Nature of Operations
  
From 1989 through 2008, InMedica Development Corporation (“InMedica”) and its then majority-owned subsidiary, MicroCor, Inc. (“MicroCor”) were engaged in research and development of a device to measure hematocrit non-invasively (the “Non-Invasive Hematocrit Technology” and/or the “Technology”).  On June 24, 2010, WindGen terminated the former Development Agreement with Wescor and entered into a new agreement whereby WindGen transferred 230,000 shares of MicroCor commons stock owned by WindGen reducing WindGen’s holdings in MicroCor from 1,700,000 common shares to 1,470,000 common shares, reducing its ownership percentage from 57% to 49%. Since WindGen’s ownership percentage is now less than 50%, MicroCor’s financial statements are no longer consolidated with WindGen’s financial statements. Synergistic Equities, Ltd. has acquired all of the shares of MicroCor previously owned by Chi Lin Technology, Ltd.
 
On April 17, 2009, we entered into a license agreement (the “License”) with Wind Sail Receptor, Inc. of Boulder City, Nevada (“WSR”), pursuant to which we were granted the exclusive license to assemble and market WSR’s wind sail receptor energy generation devices using blades of 15 feet or less in length in the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom and Ireland, with nonexclusive rights in the rest of the world except Latin America and the Caribbean. Under the License, we must acquire 100 blades from WSR during the first year after WSR is able to manufacture the blades.  WSR is currently in the final stages of selecting the electrical generator that it will connect to the WSR wind turbine blade.
 
During 2010, the Company issued 1,900,000 shares of the Company’s restricted common stock to WSR in consideration of amending its License.  The proposed amendment to the License Agreement currently in existence between the Company and WSR has not yet been executed. The reasons are various and include, but are not limited to, finalizing details regarding the need for the Company to be involved in assembly of the wind turbines in various license territory outside the US, final pricing that the units will be sold by WSR to the Company, final terms of the product Warranty to be provided by WSR, and possible additional exclusive territory added to the License.  Under the terms of the existing License, the Company intended to use its best efforts to obtain Federal, State, Local, or Private Grant Funds and to share these Grant Funds with WSR up to a sum of $1,000,000. To date the Company has not been successful in obtaining Grant Funds. The proposed amendment also could result in altering the various financial dealings between the two companies. No monetary disputes currently exist between the two companies.  WSR is hopeful that it will begin production of complete wind turbine systems during the fourth quarter of 2011.  WSR is currently in the process of finalizing its supply chain relationships for the production of the wind turbine generator/alternator system with various suppliers in China. The wind turbine blade will be made in Nevada USA. WSR still anticipates that the six foot diameter small wind turbine will be available to WindGen in the fourth quarter of this year. WindGen is currently beginning to finalize its distribution network for the Western US.
 
We anticipate our first three wind turbine products will have blade diameters of 3, 6 and 12 feet with towers from 25 to 75 feet in height. The first unit to be offered in the market place will be the six foot blade diameter unit. We are currently negotiating terms for the formation of the working capital required to bring our first products to market at some point during the fourth quarter of 2011. The progress of the Company in marketing its new small wind turbine products is dependent on obtaining additional capital. 
 
To date during 2011, WSR has been developing a well-organized approach to the manufacturing/assembly process to assure high-quality, rapid-development cycles and overall competiveness.  The Generator/Alternators will be manufactured by Ginlong Technologies Inc, an experienced wind turbine generator manufacturer located in China. WSR will also be responsible for the manufacture of the critical blade component at its plant near Boulder City, Nevada.  At this time suppliers have been located for all of the non-blade components for our products.
 
To launch into the important rural small wind turbine market in the central wind belt and the western part of the United States (our initial marketing objective), we hope to join forces with some excellent partners and distributorships.  We intend to recruit existing well established wind turbine distributors currently representing our competitors.  In addition, we are currently in contact with various major name brand farm equipment dealers who have a well-established rural network of dealers throughout America, all with the ability to provide excellent sales, installation, and maintenance services.  We also plan to sell distributorships to other existing service-oriented organizations such as cell tower installers.
 
We are currently in the process of finalizing our six foot diameter wind turbine that should be available during the fourth quarter of 2011.  Subject to availability of adequate capital, product roll out could follow quickly in the central wind belt and the western part of the United States.
 
On December 4, 2009, the Company changed its name from InMedica Development Corp to WindGen Energy, Inc.
 
