It is suggested that these unaudited condensed consolidated financial
statements be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes
thereto included in the Registrant's 2005 annual report on Form 10-K.

(2) In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed
consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments, consisting of
only a normal and recurring nature, necessary to present fairly the

(6) Stock-Based Compensation Plans

At June 30, 2006, the Company had two stock option plans, a restricted plan
and an employee stock purchase plan, which are described more fully below.
Effective January 1, 2006, the Company adopted Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 123 (revised), "Share-Based Payment" (SFAS 123(R))
utilizing the modified prospective approach. Prior to the adoption of SFAS
123(R) we accounted for stock option grants under the recognition and
measurement principles of APB Opinion No. 25 (Accounting for Stock Issued
to Employees) and related interpretations,


-5-
and accordingly, recognized no compensation expense for stock option grants
in net income. Readers should refer to Note 6 of our consolidated financial
statements in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the calendar year ended
December 31, 2005, for additional information related to these stock-based
compensation plans.

Under the modified prospective approach, SFAS 123(R) applies to new awards
and to awards that were outstanding on December 31, 2005. Under the
modified prospective approach, compensation cost recognized in the second
quarter of 2006 includes compensation cost for all share-based payments
granted prior to, but not yet vested as of December 31, 2005, based on the
grant-date fair value estimated in accordance with the original provisions
of SFAS 123, and compensation cost for all share-based payments granted
subsequent to December 31, 2005, based on the grant-date fair value
estimated in accordance with the provisions of SFAS 123 (R). Prior periods
were not restated to reflect the impact of adopting the new standard.

As a result of adopting SFAS 123(R) on January 1, 2006, the Company's
income before taxes, net income and basic and diluted earnings per share
for the second quarter and six months ended June 30, 2006, were $1,749,795,
$1,324,894, and $.01 lower, and $3,469,890, $2,247,815 and $.01 lower,
respectively, than if we had continued to account for stock-based
compensation under APB Opinion No. 25 for our stock option grants.
Compensation cost capitalized as part of inventory as of June 30, 2006, was
$91,611. The cumulative effect of the change in accounting for forfeitures
was not material.

We receive a tax deduction for certain stock option exercises during the
period the options are exercised, generally for the excess of the price at
which the options are sold over the exercise price of the options. Prior to
the adoption of SFAS 123(R), we reported all tax benefits resulting from
the exercise of stock options as operating cash flows in our consolidated
statement of cash flows. In accordance with SFAS 123(R), for the six months
ended June 30, 2006, we revised our consolidated statement of cash flows
presentation to report the tax benefits from the exercise of stock options
as financing cash flows. For the six months ended June 30, 2006, $176,803
of tax benefits from the exercise of stock options and vested restricted
stock were reported as financing cash flows rather than operating cash
flows.

Net cash proceeds from the exercise of stock options and employee stock
purchases were $2,497,767 and $8,838,736, respectively, for the second
quarter and six months ended June 30, 2006. The actual income tax benefit
realized from stock option exercises and vested restricted stock are
$209,568 and $904,879, respectively, for the same periods.

The following table illustrates the effect on net income and earnings per
share if the Company had applied the fair value recognition provisions of
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 123, "Accounting for
Stock-Based Compensation," to stock-based employee compensation for the
second quarter and six months ended June 30, 2005:

</TABLE>

On March 30, 2005, in response to the required implementation of SFAS No.
123(R), the Company accelerated the vesting of current "under water" stock
options. As a result of the vesting acceleration, approximately 2.3 million
shares became immediately exercisable and an additional approximate $13.6
million of proforma stock-based employee compensation expense was
recognized in the first quarter 2005, that otherwise would have been
recognized as follows: $6.1 million in 2005; $4.5 million in 2006; $2.2
million in 2007 and $0.8 million in 2008-2009. The objective of this


-6-
Company action was primarily to avoid recognizing compensation expense
associated with these options in future financial statements, upon the
Company's adoption of SFAS 123(R), effective January 1, 2006. In addition,
the Company also received shareholder approval of an amendment to its
Employee Stock Option Plan to allow the grant of non-qualified stock
options.

EMPLOYEE STOCK OPTION PLAN

In 2004, a new Employee Stock Option Plan was approved, replacing the prior
plan. The Company may grant options for up to 18,000,000 shares under its
new Employee Stock Option Plan. The Company has granted options on
5,001,353 shares (net of shares from canceled options) under the new plan
through June 30, 2006. Under the plans, the option exercise price equals
the stock's market price on date of grant. The options vest after one to
five years, and expire after three to seven years.

