PART I — FINANCIAL INFORMATION 

Item 1. Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

SOLARWINDOW TECHNOLOGIES, INC.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 1 – Basis of Presentation, Organization, Recent Accounting Pronouncements and Going Concern

Basis of Presentation

The unaudited financial statements of SolarWindow Technologies, Inc. (the “Company”) as of May 31, 2018, and for the three and nine months ended May 31, 2018 and 2017, 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, 2017, 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.

Until the fourth quarter of the 2015 fiscal year, the Company was 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 harvests light energy from the sun and artificial sources to generate electricity from a transparent coating of organic photovoltaic solar cells applied to glass or plastics, creating a “photovoltaic” effect. Photovoltaics are best known as “solar panels” providing a method to generate electricity using solar cells to convert energy from the sun into a flow of electrons. Conventional PV power is generated by solar modules composed of interconnected mono- or poly-crystalline cells containing PV and electricity-conducting materials. These materials are usually opaque (i.e., not see-through) and only effectively generate electricity with sun light. The Company’s researchers have replaced these materials with a very thin layer of specially developed compounds that allow our SolarWindow™ technology to remain see-through or “transparent,” while generating electricity when exposed to either sun or artificial light.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In July 2017, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2017-11, Earnings Per Share (Topic 260), Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity (Topic 480), Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815). The amendments in Part I of this Update change the classification analysis of certain equity-linked financial instruments (or embedded features) with down round features. When determining whether certain financial instruments should be classified as liabilities or equity instruments, a down round feature no longer precludes equity classification when assessing whether the instrument is indexed to an entity’s own stock. The amendments also clarify existing disclosure requirements for equity-classified instruments. As a result, a free-standing equity-linked financial instrument (or embedded conversion option) no longer would be accounted for as a derivative liability at fair value as a result of the existence of a down round feature. For freestanding equity classified financial instruments, the amendments require entities that present earnings per share (EPS) in accordance with Topic 260 to recognize the effect of the down round feature when it is triggered. That effect is treated as a dividend and as a reduction of income available to common shareholders in basic EPS. Convertible instruments with embedded conversion options that have down round features are now subject to the specialized guidance for contingent beneficial conversion features (in Subtopic 470-20, Debt—Debt with Conversion and Other Options), including related EPS guidance (in Topic 260). The amendments in Part II of this Update recharacterize the indefinite deferral of certain provisions of Topic 480 that now are presented as pending content in the Codification, to a scope exception. Those amendments do not have an accounting effect. For public business entities, the amendments in Part I of this Update are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2018. Early adoption is permitted for all entities, including adoption in an interim period. If an entity early adopts the amendments in an interim period, any adjustments should be reflected as of the beginning of the fiscal year that includes that interim period. Management is currently assessing the impact the adoption of ASU 2017-11 will have on the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements.

In May 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-09, Compensation-Stock Compensation (Topic 718) Scope of Modification Accounting. The amendments in this Update provide guidance about which changes to the terms or conditions of a share-based payment award require an entity to apply modification accounting in Topic 718. The amendments in this Update are effective for all entities for annual periods, and interim periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2017. Early adoption is permitted, including adoption in any interim period, for public business entities for reporting periods for which financial statements have not yet been issued. Management is currently assessing the impact the adoption of ASU 2017-09 will have on the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements.

In March 2016, the FASB issued 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 is effective for our current fiscal year. The adoption of ASU 2016-09 did not have a material impact on the Consolidated 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 our current fiscal year. The adoption of ASU 2015-17 did not have a material impact on the 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 its Consolidated Financial Statements.

Going Concern

The Company does not have any commercialized products, has not generated any revenue since inception and has sustained recurring losses and negative cash flows from operations since inception. Due to the “start-up” nature of our business, we expect to incur losses as we continue development of our products and technologies. As of May 31, 2018, the Company has incurred recurring operating losses since inception of $44,663,263. As of May 31, 2018, the Company had approximately $1,191,587 of cash on hand and current liabilities of $88,683. 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.

As of the date of filing of the Company’s most recent Form 10-K on November 22, 2017, based on management’s assessment, the Company had sufficient cash to meet its funding requirements for the next twelve months. However, currently, based upon the Company’s near term anticipated level of operations and expenditures, management believes that cash on hand should be sufficient to enable the Company to continue operations through January 2019 or approximately six months from the date of this quarterly report. 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.

