Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

(1)Basis of Presentation

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included herein have been prepared by the Company, 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 Company believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. It is suggested that these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's 2024 annual report on Form 10-K. 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 Company as of March 31, 2025, and the results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods presented.

(2)Adoption of New Accounting Standards

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures. Under this ASU, public business entities must annually “(1) disclose specific categories in the rate reconciliation and (2) provide additional information for reconciling items that meet a quantitative threshold (if the effect of those reconciling items is equal to or greater than 5 percent of the amount computed by multiplying pretax income (or loss) by the applicable statutory income tax rate).” This ASU is effective on a prospective basis for the Company in the fiscal year ending December 31, 2025 and will result in additional disclosures being included in the consolidated financial statements for the Company's Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025.

In March 2024, the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") issued Final Rule No. 33-11275, "The Enhancement and Standardization of Climate-Related Disclosures for Investors." If such rule becomes effective, the rule will require disclosure of climate-related information outside of the audited financial statements and disclosure in the footnotes to such financial statements addressing specified financial statement effects of severe weather events and other natural conditions above certain financial thresholds, certain carbon offsets and renewable energy credits or certificates, if material. Such disclosure requirements were scheduled to begin phasing in for fiscal years beginning on or after January 1, 2025. On April 4, 2024, the SEC exercised its discretion to voluntarily stay the effective date of the final rules pending completion of certain judicial review. The SEC recently signaled that it may not move forward with these rules. The Company continues to evaluate the impact of adopting these rules and to monitor the status of the related legal challenges and position of the SEC with respect to the foregoing.

In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU No. 2024-03, "Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses (Subtopic 220-40)." The ASU requires public business entities to disaggregate, in a tabular presentation, certain income statement expenses into different categories, such as purchases of inventory, employee compensation, depreciation, and intangible asset amortization. The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2027. Companies have the option to apply the guidance either on a retrospective or prospective basis, and early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting this ASU on the consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. In January 2025, the FASB issued ASU No. 2025-01, "Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income - Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Clarifying the Effective Date." This ASU amends the effective date of ASU 2024-03 to clarify that all public business entities are required to adopt the guidance in annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027.

(3)Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets

Goodwill represents the cost of an acquisition in excess of the fair values assigned to identifiable net assets acquired. The Company recorded Goodwill of: $307.4 million as part of the HomeLink®acquisition in 2013;

$3.7 million as part of the acquisition of Vaporsens, Inc. ("Vaporsens") in 2020; $0.2 million as part of the acquisition of Air-Craftglass Production BV ("Air-Craftglass") in 2020; $1.0 million as a part of the acquisition of Argil, Inc. ("Argil") in 2020; $2.0 million as part of the acquisition of Guardian Optical Technologies ("Guardian") in 2021; $26.7 million as part of the acquisition of eSight Corporation ("eSight") in the fourth quarter of 2023; and $4.2 million as part of the acquisition of GalvanEyes LLC in the fourth quarter of 2024 (see Note 16). The carrying value of Goodwill as of both March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024 was $340.7 million as set forth in the table below:

Carrying Amount
Beginning balance as of January 1, 2025$340,668,927
Acquisitions—
Divestitures—
Impairments—
Other—
Balance as of March 31, 2025$340,668,927
Gross carrying value at March 31, 2025$344,333,631
Accumulated impairment charges(3,664,704)
Net carrying value at March 31, 2025$340,668,927

In addition to annual impairment testing, which is performed as of the first day of the fourth quarter, the Company continuously monitors for events and circumstances that could negatively impact the key assumptions in determining fair value of goodwill or other intangible assets, thus resulting in the need for interim impairment testing, including long-term revenue growth projections, profitability, discount rates, recent market valuations from transactions by comparable companies, volatility in the Company's market capitalization, and general industry, market and macroeconomic conditions. No such events or circumstances that might negatively impact the key assumptions were observed in the first quarter of 2025 and, as such, nothing indicated the need for interim impairment testing.

The Company also acquired In-Process Research & Development ("In-Process R & D") as part of the acquisitions of Vaporsens; Air-Craftglass; Argil; and Guardian, each of which has been previously disclosed.

The patents and intangible assets and related change in carrying values are set forth in the tables below.

Amortization expense on patents and intangible assets was approximately $4.6 million during the three months ended March 31, 2025, compared to approximately $4.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024.

Excluding the impact of any future acquisitions, the Company estimates amortization expense for the year ending December 31, 2025 to be approximately $14.5 million, and for each of the years ending December 31, 2026, December 31, 2027, December 31, 2028, and December 31, 2029 to be approximately $3 million.

