PART I

Item 1. BUSINESS

The predecessor of Jacobs Financial Group, Inc. (the “Registrant”, “JFG” or the “Company”), NELX, Inc., was incorporated in the State of Kansas in March 1983 as Nelson Exploration, Inc. In October 1993 the Company changed its name to NELX, Inc. On or about December 29, 2005, NELX was merged with and into its newly-formed wholly-owned subsidiary, JFG, a Delaware corporation. JFG survived the merger as the Registrant. The merger effected a change in the Registrant’s name, a change in the state of incorporation of the Registrant from Kansas to Delaware, and amendments to the Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws of the Registrant. The Company holds four wholly owned subsidiaries, FS Investments, Inc. (“FSI”), Jacobs & Company (“Jacobs & Co.”), First Surety Corporation (“FSC”) and Crystal Mountain Spring Water, Inc. (“CMW”).

FSI, incorporated in 1997 in West Virginia, is a holding company that was organized to develop surety business through the formation or acquisition of subsidiaries engaged in the issuance of surety bonds collateralized by investment accounts that are professionally managed by Jacobs & Co. Through its wholly-owned subsidiary, Triangle Surety Agency, Inc. (“Triangle Surety” or “TSA”), FSI is actively engaged in the placement with insurance companies of surety bonds, with an emphasis on clients engaged in regulated industries.

Jacobs & Co., incorporated in 1988 in West Virginia, is a Registered Investment Advisory firm whose executive offices are located in Charleston, West Virginia. Jacobs & Co. provides fee based investment advisory services to institutions, companies and individuals. In June 2001, the Jacobs & Company Mutual Fund (the “Fund”) was organized as a series of the Advisors Series Trust. On June 27, 2005, the Fund was reorganized as a series of Northern Lights Fund Trust. The Fund’s assets were liquidated in November 2009 and distribution of proceeds to the Fund’s shareholders was made on December 1, 2009.

On December 31, 2005 the Company acquired the former West Virginia Fire and Casualty Company (WVFC), subsequently renamed First Surety Corporation (FSC), from The Celina Mutual Insurance Company (Celina). The acquisition consisted of the purchase of marketable investments and insurance licenses and did not include any existing policies or customer base as the insurance lines being offered by WVFC were not lines that new ownership intended to pursue. FSC is a West Virginia domiciled property and casualty company with licenses (multi-line) in West Virginia, Indiana and Ohio, targeting primarily coal and oil & gas industry surety markets in the Eastern United States. In 2006, the Company was licensed for the surety line of business in West Virginia. In 2008, the Company’s license for surety was expanded to include Ohio.

CMW has an undeveloped leasehold interest in a mineral water spring located near Hot Springs, Arkansas.

The Company is headquartered in Charleston, West Virginia, and through its wholly-owned subsidiaries, employs a total of nine (9) full-time employees.

Item 1A.

RISK FACTORS

As the Registrant qualifies as a small reporting company as defined by §229.10(f)(1) of Regulation S-K, the Registrant is not required to provide the information required by this item.

Item 2.

PROPERTIES

Through its wholly-owned subsidiary, CMW, the Company has an undeveloped leasehold interest in a mineral water spring located near Hot Springs, Arkansas. Under this leasehold arrangement, CMW is obligated for minimum lease payments in the amount of approximately $180 per month with automatic options to extend the leasehold through October 2026. CMW has the right to cancel the lease upon sixty (60) days written notice at any time. The property is presently not being actively explored or developed. During the 2002 fiscal year, management evaluated the lease and determined the development was not currently feasible. Accordingly, the Company recorded an impairment of $116,661 to its investment in the lease. Opportunities will continue to be explored as they arise with respect to the development or sale of the leasehold interest. The stock of CMW has been pledged to a group of lenders as collateral (See Item 7 “Bridge-financing, Commitments and Material Agreements”).

Item 3.

LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

In May 2015, an investor and lender to the Company brought action seeking payment of a Promissory Note. The Company does not deny the claim and the matter has been continued while the Company negotiates terms with the lender. The principal and interest related to this claim are fully accrued in the financials of the Company.

In December 2015, a lessor to the Company brought action seeking payment of defaulted lease payments and termination of lease. The matter was reduced to a judgement lien and will be paid from operations with no material effect on the Company. The lease payments are fully accrued in the financials of the Company.

Item 4.

SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS

Since the last annual meeting in December 2005, two new members were appointed to the Company’s board of directors in July 2009, Mario J. Marra and Bradley W. Tuckwiller. The appointed directors will serve until the next called meeting of shareholders.

