[LETTERHEAD OF COOPERS & LYBRAND]




                       REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS

To the Partners of Sun-Flex, L.P.:

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Sun-Flex, L.P.
(a California limited partnership) as of December 31, 1991 and 1992, and the
related consolidated statements of operations, partners' capital, and cash flows
for the years then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of
the Partnership's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on
these financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing 
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain 
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting 
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes 
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by 
management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. 
We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in 
all material respects, the consolidated financial position of Sun-Flex, L.P. as 
of December 31, 1991 and 1992 and results of its operations and its cash flows 
for the years then ended, in conformity with generally accepted accounting 
principles.

1.   Partnership:
     -----------

     Sun-Flex, L.P. (the Partnership) was a limited partnership organized under
     the state laws of California in October 1990 and commenced operations on
     November 1, 1990, concurrent with the purchase of the operating assets of
     an existing business from Sun-Flex Company, Inc. and Daca International
     B.V. (the Acquisition). The general partner was Micromesh Corporation. The
     Partnership was formed to manufacture, sell and distribute micromesh and
     glass filters for cathode ray tube terminals.

     The Partnership's manufacturing facilities were maintained by its wholly
     owned subsidiary, Sun-Flex Ireland Limited in Sligo, Ireland. The
     subsidiary was responsible for manufacturing the product, which was sold
     exclusively to the Partnership. The Partnership then sold the product to
     distributors and end-users.

     The Partnership was funded by Micromesh Corporation, as the general
     partner, contributing $20,000 in cash and the limited partners contributing
     $1,980,000 in cash.

     The Partnership agreement prescribed that taxable income shall be allocated
     40% to the general partner and 60% to the limited partners equally in
     proportion to the amount of their respective capital contributions as of
     the last day of such taxable year.

     Cash available for distribution, as determined by the general partner,
     shall be allocated 1% to the general partner and 99% to the limited
     partners equally in proportion to the amount of their respective capital
     contributions until each of them has received cumulative distributions
     equal to their respective initial contributions.

     Thereafter, distributions shall be made 40% to the general partner and 60%
     to the limited partners equally in proportion to the amount of their
     respective capital contributions as of the date on which such distribution
     is being made.

     Effective October 31, 1994, the Partnership was purchased by Southwall
     Technologies Inc. for approximately $500,000, which will only be paid from
     the Partnership's operating income, if any, over the four year period
     ending in 1998. The Partnership was dissolved upon purchase by Southwall
     Technologies Inc. and is now operated as a subsidiary of Southwall
     Technologies Inc.

2.   Summary of Significant Accounting Policies:
     ------------------------------------------

     Financial Statement Presentation:

     The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company
     and its wholly owned subsidiary (see Note 1). All significant intercompany
     accounts and transactions have been eliminated.

     Foreign Currency Translation:

     The U.S. dollar is considered to be the functional currency for the
     Company's foreign operation. Accordingly, nonmonetary assets and
     liabilities have been translated into U.S. dollars at a historical rate;
     monetary assets and liabilities have been translated into U.S. dollars
     using the exchange rate at the balance sheet date, and revenues and
     expenses have been generally translated into U.S. Dollars at the weighted
     average exchange rate during the period. Foreign currency transaction gains
     and losses, as well as the effects of translation are included in the
     accompanying statements of operations.

     Cash and Cash Equivalents:

     The Company considers all highly liquid investments with maturities of 
     three months or less from date of purchase to be cash equivalents.

     Concentration of Credit Risk:

     The Company's cash and cash equivalents were on deposit with a local U.S.
     and an Irish financial institution. These deposits bear the credit risk
     associated with the financial institutions.

     Foreign accounts receivables comprised 81% and 52% of total receivables at
     December 31, 1991 and 1992, respectively. At December 31, 1992, no single
     customer comprised more than 10% of total accounts receivable. Two
     international distributors represented 46% and 16% of total accounts
     receivable at December 31, 1991.

2.   Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, continued:
     ------------------------------------------

     The Company sells and licenses its products to companies across many 
     industries, directly and through distributors and value-added resellers.
     The Company generally does not require collateral and performs ongoing
     credit evaluations of its customers. The Company maintains an allowance for
     credit losses and such losses have been within management's expectations.

     Inventories:

     Inventories are stated at the lower of weighted average cost (which 
     approximates first-in, first-out basis) or market.

     Property and Equipment:

     Property and equipment are recorded at cost. Depreciation is calculated 
     using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the
     assets which are five years for machinery and equipment, seven years for
     furniture and fixtures and three and one-half years for tooling which is
     maintained overseas. Upon the disposition of fixed assets, the cost and
     related accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and the
     resulting gains or losses are included in operations.

