6,000,000 SHARES
NEW ENERGY TECHNOLOGIES, INC. COMMON STOCK
This prospectus relates to the resale by Kalen Capital Corporation, a private corporation organized under the laws of the Province of Alberta (the "Selling Stockholder") of a maximum of 6,000,000 shares (collectively, the "Shares") of our common stock, par value $0.001. The Shares being offered under this prospectus are comprised of:
(a) | up to 3,503,042 shares of common stock issuable as part of the Units upon conversion of the Convertible Note in the principal amount of $3,000,000, which we issued to the Selling Stockholder as part of a loan made to us by the Selling Stockholder on October 7, 2013; and |
| |
(b) | 2,496,958 shares of common stock previously purchased by the Selling Stockholder from us or our affiliates in transactions exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act. |
Although we will pay substantially all the expenses incident to the registration of the Shares we will not receive any proceeds from the sales by the Selling Stockholder.
The Selling Stockholder and any underwriter, broker-dealer or agent that participates in the sale of the hares or interests therein may be deemed "underwriters" within the meaning of Section 2(a)(11) of the Securities Act. Any discounts, commissions, concessions, profit or other compensation any of them earns on any sale or resale of the shares, directly or indirectly, may be underwriting discounts and commissions under the Securities Act. If the Selling Stockholder is determined to be an "underwriter" within the meaning of Section 2(a)(11) of the Securities Act it will be subject to the prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act.
Our common stock is presently quoted for trading under the symbol "WNDW" on the OTC Markets Group Inc. QBTM tier (the "OTCQB"). On December 24, 2015, the closing price of the common stock, as reported on the OTCQB was $4.23 per share. The Selling Stockholder has advised us that it will sell the shares of common stock registered hereunder from time to time in the open market, on the OTCQB, in privately negotiated transactions or a combination of these methods, at market prices prevailing at the time of sale, at prices related to the prevailing market prices, at negotiated prices, or otherwise as described under the section of this prospectus titled "Plan of Distribution."
The purchase of the shares offered through this prospectus involves a high degree of risk. Please refer to "Risk Factors" beginning on page 8.
Neither the Securities and Exchange Commission nor any state securities commission has approved or disapproved of these securities or passed upon the adequacy or accuracy of this prospectus. Any representation to the contrary is a criminal offense.

PROSPECTUS SUMMARY
This summary highlights certain information that we present more fully in the rest of this prospectus. This summary does not contain all of the information you should consider before investing in the securities offered pursuant to this prospectus. You should read the entire prospectus carefully, including the "Risk Factors," "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" and our financial statements and related notes, before making an investment decision.
Except where the context otherwise requires and for purposes of this prospectus only, "we," "us," "our," "Company," "our Company," and "SolarWindow" refer to SolarWindow Technologies, Inc., a Nevada corporation, and its consolidated subsidiaries.
Our Company
We were incorporated in the State of Nevada on May 5, 1998, under the name "Octillion Corp." On December 2, 2008, we amended our Articles of Incorporation to effect a change of name to New Energy Technologies, Inc. Effective as of March 9, 2015, we amended our Articles of Incorporation to change our name to SolarWindow Technologies, Inc. The accompanying consolidated financial statements include our accounts and those of our wholly owned subsidiaries.
We have been developing two (2) sustainable electricity generating systems. These novel technologies are branded as SolarWindow™ and MotionPower™. On March 2, 2015, we announced that we will exclusively focus on further developing and bringing to market products derived from our SolarWindow™ technology.
At the time of this filing, our proprietary patent-pending SolarWindow™ transparent electricity-generating coatings are the subject of 14 U.S. and international patent filings.
Our SolarWindow™ technology provides the ability to harvest light energy from the sun and artificial sources and generate electricity from a see-through, semi-transparent, coating of organic photovoltaic ("OPV") solar cells applied to glass and plastics. Our SolarWindow™ technology is the subject of a patent pending technology. Initially being developed for application on glass surfaces, SolarWindow™ could potentially be used on any of the more than 85 million commercial and residential buildings in the United States alone.

Our website is www.solarwindow.com. Information contained on our web site (or any other website) does not constitute part of this prospectus.
Risk Factors
Our business operations are subject to numerous risks, including the risk of delays in or discontinuation of our research and development due to lack of financing, inability to obtain necessary regulatory approvals to market the products, unforeseen safety issues relating to the products and dependence on third party collaborators to conduct research and development of the products. Because we are an early stage company with a limited history of operations, we are also subject to many risks associated with early-stage companies. For a more detailed discussion of some of the risks you should consider, you are urged to carefully review and consider the section entitled "Risk Factors" beginning on page 8 of this prospectus.

RISK FACTORS
An investment in our securities involves a high degree of risk. You should carefully consider the risks described below before purchasing any Shares. If any of the following risks actually occur, our business, financial condition, or results of operations could be materially adversely affected, the trading price of our common stock could decline, and you may lose all or part of your investment. You should acquire the Units only if you can afford to lose your entire investment. You should also refer to the other information contained in this prospectus, including our financial statements and the notes to those statements, and the information set forth under the caption "Forward Looking Statements." The risks described below and contained in our other periodic reports are not the only ones that we face. Additional risks not presently known to us or that we currently deem immaterial may also adversely affect our business operations.
Risks Related To Our Business
We have experienced significant losses, have not generated any revenues, expect losses to continue for the foreseeable future and our auditors have issued a going concern explanation in their report on our most recent audited financial statements.
We have not generated any revenue since inception and do not expect to generate any revenue for the foreseeable future. We had a net loss of $8,092,744 and $3,892,381 for our fiscal years ended August 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively, and we have incurred a cumulative deficit of $29,039,014 from inception (May 5, 1998) through August 31, 2015. We anticipate incurring losses through at least December 2016. As a result of our recurring losses from operations and substantial accumulated deficit, our independent registered public accounting firm included an explanatory paragraph relating to our ability to continue as a going concern in its report on our audited consolidated financial statements for our fiscal year ended August 31, 2015.
The sale by our stockholders of restricted shares, either pursuant to a resale prospectus or Rule 144, may adversely affect our ability to raise the funds we will require to effectuate our business plan.
As of the date of this prospectus, we had 26,854,721 shares issued and outstanding, of which 7,446,802 are deemed "restricted securities" within the meaning of Rule 144, as promulgated under the Securities Act ("Rule 144"). The possibility that substantial amounts of our common stock may be sold into the public market, either under Rule 144, or pursuant to a resale registration statement, may adversely affect prevailing market prices for the common stock and could impair our ability to raise capital in the future through the sale of equity securities because of the perception that future resales could decrease our stock price and because of the availability of resale shares to those interested in investing in our common stock.
We may require additional financing to expand, accelerate or sustain our current level of operations beyond February 2016, and failure to obtain such financing would have a material adverse effect on our business, operating results, financial condition and prospects.
As of August 31, 2015, we had cash and cash equivalents of $228,465. We anticipate that we will remain engaged in research and product development activities at least through December 2016. Based upon our current level of operations and expenditures, we believe that absent any modification or expansion of our existing research, development and testing activities, cash on hand should be sufficient to enable us to continue operations through February 2016. There is no assurance that we will be able to generate revenue and achieve profitability or secure additional financing once our current cash balance is depleted. Any significant expansion in scope or acceleration in timing of our current research and development activities, or commencement of any marketing and sales activities, will require additional funds.
If adequate funds, including proceeds, if any, from this offering are not available on reasonable terms or at all, it would result in a material adverse effect on our business, operating results, financial condition and prospects. In particular, we may be required to delay, reduce the scope of or terminate one or more of our research programs, sell rights to our SolarWindow™ technology or other technologies or products based upon such technologies, or license the rights to such technologies or products on terms that are less favorable to us than might otherwise be available. If we raise additional funds by issuing equity or debt securities, further dilution to stockholders may result and new investors could have rights superior to existing stockholders.
Even if financing is available to us, because we cannot currently estimate the amount of funds or time required to commercialize our technologies, we may secure less funding than is actually required to effectuate our business plan.
We are currently in the advanced stages of our research and development and have come to the point where larger and faster equipment is necessary for development to continue and to be able to come to market with a commercially viable product; however, we cannot accurately predict the amount of funding or the time required to successfully commercialize the SolarWindow™ technology. The actual cost and time required to commercialize these technologies may vary significantly depending on, among other things, the results of our research and development efforts, the cost of developing, acquiring, or licensing various enabling technologies, changes in the focus and direction of our research and development 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.
We may compete for the time and efforts of our officers and directors.
Certain of our officers and directors are also officers, directors, and employees of other companies, and we may have to compete with the other companies for their time, attention and efforts. Except for Mr. John A. Conklin, our President and Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer and a director, none of our directors anticipate devoting more than approximately five (5%) percent of their working time to our matters.
The success of our research and development activities is uncertain. If such efforts are not successful, we will be unable to generate revenues from our operations and we mayhave to cease doing business.
Commercialization of the SolarWindow™ technology will require significant further research, development and testing as we must ascertain whether the SolarWindow™ technology can form the basis for a commercially viable technology or product. If our research and development fails to prove commercial viability of the SolarWindow™ technology, we may need to abandon our business model and/or cease doing business, in which case our shares may have no value and you may lose your investment. We anticipate we will remain engaged in development through at least December 2016.
The development of the SolarWindow™ technology is subject to the risks of failure inherent to the development of any novel technology.
Ultimately, the development and commercialization of the SolarWindow™ technology is subject to a number of risks that are particular to the development and commercialization of any novel technology. These risks include, but are not limited to, the following:
| · | our research and development efforts may not produce a commercially viable product; |
| · | we may fail to maintain license rights to the SolarWindow™ technology (or any of its derivatives); |
| · | we may fail to develop, acquire, or license various enabling technologies that may be integral to the commercialization of the SolarWindow™ (or any of its derivatives); |
| · | the SolarWindow™ technology (or any of its derivatives) may ultimately prove to be ineffective, unsafe or otherwise fail to receive necessary regulatory approvals; |
| · | the SolarWindow™ technology (or any of its derivatives), even if safe and effective, may be difficult to manufacture on a large scale or uneconomical to market; |
| · | our marketing license or proprietary rights to products derived from the SolarWindow™ technology may not be sufficient to protect our products from competitors; |
| · | the proprietary rights of third parties may preclude us or our collaborators from making, using or marketing products utilizing the SolarWindow™ technology; or, |
| · | third parties may market superior, more effective, or less expensive technologies or products having comparable results to the SolarWindow™ (or any of its derivatives). |
If we ultimately do not obtain the necessary regulatory approvals for the commercialization of theSolarWindow™ technology, we will not achieve profitable operations and your investment may be lost.
In order to commercialize the SolarWindowTM technology, we may need to obtain regulatory approval from various local, state, federal or international agencies. At this time, we do not have a product to be submitted for regulatory approval. The process for obtaining such regulatory approvals may be time consuming and costly, and there is no guaranty that we will be able to obtain such approvals. The failure to obtain any necessary regulatory approvals could delay or prevent us from achieving profitability, which could result in the total loss of your investment.
Our ability to operate profitably is directly related to our ability to develop, protect and perfect rights in and to our proprietary technology.
We rely on a combination of trademark, trade secret, nondisclosure, copyright and patent law to protect our SolarWindow™ technology, which may afford only limited protection.
We may initiate claims or litigation against third parties for infringement of our proprietary rights or to establish the validity, scope or enforceability of our proprietary rights. Any such claims could be time consuming, result in costly litigation, or force us to enter into royalty or license agreements rather than dispute the merits of such claims, requiring us to pay royalties and/or license fees to third parties. There is always a risk that patents, if issued, may be subsequently invalidated, either in whole or in part and this could diminish or extinguish protection for any technology we may license or may adversely affect our ability to fully commercialize our technologies.
We generally require our subsidiaries and our employees, consultants, advisors and collaborators to execute appropriate agreements with us, regarding the confidential information developed or made known to such persons during the course of their engagement by us. These agreements provide that any proprietary technologies developed during such engagement are owned by us and that confidential information pertaining to such technologies will be kept confidential and not disclosed to third parties except in specific circumstances. These agreements also provide for the assignment to us by any such person of any patents issued with respect to any such technologies. If these provisions are breached, we may not be able to fully perfect our rights to the technologies in question, and in some instances, we may not have an appropriate remedy available for the damages that we may incur as a result of any such breach.
We may be accused of infringing the intellectual property rights of others.
We cannot guarantee that we will not become the subject of infringement claims or legal proceedings by third parties with respect to our current programs or future technology developments. Any such claims could be time consuming, result in costly litigation and could ultimately lead to a determination that the SolarWindow™ technology, or any of its derivatives, infringe on a third party's patent rights.
If we fail to obtain additional licenses in the future required to maintain our rights to market products developed, if any, we may need to curtail or cease operations.
We may not retain all rights to developments, inventions, patents and other proprietary information resulting from any collaborative arrangements, whether in effect as of the date hereof or which may be entered into at some future time with third parties. As a result, we may be required to license such developments, inventions, patents or other proprietary information from such third parties, possibly at significant cost to us. Our failure to obtain and maintain any such licenses could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of our operations. In particular, the failure to obtain a license could prevent us from using or commercializing our technology.
Compliance with environmental regulations, or dealing with harmful or hazardous materials involved in our research and development, may require us to divert our limited capital resources.
Our research and development programs do not generally involve the handling of harmful or hazardous materials, but they may occasionally do so. Accordingly, we may become subject to federal, state and local laws and regulations governing the use, handling, storage and disposal of hazardous and biological materials. If violations of environmental, health and safety laws occur, we could be held liable for damages, penalties and costs of remedial actions. These expenses or this liability could have a significant negative impact on our business, financial condition and results of operations. We may violate environmental, health and safety laws in the future as a result of human error, equipment failure or other causes. Environmental laws could become more stringent over time, imposing greater compliance costs and increasing risks and penalties associated with violations. We may be subject to potentially conflicting and changing regulatory agendas of political, business and environmental groups. Changes to or restrictions on permitting requirements or processes, hazardous or biological material storage or handling might require an unplanned capital investment or relocation. Failure to comply with new or existing laws or regulations could harm our business, financial condition and results of operations. We do not have any insurance coverage with respect to damages or liabilities we may incur as a result of these activities.
In seeking to acquire or develop technologies,weare operating in highly competitive markets and our competitors enjoy numerous competitive advantages over us.
Our commercial success will depend on our ability to compete effectively in product development areas such as, but not limited to, safety, efficacy, ease of use, customer compliance, price, marketing and distribution. Our competitors may succeed in developing products that are more effective than any products derived from our research and development efforts or that would render such products obsolete and non-competitive. The alternative energy industry is characterized by intense competition, rapid product development and technological change. Most of the competition that we encounter is expected to come from companies, research institutions and universities who are researching and developing technologies and products similar to or competitive with any we may develop.
These companies enjoy numerous competitive advantages, including:
| · | significantly greater name recognition; |
| · | established relations with customers; |
| · | established distribution networks; |
| · | more advanced technologies and product development; |
| · | additional lines of products, and the ability to offer rebates, higher discounts or incentives to gain a competitive advantage; |
| · | greater experience in conducting research and development, manufacturing, obtaining regulatory approval for products, and marketing approved products; |
| · | greater financial and human resources for product development, sales and marketing, and |
| · | the ability to endure potentially prolonged patent litigation. |
As a result, we may not be able to compete effectively against these companies or their products.
Any products developed from our SolarWindow™technology will face competition from other companies producing solar power and/or energy harvesting products.
The solar power market is intensely competitive and rapidly evolving. The energy harvesting market is not well-defined, immature, and evolving with uncertainty. When, or if, this market matures, it may also be intensely competitive.
Our competitors are better capitalized, have established market positions, and if we fail to attract and retain customers and establish a successful distribution network for our solar products, we may be unable to achieve adequate sales and market share. There are a number of major multi-national corporations that produce solar power and alternative energy products, which may be competitive with those that we are seeking to develop, including Heliatek, Dyetec Solar, Dysol, Solarmer Energy, BP Solar, Kyocera, Sharp, GE, Mitsubishi, Solar World AG and Sanyo, Eight19, Ubiquitous Energy, Oxford Photovoltaics, ONYX Solar, among others. We also expect that future competition will include new entrants to the solar power market offering new technological solutions. Further, many of our competitors are developing and are currently producing products based on new solar power and alternative energy technologies that may have costs similar to, or lower than, our projected costs.
Technological changes could render our products uncompetitive or obsolete, which could prevent us from achieving market share and sales.
Our failure to refine our technologies and to develop and introduce new products could cause our products to become uncompetitive or obsolete, which could prevent us from achieving market share and sales. The alternative energy industry is rapidly evolving and highly competitive. We will need to invest significant financial resources in research and development to keep pace with technological advances in the industry and to compete in the future and we may be unable to secure such financing. We believe that a variety of competing solar and alternative energy technologies may be under development by other companies that could result in lower manufacturing costs or higher product performance than those expected for our products. Our development efforts may be rendered obsolete by the technological advances of others, and other technologies may prove more advantageous for the commercialization of products.
To the extent we are able to develop and commercialize products based upon or derived from the SolarWindow™ technology, if such products do not gain market acceptance, we may not achieve sales and market share.
The development of a successful market for our products may be adversely affected by a number of factors, some of which are beyond our control, including:
| · | customer acceptance of our products; |
| · | our failure to produce products that compete favorably against other alternative energy and solar-photovoltaic power products on the basis of cost, quality and performance; |
| · | our failure to produce products that compete favorably against conventional energy sources and alternative distributed-generation technologies, such as wind, biomass and solar thermal, on the basis of cost, quality and performance; |
| · | performance and reliability of our products as compared with conventional and alternative energy products; |
| · | our failure to qualify for and secure government reimbursements, tax incentives and any other financial subsidies that may be available to consumers for the implementation of alternative energy technologies such as solar systems at such time as our products become available for commercial sale, and which potential customers for our products may reasonably expect; and |
| · | our failure to develop and maintain successful relationships with manufacturers, distributors, and other resellers, as well as strategic partners. |
If our products fail to gain market acceptance, we will be unable to achieve sales and market share.
If solar-photovoltaic harvesting technologies are not suitable for widespread adoption or sufficient demand for such products does not develop or takes longer to develop than we anticipate, we may not be able to profitably exploit the SolarWindow™ technology.
The market for OPV solar-energy related products is emerging and rapidly evolving, and the market for energy harvesting products is generally unproven and not yet established. The success of products for these markets is uncertain.
If our solar power or energy harvesting technologies prove unsuitable for widespread commercial deployment or if demand for such power products fails to develop sufficiently, we would be unable to achieve sales and market share. In addition, demand for such products in the particular markets and geographic regions we target may not develop or may develop more slowly than we anticipate. Many factors will influence the widespread adoption of solar and energy capture and conversion products, including:
| · | cost-effectiveness of such technologies as compared with conventional and competitive alternative energy technologies; |
| · | performance and reliability of such products as compared with conventional and competitive alternative energy products; |
| · | success of other alternative energy technologies such as hydrogen fuel cells, wind turbines, bio-diesel generators and solar thermal technologies; |
| · | public concern regarding energy security, the potential risks associated with global warming, the environmental and social impacts of fossil fuel extraction and use; |
| · | fluctuations in economic and market conditions that impact the viability of conventional and competitive alternative energy sources; |
| · | increases or decreases in the prices of oil, coal and natural gas; |
| · | capital expenditures by customers, which tend to decrease when domestic or foreign economies slow; |
| · | continued deregulation of the electric power industry and broader energy industry; and |
| · | availability of government subsidies and incentives. |
Our growth and success, and that of the SolarWindow™ technologies and products, depends on our ability to develop new products and services and adapt to market and customer needs.
The sectors in which we operate experience rapid and significant changes due to the introduction of innovative technologies. Introducing new technology products and innovative services, which we must do on an ongoing basis to meet customers' needs, requires a significant commitment to research and development, which may not result in success. We are a pre-revenue and may suffer if it invests in technologies that do not function as expected or are not accepted in the marketplace or if its products, systems or service offers are not brought to market in a timely manner, become obsolete or are not responsive to our customers' requirements.
Our business model and strategy involves growth through acquisitions, joint ventures and mergers that may be difficult to execute.
Our business model and strategy involves growth through acquisitions, joint ventures and mergers. External growth transactions are inherently risky because of the difficulties that may arise in integrating people, operations, technologies and products, and the related acquisition, administrative and other costs.
We are dependent upon hiring and retaining highly qualified management and technical personnel.
Competition for highly qualified management and technical personnel is intense in our industry. Future success depends in part on our ability to hire, assimilate and retain engineers, salespeople and other qualified personnel, especially in the area of OPV with focus in our SolarWindow™ technologies and products. A key risk is our ability to anticipate their needs for certain key competences and to implement HR solutions to recruit or improve these competences. We believe that two (2) key competences required in the near term are a PhD OPV Scientist and a Chief Financial Officer.
We may be the subject of product liability claims and other adverse effects due to defective products, design faults or harm caused to persons and property.
Despite our development, testing, and quality procedures, our SolarWindow™ products might not operate properly or might contain design faults or defects, which could give rise to disputes in respect of its liability. Product liability related to defective products could lead to a loss of revenue, claims under warranty and legal proceedings. Such disputes could result in a fall-off in demand or harm our reputation for safety and quality.
Our SolarWindow™ technology and products will be subject to environmental, occupational safety & hygiene, Underwriter laboratory, electrical codes, and other state and federal, EU, and other Country regulations.
Our SolarWindow™ technologies and products are will subject to extensive and increasingly stringent environmental, occupational safety & health, Underwriter Laboratory, electrical codes, and other state and federal, EU laws and regulations ("Laws & Regulations"). There can be no guarantee that we will not be required to pay significant fines or compensation as a result of past, current or future breaches of Laws & Regulations. This exposure exists even if we are not responsible for the breaches, in cases where they were committed in the past by companies or businesses that were not part of ours that may be exposed to the risk of claims for breaches of these Laws & Regulations. Such claims could adversely affect our financial position and reputation, despite the efforts and investments made to comply at all times with all applicable Laws & Regulations. If we fail to conduct its businesses in full compliance with the applicable Laws & Regulations, the judicial or regulatory authorities could require us to conduct investigations and/or implement costly curative measures.
Our business faces significant risks related to interest rate, State & Federal subsidies, modified accelerated cost recovery system, taxes, depreciation, etc.
Our Financial and Revenue Modeling and Estimates are exposed to risks associated with the effect of changing interest rates, State & Federal subsidies, modified accelerated cost recovery system (MACRS), taxes, depreciation, renewable energy tax credits, etc. risk. These risks affect borrowings; return on investment (ROI), internal rate of return (IRR) or economic rate of return (ERR), etc. and the ability to borrow or raise capital to secure deployment funding. If any of these Financial and Revenue Modeling and Estimation parameters fail to exist, cease to be available, or diminish in any way, our Financial and Revenue Modeling and Estimates may not be accurate or reveal profitability, or favorable ROI and/or IRR necessary for SolarWindow™ technology or related product deployment.
Our financial model may prove to be inaccurate and our SolarWindow™ technology or related products may not be cost effective.
Although our independently verified financial model has shown that our SolarWindow™ technology can provide a one year payback, it is based upon a number of assumptions that may not prove accurate. If the financial model is inaccurate our SolarWindow™ technology or related product may not provide potential customers with sufficient ROI to be a cost effective alternative to other available products.
An increase in raw material prices could have negative consequences on our long-term profitability.
We face exposure to fluctuations in energy, raw and chemical material, and glass and plastic film prices. If we are not able to hedge, compensate or pass on our increased costs to customers, this could have an adverse impact on its financial results and stability, and deployment of SolarWindow™ technologies or products.
We lack sales and marketing experience and will likely rely on third party marketers.
We have limited experience in sales, marketing or distribution of photovoltaic and energy capture and conversion products. We expect to market and sell or otherwise commercialize the SolarWindow™ technology (or any of its derivatives) through distribution, co-marketing, co-promotion or licensing arrangements with third parties. Therefore, any revenues received by us will be dependent on the efforts of third parties. If any such parties breach or terminate their agreements with us or otherwise fail to conduct marketing activities successfully and in a timely manner, the commercialization of the SolarWindow™ technology (or any of its derivatives) would be delayed or terminated, which would adversely affect our ability to generate revenues and our profitability.
Risks Related To Ownership of Our Common Stock and This Offering
The trading price of our common stock historically has been volatile and may not reflect its actual value.
The trading price of our common stock has, from time to time, fluctuated widely and in the future may be subject to similar fluctuations. The trading price may be affected by a number of factors including the risk factors set forth herein, as well as our operating results, financial condition, general economic our control. In recent years, broad stock market indices in general, and smaller capitalization companies in particular, have experienced substantial price fluctuations. In a volatile market, we may experience wide fluctuations in the market price of our common stock. These fluctuations may have a negative effect on the market price of our common stock. In addition, the sale of our common stock into the public market upon the effectiveness of this registration statement could put downward pressure on the trading price of our common stock.
Our common stock is a penny stock and is not traded on a national securities exchange, therefore you may find it difficult to sell the shares of our common stock you acquire in this offering.
Our common stock is traded on the OTCQB. The OTCQB is viewed by most investors as a less desirable, and less liquid, marketplace. As a result, an investor may find it more difficult to purchase, dispose of or obtain accurate quotations as to the value of our common stock.
Additionally, our common stock is subject to regulations of the SEC applicable to "penny stock." Penny stock includes any non-NASDAQ equity security that has a market price of less than $5.00 per share, subject to certain exceptions. Rules 15g-1 through 15g-9 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), imposes certain sales practice requirements on broker-dealers who sell our common stock to persons other than established customers and "accredited investors" (as defined in Rule 501(c) of the Securities Act). For transactions covered by this rule, a broker-dealer must make a special suitability determination for the purchaser and have received the purchaser's written consent to the transaction prior to the sale. This rule adversely affects the ability of broker-dealers to sell our common stock and purchasers of our common stock to sell their shares of our common stock.
In addition, the penny stock regulations require that prior to any non-exempt buy/sell transaction in a penny stock, a disclosure schedule proscribed by the SEC relating to the penny stock market must be delivered by a broker-dealer to the purchaser of such penny stock. This disclosure must include the amount of commissions payable to both the broker-dealer and the registered representative and current price quotations for our common stock. The regulations also require that monthly statements be sent to holders of penny stock that disclose recent price information for the penny stock and information of the limited market for penny stocks. These requirements adversely affect the market liquidity of our common stock.
Although our common stock is currently quoted on the OTCQB, if we do not meet or comply with the recent changes to the OTCQB our shares may be delisted from the OTCQB and would likely be traded on the OTC Pink (aka the Pink Sheets).
Although our common stockis currently quoted on the OTCQB, effective as of May 1, 2014, the OTC Markets Group Inc. changed its rules for OTCQB eligibility. To be eligible for OTCQB, companies will be required to:
| · | Meet a minimum bid price test of $0.01. Securities that do not meet the minimum bid price test will be downgraded to OTC Pink; |
| · | Submit an application to OTCQB and pay an application and annual fee; and |
| · | Submit an OTCQB Annual Certification confirming the Company Profile displayed on www.otcmarkets.com is current and complete and providing additional information on officers, directors, and controlling shareholders. |
Management has not yet determined whether it will submit the required application and pay the associated fees to remain quoted on the OTCQB. In the event we do not submit an application and pay those fees our common stock will likely be downgraded to the OTC Pink, which could adversely affect the market liquidity of our common stock.
Kalen Capital Corporation ("KCC"), a private corporation solely owned by Mr. Harmel S. Rayat, a former office r and director and director of ours, beneficially owns approximately 55% of our issued and outstanding stock. This ownership interest may preclude you from influencing significant corporate decisions.
As of December 7, 2015, KCC, a private corporation solely owned by Harmel S. Rayat, beneficially owned approximately 21,682,541 shares (including shares issuable upon exercise of outstanding warrants, conversion of the Convertible Note and the exercise of the warrants included upon conversion thereof), or approximately 55%, of our outstanding common stock. On October 7, 2013, we received a loan in the principal amount of $3,000,000 from KCC and issued the Convertible Note, as amended pursuant to the Amended Bridge Loan Agreement (the "Amended BLA, which if converted on December 7, 2015 in the full amount, including all accrued interest, at $1.37 per Unit, would result in the issuance of an additional 2,545,753 shares of our common stock and a warrant to purchase up to an additional 2,545,753 shares of our common stock. As a result, Mr. Rayat may be able to exercise significant influence over matters requiring stockholder approval, including the election of directors and approval of significant corporate transactions, and will have significant control over our management and policies. Mr. Rayat's interests may be different from yours. For example, he may support proposals and actions with which you may disagree or which are not in your interest. This concentration of ownership could delay or prevent a change in control of our company or otherwise discourage a potential acquirer from attempting to obtain control of our company, which in turn could reduce the price of our common stock. In addition, Mr. Rayat could use his voting influence to maintain our existing management and directors in office, or support or reject other management and Board proposals that are subject to stockholder approval, such as the adoption of employee stock plans and significant unregistered financing transactions.
Trusts established for the benefit of Mr. Rayat's children collectively beneficially own approximately 19% of our issued and outstanding stock, if these trusts vote together with KCC their ownership interest may preclude you from influencing significant corporate decisions.
1420524 Alberta Ltd. and 1420468 Alberta Ltd. are trusts established for the benefit of Kalen Rayat and Talia Rayat, respectively, Mr. Rayat's children; together these trusts beneficially own approximately 19% of our issued and outstanding stock (including shares issuable upon exercise of outstanding warrants). Although Mr. Rayat has disclaimed beneficial ownership of the shares owned by these trusts, if the trusts vote together with KCC they may be able to exercise significant influence over matters requiring stockholder approval, including the election of directors and approval of significant corporate transactions, and will have significant control over our management and policies. Their interests may be different from yours. This concentration of ownership could delay or prevent a change in control of our company or otherwise discourage a potential acquirer from attempting to obtain control of our company, which in turn could reduce the price of our common stock. In addition, they could use their voting influence to maintain our existing management and directors in office, or support or reject other management and Board proposals that are subject to stockholder approval, such as the adoption of employee stock plans and significant unregistered financing transactions.

