See accompanying notes to condensed consolidated financial statements. - 4 - 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. (3) Inventories consisted of the following at the respective balance sheet dates:

(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. -5- GENTEX CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONT.)

(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 automatic-dimming rearview mirrors for the automotive industry and fire protection products for the commercial building industry:

-6- GENTEX CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONT.) (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. -7- 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. -10- PART II.
