GENTEX CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (1) The condensed consolidated financial statements included herein have been prepared by the Registrant, without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations, although the Registrant believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. It is suggested that these condensed consolidated financial statements be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in the Registrant's 2000 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 financial position of the Registrant as of September 30, 2001, and December 31, 2000, and the results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods presented. In June 1998 and June 2000, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS No. 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities, and SFAS No. 138, Accounting for Certain Derivative Instruments and Certain Hedging Activities-an amendment of SFAS No. 133, respectively, which establish accounting and reporting standards for all derivative instruments and hedging activities. These statements require an entity to recognize all derivatives as either assets or liabilities in the balance sheet and measure those investments at fair value. Adoption of these pronouncements on January 1, 2001, had minimal effect on the Company's consolidated results of operations, financial position and financial disclosures. (3) Inventories consisted of the following at the respective balance sheet dates: <TABLE> <CAPTION> September 30, 2001 December 31, 2000 ------------------ ----------------- <S> <C> <C> Raw materials $ 8,823,117 $ 7,362,544 Work-in-process 1,835,166 1,488,326 Finished goods 5,000,123 3,236,643 ------------- ------------- $15,658,406 $12,087,513 ============= ============= </TABLE> (4) 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 certain investments and foreign currency translation adjustments. Comprehensive income was as follows: <TABLE> <CAPTION> September 30, 2001 September 30, 2000 ------------------ ------------------ <S> <C> <C> Quarter Ended $9,532,007 $17,821,122 Six Months Ended 42,532,492 55,498,007 </TABLE> (5) The increase in common stock and additional paid-in capital during the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2001, is attributable to the issuance of 238,584 and 768,517 shares, respectively, of the Company's common stock under its stock-based compensation plans. (6) The Company currently manufactures electro-optic products, including automatic-dimming rearview mirrors for the automotive industry and fire protection products for the commercial building industry: <TABLE> <CAPTION> Quarter Ended September 30, Nine Months Ended September 30, Revenue: 2001 2000 2001 2000 ---- ---- ---- ---- <S> <C> <C> <C> <C> Automotive Products $68,644,031 $66,211,955 $214,176,956 $206,036,240 Fire Protection Products 5,472,152 5,722,281 16,410,601 16,530,457 ------------- ------------- -------------- -------------- Total $74,116,183 $71,934,236 $230,587,557 $222,566,697 ============= ============= ============== ============== Operating Income: Automotive Products $17,530,876 $18,833,792 $ 57,474,616 $ 64,695,351 Fire Protection Products 1,123,282 1,150,809 3,338,580 3,145,770 ------------- ------------- -------------- -------------- Total $18,654,158 $19,984,601 $ 60,813,196 $ 67,841,121 ============= ============= ============== ============== </TABLE> -5-
GENTEX CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION RESULTS OF OPERATIONS: THIRD QUARTER 2001 VERSUS THIRD QUARTER 2000 Net Sales. Net sales for the third quarter of 2001 increased by approximately $2,182,000, or 3%, when compared with the third quarter last year. Net sales of the Company's automotive mirrors increased by $2,432,000, or 4%, as automatic mirror unit shipments increased by 5% from approximately 1,621,000 in the third quarter of 2000 to 1,704,000 in the current quarter. This increase reflected the commencement of mirror shipments for several mid-size vehicle models and increased penetration of interior electrochromic Night Vision Safety(TM) (NVS(R)) Mirrors on 2002 model year vehicles manufactured overseas. Unit shipments to customers in North America decreased by 2%, primarily due to reduced North American automotive production schedules after the September 11 terrorist attacks, partially offset by the commencement of mirror shipments for several new mid-size vehicles/models. Mirror unit shipments to automotive customers outside North America increased by 17% compared with the third quarter in 2000, primarily due to increased interior mirror shipments to European and Asian-Pacific automakers. Net sales of the Company's fire protection products decreased 4%, primarily due to lower sales of certain of the Company's smoke detectors. Cost of Goods Sold. As a percentage of net sales, cost of goods sold increased from 60% in the third quarter of 2000 to 62% in the third quarter of 2001. This increased percentage primarily reflected annual customer price reductions to two major automotive customers and the continued excess plant capacity primarily associated with the