The sale by our stockholders of restricted shares, either pursuant to a resale prospectus or Rule 144, may adversely affect our ability to raise the funds we will require to effectuate our business plan.
As of the date of this prospectus, we had 26,854,721 shares issued and outstanding, of which 7,446,802 are deemed "restricted securities" within the meaning of Rule 144. The possibility that substantial amounts of our common stock may be sold into the public market, either under Rule 144, or pursuant to a resale registration statement, may adversely affect prevailing market prices for the common stock and could impair our ability to raise capital in the future through the sale of equity securities because of the perception that future resales could decrease our stock price and because of the availability of resale shares to those interested in investing in our common stock.

We are not subject to compliance with rules requiring the adoption of certain corporate governance measures, which may limit the protections shareholders have against related party transactions, conflicts of interest and similar matters.
The Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, as well as rule changes proposed and enacted by the SEC, the New York and American Stock Exchanges and the Nasdaq Stock Market, as a result of Sarbanes-Oxley, require the implementation of various measures relating to corporate governance. These measures are designed to enhance the integrity of corporate management and the securities markets and apply to securities which are listed on those exchanges or the Nasdaq Stock Market. Because we are not presently required to comply with many of the corporate governance provisions and because we chose to avoid incurring the substantial additional costs associated with such compliance any sooner than necessary, we have not yet adopted these measures.
Because a minority of our directors are independent, we do not currently have independent audit, or compensation committees. Until we comply with such corporate governance measures, regardless of whether such compliance is required, the absence of such standards of corporate governance may leave our shareholders without protections against related party transactions, conflicts of interest and similar matters.
Substantial sales of our common stock could lower our stock price.
As of the date of this prospectus we had 26,854,721 shares of common stock outstanding, of which 19,407,919 shares are freely tradable. Sales of substantial amounts of our common stock in the public market, or the perception that these sales may occur, could cause the market price of our common stock to decline.
There are options to purchase shares of our common stock currently outstanding.
As of the date of this prospectus we have granted options to purchase shares of our common stock to various persons and entities, under which we could be obligated to issue up to 655,001 shares of our common stock. The exercise prices of these options range from $0.80 to $5.94 per share. If issued, the shares underlying these options would increase the number of shares of our common stock currently outstanding and dilute the holdings and voting rights of our then-existing stockholders.
There are warrants to purchase shares of our common stock currently outstanding.
As of the date of this prospectus we have issued warrants to purchase shares of our common stock to various persons and entities, under which we could be obligated to issue up to 8,021,537 shares of common Stock. The exercise prices of these warrants are: (a) $0.83 per share for the Series H Warrants exercisable for 3,906 shares; (b) $1.37 for the Series I Warrant exercisable for 921,875 shares; (c) $1.12 for the Series J Warrant exercisable for 3,110,378 shares; (d) $1.20 for the Series K Warrant exercisable for 3,110,378 shares; (e) $1.20 for the Series L Warrant exercisable for 500,000 shares; and (f) $2.34 for the Series M Warrants exercisable for 375,000 shares. If issued, the shares underlying these warrants would increase the number of shares of our common stock currently outstanding and dilute the holdings and voting rights of our then-existing stockholders.
There is a convertible note in the principal amount of $3,000,000 (the "Convertible Note") currently outstanding that, if converted, may require us to issue additional shares of our common stock and warrants to purchase our common stock.
On October 7, 2013, we issued the Convertible Note evidencing a loan made to us by KCC. Pursuant to the terms of the Convertible Note, as amended by the Amended BLA, KCC may elect, in its sole discretion, to convert all or any portion of the outstanding principal amount of the Loan, and any or all accrued and unpaid interest due thereon, into Units, with each Unit consisting of (a) one share of common stock and (b) one warrant allowing KCC to purchase one share of common stock. The Units are convertible at a unit price equal to the lesser of (1) $1.37, or (2) seventy percent (70%) of the 20 day average closing price of the Common Stock as quoted on the OTCQB as of the last trading date prior to the date of exercise, subject to a floor of $1.00. The exercise price of each warrant will be equal to sixty percent (60%) of the 20 day average closing price of our common stock as quoted on the OTCQB as of the last trading date prior to the date of exercise, without a floor (all share prices will be rounded to the nearest cent). The warrant is exercisable for a period of five (5) years from the date of issuance and contains a provision allowing the holder to exercise the warrant on a cashless basis as further set forth therein.
The Warrants to be included as part of the units issuable upon conversion of the Convertible Note do not have a floor and may result in substantial dilution, which may affect our ability to obtain additional financing.
The warrants to be included as part of the units issuable upon conversion of the Convertible Note are exercisable at a price equal to sixty percent (60%) of the 20 day average closing price of our common stock as quoted on the OTCQB as of the last trading date prior to the date of exercise, without a floor; accordingly, the exercise of such warrants may result in substantial dilution. The greater the dilution, the greater the potential that our stock price per share will fall. The more the stock price falls, the greater the number of shares we may have to issue in future conversions and the harder it might be for us to obtain other financing.
We have entered into the Registration Rights Agreement with KCC requiring us to register all the shares owned by KCC as of October 7, 2014, including all shares issuable upon conversion of any warrants then owned by KCC. If we fail to timely file the registration statements we will be obligated to issue additional shares of our common stock to KCC.
On October 7, 2013, as part of the bridge loan made to us by KCC we entered into a registration rights agreement with KCC pursuant to which we agreed to file such number of registration statements as required to register for resale with the SEC all the shares owned by KCC as of October 7, 2014, including all shares issuable upon conversion of any warrants then owned by KCC. As part of the Amended BLA we agreed to include all shares issuable upon exercise of the Series J Warrant, Series K Warrant and the warrant issuable upon exercise of the Convertible Note as part of the Registration Rights Agreement. If we fail to timely file the registration statements we will be obligated to issue additional shares of our common stock to KCC. In the event the we fail to file a registration statement in the time period required, we will issue to KCC additional shares of our common stock equal to 5% of the shares of our common stock that were to be registered for every thirty day period for which we fail to file such registration statement, subject to proration for any portion of such thirty day period and up to a maximum number of shares of our common stock equal to 25% of the number of shares of our common stock that were to be registered. Additionally, in the event we fail to cause a registration statement to be declared effective within ninety days from the date of filing, we will issue to KCC additional shares of our common stock equal to 2.5% of the shares of our common stock that were to be registered for every thirty day period for which we fail to cause the SEC to declare such registration statement effective, subject to proration for any portion of such thirty day period and up to a maximum number of shares of our common stock equal to 10% of the number of shares of common stock included in such registration statement.
There are bridge loans in the principal amount of $4,150,000 outstanding that we do not currently have the funds to repay.
On October 7, 2013, we entered into a bridge loan agreement with KCC in the principal amount of $3,000,000. On March 4, 2015, we entered into a bridge loan agreement with 1420468 Alberta Ltd. pursuant to which they lent us the principal amount of $600,000 at an annual interest rate of 7%. The bridge loan, as amended, has a maturity date of December 31, 2016; we do not currently have sufficient funds to repay the bridge loan. On December 7, 2015, we entered into a bridge loan agreement with KCC, pursuant to which KCC agreed to lend us up to $550,000 at an annual interest rate of 10%. The bridge loan has a maturity date of the earlier of (a) September 1, 2016 or (b) the date on which we complete one or more financings for which we receive $3,000,000; we do not currently have sufficient funds to repay any of the bridge loans.
We may issue preferred stock which may have greater rights than our common stock.
Our Articles of Incorporation allow our Board of Directors (the "Board") to issue up to 1,000,000 shares of preferred stock. Currently, no shares of preferred stock are issued and outstanding. However, we can issue shares of our preferred stock in one or more series and can set the terms of the preferred stock without seeking any further approval from the holders of our common stock. Any preferred stock that we issue may rank ahead of our common stock in terms of dividend priority or liquidation premiums and may have greater voting rights than our common stock. In addition, such preferred stock may contain provisions allowing it to be converted into shares of common stock, which could dilute the value of our common stock to then current stockholders and could adversely affect the market price, if any, of our common stock.
Our compliance with changing laws and rules regarding corporate governance and public disclosure may result in additional expenses to us which, in turn, may adversely affect our ability to continue our operations.
Keeping abreast of, and in compliance with, changing laws, regulations and standards relating to corporate governance and public disclosure, including the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, new SEC regulations and, in the event we are ever approved for listing on a registered national exchange, such exchange's rules, will require an increased amount of management attention and external resources. We intend to continue to invest all reasonably necessary resources to comply with evolving standards, which may result in increased general and administrative expenses and a diversion of management time and attention from revenue-generating activities to compliance activities. Our failure to adequately comply with any of these laws, regulations, standards or rules may result in substantial fines or other penalties and could have an adverse impact on our ongoing operations.
Because we do not intend to pay dividends for the foreseeable future you should not purchase our shares if you are seeking dividend income.
We currently intend to retain future earnings, if any, to support the development and expansion of our business and do not anticipate paying cash dividends in the foreseeable future. Our payment of any future dividends will be at the discretion of our Board after taking into account various factors, including but not limited to our financial condition, operating results, cash needs, growth plans and the terms of any credit agreements that we may be a party to at the time. Accordingly, investors must rely on sales of their common stock after price appreciation, which may never occur, as the only way to realize their investment. Investors seeking cash dividends should not purchase our common stock.