The Company has negative cash flows from operations, as well as an ongoing requirement for substantial additional capital investment. The Company expects that it will need to continue to raise substantial additional capital to accomplish its business plan over the next several years, in line with previous expectations. The Company will seek additional funding through private equity or convertible debt. 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.

NOTE 2 - Debt

As of May 31, 2018 and August 31, 2017, the Company had the following outstanding debt balances:

March 2015 Loan as Amended

On March 4, 2015, the Company entered into a Bridge Loan Agreement with 1420468 Alberta Ltd. (which has since been merged with and into Kalen Capital Corporation, a British Columbia corporation wholly-owned by our Chairman, Harmel S. Rayat (the “Investor”)). Pursuant the Bridge Loan Agreement, the Company borrowed $600,000 at an annual interest rate of 7% (the “March 2015 Loan”), compounded quarterly, with a default rate of 15%.

On November 3, 2017, the Company entered into the Third Amendment related to the March 2015 Loan pursuant to which the Company and the Investor amended the March 2015 loan to extend the maturity date to December 31, 2019. As consideration for the note extension, the interest rate was increased to 10.5%.

During the three months ended May 31, 2018 and 2017, the Company recognized $19,763 and $12,156, respectively, of interest expense. During the nine months ended May 31, 2018 and 2017, the Company recognized $53,045 and $35,462, respectively, of interest expense. During the three and nine months ended May 31, 2018, the Company recognized no debt discount accretion. During the three and nine months ended May 31, 2017, the Company recognized debt discount accretion of $0 and $74,702, respectively.

2013 Note as Amended

On October 7, 2013, the Company sold to the Investor an unsecured Convertible Promissory Note (the “2013 Note”) in the amount of $3,000,000 with 7% interest compounded quarterly. According to the terms of the amended 2013 Note, the Investor may elect to convert principal and accrued interest into units of the Company’s equity securities, with each Unit consisting of (a) one share of common stock; and (b) one Stock Purchase Warrant for the purchase of one share of common stock. The conversion price for each Unit is the lesser of (i) $1.37; or (ii) 70% of the 20 day average closing price of the Company’s common stock prior to conversion, subject to a floor of $1.00 with the exercise price of each Warrant being equal to 60% of the 20 day average closing price of the Company’s common stock prior to conversion. If issued, the Warrant included in the Units will be exercisable for a period of five years. As of May 31, 2018, if the investor elected to convert the entirety of amounts owing under the 2013 Note, the Company would be obligated to issue a warrant for the purchase of 3,084,175 shares of common stock.

On November 3, 2017, the Company entered into the Third Amendment related to the 2013 Note pursuant to which the Company and the Investor amended the 2013 Note to extend the maturity date to December 31, 2019. As consideration for the note extension, the interest rate was increased to 10.5% and all outstanding warrants held by the Investor had their maturity date extended to December 31, 2022, as described below, resulting in an additional debt discount of $1,074,265 as of November 3, 2017. The modification did not result in a gain or loss due to the related party nature of the transaction.

The maturity date of the remaining Series M Warrant to purchase 246,000 shares of common stock was extended from December 31, 2020 to December 31, 2022. The Company recorded $82,656 as a debt discount to recognize the increase in value for the extension of the expiration date.

The maturity date of the Series N Warrant to purchase 767,000 shares of common stock was extended from December 31, 2020 to December 31, 2022. The Company recorded $327,509 as a debt discount to recognize the increase in value for the extension of the expiration date.

The maturity date of the Series P Warrant to purchase 213,500 shares of common stock was extended from April 30, 2018 to December 31, 2022. The Company recorded $348,219 as a debt discount to recognize the increase in value for the extension of the expiration date.

The maturity date of the Series R Warrant to purchase 468,750 shares of common stock was extended from June 20, 2021 to December 31, 2022. The Company recorded $295,781 as a debt discount to recognize the increase in value for the extension of the expiration date.

The maturity date of the Series S-A Warrant to purchase 300,000 shares of common stock was extended from July 24, 2022 to December 31, 2022. The Company recorded $20,100 as a debt discount to recognize the increase in value for the extension of the expiration date.

