&#147;Determining Whether Instruments Granted in Share-Based Payment Transactions Are Participating
Securities,&#148; (FSP EITF 03-6-1). FSP EITF 03-6-1 states that unvested share-based payment awards
that contain nonforfeitable rights to dividends or dividend equivalents (whether paid or unpaid)
are participating securities and shall be included in the computation of earnings per share
pursuant to the two class method. FSP EITF 03-6-1 is effective for fiscal years beginning after
December&nbsp;31, 2008. The Company concluded that the adoption of FSP EITF 03-6-1 did not have a
material impact on its reported basic and diluted earnings per share amounts.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 10pt; margin-left: 4%">In September&nbsp;2006, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS)&nbsp;No.&nbsp;157,
&#147;Fair Value Measurements&#148; (&#147;SFAS No.&nbsp;157&#148;). This statement establishes a framework for
measuring the fair value of assets and liabilities. This framework is intended to provide
increased consistency in how fair value determinations are made under various existing
accounting standards that permit, or in some cases require, estimates of fair market value.
SFAS No.&nbsp;157 also expands financial statement disclosure requirements about a company&#146;s use of
fair value measurements, including the effect of such measure on earnings.
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 10pt; margin-left: 4%">The Company adopted the provisions of SFAS No.&nbsp;157 related to its financial assets and
liabilities in the first quarter of 2008, and to its non-financial assets and liabilities in the
first quarter of 2009, neither of which had a material impact on the Company&#146;s consolidated
financial position, results of operations or cash flows. The Company&#146;s investment securities
are classified as available for sale and are stated at fair value based on quoted market prices.
Assets or liabilities that have recurring measurements are shown below as of March&nbsp;31, 2009:

interpreted, provides guidance on determining when an investment is other-than-temporarily
impaired. The Company reviews its fixed income and equity investment portfolio for any
unrealized losses that would be deemed other-than-temporary and require the recognition of an
impairment loss in income. If the cost of an investment exceeds its fair value, the Company
evaluates, among other factors, general market conditions, the duration and extent to which the
fair value is less than cost, and the Company&#146;s intent and ability to hold the investments.
Management also considers the type of security, related industry, sector performance, as well as
published investment ratings and analyst reports to evaluate its portfolio. Once a decline in
fair value is determined to be other-than-temporary, an impairment charge is recorded and a new
cost basis in the investment is established. If market, industry, and/or investee conditions
deteriorate, the Company may incur future impairments. Management considered equity investment
losses of $17,909,901 to be other-than-temporary at December&nbsp;31, 2008. The Company considered
additional equity investment losses of $1,290,590 to be other-than-temporary at March&nbsp;31, 2009.
Accordingly, the losses were recognized in the consolidated statement of income in their
respective reporting periods.

approved by shareholders. The purpose of the Plan is to permit grants of shares, subject to
restrictions, to key employees of the Company as a means of retaining and rewarding them for
long-term performance and to increase their ownership in the Company. Shares awarded under the
plan entitle the shareholder to all rights of common stock ownership except that the shares may
not be sold, transferred, pledged, exchanged or otherwise disposed of during the restriction
period. The restriction period is determined by the Compensation Committee, appointed by the
Board of Directors, but may not exceed ten years. As of March&nbsp;31, 2009, the Company had
unearned stock-based compensation of $4,034,015 associated with these restricted stock grants.
The unearned stock-based compensation related to these grants is being amortized to compensation
expense over the applicable restriction periods. Amortization expense from restricted stock
grants in the first quarter ended March&nbsp;31, 2009, was $396,202.

