On August 29, Malcolm Albery resigned as President and was replaced by Dieter Sauer.  In the following month, the Company changed its name from BCO Hydrocarbon Ltd. to Sauer Energy, Inc.


The Companys fiscal year-end is August 31.


Basis of presentation Our accounting and reporting policies conform to U.S. generally accepted accounting principles applicable to developing enterprises.


Use of estimates - Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amountamounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.


Cash and cash equivalents - For purposes of the statement of cash flows, we consider all cash in banks, money market funds, and certificates of deposit with a maturity of less than six months to be cash equivalents.

Fixed assets - Property, plant and equipment is valued at cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment losses. If the costs of certain components of an item of property, plant and equipment are significant in relation to the total cost of the item, they are accounted for and depreciated separately.   Depreciation expense is recognized using the straight-line method for the vehicle and the double declining method for all remaining assets and is amortized over the estimated useful life of the related asset. The following useful lives are assumed:


Vehicle & Equipment

5 years


Furniture & Fixtures

7 Years


Fair Value of Financial Instruments -

The Financial Accounting Standards Board issued   ASC (Accounting Standards Codification) 820-10 (SFAS No. 157), Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures" for financial assets and liabilities. ASC 820-10 provides a framework for measuring fair value and requires expanded disclosures regarding fair value measurements.  FASB ASC 820- 10820-10 defines fair value as the price that would be received for an asset or the exit price that would be paid to transfer a liability in the principal or most advantageous market in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date.  FASB ASC 820-10 also establishes a fair value hierarchy which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs, where available. The following summarizes the three levels of inputs required by the standard that the Company uses to measure fair value:


·

- Level 1:  Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

·

Level 2:  Observable inputs other than Level 1 prices such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the related assets or liabilities.

·

Level 3:  Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities.


- Level 2: Observable inputs other than Level 1 prices such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the related assets or liabilities.


- Level 3: Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities.

The carrying amounts of the Companys financial instruments as of February 29,August 31, 2016, reflect:


·

- Cash: Level One measurement based on bank reporting.


- Loan receivable and loans from Officers and related parties: Level 2

Cash:  Level 1   Measurement based on bank reporting.

§

Level 2   Loans from Officers and related parties

·

Level 2   Based on promissory notes.


- Derivative liability: Level two measurement based upon the relative fair market value of the Companys free trading common stock.



Federal income taxes-The

The Company utilizes FASB ASCACS 740, Income Taxeswhich requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the financial statements or tax returns. Under this method, deferred income taxes are recognized for the tax consequences in future years of differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their financial reporting amounts at each period end based on enacted tax laws and statutory tax rates applicable to the periods in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income.  A valuation allowance is recorded when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely-than-not that a deferred tax asset will not be realized. The Company generated a deferred tax credit through net operating loss carry-forward.  A valuation allowance of 100% has been established.


Interest and penalties on tax deficiencies recognized in accordance with ASC accounting standards are classified as income taxes in accordance with ASC Topic 740-10-50-19.


Research and development costs -

The Company expenses costs of research and development cost as incurred. ResearchThe costs for the three months ended February 28, 2017, and developmentthree months ended February 29, 2016, were $79,494 and $51,806

respectively. The costs for the six months ended February 29, 2016,28, 2017, and February 28, 2015, was $96,977 and $133,695 respectively.

The Company records stock-based compensation in accordance with ASC 718, Compensation  Stock Based Compensation and $10,613 respectively.ASC 505, Equity Based Payments to Non-Employees, which requires the measurement and recognition of compensation expense based on estimated fair values for all share-based awards made to employees and directors, including stock options.

ASC 718 requires companies to estimate the fair value of share-based awards on the date of grant using an option-pricing model. The Company uses the Black-Scholes option-pricing model as its method of determining fair value. This model is affected by the Companys stock price as well as assumptions regarding a number of subjective variables. These subjective variables include, but are not limited to the Companys expected stock price volatility over the term of the awards, and actual and projected employee stock option exercise behaviors. The value of the portion of the award that is ultimately expected to vest is recognized as an expense in the statement of operations over the requisite service period.


All transactions in which goods or services are the consideration received for the issuance of equity instruments are accounted for based on the fair value of the consideration received or the fair value of the equity instrument issued, whichever is more reliably measurable.


