NEW ENERGY TECHNOLOGIES, INC.
(Formerly “Octillion Corp.”)
(A Development Stage Company)

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

November 30, 2010
(Expressed in U.S. Dollars)
(Unaudited)


Note 1.  Organization and Nature of Operations

New Energy Technologies, Inc. (the “Company”) was incorporated in the State of Nevada on May 5, 1998, under the name “Octillion Corp.” On December 2, 2008, the Company amended its Articles of Incorporation to effect a change of name to New Energy Technologies, Inc.  The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Sungen Energy, Inc. (“Sungen”), Kinetic Energy Corporation (“KEC”), Octillion Technologies Limited (“Octillion Technologies”), and New Energy Solar Corporation (“New Energy Solar”).

Sungen was incorporated on July 11, 2006 in the State of Nevada and has no assets and no liabilities.

KEC was incorporated on June 19, 2008 in the State of Nevada and has no assets and no liabilities.

Octillion Technologies was incorporated on April 11, 2007 in the Province of British Columbia, Canada for providing administrative services to the Company’s Canadian office. The Company ceased to conduct business in Canada on August 31, 2008 and closed this office. As a result, the Company dissolved Octillion Technologies and eliminated all intercompany balances, effective December 1, 2008.

New Energy Solar was incorporated on February 9, 2009 in the State of Florida and has no assets and no liabilities.

On August 22, 2007, the Company spun off its wholly-owned biotechnology subsidiary, MicroChannel Technologies Corporation (“MicroChannel”) with the shareholders of the Company. The net assets and results of operations of MicroChannel of the prior period have been reclassified as discontinued operations.

Since inception, the Company has been a technology incubator focused on the identification, acquisition, development and eventual commercialization of emerging technologies initially in the biotech and subsequently in the alternative energy sectors. However, commencing in August 2007 with the spinoff of the Company’s then wholly-owned subsidiary, MicroChannel Technologies Corporation, the Company elected to focus all of its resources on alternative energy technologies.  Accordingly, effective December 2, 2008 the Company changed its name to “New Energy Technologies, Inc.” so as to more accurately reflect its focus on alternative energy technologies.  The Company’s strategy is to develop new technologies and, where warranted, acquire rights to obtain licenses to technologies and products that are being developed by third parties, primarily universities and government agencies, through sponsored research and development agreements.

The Company conducts its current operations through its two wholly-owned subsidiaries:

 
·
KEC; and
 
·
New Energy Solar


The Company is currently focusing its development efforts on two technologies, namely:

 
·
MotionPower™ Technology for capturing and converting the kinetic energy of moving vehicles to generate electricity; and

 
·
SolarWindow™ Technology which enables see-thru glass windows to generate electricity by applying electricity-generating coatings to their glass surfaces.

Note 2.  Going Concern Uncertainties

The Company is a development stage company, has not generated any revenues, has an accumulated deficit of $7,925,132 as of November 30, 2010, and does not have positive cash flows from operating activities.  The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America, which contemplates continuation of the Company as a going concern, which is dependent upon the Company’s ability to establish itself as a profitable business.
 
Due to the start-up nature of the Company’s business, the Company expects to incur additional losses as it continues to develop its technologies. To date, the Company’s cash flow requirements have primarily been met by a private placement of common stock and warrants for net proceeds of $3,395,955 on February 12, 2008 and proceeds received from the exercise of warrants and stock options.  Management recognizes that in order to meet the Company’s capital requirements, and continue to operate, additional financing will be necessary.  The Company expects to raise additional funds through private or public equity investments in order to support existing operations and expand the range and scope of its business operations. The Company will seek access to private or public equity but there is no assurance that such additional funds will be available for the Company to finance its operations on acceptable terms, if at all.  Furthermore, there is no assurance that the net proceeds received from any successful financing arrangement will be sufficient to cover cash requirements during the initial stages of the Company’s operations.  If the Company is unable to raise additional capital or generate positive cash flow, it is unlikely that the Company will be able to continue as a going concern.

In view of these conditions, the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is in substantial doubt and dependent upon achieving a profitable level of operations and on the ability of the Company to obtain necessary financing to fund ongoing operations. These consolidated financial statements do not give effect to any adjustments which will be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern and therefore be required to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in other than the normal course of business and at amounts different from those reflected in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.

Note 3.  Presentation of Interim Information

The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles accepted in the United States of America for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X.  Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for complete financial statements.  In the opinion of management, all adjustments (of a normal recurring nature) considered necessary for a fair presentation of the financial statements have been included. Operating results for the three months ended November 30, 2010 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ended August 31, 2011 or any other interim period.  For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s 2010 Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended August 31, 2010 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Note 4.  Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
 
Accounting Estimates
 
The preparation of the Company’s consolidated financial statements requires management to make estimates and use assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, and expenses.  These estimates and assumptions are affected by management’s application of accounting policies.   Critical accounting policies for the Company include accounting for research and development costs, accounting for stock-based compensation, and valuation of equity instruments. On an on-going basis, the Company evaluates its estimates.  Actual results and outcomes may differ materially from these estimates and assumptions.