Basis of Presentation
 
The Company’s unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business.  The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustment relating to recoverability and classification of recorded amounts of assets and liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.  The Company generated negative cash flows from operations of $107,012 and $148,882 for the six month periods ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively, and net losses from operations of $199,541 and $161,776 for the six month periods ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively.   As of June 30, 2011, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $9,561,305 and a working capital deficit of $154,360. These conditions raise substantial doubt as to the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.  The Company’s continued existence is dependent upon its ability to execute its operating plan and to obtain additional debt or equity financing.  There can be no assurance the necessary debt or equity financing will be available, or will be available on terms acceptable to the Company.  Management’s operating plan includes pursuing additional fund raising as well as putting in place all the initial requirements in anticipation of the Company beginning operations and generating revenue during the fourth quarter of 2011.
 
The accompanying consolidated financial statements of the Company are unaudited. However, in management’s opinion, all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments necessary for fair presentation of results for the interim periods shown, have been made. Results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of those to be expected for the full year.  These consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes to consolidated financial statements included in the Company’s annual report on form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010.

Principles of Consolidation
 
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of WindGen Energy, Inc. (“WindGen”) and its majority owned subsidiary, MicroCor, Inc. (“MicroCor”) through June 24, 2010.  As of June 24, 2010, MicroCor’s financial statements are no longer being consolidated with WindGen’s financial statements.
 
Research and Development
 
Research and development costs are expensed as incurred.
 
Net Loss per Common Share
 
Basic net loss per common share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the year.  Diluted net loss per common share (“Diluted EPS”) reflects the potential dilution that could occur if stock options or other common stock equivalents were exercised or converted into common stock.  At June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively, there were 401,582 and 31,524 potentially dilutive common stock equivalents.  The computation of Diluted EPS does not assume exercise or conversion of securities that would have an anti-dilutive effect on net loss per common share.
 
Use of Estimates
 
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America 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 amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.
 
Comprehensive Income
 
There are no components of comprehensive income other than the net loss. 
 
Cash Equivalents
 
For the purpose of reporting cash flows, the Company considers all highly liquid debt instruments purchased with maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents to the extent the funds are not being held for investment purposes.
 
Concentration of Credit Risk
 
The Company has no significant off-balance-sheet concentrations of credit risk such as foreign exchange contracts, options contracts or other foreign hedging arrangements.  The Company maintains the majority of its cash balances with one financial institution, in the form of demand deposits.
 
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
 
The carrying value of the Company’s financial instruments, including receivables, accounts payable, accrued liabilities, and notes payable at June 30, 2011 and 2010 approximates their fair values due to the short-term nature of these financial instruments.

Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets
 
Goodwill and other intangible assets are recorded under the provisions of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) ASC 350  (formerly Statement ASC No. 142 (SFAS 142), Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets). ASC 350 requires that an intangible asset that is acquired either individually or with a group of other assets (but not those acquired in a business combination) shall be initially recognized and measured based on its fair value.  Goodwill acquired in business combinations is initially computed as the amount paid by the acquiring company in excess of the fair value of the net assets acquired.
 
Costs of internally developing, maintaining and restoring intangible assets (including goodwill) that are not specifically identifiable, that have indeterminate lives, or that are inherent in a continuing business and related to an entity as a whole, are recognized as an expense when incurred.
 
An intangible asset (excluding goodwill) with a definite useful life is amortized; an intangible asset with an indefinite useful life is not amortized until its useful life is determined to be no longer indefinite.  The remaining useful lives of intangible assets not being amortized are evaluated at least annually to determine whether events and circumstances continue to support an indefinite useful life.  If and when an intangible asset is determined to no longer have an indefinite useful life, the asset shall then be amortized prospectively over its estimated remaining useful life and accounted for in the same manner as other intangibles that are subject to amortization. 
 
An intangible asset (including goodwill) that is not subject to amortization shall be tested for impairment annually or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the asset might be impaired.  The impairment test consists of a comparison of the fair value of the intangible assets with its carrying amount.  If the carrying amount of an intangible asset exceeds its fair value, an impairment loss shall be recognized in an amount equal to that excess.  In accordance with ASC 350, goodwill is not amortized.
 
It is the Company’s policy to test for impairment no less than annually, or when conditions occur that may indicate impairment. The Company’s intangible assets, which consist of licensing rights valued at $190,000 recorded in connection with the acquisition of the license related to the agreement with Wind Sail Receptor, Inc., were acquired in 2009 and will be tested for impairment in 2011.  The licensing rights were determined to have an indefinite life as of December 31, 2010.