Actual events or results may differ materially from those discussed in forward-looking statements as a result of various factors, including, without limitation, the risks outlined under "Risk Factors" and matters described in this prospectus generally. In light of these risks and uncertainties, there can be no assurance that the forward-looking statements contained in this filing will in fact occur. Readers are urged not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date of this report. We assume no obligation to update any forward-looking statements in order to reflect any event or circumstance that may arise after the date of this report, other than as may be required by applicable law or regulation.
We have little likelihood of long-term success unless we are able to continue to raise capital from the sale of our securities or financing from other sources until, if ever, we generate positive cash flow from operations.
USE OF PROCEEDS
This prospectus relates to the resale of certain shares of our common stock that may be offered and sold from time to time by the Selling Stockholder. This prospectus also relates to shares of our common stock which have previously been issued or may be issued to the Selling Stockholder upon exercise of the Convertible Note. We will not receive any proceeds from the sale of the Shares by the Selling Stockholder in this offering.
DETERMINATION OF OFFERING PRICE
The Selling Stockholder will determine at what price it may sell the Shares, and such sales may be made at prevailing market prices, or at privately negotiated prices. The conversion price of the Units has been arbitrarily determined by us and bears no significant relationship to our assets, earnings, book value or any other objective standard of value. Please refer to "Plan of Distribution."

Dividend Policy
We have not paid any dividends on our common stock and our Board presently intends to continue a policy of retaining earnings, if any, for use in our operations. The declaration and payment of dividends in the future, of which there can be no assurance, will be determined by the Board in light of conditions then existing, including earnings, financial condition, capital requirements and other factors. The Nevada Revised Statutes prohibit us from declaring dividends where, if after giving effect to the distribution of the dividend:
| · | We would not be able to pay our debts as they become due in the usual course of business; or |
| · | Our total assets would be less than the sum of our total liabilities plus the amount that would be needed to satisfy the rights of stockholders who have preferential rights superior to those receiving the distribution. |
Except as set forth above, there are no restrictions that currently materially limit our ability to pay dividends or which we reasonably believe are likely to limit materially the future payment of dividends on common stock.
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with our financial statements and the related notes included elsewhere in this prospectus. In addition to historical financial information, the following discussion and analysis contains forward-looking statements that involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions. Our results and the timing of selected events may differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of many factors, including those discussed under "Risk Factors" and elsewhere in this prospectus.
Overview
We are a pre-revenue company developing our proprietary SolarWindow™ technology as the world's first-of-their-kind systems able to generate electricity on glass windows and flexible plastic while remaining see-through. Our SolarWindow™ technology provides the ability to harvest light energy from the sun and artificial sources and generate electricity from a see-through, semi-transparent, coating of OPV solar cells applied to glass and plastics.
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 research and development ("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.
Ultimately, we plan to market any SolarWindow™ technology products through co-marketing, co-promotion, licensing and distribution arrangements with third party collaborators. We believe that this approach could provide immediate access to pre-existing distribution channels, therefore potentially increasing market penetration and commercial acceptance of our products and enabling us to avoid expending significant funds for development of a large sales and marketing organization.
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 August 31, 2015, we had negative working capital of $2,898,860 and cash of $228,465. Subsequent to our quarter end, we received $400,000 of bridge financing from KCC. 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 2016. Management recognizes that in order for us to meet our capital requirements, and continue to operate, additional financing will be necessary. We expect to raise additional funds through private or public equity investment in order to expand the range and scope of its business operations. We will seek access to private or public equity but there is no assurance that such additional funds will be available for us to finance our operations on acceptable terms, if at all. If we are unable to raise additional capital or generate positive cash flow, it is unlikely that we will be able to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
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
In efforts to advance the commercial development of the SolarWindow™ technology, on March 18, 2011, we entered into a CRADA with Alliance for Sustainable Energy, LLC ("Alliance"), the operator of NREL under its U.S. Department of Energy contract. Under terms of the 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 CRADA, we agreed to reimburse Alliance 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 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. As part of the extension, we advanced $150,000 to Alliance as a retainer, which will be used once the development goals are met. Until such time, however, Alliance bills us monthly for R&D related costs as they are incurred.
On March 6, 2013, we entered into Phase II of our CRADA with Alliance. Under the terms of the agreement, researchers will additionally work towards:
| · | further improving SolarWindow™ technology efficiency and transparency; |
| · | optimizing electrical power (current and voltage) output; |
| · | optimizing the application of the active layer coatings which make it possible for SolarWindow™ coatings to generate electricity on glass surfaces; |
| · | developing improved electricity-generating coatings by enhancing performance, processing, reliability, and durability; |
| · | optimizing SolarWindow™ coating performance on flexible substrates; and |
| · | developing high speed and large area roll-to-roll (R2R) and sheet-to-sheet (S2S) coating methods required for commercial-scale building integrated photovoltaic ("BIPV") products and windows. |
Results of Operations
Year Ended August 31, 2015 Compared with the Year Ended August 31, 2014
Operating Expenses
A summary of our operating expense for the years ended August 31, 2015 and 2014 follows:
| | Year ended August 31, | |
| | 2015 | | | 2014 | | | Increase / (Decrease) | | | Percentage Change | |
Operating expense | | | | | | | | | | | | |
Selling, general and administrative | | $ | 1,927,670 | | | $ | 1,960,854 | | | $ | (33,184 | ) | | | -2 | |
Research and development | | | 666,846 | | | | 620,634 | | | | 46,212 | | | | 7 | |
Stock compensation | | | 520,774 | | | | 431,422 | | | | 89,352 | | | | 21 | |
Total operating expense | | $ | 3,115,290 | | | $ | 3,012,910 | | | $ | 102,380 | | | | 3 | |
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. During 2015, we experienced an increase in personnel costs and patent and legal fees offset by decreases in investor communications related fees, travel and general costs.
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 2015 as a result of increasing SolarWindow™ research and development activities.
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, issuance of common stock and issuance of warrants to purchase our common stock. Stock compensation expense increased in 2015 primarily due to the current year absence of a prior year reversal of approximately $357,000 of expense associated with the forfeiture of stock options and absence of a 2015 option issuance to our directors offset by the 2015 increase in stock compensation expense associated with the January 1, 2014 grant of stock options to Mr. Conklin.
Other Income (Expense)
A summary of our other income (expense) for the years ended August 31, 2015 and 2014 follows:
| | 2015 | | | 2014 | | | Change | |
Other income (expense) | | | | | | | | | |
Interest expense | | $ | (250,348 | ) | | $ | (193,151 | ) | | $ | 57,197 | |
Interest expense - accretion of debt discount | | | (4,727,106 | ) | | | (686,320 | ) | | | 4,040,786 | |
Total other income (expense) | | $ | (4,977,454 | ) | | $ | (879,471 | ) | | $ | 4,097,983 | |
"Interest expense" relates to the stated interest of our convertible promissory notes and bridge note. "Interest expense - accretion of debt discount" represents the accretion of the discount applied to our notes as a result of the issuance of detachable warrants and the beneficial conversion feature contained in our notes. The amounts under each column relate to the 2013 Note and amendment thereto and to a lesser extent to the Series L Warrants issued in connection with the $600,000 bridge loan financing on March 4, 2015.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
We have an accumulated deficit of $29,039,014 through August 31, 2015. Included in the deficit are non-cash expenses totaling $10,985,992 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 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. At August 31, 2015, we had a cash and cash equivalent balance of $228,465. Subsequent to our year end, we received $400,000 of bridge financing from Kalen Capital Corporation. We have financed our operations primarily from the sale of equity and debt securities.
Net cash used in operating activities was $2,594,725 for the year ended August 31, 2015, compared to net cash used in operating activities of $2,545,379 for the year ended August 31, 2014. The increase in cash used in operating activities of $49,346 substantially reflects increases in amounts paid for research and development expenses.
Net cash used in investing activities was $15,561 for the year ended August 31, 2015, compared to net cash used in investing activities of $16,877 for the year ended August 31, 2014. Cash used in operating activities substantially reflects increases in amounts paid for research and development equipment.
Net cash provided by financing activities was $2,053,514 for the year ended August 31, 2015, compared to $3,000,000 for the year ended August 31, 2014. Cash provided by financing activities in 2015 was from the exercise of Series H Stock Purchase Warrants and the March 2015 Loan, whereas cash provided by financing activities in 2014 was from the 2013 Note.
Other Contractual Obligations
In addition to our contractual obligations under the research agreements, as of August 31, 2015, we have lease payments of $1,150 each month under our month-to-month corporate and other office operating leases.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We have no off-balance sheet arrangements.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
On June 10, 2014, accounting principles generally accepted in the United States were amended to remove the definition of a development stage entity thereby removing the financial reporting distinction between development stage entities and other reporting entities. In addition, the amendments eliminate the requirements for the Company to present inception-to-date information and to label the consolidated financial statements as those of a development stage entity. The amendments are effective for the Company's consolidated financial statements as of August 31, 2016, and interim periods therein; however, early application of each of the amendments is permitted for any reporting period. The Company has adopted the amendments and no longer presents inception-to-date information in the statements of operations, statement of changes in stockholders' deficit and statements of cash flows. In addition, the financial statements will no longer be labeled as those of a development stage entity.
DESCRIPTION OF OUR BUSINESS AND PROPERTY
Background
Our SolarWindow™ technology generates electricity when glass or plastic surfaces are coated with electricity-generating coatings, creating semi-transparent, transparent solar photovoltaic ("PV") device. If successfully developed, SolarWindow™ could potentially be used on any of the more than 5,000,000 commercial and 80,000,000 homes in the United States alone.
Our product development programs involve ongoing research and development efforts and the commitment of significant resources to support the extensive invention, prototyping, design, engineering, testing, and intellectual property initiatives carried-out by our contract engineers, scientists, and consultants.
We have achieved numerous important milestones in the development of our SolarWindow™ technologies. For example, in advancing our SolarWindow™ technology, we have overcome major technical challenges, including the ability to achieve transparency while generating electricity on glass. We have also successfully scaled-up our technology from a single cell and lab scale devices (only one-quarter the size of a grain of rice and less than ¼ square inch) - to an array of solar cells which form a one-foot by one-foot early working prototype - our largest-ever SolarWindow™ device. SolarWindow™ devices are fabricated by applying our transparent, electricity-generating coatings onto glass and flexible plastic surfaces at room temperature and pressure, a significant technical achievement which may provide a manufacturing advantage over expensive and cumbersome high-temperature and pressure-sensitive manufacturing methods that are typical for conventional solar PV and thin-film manufacturing processes.
We have increased our focus on advanced packaging of SolarWindow™ device testing, durability, and design refinements in preparation for commercial deployment, all are key to the commercialization of our products. We are also working to establish partnerships with industrial and commercial enterprises where our technologies can be fabricated, performance documented, field tested, and refined for commercial deployment. We will seek to leverage and evolve such early relationships into our potential customer pipelines.
In order to accelerate the technical development and subsequent distribution of our products we are seeking technology and product licensing arrangements with research institutions, industrial and commercial partners, and organizations with established technical competencies, sales and market reach, and mature distribution channels and networks in the solar PV, BIPV, and alternative and renewable energy industries. Our primary business model and go-to-market strategy focuses on the licensing-out of the SolarWindow™ IP and know-how to strategic industrial partners based on the type of Exclusive/Non-Exclusive License Agreements related to:
| · | licensed product, |
| · | licensed technology, |
| · | territory, and |
| · | field-of-use |
Our Key Milestones
We have been working to invent, design, test, and prototype our SolarWindow™ technology for application to commercial flat glass in tall towers since November 2006. We have achieved the following important milestones in our development efforts:
| · | entered into a CRADA with Alliance for Sustainable Energy, LLC, the operator of NREL under its U.S. Department of Energy contract; |
| · | filed patent applications for our own electricity-generating coating and SolarWindow™ technology development efforts; |
| · | announced that we have expanded the use of our SolarWindow™ coatings to include two (2) 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 cell smaller than one-quarter the size of a grain of rice, which can successfully generate electricity on glass while remaining stable and see-through; |
| · | 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; 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; discovered new, solution-based compounds that successfully mobilize the electrons necessary for generating electricity on SolarWindow™ and eliminate the use of other materials that could be prone to breakdown. We have been able to produce these compounds without the use of 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 (12)-inch square (144 square inches in surface area); |
| · | generate 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™; SolarWindow™ modules were displayed to members of the United States Congress on Capitol Hill; |
| · | selected as the Energy Innovation Award winner for 2013 by Energy Business Review; |
| · | announced the largest area, high-performance SolarWindow™ arrays were measured by U.S. Department of Energy's National Renewable Energy Laboratory. Based on this newly validated data from the high-performance modules, our review of prevailing published literature and scientific reports confirmed that SolarWindow™ modules outperform publicized devices of comparable architecture, size, and design by over 53% in terms of power production - a major achievement and new record. Our certified, high-performance module is the most efficient OPV module ever measured by NREL's Device Performance Measurement Laboratory; |
| · | power modeling estimates of its SolarWindow™ prototype modules show SolarWindow™ modules could conservatively produce at least ten times the electrical energy of conventional rooftop PV systems installed on the same building, and in some instances, exceed power performance by as much as 50-fold; |
| · | encouraging test results of SolarWindow™ module testing shows initial performance testing should meet or exceed warranty periods for commercial-grade window products. As a result of favorable degradation and stability outcomes, we will direct resources to accelerate important durability and product-lifecycle testing efforts, effective immediately; |
| · | engineers and research scientists at the University of North Carolina Charlotte Energy Production and Infrastructure Center have independently reviewed and validated our SolarWindow™ proprietary Power Production and Financial Model (the "Model"). The Model calculates a financial payback of less than one year for our transparent electricity-generating SolarWindow™ technology; |
| · | announced plans to replace traditional electrical wiring connections with a simplified next-generation system for collecting the power produced by its see-through electricity-generating windows. In addition to reducing costs, ease of electrical installation will be important to window fabricators, glass installers (i.e., glaziers), electricians, and maintenance personnel; |
| · | new research outcomes favorable to low-cost high-speed production in diverse geographic locations where altitude, air-pressure, and humidity can otherwise effect chemistry and manufacturing. By addressing chemistry-related manufacturing issues at different altitudes, SolarWindow™ products could be commercially produced at industrial centers as diverse as the sea-level Khalifa Industrial Zone in Abu Dhabi, 600 feet higher alongside glass producers in Illinois, or even at 7,000 feet above sea level with glass factories in Mexico; |
| · | the replacement of today's cumbersome methods with our easy power connection system ('module interconnects') is also important for new construction and retrofit applications of SolarWindow™ electricity-generating window modules on skyscrapers and tall towers; |
| · | SolarWindow Technologies, Inc. hosted its first-ever webcast called "SolarWindow: Power Reinvented". The event further demonstrated our commitment to bringing SolarWindow™ products to market. SolarWindow™ prototypes that will be used in an upcoming window product concept. During the webcast, we presented plans to: outline and explain the current state of SolarWindow™ product development, discussed the evolution of SolarWindow™ research, performance technological advancements, and detailed commercialization plans for bringing SolarWindow™ products to market; |
| · | announced that our latest products will be engineered as transparent, tinted, flexible veneers that installers can apply directly over top of existing windows on tall towers and skyscrapers. This expanded product line broadens our market reach beyond new and replacement installations, to include retrofitting windows currently installed in tall towers and skyscrapers. |
Products Derived from our SolarWindowTM Technology
On September 16, 2010, we publicly unveiled a working four-inch by four-inch prototype of our proprietary SolarWindow™ technology. Scientists at the event powered lights on a scale-model house by exposing our see-through SolarWindow™ to artificial light from fluorescent lamps, mimicking lighting typically installed inside offices. In artificial light, SolarWindow™ technology outperforms today's commercial solar and thin-films by as much as tenfold under low-intensity irradiance.
Researchers also repeatedly opened and closed window shades, successfully powering LED lights each time SolarWindow™ was exposed to natural light. This demonstration mimicked outdoor exposure such as sunlight on the exterior façade of commercial buildings - our initial target market and, we believe, a promising early application of the technology.
Scientists at the debut event not only demonstrated the ability to generate "voltage" to power lighting, but also revealed SolarWindowTM capacity to produce "current" necessary for powering mechanical devices and appliances. Researchers successfully powered the mechanical rotor blades of a small helicopter using only a single, small-scale SolarWindow™ prototype exposed to a solar simulator.
In February 2012, we successfully developed the largest OPV device fabricated at NREL, measuring 170cm2, approximately 14 times larger than previous devices produced at NREL. In March 2012, we, together with NREL researchers, successfully collected and transported electricity using a virtually 'invisible' conductive wiring system developed for SolarWindow™. The ability to transport electricity on glass windows while remaining see-through is especially important to the eventual deployment of an aesthetically pleasing commercial product.
On March 8, 2014, we made public never-before-seen images of our largest area, high-performance SolarWindow™ arrays. These SolarWindow™ arrays measure over 232 cm² - a significant achievement for size, improving upon our previous achievements at NREL, and produced with highly-uniform, colored tints preferred by commercial window manufacturers for installation on skyscrapers, worldwide. Among the most important criteria for developing SolarWindow™ coating applications for today's skyscrapers is providing a set of neutral colors that remain see-through and are uniform in fabrication. We revealed a record-breaking, largest-area see-through, OPV SolarWindow™ array that addresses tall-tower and commercial building glass requirements, they also bear the promise of facile scale-up capabilities and manufacturability. This SolarWindow™ array is over 35% larger than our previously-fabricated, 170 cm² working module achievement. That prior module was already 14 times larger than the then-previous largest-area OPV module ever fabricated at the NREL.
In September, 2014 we demonstrated SolarWindow™ electricity-generating coatings to Congress during the first ever National Lab Day on Capitol Hill. National Lab Day was cosponsored by the U.S. Department of Energy. On April 8, 2015, Engineers and research scientists at the University of North Carolina Charlotte Energy Production and Infrastructure Center ("UNCC-EPIC") have independently reviewed and validated our proprietary Model. The Model calculates a financial payback of less than one year for our transparent electricity-generating SolarWindow™ technology. UNCC-EPIC team of engineering and science experts, who independently validated the modeling assumptions, reference data, and technical basis important to calculating our one-year financial payback period for SolarWindow™ systems. UNCC-EPIC validation also confirmed the proficiency of our methodology for modeling the performance of competing PV technologies.
In May, 2015 we announced plans to replace traditional electrical wiring connections with a simplified next-generation system for collecting the power produced by its see-through electricity-generating windows. In addition to reducing costs, ease of electrical installation will be important to window fabricators, glass installers (i.e., glaziers), electricians, and maintenance personnel. The replacement of today's cumbersome methods with our easy power connection system ('module interconnects') is also important for new construction and retrofit applications of SolarWindow™ electricity-generating window modules on skyscrapers and tall towers.
On August 20, 2015, we featured a first-ever demonstration of our working, electricity-generating window unit, during our webcast. Webcast participants witnessed clean electricity being generated on a demonstration window unit. Its glass is tinted in a high-demand color and framed in aluminum, popular with architects and developers of commercial towers - our target market. Participants also heard us explain exactly how we plan to: generate revenue, work towards product development and getting SolarWindow ™ ready for commercial manufacturing, build shareholder value, expand our name recognition and branding plans, increase investor outreach, engage media, and outlined important next steps for commercialization and bring SolarWindow™ products to market.
SolarWindow™ generates electricity by harnessing the energy of the sun in order to create a "photovoltaic" effect. Photovoltaics are best known as a method for generating electric power by using solar cells to convert energy from the sun into a flow of electrons. Typically, conventional PV power is generated by making use of solar modules composed of a number of cells containing PV and electricity-conducting materials. These materials are usually opaque (i.e., not see-through). Our researchers have replaced these materials with compounds that allow our SolarWindow™ technology to remain see-through, while generating electricity.
We are currently developing seven (7) products (collectively, the "SolarWindow™ Products") derived from our SolarWindow™ technology:
| · | SolarWindow™ - Commercial - A flat glass product for installation in new commercial towers under construction and replacement windows; |
| · | SolarWindowTM - Structural Glass - Structural glass walls and curtains for tall structures; |
| · | SolarWindowTM - Architectural Glass - Textured and decorative interior glass walls, room dividers, etc.; |
| · | SolarWindow™ - Residential - A window glass for installation in new residential homes under construction and replacement windows; |
| · | SolarWindow™ - Flex - Flexible films which may be applied directly onto glass, similar to aftermarket window tint films, for retrofit to existing commercial towers, buildings, and residential homes; |
| · | SolarWindow™ - BIPV - Components associated with BIPV applications in homes, buildings, and office towers; and |
| · | SolarWindow™ Retrofit Veneer - Transparent, tinted, and flexible veneers that installers can apply directly over top of existing windows on tall towers and skyscrapers. |
Our focus is first on the development and deployment of SolarWindow™-Commercial, Structural, and Architectural products. Our product development efforts have already produced early working prototypes for these applications. Commercialization of the SolarWindowTM technology will require significant further research, development and testing, and we must ascertain whether the SolarWindowTM technology can actually form the basis for a commercially viable technology or product.
SolarWindow™ Retrofit Veneer products will be engineered as transparent, tinted, flexible veneers that installers can apply directly over top of existing windows on tall towers and skyscrapers. 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 addition to the SolarWindow™ products already under commercialization.
Our Industry and Market Opportunity
Overview
Global energy consumption is expected to increase 53% from 2008 to 2035, according to the Energy Information Administration, and domestic electricity prices have been rising as a consequence of the cost of conventional fuels for electricity generation and looser pricing caps in some states.
From a total glass market perspective, the world demand for flat glass is forecast to rise 6.3% per year through 2016 to 8.3 billion square meters. The global flat glass market is estimated to be worth $8.3 billion by 2016. Importantly, the global market value of fabricated flat glass is forecast to exceed $100 billion in 2016.
America is the world's largest consumer of electricity, according to the U.S. Energy Information Administration, with nearly 70% of the nation's electricity generated by coal and natural gas; 50% of the total U.S. electrical generation relies on coal, a fossil fuel. The environmental impact and rising costs of these non-renewable fuels, along with the potential doubling of global electricity consumption in the coming years, illustrate the need for more creative, sustainable methods for generating electrical power. A forecast of US electricity demand shows an expected increase is usage of 40% by 2032.
We believe our products uniquely address a growing market opportunity for technologies able to generate sustainable electricity. Rising energy costs, increasing electricity consumption, and the need for a cleaner alternative to today's non-renewable energy sources, all contribute to the growing demand for clean, renewable alternative energy sources.
The Market Opportunity for our SolarWindow™ Technology and Products
There are no commercially marketed OPV see-through glass windows capable of generating electricity available for sale in the United States. We believe our SolarWindow™ technology and products could be uniquely positioned as first-to-market, if commercially launched.
Unprecedented levels of government initiatives, heightened residential demand for green construction, and improvements in sustainable materials are driving green building. Because buildings account for almost 50% of the energy consumed in developed countries, governments are putting increased focus on legislation and policies to improve their energy efficiency, according to the United States Environmental Protection Agency. In North America, initiatives such as the environmental building rating system (LEED) run by the U.S. Green Building Council are helping to transform the market for added-value glazing, and this trend is expected to continue. We anticipate similar opportunities in Europe, through the development of a European Union-wide energy labeling system for windows. The growth for Green Buildings are rapidly increasing: 97.5% market share is in retrofits and 2.5% market share in new buildings.
Our SolarWindow™ Products are under development for application to glass surfaces in such buildings, often referred to as "architectural flat glass" and "fabricated glass products". In the United States, the country's ten largest cities have more than 444 million square feet of architectural glass, as estimated in a 2010 industry report on flat glass by Pilkington, a major global glass manufacturer. This market is growing in volume, with global growth of around 4-5% annually, with Europe, China and North America accounting for over 70% of global demand, according to the same report. The global flat glass market is estimated to be worth $8.3 billion by 2016.
Our Competitive Strengths
We believe that the following strengths enable us to compete successfully in the alternative energy industry:
| · | Our products are first-of-their-kind solutions for generating sustainable electricity. There are no commercially-available products for sale in competition to our technologies and products, and therefore, our SolarWindow™ products may be positioned as 'first-to-market.' |
| · | Our products have unique characteristics, not readily-achievable by other technologies. Our SolarWindow™ products generate electricity while remaining see-through, and are able to produce electricity from both natural and artificial light. These traits are unique to our products and technologies, and have not been replicated by any commercially-available technology. |
| · | Our SolarWindow™ products are designed for application on the vast glass facades of commercial skyscrapers and are not confined to installation on limited rooftop space. The installation of typical roof-rack PV modules is often constrained by limited roof-top areas on commercial skyscrapers. In contrast, our SolarWindowTM Products may be applied to the entire vertical glass façades of skyscrapers. |
| · | The electricity generated by our technologies is compatible for use with existing energy infrastructure. Our SolarWindow™ products are under development for seamless applications in order to avoid burdening potential customers with special utility management systems. |
| · | SolarWindow™ repurposes passive windows as see-through energy generators. |
| · | Attractive, 'passive' product which addresses growing energy demand. |
| · | Anticipated price point should help deliver greater energy and cost savings when compared to alternatives. |
| · | SolarWindow™ technology offers a sustainable and disruptive clean technology play. |
| · | Being developed for high volume and speed production using low-cost, ambient area, manufacturing techniques. |
| · | Go-to-Market (GTM) strategy focuses on deployment using glass companies in an existing large global market with total glass market focus (Raw Glass, Handling, Tempering, Processing, Glazing/Assembly, Installation). |
| · | The SolarWindow™ product is the element of value is the inherent benefit of turning a passive window into an active electricity-generating window. |
Our Business Strategy
Our goal is to complete the product development phase for our SolarWindow™ technologies and then, to the extent warranted, work towards commercial launch of the SolarWindow™ products. Key elements of our business strategy include:

We are currently working with scientists at NREL for the ongoing development of our SolarWindow™ Products. We will seek to engage additional firms and institutions with important technical and product development competencies as needed. |
| · | Identify partnerships for technology out-licensing and in-licensing opportunities. We are actively engaged in identifying potential industry or commercial partnerships for the out-licensing of our technologies, or, if warranted, the in-licensing of certain enabling technologies that could help accelerate our product development programs by reducing our need for internal research and development. |
| · | Foster commercial partnerships with industry partners. Work to develop commercial partnerships with third-parties, which we believe could help us accelerate the development of our sales and distribution pipeline for any products we are able to develop. |
| · | Develop pricingmodels that capitalize on available energy subsidies in order to make our products affordable and attractive to end-users. In developing pricing strategies for any products we are able to develop, we would seek to provide our potential customers with access to various subsidies, government incentives, tax credits, and other related financial mechanisms. |
| · | Develop cost-effective and efficient supply-chain management and manufacturing processes. Both our SolarWindow™ technologies and products would require manufacturing systems and supply-chain management expertise. We have begun to strategize and work towards addressing these needs in a cost-effective and efficient manner. |
| · | Identify and potentially acquire strategic and/or complementary technologies. We are actively engaged in identifying technologies which may be strategic and/or complementary to our SolarWindow™ technologies for potential acquisition. |
| · | Raise capital in order to execute our build-out. |
| · | Raise capital in new, engaging, and innovative ways; this process involves building shareholder value. |
| · | Formalize strategic relationships with glass, energy, and building industries - partnerships can provide commercial reach. |
| · | Design and build SolarWindow™ products that are ready for commercial production. |
Competition for SolarWindow™ Technology and Products
Competition in the solar PV industry is growing. Although we are not aware of other products utilizing technology substantially similar to our SolarWindow™ technology, numerous solar cell technologies have been developed, or are being developed, by a number of companies.
Such technologies include, but are not necessarily limited to, the use of organic materials, advanced crystalline silicon thin film concepts, amorphous silicon, cadmium telluride, copper-indium-gallium-selenide, titanium dioxide, and copper indium diselenide, and others to generate electricity from the sun's light. Given the time, investment and advances in manufacturing technologies, any of these competing technologies may achieve lower manufacturing costs, superior performance, or greater market acceptance than our SolarWindow™ technology product, currently under development.
We face competition from many companies, major universities and research institutions in the United States and abroad. Many of our competitors have substantially greater resources, experience in conducting research, experience in obtaining regulatory approvals for their products, operating experience, research and development and marketing capabilities name recognition and production capabilities. We will face competition from companies marketing existing products or developing new products which may render our technologies (and products) obsolete. The descriptions of the products and technologies being developed or marketed by our competitors listed below have been taken from publicly available documents or reports filed by these companies:
| · | BELECTRIC Solarkraftwerke GmbH (through the acquisition of Konarka Technologies, Inc. and its assets) is focused on the development and advancement of nano-enabled polymer PV materials that are lightweight, flexible and more versatile than traditional solar materials. Following Belectric's takeover of Konarka Technologies, the company plans to set up OPV production facilities in Germany in the coming months (Ref: October 24, 2012). Belectric has subsidiaries in seventeen (17) countries. |
| · | Ubiquitous Energy is a company that began at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and is initially moving toward the electronics (tablet & E-reader, cell phone) market. Their first product seems to be a very clear, high VLT, low efficiency charging system for the electronics market. |
| · | Solarmer is developing organic photovoltaic or OPV technology, targeting portable power, off-grid power, and building integrated photovoltaics (BIPV) markets. Solarmer will utilize its materials, devices, and roll-to-roll process technology to manufacture OPV modules with strategic partners throughout the world. Solarmer sells and provides OPV modules to product developers and system integrators who will integrate them into various products. Solarmer also sells polymers, and equipment for |
| · | ONYX Solar is a new type of solar company, while they are not an OPV material company, they are playing in the same space, and doing quite well. Their current technology is mixture of semitransparent a-Si, C-Si and possibly CIS and is also working on OPV. They are currently in production, and are generating revenue. |
| · | XsunX, Inc. develops and markets proprietary Thin Film Photovoltaic ("TFPV") solar cell designs and core solar cell manufacturing systems, enabling licensees to manufacture TFPV solar devices on various substrates. |
| · | Sharp Corporation has developed mass-production technology for stacked triple-junction thin-film solar cells by turning a conventional two-active-layer structure (amorphous silicon plus microcrystalline silicon) into a triple-junction structure with amorphous silicon (two active layers) and microcrystalline silicon (single active layer). |
These companies may have numerous competitive advantages, including:
| · | significantly greater name recognition; |
| · | established distribution networks; |
| · | more advanced technologies and product development; |
| · | additional lines of products, and the ability to offer rebates, higher discounts or incentives to gain a competitive advantage; |
| · | greater experience in conducting research and development, manufacturing, obtaining regulatory approval for products, and marketing approved products; and |
| · | greater financial and human resources for product development, sales and marketing, and patent litigation. |
Our commercial success will depend on our ability and the ability of our licensee or sublicensees, if any, to compete effectively in product development areas such as, but not limited to, safety, price, marketing and distribution.
There can be no assurance that competitors will not succeed in developing products that are more effective than our SolarWindow™ technology, therefore rendering our products obsolete and non-competitive. Accordingly, in addition to our research and development efforts, we have undertaken a public relations, advertising, and market access outreach programs designed to establish our "brand" name recognition early on in our corporate development; we intend to continue to develop and market our brand name pending commercialization of products, if any, we may derive from our research and development efforts. We believe our strategy ultimately will facilitate the marketing, distribution and public acceptance of any products we may derive from our research and development efforts if and when regulatory approval is received.
Competition with respect to our technologies is and will be based, among other things, on safety, reliability, availability, price, marketing, distribution and patent position. Another important factor will be the timing of market introduction of any SolarWindowTM products we develop. Accordingly, the speed with which we can develop our SolarWindow™ products, complete safety approvals processes and ultimately supply commercial quantities of any products we develop to the market is expected to be an important competitive factor. Our competitive position will also depend upon our ability to attract and retain qualified personnel, to obtain patent protection or otherwise develop proprietary products or processes, and to secure sufficient capital resources for the often substantial period between technological conception and commercial sales.
Proprietary Assets
SolarWindowTM
Our SolarWindow™ technology is the subject of fourteen (14) patent filings.
MotionPowerTM
Our MotionPower™ technology, harvests "kinetic" or "motion" energy from vehicles when they slow down before coming to a stop and converts this captured energy into electricity. Our MotionPower™ systems can be engineered as either discreet or disruptive products, depending upon customer specifications. These systems are also designed to function independently of daily management, and do not require the presence of wind, sunlight, or other natural environmental influences in order to function. Although we are not currently further developing the MotionPowerTM technology, we are assessing potential market and commercialization options available to us with respect to the MotionPowerTM, and the technology is the subject of fifty-nine (59) patent filings.
Government Regulation
Our SolarWindow™ technology may be subject to certain government regulations. Our ability to remain viable will depend on favorable government decisions at various stages of the technology's development by various agencies. From time to time, legislation is introduced that could significantly change the statutory provisions governing our research and development processes, as well as approval of the manufacturing and marketing of any products derived from such research and development activities.
The production and marketing of SolarWindow™ technology derived products would be subject to existing safety regulations and may be subject to yet unknown regulations.
Current safety requirements for electrical products can include, but may not be limited to, Occupational Safety and Health Administration regulations, National Electrical Code as approved as an American National Standard by the American National Standards Institute or ANSI/NFPA-70, certification by Underwriters Laboratories and the Society of Automotive Engineers, and compliance with local building codes. These regulations are subject to change, and our ability to remain viable is contingent upon successfully satisfying regulatory requirements as stipulated by these agencies and/or others as the development of our SolarWindow™ technology evolves.
Our SolarWindow™ technology provides the ability to harvest light energy from the sun and artificial sources and generate electricity from a see-through, semi-transparent, coating of OPV solar cells. Initially being developed for application on glass surfaces, SolarWindow™ could potentially be used on any of the more than 85 million commercial and residential buildings in the United States alone.
The development of our SolarWindow™ technology has advanced through our CRADA with NREL.
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 see-through. We have also successfully scaled-up our technology from a single solar cell - only one-quarter the size of a grain of rice - to a working array of solar cells which form a one-foot by one-foot early working prototype - our largest-ever SolarWindow™. A pane of glass coated with our SolarWindow™ technology is fabricated by applying 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 and high positive or negative pressure-sensitive manufacturing methods common to conventional solar PV manufacturing.
In order to advance the technical development and subsequent commercialization of our SolarWindow™ products, we are actively seeking technology and product licensing arrangements with research institutions, commercial partners, and organizations with established technical competencies, market reach, and mature distribution networks in the solar PV, building-integrated PV, and alternative and renewable energy market industries.
We take on the responsibility to mitigate and manage the social and environmental impacts during the entire lifecycle of SolarWindow™ technologies, coatings, and products. These social and environmental impacts include respecting the human rights of workers, the communities and other stakeholders; and making business operations safe and environmentally responsible. We take this responsibility serious and consider it essential for advancing our strategic aim for deploying SolarWindow™ products.
Our commitment consists of three (3) essential elements:
| 1. | operations in the OPV industry sector; |
| | |
| 2. | demonstrate core compliance with applicable Regulations and Standards that establishes a strong foundation of sustainability; and |
| | |
| 3. | maintain operations with all of activities in full compliance with the Laws, Regulations, and Standards of the states and countries which we operate. |
We are committed to a progressive and ongoing engagement with the industry and with stakeholders in effort to continue development, improvement, and implementation of our commitments.

Family Relationships and Other Matters
There are no family relationships among or between any of our officers and directors.
Legal Proceedings
None of or directors or officers are involved in any legal proceedings as described in Regulation S-K (§229.401(f)).
SECTION 16(a) BENEFICIAL OWNERSHIP REPORTING COMPLIANCE
Because we do not have a class of equity securities registered pursuant to section 12 of the Exchange Act we are not required to make the disclosures required by Item 405 of Regulation SK.
CODE OF ETHICS
We have adopted a Code of Ethics that applies to all of our officers, directors and employees, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer. The Code of Ethics is designed to deter wrongdoing, and to promote, among other things, honest and ethical conduct, full, fair, accurate, timely, and understandable disclosure in reports and documents that we file with, or submit to the SEC, compliance with applicable governmental laws, rules and regulations, the prompt internal reporting of violations of the Code of Ethics, and accountability for adherence to the Code of Ethics. Our Code of Ethics is available on our website at http://www.solarwindow.com. To access our Code of Ethics, click on "Investors", and then click on "Code of Ethics" located under "Corporate Governance."
A copy of our Code of Ethics may be obtained at no charge by sending a written request to our President and Chief Executive Officer, John A. Conklin, 10632 Little Patuxent Parkway, Suite 406, Columbia, Maryland 21044.
CORPORATE GOVERNANCE
We have adopted Corporate Governance Guidelines applicable to our Board. Our Corporate Governance Guidelines are available on our website at http://www.solarwindow.com. To access our Corporate Governance Guidelines, click on "Investors," and then click on "Corporate Governance Principles" located under "Corporate Governance."
Director Independence
We are not listed on a major U.S. securities exchange and, therefore, are not subject to the corporate governance requirements of any such exchange, including those related to the independence of directors. However, at this time, after considering all of the relevant facts and circumstances, our Board has determined that Mr. Livesey is independent from our management and qualifies as an "independent director" under the standards of independence of the FINRA listing standards. We do not currently have a majority of independent directors as required by the FINRA listing standards. Upon our listing on any national securities exchange or any inter-dealer quotation system, we will elect such independent directors as is necessary under the rules of any such securities exchange.
Board Leadership Structure
We currently have only one executive officer and three directors. Our Board has reviewed our current Board leadership structure - which consists of a Chief Executive Officer and no Chairman of the Board - in light of the composition of the Board, our size, the nature of our business, the regulatory framework under which we operate, our stockholder base, our peer group and other relevant factors, and has determined that this structure is currently the most appropriate Board leadership structure for our company. Nevertheless, the Board intends to carefully evaluate from time to time whether our Chief Executive Officer and Chairman positions should be combined based on what the Board believes is best for us and our stockholders.
Board Role in Risk Oversight
Risk is inherent in every business, and how well a business manages risk can ultimately determine its success. We face a number of risks, including strategic risks, enterprise risks, financial risks, and regulatory risks. While our management is responsible for day to day management of various risks we face, the Board, as a whole, is responsible for evaluating our exposure to risk and to satisfy itself that the risk management processes designed and implemented by management are adequate and functioning as designed. The Board reviews and discusses policies with respect to risk assessment and risk management. The Board also has oversight responsibility with respect to the integrity of our financial reporting process and systems of internal control regarding finance and accounting, as well as its financial statements.
Board of Directors Meetings, Committees of the Board of Directors, and Annual Meeting Attendance
During the fiscal year ended August 31, 2015, the Board held a total of ten meetings. All members of the Board attended at least 90% of all meetings of the Board. We do not maintain a policy regarding director attendance at annual meetings and we did not have an annual meeting during the fiscal year ended August 31, 2015.
We do not currently have any standing committees of the Board. The full Board is responsible for performing the functions of: (i) the Audit Committee, (ii) the Compensation Committee and (iii) the Nominating Committee.
Audit Committee
The Board does not currently have a standing Audit Committee. The full Board performs the principal functions of the Audit Committee. The full Board monitors our financial reporting process and internal control system and reviews and appraises the audit efforts of our independent accountants.
Compensation Committee
The Board does not currently have a standing Compensation Committee. The full Board establishes our overall compensation policies and reviews recommendations submitted by our management.
Nominating Committee
The Board does not currently have a standing Nominating Committee. We do not maintain a policy for considering nominees. Our Bylaws provide that the number of Directors shall be fixed from time to time by the Board, but in no event shall be less than the minimum required by law. The Board of Directors shall be large enough to maintain our required expertise but not too large to function efficiently. Director nominees are recommended, reviewed and approved by the entire Board. The Board believes that this process is appropriate due to the relatively small number of directors on the Board and the opportunity to benefit from a variety of opinions and perspectives in determining director nominees by involving the full Board.
While the Board is solely responsible for the selection and nomination of directors, the Board may consider nominees recommended by stockholders as it deems appropriate. The Board evaluates each potential nominee in the same manner regardless of the source of the potential nominee's recommendation. Although we do not have a policy regarding diversity, the Board does take into consideration the value of diversity among Board members in background, experience, education and perspective in considering potential nominees for recommendation to the Board for selection. Stockholders who wish to recommend a nominee should send nominations to our Chief Executive Officer, John A. Conklin, 10632 Little Patuxent Parkway, Suite 406, Columbia, Maryland 21044, that include all information relating to such person that is required to be disclosed in solicitations of proxies for the election of directors. The recommendation must be accompanied by a written consent of the individual to stand for election if nominated by the Board and to serve if elected.
Compensation Consultants
We have not historically relied upon the advice of compensation consultants in determining Named Executive Officer compensation. Instead, the full Board reviews compensation levels and makes adjustments based on their personal knowledge of competition in the market place, publicly available information and informal surveys of human resource professionals.
Stockholder Communications
Stockholders who wish to communicate with the Board may do so by addressing their correspondence to the Board at SolarWindow Technologies, Inc., Attention: John A. Conklin, 10632 Little Patuxent Parkway, Suite 406, Columbia, Maryland 21044. The Board will review and respond to all correspondence received, as appropriate.
COMPENSATION OF DIRECTORS
We do not pay director compensation to directors who are also our employees. Our Board determines the non-employee directors' compensation for serving on the Board and its committees. In establishing director compensation, the Board is guided by the following goals:
| · | compensation should consist of a combination of cash and equity awards that are designed to fairly pay the directors for work required for a company of our size and scope; |
| · | compensation should align the directors' interests with the long-term interests of stockholders; and |
| · | compensation should assist with attracting and retaining qualified directors. |
For their services as directors and actual expenses incurred to attend meetings of the Board, non-employee directors received $4,250 per quarter. Directors are entitled to participate in, and have been issued options under, our 2006 Plan.
The following table provides information as to compensation for services of the non-employee directors during the fiscal years ended August 31, 2015 and 2014.