Basic and Diluted Earnings (Loss) Per Share -

Net loss per share is calculated in accordance with FASB ASC 260, Earnings Per Share, for the period presented. Basic net loss per share is based upon the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted net loss per share is based on the assumption that all dilutive convertible shares and stock options were converted or exercised. Dilution is computed by applying the treasury stock method. Under this method, options and warrants are assumed exercised at the beginning of the period (or at the time of issuance, if later), and as if funds obtained thereby were used to purchase common stock at the average market price during the period. The Company hasdoes not have potentially dilutive securities



Page 8 of 25 outstanding.


outstanding consisting of warrants to purchase common stock, (see Note 11) and the conversion of convertible loans (see Note 7).  For the three months ended February 29, 2016, the warrants would not have been exercised since they are priced significantly higher than the market value of the Companys trading common stock, while the convertible loans would likely be converted due to the discount that would be applied to the market price. For the six months ended February 29, 2016, the exercise of warrants or conversions would be anti-dilutive since the Company was in a loss position, and they are not counted in the calculation of loss per share. All warrants expired in January, 2016, and no more were issued.  See Note 11 for additional discussion. The total common stock equivalents on a fully diluted basis if all outstanding agreements were exercised at February 29, 2016, and February 28, 2015, were -0- and 18,704,762 shares, respectively.


Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Management has considered all recent accounting pronouncements.  The following pronouncement was deemed applicable to our financial statements.


FASB ASU 2015-03: Interest Imputation of Interest (Subtopic 835-30): Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs. To simplify presentation of debt issuance costs, the amendments in this Update require that debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability, to be presented consistent with debt discounts. The recognition and measurement guidance for debt issuance costs are not affected by the amendments in this update. This will be effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2015, and interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company does not anticipate significant impact upon its financial statements at this time and will continue to evaluation the potential for such impact.

The Company is reviewing this standard and its effect upon our disclosures in the financial statements. The Company does not expect that the adoption of the standard will have a material effect upon the Companys financial statements.


A variety of proposed or otherwise potential accounting standards are currently under study by standard setting organizations and various regulatory agencies.  Due to the tentative and preliminary nature of those proposed standards, the Companys management has not determined whether implementation of such standards would be material to its financial statements.

The Company is reviewing the effects of following recent updates.  The Company has no expectation that any of these items will have a material effect upon the financial statements.

Share based payments and awards


The company has adopted the use of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123R, Share-Based Payment (SFAS No. 123R) (now contained in FASB Codification Topic 718, Compensation-Stock Compensation, or Topic 718), which supersedes APB Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and its related implementation guidance and eliminates the alternative to use Opinion 25s intrinsic value method of accounting that was provided in Statement 123 as originally issued. This Statement requires an entity to measure the cost of employee services received in exchange for an award of an equity instruments, which includes grants of stock options and stock warrants, based on the fair value of the award, measured at the grant date, (with limited exceptions). Under this standard, the fair value of each award is estimated on the grant date, using an option-pricing model that meets certain requirements. We use the Black- Scholes option-pricing model to estimate the fair value of our equity awards, including stock options and warrants. The Black-Scholes model meets the requirements of Topic 718; however, the fair values generated may not reflect their actual fair values, as it does not consider certain factors, such as vesting requirements, employee attrition and transferability limitations. The Black-Scholes model valuation is affected by our stock price and a number of assumptions, including expected volatility, expected life, risk-free interest rate and expected dividends. We estimate the expected volatility and estimated life of our stock options at grant date based on historical volatility; however, due to the thinly traded nature of our stock, we have chosen to use an average of the annual volatility of like companies in our industry. For the risk-free interest rate, we use the Constant Maturity Treasury rate on 90 day government securities. The term is equal to the time until the option expires. The dividend yield is not applicable, as the company has not paid any dividends, nor do we anticipate paying them in the foreseeable future. The fair value of our restricted stock is based on the market value of our free trading common stock, on the grant date calculated using a 20 trading day average. At the time of grant, the share based-compensation expense is recognized in our financial statements based on awards that are ultimately expected to vest using historical employee attrition rates and the expense is reduced accordingly. For the six months ended February 29, 2016, and February 28, 2015, we recognized $0 in share based expense due to the issuance of common stock warrants.23

The Company's financial statements are prepared using the generally accepted accounting principles applicable to a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and

liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. However, the Company has accumulated a deficit of $8,836,044$(10,751,317) as of February 29, 2016,28, 2017, and hashad no revenues.


revenues, which raises substantial doubt as to the Companys ability to continue as a going concern.

In view of thethese matters, described above, recoverability of a major portion of the recorded asset amounts shown in the accompanying balance sheets is dependent upon continued operations of the Company, which in turn is dependent upon the Companys ability to raise additional capital, obtain financing and to succeed in its future operations. No assurance can be given that additional financing will be available when needed or that such financing will be available on terms acceptable to the Company.  This would have a material adverse effect on the Company and raises substantial doubt about the Companys ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern. Management plans to raise additional capital through the sale of stock to pursue business development activities.