Research and Development

Research and development costs represent costs incurred to develop the Company’s technology, including salaries and benefits for research and development personnel, allocated overhead and facility occupancy costs, supplies, equipment purchase and repair and other costs.  Research and development costs are expensed when incurred, except for nonrefundable advance payments for future research and development activities which are capitalized and recognized as expense as the related services are performed.

During the three months ended November 30, 2010 and 2009, the Company incurred $57,122 and $274,314 on research and development activities.  From inception (May 5, 1998) to November 30, 2010, the Company incurred $1,503,446 on research and development activities.

Stock-based Compensation
 
The Company measures all employee stock-based compensation awards using a fair value method on the date of grant and recognizes such expense in its consolidated financial statements over the requisite service period.  The Company uses the Black-Scholes pricing model to determine the fair value of stock-based compensation awards on the date of grant.  The Black-Scholes pricing model requires management to make assumptions regarding the warrant and option lives, expected volatility, and risk free interest rates. See “Note 9. Warrants” and “Note 10. Stock Options” for additional information on the Company’s stock-based compensation plans.
 
Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Fair value estimates of financial instruments are made at a specific point in time, based on relevant information about financial markets and specific financial instruments. As these estimates are subjective in nature, involving uncertainties and matters of significant judgment, they cannot be determined with precision.  Changes in assumptions can significantly affect estimated fair value.

The Company measures fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in an orderly transaction between market participants at the reporting date. The Company utilizes a three-tier hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in the valuation methodologies in measuring fair value:

Level 1. Valuations based on quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that an entity has the ability to access.  The Company has no assets or liabilities valued with Level 1 inputs.

Level 2. Valuations based on quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities, quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.  The Company has no assets or liabilities valued with Level 2 inputs. 

Level 3. Valuations based on inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities. Liabilities valued with Level 3 inputs are described below in “Note 9. Warrants.”
 
The carrying value of cash and cash equivalents, accounts payable, and accrued liabilities approximate their fair value because of the short-term nature of these instruments and their liquidity. The fair value of the Company’s Class F Callable Warrants was $697,405 at November 30, 2010, using the Black-Scholes model (see “Note 9. Warrants”).  Management is of the opinion that the Company is not exposed to significant interest or credit risks arising from these financial instruments.


Recent Accounting Pronouncements
 
The Company reviews new accounting standards as issued.  Although some of these accounting standards issued or effective after the end of the Company’s previous fiscal year may be applicable to the Company, it has not identified any standards that it believes merit further discussion.  The Company believes that none of the new standards will have a significant impact on its consolidated financial statements.

Note 5.  Net Income (Loss) Per Share

Basic net income (loss) per share is computed by dividing the net income (loss) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net income (loss) per share is computed by dividing the net income (loss) by the weighted average number of common and dilutive common equivalent shares outstanding during the period.

During the three months ended November 30, 2010, the Company recorded a net loss.  Excluded from the computation of diluted net loss per share for the three months ended November 30, 2010, because their effect would be anti-dilutive, are stock options and warrants to acquire 3,433,356 shares of common stock with a weighted-average exercise price of $0.80 per share.

During the three months ended November 30, 2009, stock options and warrants to purchase 3,238,500 shares of common stock with a weighted-average exercise price of $1.26 per share were not included in the diluted earnings per share computation as the effects would have been anti-dilutive.

For purposes of earnings per share computations, shares of common stock that are issuable at the end of a reporting period are included as outstanding.

Following is the computation of basic and diluted net income (loss) per share for the three months ended November, 2010 and 2009:

Terminated Research Agreements

UIUC Sponsored Research Agreement

On August 25, 2006, through its wholly-owned subsidiary, Sungen, the Company entered into a Sponsored Research Agreement (“UIUC Sponsored Research Agreement”) with the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign (“UIUC”) for the development of a new patent-pending technology to integrate films of silicon nanoparticle material on glass substrates, acting as photovoltaic solar cells that have the potential to convert normal home and office glass windows into ones capable of converting solar energy into electricity, with limited loss of transparency and minimal changes in manufacturing infrastructure (the “UIUC Silicon Nanoparticle Energy Technology”). On July 23, 2007, the Company through its wholly owned subsidiary, Sungen, amended its Sponsored Research Agreement with the UIUC.  Pursuant to this amended Sponsored Research Agreement, the Company agreed to provide an additional $203,617 to the previously awarded amount of $219,201 for a total of $422,818, to the University of Illinois in order to accelerate the development of films of silicon nanoparticle material composed of nanosilicon photovoltaic solar cells that have the potential to convert solar radiation to electrical energy.


The UIUC Sponsored Research Agreement expired on August 22, 2008.  As of this date, the Company had advanced a total of $266,709 to the University of Illinois pursuant to the terms of the UIUC Sponsored Research Agreement.  Pursuant to the terms of the UIUC Sponsored Research Agreement, the Company was to advance an additional $156,109 to the University of Illinois, which is included in other accrued liabilities at November 30, 2010 and August 31, 2010.  However, the Company has not made the advance pending determination as to whether funds previously paid to UIUC under the terms of the UIUC Sponsored Research Agreement have been fully expended.  The Company is of the opinion that to the extent these funds were not expended they are refundable to the Company.

