(the “Company”) as of February 28, 2017, and for the three and six months ended February 28, 2017 and February 29, 2016, have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) in the United States for interim financial reporting and include the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiaries, Kinetic Energy Corporation (“KEC”), and New Energy Solar Corporation (“New Energy Solar”). Accordingly, they do not include all of the disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for complete financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended August 31, 2016, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission as part of the Company’s Form 10-K. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair presentation of the interim financial information have been included. The Company did not record an income tax provision during the periods presented due to net taxable losses. The results of operations for any interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations for the entire year.
Organization
SolarWindow Technologies, Inc. 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. Effective as of March 9, 2015, the Company amended its Articles of Incorporation to change its name to SolarWindow Technologies, Inc. to align the company name with its brand identity. The Company’s ticker symbol changed to WNDW. The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries, KEC and New Energy Solar.
KEC was incorporated on June 19, 2008, in the State of Nevada and holds the patents related to the Company’s MotionPower™ technology. The Company’s business activities related to the MotionPower™ technology are conducted through KEC.
New Energy Solar was incorporated on February 9, 2009, in the State of Florida and entered into agreements with The University of South Florida Research Foundation (“USF”) to sponsor research related to the Company’s SolarWindow™ technology. On February 18, 2015, the Company terminated the license agreement entered into with USF which originated on June 21, 2010.
The Company has been developing two sustainable electricity generating systems. These novel technologies are branded as SolarWindow™ and MotionPower™. On March 2, 2015, the Company announced its exclusive focus on SolarWindow™.
The Company’s SolarWindow™ technology provides the ability to harvest light energy from the sun and artificial sources and generate electricity from a transparent coating of organic photovoltaic (“OPV”) layers. The Company’s SolarWindow™ transparent electricity generating coatings are the subject of 14 patent pending technologies. SolarWindow™ coatings are being developed for application on glass, and flexible glass and plastic surfaces and could potentially be used on any of the more than 85 million commercial and residential buildings in the United States alone.
The Company’s SolarWindow™ product development programs involve ongoing research and development efforts, and the commitment of significant resources to support the extensive invention, design, engineering, testing, prototyping, and intellectual property initiatives carried-out by its contract engineers, scientists, and consultants. The Company’s activities are subject to significant risks and uncertainties, including, but not limited to, the Company’s failure to secure, on a timely basis, adequate additional funding to commercialize the Company’s SolarWindow™ technology or the development of a similar technology and products, by existing or potential future competitors, that may gain earlier market entry or greater market acceptance than the Company’s technology and products.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In March 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2016-09, “Compensation-Stock Compensation: Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting (Topic 718)”, which is intended to simplify several aspects of the accounting for share-based payment award transactions. The guidance will be effective for the fiscal year beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within that year. The Company does not expect adoption of ASU 2016-09 to have a material impact on its financial statements.
In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842)”, which supersedes ASC Topic 840, Leases, and creates a new topic, ASC 842, Leases. The new guidance requires the recognition of lease assets and liabilities for operating leases with terms of more than 12 months. Presentation of leases within the consolidated statements of operations and consolidated statements of cash flows will be generally consistent with the current lease accounting guidance. The ASU is effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018, with early adoption permitted. The Company does not expect this accounting update to have a material effect on its consolidated financial statements.
In November 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-17, “Income Taxes (Topic 740): Balance Sheet Classification of Deferred Taxes” (“ASU 2015-17”). The standard requires that deferred tax assets and liabilities be classified as noncurrent on the balance sheet rather than being separated into current and noncurrent. ASU 2015-17 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2016. Early adoption is permitted and the standard may be applied either retrospectively or on a prospective basis to all deferred tax assets and liabilities. The Company has determined that the adoption of ASU 2015-17 will currently have no impact on its consolidated financial statements.
In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606)”, to clarify the principles used to recognize revenue for all entities. In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-08 to further clarify the implementation guidance on principal versus agent considerations. The guidance is effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2017. The Company does not expect this accounting update to have a material effect on its consolidated financial statements.
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, the Company has not identified any standards that the Company believes merit further discussion. The Company believes that none of the new standards will have a significant impact on the financial statements.
Going Concern
The Company does not have any commercialized products and has not generated any revenue since inception. The Company has a retained deficit of $36,685,128 and cash and cash equivalents of $876,009 as of February 28, 2017, 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.
Based upon its current and near term anticipated level of operations and expenditures, the Company believes that cash on hand should be sufficient to enable it to continue operations through June 2017.
If adequate funds are not available on reasonable terms, or at all, it would result in a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, operating results, financial condition and prospects. In particular, the Company may be required to delay; reduce the scope of or terminate its research and development programs; sell rights to its SolarWindow™ technology and/or MotionPower™ technology, or other technologies or products based upon these technologies; or license the rights to these technologies or products on terms that are less favorable to the Company than might otherwise be available.
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 5 - Stock Options
Stock option grants pursuant to the 2006 Plan vest either immediately or over one to five years and expire ten years after the date of grant. Stockholders previously approved 5,000,000 shares for grant under the 2006 Plan, of which 3,061,665 remain available for grant and 1,013,334 were issued pursuant to the exercise of vested options as of February 28, 2017. All shares approved for grant and subsequently forfeited are available for future grant. The Company does not repurchase shares to fulfill the requirements of options that are exercised. The Company issues new shares when options are exercised.
The Company employs the following key weighted-average assumptions in determining the fair value of stock options, using the Black-Scholes option pricing model and the simplified method to estimate the expected term of “plain vanilla” options:

The aggregate intrinsic value in the table above represents the total pretax intrinsic value for all “in-the-money” options (i.e. the difference between the Company’s closing stock price on the last trading day of the period covered by this report and the exercise price, multiplied by the number of shares) that would have been received by the option holders had all in-the-money option holders exercised their vested options on February 28, 2017. The intrinsic value of the option changes based upon the fair market value of the Company’s common stock. Since the closing stock price was $3.62 on February 28, 2017 and 575,000 outstanding options have an exercise price below $3.62 per share, as of February 28, 2017, there is intrinsic value to the Company’s outstanding, in-the-money stock options.
During the six months ended February 28, 2017, there were 130,000 options exercised on a cashless basis resulting in the issuance of 46,520 shares of common stock. The aggregate intrinsic value of the options exercised was $186,500. Additionally, the Company granted 35,000 options with an exercise price of $3.28.

NOTE 6 - Net Loss Per Share
During the three and six months ended February 28, 2017 and February 29, 2016, the Company recorded a net loss. Basic net loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. The Company has not included the effects of warrants, stock options and convertible debt on net loss per share because to do so would be antidilutive.
Following is the computation of basic and diluted net loss per share for the three and six months ended February 28, 2017 and February 29, 2016:

Overview
We are a pre-revenue company developing our proprietary SolarWindow™ transparent electricity generating coatings. Our SolarWindow™ technology provides the ability to harvest light energy from the sun and artificial sources and generate electricity from a transparent, coating of OPV layers applied to glass, flexible glass and plastic surfaces and could potentially be used on any of the more than 85 million commercial and residential buildings in the United States alone. Our SolarWindow™ technology is the subject of 14 pending patents.
The development of our SolarWindow™ technology continues to advance under the Stevenson-Wydler Cooperative Research and Development Agreement (the “NRELCRADA”) with the Alliance for Sustainable Energy, LLC (the “ Alliance for Sustainable Energy”), which is the operator of The National Renewable Energy Laboratory (“NREL”).

Table of Contents |
We have achieved numerous important milestones and overcome major technical challenges in the development of our SolarWindow™ technology, including the ability to generate electricity on glass while remaining transparent and the application of our coatings on to glass at room temperature and pressure.
A brief list of some of our more important milestones includes:
|
· | entered into the NREL CRADA which is still in effect. |
|
|
|
|
· | filed fourteen patent applications for our electricity-generating coating and SolarWindow™ technology development efforts that are independent of both the USF sponsored research and NREL CRADA research. |
|
|
|
|
· | expanded the use of our SolarWindow™ coatings to include two new product lines for commercial and military aircraft, and the safety and security of military pilots. |
|
|
|
|
· | determined the correct combination of compounds to create a single solar cells, which can successfully generate electricity on glass while remaining stable and transparent. |
|
|
|
|
· | scaled-up from a single solar cell to a one-inch by one-inch “array”. An “array” is an arrangement of multiple solar cells rather than an individual single solar cell. |
|
|
|
|
· | developed a method for spraying our see-through electricity-generating coatings onto glass surfaces at room temperature and pressure, a significant technical achievement which may provide a manufacturing advantage over expensive and cumbersome high temperature-specific and high positive or negative pressure-sensitive manufacturing methods common to conventional solar PV manufacturing. |
|
|
|
|
· | invented and fabricated novel contacts that conduct electricity on SolarWindow™, yet remain see-through. Conventional contacts for conducting electricity use materials which generally block visibility and inhibit transparency, sometimes otherwise creating visible lines on or “in” the window. |
|
|
|
|
· | engineered new methods for absorbing light energy to improve the flow of electrons (negatively charged particles), a process fundamental to generating electricity necessary for power appliances and fixtures. In principle, this advance increases the efficiency of the solar cell and hence its ability to create more electricity from a given level of solar irradiation. |
|
|
|
|
· | discovered new, solution-based compounds that successfully mobilize the electrons necessary for generating electricity on SolarWindow™ and eliminated the use of other materials that could be prone to breakdown or failure. We have been able to produce these compounds from comparatively in-expensive starting materials, and have discovered methods that allow for reproducibility. |
|
|
|
|
· | created methods for increasing power output by maximizing the number of solar-cells present in our SolarWindow™ array for a defined surface area. |
|
|
|
|
· | successfully scaled-up SolarWindow™ prototypes from a one-inch square to a twelve-inch square (144 square inches in surface area). |
|
|
|
|
· | generated electricity on flexible plastic using novel see-through SolarWindow™ coatings. |
|
|
|
|
· | developed new SolarWindow™ coatings with increased transparency and improved color. |
|
|
|
|
· | successfully fabricated its latest working window prototype using a faster, rapid scale-up process for applying solution-based coatings. |
|
|
|
|
· |
produced the largest OPV device ever fabricated at NREL in the institute’s history. |
|
|
|
|
· |
successfully collected and transported electricity using a virtually ‘invisible’ conductive wiring system developed for SolarWindow™. |
|
|
|
|
· |
completed performance tests of its transparent electricity-generating coatings for glass and flexible plastics for glass-to-glass lamination processes. |
|
|
|
|
· |
successfully demonstrated SolarWindow™ coatings performed under test conditions designed to simulate the high pressure and temperatures of the ‘autoclave’ manufacturing processes used by commercial glass and window producers. |