Upon termination of such service, the director will have a specified period of time to exercise vested stock options, if any.
Our Board is responsible for establishing the compensation and benefits for our executive officers. The Board reviews the performance and total compensation package for our executive officers, and considers the modification of existing compensation and the adoption of new compensation plans. The board has not retained any compensation consultants.
The goals of our executive compensation program are to attract, motivate and retain individuals with the skills and qualities necessary to support and develop our business within the framework of our small size and available resources. We designed our executive compensation program to achieve the following objectives:
| · | attract and retain executives experienced in developing and delivering products such as our own; |
| · | motivate and reward executives whose experience and skills are critical to our success; |
| · | reward performance; and |
| · | align the interests of our executive officers and stockholders by motivating executive officers to increase stockholder value. |

TRANSACTIONS WITH RELATED PERSONS, PROMOTERS
AND CERTAIN CONTROL PERSONS
We do not have a formal written policy for the review and approval of transactions with related parties. However, our Code of Ethics and Corporate Governance Principles require actual or potential conflict of interest to be reported to the Board. Our employees are expected to disclose personal interests that may conflict with ours and they may not engage in personal activities that conflict with their responsibilities and obligations to us. Periodically, we inquire as to whether or not any of our Directors have entered into any transactions, arrangements or relationships that constitute related party transactions. If any actual or potential conflict of interest is reported, our entire Board and outside legal counsel review the transaction and relationship disclosed and the Board makes a formal determination regarding each Director's independence. If the transaction is deemed to present a conflict of interest, the Board will determine the appropriate action to be taken.
Review, Approval or Ratification of Transactions with Related Persons
Our unwritten policy with regard to transactions with related persons is that all material transactions are to be reviewed by the entire Board for any possible conflicts of interest. In the event of a potential conflict of interest, the Board will generally evaluate the transaction in terms of the following standards: (i) the benefits to us; (ii) the impact on a director's independence in the event the related person is a director, an immediate family member of a director or an entity in which a director is a partner, shareholder or executive officer; (iii) the availability of other sources for comparable products or services; (iv) the terms and conditions of the transaction; and (v) the terms available to unrelated parties or the employees generally. The Board will then document its findings and conclusion in written minutes
Transactions with Related Persons
The Board is responsible for review, approval, or ratification of "related-person transactions" involving SolarWindow Technologies, Inc. or its subsidiaries and related persons. Under SEC rules (Section 404 (a) of Regulation S-K), a related person is a director, officer, nominee for director, or 5% stockholder of the company since the beginning of the previous fiscal year, and their immediate family members. SolarWindow Technologies, Inc. is required to report any transaction or series of transactions in which the company or a subsidiary is a participant, the amount involved exceeds $120,000, and a related person has a direct or indirect material interest.
The Board has determined that, barring additional facts or circumstances, a related person does not have a direct or indirect material interest in the following categories of transactions:
| · | any transaction with another company for which a related person's only relationship is as an employee (other than an executive officer), director, or beneficial owner of less than 10% of that company's shares, if the amount involved does not exceed the greater of $1 million or 2% of that company's total annual revenue; |
| · | compensation to executive officers determined by the Board; |
| · | compensation to directors determined by the Board; |
| · | transactions in which all security holders receive proportional benefits; and |
| · | banking-related services involving a bank depository of funds, transfer agent, registrar, trustee under a trust indenture, or similar service. |
The Board reviews transactions involving related persons who are not included in one of the above categories and makes a determination whether the related person has a material interest in a transaction and may approve, ratify, rescind, or take other action with respect to the transaction in its discretion. The Board reviews all material facts related to the transaction and takes into account, among other factors it deems appropriate, whether the transaction is on terms no less favorable than terms generally available to an unaffiliated third party under the same or similar circumstances; the extent of the related person's interest in the transaction; and, if applicable, the availability of other sources of comparable products or services.
The following are related party transactions for the fiscal years ended August 31, 2015 and 2014 and the subsequent period through the date hereof:
On October 7, 2013, we entered into a Bridge Loan Agreement (the "2013 Loan Agreement") with KCC, a private corporation owning in excess of 10% of our issued and outstanding shares of common stock.

The Series I Warrant is exercisable on a "cashless basis." According to the original terms of the 2013 Loan Agreement, the Investor may have elected, in its sole discretion, to convert all or any portion of the outstanding principal amount of the 2013 Note, and any or all accrued and unpaid interest thereon into units, with each unit consisting of (a) one share of common stock; (b) one Series J Stock Purchase Warrant for the purchase of one share of common stock (the "Series J Warrant"); and (c) one Series K Stock Purchase Warrant for the purchase of one share of common stock (the "Series K Warrant").

According to the terms of the 2015 Loan Agreement, the Investor may elect, in its sole discretion, to convert all or any portion of the outstanding principal amount of the Amended Note, and any or all accrued and unpaid interest thereon into units of our equity securities (collectively, the "Units"), 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 "Warrant"). The conversion price for each Unit is the lesser of (i) $1.37; or (ii) 70% of the 20 day average closing price of our common stock prior to conversion, subject to a floor of $1.00 with the exercise price of each Warrant included in the Units issued upon conversion being equal to sixty percent (60%) of the 20 day average closing price of our common stock prior to conversion. The Warrant will be exercisable for a period of five years from the date of issuance and will be exercisable on a cashless basis.
In order to induce Investor to enter into the 2015 Loan Agreement and extend the maturity date of the 2013 Note, we issued a Series J Warrant to purchase 3,110,378 shares of its common stock at an exercise price of $1.12 and a Series K Warrant to purchase 3,110,378 shares of its common stock at an exercise price of $1.20.

The holders of common stock are entitled to receive a pro-rata share of dividends, if any, as may be declared from time to time by the board out of funds legally available for the payment of dividends, subject to any preferential dividend rights of any outstanding series of preferred stock.
In the event of our liquidation, dissolution, or winding up, the holders of common stock are entitled to share pro-rata in all assets remaining after payment of our liabilities and subject to the prior rights of any outstanding series of preferred stock.

In general, under Rule 144, subject to the satisfaction of certain other conditions, a person deemed to be one of our affiliates, who has beneficially owned restricted shares of our common stock for at least one year is permitted to sell in a brokerage transaction, within any three-month period, a number of shares that does not exceed the greater of 1% of the total number of outstanding shares of the same class, or, if our common stock is quoted on a stock exchange, the average weekly trading volume during the four calendar weeks preceding the sale, if greater.
Rule 144 also permits a person who presently is not and who has not been an affiliate of ours for at least three months immediately preceding the sale and who has beneficially owned the shares of common stock for at least nine months to sell such shares without restriction other than the requirement that there be current public information as set forth in Rule 144. To the extent that Rule 144 is otherwise available, this provision is currently applicable to all of the restricted shares. If a non-affiliate has held the shares for more than one year, such person may make unlimited sales pursuant to Rule 144 without restriction.
The possibility that substantial amounts of our common stock may be sold under Rule 144 into the public market may adversely affect prevailing market prices for the common stock and could impair our ability to raise capital in the future through the sale of equity securities. Please refer to "Risk Factors."
THE SELLING STOCKHOLDER
The following table presents information regarding the Selling Stockholder. The Selling Stockholder may sell up to 6,000,000 shares of common stock. The percentage of outstanding shares beneficially owned is based on 26,854,721 shares of common stock issued and outstanding as of the date of this prospectus, subject to the information set forth in the footnotes to the table. Information with respect to beneficial ownership is based upon information provided to us by the Selling Stockholder. Except as may be otherwise described below, to the best of our knowledge, the named Selling Stockholder beneficially owns and has sole voting and investment authority as to all of the shares set forth opposite its name. The Selling Stockholder is not known to us to be a registered broker-dealer or an affiliate of a registered broker-dealer. The Selling Stockholder has acquired its shares solely for investment and not with a view to or for resale or distribution of such securities.

______________
(1) Calculated pursuant to Rule 13d-3(d) of the Exchange Act. Beneficial ownership is calculated based on 26,854,721 shares of common Stock issued and outstanding as of the date of this prospectus. Under Rule 13d-3(d) of the Exchange Act, shares not outstanding which are subject to options, warrants, rights or conversion privileges exercisable within 60 days are deemed outstanding for the purpose of calculating the number and percentage owned by such person, but are not deemed outstanding for the purpose of calculating the percentage owned by each other person listed.
Under Rule 13d-3, a beneficial owner of a security includes any person who, directly or indirectly, through any contract, arrangement, understanding, relationship, or otherwise has or shares: (i) voting power, which includes the power to vote, or to direct the voting of shares; and (ii) investment power, which includes the power to dispose or direct the disposition of shares. Certain shares may be deemed to be beneficially owned by more than one person (if, for example, persons share the power to vote or the power to dispose of the shares). In addition, shares are deemed to be beneficially owned by a person if the person has the right to acquire the shares (for example, upon exercise of an option) within 60 days of the date as of which the information is provided. In computing the percentage ownership of any person, the amount of shares outstanding is deemed to include the amount of shares beneficially owned by such person (and only such person) by reason of these acquisition rights. As a result, the percentage of outstanding shares of any person as shown in this table does not necessarily reflect the person's actual ownership or voting power with respect to the number of shares of common stock actually outstanding as of the date of this prospectus.
(2) The Selling Stockholder may offer and sell, from time to time, any or all of our common stock issued to them and registered for resale. Because the Selling Stockholder may offer all or only some portion of the 6,000,000 shares of common stock registered, no exact number can be given as to the amount or percentage of these shares of common stock that will be held by the Selling Stockholder upon termination of the offering. We can only make estimates and assumptions. The number of shares listed in the category entitled "% of Issued and Outstanding Shares Owned After This Offering," in the table above, represent an estimate of the number of shares of common stock that will be held by the Selling Stockholder after the offering. To arrive at this estimate, we have assumed that the Selling Stockholder will sell all of the shares to be registered pursuant to this offering and will not be disposing or acquiring any additional shares. Please refer to "Plan of Distribution."
(3) Kalen Capital Corporation is a private Alberta corporation wholly owned by Mr. Harmel Rayat; in such capacity, Mr. Rayat may be deemed to have beneficial ownership of these shares. The number of shares reflected above is as of the date of this prospectus, based upon the review of our transfer records as of said date and includes: (a) 9,173,404 shares owned by Kalen Capital Corporation and its wholly owned subsidiaries; (b) 921,875 shares issuable upon exercise of a Series I Warrant; (c) 3,110,378 shares issuable upon exercise of a Series J Warrant; (d) 3,110,378 shares issuable upon exercise of a Series K Warrant; (e) 2,552,090 shares issuable upon conversion of the 2015 Loan Agreement; (f) 2,552,090 shares issuable upon exercise of a warrant issuable upon conversion of the 2015 Loan Agreement (assuming the 2015 Loan Agreement was converted as of December 21, 2015, at a conversion price of $1.37. As of the date of this report we have not received a notice of conversion from Kalen Capital Corporation); and (g) 275,000 shares issuable upon exercise of a Series M Warrant.
KCC's beneficial ownership percentage has been calculated in accordance with Rule 13d-3(d) of the Exchange Act by adding all of the shares KCC currently owns (9,173,404) to the number of shares issuable to KCC upon exercise of all of its outstanding warrants (Series I Warrants + Series J Warrants + Series K Warrants + Series m Warrants = 7,417,631) and conversion privileges (shares issuable as part of the Units upon conversion of the Convertible Note + shares issuable upon exercise of the Series L Warrants included as part of the Units = 5,104,180), resulting in beneficial ownership 21,695,215 shares of our common stock, which is then divided by the number of shares of our common stock that would be outstanding upon the exercise of all of KCC's warrants and conversion privileges (26,854,721 shares currently outstanding + an additional 12,521,811 shares that would be outstanding upon exercise of all KCC's outstanding warrants and conversion of the Convertible Note). Accordingly, (21,695,215)/(39,376,532) = 0.551, or 62.3% of our issued and outstanding common stock.
(4) The 1,901,904 share increase between the number of shares beneficially owned by KCC prior to the offering and the number of shares beneficially owned by KCC after the offering is the result of the difference between the number of shares KCC beneficially owns upon conversion of the Convertible Note and all interest due thereon as of December 21, 2015, at a conversion price of $1.37, which would result in the issuance of: (i) 2,552,090 shares of common stock and (ii) a warrant exercisable for up to 2,552,090 shares of common stock and the number shares KCC would beneficially own upon conversion of the Convertible Note and all interest due thereon as of December 31, 2015, its maturity date, at a conversion price of $1.00, which would result in the issuance of: (i) 3,503,042 shares of common stock and (ii) a warrant exercisable for up to 3,503,042 shares of common stock ((3,503,042 - 2,552,090) * 2).
(5) The registration statement of which this prospectus is a part of is registering for resale up to 3,503,042 shares our common stock, representing the maximum number of shares issuable to KCC upon conversion of the Convertible Note and all interest due thereon at its maturity date of December 31, 2015, at its floor price of $1.00 and an additional 2,496,958 shares of our common stock currently owned by KCC. Assuming, KCC elects to convert the Convertible Note on its maturity date we will issue to KCC 3,503,042 shares of our common stock and a warrant exercisable for up to 3,503,042 shares of common stock. Accordingly, if KCC sells all of the shares registered for resale on its behalf pursuant hereto, and assuming that KCC does not dispose of or acquire any additional shares other than those currently beneficially owned by it, upon completion of the offering KCC will be the beneficial owner of 17,597,119 shares of our common stock (9,173,404 shares currently owed + 3,503,042 shares issuable upon conversion of the Convertible Note- 6,000,000 shares to be sold pursuant to this offering = 6,676,446 shares + 921,874 shares issuable upon exercise of a Series I Warrant + 3,110,378 shares issuable upon exercise of a Series J Warrant + 3,110,378 shares issuable upon exercise of a Series K Warrant + 3,503,042 shares issuable upon exercise of a warrant + 275,000 shares issuable upon exercise of a Series M Warrant). Pursuant to Rule 13d-3(d) of the Exchange Act, shares not outstanding which are subject to options, warrants, rights or conversion privileges exercisable within 60 days are deemed outstanding for the purpose of calculating the number and percentage owned by such person, accordingly, there will be 37,775,394 shares issued and outstanding for determining KCC's beneficial ownership (26,854,721 shares currently issued and outstanding + 10,920,673 shares issuable upon exercise of KCC's warrants). By dividing the number of shares beneficially owned by KCC upon completion of the offering (17,597,119) by the number of shares that would be outstanding upon completion of the offering (37,775,394); the result is 46.58%.
Other than the relationships described in the table and footnotes and elsewhere in this prospectus, the Selling Stockholder has not had or have any material relationship with our company or any of its affiliates within the past three years. The Selling Stockholder is not a broker-dealer or an affiliate of a broker-dealer.
We may require the Selling Stockholder to suspend the sales of the securities offered by this prospectus upon the occurrence of any event that makes any statement in this prospectus or the related registration statement untrue in any material respect or that requires the changing of statements in these documents in order to make statements in those documents not misleading.
PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION
The Selling Stockholder and any of its pledgees, assignees and successors-in-interest may, from time to time, sell any or all of their shares of common stock on the OTCQB or any other inter-dealer quotation system, stock exchange, market or trading facility on which the shares are traded or in private transactions. These sales may be at fixed or negotiated prices. The Selling Stockholder may use any one or more of the following methods when selling shares:
| · | ordinary brokerage transactions and transactions in which the broker-dealer solicits purchasers; |
| · | block trades in which the broker-dealer will attempt to sell the shares as agent but may position and resell a portion of the block as principal to facilitate the transaction; |
| · | purchases by a broker-dealer as principal and resale by the broker-dealer for its account; |
| · | an exchange distribution in accordance with the rules of the applicable exchange; |
| · | privately negotiated transactions; |
| · | settlement of short sales entered into after the effective date of the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part; |
| · | broker-dealers may agree with the Selling Stockholder to sell a specified number of such shares at a stipulated price per share; |
| · | through the writing or settlement of options or other hedging transactions, whether through an options exchange or otherwise; |
| · | a combination of any such methods of sale; or |
| · | any other method permitted pursuant to applicable law. |
The Selling Stockholder may also sell shares under Rule 144, if available, rather than under this prospectus.
Broker-dealers engaged by the Selling Stockholder may arrange for other broker-dealers to participate in sales. Broker-dealers may receive commissions or discounts from the Selling Stockholder (or, if any broker-dealer acts as agent for the purchaser of shares, from the purchaser) in amounts to be negotiated, but, except as set forth in a supplement to this prospectus, in the case of an agency transaction not in excess of a customary brokerage commission in compliance with FINRA NASD Rule 2440; and in the case of a principal transaction a markup or markdown in compliance with NASD IM-2440.
In connection with the sale of the common stock or interests therein, the Selling Stockholder may enter into hedging transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions, which may in turn engage in short sales of the common stock in the course of hedging the positions they assume. The Selling Stockholder may also sell shares of the common stock short and deliver these securities to close out their short positions, or loan or pledge the common stock to broker-dealers that in turn may sell these securities. The Selling Stockholder may also enter into option or other transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions or the creation of one or more derivative securities which require the delivery to such broker-dealer or other financial institution of shares offered by this prospectus, which shares such broker-dealer or other financial institution may resell pursuant to this prospectus (as supplemented or amended to reflect such transaction).
The Selling Stockholder and any broker-dealers or agents that are involved in selling the Shares may be deemed to be "underwriters" within the meaning of the Securities Act in connection with such sales. In such event, any commissions received by such broker-dealers or agents and any profit on the resale of the shares purchased by them may be deemed to be underwriting commissions or discounts under the Securities Act. The Selling Stockholder has informed us that it does not have any written or oral agreement or understanding, directly or indirectly, with any person to distribute the Shares. In no event shall any broker-dealer receive fees, commissions and markups which, in the aggregate, would exceed eight percent (8%).
We are required to pay certain fees and expenses incurred by us incident to the registration of the shares. We have agreed to indemnify the Selling Stockholder against certain losses, claims, damages and liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act.
Because the Selling Stockholder may be deemed to be an "underwriter" within the meaning of the Securities Act, it will be subject to the prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act including Rule 172 thereunder. In addition, any securities covered by this prospectus which qualify for sale pursuant to Rule 144 may be sold under Rule 144 rather than under this prospectus. There is no underwriter or coordinating broker acting in connection with the proposed sale of the resale shares by the Selling Stockholder.
Pursuant to the terms of the Registration Rights Agreement, we agreed to register for resale all of the shares owned by the Selling Stockholder, including shares issuable upon exercise of warrants owned as of October 7, 2014 and to keep the registration statement, of which this prospectus is a part of, until the earlier of: (a) the date the investor's securities have been sold in accordance with Rule 144; (b) such securities become eligible for resale without volume or manner-of-sale restrictions and without current public information pursuant to Rule 144 as set forth in a written opinion letter to such effect, addressed, delivered and acceptable to our transfer agent as reasonably determined by us, upon the advice of our counsel; or (c) such securities have otherwise been disposed of by the investor pursuant to an exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act. We further provided the Selling Stockholder with demand registration rights and our failure to file any required registration statements would result in penalties requiring us to issue additional shares of common stock, as further set forth in the Registration Rights Agreement. The resale shares will be sold only through registered or licensed brokers or dealers if required under applicable state securities laws. In addition, in certain states, the resale shares may not be sold unless they have been registered or qualified for sale in the applicable state or an exemption from the registration or qualification requirement is available and is complied with.
Under applicable rules and regulations under the Exchange Act, any person engaged in the distribution of the resale shares may not simultaneously engage in market making activities with respect to the common stock for the applicable restricted period, as defined in Regulation M, prior to the commencement of the distribution. In addition, the Selling Stockholder will be subject to applicable provisions of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations thereunder, including Regulation M, which may limit the timing of purchases and sales of shares of the common stock by the Selling Stockholder or any other person. We will make copies of this prospectus available to the Selling Stockholder and have informed them of the need to deliver a copy of this prospectus to each purchaser at or prior to the time of the sale (including by compliance with Rule 172 under the Securities Act).