The Company did not record any research and development expense pursuant to the UIUC Sponsored Research Agreement during either of the three month periods ended November 30, 2010 and 2009. During the period from inception (May 5, 1998) to November 30, 2010, the Company recorded $422,818 as research and development expense pursuant to the UIUC Sponsored Research Agreement.

Oakland Sponsored Research Agreement

On August 18, 2008, the Company entered into a two-year Sponsored Research Agreement (“Oakland Sponsored Research Agreement”) with scientists at Oakland University to further the development of its photovoltaic technology for generating electricity on transparent glass windows.

Veryst Agreement

On November 4, 2008, the Company, through its wholly-owned subsidiary, KEC, entered into an agreement (the “Veryst Agreement”) with Veryst Engineering LLC (“Veryst”) relating to the development of a car and truck energy harvester. The Veryst Agreement continues until terminated by either Veryst Engineering LLC or KEC. Pursuant to Rule 24b-2 the Company submitted a request for confidential treatment of certain portions of the Veryst Agreement, relating to the payment terms, scope of work and the milestone terms of the license agreement under the Veryst Agreement.  The Company’s request was granted on November 25, 2008.  Accordingly, certain terms and provisions of the Veryst Agreement have not been disclosed.

On September 9, 2009, the Company entered into two additional agreements with Veryst whereby Veryst performed additional testing of its vehicle energy harvester and advanced prototyping as well as continued development of a commercial scale truck energy harvester. 

During the three months ended November 30, 2010 and 2009, the Company recorded $10,565 and $123,640, respectively, as research and development expense pursuant to the agreements with Veryst entered into on September 9, 2009.  During the period from inception (May 5, 1998) to November 30, 2010, the Company recorded $313,657 as research and development expense pursuant to these same agreements.

On July 6, 2010, the Company entered into another agreement with Veryst whereby Veryst performed services associated with improving system energy capture and conversion, and enhancing electrical power production.


During both of the three months ended November 30, 2010 and 2009, the Company did not record any research and development expense pursuant to the agreement with Veryst entered into on July 6, 2010.  During the period from inception (May 5, 1998) to November 30, 2010, the Company recorded $48,000 as research and development expense pursuant to the same agreement.
 
The Company continues to utilize Veryst, on a consulting basis, to further test, calibrate, and develop its MotionPower™ Technology.
 
Sigma Design Agreement

On May 1, 2009, KEC entered into a consulting agreement with Sigma Design Company (“Sigma Design”) whereby Sigma Design provided ongoing engineering and product development services relating to the development of the Company’s MotionPower™ Technology.  On August 25, 2009, KEC entered into an additional consulting agreement with Sigma Design whereby Sigma Design continued to provide engineering services relating to the development of the Company’s MotionPower™ Technology. On June 25, 2010, KEC entered into another consulting agreement with Sigma Design whereby Sigma Design will develop a modified prototype for the MotionPower™ Technology, which will deliver more output than the original prototype. The agreements between KEC and Sigma Design are collectively referred to herein as the (“Sigma Design Agreements”).  Each of the Sigma Design Agreements may be terminated by either Sigma Design or the Company upon 30 days written notice to the other party.  The Company has also engaged Sigma Design to conduct durability field tests of its MotionPower™ Technology.

During the three months ended November 30, 2010 and 2009, the Company recorded $26,423 and $120,778 as research and development expense pursuant to the Sigma Design Agreements and services provided for the durability field tests.  During the period from inception (May 5, 1998) to November 30, 2010, the Company recorded $292,694 as research and development expense pursuant to the Sigma Design Agreements and services provided for the durability field tests.

The Company continues to utilize Sigma Design, on a consulting basis, to further test, calibrate, and develop its MotionPower™ Technology.

Note 8. Capital Stock

Preferred Stock

At November 30, 2010 there were 1,000,000 shares of preferred stock (par value $0.10 per share) authorized, of which no shares were issued and outstanding.  The Board of Directors has the authority to issue such stock in one or more series, to fix the number of shares and to fix and determine the relative rights and preferences of the shares of any such series so established to the full extent permitted by the laws of the State of Nevada and the Articles of Incorporation.

Common Stock

On February 12, 2008, the Company consummated the sale of an aggregate of 3,675,000 shares of its common stock and Class F Callable Warrants to purchase up to an additional 3,675,000 shares of the Company’s common stock for aggregate gross proceeds of $3,675,000 pursuant to the terms of a Securities Purchase Agreement dated February 8, 2008 (the “2008 Private Placement”) with certain institutional and other accredited investors, as defined in Rule 501 of Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Investors”).  The Class F Callable Warrants are exercisable for a period of three years from the date of issuance at an initial exercise price of $1.25 per share. See “Note 9. Warrants” and “Note 12. Subsequent Events.”