The fair value of each option grant in the Employee Stock Option Plan was
estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model
with the following weighted-average assumptions for the indicated periods:

<TABLE>

Weighted-average grant-date fair value $ 3.90 $ 6.17 $ 4.27 $ 5.81
</TABLE>

The Company determined that all employee groups exhibit similar exercise
and post-vesting termination behavior to determine the expected term.

As of June 30, 2006, there was $9,374,634 of unrecognized compensation cost
related to share-based payments which is expected to be recognized over the
vesting period with a weighted-average period of 4.4 years.

A summary of the status of the Company's employee stock option plan for the
second quarter and six months ended June 30, 2006, and changes during the
same periods, are presented in the table and narrative below:

approved, replacing a prior plan. The Company has sold a total of 384,248
shares under the new plan through June 30, 2006. The Company sells shares
at 85% of the stock's market price at date of purchase. The weighted
average fair value of shares sold in 2006 was approximately $13.31.

RESTRICTED STOCK PLAN

The Company has a Restricted Stock Plan covering 1,000,000 shares of common
stock that was approved, the purpose of which is to permit grants of
shares, subject to restrictions, to key employees of the Company as a means
of retaining and rewarding them for long-term performance and to increase
their ownership in the Company. Shares awarded under the plan entitle the
shareholder to all rights of common stock ownership except that the shares
may not be sold, transferred, pledged, exchanged or otherwise disposed of
during the restriction period. The restriction period is determined by a
committee, appointed by the Board of Directors, but may not exceed ten
years. The Company has 533,990 shares outstanding as of June 30, 2006, and
95,610 shares were granted with a restriction period of five years at a
market prices ranging from $14.00 to $17.09 year to date. As of June 30,
2006, the Company has unearned stock-based compensation of $5,168,728
associated with these restricted stock grants. The unearned stock-based
compensation related to these grants is being amortized to compensation
expense over the applicable restriction periods.

(7) 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
investments and foreign currency translation adjustments. Comprehensive
income was as follows:

Six Months Ended $53,731,609 $49,922,035
</TABLE>

(8) The decrease in common stock during the six months ended June 30, 2006, was
primarily due to the repurchase of 10,004,629 shares for approximately
$151,750,000, partially offset by the issuance of 789,299 shares,
respectively, of the Company's common stock under its stock-based
compensation plans. The Company has also recorded a $0.09 per share cash
dividend in the first and second quarters. The second quarter dividend of
approximately $13,215,000, was declared on May 25, 2006, and was paid on
July 21, 2006.

(10) In July 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued
Interpretation No. 48, "Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes." This
interpretation clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes
recognized in an enterprise's financial statements in accordance with FASB
statement No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes." Interpretation No. 48
prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the
financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or
expected to be taken in a tax return. This Interpretation also provides
guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties,
accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition. This
Interpretation is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15,
2006. The adoption of Interpretation No. 48 is not expected to have any
significant effect on the Company's consolidated financial position or
results of operations.

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

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS:

SECOND QUARTER 2006 VERSUS SECOND QUARTER 2005

Net Sales. Net sales for the second quarter of 2006 increased by
approximately $10,007,000, or 8%, when compared with the second
quarter last year. Net sales of the Company's automotive auto-dimming
mirrors increased by approximately $9,925,000, or 8%, in the second
quarter of 2006, when compared with the second quarter last year,
primarily due to a 10% increase in auto-dimming mirror unit shipments
from approximately 3,095,000 in the second quarter of 2005 to
3,408,000 in the current quarter. This unit increase primarily
reflected the increased penetration of interior and exterior
auto-dimming mirrors on 2006 model year vehicles. Unit shipments to
customers in North America for the current quarter increased by 10%
compared with the second quarter of the prior year, primarily due to
the takeover business at General Motors previously disclosed. Mirror
unit shipments for the current quarter to automotive customers outside
North America increased by 10% compared with the second quarter in
2005, primarily due to increased penetration at certain European and
Asian automakers. Net sales of the Company's fire protection products
increased 1% for the current quarter versus the same quarter of last
year.

Cost of Goods Sold. As a percentage of net sales, cost of goods sold
increased from 63% in the second quarter of 2005 to 64% in the second
quarter of 2006. This percentage increase primarily reflected the
impact of automotive customer price reductions.

