Note 3 - Commitments:
- - -------------------- 

During the first quarter of 1996, the Company and SONY Corporation signed an
Addendum #1 to Supply Agreement.  Under the terms of the amended agreement,
among other things, SONY has agreed to increase its minimum order of anti-
reflective film beginning July 1, 1997 and extending through December 31, 2000,
and Southwall has agreed to install any necessary additional manufacturing
capacity by July 1, 1997.

The Company is currently in the process of leasing and equipping a new facility
for the manufacturing of anti-reflective film.  The Company estimates that it
will cost approximately $14 million to equip this facility.  The Company is also
in negotiations with lending institutions to finance this expansion.

Results of Operations
- - ---------------------

Except for the historical information contained herein, the matters discussed in
this Form 10-Q Report are forward-looking statements that involve risks and
uncertainties, including those discussed below and in the Company's Annual
Report on Form 10-K.  Actual results may differ materially from those projected.
These forward-looking statements represent the Company's judgment as of the date
of the filing of this From 10-Q Report.  The Company disclaims, however, any
intent or obligation to update these forward-looking statements.

Nine Months Ended September 29, 1996 and October 1, 1995
- - --------------------------------------------------------

Net product sales increased to $31.3 million for the first nine months of 1996,
compared to $24.2 million for the similar period of 1995. Most of the increase
was due to $7.2 million of sales of anti-reflective film for the period compared
to $1.0 million for the similar period last year. In addition, net product sales
of energy conservation products increased by $3.4 million and net product sales
of electronics products, other than anti-reflective film, increased by
approximately $.2 million, more than offsetting a $2.1 million dollar decline in
silver reflector film sales and a $.6 million decrease in discontinued aerospace
product sales.

Cost of product sales for the three quarters of 1996 was 69% of net product
sales, compared to 71% for the similar period of 1995.  This percentage decrease
was primarily attributable to increased sales volumes, along with a favorable
product mix, particularly during the third quarter of 1996, and to the adverse
effect on cost of sales of the start up phase of the Company's new anti-
reflective film product during the third quarter of 1995. The above favorable
factors combined to more than off set the adverse impact on the first nine
months of 1996 of taking one of the production machines off line for part of the
third quarter for modifications intended to improve product quality and output.

Research and development expenses, as a percent of net product sales, were 6%
for the first nine months of 1996, compared to 7% for the similar period in
1995. The percentage decrease was primarily attributable to the increase in net
product sales. The absolute dollar increase in 1996 was primarily attributable
to higher new product development.

Selling, general and administrative expenses, as a percent of net product sales,
decreased to 20% in the first nine months of 1996, from 22% for the similar
period in 1995. The percentage decrease was primarily attributable to the
increase in net product sales.  The absolute dollar increase from $5.3 million
in 1995 to $6.2 million in 1996, is attributable to increased sales and
marketing expenses associated with the introduction of new products and
expansion into the Pacific Rim.

Interest income (expense) net, decreased in the first nine months of 1996
compared to the similar period of 1995 due primarily to losses realized on sales
of short term investments during the second quarter of 1995, and reductions in
long term debt, partly offset by a decrease in money invested in 1996.

As a result of the factors discussed above, the Company reported pre-tax income
of $1.9 million for the first nine months of 1996, compared to pre-tax income of
$.3 million for the similar period in 1995.

                                       8

Effective March 31, 1996, the Company terminated its lease of equipment and
facilities in Southern California to laminate glass products.  The Company
continues to market its California Series(TM) clear solar shading laminated
glass products, which are being laminated by a sub-contractor, but no longer
markets other laminated products.

The termination of this lease and discontinuance of the marketing of certain
products, as well as the discontinuance of the aerospace product lines discussed
above, had no adverse effect on operating results and is not expected to have
any adverse effect on future operating results.