     Organization Costs:

     Organization costs are amortized on a straight-line basis over five years. 
     Accumulated amortization was $9,794 and $18,192 at December 31, 1991 and
     1992, respectively.

     Patents:

     Patents were recorded in the Acquisition at their estimated fair value on 
     that date. Amortization is calculated using a straight-line basis over an 
     estimated life of ten years, which is the shorter of the term remaining
     under the patent or the related life cycle of the product covered by the
     patent. Accumulated amortization was $29,162 and $54,158 at December 31,
     1991 and 1992, respectively.

     ------------------------------------------
     
     Revenue Recognition:

     Revenue is recognized upon shipment of the product to the customer.

     Research and Development:

     Research and development expenditures are charged to operations as 
     incurred.

     Advertising Costs:

     Advertising costs are charged to operations as incurred. Advertising costs 
     were $51,583 and $75,357 in 1991 and 1992, respectively.

     Income Taxes:

     The individual partners report their proportionate share of the
     Partnership's net income or loss for income tax purposes. Accordingly, no
     provision for U.S. federal and state income taxes has been provided in
     these financial statements. Taxes on the foreign subsidiary are based on
     the local tax rates, and are determined using the liability method for
     calculating deferred income taxes and are included in the consolidated
     results of operations. The foreign deferred income tax assets and
     liabilities as of December 31, 1991 and 1992 were not material.

4.   Note Payable to Bank:
     --------------------

     In May 1992, the Partnership obtained a working capital line of credit from
     a bank. The line of credit agreement provided for borrowings of 80% of
     eligible domestic accounts receivable and 60% of eligible international
     accounts receivable not to exceed $1,000,000. The borrowings bore interest
     at the bank's prime rate plus 1.5% (7.5% as of December 31, 1992).

     Borrowings under the line of credit agreement were collateralized by
     substantially all the assets of the Partnership and are subject to certain
     restrictive covenants regarding minimum cash flows, profitability, tangible
     net worth, current ratios and debt ratios. The Partnership was not in
     compliance with two covenants at December 31, 1992. The Partnership had
     borrowed $100,000 against this line as of December 31, 1992 and this amount
     was repaid in 1993.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1.   Partnership

     Sunflex, L.P. (the Partnership) was a limited partnership organized under
     the state laws of California in October 1990 and commenced operations on
     November 1, 1990, concurrent with the purchase of the operating assets of
     an existing business. The general partner was Micromesh Corporation. The
     Partnership was formed to manufacture, sell and distribute micromesh and
     glass filters for cathode ray tube terminals.

     The Partnership's manufacturing facilities are maintained by its 
     wholly-owned subsidiary, Sunflex Ireland Limited in Sligo, Ireland. The 
     subsidiary was responsible for manufacturing the Partnership's products.

     The Partnership was funded by Micromesh Corporation, as the general
     partner, contributing $20,000 in cash and the limited partners contributing
     $1,980,000 in cash.

     The Partnership agreement prescribed that taxable income or loss shall be
     allocated 40% to the general partner and 60% to the limited partners
     equally in proportion to the amount of their respective capital
     contributions as of the last day of such taxable year.

     Cash available for distribution, as determined by the general partner, was
     allocated 1% to the general partner and 99% to the limited partners equally
     in proportion to the amount of their respective capital contributions until
     each of them has received cumulative distributions equal to their
     respective initial contributions. Thereafter, distributions would be made
     40% to the general partner and 60% to the limited partners equally in
     proportion to the amount of their respective capital contributions as of
     the date on which such distribution is being made.

     Effective October 31, 1994, the Partnership was purchased by Southwall
     Technologies Inc. (Southwall) for approximately $500,000, which will only
     be paid from the Partnership's operating income, if any, over the four year
     period ending in 1998. The Partnership was dissolved upon purchase by
     Southwall and is now operated as a subsidiary of Southwall.

2.   Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

     Financial Statement Presentation

     The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the
     Partnership and its wholly owned subsidiary (see Note 1). All significant
     intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
     FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION
     The U.S. dollar is considered to be the functional currency for the
     Partnership's foreign operation. Accordingly, nonmonetary assets and
     liabilities have been translated into U.S. dollars at a historical rate;
     monetary assets and liabilities have been translated into U.S. dollars
     using the exchange rate at the balance sheet date, and revenues and
     expenses have been generally translated into U.S. dollars at the weighted
     average exchange rate during the period. Foreign currency transaction gains
     and losses, as well as the effects of translation are included in the
     accompanying statements of operations.

     CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS
     The Partnership considers all highly liquid investments with maturities of
     three months or less from date of purchase to be cash equivalents.

     CONCENTRATION OF CREDIT RISK
     The Partnership's cash and cash equivalents were on deposit with a local
     U.S. and an Irish financial institution. These deposits bear the credit
     risk associated with the financial institutions.

     Foreign accounts receivable comprised 70% of total receivables at December
     31, 1993. At December 31, 1993, three international distributors accounted
     for 16%, 14% and 11% of total accounts receivable, respectively. One
     international distributor represented 19% of total revenues for the year
     ended December 31, 1993.

     The Partnership sells and licenses its products to companies across many
     industries, directly and through distributors and value-added resellers.
     The Partnership generally does not require collateral and performs ongoing
     credit evaluations of its customers. The Partnership maintains an allowance
     for credit losses and such losses have been within management's
     expectations.

     INVENTORIES
     Inventories are stated at the lower of weighted average cost (which
     approximates first-in, first-out basis) or market.

     PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT
     Property and equipment are recorded at cost. Depreciation is generally
     provided over five years for machinery and equipment and over seven years
     for furniture and fixtures. Tooling, which is maintained overseas, is
     depreciated on a straight-line basis over three years. Upon the disposition
     of fixed assets, the cost and related accumulated depreciation are removed
     from the accounts and the resulting gain or losses are included in
     operations.

     Organization Costs

     Organization costs are amortized on a straight-line basis over five years. 
     Accumulated amortization was $27,000 at December 31, 1993.

     Patents

     Patents were recorded in the 1990 acquisition at their estimated fair value
     at that time. Amortization is calculated using a straight-line basis over

                    PRO FORMA COMBINED FINANCIAL INFORMATION
                             INTRODUCTORY STATEMENT


          Effective October 31, 1994, pursuant to a Purchase Agreement among
Southwall Technologies Inc. (the "Company"), Southwall-Sunflex, Inc. (a wholly-
owned subsidiary of the Southwall), Sunflex, L.P. ("Sunflex") and the Sunflex
Partners dated October 25, 1994, the Company, through its wholly-owned
subsidiary, Southwall-Sunflex, Inc. purchased all of the outstanding partnership
interests in Sunflex, a California limited partnership.  The Company acquired
Sunflex for an aggregate purchase price equal to the net book value of Sunflex,
approximately $500,000, which will be fully paid over the next four calendar
years only if Sunflex's operating income meets or exceeds $800,000.  Partial
payments may be made based on a formula and the amount, if any, of operating
income.  The acquisition was accounted for as a purchase.

          Sunflex assembles and markets aftermarket mesh, glass and film anti-
reflective filters primarily for personal computer monitors.

          On March 1, 1995, the Company filed its Annual Report on Form 10-K for
the year ended December 31, 1994.  The consolidated balance sheet as of December
31, 1994 included in the aforementioned Form 10-K includes Southwall-Sunflex,
Inc. and, accordingly, a pro forma combined balance sheet will not be presented
in this Current Report on Form 8-K.

          The following unaudited pro forma combined statements of operations
give effect to the acquisition of Sunflex by Southwall as if the acquisition had
taken place as of the beginning of the periods presented.  The unaudited pro
forma combined statements of operations for the years ended December 31, 1993
and 1994, give effect to the combination by combining the results of operations
of the Company for the year ended December 31, 1993 and 1994, with the results
of operations of Sunflex for the years ended December 31, 1993 and 1994.  The
results of operations of Sunflex for the two-month period ended December 31,
1994 are included in the results of operations of the Company for the year ended
December 31, 1994.  The unaudited pro forma combined statements of operations do
not necessarily indicate the operating results that would have been achieved had
the transaction been in effect as of the beginning of the periods presented and
should not be construed as representative of future operations.

NOTE 1.  Several of the positions at Sunflex have been eliminated as a result of
the acquisition, including the positions of the president, controller and an
international sales manager.  These positions are redundant with those already
in existence at the Company and the Company will provide these functions with no
increase in their existing staff.

NOTE 2.  At the time of the acquisition, the Company moved the Sunflex
operations to the Company's existing space in order to save facility costs and
better utilize existing space.  The new facilities occupied by the Sunflex
operations are less expensive than those vacated by Sunflex.

NOTE 3.  Sunflex incurred outside accounting and legal services that will be
significantly reduced as a result of the acquisition.

NOTE 4.  The Company will amortize the negative goodwill of $105,000 associated
with the transaction over a period of three years, resulting in reduced general
and administrative costs.