</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 10pt; margin-left: 4%"><U><I>Net Sales.</I></U> Net sales for the first quarter of 2009 decreased by approximately
$84,139,000, or 47%, when compared with the first quarter last year. Net sales of the
Company&#146;s automotive mirrors decreased by approximately $83,105,000, or 48%, in the first
quarter of 2009, when compared with the first quarter last year, primarily due to lower
light vehicle production levels globally. Auto-dimming mirror unit shipments decreased 50%
from approximately 4,167,000 in the first quarter 2008 to 2,093,000 in the current quarter.
Unit shipments to customers in North America for the current quarter decreased by 56%
compared with the first quarter of the prior year, primarily due to significantly lower
light vehicle production levels. Mirror unit shipments for the current quarter to
automotive customers outside North America decreased by 46% compared with the first quarter
in 2008, primarily due to lower light vehicle production levels in Asia and Europe. Net
sales of the Company&#146;s fire protection products decreased 17% for the current quarter
versus the same quarter of last year, primarily due to the weak commercial construction
market.
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 10pt; margin-left: 4%"><U><I>Cost of Goods Sold.</I></U> As a percentage of net sales, cost of goods sold increased
from 64.8% in the first quarter of 2008 to 76.2% in the first quarter of 2009. This
percentage increase primarily reflected the Company&#146;s inability to leverage fixed overhead
costs due to weak light vehicle production levels globally, annual customer price
reductions and foreign exchange rates, which were partially offset by purchasing cost
reductions. Approximately three-quarters of the increase in cost of goods sold was due to
the Company&#146;s inability to leverage fixed overhead costs. Each remaining negative and
positive factor is estimated to have impacted cost of goods sold as a percentage of net
sales by 1-2&nbsp;percentage points.
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 10pt; margin-left: 4%"><U><I>Operating Expenses.</I></U> Engineering, research and development (E, R &#038; D) expenses for
the current quarter decreased 11% and approximately $1,356,000 when compared with the same
quarter last year, primarily due to reduced employee compensation expense. Selling,
general and administrative expenses decreased 12% and approximately $1,192,000, for the
current quarter, when compared with the same quarter last year. Approximately two-thirds
of the decline was the result of reduced employee compensation expense. The balance of the
decline was due to foreign exchange rates.
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 10pt; margin-left: 4%"><U><I>Total Other Income (expense).</I></U> Investment income for the current quarter decreased
by approximately $2,868,000, when compared with the first quarter of 2008, primarily due to
lower interest rates.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 10pt; margin-left: 4%">A non-cash charge for other-than-temporary impairment losses on available-for-sale
securities of $1,291,000 was recognized in the current quarter due to unrealized losses on
equity investments (refer to investment footnote for additional details).
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 10pt; margin-left: 4%">Other-net decreased $5,902,000 in the current quarter, when compared with the first quarter
of 2008, primarily due to realized losses on the sale of equity investments (which
accounted for approximately three-quarters of the decrease).
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 10pt; margin-left: 4%"><U><I>Taxes.</I></U> The provision for (benefits from) income taxes varied from the statutory
rate during the current quarter, primarily due to the domestic manufacturing deduction.

operating margin and the decrease in total other income (expense).

approximately $39,603,000 to $16,063,000, compared to $55,666,000, for the same period last
year, primarily due a decrease in net income and accrued liabilities. Capital expenditures
for the three months ended March&nbsp;31, 2009, were $5,989,000, compared to $14,108,000 for the

to December&nbsp;31, 2008. The increase was primarily due to the sale of equity securities not
re-invested during the quarter and cash flow from operations, partially offset by dividends
paid.

December&nbsp;31, 2008. The decrease was primarily due to the sale of equity securities not

given current market conditions.

earnings, available cash and other factors that the Company deems appropriate. On July&nbsp;20,
2005, the Company announced that it had raised the price at which the Company may
repurchase shares under the existing plan. On May&nbsp;16, 2006, the Company announced that the
Company&#146;s Board of Directors had authorized the repurchase of an additional 8,000,000
shares under the plan. On August&nbsp;14, 2006, the Company announced that the Company&#146;s Board

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 10pt; margin-left: 4%">The preparation of the Company&#146;s consolidated condensed financial statements contained in
this report, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally
accepted in the Unites States, requires management to make estimates and assumptions that
affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. On an
ongoing basis, management evaluates these estimates. Estimates are based on historical
experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the
circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying
values of assets and liabilities that may not be readily apparent from other sources.
Historically, actual results have not been materially different from the Company&#146;s
estimates. However, actual results may differ from these estimates under different
assumptions or conditions.
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 10pt; margin-left: 4%">The Company has identified the critical accounting policies used in determining estimates
and assumptions in the amounts reported in its Management&#146;s Discussion and Analysis of
Financial Condition and Results of Operations in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the
fiscal year ended December&nbsp;31, 2008. Management believes there have been no significant