The number of shares issuable upon exercise of the Class F Callable Warrants and the exercise price of the Class F Callable Warrants are adjustable in the event of stock splits, combinations and reclassifications, but not in the event of the issuance by the Company of additional securities, unless such issuance is at a price per share which is less than the then applicable exercise price of the Class F Callable Warrants (“Dilutive Issuance”), in which event then the exercise price shall be reduced and only reduced to equal the lower issuance price and the number of shares issuable upon exercise thereof shall be increased such that the aggregate exercise price payable thereunder, after taking into account the decrease in the exercise price, shall be equal to the aggregate exercise price prior to such adjustment.  The potential adjustment to the Class F Callable Warrants exercise price and number of underlying shares of common stock results in a settlement amount that does not equal the difference between the fair value of a fixed number of the Company’s common stock and a fixed exercise price.  Accordingly, the Class F Callable Warrants are not considered indexed to the Company’s own stock and therefore need to be accounted for as a derivative.  As of November 30, 2010 the Company has not sold any shares of common stock or common stock equivalents that would result in an adjustment to the exercise price or number of shares of common stock underlying the Class F Callable Warrants. See “Note 9. Warrants.”


The Class F Callable Warrants are callable by the Company, at a repurchase price of $0.001 per warrant, subject to certain conditions, after the earlier to occur of (i) the expiration of the then applicable hold periods for a cashless exercise under Rule 144 as promulgated pursuant to the Securities Act of 1933, as amended or (ii) the date the registration statement filed pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement is declared effective by the SEC, which was declared effective by the SEC on March 21, 2008, if New Energy Technologies, Inc.’s common stock, the volume weighted average price for each of 5 consecutive Trading Days exceeds $1.75.

Pursuant to the 2008 Private Placement and the Registration Rights Agreement, the Company and the Investors have made other covenants and representations and warranties regarding matters that are customarily included in financings of this nature. 

The Company engaged an agent (the “Agent”) to help in the fund raising efforts of the 2008 Private Placement.  The Agent was paid a total cash fee of 7% ($257,250) of the aggregate gross proceeds and Class F Callable Warrants to purchase 514,500 shares of the Company’s common stock valued at $642,980 and representing 7% of the total number of shares purchased by the Investors. In addition, the Agent was reimbursed $6,045 for expenses incurred on behalf of the Company.

At the time of grant, the fair value of the 4,189,500 Class F Callable warrants was $5,236,875, using the Black-Scholes Option Pricing Model with the following weighted average assumptions: dividend yield of 0%, expected volatility of 159.33%, risk-free interest rates of 4.76%, and expected lives of 3 years.  The proceeds received pursuant to the 2008 Private Placement allocated to the warrants were $2,337,885.

Note 9.  Warrants

Class F Callable Warrants

On February 12, 2008, the Company completed the 2008 Private Placement (see “Note 8. Capital Stock”).  Pursuant to the 2008 Private Placement and payment of a commission to an Agent, the Company issued 4,189,500 Class F Callable Warrants, each to purchase a share of common stock at $1.25 per share, expiring on February 12, 2011.  See “Note 8. Capital Stock - Common Stock” for additional disclosures regarding the terms and conditions related to the Class F Callable Warrants.

During the three months ended November 30, 2010, investors exercised 2,055,144 Class F Callable Warrants. On November 30, 2010, the Company received Notices of Exercise for 100,000 of the total Class F Callable Warrants exercised, but did not receive the related proceeds of $125,000 until December 1, 2010.  The Company recorded the $125,000 as Subscription Receivable at November 30, 2010.  As of November 30, 2010, there were 1,133,356 Class F Warrants outstanding and exercisable. See “Note 12. Subsequent Events.”


Class F Callable Warrant Liability

On September 1, 2009, the Company adopted guidance which is now part of ASC 815-40, Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity.  The Company determined that its Class F Callable Warrants contained a Dilutive Issuance provision.  As a result, the Company reclassified 3,188,500 of its Class F Callable Warrants to long-term warrant liability, resulting in a cumulative adjustment to accumulated deficit as of September 1, 2009 of $342,771.

The Company’s Class F Callable Warrants are considered derivative financial liabilities and are therefore required to be adjusted to fair value each quarter.

The Company has valued its warrant liability at November 30, 2010 using a Black-Scholes model (Level 3 inputs) containing the following assumptions:  dividend yield of 0%, expected volatility of 129.3%, risk-free interest rate of 0.17%, and expected term of 0.2 years.  The Company recorded a non-cash loss related to the Class F Callable Warrants of $689,346 during the three months ended November 30, 2010.  The Company does not intend to sell any shares of common stock or common stock equivalents at a price that is below the exercise price of Class F Callable Warrants, prior to their expiration date of February 12, 2011, which would result in an adjustment to the exercise price or number of shares of common stock underlying the Class F Callable Warrants.  Since the Company determined that the future probability of a Dilutive Issuance is deemed unlikely, it did not have a material impact on the fair value of the Class F Callable Warrants at November 30, 2010. See “Note 12. Subsequent Events.”
 