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Board of Directors
SolarWindow Technologies, Inc.
Columbia, Maryland
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of SolarWindow Technologies, Inc. and Subsidiaries ("the Company") as of August 31, 2015 and 2014, and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders' equity (deficit), and cash flows for the years then ended. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company has determined that it is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audit included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of SolarWindow Technologies, Inc. and Subsidiaries as of August 31, 2015 and 2014, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for the years then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company does not have positive cash flows from operating activities, and has a substantial accumulated deficit. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. Management's plans regarding these matters are also described in Note 1. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

SOLARWINDOW TECHNOLOGIES, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEARS ENDED AUGUST 31, 2015 AND 2014
NOTE 1 - Organization, Recent Accounting Pronouncements, Going Concern and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Organization
SolarWindow Technologies, Inc. (the "Company") was incorporated in the State of Nevada on May 5, 1998, under the name "Octillion Corp." On December 2, 2008, the Company amended its Articles of Incorporation to effect a change of name to New Energy Technologies, Inc. Effective as of March 9, 2015, the Company amended its Articles of Incorporation to change its name to SolarWindow Technologies, Inc. The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries, Kinetic Energy Corporation ("KEC") and New Energy Solar Corporation.
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.
On March 9, 2015, the Company changed its name to "SolarWindow Technologies, Inc." in order to appropriately align the corporate name and brand identity. The Company's ticker symbol changed to WNDW.
The Company has been developing two (2) 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 see-through, semi-transparent, coating of organic photovoltaic solar cells. The Company's SolarWindow™ transparent electricity generating coatings are the subject of patent pending technologies. Initially being developed for application on glass surfaces, SolarWindow™ coatings 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. As such, the Company's activities are subject to significant risks and uncertainties, including failing to secure additional funding to operationalize the Company's technology before another company develops similar technology and products.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In February 2015, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2015-02, "Amendments to the Consolidation Analysis", which amends the consolidation requirements in ASC 810 and significantly changes the consolidation analysis required under U.S. GAAP relating to whether or not to consolidate certain legal entities. Early adoption is permitted. The Company's effective date for adoption is January 1, 2016. The Company does not expect this accounting update to have a material effect on its consolidated financial statements in future periods, although that could change.
In January 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-01, "Simplifying Income Statement Presentation by Eliminating the Concept of Extraordinary Items", which eliminates the concept from U.S. GAAP the concept of an extraordinary item. Under the ASU, an entity will no longer (1) segregate an extraordinary item from the results of ordinary operations; (2) separately present an extraordinary item on its income statement, net of tax, after income from continuing operations; or (3) disclose income taxes and earnings-per-share data applicable to an extraordinary item. Early adoption is permitted. The Company's effective date for adoption is January 1, 2016. The Company does not expect this accounting update to have a material effect on its consolidated financial statements in future periods, although that could change.
In August 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-15, Presentation of Financial Statements - Going Concern (Subtopic 205 40): Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entity's Ability to Continue as a Going Concern, which is intended to define management's responsibility to evaluate whether there is substantial doubt about an entity's ability to continue as a going concern and to provide related footnote disclosures. Specifically, ASU 2014-15 provides a definition of the term substantial doubt and requires an assessment for a period of one year after the date that the financial statements are issued (or available to be issued). It also requires certain disclosures when substantial doubt is alleviated as a result of consideration of management's plans and requires an express statement and other disclosures when substantial doubt is not alleviated. The new standard will be effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, with early adoption permitted. Management does not expect the adoption of ASU 2014-15 to have a material impact on our financial statements and disclosures.
In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (ASU 2014-09), which supersedes most existing revenue recognition guidance under US GAAP. The core principle of ASU 2014-09 is to recognize revenues when promised goods or services are transferred to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which an entity expects to be entitled for those goods or services. ASU 2014-09 defines a five step process to achieve this core principle and, in doing so, more judgment and estimates may be required within the revenue recognition process than are required under existing U.S. GAAP. The standard is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017, and interim periods therein, using either of the following transition methods: (i) a full retrospective approach reflecting the application of the standard in each prior reporting period with the option to elect certain practical expedients, or (ii) a retrospective approach with the cumulative effect of initially adopting ASU 2014-09 recognized at the date of adoption (which includes additional footnote disclosures). The Company does not expect this accounting update to have a material effect on its consolidated financial statements in future periods.
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 an accumulated deficit of $29,039,014 as of August 31, 2015, 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.
In its report with respect to the Company's financial statements for the year ended August 31, 2015, the Company's independent auditors expressed substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. Because the Company has not yet generated revenues from its operations and does not expect to do so in the near future, its ability to continue as a going concern is wholly dependent upon its ability to obtain additional financing. Currently, the Company is seeking additional financing but has no commitments to obtain any such financing, and there can be no assurance that financing will be available in amounts or on terms acceptable to the Company, if at all.
As of August 31, 2015, the Company had cash of $228,465. Subsequent to its year end, the Company received $400,000 of bridge financing. 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 January 2016.
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 programs, sell rights to its SolarWindow™ technology and/or MotionPowerTM technology or other technologies or products based upon such technologies, or license the rights to such 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.
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Principles of Consolidation
These consolidated financial statements presented are those of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries, KEC, and New Energy Solar. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.
Estimates
The preparation of the Company's consolidated financial statements requires management to make estimates and use assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, and expenses. These estimates and assumptions are affected by management's application of accounting policies. On an on-going basis, the Company evaluates its estimates. Actual results and outcomes may differ materially from these estimates and assumptions.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents includes highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less. The Company has amounts deposited with financial institutions in excess of federally insured limits.
Property, Plant, and Equipment
Fixed assets are carried at cost, less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Major improvements are capitalized, while repair and maintenance are expensed when incurred. Renewals and betterments that materially extend the life of the assets are capitalized. When assets are retired or otherwise disposed of, the cost and related accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts, and any resulting gain or loss is reflected in income for the period.
For federal income tax purposes, depreciation is computed under the modified accelerated cost recovery system. Depreciation for financial statement purposes is computed on a straight-line basis over estimated useful lives of the related assets. The estimated useful lives of depreciable assets are:
| | Estimated | |
| | Useful Lives | |
| | | |
Office equipment | | 3-5 years | |
Furniture & equipment | | 5-7 years | |
Fair Value Measurement
The Company measures fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in an orderly transaction between market participants at the reporting date. The Company utilizes a three-tier hierarchy which prioritizes the inputs used in the valuation methodologies in measuring fair value:
Level 1. Valuations based on quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that an entity has the ability to access. The Company has no assets or liabilities valued with Level 1 inputs.
Level 2. Valuations based on quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities, quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities. The Company has no assets or liabilities valued with Level 2 inputs.
Level 3. Valuations based on inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities. The Company has no assets or liabilities valued with Level 3 inputs.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The carrying value of cash and cash equivalents, accounts payable and interest payable approximate their fair value because of the short-term nature of these instruments and their liquidity. It is not practical to determine the fair value of the Company's notes payable due to the complex terms. Management is of the opinion that the Company is not exposed to significant interest or credit risks arising from these financial instruments.
Research and Development
Research and development costs represent costs incurred to develop the Company's technology, including salaries and benefits for research and development personnel, allocated overhead and facility occupancy costs, supplies, equipment purchase and repair and other costs. Research and development costs are expensed when incurred, except for nonrefundable advance payments for future research and development activities which are capitalized and recognized as expense as the related services are performed.
Stock-Based Compensation
The Company measures all employee stock-based compensation awards using a fair value method on the date of grant and recognizes such expense in its consolidated financial statements over the requisite service period. The Company uses the Black-Scholes-Merton formula to determine the fair value of stock-based compensation awards on the date of grant. The Black-Scholes-Merton formula requires management to make assumptions regarding the option lives, expected volatility, and risk free interest rates. See "NOTE 3 - Common Stock and Warrants" and "NOTE 4 - Stock Options" for additional information on the Company's stock-based compensation plans.
Income Taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes using the asset and liability method. Under the asset and liability method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributed to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and tax credits and loss carry-forwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences and carry-forwards are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. A valuation allowance is established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to amounts expected to be realized. The Company reports a liability for unrecognized tax benefits resulting from uncertain income tax positions, if any, taken or expected to be taken in an income tax return. Estimated interest and penalties are recorded as a component of interest expense or other expense, respectively.
Segment Reporting
The Company's business is considered to be operating in one segment based upon the Company's organizational structure, the way in which the operations are managed and evaluated, the availability of separate financial results and materiality considerations.
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). See "NOTE 5 - Net Loss Per Share" for further discussion.
NOTE 2 - Debt
Convertible Promissory Note
On October 7, 2013 (the "Closing Date"), the Company entered into a Bridge Loan Agreement (the "2013 Loan Agreement") with Kalen Capital Corporation (the "Investor"), a private corporation owning in excess of 10% of the Company's issued and outstanding shares of common stock. Pursuant to the 2013 Loan Agreement, the Company received proceeds of $3,000,000 and issued a 7% unsecured Convertible Promissory Note (the "2013 Note") due on October 6, 2014, with interest compounded quarterly and issued a Series I Stock Purchase Warrant (the "Series I Warrant") allowing the holder to purchase up to 921,875 shares of the Company's common stock at an initial exercise price of $1.37 for a period of five (5) years. The Series I Warrant is exercisable on a "cashless basis." According to the original terms of the 2013 Loan Agreement, the Investor may have elected, in its sole discretion, to convert all or any portion of the outstanding principal amount of the 2013 Note, and any or all accrued and unpaid interest thereon into units, with each unit consisting of (a) one share of common stock; (b) one Series J Stock Purchase Warrant for the purchase of one share of common stock (the "Series J Warrant"); and (c) one Series K Stock Purchase Warrant for the purchase of one share of common stock (the "Series K Warrant").
On November 10, 2014, the Company entered into an Amended Bridge Loan Agreement (the "2015 Loan Agreement") with Investor pursuant to which the Company and Investor amended the 2013 Loan Agreement by amending the 2013 Note to extend the maturity date to December 31, 2015 (the "Amended Note"). According to the terms of the 2015 Loan Agreement, the Investor may elect, in its sole discretion, to convert all or any portion of the outstanding principal amount of the Amended Note, and any or all accrued and unpaid interest thereon into units of the Company's equity securities (collectively, the "Units"), 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 "Warrant"). 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 included in the Units issued upon conversion being equal to sixty percent (60%) of the 20 day average closing price of the Company's common stock prior to conversion. The Warrant will be exercisable for a period of five years from the date of issuance and will be exercisable on a cashless basis.
In order to induce Investor to enter into the 2015 Loan Agreement and extend the maturity date of the 2013 Note, the Company issued a Series J Warrant to purchase 3,110,378 shares of its common stock at an exercise price of $1.12 and a Series K Warrant to purchase 3,110,378 shares of its common stock at an exercise price of $1.20. Each of the Series J Warrant and Series K Warrant is exercisable through November 9, 2019 and contains a provision allowing the Investor to exercise the warrant on a cashless basis as further set forth therein.
For accounting purposes, the modification to the 2013 Loan Agreement did not result in a gain or loss, as an extinguishment under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, due to the related party nature of the transaction. As described above, the Amended Bridge Loan Agreement resulted in the issuance of a Series J Warrant and a Series K Warrant. Prior to the Amended Bridge Loan Agreement, the Series J and Series K Warrants were to be issued to the Investor only upon the Investor's election to convert the 2013 Note (according to the original terms of the 2013 note). Also as a result of the Amended Bridge Loan Agreement, the principal amount of the Amended Note and accrued interest thereon is convertible into Units. As such, the fair value of the Warrant, representing the value exchanged for the modification of the conversion option associated with the 2013 Loan Agreement, was recognized as a discount to the Amended Note with a corresponding increase in additional paid-in capital. The fair value of the Warrant was $1.16 per share. The fair value of the Warrant was calculated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model and the following assumptions: market price of common stock - $1.28 per share; estimated volatility - 138%; risk free interest rate - 1.57%; expected dividend rate - 0% and expected life - 5 years. Based on the terms of the Amended Note, 3,142,359 warrants were issuable on November 10, 2014 with a fair value of $3,645,137 (3,142,359 Warrants x $1.16 per share). The debt discount is limited to the face value of the Amended Note. As a result, on November 10, 2014, the Company recorded a debt discount of $3,000,000 which is being accreted over the term of the Amended Note using the effective interest method.
Interest expense related to the 2013 Loan Agreement as amended amounted to $229,457 and $193,150 during the years ended August 31, 2015. Interest expense from the accretion of the debt discount related to the 2013 Loan Agreement as amended amounted to $4,433,872 and $686,320 during the years ended August 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively. The remaining debt discount related to the Warrants and totaling $879,808 will be amortized through December 31, 2015 with $656,250 amortized during the quarter ended November 30, 2015 and $223,558 amortized during the quarter ended February 29, 2016.
Bridge Loan
On March 4, 2015, the Company entered into a Bridge Loan Agreement (the "Bridge Loan Agreement") with 1420468 Alberta Ltd. (the "Creditor") pursuant to which the Company borrowed $600,000 at an annual interest rate of 7% (the "March 2015 Loan"), compounded quarterly; following the occurrence of an event of default, as further specified in the Bridge Loan Agreement, the annual interest rate would increase to 15%. The March 2015 Loan was evidenced by a promissory note with a maturity date of the earlier of: (a) the closing of any equity financing by the Company in excess of $600,000, or (b) September 4, 2015. As a condition to the Creditor's entry into the Bridge Loan Agreement, the Company issued the Creditor a Series L Stock Purchase Warrant (the "Series L Warrant") to purchase up to 500,000 shares of the Company's common stock, which are exercisable from September 5, 2015 through March 4, 2020, with an exercise price of $1.20; the Series L Warrant contains a provision allowing the Creditor to exercise the Series L Warrant on a cashless basis as further set forth therein.
The fair value of the Series L Warrant was $1.198 per share and was calculated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following assumptions: market price of common stock - $1.78 per share; estimated volatility - 76%; risk free interest rate - 1.55%; expected dividend rate - 0% and expected life - 4.5 years. This resulted in allocating $299,750 to the Series L Warrant and $300,250 to the March 2015 Loan. As a result, on March 4, 2015, the Company recorded a debt discount of $299,750 which is being accreted over the term of the March 2015 Loan.
Interest expense related to the March 2015 Loan amounted to $20,891 during the year ended August 31, 2015. Interest expense from the accretion of the debt discount related to the March 2015 Loan amounted to $293,234 during the year ended August 31, 2015. The remaining debt discount related to the Series L Warrant totaling $6,516 will be amortized during the quarter ended November 30, 2015.
Subsequent to year end, the maturity date of the March 2015 Loan was extended to December 31, 2016. As consideration the Company issued the Creditor a Series M Stock Purchase Warrant to purchase up to 100,000 shares of the Company's common stock through December 7, 2020, at an exercise price of $2.34 per share; the Series M Warrant contains a provision allowing the Creditor to exercise the Series M Warrant on a cashless basis as further set forth therein. The Company also agreed to extend the termination date of the Creditor's currently outstanding warrants to December 7, 2020.
NOTE 3 - Common Stock and Warrants
At August 31, 2015, the Company had 300,000,000 authorized shares of common stock with a par value of $0.001 per share, 26,572,615 shares of common stock outstanding and 3,315,831 shares reserved for issuance under the Company's 2006 Long-Term Incentive Plan (the "2006 Plan") as adopted and approved by the Company's Board of Directors (the "Board") on October 10, 2006 that provides for the grant of stock options to employees, directors, officers and consultants (See "NOTE 4 - Stock Options").