Operating Expenses. Engineering, research and development expenses for
the current quarter increased 13% and approximately $1,164,000, when
compared with the same quarter last year, primarily reflecting stock
option expensing, additional staffing, engineering and testing for new
product development, including mirrors with additional electronic
features, and stock option expensing. Excluding stock option expense
of $619,000, E, R & D expenses increased by 6% when comparing the
current quarter to the same quarter last year. Selling, general and
administrative expenses increased 7% and approximately $502,000, for
the current quarter, when compared with the second quarter of 2005.
This increased expense primarily reflected stock option expensing.
Excluding stock option expense of $556,000, S, G & A expenses
decreased by 1% when comparing the current quarter to the same quarter
last year, primarily due to decreased state taxes.

Total Other Income. Total other income for the current quarter
increased by approximately $2,418,000 when compared with the second
quarter of 2005, primarily due to increased interest income due to
higher interest rates and realized gains on the sale of equity
investments.

Taxes. The provision for income taxes varied from the statutory rate
during the current quarter, primarily due to Extra Territorial Income
Exclusion Act exempted taxable income, domestic production deduction,
tax-exempt investment income and stock option expense.

Net Income. The Company's net income for the current quarter increased
by $1,195,000, or 5%, when compared with the same quarter last year.
Excluding stock option expense of $1,325,000, the Company's net income
increased 10%.

SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2006, VERSUS SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2005

Net Sales. Net sales for the six months ended June 30, 2006, increased
by $21,386,000, or 8%, when compared with the same period last year.
Net sales of the Company's automotive auto-dimming mirrors increased
by $21,195,000, or 9%, as auto-dimming mirror shipments increased by
11% from approximately 6,125,000 in the first six months of 2005 to
6,800,000 units in the first six months of 2006. This increase
primarily reflected the increased penetration of interior auto-dimming
mirrors on 2006 model year vehicles. Unit shipments to customers in
North America increased by 9%, primarily due to the takeover business
at General Motors. Mirror shipments to automotive customers outside
North America increased by 13%, primarily due to increased penetration
at certain European and Asian automakers. Net sales of the Company's
fire protection products increased 2%.


-11-
Cost of Goods Sold. As a percentage of net sales, cost of goods sold
increased from 62% in the six months ended June 30, 2005, to 65% in
the six months ended June 30, 2006, primarily reflecting automotive
customer price reductions and stock option expense. Each factor is
estimated to have impacted cost of goods sold by approximately 1-2
percentage points.

Operating Expenses. For the six months ended June 30, 2006,
engineering, research and development expenses increased approximately
$3,346,000, and increased from 6% to 7% of net sales, when compared to
the same period last year, primarily due to stock option expense and
additional staffing, engineering and testing for new product
development, including mirrors with additional electronic features.
Excluding stock option expense of $1,277,000, E, R & D expenses
increased by 6% for the current period versus the same period last
year. Selling, general and administrative expenses increased
approximately $1,453,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2006, but
remained at 5% of net sales, when compared to the same period last
year, primarily reflecting stock option expense and the continued
expansion of the Company's overseas offices. Excluding stock option
expense of $1,076,000, S, G & A expense increased by 3% versus the
same period in the prior year.

Total Other Income. Other income for the six months ended June 30,
2006, increased $5,783,000 when compared to the same period last year,
primarily due to increased interest income due to higher interest
rates and realized gains on the sale of equity investments.

Taxes. The provision for income taxes varied from the statutory rate
during the six months ended June 30, 2006, primarily due to Extra
Territorial Income Exclusion Act exempted taxable income, domestic
production deduction, tax-exempt investment income and stock option
expense.

Net Income. The Company's net income for the six months ended June 30,
2006, increased $1,633,000, or 3%, when compared to the same period
last year, primarily due to the increased net sales. Excluding stock
option expense of $2,248,000, the Company's net income increased by
7%.

FINANCIAL CONDITION:

Cash flow from operating activities for the six months ended June 30,
2006, slightly increased to $71,090,000, compared to $70,680,000, for
the same period last year, primarily due to an increase in net income.
Capital expenditures for the six months ended June 30, 2006, increased
to $30,181,000, compared to $28,729,000 for the same period last year,
including the new facility construction.

The Company has completed the construction of its fourth automotive
manufacturing facility and a new technical center will be completed in
the summer of 2006. The Company has invested approximately $35-40
million for the new facilities during 2004-2006, which has been funded
from its cash and cash equivalents on hand.

Accounts receivable as of June 30, 2006, increased approximately
$9,584,000 compared to December 31, 2005. The increase was primarily
due to the higher sales level, as well as monthly sales within each
quarter.

Management considers the Company's working capital and long-term
investments totaling approximately $563,628,000 as of June 30, 2006,
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 next year and for the foreseeable
future.