Note 9 - Federal Income Taxes


income tax

No provision was made for federal income tax, since the Company has had significant net operating losses. Net operating loss carryforwards may be used to reduce taxable income through the year 2034.2035. The availability of the Companys net operating loss carryforwards are subject to limitation if there is a 50% or more positive change in the ownership of the Companys stock, unless the same or similar business is carried on. The net operating loss carryforward for federal and state income tax purposes was approximately $8.7M,$10,751,317, which will expire in 2029 through 20342035 if not utilized.  The Company uses 35% for a composite tax rate to estimate the value of net operating losses for deferred taxes.


The Company as of the six months ended February 28, 2017, and February 29, 2016, recognized net operating losses of approximately $861,069 and $173,544, respectively.  The total estimated deferred taxestax asset as of August 31, 2015 is $3,035,289.February 28, 2017, was $3,762,961.   The Company recorded a 100% valuation allowance for the deferred tax asset since it is more likely than not that some part or all of the deferred tax asset will not be realized.




Page 13 of 25


Although Management believes that its estimates are reasonable, no assurance can be given that the final tax outcome of these matters will not be different than that which is reflected in our tax provisions. Ultimately, the actual tax benefits to be realized will be based upon future taxable earnings levels, which are very difficult to predict.



No provision was made for federal income tax, since the Company had an overall net operating loss and has accumulated net operating loss carryforwards.Page 12 of 23


For the sixthree months ended February 28, 2017, and February 29, 2016, no income tax expense has been realized as a result of operations and no income tax penalties and/or interest have been accrued related to uncertain tax positions.  The Company files income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction and in the State of California.  These filings are subject to a three-year statute of limitations.  The Companys evaluation of income tax positions included in the years ended August 31, 2015,2013 through 2013, and2016, could be subject to agency examinations.  No filings are currently under examination.  No adjustments have been made to reduce the estimated income tax benefit at fiscal year-end or at the quarterly reporting dates.  Any valuations relating to these income tax provisions will comply with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

On October 23, 2013, the Company filed a complaint against St George Investments, LLC (St. George") in Superior Court, Ventura County California seeking declaratory relief as to contracts relating to the Companys May 2012, purchase of the assets of Helix Wind from St. George for treasury stock then valued in excess of $1.8 Million and a subsequent February, 2013, promissory note for $275,000 executed under the terms of an amendment to the May, 2012, asset purchase agreement.  The Company alleged that the Helix Wind asset purchase price had been substantially paid and, in fact, may have been overpaid in light of St. Georges failure to deliver all of the intellectual property of Helix Wind. St. George

interpreted the contracts and promissory note as entitling it to a windfall recovery above and beyond the asset purchase price and promissory note amount. On November 21, 2013, St George exercised its right as a non-California based entity to remove the action from the Ventura state court to the federal court sitting in Los Angeles, the United States District Court for the Central District of California.  On November 26, 2013, St. George filed its answer and counterclaim seeking to enforce its interpretation of the contracts and to thereby collect approximately $440,000 above and beyond what is otherwise due, plus costs and attorney fees. On February 3, 2014, the parties participated in a mediation session at the Federal Court and executed an agreement reflecting a settlement in principal (the Settlement) which becomes binding only if the parties are unable to come to terms on more formal settlement agreements.  The parties have since executed more formal settlement agreements which are included as an exhibit hereto.  The basic terms of the Settlement required the issuance of an additional 5,000,000 shares of our common stock to St George under the Helix APA; required St. George to purchase additional shares of our common stock for $300,000 ($0.15 per share) which is a price above the market price at the time of the Settlement; fixed the amount due on the note issued to St George in connection with the Helix APA at $600,000 and granted the Company certain prepayment rights.  The Settlement provides for limitations on the amounts of our common stock that St. George may sell into the market.

As of February 29, 2016, the Company still owed St. George $75,000. See Note Full and final settlement was completed on April 6, 7 and 14.2016.

As of December 23, 2015,July 1, 2016, the Registrant entered into two agreements with Beaufort Capital Partners, LLC, a New York limited liability corporation (BCPLLC), an Equity Purchase Agreement (the EPA) and a Registration Rights Agreement (the RRA).  The two agreements we filed as exhibits to the Registrants Current Report on Form 8-K dated December 23, 2015,July 1, 2016, and the Registrants Registration Statement on Form S-1 Number 333-208866333-212536 and the following summary is qualified in its entirety by reference to such exhibits.