Our product development efforts have produced early working prototypes for these applications, which we are sharing with potential commercialization partners. Commercialization of the SolarWindow™ technology will require significant further capital, research, development and testing. This additional work should enable us to ascertain whether the SolarWindow™ technology can form the basis for a commercially viable technology or product and which products will be first to market.
SolarWindow™ Retrofit Veneer products are being developed as transparent, tinted, flexible veneers that can be applied directly on to existing windows. This expanded product line broadens our market reach beyond new and replacement installations, to include windows currently installed on the estimated five million commercial buildings constructed in the U.S. alone. This retrofit veneer product will be developed in parallel to the SolarWindow™ products currently undergoing further development.
Recently, we have developed the capability to integrate transparent SolarWindow™ coatings on to flexible glass. This presents new product opportunities for curved and non-flat surfaces in automotive, aircraft, and military applications. By applying SolarWindow™ coatings on to flexible glass we can develop products with the flexibility of plastic and yet maintain the durability, scratch-resistance, and ease of maintenance of rigid glass.
We do not currently have any commercial products and there is no assurance that we will successfully be able to design, develop, manufacture, or sell any commercial products in the future. Our product development programs involve ongoing R&D and product development efforts, and the commitment of significant resources to support the extensive invention, design, engineering, testing, prototyping, and intellectual property initiatives carried-out by our contract engineers, scientists, and consultants.

We plan to market any SolarWindow™ Products we commercialize through co-marketing and co-promotion, licensing, and distribution arrangements with third party collaborators. To advance the technical development and subsequent commercialization of our SolarWindow™ products, we are actively seeking technology and product licensing and joint venture arrangements with research institutions, commercial partners, and organizations which have established technical competencies, market reach, and mature distribution networks in the solar PV, building-integrated PV, and alternative and renewable energy market industries. We believe that this approach could provide immediate access to pre-existing distribution channels which can increase the market penetration and commercial acceptance of our products, and enable us to avoid expending significant funds for development of a large sales and marketing organization. We have not yet entered into any such arrangements.
We cannot accurately predict the amount of funding or the time required to successfully commercialize our SolarWindow™ technology. The actual cost and time required to commercialize our SolarWindow™ technology may vary significantly depending on, among other things, the results of our R&D efforts, the cost of developing, acquiring, or licensing various enabling technologies, changes in the focus and direction of our R&D programs, competitive and technological advances, the cost of filing, prosecuting, defending and enforcing claims with respect to patents, the regulatory approval process and manufacturing, marketing and other costs associated with commercialization of these technologies. Because of this uncertainty, even if financing is available to us, we may secure insufficient funding to effectuate our business plan.
As of February 28, 2017, we had a working capital deficit of $2,457,456 and cash of $876,009. Based upon current and near term anticipated level of operations and expenditures, we believe that cash on hand should be sufficient to enable us to continue operations through June 2017.
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 our business operations. We will seek access to private or public equity markets 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.
Research and Related Agreements
We are a party to certain agreements related to the development of our SolarWindow™ technology.
Stevenson-Wydler Cooperative Research and Development Agreement with the Alliance for Sustainable Energy
On March 18, 2011, we entered into the NREL CRADA with Alliance for Sustainable Energy, the operator of the NREL under its U.S. Department of Energy contract to advance the commercial development of the SolarWindow™ technology. Under terms of the NREL CRADA, NREL researchers will make use of our exclusive intellectual property (“IP”), newly developed IP, and NREL’s background IP in order to work towards specific product development goals. Under the terms of the NREL CRADA, we agreed to reimburse Alliance for Sustainable Energy for filing fees associated with all documented, out-of-pocket costs directly related to patent application preparation and filings, and maintenance of the patent applications.
On January 16, 2013, we entered into a modification to the NREL CRADA for the purpose of extending the date pursuant to which NREL’s researchers will make use of our exclusive IP and NREL’s background IP.