its Rear Camera Display (RCD)&nbsp;Mirror that consists of a liquid crystal display (LCD)&nbsp;that
shows a panoramic video of objects behind the vehicle in real time. In addition, the
Company previously announced a number of OEM and dealer or port-installed programs for its
RCD Mirror. The Company recently announced that its RCD Mirror is offered on the 2010
Lexus RX as a stand-alone option or as part of multiple RX packages. The Company is
currently shipping auto-dimming mirrors with RCD for 27 models.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 10pt; margin-left: 4%">On February&nbsp;28, 2008, the President signed into law the &#147;Kids Transportation Safety Act of
2007&#148;. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA)&nbsp;had one year to initiate
rulemaking to revise the federal standard to expand the field of view so that drivers can
detect objects directly behind vehicles. NHTSA then has three years to determine how
automakers must meet the rules, which may include the use of additional mirrors, sensors,
rear back-up cameras (which could be in a mirror, navigation systems or other LCD display).
Once NHTSA publishes the new rules, automakers will have 48&nbsp;months to comply with those
rules for vehicles in the United States. The Company&#146;s RCD Mirror is a cost competitive
product that is relatively easy to implement and may be among the technologies that NHTSA
will include as a means to meet the requirements of the legislation.

proprietary intelligent high-beam headlamp assist feature, to General Motors, Chrysler,
BMW, Audi, Opel and Toyota. The Company recently announced that SmartBeam is offered on
the 2010 Lexus RX as a stand-alone option or as part of multiple RX packages. The Company
is currently shipping auto-dimming mirrors with SmartBeam for 23 models.
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 10pt; margin-left: 4%">During 2005, the Company reached an agreement with PPG Aerospace to work together to
provide the variable dimmable windows for the passenger compartment on the new Boeing 787
Dreamliner series of aircraft. Gentex will ship about 100 windows for the passenger
compartment of each 787. The Company believes that the commercially viable market for
variable dimmable windows is currently limited to the aerospace industry. The Company
began shipping parts for test planes in mid-2007. Boeing, based on the latest information
available, now expects the first delivery of the 787 Dreamliner series of aircraft to occur
in early 2010. Delays were due to the impact of the machinists&#146; strike and fastener
replacement work. The Company anticipates that it will begin to deliver our windows to the
production line in 2009. During 2008, the Company and PPG Aerospace announced that they
will work together to supply dimmable windows to Hawker Beechcraft Corporation for the
passenger-cabin windows of the 2010 Beechcraft King Air 350i airplane.
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 10pt; margin-left: 4%">The Company currently estimates that top line revenue will decline approximately 30% in the
second quarter of 2009 compared with the same period in 2008, based on the current forecast
for light vehicle production levels and the Company&#146;s anticipated product mix. These
estimates are based on current light vehicle production forecasts in
the regions to which the Company ships product, as well as the estimated option rates for
its mirrors on prospective vehicle models and anticipated product mix. Uncertainties,
including light vehicle production levels, extended automotive plant shutdowns, sales rates
in North America, Europe and Asia, and the impact of potential automotive customer
(including their Tier 1 suppliers) bankruptcies, work stoppages, strikes, etc., which could
disrupt our shipments to these customers, making forecasting difficult. Due to the
significant uncertainties with global vehicle production volumes, the global economy and
financial markets, it is an extremely difficult environment to forecast, and as a result,
the Company is not providing revenue estimates beyond the second quarter of 2009 at this
time. The Company also estimates that engineering, research and development expenses are
currently expected to decrease approximately 10% in the second quarter of 2009 compared
with the same period in 2008, primarily due to reduced employee compensation expense.
Selling, general and administrative expenses are currently expected to decrease
approximately 10% the second quarter of 2009 compared with the same period in 2008,
primarily due to reduced employee compensation expense and foreign exchange rates.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 10pt; margin-left: 4%">The Company utilizes the light vehicle production forecasting services of CSM Worldwide,
and CSM&#146;s end-of-March forecast for light vehicle production for the second quarter of 2009
are approximately 2.1&nbsp;million units for North America, 4.2&nbsp;million for Europe and 2.5
million for Japan and Korea. CSM&#146;s end-of-March forecast for light vehicle production for
calendar year 2009 are approximately 8.2&nbsp;million for North America, 15.9&nbsp;million for Europe
and 10.7&nbsp;million for Japan and Korea.
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 10pt; margin-left: 4%">The Company is subject to increased market risk exposures of varying correlations and
volatilities due to the turmoil in the financial markets, including foreign exchange rate
risk, interest rate risk and equity price risk. Uncertain equity markets could negatively
impact our financial performance due to an increase in realized losses on the sale of
equity investments and/or recognized losses due to an other-than-temporary impairment
adjustment on available-for-sale securities (mark-to-market adjustments). During the
quarter ended March&nbsp;31, 2009, there were no material changes in the risk factors previously