Item 6. SELECTED FINANCIAL DATA

As the Registrant qualifies as a small reporting company as defined by §229.10(f)(1) of Regulation S-K, the Registrant is not required to provide the information required by this item.

Item 7. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

During fiscal 2015, the Company has focused its primary efforts on the development and marketing of its surety business in West Virginia and Ohio, securing potential strategic relationships that will accelerate the progression of the Company’s business plan and raising additional capital to increase the capital base of its insurance subsidiary, First Surety Corporation (FSC), to facilitate entry into other state markets.

Results of Operations and Financial Condition as of and for the Year Ended May 31, 2015

Results of Operations

Total revenues increased from $1,270,000 in fiscal 2014 to $1,576,000 in fiscal 2015, while total operating expenses increased from $1,702,000 in fiscal 2014 to $3,080,000 in fiscal 2015. This resulted in a net loss from operations of $1,505,000 in 2015 as compared with a net loss from operations of $432,000 in fiscal 2014.

The increase in revenues is largely attributable to realized losses of $45,000 in 2014 compared to realized gains of $136,000 in 2015 on the sale of investments. Insurance premiums and commissions increased by approximately $163,000 due to an increase in premium written for new and existing customers. In addition, net investment income increased due to increased dividends on equity investments as well as increased interest earned on mortgage backed investments.

The increase in expenses is mainly attributable to strengthening the reserve for incurred but not reported policy losses by approximately $800,000 that was recommended as a result of an examination by the West Virginia Insurance Commissioner. Also, increased legal, professional, and accounting costs in 2015, as well as the increase in insurance policy costs associated with increased insurance premium recorded in 2015. In addition, the Company wrote off accounts receivable of approximately $300,000 as uncollectible during 2015.

Interest expense decreased from $944,000 in fiscal 2014 to $833,000 in fiscal 2015, as a result of the discontinuation of the semi-annual bridge issuance after September 10, 2014 and the deferral of the issuance of stock as part of the 2% dividend on Series A and B Preferred shares that have requested to be redeemed. In addition, there was a decrease in the market value of common stock used to calculate the price of shares issued as incentive for lending in the year ended 2015, despite an increase in the amount of borrowings in 2015 and the interest associated with those borrowings, most of which did not have shares issued as incentive for lending.

In the years ending May 31, 2015 the Company recorded gains on extinguishment of debt in the amount of $1,257,536 on forgiven interest on notes payables as part of the purchase of a majority interest in the bridge loans and the payoff of other notes payables.

Capital Resources and Financial Condition

Mandatorily Redeemable Preferred Stock

In conjunction with the acquisition of FSC at December 31, 2005, a restructuring of the Company’s financing was accomplished through the private placement of 350 shares of Series A Preferred stock and 3,980 shares of Series B Preferred stock, each accompanied by warrants to acquire common stock of the Company in exchange for cash totaling $3,335,000. Of the total funds received, $2,860,000 was used in the acquisition and funding of the insurance subsidiary, with the remaining funds used to pay expenses attributable to the acquisition and the funding of on-going operations. Additionally, approximately $3,668,000 of indebtedness of the Company was converted into preferred stock and warrants reducing the Company’s borrowings under short-term financing arrangements to approximately $167,000 as of December 30, 2005.

The Series A designation was designed for issuance to principals desiring surety bonds under FSC’s partially collateralized bonding programs. As designed, proceeds from the sale of Series A preferred stock is down-streamed to FSC to increase its capital and insurance capacity, although to the extent that proceeds from the sale of Series B preferred shares was used in the initial acquisition and funding of FSC, the Company was allowed to use such proceeds to redeem Series B preferred stock (Company option to redeem) or for funding of on-going operations. Effective June 1, 2007, the Company agreed to the requirement of the West Virginia Insurance Department to downstream all future proceeds from sales of Series A preferred stock in order to increase capital and reserves of the insurance subsidiary to more substantial levels.

The Series A designation contains a conditional redemption feature providing for the redemption of the Series A shares at any time after the seventh (7^th) anniversary of the issue date, provided that the principal no longer requires surety bonds issued by FSC. Surety bonds currently being issued by FSC are primarily for coal mining and reclamation permits, which are long-term in nature and continually evolving whereby outstanding bonds are periodically released as properties are mined and reclaimed and new bonds issued for properties to be mined in the future. Accordingly, this source of financing was designed to be long-term by nature.

The Company’s outstanding Series A Preferred stock matures on the seventh anniversary of the issuance date and thereafter holders of the Series A Stock are eligible to request that the Company redeem their Series A Shares. As of May 31, 2015, the Company has received requests for redemption of 1,020 shares of Series A Preferred. The aggregate amount to which the holders requesting redemption are entitled as of June 30, 2015, is $1,467,701.