NOTE 4 - 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 3,315,831 remain available for grant and 326,667 were issued pursuant to the exercise of vested options as of August 31, 2015. 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:
| | Years Ended August 31, | |
| | 2015 | | | 2014 | |
Expected dividend yield | | | - | | | | - | |
Expected stock price volatility | | | 137.5 | % | | 154.0% - 154.5 | % |
Risk-free interest rate | | | 1.90 | % | | 2.21% - 2.41 | % |
Expected term (in years) | | | 7.67 | | | | 7.67 | |
Exercise price | | $ | 1.40 | | | $ | 2.90 | |
Weighted-average grant date fair-value | | $ | 1.33 | | | $ | 2.68 | |
A summary of the Company's stock option activity for the years ended August 31, 2015 and 2014 and related information follows:
| | Number of Shares Subject to Option Grants | | | Weighted Average Exercise Price ($) | | | Weighted Average Remaining Contractual Term | | Aggregate Intrinsic Value ($) | |
Outstanding at August 31, 2013 | | | 970,838 | | | | 2.03 | | | | | | |
Grants | | | 805,000 | | | | 2.90 | | | | | | |
Exercises | | | (190,000 | ) | | | 1.65 | | | | | | |
Forfeitures | | | (260,001 | ) | | | 1.69 | | | | | | |
Outstanding at August 31, 2014 | | | 1,325,837 | | | | 2.68 | | | | | | |
Grants | | | 15,000 | | | | 1.40 | | | | | | |
Forfeitures | | | (73,335 | ) | | | 2.46 | | | | | | |
Outstanding at August 31, 2015 | | | 1,267,502 | | | | 2.68 | | | 7.37 years | | $ | 344,500 | |
Exercisable at August 31, 2015 | | | 710,002 | | | | 2.52 | | | 6.54 years | | $ | 335,650 | |
Available for grant at August 31, 2015 | | | 3,315,831 | | | | | | | | | | | |
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 August 31, 2015. 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 $2.58 on August 31, 2015 and 395,834 outstanding options have an exercise price below $2.58 per share, as of August 31, 2015, there is intrinsic value to the Company's outstanding, in-the-money stock 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 years ended August 31, 2015 and 2014:
| | Years Ended August 31, | |
| | 2015 | | | 2014 | |
Stock Compensation Expense: | | | | | | |
Selling general and administrative expense | | $ | 420,488 | | | $ | 344,423 | |
R&D expense | | $ | 16,286 | | | $ | - | |
As of August 31, 2015, the Company had $282,879 of unrecognized compensation cost related to unvested stock options which is expected to be recognized over a period of 2.5 years.
The following table summarizes information about stock options outstanding and exercisable at August 31, 2015:

NOTE 5 - Net Loss Per Share
During the years ended August 31, 2015 and 2014, 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.
The following is the computation of basic and diluted net loss per share for the years ended August 31, 2015 and 2014:
| | Years Ended August 31, | |
| | 2015 | | | 2014 | |
Basic and Diluted EPS Computation | | | | | | |
Numerator: | | | | | | |
Loss available to common stockholders | | $ | (8,092,744 | ) | | $ | (3,892,381 | ) |
Denominator: | | | | | | | | |
Weighted average number of common shares outstanding | | | 25,131,836 | | | | 24,279,448 | |
Basic and diluted EPS | | $ | (0.32 | ) | | $ | (0.16 | ) |
| | | | | | | | |
The shares listed below were not included in the computation of diluted losses per share because to do so would have been antidilutive for the periods presented: | |
| | | | | | | | |
Convertible debt | | | 2,498,254 | | | | 2,624,651 | |
Warrants issuable upon conversion of debt (See "NOTE 2 - Debt" above) | | | 2,498,254 | | | | 5,249,303 | |
Warrants | | | 7,646,537 | | | | 3,302,001 | |
Stock options | | | 1,267,502 | | | | 1,325,837 | |
NOTE 6 - 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 Sierchio & Partners, LLP (formerly Sierchio & Company, LLP), of which Joseph Sierchio, one of the Company's directors, is a principal, has provided counsel to the Company since its inception. During the years ended August 31, 2015 and 2014, the law firm of Sierchio & Partners, LLP provided $235,459 and $137,814, respectively, of legal services. At August 31, 2015, the Company owed Sierchio & Partners, LLP $20,335 which is included in accounts payable.
On October 7, 2013, the Company entered into the 2013 Loan Agreement with Investor and on November 10, 2014, the Company and Investor entered into the 2015 Loan Agreement resulting in the extension of the 2013 Note's maturity date to December 31, 2015 and the issuance of a Series J Warrant to purchase 3,110,378 shares of our common stock and a Series K Warrant to purchase 3,110,378 shares of our common stock (see "NOTE 2 - Debt" above).
Additionally, during 2015, the Company received $765,156 upon the Investor's exercise of 921,875 Series H Warrants, for an equal number of shares, originally issued on February 1, 2013 pursuant to the Company's $1.2 million self-directed financing.
All related party transactions are recorded at the exchange amount established and agreed to between related parties and are in the normal course of business.
NOTE 7 - Income Taxes
Deferred income taxes reflect the net tax effects of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes. Significant components of the Company's deferred tax assets at August 31, 2015 and 2014 are as follows:
| | 2015 | | | 2014 | |
Deferred tax assets: | | | | | | |
Net operating loss carryforwards | | $ | 4,817,277 | | | $ | 4,421,974 | |
Capitalized research and development | | | 1,157,431 | | | | 993,062 | |
Depreciation | | | (5,615 | ) | | | (2,625 | ) |
Stock based compensation | | | 1,425,291 | | | | 1,276,788 | |
Research and development credit carry forward | | | 310,797 | | | | 256,417 | |
Total deferred tax assets | | | 7,705,181 | | | | 6,945,616 | |
Less: valuation allowance | | | (7,705,181 | ) | | | (6,945,616 | ) |
Net deferred tax asset | | $ | - | | | $ | - | |
The net increase in the valuation allowance for deferred tax assets was $759,565 and $1,372,511 for the years ended August 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively. The Company evaluates its valuation allowance requirements on an annual basis based on projected future operations. When circumstances change and this causes a change in management's judgment about the realizability of deferred tax assets, the impact of the change on the valuation allowance is reflected in current operations.
For federal income tax purposes, the Company has net U.S. operating loss carry forwards at August 31, 2015 available to offset future federal taxable income, if any, of $14,168,462, which will fully expire by the fiscal year ended August 31, 2035. Accordingly, there is no current tax expense for the years ended August 31, 2015 and 2014. In addition, the Company has research and development tax credit carry forwards of $310,797 at August 31, 2015, which are available to offset federal income taxes and begin to expire during the fiscal year ending August 31, 2027.
The utilization of the tax net operating loss carry forwards may be limited due to ownership changes that have occurred as a result of sales of common stock.
The effects of state income taxes were insignificant for the years ended August 31, 2015 and 2014.
The following is a reconciliation between expected income tax benefit and actual, using the applicable statutory income tax rate of 34% for the years ended August 31, 2015 and 2014:
| | 2015 | | | 2014 | |
Income tax benefit at statutory rate | | $ | 2,751,533 | | | $ | 1,323,410 | |
Permanent differences | | | (2,046,348 | ) | | | (601 | ) |
Research and development credit | | | 54,380 | | | | 49,702 | |
Change in valuation allowance | | | (759,565 | ) | | | (1,372,511 | ) |
| | $ | - | | | $ | - | |
The fiscal years 2013 through 2015 remain open to examination by federal authorities and other jurisdictions in which the Company operates.
NOTE 8 - Subsequent Events
Subsequent to year end, the maturity date of the March 2015 Loan was extended to December 31, 2016. As consideration the Company issued the Creditor a Series M Stock Purchase Warrant to purchase up to 100,000 shares of the Company's common stock through December 7, 2020, at an exercise price of $2.34 per share; the Series M Warrant contains a provision allowing the Creditor to exercise the Series M Warrant on a cashless basis as further set forth therein. The Company also agreed to extend the termination date of the Creditor's currently outstanding warrants to December 7, 2020.
On December 7, 2015, the Company entered into a Bridge Loan Agreement (the "December 2015 Loan Agreement") with the Investor pursuant to which the Company may borrow up to $550,000; of which $400,000 was advanced on October 7, 2015 (the "December 2015 Loan"). The remaining $150,000 is available upon written request by the Company to the Investor. Following the occurrence of an event of default, as further specified in the December 2015 Loan Agreement; the annual interest rate would increase to 18%. The December 2015 Loan was evidenced by a promissory note with an annual interest rate of 10%, compounded quarterly, and a maturity date of the earlier of: (a) the closing of any equity financing by the Company in excess of $3,000,000, or (b) September 1, 2016. The December 2015 Loan is convertible at any time into shares of common stock at a conversion price equal to 85% of the thirty (30) day volume weighted average price of the Company's common stock. Also, as a condition to the Investor's entry into the December 2015 Loan Agreement, the Company issued the Investor a Series M Stock Purchase Warrant to purchase up to 275,000 shares of the Company's common stock for a period of five (5) years, with an exercise price of $2.34; the Series M Warrant contains a provision allowing the Investor to exercise the Series M Warrant on a cashless basis as further set forth therein.

ITEM 13. OTHER EXPENSES OF ISSUANCE AND DISTRIBUTION
Our estimated expenses in connection with the issuance and distribution of the securities being registered are:
SEC filing fee | | $ | 1,300 | |
Accounting fees and expenses | | $ | 2,500 | |
Legal fees and expenses | | $ | 15,000 | |
Miscellaneous | | $ | 1,200 | |
Total | | $ | 20,000 | |
ITEM 14. INDEMNIFICATION OF OFFICERS AND DIRECTORS
Section 78.7502(1) of the Nevada Revised Statutes ("NRS") authorizes a Nevada corporation to indemnify any director, officer, employee, or corporate agent "who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, except an action by or in the right of the corporation" due to his or her corporate role. Section 78.7502(1) extends this protection "against expenses, including attorneys' fees, judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by him in connection with the action, suit or proceeding if he acted in good faith and in a manner which he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful."
Section 78.7502(2) of the NRS also authorizes indemnification of the reasonable defense or settlement expenses of a corporate director, officer, employee or agent who is sued, or is threatened with a suit, by or in the right of the corporation. The party must have been acting in good faith and with the reasonable belief that his or her actions were in or not opposed to the corporation's best interests. Unless the court rules that the party is reasonably entitled to indemnification, the party seeking indemnification must not have been found liable to the corporation.
To the extent that a corporate director, officer, employee, or agent is successful on the merits or otherwise in defending any action or proceeding referred to in Section 78.7502(1) or 78.7502(2), Section 78.7502(3) of the NRS requires that he be indemnified "against expenses, including attorneys' fees, actually and reasonably incurred by him in connection with the defense."
Unless ordered by a court or advanced pursuant to Section 78.751(2), Section 78.751(1) of the NRS limits indemnification under Section 78.7502 to situations in which either (1) the stockholders, (2) the majority of a disinterested quorum of directors, or (3) independent legal counsel determine that indemnification is proper under the circumstances.
Section 78.751(2) authorizes a corporation's articles of incorporation, bylaws or agreement to provide that directors' and officers' expenses incurred in defending a civil or criminal action must be paid by the corporation as incurred, rather than upon final disposition of the action, upon receipt by the director or officer to repay the amount if a court ultimately determines that he is not entitled to indemnification.
Section 78.751(3)(a) provides that the rights to indemnification and advancement of expenses shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights under any bylaw, agreement, stockholder vote or vote of disinterested directors. Section 78.751(3)(b) extends the rights to indemnification and advancement of expenses to former directors, officers, employees and agents, as well as their heirs, executors, and administrators.
Regardless of whether a director, officer, employee or agent has the right to indemnity, Section 78.752 allows the corporation to purchase and maintain insurance on his behalf against liability resulting from his or her corporate role.
Our Bylaws also contain broad indemnification provisions. We have entered into indemnification agreements with each of our directors.
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to our directors or officers pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, we have been advised that in the opinion of the Securities Exchange Commission, this indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act, and is therefore unenforceable.
There is no pending litigation or proceeding involving any of our directors, officers, employees, or other agents as to which indemnification is being sought, nor are we aware of any pending or threatened litigation that may result in claims for indemnification by any director, officer, employee, or other agent.

ITEM 17. UNDERTAKINGS
The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:
(1) To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this registration statement:
(i) To include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933;
(ii) To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the registration statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the registration statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than a 20% change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the "Calculation of Registration Fee" table in the effective registration statement; and
(iii) To include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the registration statement or any material change to such information in the registration statement;
(2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
(3) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering.
(4) That, for the purpose of determining liability under the Securities Act of 1933 to any purchaser, each prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424(b) as part of a registration statement relating to an offering, other than registration statements relying on Rule 430B or other than prospectuses filed in reliance on Rule 430A (§230.430A of this chapter), shall be deemed to be part of and included in the registration statement as of the date it is first used after effectiveness. Provided, however, that no statement made in a registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement or made in a document incorporated or deemed incorporated by reference into the registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement will, as to a purchaser with a time of contract of sale prior to such first use, supersede or modify any statement that was made in the registration statement or prospectus that was part of the registration statement or made in any such document immediately prior to such date of first use.
(5) That, for the purpose of determining liability of the registrant under the Securities Act of 1933 to any purchaser in the initial distribution of the securities:
The undersigned registrant undertakes that in a primary offering of securities of the undersigned registrant pursuant to this registration statement, regardless of the underwriting method used to sell the securities to the purchaser, if the securities are offered or sold to such purchaser by means of any of the following communications, the undersigned registrant will be a seller to the purchaser and will be considered to offer or sell such securities to such purchaser:
(i) Any preliminary prospectus or prospectus of the undersigned registrant relating to the offering required to be filed pursuant to Rule 424;
(ii) Any free writing prospectus relating to the offering prepared by or on behalf of the undersigned registrant or used or referred to by the undersigned registrant;
(iii) The portion of any other free writing prospectus relating to the offering containing material information about the undersigned registrant or its securities provided by or on behalf of the undersigned registrant; and
(iv) Any other communication that is an offer in the offering made by the undersigned registrant to the purchaser.
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
SIGNATURES
Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, the registrant has duly caused this registration statement to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned, thereunto duly authorized in the City of Columbia, State of Maryland, on December 28, 2015.

EXHIBIT 23.2
CONSENT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
We consent to the inclusion in this Post-Effective Amendment No. 1 to the Registration Statement on Form S-1 (File No. 333-198306) of SolarWindow Technologies, Inc. of our report dated December 11, 2015, on our audits of the consolidated balance sheets of SolarWindow Technologies, Inc. and Subsidiaries ("the Company") as of August 31, 2015 and 2014, and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders' equity (deficit), and cash flows for the years then ended. We also consent to the reference to us under the heading "Experts" in the Registration Statement.
Our report, dated December 11, 2015, contains an explanatory paragraph that states that the consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. The Company does not have positive cash flows from operating activities, and has a substantial accumulated deficit. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.

Organization
SolarWindow Technologies,
Inc. (the "Company") was incorporated in the State of Nevada on May 5, 1998, under the name "Octillion Corp."
On December 2, 2008, the Company amended its Articles of Incorporation to effect a change of name to New Energy Technologies, Inc.
Effective as of March 9, 2015, the Company amended its Articles of Incorporation to change its name to SolarWindow Technologies,
Inc. The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries,
Kinetic Energy Corporation ("KEC") and New Energy Solar Corporation.
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.
On March 9, 2015, the
Company changed its name to "SolarWindow Technologies, Inc." in order to appropriately align the corporate name and brand
identity. The Company's ticker symbol changed to WNDW.
The Company has been
developing two (2) 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 see-through,
semi-transparent, coating of organic photovoltaic solar cells. The Company's SolarWindow transparent electricity generating
coatings are the subject of patent pending technologies. Initially being developed for application on glass surfaces, SolarWindow
coatings 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. As such, the Company's activities are subject to significant risks and uncertainties, including
failing to secure additional funding to operationalize the Company's technology before another company develops similar technology
and products.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In February 2015, the
Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2015-02, "Amendments
to the Consolidation Analysis", which amends the consolidation requirements in ASC 810 and significantly changes the consolidation
analysis required under U.S. GAAP relating to whether or not to consolidate certain legal entities. Early adoption is permitted.
The Company's effective date for adoption is January 1, 2016. The Company does not expect this accounting update to have a material
effect on its consolidated financial statements in future periods, although that could change.
In January 2015, the
FASB issued ASU 2015-01, "Simplifying Income Statement Presentation by Eliminating the Concept of Extraordinary Items",
which eliminates the concept from U.S. GAAP the concept of an extraordinary item. Under the ASU, an entity will no longer (1) segregate
an extraordinary item from the results of ordinary operations; (2) separately present an extraordinary item on its income statement,
net of tax, after income from continuing operations; or (3) disclose income taxes and earnings-per-share data applicable to an
extraordinary item. Early adoption is permitted. The Company's effective date for adoption is January 1, 2016. The Company
does not expect this accounting update to have a material effect on its consolidated financial statements in future periods, although
that could change.
In August 2014, the FASB
issued ASU No. 2014-15, Presentation of Financial Statements - Going Concern (Subtopic 205 40): Disclosure of Uncertainties about
an Entity's Ability to Continue as a Going Concern, which is intended to define management's responsibility to evaluate whether
there is substantial doubt about an entity's ability to continue as a going concern and to provide related footnote disclosures.
Specifically, ASU 2014-15 provides a definition of the term substantial doubt and requires an assessment for a period of one year
after the date that the financial statements are issued (or available to be issued). It also requires certain disclosures when
substantial doubt is alleviated as a result of consideration of management's plans and requires an express statement and other
disclosures when substantial doubt is not alleviated. The new standard will be effective for reporting periods beginning after
December 15, 2016, with early adoption permitted. Management does not expect the adoption of ASU 2014-15 to have a material impact
on our financial statements and disclosures.
In May 2014, the FASB
issued ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (ASU 2014-09), which supersedes most existing revenue recognition guidance
under US GAAP. The core principle of ASU 2014-09 is to recognize revenues when promised goods or services are transferred to customers
in an amount that reflects the consideration to which an entity expects to be entitled for those goods or services. ASU 2014-09
defines a five step process to achieve this core principle and, in doing so, more judgment and estimates may be required within
the revenue recognition process than are required under existing U.S. GAAP. The standard is effective for annual periods beginning
after December 15, 2017, and interim periods therein, using either of the following transition methods: (i) a full retrospective
approach reflecting the application of the standard in each prior reporting period with the option to elect certain practical expedients,
or (ii) a retrospective approach with the cumulative effect of initially adopting ASU 2014-09 recognized at the date of adoption
(which includes additional footnote disclosures). The Company does not expect this accounting update to have a material effect
on its consolidated financial statements in future periods.
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 an accumulated deficit of $29,039,014
as of August 31, 2015, 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.
In its report with respect
to the Company's financial statements for the year ended August 31, 2015, the Company's independent auditors expressed substantial
doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. Because the Company has not yet generated revenues from its operations
and does not expect to do so in the near future, its ability to continue as a going concern is wholly dependent upon its ability
to obtain additional financing. Currently, the Company is seeking additional financing but has no commitments to obtain any such
financing, and there can be no assurance that financing will be available in amounts or on terms acceptable to the Company, if
at all.
As of August 31, 2015,
the Company had cash of $228,465. Subsequent to its year end, the Company received $400,000 of bridge financing. 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 January 2016.
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 programs, sell rights to its SolarWindow technology and/or MotionPowerTM technology or other technologies
or products based upon such technologies, or license the rights to such 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.
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Principles of Consolidation
These consolidated financial
statements presented are those of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries, KEC, and New Energy Solar. All significant intercompany
balances and transactions have been eliminated.
Estimates
The preparation of the
Company's consolidated financial statements requires management to make estimates and use assumptions that affect the reported
amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, and expenses. These estimates and assumptions are affected by management's application
of accounting policies. On an on-going basis, the Company evaluates its estimates. Actual results and outcomes may differ materially
from these estimates and assumptions.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents
includes highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less. The Company has amounts deposited with financial
institutions in excess of federally insured limits.
Property, Plant, and Equipment
Fixed assets are carried
at cost, less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Major improvements are capitalized, while repair and maintenance are expensed
when incurred. Renewals and betterments that materially extend the life of the assets are capitalized. When assets are retired
or otherwise disposed of, the cost and related accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts, and any resulting gain or
loss is reflected in income for the period.
For federal income tax
purposes, depreciation is computed under the modified accelerated cost recovery system. Depreciation for financial statement purposes
is computed on a straight-line basis over estimated useful lives of the related assets. The estimated useful lives of depreciable
assets are:

|
|
Useful Lives |
|
|
|
|

Office equipment |
|
3-5 years |
|
Furniture & equipment |
|
5-7 years |
|
Fair Value Measurement
The Company measures
fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in an orderly transaction
between market participants at the reporting date. The Company utilizes a three-tier hierarchy which prioritizes the inputs used
in the valuation methodologies in measuring fair value:
Level 1. Valuations based on quoted
prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that an entity has the ability to access. The Company has no assets
or liabilities valued with Level 1 inputs.
Level 2. Valuations based on quoted
prices for similar assets or liabilities, quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, or
other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.
The Company has no assets or liabilities valued with Level 2 inputs.
Level 3. Valuations based on inputs
that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities. The
Company has no assets or liabilities valued with Level 3 inputs.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The carrying value of
cash and cash equivalents, accounts payable and interest payable approximate their fair value because of the short-term nature
of these instruments and their liquidity. It is not practical to determine the fair value of the Company's notes payable due to
the complex terms. Management is of the opinion that the Company is not exposed to significant interest or credit risks arising
from these financial instruments.
Research and Development
Research and development
costs represent costs incurred to develop the Company's technology, including salaries and benefits for research and development
personnel, allocated overhead and facility occupancy costs, supplies, equipment purchase and repair and other costs. Research and
development costs are expensed when incurred, except for nonrefundable advance payments for future research and development activities
which are capitalized and recognized as expense as the related services are performed.
Stock-Based Compensation
The Company measures
all employee stock-based compensation awards using a fair value method on the date of grant and recognizes such expense in its
consolidated financial statements over the requisite service period. The Company uses the Black-Scholes-Merton formula to determine
the fair value of stock-based compensation awards on the date of grant. The Black-Scholes-Merton formula requires management to
make assumptions regarding the option lives, expected volatility, and risk free interest rates. See "NOTE 3 Common
Stock and Warrants" and "NOTE 4 - Stock Options" for additional information on the Company's stock-based compensation
plans.
Income Taxes
The Company accounts
for income taxes using the asset and liability method. Under the asset and liability method, deferred tax assets and liabilities
are recognized for the future tax consequences attributed to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing
assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and tax credits and loss carry-forwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities
are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences and
carry-forwards are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates
is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. A valuation allowance is established when necessary to
reduce deferred tax assets to amounts expected to be realized. The Company reports a liability for unrecognized tax benefits resulting
from uncertain income tax positions, if any, taken or expected to be taken in an income tax return. Estimated interest and penalties
are recorded as a component of interest expense or other expense, respectively.
Segment Reporting
The Company's business
is considered to be operating in one segment based upon the Company's organizational structure, the way in which the operations
are managed and evaluated, the availability of separate financial results and materiality considerations.
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). See "NOTE 5 - Net Loss Per Share" for further discussion.