On October 8, 2002, the Company announced a share repurchase plan,
under which it may purchase up to 8,000,000 shares (post-split) based
on a number of factors, including market conditions, the market price
of the Company's common stock, anti-dilutive effect on earnings,
available cash and other factors that the Company deems appropriate.
On July 20, 2005, the Company announced that it had raised the price
at which the Company may repurchase shares under the existing plan. On
May 16, 2006, the Company announced that the Company's Board of
Directors had authorized the repurchased of an additional eight
million shares under the plan. During the quarter ended March 31,
2003, the Company repurchased 830,000 shares (post-split) at a cost of
approximately $10,247,000. During the quarter ended September 30,
2005, the Company repurchased approximately 1,496,000 shares at a cost
of approximately $25,215,000. During the quarter ended March 31, 2006,
the Company repurchased approximately 2,804,000 shares at a cost of
approximately $47,145,000. During the quarter ended June 30, 2006, the
Company repurchased approximately 7,201,000 shares at a cost of
approximately $104,604,000. Approximately 3,669,000 shares remain
authorized to be repurchased under the plan.


-12-
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES:

The preparation of the Company's consolidated condensed financial
statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting
principles generally accepted in the Unites States, requires
management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts
reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. On an
on-going basis, management evaluates these estimates. Estimates are
based on historical experience and on various other assumptions that
are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of
which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of
assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other
sources. Historically, actual results have not been materially
different from the Company's estimates. However, actual results may
differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

The Company has identified the critical accounting policies used in
determining estimates and assumptions in the amounts reported in its
Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal
year ended December 31, 2005. Management believes there have been no
changes in those critical accounting policies, except as noted below.

STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

The Company accounts for stock-based compensation in accordance with
the fair value recognition provisions of SFAS No. 123(R). The Company
utilizes the Black-Scholes model, which requires the input of
subjective assumptions. These assumptions include estimating (a) the
length of time employees will retain their vested stock options before
exercising them ("expected term"), (b) the volatility of the Company's
common stock price over the expected term, (c) the number of options
that will ultimately not complete their vesting requirements
("forfeitures") and (d) expected dividends. Changes in the subjective
assumptions can materially affect the estimate of fair value of
stock-based compensation and consequently, the related amounts
recognized on the consolidated condensed statements of operations.

TRENDS AND DEVELOPMENTS:

During the first quarter of 2005, the Company negotiated an extension
to its long-term agreement with General Motors (GM) in the ordinary
course of the Company's business. Under the extension, the Company
will be sourced all of the interior auto-dimming rearview mirrors
programs for GM and its worldwide affiliates through August 2009, and
includes all but two low-volume models that had previously been
awarded to a competitor under a lifetime contract. The new business
also includes the GMT360 program, which is the mid-size truck/SUV
platform that previously did not offer auto-dimming mirrors. The new
GM programs will be transferred to the Company by no later than the
2007 model year. We currently estimate that this new business
represents incremental auto-dimming mirror units in the range of
500,000 on an annualized basis. The Company also negotiated a price
reduction for the GM OnStar(R) feature in its auto-dimming mirrors,
effective January 1, 2005, in connection with GM's stated plan to make
their OnStar system standard across their vehicle models over the next
several years.

During the quarter ended September 30, 2005, the Company negotiated an
extension to its long-term agreement with DaimlerChrysler in the
ordinary course of the Company's business. Under the extension, the
Company will be sourced virtually all Mercedes and Chrysler interior
and exterior auto-dimming rearview mirrors through December 2009.

The Company currently expects that auto-dimming mirror unit shipments
will be approximately 0-5% higher in the third quarter and 5-10%
higher in the calendar year of 2006, compared with the same periods in
2005. These estimates are based on light vehicle production forecasts
in the regions to which the Company ships product, as well as the
estimated option rates for its mirrors on prospective vehicle models.

The Company utilizes the light vehicle production forecasting services
of CSM Worldwide, and CSM's current forecasts for light vehicle
production for calendar 2006 are approximately 15.8 million units for
North America, 20.3 million for Europe and 14.3 million for Japan and
Korea.


-13-
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. During the quarter ended
June 30, 2006, there were no material changes in the risk factors
previously disclosed in the Company's report on Form 10-K for the
fiscal year ended December 31, 2005.

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 worldwide
markets that could reduce demand for its products.