The following reconciles the warrant liability for the three months ended November 30, 2010:

Beginning Balance, September 1, 2010
  $ 8,059  
Change in fair value of warrant liability
    689,346  
Ending Balance, November 30, 2010
  $ 697,405  

Note 10. Stock Options

On October 10, 2006, the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of the Company adopted and approved the 2006 Incentive Stock Option Plan (the “2006 Stock Plan”) that provides for the grant of stock options to employees, directors, officers and consultants. The 2006 Stock Plan provides for the granting of stock options to purchase a maximum of 15,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock.  Stock options granted to employees under the Company’s 2006 Stock Plan generally vest over two to five years or as otherwise determined by the plan administrator. Stock options to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock expire no later than ten years after the date of grant.

The per share exercise price for each stock option is determined by the Board and may not be below fair market value on the date of grant.  The fair market value of the Company’s common stock is the closing price of the common stock as listed on the Over the Counter Bulletin Board (the “OTCBB”) on the date of grant or, if the Company’s common stock is not traded on the date of grant, the first day of active trading following the date of grant.

The Company measures all stock-based compensation awards using a fair value method on the date of grant and recognizes such expense in its consolidated financial statements over the requisite service period.  The grant date fair value of stock options is based on the price of a share of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant.  In determining the grant date fair value of stock options, the Company uses the Black-Scholes option pricing model which requires management to make assumptions regarding the option lives, expected volatility, and risk-free interest rates, all of which impact the fair value of the option and, ultimately, the expense that will be recognized over the life of the option.

The risk-free interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant for a bond with a similar term.  The Company does not anticipate declaring dividends in the foreseeable future.  Volatility is calculated based on the historical weekly closing stock prices for the same period as the expected life of the option.  The Company uses the “simplified” method for determining the expected term of its “plain vanilla” stock options.  The Company recognizes compensation expense for only the portion of stock options that are expected to vest.  Therefore, the Company applies an estimated forfeiture rate that is derived from historical employee termination data and adjusted for expected future employee turnover rates.  If the actual number of forfeitures differs from those estimated by the Company, additional adjustments to compensation expense may be required in future periods.

Mr. Meetesh Patel was appointed a Director of the Company on September 19, 2008, the President and Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) on October 15, 2008 and the Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”) on January 9, 2009.  On August 9, 2010, Mr. Patel resigned from all executive positions held with the Company and as one of its directors.

On December 15, 2009, the Board approved, and the Company granted a stock option to Mr. Patel to purchase up to 250,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $0.44 per share.  The stock option granted to Mr. Patel was fully vested and exercisable upon grant.  Pursuant to the stock option agreement, Mr. Patel had 90 days following the date he ceased to be an officer or director of the Company to exercise these stock options.  Accordingly, Mr. Patel had until November 7, 2010 to exercise the 250,000 stock options granted to him.  On November 1, 2010, Mr. Patel exercised 70,000 of the 250,000 stock options granted to him on December 15, 2009.  The remaining 180,000 stock options were forfeited, unexercised, effective November 7, 2010.


On April 6, 2010, the Company entered into an amendment to the Employment Agreement dated June 24, 2009 with Mr. Patel (the “Amended Employment Agreement”), pursuant to which Mr. Patel agreed to continue to serve as the Company’s President and CEO, until March 31, 2011 (the “Employee Employment Commitment”).  In consideration of the Employee Employment Commitment, Mr. Patel was granted a stock option to purchase up to 150,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $0.58 per share.  Subject to the terms, restrictions and earlier termination provisions as set forth in the option agreement dated April 6, 2010 between the Company and Mr. Patel, the option vests as follows:

 
(a)
as to 37,500 on June 30, 2010;
 
(b)
as to 37,500 on September 30, 2010;
 
(c)
as to 37,500 on December 31, 2010; and
 
(d)
as to 37,500 on March 31, 2011.

As of the date that Mr. Patel tendered his resignation, 37,500 of the 150,000 stock options had vested.  Pursuant to the stock option agreement, the vesting of this stock option was accelerated when the Company mutually terminated the Amended Employment Agreement between the Company and Mr. Patel and Mr. Patel had the right at any time within the then remaining exercise period of such vested stock options to exercise the 150,000 stock options granted to him on April 6, 2010.  On November 1, 2010, Mr. Patel exercised all 150,000 of these stock options via the cashless exercise option set forth in the option agreement and the Company issued 80,952 shares of its common stock in full settlement of this stock option exercise.

Overview

The following Management’s Discussion and Analysis (“MD&A”) is intended to help the reader understand our results of operations and financial condition. The MD&A is provided as a supplement to, and should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes to the consolidated financial statements included in this Form 10-Q.

The MD&A is based on our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities and expenses and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. Management bases its estimates 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. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.


