NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(UNAUDITED)

 

NOTE 1 – Basis of Presentation and Organization

 

Basis of Presentation

 

The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements of SolarWindow Technologies, Inc. and its controlled subsidiary companies (collectively, the “Company”) as of February 28, 2021, and for the three and six months ended February 28, 2021 and February 29, 2020 have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) for  quarterly reports on Form 10-Q and do not include all of the information and note disclosures required by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) for complete financial statements. These Consolidated Financial Statements should therefore be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes thereto for the fiscal year ended August 31, 2020 included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on November 10, 2020.

 

The accompanying unaudited interim Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP, which requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect amounts reported in the Consolidated Financial Statements and accompanying disclosures. Actual results may differ from those estimates. The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the same basis as the audited financial statements and include all adjustments (including normal recurring adjustments) that are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of the Company’s consolidated financial position as of February 28, 2021, results of operations, stockholders’ equity and cash flows for the three and six months ended February 28, 2021 and February 29, 2020. 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. On August 24, 2020, the Company formed wholly owned SolarWindow Asia (USA) Corp. as the holding company for SolarWindow Asia Co. Ltd., (collectively “SolarWindow Asia”) a company formed in the Republic of Korea for the purpose of expansion into the Asian markets. SolarWindow™ technology harvests light energy from the sun and from artificial light sources, by generating electricity from a transparent coating of organic photovoltaic (“OPV”) solar cells, applied to glass and plastics, thereby creating a “photovoltaic” effect. The Company’s ticker symbol is WNDW.

 

Liquidity and Management’s Plan

 

The Company has not generated any revenue since inception and has sustained recurring losses and negative cash flows from operations since inception. We expect to incur losses as we continue to develop and further refine and promote our technologies and potential product applications. As of February 28, 2021, the Company had $13,477,264 of cash and cash equivalents and short term investments on hand and working capital of $13,883,909. The Company believes that it currently has sufficient cash to meet its funding requirements over the next twelve months following the issuance of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. However, the Company has experienced and continues to experience negative cash flows from operations, as well as an ongoing requirement for substantial additional capital investment. The Company expects that it may need to raise additional capital to accomplish its business plan. If additional funding is required, the Company expects to seek to obtain that funding through financial or strategic investors. There can be no assurance as to the availability or terms upon which such financing and capital might be available.

 

NOTE 2 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

 

Information regarding the Company’s significant accounting policies is contained in Note 2, “Summary of significant accounting policies,” to the consolidated financial statements in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended August 31, 2020. Presented below and in the following notes is supplemental information that should be read in conjunction with “Notes to Financial Statements” in the Annual Report.

Fiscal quarter

 

The Company’s quarterly periods end on November 30, February 28, May 31, and August 31. The Company’s second quarter in fiscal 2021 and 2020 ended on February 28, 2021 and February 29, 2020, respectively.

 

Principles of consolidation

 

These consolidated financial statements presented are those of SolarWindow Technologies, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiaries, SolarWindow Asia (USA) Corp., and SolarWindow Asia Co. Ltd. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.

 

The Consolidated Financial Statements above include the results of operations for SolarWindow Asia from the date of its operations beginning in September 2020. During our fiscal quarter ended November 30, 2020, the Company made its initial capital infusion of $831,000 to SolarWindow Asia.

 

Use of estimates

 

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the accounting period. The Company considers its accounting policies relating to stock based compensation to be the most significant accounting policy that involves management estimates and judgments. The Company has made accounting estimates based on the facts and circumstances available as of the reporting date. Actual amounts could differ from these estimates, and such differences could be material.

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents and Highly Liquid Investments

 

Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand and highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less from the date of purchase.

 

   February 28, 2021  August 31, 2020
Cash and cash equivalents  $8,477,264   $14,151,523 
Short-term investment   5,000,000    - 
   $13,477,264   $14,151,523 

 

Short-term investments

 

The Company determines the balance sheet classification of its investments at the time of purchase and evaluates the classification at each balance sheet date. Money market funds, certificates of deposit, and time deposits with maturities of greater than three months but no more than twelve months are carried at cost, which approximates fair value and are recorded in the consolidated balance sheets in short-term investments. As of February 28, 2021, the short-term investment consists of a fixed-term deposit with a twelve month maturity at the time of purchase on October 1, 2020.