Note 2. Debt |
Convertible Promissory Note
On October 7, 2013 (the
"Closing Date"), the Company entered into a Bridge Loan Agreement (the "2013 Loan Agreement") with Kalen Capital
Corporation (the "Investor"), a private corporation owning in excess of 10% of the Company's issued and outstanding shares
of common stock. Pursuant to the 2013 Loan Agreement, the Company received proceeds of $3,000,000 and issued a 7% unsecured Convertible
Promissory Note (the "2013 Note") due on October 6, 2014, with interest compounded quarterly and issued a Series I Stock
Purchase Warrant (the "Series I Warrant") allowing the holder to purchase up to 921,875 shares of the Company's common
stock at an initial exercise price of $1.37 for a period of five (5) years. The Series I Warrant is exercisable on a "cashless
basis." According to the original terms of the 2013 Loan Agreement, the Investor may have elected, in its sole discretion,
to convert all or any portion of the outstanding principal amount of the 2013 Note, and any or all accrued and unpaid interest
thereon into units, with each unit consisting of (a) one share of common stock; (b) one Series J Stock Purchase Warrant for the
purchase of one share of common stock (the "Series J Warrant"); and (c) one Series K Stock Purchase Warrant for the purchase
of one share of common stock (the "Series K Warrant").
On November 10, 2014,
the Company entered into an Amended Bridge Loan Agreement (the "2015 Loan Agreement") with Investor pursuant to which
the Company and Investor amended the 2013 Loan Agreement by amending the 2013 Note to extend the maturity date to December 31,
2015 (the "Amended Note"). According to the terms of the 2015 Loan Agreement, the Investor may elect, in its sole discretion,
to convert all or any portion of the outstanding principal amount of the Amended Note, and any or all accrued and unpaid interest
thereon into units of the Company's equity securities (collectively, the "Units"), 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 "Warrant").
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 included in the Units issued
upon conversion being equal to sixty percent (60%) of the 20 day average closing price of the Company's common stock prior to conversion.
The Warrant will be exercisable for a period of five years from the date of issuance and will be exercisable on a cashless basis.
In order to induce Investor
to enter into the 2015 Loan Agreement and extend the maturity date of the 2013 Note, the Company issued a Series J Warrant to purchase
3,110,378 shares of its common stock at an exercise price of $1.12 and a Series K Warrant to purchase 3,110,378 shares of its common
stock at an exercise price of $1.20. Each of the Series J Warrant and Series K Warrant is exercisable through November 9, 2019
and contains a provision allowing the Investor to exercise the warrant on a cashless basis as further set forth therein.
For accounting purposes,
the modification to the 2013 Loan Agreement did not result in a gain or loss, as an extinguishment under accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States, due to the related party nature of the transaction. As described above, the Amended Bridge
Loan Agreement resulted in the issuance of a Series J Warrant and a Series K Warrant. Prior to the Amended Bridge Loan Agreement,
the Series J and Series K Warrants were to be issued to the Investor only upon the Investor's election to convert the 2013 Note
(according to the original terms of the 2013 note). Also as a result of the Amended Bridge Loan Agreement, the principal amount
of the Amended Note and accrued interest thereon is convertible into Units. As such, the fair value of the Warrant, representing
the value exchanged for the modification of the conversion option associated with the 2013 Loan Agreement, was recognized as a
discount to the Amended Note with a corresponding increase in additional paid-in capital. The fair value of the Warrant was $1.16
per share. The fair value of the Warrant was calculated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model and the following assumptions:
market price of common stock - $1.28 per share; estimated volatility - 138%; risk free interest rate - 1.57%; expected dividend
rate - 0% and expected life - 5 years. Based on the terms of the Amended Note, 3,142,359 warrants were issuable on November 10,
2014 with a fair value of $3,645,137 (3,142,359 Warrants x $1.16 per share). The debt discount is limited to the face value of
the Amended Note. As a result, on November 10, 2014, the Company recorded a debt discount of $3,000,000 which is being accreted
over the term of the Amended Note using the effective interest method.
Interest expense related
to the 2013 Loan Agreement as amended amounted to $229,457 and $193,150 during the years ended August 31, 2015. Interest expense
from the accretion of the debt discount related to the 2013 Loan Agreement as amended amounted to $4,433,872 and $686,320 during
the years ended August 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively. The remaining debt discount related to the Warrants and totaling $879,808
will be amortized through December 31, 2015 with $656,250 amortized during the quarter ended November 30, 2015 and $223,558 amortized
during the quarter ended February 29, 2016.
Bridge Loan
On March 4, 2015, the
Company entered into a Bridge Loan Agreement (the "Bridge Loan Agreement") with 1420468 Alberta Ltd. (the "Creditor")
pursuant to which the Company borrowed $600,000 at an annual interest rate of 7% (the "March 2015 Loan"), compounded
quarterly; following the occurrence of an event of default, as further specified in the Bridge Loan Agreement, the annual interest
rate would increase to 15%. The March 2015 Loan was evidenced by a promissory note with a maturity date of the earlier of: (a)
the closing of any equity financing by the Company in excess of $600,000, or (b) September 4, 2015. As a condition to the Creditor's
entry into the Bridge Loan Agreement, the Company issued the Creditor a Series L Stock Purchase Warrant (the "Series L Warrant")
to purchase up to 500,000 shares of the Company's common stock, which are exercisable from September 5, 2015 through March 4, 2020,
with an exercise price of $1.20; the Series L Warrant contains a provision allowing the Creditor to exercise the Series L Warrant
on a cashless basis as further set forth therein.
The fair value of the
Series L Warrant was $1.198 per share and was calculated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following assumptions:
market price of common stock - $1.78 per share; estimated volatility - 76%; risk free interest rate 1.55%; expected dividend
rate - 0% and expected life 4.5 years. This resulted in allocating $299,750 to the Series L Warrant and $300,250 to the
March 2015 Loan. As a result, on March 4, 2015, the Company recorded a debt discount of $299,750 which is being accreted over the
term of the March 2015 Loan.

Note 4. 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 3,315,831 remain available
for grant and 326,667 were issued pursuant to the exercise of vested options as of August 31, 2015. 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 August 31, 2015. 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 $2.58 on August 31, 2015 and 395,834 outstanding
options have an exercise price below $2.58 per share, as of August 31, 2015, there is intrinsic value to the Company's outstanding,
in-the-money stock 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 years ended August 31,

Note 5. Net Loss Per Share |
During the years ended
August 31, 2015 and 2014, 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.
The following is the
computation of basic and diluted net loss per share for the years ended August 31, 2015 and 2014:

The net increase in the
valuation allowance for deferred tax assets was $759,565 and $1,372,511 for the years ended August 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively.
The Company evaluates its valuation allowance requirements on an annual basis based on projected future operations. When circumstances
change and this causes a change in management's judgment about the realizability of deferred tax assets, the impact of the change
on the valuation allowance is reflected in current operations.
For federal income tax
purposes, the Company has net U.S. operating loss carry forwards at August 31, 2015 available to offset future federal taxable
income, if any, of $14,168,462, which will fully expire by the fiscal year ended August 31, 2035. Accordingly, there is no current
tax expense for the years ended August 31, 2015 and 2014. In addition, the Company has research and development tax credit carry
forwards of $310,797 at August 31, 2015, which are available to offset federal income taxes and begin to expire during the fiscal
year ending August 31, 2027.
The utilization of the
tax net operating loss carry forwards may be limited due to ownership changes that have occurred as a result of sales of common
stock.
The effects of state
income taxes were insignificant for the years ended August 31, 2015 and 2014.
The following is a reconciliation

Organization |
SolarWindow Technologies,
Inc. (the "Company") was incorporated in the State of Nevada on May 5, 1998, under the name "Octillion Corp."
On December 2, 2008, the Company amended its Articles of Incorporation to effect a change of name to New Energy Technologies, Inc.
Effective as of March 9, 2015, the Company amended its Articles of Incorporation to change its name to SolarWindow Technologies,
Inc. The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries,
Kinetic Energy Corporation ("KEC") and New Energy Solar Corporation.
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.
On March 9, 2015, the
Company changed its name to "SolarWindow Technologies, Inc." in order to appropriately align the corporate name and brand
identity. The Company's ticker symbol changed to WNDW.
The Company has been
developing two (2) 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 see-through,
semi-transparent, coating of organic photovoltaic solar cells. The Company's SolarWindow transparent electricity generating
coatings are the subject of patent pending technologies. Initially being developed for application on glass surfaces, SolarWindow
coatings 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. As such, the Company's activities are subject to significant risks and uncertainties, including
failing to secure additional funding to operationalize the Company's technology before another company develops similar technology
and products.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements |
In February 2015, the
Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2015-02, "Amendments
to the Consolidation Analysis", which amends the consolidation requirements in ASC 810 and significantly changes the consolidation
analysis required under U.S. GAAP relating to whether or not to consolidate certain legal entities. Early adoption is permitted.
The Company's effective date for adoption is January 1, 2016. The Company does not expect this accounting update to have a material
effect on its consolidated financial statements in future periods, although that could change.
In January 2015, the
FASB issued ASU 2015-01, "Simplifying Income Statement Presentation by Eliminating the Concept of Extraordinary Items",
which eliminates the concept from U.S. GAAP the concept of an extraordinary item. Under the ASU, an entity will no longer (1) segregate
an extraordinary item from the results of ordinary operations; (2) separately present an extraordinary item on its income statement,
net of tax, after income from continuing operations; or (3) disclose income taxes and earnings-per-share data applicable to an
extraordinary item. Early adoption is permitted. The Company's effective date for adoption is January 1, 2016. The Company
does not expect this accounting update to have a material effect on its consolidated financial statements in future periods, although
that could change.
In August 2014, the FASB
issued ASU No. 2014-15, Presentation of Financial Statements - Going Concern (Subtopic 205 40): Disclosure of Uncertainties about
an Entity's Ability to Continue as a Going Concern, which is intended to define management's responsibility to evaluate whether
there is substantial doubt about an entity's ability to continue as a going concern and to provide related footnote disclosures.
Specifically, ASU 2014-15 provides a definition of the term substantial doubt and requires an assessment for a period of one year
after the date that the financial statements are issued (or available to be issued). It also requires certain disclosures when
substantial doubt is alleviated as a result of consideration of management's plans and requires an express statement and other
disclosures when substantial doubt is not alleviated. The new standard will be effective for reporting periods beginning after
December 15, 2016, with early adoption permitted. Management does not expect the adoption of ASU 2014-15 to have a material impact
on our financial statements and disclosures.
In May 2014, the FASB
issued ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (ASU 2014-09), which supersedes most existing revenue recognition guidance
under US GAAP. The core principle of ASU 2014-09 is to recognize revenues when promised goods or services are transferred to customers
in an amount that reflects the consideration to which an entity expects to be entitled for those goods or services. ASU 2014-09
defines a five step process to achieve this core principle and, in doing so, more judgment and estimates may be required within
the revenue recognition process than are required under existing U.S. GAAP. The standard is effective for annual periods beginning
after December 15, 2017, and interim periods therein, using either of the following transition methods: (i) a full retrospective
approach reflecting the application of the standard in each prior reporting period with the option to elect certain practical expedients,
or (ii) a retrospective approach with the cumulative effect of initially adopting ASU 2014-09 recognized at the date of adoption
(which includes additional footnote disclosures). The Company does not expect this accounting update to have a material effect
on its consolidated financial statements in future periods.
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.

have any commercialized products and has not generated any revenue since inception. The Company has an accumulated deficit of $29,039,014
as of August 31, 2015, 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.
In its report with respect
to the Company's financial statements for the year ended August 31, 2015, the Company's independent auditors expressed substantial
doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. Because the Company has not yet generated revenues from its operations
and does not expect to do so in the near future, its ability to continue as a going concern is wholly dependent upon its ability
to obtain additional financing. Currently, the Company is seeking additional financing but has no commitments to obtain any such
financing, and there can be no assurance that financing will be available in amounts or on terms acceptable to the Company, if
at all.
As of August 31, 2015,
the Company had cash of $228,465. Subsequent to its year end, the Company received $400,000 of bridge financing. 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 January 2016.
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 programs, sell rights to its SolarWindow technology and/or MotionPowerTM technology or other technologies
or products based upon such technologies, or license the rights to such 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.
|
Principles of Consolidation |
These consolidated financial
statements presented are those of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries, KEC, and New Energy Solar. All significant intercompany
balances and transactions have been eliminated.
|
Estimates |
The preparation of the
Company's consolidated financial statements requires management to make estimates and use assumptions that affect the reported
amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, and expenses. These estimates and assumptions are affected by management's application
of accounting policies. On an on-going basis, the Company evaluates its estimates. Actual results and outcomes may differ materially
from these estimates and assumptions.
|
Cash and Cash Equivalents |
Cash and cash equivalents
includes highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less. The Company has amounts deposited with financial
institutions in excess of federally insured limits.
|
Property, Plant, and Equipment |
Fixed assets are carried
at cost, less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Major improvements are capitalized, while repair and maintenance are expensed
when incurred. Renewals and betterments that materially extend the life of the assets are capitalized. When assets are retired
or otherwise disposed of, the cost and related accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts, and any resulting gain or
loss is reflected in income for the period.
For federal income tax
purposes, depreciation is computed under the modified accelerated cost recovery system. Depreciation for financial statement purposes
is computed on a straight-line basis over estimated useful lives of the related assets. The estimated useful lives of depreciable
assets are:

|

|

|
|
Fair Value Measurement |
The Company measures
fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in an orderly transaction
between market participants at the reporting date. The Company utilizes a three-tier hierarchy which prioritizes the inputs used
in the valuation methodologies in measuring fair value:
Level 1. Valuations based on quoted
prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that an entity has the ability to access. The Company has no assets
or liabilities valued with Level 1 inputs.
Level 2. Valuations based on quoted
prices for similar assets or liabilities, quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, or
other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.
The Company has no assets or liabilities valued with Level 2 inputs.
Level 3. Valuations based on inputs
that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities. The
Company has no assets or liabilities valued with Level 3 inputs.
|
Fair Value of Financial Instruments |
The carrying value of
cash and cash equivalents, accounts payable and interest payable approximate their fair value because of the short-term nature
of these instruments and their liquidity. It is not practical to determine the fair value of the Company's notes payable due to
the complex terms. Management is of the opinion that the Company is not exposed to significant interest or credit risks arising
from these financial instruments.
|
Research and Development |
Research and development
costs represent costs incurred to develop the Company's technology, including salaries and benefits for research and development
personnel, allocated overhead and facility occupancy costs, supplies, equipment purchase and repair and other costs. Research and
development costs are expensed when incurred, except for nonrefundable advance payments for future research and development activities
which are capitalized and recognized as expense as the related services are performed.
|
Stock-Based Compensation |
The Company measures
all employee stock-based compensation awards using a fair value method on the date of grant and recognizes such expense in its
consolidated financial statements over the requisite service period. The Company uses the Black-Scholes-Merton formula to determine
the fair value of stock-based compensation awards on the date of grant. The Black-Scholes-Merton formula requires management to
make assumptions regarding the option lives, expected volatility, and risk free interest rates. See "NOTE 3 Common
Stock and Warrants" and "NOTE 4 - Stock Options" for additional information on the Company's stock-based compensation
plans.
|
Income Taxes |
The Company accounts
for income taxes using the asset and liability method. Under the asset and liability method, deferred tax assets and liabilities
are recognized for the future tax consequences attributed to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing
assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and tax credits and loss carry-forwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities
are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences and
carry-forwards are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates
is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. A valuation allowance is established when necessary to
reduce deferred tax assets to amounts expected to be realized. The Company reports a liability for unrecognized tax benefits resulting
from uncertain income tax positions, if any, taken or expected to be taken in an income tax return. Estimated interest and penalties
are recorded as a component of interest expense or other expense, respectively.
|
Segment Reporting |
The Company's business
is considered to be operating in one segment based upon the Company's organizational structure, the way in which the operations
are managed and evaluated, the availability of separate financial results and materiality considerations.
|
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). See "NOTE 5 - Net Loss Per Share" for further discussion.

Disclose: (a) pertinent conditions and events giving rise to the assessment of substantial doubt about the entity's ability to continue as a going concern for a reasonable period of time, (b) the possible effects of such conditions and events, (c) management's evaluation of the significance of those conditions and events and any mitigating factors, (d) possible discontinuance of operations, (e) management's plans (including relevant prospective financial information), and (f) information about the recoverability or classification of recorded asset amounts or the amounts or classification of liabilities. If management's plans alleviate the substantial doubt about the entity's ability to continue as a going concern, disclosure of the principal conditions and events that initially raised the substantial doubt about the entity's ability to continue as a going concern would be expected to be considered. Disclose whether operations for the current or prior years generated sufficient cash to cover current obligations, whether waivers were obtained from creditors relating to the company's default under the provisions of debt agreements and possible effects of such conditions and events, such as: whether there is a possible need to obtain additional financing (debt or equity) or to liquidate certain holdings to offset future cash flow deficiencies. Disclose appropriate parent company information when parent is dependent upon remittances from subsidiaries to satisfy its obligations.

- DefinitionTabular disclosure of warrants or rights issued. Warrants and rights outstanding are derivative securities that give the holder the right to purchase securities (usually equity) from the issuer at a specific price within a certain time frame. Warrants are often included in a new debt issue to entice investors by a higher return potential. The main difference between warrants and call options is that warrants are issued and guaranteed by the company, whereas options are exchange instruments and are not issued by the company. Also, the lifetime of a warrant is often measured in years, while the lifetime of a typical option is measured in months. Disclose the title of issue of securities called for by warrants and rights outstanding, the aggregate amount of securities called for by warrants and rights outstanding, the date from which the warrants or rights are exercisable, and the price at which the warrant or right is exercisable.

- DefinitionThe estimated measure of the percentage by which a share price is expected to fluctuate during a period. Volatility also may be defined as a probability-weighted measure of the dispersion of returns about the mean. The volatility of a share price is the standard deviation of the continuously compounded rates of return on the share over a specified period. That is the same as the standard deviation of the differences in the natural logarithms of the stock prices plus dividends, if any, over the period.
