchased during the quarter ended June 30, 2003.
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. During the quarter ended
June 30, 2003, there were no significant changes in the market risks
reported in the Company's 2002 Form 10-K report.
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. The Company
utilizes the forecasting services of J.D. Power and Associates, and
its current forecasts for light vehicle production are approximately
16.0 million in North America, 15.7 million in Western Europe and
20.3 million in the Asia-Pacific region for calendar 2003.
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, profit pressures at certain automakers are
resulting in increased cost reduction efforts by them, including
requests for additional price reductions, decontenting certain
features from vehicles, and warranty cost-sharing programs, which
could adversely impact the Company's sales growth and margins. The
Company also continues to experience from time to time some pressure
for select raw material cost increases.
Automakers have been experiencing increased volatility and
uncertainty in executing planned new programs which have, in some
cases, resulted in cancellations or delays of new vehicle platforms,
package reconfigurations and inaccurate volume forecasts. In
addition, there remains uncertainty associated with automotive light
vehicle production schedules for the balance of the year due to
weaker automotive sales, the economy and geopolitical factors,
including the occupation in Iraq. This increased volatility and
uncertainty has made it more difficult for
-9-
TRENDS AND DEVELOPMENTS (CONT.):
the Company to forecast future sales and effectively utilize capital,
engineering, research and development, and human resource
investments.
The Company does not have any significant off-balance sheet
arrangements or commitments that have not been recorded in its
consolidated financial statements.
On October 1, 2002, Magna International acquired Donnelly
Corporation. Magna Donnelly is the Company's major competitor for
sales of automatic-dimming rearview mirrors to domestic and foreign
vehicle manufacturers and their mirror suppliers. The Company also
sells certain automatic-dimming rearview mirror sub-assemblies to
Magna Donnelly. To date, the Company is not aware of any significant
impact of Magna's acquisition of Donnelly upon the Company; however,
any ultimate significant impact has not yet been determined.
ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
The information called for by this item is provided under the caption
"Trends and Developments" under Item 2 -- Management's Discussion and
Analysis of Results of Operations and Financial Condition.
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
As of June 30, 2003, an evaluation was performed under the
supervision and with the participation of the Company's management,
including the CEO and CFO, of the effectiveness of the design and
operation of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures [(as
defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a -- 14(c) and 15d -- 14(c)]. Based
on that evaluation, the Company's management, including the CEO and
CFO, concluded that the Company's disclosure controls and procedures
were effective as of June 30, 2003, to ensure that material
information relating to the Company would be made known to them by
others within the Company, particularly during the period in which
this Form 10-Q was being prepared. There have been no significant
changes in the Company's internal controls over financial reporting
or in other factors that could significantly affect internal controls
over financial reporting subsequent to June 30, 2003, nor any
significant deficiencies or material weaknesses in such controls
requiring corrective actions. As a result, no corrective actions were
required or taken.
Statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q which express
"belief", "anticipation" or "expectation" as well as other statements
which are not historical fact, are forward-looking statements and
involve risks and uncertainties described under the headings
"Management's Discussion and Analysis of Results of Operations and
Financial Condition" and "Trends and Developments" that could cause
actual results to differ materially from those projected. All
forward-looking statements in this Report are based on information
available to the Company on the date hereof, and the Company assumes
no obligation to update any such forward-looking statements.