 

Recent accounting pronouncements not yet adopted

 

In December 2019, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2019-12, Income Taxes – Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes. The guidance removes certain exceptions for recognizing deferred taxes for equity method investments, performing intra period allocation, and calculating income taxes in interim periods. The ASU also adds guidance to reduce complexity in certain areas, including recognizing deferred taxes for goodwill and allocating taxes to members of a consolidated group, among others. This guidance is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2020. Early adoption of the standard is permitted, including adoption in interim or annual periods for which financial statements have not yet been issued. The transition requirements are dependent upon each amendment within this update and will be applied either prospectively or retrospectively. The adoption of ASU 2019-12 is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations, or cash flows. 

 

 7 

 

Recently adopted 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, 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 consolidated financial statements.

 

NOTE 3 – Property and Equipment

 

Property and equipment consists of the following:

 

   February 28,
2021
  August 31,
2020
  Increase /

During the three months ended February 21, 2021, furniture and fixtures, leasehold improvements and in-process equipment increased $15,579, $28,822 and $27,246, respectively, due to payments towards SolarWindow Asia office improvements.

 

As a result of the closure of the Vestal New York office, during our first fiscal quarter, , the Company disposed of office equipment, computers and furniture with an historical cost totaling $21,543 and net book value of $10,936. The Company received $2,161 of proceeds from the sale of the assets resulting in a loss of $8,775.

 

During the three months ended February 28, 2021 and February 29, 2020, the Company recognized depreciation expense of $6,673 and $6,218, respectively. During the six months ended February 28, 2021 and February 29, 2020, the Company recognized depreciation expense of $12,455 and $12,902, respectively.

 

NOTE 4 – Common Stock and Warrants

 

Common Stock

 

At February 28, 2021, the Company had 300,000,000 authorized shares of common stock with a par value of $0.001 per share, 53,196,799 shares of common stock outstanding

 

2006 Long-Term Incentive Plan

 

In 2006 the Company’s Board and stockholders adopted and approved 15,000,000 shares for grant under the 2006 Long-Term Incentive Plan (the “2006 Plan”). The 2006 Plan was extended by the Board on February 7, 2021 to expire two years hence. The 2006 Plan was adopted in order to attract and retain the best available personnel for positions of substantial authority and to provide additional incentive to employees and directors to promote the success of the Company’s business. The 2006 Plan provides for the grant of incentive stock options, non-qualified stock options, restricted stock, restricted stock units, stock appreciation rights, and other types of awards to employees, consultants, and directors. Stock option grants pursuant to the 2006 Plan vest from zero to five years and expire from six to ten years after the date of grant with the exercise price equal to the fair value of the underlying stock on the date of grant. 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. There are currently 7,040,527 shares reserved for issuance under the 2006 Plan, see “NOTE 5 - Stock Options” for additional information.

NOTE 5 - Stock Options

 

The Company measures share-based compensation cost on the grant date, based on the fair value of the award, and recognizes the expense on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period for awards expected to vest. The Company estimated the grant date fair value of stock options using a Black-Scholes valuation model using the following weighted-average assumptions:

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, 2021. 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 $15.10 on February 28, 2021 and all outstanding options have an exercise price below $15.10 per share, as of February 28, 2021, there is $75,046,959 and $44,988,139 of intrinsic value in the Company’s outstanding stock options and vested options, respectively.

 

Three and Six Months Ended February 28, 2021

COVID-19

 

In December 2019, an outbreak of the COVID-19 virus was reported in Wuhan, China. On March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization declared the COVID-19 virus a global pandemic and on March 13, 2020, President Donald J. Trump declared the virus a national emergency in the United States. This highly contagious disease has spread to most of the countries in the world and throughout the United States, creating a serious impact on customers, workforces and suppliers, disrupting economies and financial markets, and potentially leading to a world-wide economic downturn. It has caused a disruption of the normal operations of many businesses, including the temporary closure or scale-back of business operations and/or the imposition of either quarantine or remote work or meeting requirements for employees, either by government order or on a voluntary basis. The pandemic may adversely affect our operations, our employees and our employee productivity. It may also impact the ability of our subcontractors, partners, and suppliers to operate and fulfill their contractual obligations, and result in an increase in costs, delays or disruptions in performance. Our employees are working remotely and using various technologies to perform their functions. In reaction to the spread of COVID-19 in the United States, many businesses have instituted social distancing policies, including the closure of offices and worksites and deferring planned business activity. The disruption and volatility in the global and domestic capital markets may increase the cost of capital and limit our ability to access capital. Both the health and economic aspects of the COVID-19 virus are highly fluid and the future course of each is uncertain. For these reasons and other reasons that may come to light if the coronavirus pandemic and associated protective or preventative measures expand, we may experience a material adverse effect on our business operations, revenues and financial condition; however, its ultimate impact is highly uncertain and subject to change.

