SOLARWINDOW TECHNOLOGIES, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)
NOTE 1 – Organization
Organization
SolarWindow Technologies, Inc. was incorporated in the State of Nevada on May 5, 1998 (“SWT” and together with its controlled subsidiary companies, SolarWindow Asia (USA) Corp., and SolarWindow Asia Co. Ltd, collectively, the “Company”). SolarWindow® technology harvests light energy from the sun and from artificial light sources using a transparent and ultra-lightweight coating of organic photovoltaic (“OPV”) solar cells applied to glass and plastics, thereby generating electricity. The Company’s ticker symbol is WNDW.
On August 24, 2020, SolarWindow Technologies, Inc. formed wholly owned SolarWindow Asia (USA) Corp., a Nevada Corporation, as the holding company for SolarWindow Asia Co. Ltd., (the “Korean Subsidiary”) a company formed in the Republic of Korea for the purpose of expansion into the Asian markets. On January 13, 2023, the Board formally elected to dissolve the Korean Subsidiary. SWT has retained a local accountant and legal counsel in South Korea to assist in the dissolution of the Korean Subsidiary.
Liquidity
The Company has not generated any revenue since inception
and has sustained recurring losses and negative cash flows from operations since inception. We expect to incur losses as we continue to
develop and further refine and promote our technologies and potential product applications. As of February 28, 2025, the Company had $
NOTE 2 – Interim Statement Presentation
Basis of Presentation and Use of Estimates
The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements of the Company as of February 28, 2025, and for the three and six months ended February 28, 2025 and February 29, 2024 have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) for quarterly reports on Form 10-Q and do not include all of the information and note disclosures required by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) for complete financial statements. These Consolidated Financial Statements should therefore be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes thereto for the fiscal year ended August 31, 2024, included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on November 20, 2024.
The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP, which requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect amounts reported in the Consolidated Financial Statements and accompanying disclosures. Actual results may differ from those estimates. The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the same basis as the audited financial statements and include all adjustments (including normal recurring adjustments) that are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of the Company’s consolidated financial position as of February 28, 2025, results of operations, stockholders’ equity and cash flows for the three and six months ended February 28, 2025 and February 29, 2024. The Company did not record an income tax provision during the periods presented due to net taxable losses. The results of operations for any interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations for the entire year.
The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the accounting period. The Company considers its accounting policies relating to stock-based compensation to be the most significant accounting policy that involves management estimates and judgments. The Company has made accounting estimates based on the facts and circumstances available as of the reporting date. Actual amounts could differ from these estimates, and such differences could be material.
| 5 |
These consolidated financial statements presented are those of SWT and its wholly owned subsidiaries, SolarWindow Asia (USA) Corp., and the Korean Subsidiary. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.
As more fully described in Note 3, on January 13, 2023, the Board determined that it is in the best interests of the Company to discontinue operations in South Korea and to dissolve the Korean Subsidiary. In accordance with applicable accounting guidance, the results of the Korean Subsidiary are presented as discontinued operations in the Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Loss and, as such, have been excluded from continuing operations. The Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows are presented on a consolidated basis for both continuing operations and discontinued operations.
Information regarding the Company’s significant accounting policies is contained in Note 2, “Summary of significant accounting policies,” to the consolidated financial statements in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended August 31, 2024. Presented below and in the following notes is supplemental information that should be read in conjunction with “Notes to Financial Statements” in the Annual Report.
Fiscal quarter
The Company’s quarterly periods end on November 30, February 28, May 31, and August 31. The Company’s second quarter in fiscal 2025 and 2024 ended on February 28, 2025 and February 29, 2024, respectively.
Cash and Cash Equivalents and Short-Term Investments
Cash includes cash on hand and short-term investments
with original maturities of three months or less from the date of purchase. The Company had $

| Total cash and short-term investments | $ | $ |
Short-term investments
The Company determines the balance sheet classification
of its investments at the time of purchase and evaluates the classification at each balance sheet date. Money market funds, certificates
of deposit, and time deposits with maturities of greater than three months but no more than twelve months are carried at cost,
which approximates fair value and are recorded in the consolidated balance sheets in short-term investments. Time Deposits typically pay
earned interest at the time of maturity or redemption.