Interest expense related to the 2013 Note, as amended, amounted to $108,943 and $67,006 during the three months ended May 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively. Interest expense amounted to $292,408 and $195,480 during the nine months ended May 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively.

Accretion of the debt discount related to the 2013 Note as amended amounted to $125,422 and $311,727 during the three months ended May 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively and $698,302 and $925,016 during the nine months ended May 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively. The remaining debt discount related to warrant expiration date extensions totals $789,340 and will be amortized through December 31, 2019.

NOTE 3 – Private Placements

September 2017 Private Placement

On September 11, 2017, the Company initiated and on September 29, 2017, completed a self-directed offering of 821,600 units at a price of $3.11 per unit for $2,555,176 in aggregate proceeds (the “September 2017 Private Placement”). The unit price was based on a 15% discount to the average of the 30-day closing price (last day being Friday September 8, 2017) of the Company's common stock as reported on the OTCQB. Each unit consisted of one share of common stock and one Series S Stock Purchase Warrant to purchase one (1) share of common stock at an exercise price of $3.42 per share through September 29, 2022. The warrants may be exercised on a cashless basis. All the units were purchased by unrelated parties.

The relative fair value of the common stock was estimated to be $1,540,000. The relative fair value of the Series S Warrants was estimated to be $1,015,000 as determined based on the relative fair value allocation of the proceeds received. The Series S Warrants were valued using the Black-Scholes option pricing model using the following variables: market price of common stock - $3.95 per share; estimated volatility – 77.96%; 5-year risk free interest rate – 1.71%; expected dividend rate - 0% and expected life - 5 years.

NOTE 4 – Common Stock and Warrants

Common Stock

At May 31, 2018, the Company had 300,000,000 authorized shares of common stock with a par value of $0.001 per share, 36,292,656 shares of common stock outstanding and 2,550,085 shares reserved for issuance under the Company’s 2006 Long-Term Incentive Plan (the “2006 Plan”) that provides for the grant of stock options to employees, directors, officers and consultants (See “NOTE 5 - Stock Options”).

During the nine months ended May 31, 2018, we entered into the following securities related transactions:

Warrants

Each of the Company’s warrants outstanding entitles the holder to purchase one share of the Company’s common stock for each warrant share held. Other than the Series O Warrants and Series P Warrants, all of the following warrants may be exercised on a cashless basis. A summary of the Company’s warrants outstanding and exercisable as of May 31, 2018 and August 31, 2017 is as follows:

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 2,550,085 remain available for grant, 1,305,001 have been exercised in total and 629,677 net shares issued pursuant to the exercise of vested options from inception of the 2006 Plan through May 31, 2018. 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 and therefore issues new shares when options are exercised. The 2006 Plan was approved by stockholders on February 7, 2011 and expires according to its terms on February 7, 2021.

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:

A summary of the Company’s stock option activity for the nine months ended May 31, 2018 and year ended August 31, 2017 and related information follows:

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 May 31, 2018. 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 $4.50 on May 31, 2018 and 42,500 outstanding options have an exercise price below $4.50 per share, as of May 31, 2018, there is intrinsic value to the Company’s outstanding, in-the-money stock options, including 32,500 options that are exercisable and in-the-money.

On November 21, 2017, the Company granted 255,000 options to directors and employees with an exercise price of $4.87.

On December 27, 2017, the Company entered into an employment agreement with John Conklin pursuant to which Mr. Conklin was granted 1,008,000 stock purchase options with an exercise price of $5.35 per share, vesting at the rate of 1/48^th per month and exercisable on a cashless basis. Mr. Conklin’s prior employment agreement expired on December 31, 2017 resulting in the forfeiture of 300,000 options with a performance condition that was not achieved.

During the nine months ended May 31, 2018, there were 1) 291,667 options exercised on a cashless basis resulting in the issuance of 146,162 shares of common stock, and 2) 5,000 unvested options forfeited resulting in a reduction to stock compensation expense of $5,157. The aggregate intrinsic value of the options exercised was $1,045,135.

During the year ended August 31, 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.

On November 15, 2016, the Company granted 35,000 options to two employees with an exercise price of $3.28.