Research and Development
Research and development (“R&D”) costs represent costs incurred to develop our SolarWindow™ technology and are incurred pursuant to our research agreements and agreements with other third party providers and certain internal R&D cost allocations. Payments under these agreements include salaries and benefits for R&D personnel, allocated overhead, contract services and other costs. R&D costs are expensed when incurred, except for non-refundable advance payments for future research and development activities which are capitalized and recognized as expense as the related services are performed. R&D costs increased during the three and six months ended February 28, 2017 compared to the three and six months ended February 29, 2016 as a result of increased R&D related to improving SolarWindow™ technology efficiency and transparency; optimizing electrical power (current and voltage) output; and improving performance, processing, reliability, and durability of SolarWindow™ coatings.
Stock Compensation
Expense associated with equity based transactions is calculated and expensed in our financial statements as required pursuant to various accounting rules and is non-cash in nature. Stock compensation represents the expense associated with the amortization of our stock options and issuance of common stock. Stock compensation expense decreased during the three months ended February 28, 2017 compared to the three months ended February 29, 2016 due to the absence in 2017 of the issuance of 90,000 shares of common stock to our directors valued at $337,500 and the absence of any new stock option grants where during the three months ended February 29, 2016, the Company granted 65,000 stock options of which 20,000 vested upon grant. Stock compensation expense was essentially flat during the six months ended February 28, 2017 compared to the six months ended February 29, 2016.

“Interest expense” relates to the stated interest of our convertible promissory notes and bridge note. “Accretion of debt discount” represents the accretion of the discount applied to our notes as a result of the issuance and modification of detachable warrants and the beneficial conversion feature contained in our notes. The “change in derivative liability” results from the accounting impact of the features included in the sale of Units pursuant to our Offering. See “NOTE 2 – Debt” and “NOTE 3 – Private Placements” to our Consolidated Financial Statements contained in this Form 10-Q.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
We have a retained deficit of $36,685,128 through February 28, 2017. Included in the deficit are non-cash expenses totaling $15,752,168 relating to the issuance of stock for services, compensatory stock options, warrants granted for value and accretion of debt discount. Due to the “start-up” nature of our business, we expect to incur losses as we continue development of our technologies.
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 maintain and/or expand the range and scope of our business operations; however, there is no assurance that such additional funds will be available for us on a timely basis or acceptable terms, if at all. If we are unable to raise additional capital when needed 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. On February 28, 2017, we had a cash and cash equivalent balance of $876,009. We have financed our operations primarily from the sale of equity and debt securities. We currently do not have any agreements with any third party regarding a potential financing.
Net cash used in operating activities was $1,569,513 during the three months ended February 28, 2017, compared to net cash used in operating activities of $1,061,762 during the three months ended February 29, 2016. Cash used in operating activities increased during the six months ended February 28, 2017 due to more cash used for R&D and investor communications.
Net cash used in investing activities was $45,547 during the six months ended February 28, 2017, compared to net cash used in investing activities of $2,300 during the six months ended February 29, 2016. Cash used in investing activities increased during the six months ended February 28, 2017 due to the purchase of R&D related equipment.
Net cash used by financing activities was $18,146 during the six months ended February 28, 2017, compared to cash provided of $1,024,310 during the six months ended February 29, 2016. Cash used by financing activities during the six months ended February 28, 2017 was from the payment of the bridge loan whereas cash provided by financing activities during the six months ended February 29, 2016 was from the proceeds of the $550,000 Bridge Loan and sale of Units from our Offering.
Other Contractual Obligations
In addition to our contractual obligations under the research agreements, as of February 28, 2017, we have lease payments of $1,165 each month under our month-to-month corporate office operating lease.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We have no off-balance sheet arrangements.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
See Note 1 to our Consolidated Financial Statements for more information regarding recent accounting pronouncements and their impact to our consolidated results of operations and financial position.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