(4)Investments

Available for sale securities

The Company follows the provisions of Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, for its financial assets and liabilities, and for its non-financial assets and liabilities subject to fair value measurements. ASC 820 provides a framework for measuring the fair value of assets and liabilities. This framework is intended to provide increased consistency in how fair value determinations are made under various existing accounting standards that permit, or in some cases, require estimates of fair-market value. This standard also expanded financial statement disclosure requirements with respect to a company’s use of fair-value measurements, including the effect of such measurements on earnings. The cost of securities sold is based on the specific identification method.

The Company determines the fair value of its government securities, asset-backed securities, municipal bonds, and corporate bonds by utilizing monthly valuation statements that are provided by its broker. The broker determines the investment valuation by utilizing the bid price in the market and also refers to third party sources to validate valuations, and as such are classified as Level 2 assets.

The Company's certificates of deposit are classified as available for sale and are considered as Level 1 assets. These investments are carried at cost, which approximates fair value.

As of March 31, 2025, the Company held a total of 6,463,808 shares of VOXX International Corporation ("VOXX") Class A Common Stock. The VOXX shares held by the Company as of March 31, 2025 were publicly traded, had a readily determinable fair market value, and were considered Level 1 assets. The Company accounted for the VOXX investment in accordance with ASC 323 –Investments – Equity Method and Joint Venture, with the election to use the Fair Value Option under ASC 825 -Fair Value prior to April 1, 2025. As a result of this election, changes in fair value of the shares have been recorded in Investment income (loss), net, in the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income. The Company recorded $0.8 million of gain during the three months ended March 31, 2025, and $7.3 million of loss during the three months ended March 31, 2024 relating to mark to market adjustments in investment income related to VOXX.

On April 1, 2025, the Company, completed its previously announced merger of VOXX pursuant to that certain Agreement and Plan of Merger dated as of December 17, 2024, acquiring all of the issued and outstanding shares of VOXX common stock not already owned by the Company for a purchase price of $7.50 per share (see Note 16).

Technology Investments

The Company also periodically makes strategic investments in the non-marketable debt or equity securities of other non-consolidated third parties ("Technology Investments"). Such Technology Investments totaled approximately $163.0 million as of March 31, 2025, of which $152.0 million and $11.0 million are recorded in long-term investments and short-term investments, respectively, on the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet. Such Technology Investments totaled approximately $155.9 million as of December 31, 2024, of which $149.9 million and $6.0 million are recorded in long-term investments and short-term investments, respectively, on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet. Depending on the form of investment, and the degree of influence the Company has over the investee, the Company primarily accounts for the Technology Investments in accordance with ASC 321, Investments - Equity Securities or ASC 323, Investments – Equity Method and Joint Venture. The Company accounts for equity securities in non-controlled affiliates through which the Company exercises significant influence but does not have control over the investee under the equity method, with the Company’s share of the earnings or losses of non-controlled affiliates recognized within Other (loss) income, net, in the Company's accompanying Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income. All other Technology Investments that the Company holds are primarily accounted for under the measurement alternative of ASC 321. Under the measurement alternative, the carrying value is measured at cost, less any impairment, plus or minus changes resulting from observable price changes in orderly transactions for identical or similar investments of the same issuer.

Assets or liabilities that have recurring fair value measurements are shown below as of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024.

(6)Earnings Per Share

The Company has unvested share-based payment awards with a right to receive non-forfeitable dividends, which are considered participating securities under ASC 260, Earnings Per Share. The Company allocates earnings to participating securities and computes earnings per share using the two-class method. Under the two-class method, net income per share is computed by dividing net income allocated to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. In applying the two-class method, net income is allocated to both common shares and participating securities based on their respective weighted average shares outstanding for the period. For a period of net loss, net loss is not allocated to participating securities.

The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted net income per common share under the two-class method for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and March 31, 2024:

(7)Stock-Based Compensation Plans

As of March 31, 2025, the Company hadtwo equity incentive plans, which include the Gentex Corporation 2019 Omnibus Incentive Plan ("2019 Omnibus Plan"), and an employee stock purchase plan. Those plans and any prior material amendments thereto have previously been approved by shareholders.

The 2019 Omnibus Plan provides for the potential awards to: i) employees; and ii) non-employee directors of the Company or its subsidiaries, which potential awards may be stock options (both incentive stock options and non-qualified stock options), appreciation rights, restricted stock awards and restricted stock units, performance share awards and performance units, and other awards that are stock-based, cash-based or a combination of both. The 2019 Omnibus Plan replaced the Company's Employee Stock Option Plan, Second Restricted Stock Plan, and Amended and Restated Non-Employee Director Stock Option Plan (the "Prior Plans"), which were also approved by shareholders. Any existing awards previously granted under the Prior Plans remain outstanding in accordance with their terms and are governed by the Prior Plans as applicable.