Three Months Ended September 29, 1996 and October 1, 1995
- - ---------------------------------------------------------

Net product sales increased to $9.9 million for the third quarter of 1996,
compared to $9.3 million for the similar period of 1995. The increase was due
primarily to a $1.0 million increase in sales of anti-reflective film and a $.5
million increase in net product sales of energy conservation products, which
more than offset a $.7 million dollar decline in silver reflector product sales
and a $.2 million decrease in electronics product sales, other than anti-
reflective film.

Cost of product sales for the third quarter of 1996 was 67% of net product
sales, compared to 74% for the similar period of 1995. This percentage decrease
was primarily attributable to increased sales volumes, along with a favorable
product mix, and to the adverse effect on cost of sales of the start up phase of
the Company's new anti-reflective film product during the third quarter of 1995.
The above favorable factors combined to more than offset the adverse impact on
the third quarter 1996 of taking one of the production machines off line for
part of the quarter for modifications intended to improve product quality and
output.

Research and development expenses, as a percent of net product sales, were 7%
for the third quarter of 1996, compared to 5% for the similar period in 1995.
The percentage and absolute dollar increases in 1996 were primarily attributable
to higher new product development.

Selling, general and administrative expense, as a percent of net product sales,
increased to 20% in the third quarter of 1996, from 18% for the similar period
in 1995. The percentage increase and the absolute dollar increase from $1.7
million in 1995 to $2.0 million in 1996, is primarily attributable to increased
sales and marketing expenses associated with the introduction of new products
and expansion into the Pacific Rim.

As a result of the factors discussed above, the Company reported pre-tax income
of $.6 million for the third quarter of 1996, compared to pre-tax income of $.3
million for the similar period in 1995.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
- - -------------------------------

At September 29, 1996, the Company's net working capital was $11.1 million
compared with $9.7 million at December 31, 1995. The Company has financed itself
through cash flow from operations and its existing cash and cash equivalent
balances.

From December 31, 1995, to September 29, 1996, cash and cash equivalent balances
decreased by $.2 million, while accounts receivable increased by $2.6 million.
The increase in accounts receivable is primarily attributable to the 

                                       9
<PAGE>
 
increase in net revenues from $9.1 million in the fourth quarter of 1995 to $9.9
million in the third quarter of 1996, and due to higher shipments occurring
during the later portion of the quarter.

Additions to property and equipment were approximately $1.4 million during the
third quarter of 1996, including $1.1 million toward equipping a new facility,
to be dedicated to the production of anti-reflective product.  The Company
anticipates total capital expenditures of approximately $2.5 million during 1996
for general replacements and discretionary improvements of current facilities.
The Company has also issued purchase orders totaling $5.6 million as part of
total anticipated commitments of approximately $14 million to equip a new
facility to be dedicated to the production of anti-reflective product and to
fulfill the supply requirements of the supply agreement.

At September 29, 1996, the Company had $3.3 million of cash and short-term
investments and a $6 million revolving line of credit, which is subject to
certain financial covenants, and which expires in February 1997, but may be
extended for additional one year terms with the bank's approval.  As of
September 29, 1996, there were no borrowings under this line of credit.
Existing working capital and cash generated from operations are expected to be
adequate to satisfy the Company's capital and operating requirements of existing
facilities at least through 1996.

The Company is seeking financing for the planned new facility;  however, there
is no assurance that the Company will be successful.

                          PART II  OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1    Legal Proceedings and Other Matters

The Company has been named a defendant in a lawsuit filed on April 5, 1996 by
one of its customers in the United States District Court for the Eastern
District of New York.  The lawsuit in federal court alleges certain contractual
violations by the Company and seeks relief in an aggregate amount in excess of
$35 million.  The Company believes that this lawsuit is without merit and
intends to defend against it vigorously.

In addition, the Company is involved in certain other legal actions arising in
the ordinary course of business.  The Company believes, however, that none of
these actions, either individually or in the aggregate, will have a material
adverse effect on the Company's business or its consolidated financial position