 

NOTE 9 - Net Income (Loss) Per Share

 

The computation of basic earnings per share (“EPS”) is based on the weighted average number of shares that were outstanding during the period, including shares of common stock that are issuable at the end of the reporting period. The computation of diluted EPS is based on the number of basic weighted-average shares outstanding plus the number of common shares that would be issued assuming the exercise of all potentially dilutive common shares outstanding using the treasury stock method. The computation of diluted net income per share does not assume conversion, exercise or contingent issuance of securities that would have an antidilutive effect on earnings per share. Therefore, when calculating EPS if the Company experienced a loss, there is no inclusion of dilutive securities as their inclusion in the EPS calculation is antidilutive. Furthermore, options and warrants will have a dilutive effect under the treasury stock method only when the average market price of the common stock during the period exceeds the exercise price of the options or warrants (they are in the money).

Overview

 

We are a developer of transparent electricity-generating coatings, and methods for their application to various materials (collectively, “LiquidElectricity™ Coatings”). When applied in ultra-thin layers to rigid glass, and flexible glass and plastic surfaces our LiquidElectricity™ Coatings transform otherwise ordinary surfaces into photovoltaic devices capable of generating electricity from natural sun, artificial light, and low, shaded, or reflected light conditions while maintaining transparency.

 

We have overcome major technical challenges and achieved many important milestones resulting in an expansion of the potential applications of LiquidElectricity™ Coatings which span multiple industries, including architectural, automotive, agrivoltaic, aerospace, commercial transportation and marine. Our LiquidElectricity™ Coatings are under development with support from commercial contract firms and at the U.S. Department of Energy’s National Renewable Energy Laboratory, through Cooperative Research and Development Agreements.

Research and Related Agreements

 

We are a party to certain agreements related to the development of our 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 our technology. Under terms of the NREL CRADA, NREL researchers 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, established by the Company. 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 March 6, 2013, we entered into Phase II of our NREL CRADA. Under the terms of the agreement, researchers will additionally work towards:

 

·further improving our technology efficiency and transparency;
·optimizing electrical power (current and voltage) output;
·optimizing the application of the active layer coatings and application processes which make it possible for LiquidElectricity™ Coatings to generate electricity on glass surfaces;
·developing improved electricity-generating coatings by enhancing performance, processing, reliability, and durability;
·optimizing LiquidElectricity™ Coating performance on flexible substrates; and
·developing high speed and large area roll-to-roll (R2R) and sheet-to-sheet (S2S) coating application methods required for commercial-scale building integrated photovoltaic (“BIPV”) products and windows.

 

On December 28, 2015, we entered into another modification to the NREL CRADA (the “Modification”). Under the Modification, (i) the date of completion was extended to December 2019; and (ii) the Company and the NREL will work jointly towards achieving specific product development goals and objectives for the purpose of preparing to commercialize our OPV-based transparent electricity-generating coatings for various applications, including BIPV, glass and flexible plastics.

 

Over the course of our collaborative research and development efforts with the NREL under the CRADA, both parties have agreed to modifications to extend the date of completion. The Company and NREL have entered into eight such No Cost Time Extensions (“NCTE”). Under the terms of each NCTE, all terms and conditions of the NREL CRADA remain in full force and effect without change. The current NCTE was executed on September 15, 2020 and extends the date of completion to December 31, 2021. As of February 28, 2021, the Company had a capitalized asset balance of $346,837 related to deferred research and development costs for advances to Alliance for Sustainable Energy for work to be performed under the NREL CRADA.

 

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

 

On March 15, 2018 the Company was awarded it’s first-ever AMM CRADA by the DOE EERE AMO. SolarWindow was awarded the AMM CRADA after submitting a proposal outlining its coating technologies and fabrication methods to the DOE’s Roll-to-Roll Advanced Materials Manufacturing Consortium, led by ORNL and partnering with ANL, LBNL, and NREL. The AMM CRADA will be carried out with the DOE by SolarWindow, ANL, and NREL.

 

On September 15, 2020, we entered into NCTE that extends the date of completion to December 31, 2021 pursuant to which researchers work towards specific product development goals outlined in the AMM CRADA.

 

Through the developments of AMM CRADA, the Company accomplished initiatives to improve and optimize its laser patterning system and methods of fabrication for application of our electricity-generating coatings on flexible plastics. Once optimized for industry, this advancement is expected to reduce process time, improve device performance, and reduce the costs of LiquidElectricity™ Coating based plastic products. Another objective of the AMM CRADA is to develop and demonstrate a unique high-throughput process methodology for semitransparent OPV modules compatible with high process speeds for many different advanced material manufacturing systems.