Subsidiary, then the redemption shall occur on the Redemption Date. If, however, the Board determines either that there are not sufficient funds legally available to accomplish the redemption or that the use of such funds to effect the redemption will result in an impairment of the operations of the Insurance Subsidiary, then (X) the Company shall notify the holders of shares that would otherwise have been redeemed of such fact and the consequences as provided in this paragraph, (Y) the Company will use those funds which are legally available therefor and which would not result in an impairment of the operations of the Insurance Subsidiary to redeem the maximum possible number of shares of Series A Stock for which Redemption Notices have been received ratably among the holders of such shares to be redeemed based upon their holdings of such shares, and (Z) thereafter, until such shares are redeemed in full, the dividends accruing and payable on such shares of Series A Stock to be redeemed shall be increased by 2% of the Series A Face Amount, with the amount of such increase (i.e., 2% of the Series A Face Amount) to be satisfied by distributions on each Dividend Payment Date of shares of Common Stock having a value (determined by reference to the average closing price of such Common Stock over the preceding 20 trading days) equal to the amount of such increase. The shares of Series A Stock not redeemed shall remain outstanding and entitled to all the rights and preferences provided herein. At any time thereafter when additional funds of the Company are legally available for the redemption of shares of Series A Stock and such redemption will not result in an impairment of operations of the Insurance Subsidiary, such funds will immediately be used to redeem the balance of the shares of Series A Stock to be redeemed. No dividends or other distributions shall be declared or paid on, nor shall the Company redeem, purchase or acquire any shares of, the Common Stock or any other class or series of Junior Securities or Equal Ranking Preferred of the Company unless the Redemption Price per share of all shares for which Redemption Notices have been given shall have been paid in full, provided that the redemption price of any Equal Ranking Preferred subject to redemption shall be paid on a pari passu basis with the Redemption Price of the Series A Stock subject to redemption in accordance herewith. Until the Redemption Price for each share of Series A Stock elected to be redeemed shall have been paid in full, such share of Series A Stock shall remain outstanding for all purposes and entitle the holder thereof to all the rights and privileges provided herein, and Dividends shall continue to accrue and, if unpaid prior to the date such shares are redeemed, shall be included as part of the Redemption Price.

On April 4, 2013, the Company’s Board of Directors determined based on the criteria established under the terms of the Preferred Stocks that there were insufficient funds available for the redemption of Preferred Stocks.

The Series B designation was designed for issuance to investors in JFG and contains both conversion rights to common stock and redemption features. Each share of the Series B preferred stock is convertible, at the option of the holder, into 1,000 shares of JFG common stock and can be converted at any time. The Series B preferred shares were issued at a twenty-five percent (25%) discount to the stated face value of $1,000 per share or approximately $2,217,650 in total. Additional shares of the Series B were subsequently sold at a discount of approximately four and one-half percent (4.5%) or approximately $36,000. Additionally, the Series B preferred stock can be redeemed, at the option of the holder, at full-face value plus accrued and unpaid cumulative dividends, commencing with the fifth (5^th) anniversary of the original issue date. The Company has the option to redeem the Series B preferred shares at any time after the first (1^st) anniversary

of the original issue date, subject to the holder choosing to exercise conversion privileges prior to the stated redemption date.

The Company’s outstanding Series B Preferred stock matured on December 30, 2010, meaning that the holders of the Series B Stock became entitled to request that the Company redeem their Series B Shares. As of May 31, 2015, the Company has received requests for redemption of 2,219 shares of Series B Preferred. The aggregate redemption amount to which the holders are entitled as of June 30, 2015, is $4,710,205.

