     and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared
     in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been
     condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations, although the
     Registrant believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the

     consolidated financial statements be read in conjunction with the financial
     statements and notes thereto included in the Registrant's 1999 annual

(2)  In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed
     consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments, consisting of

(4)  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:

                       GENTEX CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

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

         RESULTS OF OPERATIONS:

         SECOND QUARTER 2000 VERSUS SECOND QUARTER 1999

         Net Sales. Net sales for the second quarter of 2000 increased by
         approximately $9,867,000, or 15%, when compared with the second quarter
         last year. Net sales of the Company's automotive mirrors increased by
         15% as automatic mirror unit shipments increased by 14% from
         approximately 1,493,000 in the second quarter of 1999 to 1,698,000 in
         the current quarter. This increase reflected increased penetration on
         2000 model year vehicles for interior and exterior electrochromic Night
         Vision Safety(TM) (NVS(R)) Mirrors overseas. Shipments to customers in
         North America decreased by 1%, primarily due to exterior mirror package
         changes in certain General Motors sport/utility vehicles and the
         Chrysler mini-van model changeover during the quarter. Mirror unit
         shipments to automotive customers outside North America increased by
         58% compared with the second quarter in 1999, primarily due to
         increased interior and exterior mirror sub-assembly shipments to
         European and Japanese automakers. Net sales of the Company's fire
         protection products increased 7%, primarily due to higher sales of
         certain of the Company's smoke detectors and signaling products.

         Cost of Goods Sold. As a percentage of net sales, cost of goods sold
         increased from 56% in the second quarter of 1999, to 58% for the
         comparable period in 2000. This increased percentage primarily
         reflected the start-up of the Company's third automotive manufacturing
         facility, customer price reductions and some shifts in mirror product
         mix.

         Operating Expenses. Research and development expenses increased
         approximately $713,000, and increased from 5% to 6% of net 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
         $867,000, and increased from 5% to 6% of net sales, when compared with
         the second quarter of 1999. This increased expense primarily reflected
         the start-up and expansion of the Company's overseas sales and
         engineering offices.

         Other Income - Net. Other income increased by approximately $1,388,000
         when compared with the second quarter of 1999, primarily due to higher
         interest rates and investable fund balances.

         SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2000 VERSUS SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1999

         Net Sales. Net sales for the six months ended June 30, 2000 increased
         by approximately $18,125,000, or 14%, when compared with the same
         period last year. Automatic mirror unit shipments increased from
         approximately 2,983,000 in the first six months of 1999 to 3,431,000 in
         the first six months of 2000. This increase primarily reflected
         increased penetration on foreign 2000 model year vehicles for interior
         and exterior electrochromic Night Vision Safety(TM) (NVS(R)) Mirrors.
         Shipments to customers in North America increased by 2%, primarily due
         to higher industry production levels, partially offset by exterior
         mirror package changes on certain General Motors sport/utility
         vehicles. Mirror unit shipments to automotive customers outside North
         America increased by 51% compared with the first six months in 1999,
         primarily due to increased interior and exterior mirror sub-assembly
         shipments to European and Japanese automakers. Net sales of the
         Company's fire protection products increased 5%, primarily due to
         higher sales of certain of the Company's smoke detectors and signaling
         products.

         Cost of Goods Sold. As a percentage of net sales, cost of goods sold
         increased from 56% in the first six months of 1999, to 57% for the
         comparable period in 2000. This increased percentage primarily
         reflected the start-up of the Company's third automotive manufacturing
         facility, customer price reductions and some shifts in mirror product
         mix.

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

         RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - CONTINUED:

         SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2000 VERSUS SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1999
         (CONT.)

         Operating Expenses. For the six months ended June 30, 2000, research
         and development expenses increased approximately $1,296,000, but
         remained at 5% of net sales, when compared with the same period 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 $1,592,000, and increased from 5% to 6% of net
         sales, when compared with the first six months of 1999. This increased
         expense primarily reflected the start-up and expansion of the Company's
         overseas sales and engineering offices.

         Other Income - Net. Other income for the six months ended June 30,
         2000, increased by approximately $1,874,000 when compared with the
         first six months of 1999, primarily due to higher interest rates and
         investable fund balances, partially offset by lower realized gains on
         the sale of equity investments.

         FINANCIAL CONDITION:

         Management considers the Company's working capital and long-term
         investments totaling approximately $286,321,000 at June 30, 2000,
         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 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.

         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 foreign 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 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 was recently extended through the 2004
         Model Year for inside mirrors.