Results of Operations

 

Our operating results for the fiscal quarter ended February 28, 2021 may not be indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending August 31, 2021 because of the COVID-19 pandemic and other potential beneficial or detrimental unforeseen occurrences. In addition, our quarterly results of operations have varied in the past and are likely to do so again in the future. As such, we believe that period-to-period comparisons of our results of operations should not be relied upon as an indication of our future performance.

 

The following tables present the components of our consolidated results of operations for the periods indicated:

Comparison of the three and six months ended February 28, 2021, to the three and six months ended February 29, 2020

 

Selling, General and Administrative

 

Selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) 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. During the three months ended February 28, 2021 compared to the three months ended February 29, 2020, SG&A costs increased due primarily to a $38,463 increase in personnel costs and $61,885 increase in other administrative costs offset by a decrease of $28,901 in professional fees. During the six months ended February 28, 2021 compared to the three months ended February 29, 2020, SG&A costs increased due primarily to a $56,713 increase in personnel costs and $131,344 increase in other administrative costs offset by a decrease of $99,209 in professional fees.

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. During the three months ended February 28, 2021 compared to the three months ended February 29, 2020, R&D costs decreased as a result of a $36,598 decrease in CRADA costs and $61,867 decrease in personnel costs and $30,225 decrease in other R&D related costs. During the six months ended February 28, 2021 compared to the three months ended February 29, 2020, R&D costs decreased as a result of a $87,776 decrease in CRADA costs, $55,280 decrease in personnel costs and $72,726 decrease in other R&D related costs.

 

Stock Based Compensation

 

The Company grants stock options to its Directors, employees and consultants. Stock compensation represents the expense associated with the amortization of our stock options. 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 based compensation expense increased due primarily to the Company entering into an Executive Consulting Agreement with each of Mr. Jatinder S. Bhogal, CEO and Chairman and Mr. John Rhee, President and Director, pursuant to which each party was granted 2,500,000 stock purchase options in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2020.

Loss on disposal of assets   (8,775)   -    (8,775)
Total other income (expense)  $13,893   $168,348   $(154,455)

 

Interest income relates to the interest earned on our cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments. We experienced a decrease over the prior year primarily due to a decrease in the rate of interest earned. The loss on disposal of fixed assets relates to the closing of the Vestal, New York office and related disposal of office equipment and furniture.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

Our primary cash needs are for personnel, professional and development related fees and insurance. Our principal sources of liquidity are cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments. As of February 28, 2021 and August 31, 2020, we had cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments of $13,477,264 and $14,151,523, respectively. We have financed our operations primarily from the sale of equity and debt securities. We expect the cost of funding the South Korea office to be approximately $850,000 over the twelve months ending August 31, 2021.

 

The following table presents a summary of our cash flows for the periods indicated:

 

   Six Months Ended
February 28, 2021
  Six Months Ended
February 29, 2020
  2021 compared
to 2020
Net cash used in operating activities  $(1,316,951)  $(1,458,926)  $141,975

Net (decrease) in cash and cash equivalents  $(5,674,259)  $(1,463,957)  $(4,210,302)

 

Operating Activities

 

Operating activities consist of net loss adjusted for certain non-cash items, including depreciation, non-cash lease expense, stock-based compensation expense, realized gains or losses on disposal of property and equipment, and the effect of working capital changes. The decrease over the prior period is mainly due to the timing of working capital accounts.

 

Investing Activities

 

We have used cash primarily for short-term investments, investments in property and equipment, and, to a lesser extent, for the purchase of furniture, office equipment, leasehold improvements to our Korean offices and computers and software. Net investment activities for capital expenditures were $71,647 during the six months ended February 28, 2021, compared to $5,031 during the six months ended February 29, 2020. Also, during the six months ended February 28, 2021, we purchased a twelve month term deposit in the amount of $5,000,000.

 

Financing Activities

 

Cash flows from financing activities totaled $719,400 as a result of the exercise of 200,000 Series S Warrants with a strike price of $3.42 per share and the exercise of 10,000 stock options at a strike price of $3.54 per share.

Critical Accounting Policies and Significant Judgments’ and Use of Estimates

 

Management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations is based upon our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. The preparation of these consolidated financial statements required the use of estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of our assets, liabilities, and expenses. Management bases estimates on historical experience and other assumptions it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances and evaluates these estimates on an on-going basis. Actual results may differ from these estimates. There have been no significant changes to the critical accounting policies and estimates included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended August 31, 2020.