Under the terms of the Series B Preferred Stock, receipt of a redemption request required the Company’s Board to make a good faith determination regarding (A) whether the funds of the Company legally available for redemption of shares of Series B Stock are sufficient to redeem the total number of shares of Series B Stock to be redeemed on such date and (B) whether the amounts otherwise legally available for redemption would, if used to effect the redemption, not result in an impairment of the operations of the Insurance Subsidiary. If the Board determines that there is a sufficiency of legally available funds to accomplish the redemption and that the use of such funds to affect the redemption will not result in an impairment of the operations of the Insurance Subsidiary, then the redemption shall occur on the Redemption Date. If, however, the Board determines either that there are not sufficient funds legally available to accomplish the redemption or that the use of such funds to effect the redemption will result in an impairment of the operations of the Insurance Subsidiary, then (X) the Company shall notify the holders of shares that would otherwise have been redeemed of such fact and the consequences as provided in this paragraph, (Y) the Company will use those funds which are legally available therefor and which would not result in an impairment of the operations of the Insurance Subsidiary to redeem the maximum possible number of shares of Series B Stock for which Redemption Notices have been received ratably among the holders of such shares to be redeemed based upon their holdings of such shares, and (Z) thereafter, until such shares are redeemed in full, the dividends accruing and payable on such shares of Series B Stock to be redeemed shall be increased by 2% of the Series B Face Amount, with the amount of such increase (i.e., 2% of the Series B Face Amount) to be satisfied by distributions on each Dividend Payment Date of shares of Common Stock having a value (determined by reference to the average closing price of such Common Stock over the preceding 20 trading days) equal to the amount of such increase. The shares of Series B Stock not redeemed shall remain outstanding and entitled to all the rights and preferences provided herein. At any time thereafter when additional funds of the Company are legally available for the redemption of shares of Series B Stock and such redemption will not result in an impairment of operations of the Insurance Subsidiary, such funds will immediately be used to redeem the balance of the shares of Series B Stock to be redeemed. No dividends or other distributions shall be declared or paid on, nor shall the Company redeem, purchase or acquire any shares of, the Common Stock or any other class or series of Junior Securities or Equal Ranking Preferred of the Company unless the Redemption Price per share of all shares for which Redemption Notices have been given shall have been paid in full, provided that the redemption price of any Equal Ranking Preferred subject to redemption shall be paid on a pari passu basis with the Redemption Price of the Series B Stock subject of redemption in accordance herewith. Until the Redemption Price for each share of Series B Stock elected to be redeemed shall have been paid in full, such share of Series B Stock shall remain outstanding for all purposes and entitle the holder thereof to all the rights and privileges

provided herein, and Dividends shall continue to accrue and, if unpaid prior to the date such shares are redeemed, shall be included as part of the Redemption Price.

On March 8, 2011, the Company’s Board of Directors determined, based on the criteria established under the terms of the Series B Preferred Stock, that there were insufficient funds available for the redemption of Series B Preferred Stock.

As an inducement to the initial preferred stock shareholders, warrants to purchase 45,402,996 shares of common stock at an exercise price of one-tenth of one cent ($.001) per share were issued. Warrants issued to Series A Preferred holders had a seven year expiration; warrants issued to Series B Preferred holders had a five-year expiration period. Such warrants were valued at approximately $533,000 using the Black-Scholes pricing model. 386,667 warrants issued in connection with Series B Preferred Stock expired unexercised on December 31, 2010, while 600,000 warrants issued in connection with Series A Preferred Stock expired unexercised on December 31, 2012.

Equity Preferred Stock

In November 2009, as a means of alleviating obligations associated with the Company's Series B Preferred Stock, which by its terms matured at the end of 2010, management proposed a recapitalization to assist in stabilizing the financial position of the Company. The Board deemed it advisable to designate a Series C Preferred Stock, with 10,000 authorized shares. The Recapitalization consisted of the exchange of 6,805 Series B Shares Preferred for a combination of Series C Preferred Shares and Common Stock Shares. For each Series B Preferred Share, the participating holder received (i) one Series C Preferred Share and (ii) 2,000 shares of JFG Common Stock. The accumulated dividend rights and preferences associated with the Series B Preferred Shares transferred undiminished to the corresponding Series C Preferred Shares. This exchange amounted to $6,269,051 of carrying value of Series B Preferred stock being exchanged for Series C Preferred and Common Stock. 13,609,872 shares of Common Stock were issued to the Series C Preferred Stock holders at the rate of 2,000 Common shares for each exchanged Series B Preferred Stock, with the related cost associated with the Common issuance offsetting the Series C Preferred carrying value by $265,120. The shares were valued at approximately $.01948 per share based on the average quoted closing price of the Company's stock for the 20-day period preceding the date of the transaction. Series C Preferred stock may be redeemed by the Company but does not have a fixed maturity date and is considered permanent equity. Holders of over 70% of the outstanding Series B Preferred Shares elected to participate in the recapitalization.

Unlike the Series B Preferred Shares with their fixed maturity date, the Series C Preferred Shares are permanent equity, with accruing dividends only increasing the preference amount that must be satisfied before junior securities may participate in dividends or on liquidation. Accordingly, the effect of the accrual of dividends with respect to the Series C Preferred Shares on the Company’s balance sheet is to increase the aggregate claim by the Series C Preferred Shares on the equity of the corporation and to increase the deficit in common equity, while having no effect on the net equity of the corporation as a whole. The entitlement of the Series C Preferred Shares to a priority

in relation to junior securities with respect to dividends and on liquidation does not create an obligation by the Company and therefore no liability is recorded until the dividends are declared by the Board of the Company. The Series C Preferred Shares are pari passu with the Series A Preferred Shares and Series B Preferred Shares and no dividends or other distributions will be paid upon Common Shares or any other class of Shares that is junior in priority to the Series C Preferred Shares while dividends are in arrears.