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 or yield improvements,
engineering and purchasing cost reductions, and increases in unit
sales volume. In addition, profit pressures at certain automakers are
resulting in increased cost reduction efforts by them, including
requests for additional price reductions, decontenting certain
features from vehicles, and warranty cost-sharing programs, which
could adversely impact the Company's sales growth and margins. The
Company also continues to experience some manufacturing yield issues
and pressure for select raw material cost increases. The automotive
industry is experiencing increasing financial and production stresses
due to continuing pricing pressures, lower domestic production levels
due to loss of market share, supplier bankruptcies, and commodity
material cost increases.

Automakers have been experiencing increased volatility and uncertainty
in executing planned new programs which have, in some cases, resulted
in cancellations or delays of new vehicle platforms, package
reconfigurations and inaccurate volume forecasts. This increased
volatility and uncertainty has made it more difficult for the Company
to forecast future sales and effectively utilize capital, engineering,
research and development, and human resource investments.

The Company does not have any significant off-balance sheet
arrangements or commitments that have not been recorded in its
consolidated financial statements.

On March 30, 2005, in response to the required implementation of SFAS
No. 123(R) as disclosed in Note 10, the Company accelerated the
vesting of current "under water" stock options. As a result of the
vesting acceleration, approximately 2.3 million shares became
immediately exercisable and an additional approximate $13.6 million of
proforma stock-based employee compensation expense was recognized in
the first quarter. The objective of this Company action is primarily
to avoid recognizing compensation expense associated with these
options in future financial statements, upon the Company's adoption of
SFAS No. 123(R). In addition, the Company has also received
shareholder approval of an amendment to its Employee Stock Option Plan
to allow the grant of non-qualified stock options.

On April 1, 2005, the Company announced a two-for-one stock split
effected in the form of a 100 percent common stock dividend for each
outstanding share, issued to shareholders on May 6, 2005. The
ex-dividend date was May 9, 2005.

On October 1, 2002, Magna International acquired Donnelly Corporation,
the Company's major competitor for sales of automatic-dimming rearview
mirrors to domestic and foreign vehicle manufacturers and their mirror
suppliers. The Company sells certain automatic-dimming rearview mirror
sub-assemblies to Magna Donnelly. To date, the Company is not aware of
any significant impact of Magna's acquisition of Donnelly upon the
Company.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

The information called for by this item is provided under the caption
"Trends and Developments" under Item 2 - Management's Discussion and
Analysis of Results of Operations and Financial Condition.


-14-
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

The management, with the participation of its principal executive
officer and principal financial officer, has evaluated the
effectiveness, as of June 30, 2006, of the Company's "disclosure
controls and procedures," as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e)
and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended
(the "Exchange Act"). Based upon that evaluation, the Company's
management, including the principal executive officer and principal
financial officer, concluded that the Company's disclosure controls
and procedures, as June 30, 2006, were effective to provide reasonable
assurance that information required to be disclosed by the Company in
the reports filed or submitted by it under the Exchange Act is
recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods
specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission's rules and forms,
and to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be
disclosed by the Company in such reports is accumulated and
communicated to the Company's management, including its principal
executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate to
allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

In the ordinary course of business, the Company may routinely modify,
upgrade, and enhance its internal controls and procedures for
financial reporting. However, there was no change in the Company's
"internal control over financial reporting" (as such term is defined
in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that occurred
during the quarter ended June 30, 2006, that has materially affected,
or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company's internal
control over financial reporting.

SAFE HARBOR STATEMENT:

Statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contain
forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities
Exchange Act, as amended, that are based on management's belief,
assumptions, current expectations, estimates and projections about the
global automotive industry, the economy, the impact of stock option
expenses on earnings, the ability to leverage fixed manufacturing
overhead costs, unit shipment growth rates and the Company itself.
Words like "anticipates," "believes," "confident," "estimates,"
"expects," "forecast," "likely," "plans," "projects," and "should,"
and variations of such words and similar expressions identify
forward-looking statements. These statements do not guarantee future
performance and involve certain risks, uncertainties, and assumptions
that are difficult to predict with regard to timing, expense,
likelihood and degree of occurrence. These risks include, without
limitation, employment and general economic conditions, the pace of
economic recovery in the U.S. and in international markets, the pace
of automotive production worldwide, the types of products purchased by
customers, competitive pricing pressures, currency fluctuations, the
financial strength of the Company's customers, the mix of products
purchased by customers, the ability to continue to make product
innovations, the success of newly introduced products (e.g.
SmartBeam), and other risks identified in the Company's filings with
the Securities and Exchange Commission. Therefore actual results and
outcomes may materially differ from what is expressed or forecasted.
Furthermore, the Company undertakes no obligation to update, amend, or
clarify forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new
information, future events, or otherwise.