Readers should refer to Note 5 of the consolidated financial statements in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the calendar year ended December 31, 2024, for additional information related to the Prior Plans.

The Company recognized total compensation expense for share-based payments of $8,682,020 for the three months ended March 31, 2025. The Company recognized compensation expense for share-based payments of $10,487,261 for the three months ended March 31, 2024. A portion of the compensation cost for share-based payment awards is capitalized as part of inventory.

2019 Omnibus Incentive Plan

The purpose of the 2019 Omnibus Plan is to attract and retain employees, officers, and directors of the Company and its subsidiaries and to motivate and provide such persons incentives and rewards for performance. Pursuant to the terms of the 2019 Omnibus Plan, each type of award counts against the available shares based on a predetermined conversion rate (shown in the table below). As of March 31, 2025,12,036,966 share awards have been made under the Plan, resulting in 33,097,022 shares granted of the 45,000,000 total shares available to be issued under the Plan. The shares issued are presented net of shares from canceled/expired options and shares.

Employee Stock Options

Under the 2019 Omnibus Plan and the Employee Stock Option Plan, the option exercise price equals the stock’s market price on the date of grant. The options vest afterone tofive years and expire after five toten years. As of March 31, 2025, there was $4,796,530 of unearned compensation cost associated with stock options granted under the 2019 Omnibus Incentive Plan and the Employee Stock Option Plan, which is expected to be recognized over the remaining vesting periods.

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

Three Months Ended March 31,
20252024
Dividend Yield (1)1.62%1.64%
Expected volatility (2)25.60%28.29%
Risk-free interest rate (3)3.96%4.21%
Expected term of options (years) (4)4.144.14
Weighted-avg. grant date fair value$5.35$9.08
  1. Represents the Company’s estimated cash dividend yield over the expected term of option grant.

  2. Amount is determined based on analysis of historical price volatility of the Company’s common stock. The expected volatility is based on the daily percentage change in the price of the stock over a period equal to the expected term of the option grant.

  3. Represents the U.S. Treasury yield over the expected term of the option grant.

  4. Represents the period of time that options granted are expected to be outstanding. Based on analysis of historical option exercise activity, the Company has determined that all employee groups exhibit similar exercise and post-vesting termination behavior.

Restricted Shares

Restricted shares awarded under the 2019 Omnibus Plan and the Second Restricted Stock 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 the Compensation Committee, appointed by the Board of Directors, but may not exceedten years under the terms of such plans. As of March 31, 2025, the Company had unearned stock-based compensation of $55,170,475 associated with the restricted stock grants issued under the 2019 Omnibus Plan and the Second Restricted Stock Plan. The unearned stock-based compensation related to these grants is being amortized to compensation expense over the applicable restriction periods.

Compensation expense from restricted stock grants in the three months ended March 31, 2024 was $6,687,341.

Performance Shares

Performance shares awarded under the 2019 Omnibus Plan are considered performance condition awards as attainment is based on the Company's performance relative to pre-established metrics. The fair value of such performance share awards was determined using the Company's average closing stock price on the twenty days preceding the date of grant. The expected attainment of the metrics for these awards is then analyzed each reporting period, and the related expense is adjusted based on expected attainment, if the then expected attainment differs from previous expectations. The cumulative effect on current and prior periods of a change in expected attainment is recognized in the period of change.

As of March 31, 2025, the Company had unearned stock-based compensation of $15,983,706 associated with these performance share grants. The unearned stock-based compensation related to these grants is being amortized to compensation expense over the applicable performance periods.

As part of its objective of attracting and retaining management to fulfill the Company's strategic goals, the Compensation Committee recommended and the Board approved on February 16, 2023, a retention grant of performance share awards ("PSAs"). In addition to the retention of management, the PSAs have been granted to further align management goals with those of the Company's shareholders. For that reason, the PSAs have been granted with performance criteria and will be based upon achievement of the Company's relative total shareholder return ("TSR") over afour-year period (2023-2026), against a predetermined peer group. The grant date fair value of PSAs with TSR targets was determined using a Monte Carlo simulation. Compensation expense related to these retention grants in the three months ended March 31, 2025 was $453,025. Compensation expense related to these retention grants in the three months ended March 31, 2024 was $422,846.