On July 7, 2017, the Company finalized and executed two consulting agreements with third parties to provide business development services. The terms and conditions of each consulting agreement are similar and provide for combined compensation of $26,000 per month in cash and the grant of 1,500,000 common stock purchase options with an exercise price of $2.70 per share, and which vest upon the achievement of performance milestones and upon Board approval. The 1,500,000 stock options granted to consultants had a grant date fair value of $1.84 per option. During May 2018, the Company terminated the consulting agreements. The Company determined that the consultants did not achieve the performance milestones resulting in the cancelation of the 1,500,000 options.

The following table sets forth the share-based compensation cost resulting from stock option grants, including those previously granted and vesting over time, that were recorded in the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Operations for the three and nine months ended May 31, 2018 and 2017:

As of May 31, 2018, the Company had $5,315,777 of unrecognized compensation cost related to unvested stock options which is expected to be recognized over a period of 3.75 years.

The following table summarizes information about stock options outstanding and exercisable at May 31, 2018: 

NOTE 6 - Net Loss Per Share

During the three and nine months ended May 31, 2018 and 2017, 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 nine months ended May 31, 2018 and 2017:

NOTE 7 - Related Party Transactions

A related party with respect to the Company is generally defined as any person (i) (and, if a natural person, inclusive of his or her immediate family) that holds 10% or more of the Company’s securities, (ii) that is part of the Company’s management, (iii) that directly or indirectly controls, is controlled by or is under common control with the Company, or (iv) who can significantly influence the financial and operating decisions of the Company. A transaction is considered to be a related party transaction when there is a transfer of resources or obligations between related parties.

The law firm of Satterlee Stephens LLP (“Satterlee”), of which Joseph Sierchio, one of the Company’s directors, is a partner, provides counsel to the Company. Mr. Sierchio is the Company’s primary attorney. Fees billed by Satterlee during the three months ended May 31, 2018 and 2017, totaled $74,198 and $101,138, respectively, and $220,032 and $252,693 during the nine months ended May 31, 2018 and 2017. At May 31, 2018 and August 31, 2017, the Company owed Satterlee $50,286 and $105,184, respectively, which is included in accounts payable. Mr. Sierchio continues to serve as a director of the Company.

On August 7, 2017, the Company appointed Jatinder Bhogal to the Board of Directors. Mr. Bhogal has provided consulting services to the Company through his wholly owned company, Vector Asset Management, Inc., pursuant to a Consulting Agreement dated February 1, 2014 as amended on November 11, 2016. Pursuant to the Consulting Agreement, Mr. Bhogal receives compensation of $5,000 per month. In connection with the Consulting Agreement, during the three months ended May 31, 2018 and 2017, the Company recognized expense $15,000 and $15,000, respectively, and $45,000 and $45,000 of expense during the nine months ended May 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively.

On November 3, 2017, the Company entered into the Third Amendment to the 2013 Bridge Loan Agreement and the Third Amendment to the 2015 Bridge Loan Agreement with the Investor pursuant to which the Company and the Investor agreed to extend the maturity date to December 31, 2019. Pursuant to the Third Amendment to the 2013 Bridge Loan Agreement and the Third Amendment to the 2015 Bridge Loan Agreement, the rate of interest increased to 10.5% and the following warrants, held by the Investor, had their maturity date extended to December 31, 2022: a) Series M Warrant to purchase 246,000 shares; b) Series N Warrant to purchase 767,000 shares; c) Series P Warrant to purchase 213,500 shares; d) Series R Warrant to purchase 468,750; and e) Series S-A Warrant to purchase 300,000 shares. As a result of extending the expiration date of the above warrants to December 31, 2022, the Company recognized an additional debt discount to the 2013 Note of $1,074,265 as of November 3, 2017. For additional information related to our warrants, please see “NOTE 4 – Common Stock and Warrants”. For additional information related to our debt, please see “NOTE 2 – Debt”.

Overview

We are a pre-revenue company developing proprietary SolarWindow™ transparent electricity generating coatings that can be applied to glass, flexible glass and plastic surfaces. Our SolarWindow™ transparent electricity-generating coatings and technology is capable of harvesting light energy from the sun and artificial sources 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 ninety (90) pending U.S. and international patent and trademark filings. These filings consist of sixty (60) U.S. and international patent and thirty (30) trademark applications for our electricity-generating coating and SolarWindow™ technology development efforts.

