     (Unaudited)

     Note 1 - Interim Period Reporting:
     ----------------------------------

     While the information presented in the accompanying consolidated financial
     statements is unaudited, it includes all adjustments (consisting only of
     normal recurring adjustments) which, in the opinion of management, are
     necessary to present fairly the Company's financial position and results of
     operations, and changes in financial position as of the dates and for the
     periods indicated.

     Certain information and footnote disclosures normally contained in
     financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted
     accounting principles have been condensed or omitted.  It is suggested that
     these consolidated financial statements be read in conjunction with the
     financial statements contained in the Company's Form 10-K for the year
     ended December 31, 1995. The results of operations for the interim periods
     presented are not necessarily indicative of the operating results of the
     full year.

     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 planning and negotiating to equip 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.

     Item 2 -  Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
     -------------------------------------------------------------------------
     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.

     Three Months Ended March 31, 1996 and December 31, 1995
     -------------------------------------------------------

     Net product sales increased to $10.5 million for the first three months of
     1996, compared to $6.7 million for the similar period of 1995. Most of the
     increase was due to $2.4 million of sales of our new anti-reflective film.
     In addition, net product sales of energy conservation products was up by
     $2.1 million and electronics products increased by approximately $.1
     million, more than offsetting a $.7 million dollar decline in silver
     reflector film sales and a $.2 million decrease in our discontinued
     aerospace product sales.

     Cost of product sales for the first quarter of 1996 was 70% of net product
     sales, compared to 69% for the similar period of 1995.  This percentage
     increase was primarily attributable to some operational problems that
     occurred during the quarter.  These problems have been corrected and are
     not expected to recur.

     Research and development expenses, as a percent of net product sales, were
     5% for the first three months of 1996, compared to 9% for the similar
     period in 1995. The percentage decrease was primarily attributable to the
     increase in net product sales.  The absolute dollar decrease in 1996 is
     attributable to lower new product development.

     Selling, general and administrative expense, as a percent of net product
     sales, decreased to 20% in the first three months of 1996, from 28% for the
     similar period in 1995. The percentage decrease was primarily attributable
     to the increase in net product sales.  The absolute dollar increase from
     $1.8 million in 1995 to $2.1 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, decreased in 1996 compared to 1995 due primarily to a
     decrease in monies invested.

     As a result of the factors discussed above, the Company reported a pre-tax
     profit of $.5 million for the first three months of 1996, compared to a
     pre-tax loss of ($.4 million) for the similar period in 1995.

     The Company believes that it must continue to increase revenues to improve
     profitability.  Although the Company is seeking to expand existing
     applications, to develop new applications and to expand international
     marketing and sales efforts, there can be no assurance that the Company
     will be able to increase revenues and remain profitable.

     Effective March 31, 1996, the Company terminated its lease of equipment and
     facilities in Southern California to laminate glass located.  The Company
     will continue to market its California Series/TM/ clear solar shading
     laminated glass products, which will be laminated by a sub-contractor, but
     will no longer market 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
     line discussed above, is not expected to have any adverse effect on future
     financial results.

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

     At March 31, 1996, the Company's net working capital was $10.5 million
     compared with $9.7 million at December 31, 1995. The Company has financed
     itself through cash flow from operations and its existing cash balances.

                                       8
<PAGE>
 
     From December 31, 1995, to March 31, 1996, cash and short-term investments
     decreased by $.5 million, while accounts receivable increased by $1.9
     million. The increase in accounts receivable is primarily attributable to
     the increase in net revenues from $9.1 million in the fourth quarter of
     1995 to $10.6 million in the first quarter of 1996, most of which occurred
     during the later portion of the quarter.

     Additions to property and equipment were approximately $.6 million during
     the first quarter of 1996.  The Company anticipates total capital
     expenditures of approximately $2.5 million during 1996 for general
     replacements and discretionary improvements of current facilities.  The
     Company also anticipates making commitments for an amount yet to be
     determined, but believed to be 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 a supply agreement.

     At March 31, 1996, the Company had $3.1 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
     March 31, 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 or results of operations.

     This Addendum #1 to Supply Agreement (the "Addendum") is entered into as of
April 1, 1996 by and between Southwall Technologies Inc. ("Seller"), a Delaware 
corporation, and Sony Corporation ("Buyer"), a Japanese corporation.

     WHEREAS, the parties have entered into a Supply Agreement dated October 23,
1995 (the "Supply Agreement") where Seller agreed to supply to Buyer and Buyer 
agreed to purchase from Seller certain Products (as defined in the Supply 
Agreement); and

     WHEREAS, subject to the conditions set forth herein, the parties wish to 
enter into this Addendum to, among other things, establish certain pricing and 
minimum quantity requirements for the Products during an extended term of the 
Supply Agreement.

     NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the covenants contained
in this Addendum and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and 
sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as 
follows:

1.  Buyer shall pay Seller a surcharge equal to one dollar per square foot 
($1/sq. ft.) of Products that are shipped to Buyer commencing on April 1, 1996 
and continuing until four million dollars (US$4,000,000) has been paid by Buyer.

2.  Seller shall expand its production capacity so it can be capable of 
manufacturing and supplying at least three million square feet (3,000,000 
sq.ft.) of Product per year by June 30, 1998.

3.  During the period from April 1, 1996 to June 30, 1997, Section 2.4 of the 
Supply Agreement entitled "Best Efforts" shall be deleted in its entirety and 
the following new Section 2.4 shall be substituted in lieu thereof:

     2.4  Best Efforts.  In addition to, and not in limitation of Section 2.2 of
          ------------

its best efforts to sell and market Products for the Computer Monitor CRT 
Applications throughout the world. Without limiting the foregoing, Buyer expects
to and will use best efforts to purchase the following amounts of Products: (i) 
two million square feet (2,000,000 sq. ft.) for the period beginning on October 
23, 1995 and ending on April 22, 1997, (ii) three hundred fifty thousand square

4.  The parties have agreed that during the term of the Supply Agreement, which

amended herein) shall govern the sale and purchase of Products commencing as of 
July 1, 1997 and continuing until December 31, 2000 and continuing thereafter 
for successive one year terms until terminated by either party as set forth 
herein (the "Extended Term"), provided, however, that nothing contained in this 
Section 4 shall govern the sale and purchase of Products prior to July 1, 1997.

    a.  Prices payable by Buyer for the Products during the Extended Term shall

of the Products applicable during every quarter which begins with January, 
April, July and October respectively shall be determined during the immediately 
preceding quarter in accordance with the Pricing Formula as set forth on Exhibit
A to this Addendum. Seller shall submit to Buyer the documents which prove 
Seller's manufacturing cost of the Products so that the parties hereto can 
determine the applicable unit price of the Products in accordance with the 
Pricing Formula. In no event shall the price of the Products exceed seven 
dollars per square foot (US$7/sq. ft.).
    
    b.  Section 2.2 of the Supply Agreement entitled "Exclusivity" shall be 
deleted in its entirety.

    c.  Section 2.4 of the Supply Agreement entitled "Best Efforts" shall be 
deleted in its entirety and the following new Section 2.4 shall be substituted 
in lieu thereof:

(3,000,000 sq. ft.) for each twelve (12) month period thereafter.

        (b)  In the event that Buyer fails to purchase from Seller such

insurance costs actually paid; sales, use, value-added and similar taxes and
duties and similar governmental assessments on Products as shipped) for the
quantities of the Products in excess of three million square feet (3,000,000 sq.
ft.).

         (b)  In the event that Seller sells the products, which are 
substantially similar to the Products, to third parties during the Extended