Company's third automotive mirror manufacturing facility expansion last year. Operating Expenses. Research and development expenses increased approximately $821,000, and increased from 6% to 7% of net sales, when compared with the same quarter last year, primarily reflecting additional staffing, engineering and testing for new product development, including mirrors with additional electronic features. Selling, general and administrative expenses increased approximately $391,000, but remained unchanged at 6% of net sales, when compared with the third quarter of 2000. This increased expense primarily reflected the expansion of the Company's overseas sales and engineering offices. Other Income - Net. Other income decreased by approximately $43,000 when compared with the third quarter of 2000, primarily due to declining interest rates on investments, partially offset by higher income from customer reimbursable engineering and tooling projects. NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2001 VERSUS NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2000 Net Sales. Net sales for the nine months ended September 30, 2001, increased by approximately $8,021,000, or 4%, when compared with the same period last year. Net sales of the Company's automotive mirrors also increased by 4%, as automatic mirror unit shipments increased by 5% from approximately 5,052,000 in the first nine months of 2000 to 5,307,000 in the first nine months of 2001. This increase primarily reflected increased penetration on foreign 2001 and 2002 model year vehicles for interior and exterior electrochromic Night Vision Safety(TM) (NVS(R)) Mirrors. Shipments to customers in North America decreased by 6%, primarily due to reduced industry production levels. Mirror unit shipments to automotive customers outside North America increased by 25% compared with the first nine months in 2000, primarily due to increased interior and exterior mirror sub-assembly shipments to European and Asian-Pacific automakers. Net sales of the Company's fire protection products decreased 1%, primarily due to lower sales of certain of the Company's smoke detectors. Cost of Goods Sold. As a percentage of net sales, cost of good sold increased from 58% in the first nine months of 2000, to 61% for the comparable period in 2001. This increased percentage primarily reflected automotive customer price reductions, some shifts in mirror product mix, and the continued excess plant capacity primarily associated with the Company's third automotive manufacturing facility expansion last year. -6-
NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2001 VERSUS NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2000 (CONT.) Operating Expenses. For the nine months ended September 30, 2001, research and development expenses increased approximately $2,917,000, and increased from 6% to 7% of net sales, when compared with the same period last year, primarily reflecting additional staffing, engineering and testing for new product development, including mirrors with additional electronic features. Selling, general and administrative expenses increased approximately $1,454,000, but remained at 6% of net sales, when compared with the first nine months of 2000. This increased expense primarily reflected the expansion of the Company's overseas automotive sales and engineering offices to support future growth opportunities. Other Income - Net. Other income for the nine months ended September 30, 2001, increased by approximately $518,000 when compared with the first nine months of 2000, primarily due to higher investable fund balances, partially offset by declining interest rates. FINANCIAL CONDITION: Management considers the Company's working capital and long-term investments totaling approximately $348,196,000 at September 30, 2001, 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 foreseeable future. TRENDS AND DEVELOPMENTS: 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. There were no significant changes in the market risks reported in the Company's 2000 10-K report. 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. Industry forecasts of future market conditions have become more uncertain as a result of the terrorist attacks on September 11, 2001. The Company utilizes the forecasting services of J.D. Power and Associates, and its current forecasts for light vehicle production for calendar 2002 are approximately 15.9 million for North America, and 16.0 million for Western Europe. In addition to price reductions over the life of its long-term agreements, 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 improvements, engineering and purchasing cost reductions, and increases in unit sales volume. In addition, the Company continues to experience from time to time some pressure for select raw material cost increases. The Company currently supplies NVS(R) Mirrors to DaimlerChrysler AG and General Motors Corporation under long-term agreements. The long-term supply agreement with DaimlerChrysler AG runs through the 2003 Model Year, while the GM contract is through the 2004 Model Year for inside mirrors. ITEM 3.
