  NOTES TO CONDENSED COMBINED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

                           (unaudited)

                         January 1, 1994


NOTE A--BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying unaudited condensed combined consolidated financial
statements have been prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form
10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X.  Accordingly, they do not include
all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted
accounting principles for complete financial statements.  In the opinion of
management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals)
considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included.  Operating
results for the three and six months ended January 1, 1994, should not be
considered indicative of the results that may be expected for the year
ended July 2, 1994.  The combined consolidated balance sheet at
July 3, 1993, has been taken from the audited financial statements and
condensed.  The accompanying condensed combined consolidated financial
statements and footnotes thereto should be read in conjunction with the
Company's annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended July 3, 1993.

The Company's fiscal year is the 52 or 53 week period ending the Saturday
closest to June 30th.  Accordingly, each quarter will end on the Saturday
closest to quarter end.  Both the quarters ended January 1, 1994 and 
January 2, 1993 included 13 weeks.  The first half of 1994 included 26
weeks compared to 27 weeks for the same period last year.

Item 2.
DONNELLY'S CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
RESULTS OF OPERATION AND FINANCIAL CONDITION
2ND QUARTER REPORT 
FOR THE THREE MONTHS ENDED JANUARY 1, 1994


RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The Company's net sales and net income are subject to significant quarterly
fluctuations attributable primarily to production schedules of the
Company's major automotive customers.  These same factors cause quarterly
results to fluctuate from year to year, as well as quarter to quarter.

Consolidated net sales were $80,070,000 in the second quarter of 1994, an
increase of 13% over the second quarter last year.  North American
automotive production increased 9% during this period.  Sales increases in
modular window systems and complete exterior mirrors, along with the higher
North American automotive production, more than offset the effects of a
severe recession in the European automotive market.

Consolidated net sales for the first half of 1994 were $148,325,000
compared to $138,510,000 for the first half of 1993, an increase of 7%.
North American automotive production increased 10% in the same period.

Gross profit margin for the second quarter of 1994 was 20.8% compared to
22.0% in the second quarter of 1993.  The decrease resulted from lower
margins at the Company's Irish subsidiary due to the European recession and
start-up costs associated with new and transitioning business units.  While
margins should improve in the second half of the year, they will be
negatively impacted over the next 12-18 months as many business units
prepare for new business or complete a transition process.  Gross profit
margin during the first half of 1994 decreased to 20.7% from 22.2% last
year.

Selling, administrative and general expenses decreased as a percent-of-
sales to 11.4% from 11.7% in the second quarter compared to a year ago. 
Actual selling, administrative and general expenses increased by $812,000
and $737,000 for the second quarter and first half, respectively.  Patent
litigation costs continue, however at significantly lower levels than last
year.

Research and development expenses for the second quarter and first half of
1994 were 6.2% and 6.4% of sales, respectively.  Expenses in both periods
were nearly a full percentage point higher than last year.  These increases
are primarily the result of significant development costs being incurred to
support new business for Ford and Mazda complete exterior mirror systems in
model years 1995 and beyond, along with the new Chrysler minivan modular
window business slated for start-up in late 1995.

Interest expense increased $16,000 in the second quarter, but decreased
$64,000 in the first half of 1994.  Lower interest rates helped offset

higher borrowing levels.  Interest expense will increase in the second half
as capital investments to support future sales and profitability growth
continues.  

Other expenses in the second quarter of 1994 were $315,000 compared to
40,000 a year earlier.  The current quarter's expense was primarily due to
charges taken at the Company's Irish subsidiary related to the downturn in
the European automotive industry.

The Company had net income in the second quarter of 1994 of $675,000
compared to $2,089,000 in the same period last year.  Earnings decreased 
due to the following reasons:  1) a deep and prolonged recession in Europe
has negatively impacted Donnelly's Irish subsidiary;  2) increased research
and development expenditures to support new complete exterior mirror and
modular window programs  3) increased competition and a downturn in the
demand for coated glass used in liquid crystal displays is negatively
affecting Donnelly Applied Films performance and  4)  a $350,000
postretirement health care cost.  The Company had earnings in the first
half of $1,547,000 compared to $3,635,000 in the first half of 1993.  Tax
benefits associated with adopting SFAS 109 and retroactively reinstated
research and development tax credits resulting from the new tax act helped
offset some of the negative variances occurring in the period.


LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

The Company's current ratio was 2.1 at January 1, 1994 and July 3, 1993. 
Working capital increased $2,829,000 to $36,661,000 due to higher accounts
receivables at the end of the second quarter.  This occurred due to the
holiday period at the end of the second quarter.  Capital expenditures were
$12,611,000 in the first half of 1994, in support of facility expansions
for modular window systems, and exterior and interior mirrors.  Capital
spending is projected to increase in the second half of the year and
continue at a high level next year to support expanding and restructuring
business requirements.  These programs include construction of new modular
window and complete exterior mirror equipment and facilities, redesign of
existing manufacturing areas, and construction of new facilities to
consolidate operations and replace older facilities.  The increased
spending will be financed primarily through the Company's $55 million
revolving credit agreement, which only had $6.3 million borrowed against it
as of January 1, 1994.

Item 1.  Legal Proceedings

Certain electrochromic mirror technology of the Company is the subject of
patent litigation between the Company and Gentex Corporation ("Gentex"). 
Gentex brought two patent lawsuits against the Company alleging that the
Company's chemical electrochromic mirrors (as opposed to solid-state, thin-
film or polymer film electrochromic mirrors) infringed four Gentex patents. 
On April 20, 1993, following a jury trial in one of those lawsuits, the
court entered judgement in favor of Gentex.  The court awarded Gentex
damages and enjoined the Company from the manufacture, use or sale of
certain chemical electrochromic mirrors.

The Company entered into a settlement agreement with Gentex on May 20,
1993.  Under this agreement the Company paid a total of $3.6 million in
satisfaction of Gentex's claims for damages in both lawsuits.  The
provisions of the injunction entered by the court were not affected by this
settlement agreement.

On June 7, 1993, Gentex filed another lawsuit against the Company.  In this
suit Gentex has alleged that the Company's solid polymer film
electrochromic mirror infringes one of the Gentex patents involved in the
prior litigation, and that the Company has violated the injunction entered
by the court in the litigation.  Gentex is seeking unspecified damages and
an injunction against further alleged infringement by the Company.  The
Company has denied that its solid polymer film electrochromic mirror
infringes the Gentex patent, and has denied that it violated the court's
injunction.  Pre-trial discovery is being conducted in the lawsuit and
trial has been scheduled to begin on May 16, 1994.

On July 8, 1993, the Company filed a lawsuit against Gentex.  In this suit
the Company has alleged that Gentex's lighted electrochromic mirror
infringes three of the Company's patents, and that Gentex's electrochromic
mirror infringes a fourth patent owned by the Company.  The Company is
seeking unspecified damages and an injunction against further infringement
by Gentex.  Gentex has not yet answered the Company's complaint and no
trial date has been set.