Accounting Pronouncements
The Company reviews new accounting standards as issued. Although some of these accounting standards issued or effective after the end of the Company’s previous fiscal year may be applicable, the Company has not identified any standards that the Company believes merit further discussion.
Recent accounting pronouncements not yet adopted
In November 2024, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2024-03, Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses. This new guidance is designed to improve the disclosures about the types of expenses, including employee compensation, depreciation, and amortization, and costs incurred related to inventory and manufacturing activities. ASU 2024-03 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2027 on a prospective basis with optional retrospective application. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently assessing the impact that adopting this new accounting standard will have on its consolidated financial statements.
In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-07, “Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures” (“ASU 2023-07”). ASU 2023-07 expands annual and interim disclosure requirements for reportable segments, primarily through enhanced disclosures about significant segment expenses. The standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, which means that it will be effective for our annual periods beginning September 1, 2024, and our interim periods beginning September 1, 2025. The Company expects to adopt ASU No. 2023-07 for our annual reporting for fiscal year 2025. The Company does not expect this guidance to have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.
Recently adopted accounting pronouncements
None.
NOTE 3 – Discontinued Operations
On January 13, 2023, the Board determined that it is in the best interests of the Company to discontinue operations in South Korea and to dissolve the Korean Subsidiary. The Company is working to dispose the Korean Subsidiary other than by sale in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 360-10-45-15, Long-Lived Assets to Be Disposed of Other Than by Sale.
| 7 |
In accordance with ASC 205-20, Discontinued Operations, the results of the Korean Subsidiary are presented as discontinued operations in the Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Loss, and, as such, have been excluded from continuing operations. The Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows are presented on a consolidated basis for both continuing operations and discontinued operations.
The following table summarizes the significant items included in income from discontinued operations, net of tax in the Consolidated Statement of Operations and Comprehensive Loss for the three and six months ended February 28, 2025 and February 29, 2024:

The cash flows related to discontinued operations
have not been segregated and are included in the consolidated statements of cash flows for all periods presented.
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).
The shares listed below were not included in the computation of diluted losses per share because to do so would be antidilutive for the periods presented:

On February 5, 2024, the Board modified the terms of the Series T warrants to extend the expiration date for an additional five (5) years. No other term was modified. The modification was not was not linked to any other financing arrangements. The Company calculated the incremental fair value of the modification at $400,000 which is presented on the Consolidated Statement of Operations as a deemed dividend for the three and six months ended February 29, 2024.

The Company measures share-based compensation cost on the grant date, based on the fair value of the award, and recognizes the expense on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period for awards expected to vest. The Company estimates the grant date fair value of stock options using a Black-Scholes valuation model. No stock options were granted during the three and six months ended February 28, 2025 and February 29, 2024. A summary of the Company’s stock option activity for the six months ended February 28, 2025 and related information follows:

These statements are expressed in good faith and based upon a reasonable basis when made, but there can be no assurance that these expectations will be achieved or accomplished.
Such forward-looking statements include statements regarding, among other things, (a) the potential markets for our technologies, our potential profitability, and cash flows, (b) our growth strategies, (c) expectations from our ongoing research and development activities, (d) anticipated trends in the technology industry, (e) our future financing plans, and (f) our anticipated needs for working capital. This information may involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties, and other factors that may cause our actual results, performance, or achievements to be materially different from the future results, performance, or achievements expressed or implied by any forward-looking statements. These statements may be found under “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” as well as in this Form 10-Q generally. Actual events or results may differ materially from those discussed in forward-looking statements as a result of various factors, including, without limitation, the matters described in this Form 10-Q generally.

When applied in ultra-thin layers to rigid glass, and flexible glass and plastic surfaces our LiquidElectricity® Coatings transform otherwise ordinary surfaces into photovoltaic devices capable of generating electricity from natural sun, artificial light, and low, shaded, or reflected light conditions while maintaining transparency.
Our LiquidElectricity® Coatings are under development with support from commercial contract firms and at the U.S. Department of Energy’s National Renewable Energy Laboratory, through Cooperative Research and Development Agreements.
We have overcome major technical challenges and achieved many important milestones resulting in an expansion of the potential applications of LiquidElectricity® Coatings which span multiple industries, including architectural, automotive, agrivoltaic, aerospace, commercial transportation and marine.