The development of our SolarWindow™ technology continues to advance under the Stevenson-Wydler Cooperative Research and Development Agreement (the “NREL CRADA”) with the Alliance for Sustainable Energy, LLC (the “Alliance for Sustainable Energy”), which is the operator of The National Renewable Energy Laboratory (“NREL”); and the award of the Company’s first-ever advanced materials manufacturing Cooperative Research and Development Agreement (CRADA) from the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) Office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy’s (EERE) Advanced Manufacturing Office (AMO).

On August 2, 2017, we entered into a Process Integration and Production Agreement (PIPA) with TriView Glass Industries, LLC (“Triview”). Triview is a glass fabricator operating a manufacturing facility in City of Industry, California. The purpose and primary goals of agreement are to:

The Company has validated our SolarWindow™ coatings inside a rigorous autoclave system for window glass lamination at Triview. Layered with SolarWindow™ electricity-generating liquid coatings, glass modules were subjected to the extremely high heat and pressure of autoclave equipment located at the fabricator’s facility. Despite being subjected to harsh pressure and temperature conditions, subsequent performance testing confirmed that the SolarWindow™ modules continued to produce power. This is an important milestone for the commercialization of SolarWindow products, showing that our PV layers are compatible with autoclave production equipment.

We have achieved significant breakthroughs 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:

We are currently developing “SolarWindow™ Products” derived from our SolarWindow™ technology designed to address several potential markets, including:

Our focus is on the development and deployment of SolarWindow™ glass products. We have working prototypes, which we share with our product development, manufacturing, and commercialization partners in the pursuit of commercially viable first-to-market products.

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 that we commercialize through co-marketing and co-promotion, licensing, and distribution arrangements with third-party collaborators, such as Triview, to advance the technical development and subsequent commercialization of our SolarWindow™ products. We are actively seeking additional technology and product licensing contracts; joint venture arrangements; and manufacturing process integration relationships with commercial partners and industry; 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 existing distribution channels which can increase 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 cannot accurately predict the amount of funding or the time required to successfully commercialize or fabricate SolarWindow™ products. The actual cost and time required to commercialize our SolarWindow™ technology may vary significantly depending on, among other things, the results of our product development efforts; the cost of developing, acquiring, or licensing various enabling technologies; changes in the focus and direction of our business or product development plans; competitive and technological advances; the cost of patent filing, prosecuting, defending and enforcing claims; demonstrating compliance with regulations and standards; and manufacturing, marketing and other costs that may be associated with product fabrication. Because of this uncertainty, even if financing is available to us, we may secure insufficient funding to effectuate our business and/or product development plans.

As of May 31, 2018, we had working capital of $1,281,807 and cash of $1,191,587. 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 January 2019. The Company’s SolarWindow™ research and product development programs involve ongoing 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. If the Company fails to secure, on a timely basis, adequate additional funding it may not be able to continue its operations beyond January, 2019.

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.

Process Integration and Production Agreement with TriView Glass Industries

On August 2, 2017, we entered into the PIPA Agreement with TriView. Triview is a glass fabricator operating a manufacturing facility in City of Industry, California. The purpose and primary goals of agreement are to:

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.

On March 6, 2013, we entered into Phase II of our NREL CRADA with Alliance for Sustainable Energy. Under the terms of the agreement, researchers will additionally work towards:

On December 28, 2015, we entered into another modification of the CRADA (the “Modification”) to the NREL CRADA with Alliance for Sustainable Energy, previously entered into between us and NREL. The purpose of the Modification was to extend the date pursuant to which NREL’s researchers work towards specific product development goals. On November 21, 2017 the Company entered into a No Cost Time Extension (“NCTE”) under the NREL CRADA with the Alliance for Sustainable Energy. Under the terms of the NCTE, all terms and conditions of the CRADA remain in full force and effect without change, with a new completion date of December 21, 2018. Specifically, we are preparing to commercialize our OPV-based SolarWindow™ transparent electricity-generating coatings for BIPV, and glass and flexible plastic applications. Under Modification, NREL and the Company will work jointly towards achieving specific commercialization goals and objectives. As of May 31, 2018, the Company made $134,139 of advances to Alliance for Sustainable Energy for work to be performed under the NREL CRADA, which is capitalized as deferred research and development costs on our balance sheet.