Background

We were incorporated in the State of Nevada on May 5, 1998, under the name “Octillion Corp.” On December 2, 2008, we amended our Articles of Incorporation to effect a change of name to New Energy Technologies, Inc.  The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of New Energy Technologies, Inc. and our wholly-owned subsidiaries, Sungen Energy, Inc. (“Sungen”), Kinetic Energy Corporation (“KEC”), Octillion Technologies Limited (“Octillion Technologies”) and New Energy Solar Corporation (“New Energy Solar”).

Sungen was incorporated on July 11, 2006 in the State of Nevada and has no assets and no liabilities.

KEC was incorporated on June 19, 2008 in the State of Nevada and has no assets and no liabilities.

Octillion Technologies was incorporated on April 11, 2007 in the Province of British Columbia, Canada for providing administrative services to the Canadian office. We ceased to conduct business in Canada on August 31, 2008 and closed this office. As a result, we dissolved Octillion Technologies and eliminated all intercompany balances, effective December 1, 2008.

New Energy Solar was incorporated on February 9, 2009 in the State of Florida and has no assets and no liabilities.

Our research and development activities are currently focused on the development of:
 
·
MotionPower™ Technology for capturing and converting the kinetic energy of moving vehicles to generate electricity; and
 
·
SolarWindow™ Technology which enables see-thru glass windows to generate electricity by applying electricity-generating coatings to their glass surfaces.
 
Ultimately, we plan to market MotionPower™ Technology and/or SolarWindow™ Technology products, if any, subject to receiving any requisite regulatory approvals, through co-marketing, co-promotion, licensing and distribution arrangements with third party collaborators. The decision as to which method or methods of commercialization we will pursue will depend on various factors including, but not limited to, our financial resources at the time, manufacturing costs, market acceptance of the product(s), and competing technologies or products at the time.

We believe that this approach could provide immediate access to pre-existing distribution channels, therefore potentially increasing market penetration and commercial acceptance of our products and enabling us to avoid expending significant funds for development of a large sales and marketing organization. Currently no such products or arrangements exist, nor can we currently project with any degree of accuracy when, if ever, such products or arrangements may exist.  If we do not ultimately commercialize products derived from our MotionPower™ Technology and/or SolarWindow™ Technology we will not generate revenues from our operations as currently conducted.
 
Our success will be dependent upon our ability to develop products that are superior to existing products and products introduced in the future, and which are cost effective. In addition, we may be required to continually enhance any products that are developed as well as introduce new products that keep pace with technological change and address the increasingly sophisticated needs of the marketplace. There can be no assurance that we will be able to keep pace with the technological demands of the marketplace or successfully develop products that will succeed in the marketplace.
 
We cannot currently estimate with any accuracy the amount of either the additional funds or time required to successfully commercialize either technology, because the actual cost and time may vary significantly depending on results of current basic research and development and product testing, cost of acquiring an exclusive license, changes in the focus and direction of our research and development programs, competitive and technological advances, the cost of filing, prosecuting, defending and enforcing patent claims, the regulatory approval process, manufacturing, marketing and other costs associated with commercialization of products following receipt of regulatory approvals and other factors.

Marketing and investor relations costs represent fees paid to publicize our technology within the industry and investor community with the purpose of increasing company recognition.

We utilize various third parties to manage our investor relations and facilitate our marketing programs, to increase company recognition and branding, and to provide shareholder communications.

The decrease in marketing and investor relations expense during the three months ended November 30, 2010 compared to the same period in 2009 is substantially due to us undertaking a targeted marketing program during the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2009, which continued into the first quarter of fiscal year 2010.  We incurred $210,000 more during the prior year quarter than the current quarter as a result of our targeted marketing program designed to establish our brand name recognition early on in our corporate development.  During that time, our marketing efforts, in addition to keeping our shareholders apprised of the advances to our technologies, generated more than 70 news media stories, including online, radio, television, and print media coverage in leading mainstream media in the United States.

We intend to continue to further develop and market our brand name and increase our brand recognition.  Subject to the receipt of any requisite regulatory approvals, we believe our marketing strategy ultimately will facilitate the distribution, sale and public acceptance of our MotionPower™ Technology and SolarWindow™ Technology products.

Wages and Benefits

During the three months ended November 30, 2010, we incurred $43,664 in wages and benefits expense for services rendered by John A. Conklin, who was appointed to serve as our President, Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”), effective August 9, 2010, and $235,822 in stock compensation expense for the amortization of the fair value of the stock option granted to Mr. Conklin on August 9, 2010 to purchase up to 2,000,000 shares of our common stock at an exercise price of $0.55 per share, expiring on August 9, 2020.

During the three months ended November 30, 2010, we incurred $42,065 in wages and benefits expense for services rendered by Meetesh Patel, our former President, CEO, and CFO, and $182,729 in stock compensation expense for the amortization of the fair value of the stock option granted to Mr. Patel on June 24, 2009 to purchase up to 2,000,000 shares of our common stock at an exercise price of $0.52 per share. The stock option granted to Mr. Patel was subsequently forfeited upon his resignation from all executive officer positions held with us and as one of our directors on August 9, 2010 and the related stock compensation previously recogonized was reversed.