disclosed in the Company&#146;s report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December&nbsp;31, 2008,
although certain risks have increased as noted above.
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 10pt; margin-left: 4%">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, the Company is significantly affected by weak economic conditions in worldwide
markets that are reducing demand for its products.
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 10pt; margin-left: 4%">Now more than ever before, automakers have also 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. This increased volatility and uncertainty has made it more difficult for
the Company to forecast future sales, effectively manage costs and utilize capital,
engineering, research and development, and human resource investments.
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 10pt; margin-left: 4%">The Company continues to experience significant 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 and
manufacturing yield improvements, engineering and purchasing cost reductions, and increases
in unit sales volume, all of which pose increasing challenges in the current automotive
production environment. In addition, financial pressures at certain automakers are
resulting in increased cost reduction efforts by them, including requests for additional
price reductions, decontenting certain features from vehicles, customer market testing of
future business, dual sourcing initiatives and warranty cost-sharing programs, which could
adversely impact the Company&#146;s sales growth, margins, profitability and, as a result, our
share price. The Company also continues to experience pressure for select raw material
cost increases.
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 10pt; margin-left: 4%">While the automotive industry has always been cyclical and highly impacted by levels of
economic activity, the current environment (global recession, credit crisis, decline in
consumer confidence, government loans to certain OEM&#146;s that require certain conditions to
be met) is unprecedented and is causing increased financial and production stresses
evidenced by lower domestic production levels, consumer preference shift to smaller
vehicles where we have a lower penetration rate and lower content per vehicle due to fuel
costs, customer and supplier bankruptcies, overcapacity and commodity material cost
increases. If our automotive customers (including their Tier 1 suppliers) experience
bankruptcies, work stoppages, strikes, etc., it could disrupt the Company&#146;s shipments
to these customers, which could adversely affect the Company&#146;s sales, margins,
profitability and, as a result, our share price.
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 10pt; margin-left: 4%">In light of the well-publicized financial stresses within the worldwide automotive
industry, certain automakers and tier one mirror customers are considering bankruptcy
and/or the sale of certain business segments. Should one or more of the Company&#146;s larger
customers (including sales through their Tier 1 suppliers) declare bankruptcy or sell their
business, it could adversely affect the collection of receivables, our sales, margins,
profitability and, as a result, our share price. The current uncertain economic
environment continues to cause increased financial pressures and production stresses on our
customers, which could impact timely customer payments and ultimately the collectibility of
receivables.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 10pt; margin-left: 4%">The Company increased its allowance for doubtful accounts by $3.8&nbsp;million in the fourth
quarter of 2008 related to financially distressed Tier 1 automotive customers. While the
Company is making progress in collecting a portion of the significantly past due account
balances from certain customers, the overall allowance for doubtful accounts related to all
financially distressed Tier 1 automotive customers remains unchanged.
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 10pt; margin-left: 4%">The Company&#146;s total credit exposure for the Detroit Three automakers was approximately $13
million as of March&nbsp;31, 2009. The Company&#146;s credit exposure with respect to each automaker
approximately represents their respective percentage of total Company revenues during the
quarter. The Company does not have any specific allowances for doubtful accounts
established for the Detroit Three automakers as of March&nbsp;31, 2009. Subsequent to March&nbsp;31,
2009, the Company has decided to participate in the government supplier support programs
with General Motors and Chrysler. If the Company is accepted into the supplier support
programs and agrees to the terms, the programs will cover a portion of our receivables
pertaining to General Motors and/or Chrysler shipments to U.S. assembly plants after March
31, 2009. On April&nbsp;30, 2009, Chrysler filed for bankruptcy protection under Chapter&nbsp;11 of
the United States Bankruptcy Code leaving the Company&#146;s status with respect to the supplier
support program even more uncertain. As stated above, the Company does not have any
specific allowance for doubtful accounts established for Chrysler as of March&nbsp;31, 2009, but
does not expect that Chrysler&#146;s bankruptcy filing will have a material impact on its
consolidated financial position or results from operations.

System in 2009. While we believe that all necessary system development processes, testing
procedures and user training that is planned will be adequate and completed prior to final
implementation, there is no guarantee that all system components will function as intended
at the date of implementation/conversion. Unanticipated failure(s) could cause delays in
our ability to produce or ship its products, process transactions, or otherwise conduct
business in its markets, resulting in material financial risk.