Currently, we do not have any commercial products and there is no assurance that we will successfully be able to design, develop, manufacture, or sell any commercial products in the future. Our product development programs involve ongoing R&D and product development efforts, and the commitment of significant resources to support the extensive invention, design, engineering, testing, prototyping, and intellectual property initiatives carried-out by our contract engineers, scientists, and consultants.
We plan to market any SolarWindow® products we commercialize through co-marketing and co-promotion, licensing, and distribution arrangements with third party collaborators, to advance the technical development and subsequent commercialization of our SolarWindow® products. We are actively seeking additional technologies and product licensing, joint venture arrangements, and manufacturing process integration relationships with commercial partners and industry; and organizations which have established technical competencies, market reach, and mature distribution networks in the solar PV, building-integrated PV, and alternative and renewable energy market industries. We believe that this approach could provide immediate access to existing distribution channels which can increase market penetration and commercial acceptance of our products, and enable us to avoid expending significant funds for development of a large sales and marketing organization.
On August 22, 2024 Lippert Components Inc. and SolarWindow Technologies, Inc. agreed to jointly pursue the integration of SolarWindow technologies into select Lippert components to produce transparent electricity-generating SolarWindow-Lippert Products. There is no assurance that any of the mutually defined goals will be attained or that future agreements will be successfully negotiated or consummated and no assurance that SolarWindow-Lippert Products will be successfully engineered, prototyped, tested, certified, manufactured, produced, or sold.
We cannot accurately predict the amount of funding, or the time required to successfully design, fabricate and commercialize SolarWindow® products. The actual cost and time required to commercialize our SolarWindow® technology may vary significantly depending on, among other things, the results of our product development efforts; the cost of developing, acquiring, or licensing various enabling technologies; changes in the focus and direction of our business or product development plans; competitive and technological advances; the cost of patent filing, prosecuting, defending and enforcing claims; demonstrating compliance with regulations and standards; and manufacturing, marketing and other costs that may be associated with product fabrication. Because of this uncertainty, even if financing is available to us, we may secure insufficient funding to effectuate our business and/or product development plans.
As of February 28, 2025, we had working capital of $3,573,448 and cash of $3,797,520. 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 over the next twelve months following the issuance of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
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 financings with financial or strategic investors in order to expand the range and scope of our business operations; however, 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 technology.
Stevenson-Wydler Cooperative Research and Development Agreement with the Alliance for Sustainable Energy
On March 18, 2011, we entered into the NREL CRADA with Alliance for Sustainable Energy, the operator of the NREL under its U.S. Department of Energy contract to advance the commercial development of our technology. Under terms of the NREL CRADA, NREL researchers make use of our exclusive intellectual property (“IP”), newly developed IP, and NREL’s background IP in order to work towards specific product development goals, established by the Company. Under the terms of the NREL CRADA, we agreed to reimburse Alliance for Sustainable Energy for filing fees associated with all documented, out-of-pocket costs directly related to patent application preparation and filings, and maintenance of the patent applications.
| 13 |
On March 6, 2013, we entered into Phase II of our NREL CRADA. Under the terms of the agreement, researchers will additionally work towards:
| · | further improving our technology efficiency and transparency; |
| · | optimizing electrical power (current and voltage) output; |
| · | optimizing the application of the active layer coatings and application processes which make it possible for LiquidElectricity® Coatings to generate electricity on glass surfaces; |
| · | developing improved electricity-generating coatings by enhancing performance, processing, reliability, and durability; |
| · | optimizing LiquidElectricity® Coating performance on flexible substrates; and |
| · | developing high speed and large area roll-to-roll (R2R) and sheet-to-sheet (S2S) coating application methods required for commercial-scale building integrated photovoltaic (“BIPV”) products and windows. |
On December 28, 2015, we executed another modification to the NREL CRADA (the “Modification”). Under the Modification, (i) the date of completion was extended to December 2017; and (ii) the Company and the NREL will work jointly towards achieving specific product development goals and objectives for the purpose of preparing to commercialize our OPV-based transparent electricity-generating coatings for various applications, including BIPV, glass and flexible plastics.
Over the course of our collaborative research and development efforts with the NREL under the CRADA, both parties have agreed to modifications to extend the date of completion. The Company and NREL have entered into twelve such No Cost Time Extensions (“NCTE”). Under the terms of each NCTE, all terms and conditions of the NREL CRADA remain in full force and effect without change. The current NCTE was executed on December 11, 2024, and extends the date of completion to December 31, 2025. As of February 28, 2025, the Company had a capitalized asset balance of $63,745 related to deferred research and development costs for advances to Alliance for Sustainable Energy for work to be performed under the NREL CRADA.