The agreements required the Registrant to file a registration statement for the common stock underlying the EPA. Subject to various limitations set forth in the EPA, BCPLLC, after effectiveness of such registration statement, was required to purchase up to $3,000,000 worth of the Registrants common stock at a price equal to 72% of the market price as determined under the EPA (prior ten trading days).  The EPA provides for volume limitations on the amountnumber of shares that BCPLLC must purchase at any time and provides that the Registrant will be paid for the common stock upon electronic delivery of the shares to BCPLLC.  BCPLLC bore the attorney fees relating to the Registration Statement and is not charging the Registrant any additional fees.


On February 17,September 8, 2016, the Securities and Exchange deemed our Registration Statement that was filed on January 5,July 15, 2016, effective.  As stated above, we have begun exercising our put rights under the EPA.  As of April 7, 2017, have sold all of the shares included in such Registration Statement and realized proceeds of $762,571.


Funds on hand are not sufficient to fund our operations and we intend to rely on the sale of stock in private placements to increase liquidity and, we anticipate deriving additional revenue from product sales in fiscal 2016,2017, but we cannot at this time quantify the amount.  If we are unable to raise cash through the sale of our stock, we may be required to severely restrict our operations.


Critical Accounting Policies


Financial Reporting Release No. 60 of the SEC encourages all companies to include a discussion of critical accounting policies or methods used in the preparation of the financial statements. There are no current revenue-generating activities that give rise to significant assumptions or estimates.  Our financial statements filed as part of our February 29, 2016,28, 2017, Quarterly Report on this Form 10-Q includes a summary of the significant accounting policies and methods used in the preparation of our financial statements.


Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements


We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or

Item 3. - Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk


The Company is a smaller reporting company and is not required to provide this information.


Item 4T. - Controls and Procedures


Disclosure Controls and Procedures




Page 17 of 23


Regulations under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the Exchange Act) require public companies to maintain disclosure controls and procedures, which are defined as controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the issuer in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission's rules and forms.  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.


We conducted an evaluation, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer who is also our principal financial officer, of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of February 29, 2016.28, 2017.  Based on that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer has concluded that as of February 29, 2016,28, 2017, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective at the reasonable assurance level due to the material weaknesses described below.


In light of the material weaknesses described below, we performed additional analysis and other post-closing procedures to ensure our financial statements were prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.  Accordingly, we believe that the financial statements included in this report fairly present, in all material respects, our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented.


A material weakness is a control deficiency (within the meaning of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (PCAOB) Auditing Standard No. 2) or combination of control deficiencies that result in more than a remote likelihood that a material misstatement of the annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected.  Management has identified the following three material weaknesses that have caused management to conclude that, as of February 29, 2016,28, 2017, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective at the reasonable assurance level:


1.           We do not have written documentation of our internal control policies and procedures. Written documentation of key internal controls over financial reporting is a requirement of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act which is applicable to us for the year ending August 31, 2015,2016, and the quarter ended February 29, 2016.28, 2017. Management evaluated the impact of our failure to have written documentation of our internal controls



Page 19 of 25


and procedures on our assessment of our disclosure controls and procedures and has concluded that the control deficiency that resulted represented a material weakness.


2.           We do not have sufficient segregation of duties within accounting functions, which is a basic internal control.  Due to our size and nature, segregation of all conflicting duties may not always be possible and may not be economically feasible.  However, to the extent possible, the initiation of transactions, the custody of assets and the recording of transactions should be performed by separate individuals.  Management evaluated the impact of our failure to have segregation of duties on our assessment of our disclosure controls and procedures and has concluded that the control deficiency that resulted represented a material weakness.


3.

The Board of Directors has not provided an appropriate level of oversight of the Companys financial reporting and procedures for internal control over financial reporting since there are, at present, no independent directors who could provide an appropriate level of oversight, including challenging managements accounting for and reporting of transactions.  Accordingly, we have determined that this control deficiency constitutes a material weakness.




Page 18 of 23


To address these material weaknesses, management performed additional analyses and other procedures to ensure that the financial statements included herein fairly present, in all material respects, our financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented.


Management's Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. Internal control over financial reporting is defined in Rule 13a-15(f) or 15d-15(f) promulgated under the Exchange Act as a process designed by, or under the supervision of, the issuers principal executive and principal financial officers and effected by the issuers board of directors, management and other personnel, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external

purposes in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and includes those policies and procedures that:


·

Pertain to the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the issuer;


·

Provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and that receipts and expenditures of the Company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the issuer; and


·

Provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of the issuers assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.


Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject



Page 20 of 25


to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.  All internal control systems, no matter how well designed, have inherent limitations.  Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation and presentation.  Because of the inherent limitations of internal control, there is a risk that material misstatements may not be prevented or detected on a timely basis by internal control over financial reporting. However, these inherent limitations are known features of the financial reporting process.  Therefore, it is possible to design into the process safeguards to reduce, though not eliminate, this risk.


As of the end of our most recent fiscal quarter, management assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting based on the criteria for effective internal control over financial reporting established in Internal Control2013 Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission ("COSO") and SEC guidance on conducting such assessments.  Based on that evaluation, they concluded that, as of February 29, 2016,28, 2017, such internal control over financial reporting was not effective.  This was due to deficiencies that existed in the design or operation of our internal control over financial reporting that adversely affected our internal controls and that may be considered to be material weaknesses.

 

The matters involving internal control over financial reporting that our management considered to be material weaknesses under the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board were: (1) lack of a functioning audit committee due to a lack of a majority of independent members and a lack of a majority of outside directors on our board of directors, resulting in ineffective oversight in the establishment and monitoring of required internal controls and procedures; and (2) inadequate segregation of duties consistent with control objectives of having segregation of the initiation of transactions, the



Page 19 of 23


recording of transactions and the custody of assets.  The aforementioned material weaknesses were identified by our Chief Executive Officer in connection with the review of our financial statements as of February 29, 2016.28, 2017.


Management believes that the material weaknesses set forth in items (1) and (2) above did not have an effect on our financial results.  However, management believes that the lack of a functioning audit committee and the lack of a majority of outside directors on our board of directorsdirectors results in ineffective oversight in the establishment and monitoring of required internal controls and procedures, which could result in a material misstatement in our financial statements in future periods.


This quarterly report does not include an attestation report of the Company's registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting.  Management's report was not subject to attestation by the Company's registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the SEC that permit the Company to provide only the management's report in this quarterly report.

Management's Remediation Initiatives


In an effort to remediate the identified material weaknesses and other deficiencies and enhance our internal controls, we have initiated, or plan to initiate, the following series of measures:

We will increase our personnel resources and technical accounting expertise within the accounting function when funds are available to us. First, we will create a position to segregate duties consistent with control objectives of having separate individuals perform (i) the initiation of transactions, (ii) the recording of transactions and (iii) the custody of assets. Second, we will create a senior position to focus on financial reporting and standardizing and documenting our accounting procedures with the goal of increasing the effectiveness of the internal controls in preventing and detecting misstatements of accounting information. Third, we plan to appoint one or more outside directors to our board of directors who shall be appointed to an audit committee resulting in a fully functioning audit committee who will undertake the oversight in the establishment and monitoring of required internal controls and procedures such as reviewing and approving estimates and assumptions made by management when funds are available to us. Although there is substantial uncertainty in any such estimate, we anticipate the costs of implementing these remediation initiatives will be approximately $100,000 to $150,000 a year in increased salaries, legal and accounting expenses.


Management believes that the appointment of one or more outside directors, who shall be appointed to a fully functioning audit committee, will remedy the lack of a functioning audit committee and a lack of a majority of outside directors on our Board.


We anticipate that these initiatives will be at least partially, if not fully, implemented by August 31, 2016.2017.


Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting


There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15 (f) under the Exchange Act) during the quarter ended February 29, 2016,28, 2017, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.


PART II OTHER INFORMATION


Item 1 Legal Proceedings


On October 23, 2013, the Company filed a complaint against St George Investments, LLC (St. George") in Superior Court, Ventura County California seeking declaratory relief as to contracts relating to the



Page 20 of 23


Companys May 2012 purchase of the assets of Helix Wind from St. George for treasury stock then valued in excess of $1.8 Million and a subsequent February 2013 promissory note for $275,000 executed under the terms of an amendment to the May, 2012 asset purchase agreement.  The Company alleged that the Helix Wind asset purchase price had been substantially paid and, in fact, may have been overpaid in light of St. Georges failure to deliver all of the intellectual property of Helix Wind. St. George interpreted the contracts and promissory note as entitling it to a windfall recovery above and beyond the asset purchase price and promissory note amount. On November 21, 2013, St George exercised its right as a non-California based entity to remove the action from the Ventura state court to the federal court

The foregoing is a summary only and is qualified by reference to the settlement agreement included as an exhibit to the Companys Form 10-K for the year ended August 31, 2014.  As of April 2016, the note and settlement has been paid in full.