Professional Fees

Professional fees primarily consist of accounting, audit and tax fees, legal fees, non-employee Board fees, SEC related filing fees, and consulting services provided to advance our MotionPower™ and SolarWindow™ Technology products (“Energy Consulting Services”).

Professional fees decreased $2,621 during the three months ended November 30, 2010 compared to the same period in 2009 primarily as a result of a decrease in legal fees of approximately $16,900 directly related to the preparation and filing of our Form S-1 and amendments thereto during the prior year. Offsetting the decrease in legal fees are increases in accounting and audit related fees of approximately $5,000 and Energy Consulting Services of approximately $7,300. Accounting and audit related fees increased due to the timing of when audit field work was performed by the independent registered public accounting firm for our August 31 fiscal year end.  Energy Consulting Services consists of consulting fees paid to third parties to provide technical advice, guidance, and business planning and modeling to help advance the commercial development of our technologies, including but not necessarily limited to our SolarWindow™ and MotionPower™ technologies.

Research and Development

Research and development costs represent costs incurred to develop our SolarWindow™ and MotionPower™ technologies and are incurred pursuant to our sponsored research agreements with USF, development agreements with Veryst, consulting agreements with Sigma Design, and agreements with other third party providers. These agreements include salaries and benefits for research and development personnel, allocated overhead and facility occupancy costs, contract services and other costs. Research and development costs are expensed when incurred, except for nonrefundable advance payments for future research and development activities which are capitalized and recognized as expense as the related services are performed. 


Please refer to the appropriate sections above for disclosure of the specific terms and amounts incurred for each research and development agreement.

Other Operating Expenses

Other operating expenses includes rent, patent filing costs, utilities, insurance, press releases, information technology related fees, printing costs, and other administrative costs.

Other operating expenses decreased $24,690 during the three months ended November 30, 2010 as compared to the same period of the prior year substantially due to decreases in press release expense of approximately $19,600 and patent expenses of approximately $5,300. During the quarter ended November 30, 2010, we announced the unveiling of our SolarWindow™ Technology at USF as well as other significant advancements in the technology. During the quarter ended November 30, 2009, we made several announcements regarding the advancement of our MotionPower™ Technology and the testing of such at Burger King and the Four Seasons Hotel. As we continue to advance our MotionPower™ and SolarWindow™ technologies we will continue to make announcements by way of press releases, resulting in additional fees for press releases. During the quarter ended November 30, 2009, we filed United States and international patent applications for our MotionPower™ Technology and SolarWindow™ Technology, resulting in higher expense in the prior year than in the current year.

Other Income (Expense)

A summary of our other income (expense) for the three months ended November 30, 2010 and 2009 was as follows:

Change in Fair Value of Warrant Liability

On September 1, 2009, we adopted guidance which is now part of ASC 815-40, Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity.  We determined that our Class F Callable Warrants contained a Dilutive Issuance provision.  As a result, we reclassified 3,188,500 of our Class F Callable Warrants to warrant liability, resulting in a cumulative adjustment to accumulated deficit as of September 1, 2009 of $342,771.

Our Class F Callable Warrants are considered derivative financial liabilities and are therefore required to be adjusted to fair value each quarter.  We valued our warrant liability at November 30, 2010 using a Black-Scholes model containing the following assumptions:  dividend yield of 0%, volatility of 129.3%, risk-free rate of 0.17%, and a term of 0.2 years.   Increases in the volatility of the Class F Callable Warrants and the fair value of our common stock during the quarter ended November 30, 2010 resulted in an increase in the warrant liability and a non-cash loss related to the Class F Callable Warrants of $689,346 during the three months ended November 30, 2010.  The effect of the increases in volatility and the fair value of our common stock had a more significant impact on the warrant liability than the offsetting decrease in the number of Class F Callable Warrants outstanding (3,188,500 outstanding at August 31, 2010 and 1,133,356 outstanding at November 30, 2010).


We valued our warrant liability at November 30, 2009 using a Black-Scholes model containing the following assumptions:  dividend yield of 0%, volatility of 178.97%, risk-free rate of 0.27%, and a term of 1.2 years.    A decrease in the remaining term of the Class F Callable Warrants during three months ended November 30, 2009 and a decline in the fair value of the Company’s common stock from September 1, 2009 to November 30, 2009 resulted in a decrease in the warrant liability and a non-cash gain related to the Class F Callable Warrants of $991,254 during the three months ended November 30, 2009.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming we will continue as a going concern.  We have incurred cumulative losses of $7,925,132 through November 30, 2010.  Due to the "start up" nature of our business, we expect to incur losses as we continue development of our photovoltaic and energy harvesting technologies and expand.  These conditions raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.  Management recognizes that in order for us to meet our capital requirements, and continue to operate, additional financing will be necessary.  We expect to raise additional funds through private or public equity investment in order to expand the range and scope of its business operations. We will seek access to private or public equity but there is no assurance that such additional funds will be available for us to finance our operations on acceptable terms, if at all.  If we are unable to raise additional capital or generate positive cash flow, it is unlikely that we will be able to continue as a going concern.  The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
 
Our principal source of liquidity is cash in the bank.  At November 30, 2010, we had a cash and cash equivalent balance of $2,670,005. We have financed our operations primarily pursuant to a Securities Purchase Agreement in which we received net proceeds of $3,395,955 in February 2008 (as further described below) and from the exercise of warrants and stock options.
 