U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) Office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy’s (EERE) Advanced Manufacturing Office (AMO) Cooperative Research and Development Agreement

The purpose of this project is to develop and demonstrate a unique high-throughput process methodology for semitransparent organic photovoltaic (OPV) modules compatible with high process speeds for many different advanced material manufacturing systems.

Results of Operations

Three and Nine Months Ended May 31, 2018 Compared with the Three and Nine Months Ended May 31, 2017

Operating Expenses

A summary of our operating expense for the three and nine months ended May 31, 2018 and 2017 follows:

Selling, General and Administrative

Selling, general and administrative costs include all expenditures incurred other than research and development related costs, including costs related to personnel, professional fees, travel and entertainment, public company costs, insurance and other office related costs. The decrease during the three and nine months ended May 31, 2018 compared to the three and nine months ended May 31, 2017, was primarily due to a decrease in investor communications related fees and the increased allocation of internal costs to R&PD offset to a lesser extent by higher insurance costs.

Research and Product Development

Research and Product Development (“R&PD”) 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&PD cost allocations. Payments under these agreements include salaries and benefits for R&PD personnel, allocated overhead, contract services and other costs. R&PD 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&PD costs increased during the three and nine months ended May 31, 2018 compared to the three and nine months ended May 31, 2017 primarily as a result of increased product development, including 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

The Company grants stock options to its Directors, employees and consultants and issues stock to its Directors. Stock compensation represents the expense associated with the amortization of our stock options and issuance of common stock. 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 expense increased during the three and nine months ended May 31, 2018 compared to the three and nine months ended May 31, 2017 due to the grant of 1,255,000 options and issuance of 210,000 shares of common stock to our directors at market prices and fair values that exceeded the prior year due to our higher stock price. In the prior year, the Company issued 120,000 shares to the Board valued at $393,600 compared to the current year Board share issuance of 210,000 shares valued at $1,022,700. Additionally, in the prior year, the Company issued 35,000 stock purchase options with vesting related expense of $69,000 compared to the grant of 1,263,000 stock purchase options in the current year with vesting related expense of $1,313,000.

Other Income (Expense)

A summary of our other income (expense) for the three and nine months ended May 31, 2018 and 2017 follows:

“Interest expense” relates to the stated interest of our outstanding debt. “Accretion of debt discount” represents the accretion of the discount applied to our outstanding debt as a result of the issuance and modification of detachable warrants and the beneficial conversion feature contained in our notes. Pursuant to the third amendment to both outstanding promissory notes, the maturity date was extended to December 31, 2019 and the interest rate increased from 7% to 10.5% resulting in an increase to the amount of interest expense recognized during the three and nine months ended May 31, 2018 compared to the same prior year periods.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

We have a retained deficit of $44,663,263 through May 31, 2018. Included in the deficit are non-cash expenses totaling $19,555,941 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 and products.

These conditions raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern beyond January, 2019. 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 May 31, 2018, we had a cash and cash equivalent balance of $1,191,587. 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 $2,426,011 during the nine months ended May 31, 2018, compared to net cash used in operating activities of $2,174,647 during the nine months ended May 31, 2017. Cash used in operating activities increased during the nine months ended May 31, 2018 due to less cash used for investor communications and professional fees offset by higher product development related costs.

Net cash used in investing activities was $2,581 during the nine months ended May 31, 2018 compared to net cash used in investing activities of $45,547 during the nine months ended May 31, 2017. Cash used in investing activities decreased during the nine months ended February 28, 2018 due to no R&PD equivalent equipment purchases made in the current year compared to the prior year.

Net cash provided by financing activities was $2,949,326 during the nine months ended May 31, 2018, compared to cash used of $18,146 during the nine months ended May 31, 2017. Cash provided by financing activities during the nine months ended May 31, 2018 was from the exercise of 80,000 Series O Warrants for proceeds of $248,000; the exercise of 39,500 Series P Warrants for proceeds of $146,150 and the September 29, 2017 private placement of 821,600 units of our securities resulting in proceeds of $2,555,176. Cash used by financing activities during the nine months ended May 31, 2017 was from the re-payment of the bridge loan.

Other Contractual Obligations

In addition to our contractual obligations under the research agreements, as of May 31, 2018, we have lease payments of $1,200 each month under our month-to-month corporate office operating lease.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We have no off-balance sheet arrangements.
