1995. These statements reflect Apogee management&#146;s expectations or beliefs as of the date of this release. The company undertakes no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information,
future events or otherwise. All forward-looking statements are qualified by factors that may affect the operating results of the company, including the following: Operational risks within (A) the Architectural segment: i) competitive,
price-sensitive and changing market conditions; ii) economic conditions and the cyclical nature of the worldwide commercial construction industry; iii) product performance, reliability or quality problems that could delay payments, increase costs,
impact orders or lead to litigation; and iv) the segment&#146;s ability to fully utilize production capacity and project managers; (B) the Auto Glass segment: i) changes in market dynamics; ii) market seasonality; iii) highly competitive, fairly
mature industry; iv) performance of the PPG Auto Glass LLC joint venture, including any impact from the planned sale of Harmon AutoGlass; and v) possible industry consolidation; and (C) the Large-Scale Optical segment: i) new product introductions
and management of product life cycles; ii) intensely competitive markets; iii) highly cyclical markets that are impacted by economic slowdowns; iv) dependence on a relatively small number of customers; and v) ability to utilize manufacturing
facilities. Additional factors include: i) quarterly revenue and operating results that are volatile and difficult to predict; ii) the uncertainty of whether we will be able to complete a sale of the Harmon AutoGlass business on terms, or within a
time period, acceptable to us; iii) the possibility of a material product liability event; iv) the costs of compliance with governmental regulations relating to hazardous substances; v) management of discontinued operations exiting activities; and
vi) foreign currency risk related to discontinued operations. The company cautions readers that actual future results could differ materially from those described in the forward-looking statements. The company wishes to caution investors that other
factors may in the future prove to be important in affecting the company&#146;s results of operations. New factors emerge from time to time and it is not possible for management to predict all such factors, nor can it assess the impact of each such
factor on the business or the extent to which any factor, or a combination of factors, may cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements. For a more detailed explanation of the forgoing and other
risks and uncertainties, see Exhibit 99.1 to the company&#146;s Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 1, 2003. </FONT></P>