Net cash used in operating activities was $305,863 for the three months ended November 30, 2010, compared to net cash used in operating activities of $675,873 for the three months ended November 30, 2009.  The decrease in cash used in operating activities of $370,010 substantially reflects decreases in amounts paid for marketing and investor relations of approximately $210,000 (see “Marketing and Investor Relations” above), research and development of approximately $70,600 (see “Research and Development” above), professional fees of approximately $14,400 (see “Professional Fees” above), and other operating expenses (see “Other Operating Expenses” above).

Net cash provided by financing activities was $2,474,730 and $0 for the three months ended November 30, 2010 and 2009.  During October and November 2010, we received $2,443,930 from the exercise of Class F warrants and $30,800 from the exercise of stock options.

Securities Purchase Agreement

On February 12, 2008, we consummated the sale of an aggregate of 3,675,000 shares of our common stock and Class F Callable Warrants to purchase up to an additional 3,675,000 shares of our common stock for aggregate gross proceeds of $3,675,000 pursuant to the terms of a Securities Purchase Agreement dated February 8, 2008 (the “2008 Private Placement”) with certain institutional and other accredited investors (the “Investors”).
 
We engaged an agent (the “Agent”) to help in the fund raising efforts of the 2008 Private Placement. The agent was paid a total cash fee of 7% ($257,250) of the aggregate proceeds and received Class F Callable Warrants to purchase 514,500 shares of our common stock valued at $642,980 and representing 7% of the total number of shares purchased by the Investors. In addition, the Agent was reimbursed $6,045 for expenses incurred on our behalf.

Accrued Liabilities

On August 25, 2006, we entered into the UIUC Sponsored Research Agreement, which was amended on July 23, 2007. Pursuant to the amended UIUC Sponsored Research Agreement, we agreed to provide a total of $422,818 to the University of Illinois. The UIUC Sponsored Research Agreement expired on August 22, 2008. As of this date, we had advanced a total of $266,709 to the University of Illinois pursuant to the terms of the UIUC Sponsored Research Agreement. We were to advance an additional $156,109 to the University of Illinois, which is included in other accrued liabilities at November 30, 2010 and August 31, 2010. However, we have not made the advance pending determination as to whether funds previously paid to UIUC under the terms of the UIUC Sponsored Research Agreement have been fully expended. We are of the opinion that to the extent these funds were not expended they are refundable to us (see “UIUC Sponsored Research Agreement” under “Terminated Research Agreements” above).


Other Contractual Obligations

In addition to the contractual obligations discussed above for the research and development agreement with USF, as of November 30, 2010, we have future minimum lease payments of $13,650 under our corporate and other office operating leases.  In addition, we have future minimum payments totaling $53,000 pursuant to agreements with third party providers that we utilize for investor relations and marketing.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We have no off-balance sheet arrangements.

Item 2.   Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds

On April 6, 2010, the Company entered into an amendment to the Employment Agreement dated June 24, 2009 with Mr. Patel (the “Amended Employment Agreement”), pursuant to which Mr. Patel agreed to continue to serve as the Company’s President and CEO, until March 31, 2011 (the “Employee Employment Commitment”).  In consideration of the Employee Employment Commitment, Mr. Patel was granted a stock option to purchase up to 150,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $0.58 per share.  Subject to the terms, restrictions and earlier termination provisions as set forth in the option agreement dated April 6, 2010 between the Company and Mr. Patel, the option vests as follows:
 
(e)
as to 37,500 on June 30, 2010;
 
(f)
as to 37,500 on September 30, 2010;
 
(g)
as to 37,500 on December 31, 2010; and
 
(h)
as to 37,500 on March 31, 2011.

On August 9, 2010, Mr. Patel resigned from all executive positions held with us and as one of our directors.  As of the date of Mr. Patel’s resignation, 37,500 of his 150,000 stock options had vested.  Pursuant to the stock option agreement, the vesting of this stock option was accelerated when we mutually terminated the Amended Employment Agreement between us and Mr. Patel and Mr. Patel had the right at any time within the then remaining exercise period of such vested stock options to exercise the 150,000 stock options granted to him on April 6, 2010.  On November 1, 2010, Mr. Patel exercised all 150,000 of these stock options via the cashless exercise option set forth in the option agreement and we issued 80,952 shares of our common stock in full settlement of this stock option exercise.

The issuance of the common stock pursuant to the above transaction is exempt from registration pursuant to Section 4(2) of the Securities Act, and the stock certificate contained an appropriate legend stating that such securities have not been registered under the Securities Act and may not be offered or sold absent registration or an exemption therefrom.