The Company increased its financing and business development activities in Q2 2025 and as a result incurred additional expenses related to professional fees, product sample production, shipping, and travel. Management anticipates further expanding these activities, and incurring additional expenses related thereto.
Selling, General and Administrative
Selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) costs include all expenditures incurred other than research and development related costs, including costs related to personnel, professional fees, travel, public company costs, insurance, and other office related costs. During the three months ended February 28, 2025 compared to the three months ended February 29, 2024, SG&A costs increased by $123,000 primarily due to higher professional and consulting fees ($53,000), personnel costs ($34,000), travel costs ($23,000), and other G&A costs ($13,000). During the six months ended February 28, 2025, compared to the six months ended February 29, 2024, SG&A costs increased by $100,340 primarily due to higher professional and consulting fees ($7,000), personnel costs ($65,000), travel costs ($23,000), and other G&A costs ($5,000).
Research and Product Development
Research and Development (“R&D”) costs represent costs incurred to develop our SolarWindow® technology and are incurred pursuant to our research agreements and agreements with other third-party providers and certain internal R&D cost allocations. Payments under these agreements include salaries and benefits for R&D personnel, allocated overhead, contract services and other costs. R&D costs are expensed when incurred, except for non-refundable advance payments for future research and development activities which are capitalized and recognized as expense as the related services are performed. During the three months ended February 28, 2025, compared to the three months ended February 29, 2024, R&D costs increased primarily as a result of an increase in personnel costs ($26,000) and R&D supplies costs ($18,000). During the six months ended February 28, 2025 compared to the six months ended February 29, 2024, R&D costs increased primarily as a result of an increase in personnel costs ($49,000) and R&D supplies costs ($17,000).
Stock Based Compensation
The Company grants stock options to its directors, employees and consultants. Stock compensation represents the expense associated with the amortization of our stock options. Expense associated with equity-based transactions is calculated and expensed in our financial statements as required pursuant to various accounting rules and is non-cash in nature. Stock based compensation expense increased during the three months ended February 28, 2025 compared to the three months ended February 29, 2024 due to the grant of 1,250,000 options in April 2024 which accounted for $51,562 of expense compared to 2024 which included $22,090 related to previously granted stock options and $26,750 related to the modification of certain option grants resulting in a one-time expense. Stock based compensation expense increased during the six months ended February 28, 2025 compared to the six months ended February 29, 2024 due to the grant of 1,250,000 options in April 2024 which accounted for $103,125 of expense compared to 2024 which included $45,305 related to previously granted stock options and $26,750 related to the modification of certain option grants resulting in a one-time expense.

Net loss from continuing operations
Consolidated net loss from continuing operations increased $188,484 to $630,044 for the three months ended February 28, 2025, as compared to a net loss from continuing operations of $441,560 for the three months ended February 29, 2024. Consolidated net loss from continuing operations increased $240,074 to $1,181,136 for the six months ended February 28, 2025, as compared to a net loss from continuing operations of $941,062 for the six months ended February 29, 2024. The increase for the three-and six-month periods ended February 28, 2025, compared to 2024 is primarily due to higher costs related to R&D, personnel, professional fees, travel and other G&A costs.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Our primary cash needs are for personnel, professional and R&D related fees and other administrative costs. Our principal sources of liquidity are cash. As of February 28, 2025, and August 31, 2024, the Company had cash and short-term investments of $3,797,520 and $4,249,446, respectively. We have financed our operations primarily from the sale of equity and debt securities.
The following table presents a summary of our cash flows for the periods indicated:
| Six Months Ended February 28, 2025 | Six Months Ended February 29, 2024 | 2025 compared to 2024 | ||||||||||
| Net cash used in operating activities | $ | (451,926 | ) | $ | (791,495 | ) | $ | 339,569 | ||||
| Net cash provided by investing activities | 3,000,000 | 1,498,051 | 1,501,949 | |||||||||

| Net increase in cash and cash equivalents | $ | 2,548,074 | $ | 706,555 | $ | 1,841,519 |
Operating Activities - Operating activities consist of net loss adjusted for certain non-cash items, including depreciation, stock-based compensation expense, and the effect of changes in working capital. The amount of cash used during the six months ended February 28, 2025 compared to cash used during the three months ended February 29, 2024 decreased $340,000 due primarily to the receipt of $610,000 related to the refund of an equipment deposit and $50,000 lower insurance premiums, offset by higher cash outlays related to personnel, R&D, travel, and changes in working capital.
Indebtedness
None.
Other Contractual Obligations
None.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
There were no off-balance sheet arrangements for the three and six months ended February 28, 2025 and February 29, 2024.
Recently Issued Accounting Standards
For more information regarding recent accounting standards and their impact to our results of operations and financial position, see “Note 2- Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” to our Financial Statements.
Critical Accounting Policies
Management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations is based upon our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. The preparation of these consolidated financial statements required the use of estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of our assets, liabilities, and expenses. Management bases estimates on historical experience and other assumptions it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances and evaluates these estimates on an on-going basis. Actual results may differ from these estimates. There have been no significant changes to the critical accounting policies and estimates included in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the three and six months ended February 28, 2025.

Related Party Transactions
For a discussion of our Related Party Transactions, see “Note–8 - Transactions With Related Persons” to our Financial Statements included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
BCSC Cease Trade Order dated January 10, 2023
As previously reported the Company received a Cease Trade Order dated January 10, 2023 (the “CTO”) from the British Columbia Securities Commission (the “BCSC”). The CTO was issued as a result of the Company’s inability to file its Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended August 31, 2022 on SEDAR+, and Subsequent quarterly reports for the periods ended November 30, 2022, February 28, 2023 and May 31, 2023 on a timely basis. Although, the Company does not have a class of stock that trades on any Canadian stock exchanges, the CTO effectively prevents the sale of our securities in Canada and to residents of Canada.
To have the CTO revoked, the Company is required to (i) be current in its periodic filings on SEDAR+, (ii) meet certain obligations as required according to Canadian Securities laws with respect to insider reporting and other disclosures, and (iii) file an Application for Revocation of a Cease Trade Order to the satisfaction of the BCSC. The Company believes it became compliant with the periodic filing requirements on October 10, 2023, with the filing of its quarterly reports on form 10-Q for the three and nine months ended May 31, 2023 on SEDAR+. The Company filed an Application for Revocation of a Cease Trade Order on SEDAR+ on October 23, 2024, and received comments from the BCSC on October 30, 2024 to which the Company filed a response on January 27, 2025. The Company received a second comment letter dated February 21, 2025 to which the Company filed a response on March 4, 2025. The Company has engaged Canadian counsel to assist it in evaluating the BCSC comments and in preparing its responses. The Company expects the CTO will remain in place until such time as the BCSC is satisfied with the Company’s response to its comments related to the Company’s Application for Revocation of a Cease Trade Order and a no further comment position is attained. The Company is unable to provide assurance as to the timing for the BCSC’s approval of the Application for Revocation of the Cease Trade Order or whether the BCSC will grant the revocation.
Due to the changes that have occurred in the Company’s operations and commercialization strategies which collectively have significantly altered the Company’s nexus to Canada and consistent with its decision to extricate itself from the Republic of South Korea and refocus its efforts in the United States, the Company, in consultation with Canadian counsel, is reviewing and re-evaluating its status as a reporting issuer in Canada so as to reduce, if not totally eliminate the potentially significant compliance costs associated with Canadian rules and regulations, many of which differ from the rules and regulations governing the Company’s operations in the United States. However, even if the Company were to cease being a reporting issuer in Canada, it will still be required to prosecute the Application for Revocation of the Cease Trade Order in Canada.
All of the current directors (other than Mr. Bullinger), and the Company’s Chief Financial Officer held such positions at the time that the CTO was issued.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
Market risk represents the risk of loss that may impact our financial position due to adverse changes in financial market prices and rates. Our market risk exposure is primarily the result of fluctuations in interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates. We do not hold or issue financial instruments for trading purposes.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Our Acting Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer (“Management”), after evaluating the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) as of February 28, 2025, have concluded that, as of such date, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by an issuer in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the issuer’s management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Management does not expect that the Company’s disclosure controls or the Company’s internal controls will prevent all errors and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, have been detected. Because of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected. We will conduct periodic evaluations of our internal controls to enhance, where necessary, our procedures and controls.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting identified in connection with the evaluation described above that occurred during the three months ended February 28, 2025 that have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect our internal control over financial reporting.
PART II – OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1A. Risk Factors
In addition to the other information set forth in this report, you should carefully consider the factors discussed in Part I, “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K, as amended on Form 10-K/A (Amendment No. 2) filed with the SEC on March 27, 2025, for the year ended August 31, 2024, which could materially affect our business, financial condition, financial results, or future performance. There have been no material changes from the risk factors previously disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended August 31, 2024.