The accrual of dividends on the equity preferred stock resulted in a charge to common stockholders’ equity and a credit to the equity of equity preferred stock of $1,072,461 in fiscal 2015 as compared to $990,788 in fiscal 2014.

Dividend Preference and Accretion

During the year ended May 31, 2012, two holders of Series A Preferred stock released all of their outstanding bonds held with FSC. The carrying value of these shares of Series A Preferred Shareholders are listed in the liability section of the balance sheet, and therefore the dividends associated with these shares of Series A Preferred stock after February 29, 2012 is a deduction from net income. The carrying value of the Series B Preferred Shares that did not convert are listed in the liabilities section of the balance sheet, and therefore the accretion and dividends associated with the Series B Preferred stock after November 30, 2009 are deductions from net income. Series C Preferred stock has no accretion. The recorded values of the Series A preferred stock was increased to their stated liquidation values using the interest method over a period of five years and such amounts were categorized as accretion of mandatorily redeemable preferred stock in the consolidated statement of operations. This accretion was concluded in December 2010.

The Series A Preferred designation is entitled to receive cumulative dividends at the rate of 4.00% per annum and the Series B Preferred and Series C Preferred designations are entitled to receive cumulative dividends at the rate of 8.00% per annum, with the Series A, B and C Preferred designations having equal ranking and preference as to dividends, liquidation rights and priority to the Company’s common stockholders. The accrued (but undeclared) dividends associated with the Series C Preferred exchange amounted to $2,295,624 and are included in the total amount exchanged for Series C Preferred Shares.

At this time, management has chosen to defer payment of dividends to the holders of the Series A, B and C Preferred Shares until the Company has sufficient cash flow from operations to service the obligation.

Bridge-financing, Commitments and Material Agreements

Of primary importance to the Company's ability to fully implement its business plan is the expansion of that business into additional states. Regulatory approval and licensing is required for each state where FSC seeks to conduct business. Management found entry into additional states (as a surety) was proving difficult without the benefit of more substantial capital and reserves due to FSC's status as a recent entry into this market. Accordingly, management began pursuing avenues that would provide additional capital to facilitate such expansion.

Beginning in fiscal 2008 and completed during the first quarter of fiscal 2009, the Company obtained two rounds of bridge financing totaling an aggregate of $3,500,000. The purpose of the financing was to pay expenses of operations and to pay fees and expenses incurred or expected to be incurred in connection with a larger permanent financing and, in addition, to increase the capital surplus of FSC to make possible the reactivation of FSC’s surety license in the state of Ohio. The terms of the bridge-financing arrangement provide for payment in full upon consummation by the Company of a qualified equity offering providing net proceeds of at least $15 million on or before September 10, 2013; and because such a qualified equity offering was not consummated by September 10, 2008, accrued interest-to-date was payable, and quarterly installments of principal and interest became payable over five years commencing in December 2008. The interest rates on such notes were fixed at 10.00%. Payments due December 2008 and March 2009 were not made by the Company as scheduled, but a forbearance agreement was subsequently entered into with the bridge lenders on June 5, 2009, modifying payment terms to cure the default (including increasing the interest rate on the loans to 17%), issuing additional common stock to the loan holders, and pledging the stock of the Company’s subsidiary, CMW, as security for repayment of the loans. The modification required the Company to pay interest of $224,515 on June 10, 2009 and increase the quarterly payments by $67,185 (to a total of $291,700) for eight consecutive quarters beginning September 10, 2009 to satisfy the arrearage. Although the Company has failed to make the payment that was due September 10, 2009 and the payments that were due in the ensuing quarters, management has remained in close contact with the bridge lenders, providing reports regarding its efforts to refinance or otherwise repay the bridge loans. As of September 30, 2014, none of the bridge lenders had elected to pursue legal remedies.

Certain equity inducements in the form of common stock of the Company were provided under the terms of the bridge loan documents. Upon issuance of the bridge notes, an aggregate of 7% of the outstanding common stock of the Company was issued to the bridge lenders. Upon retirement of the notes upon consummation of a qualified equity offering, the Company will issue to the bridge lenders a percentage of the outstanding common stock of the Company which, when added to the stock initially issued, may equal as much as 28% of the common stock of the Company that would otherwise have been retained by the holders of the Company’s common shares immediately prior to the financing. Finally, because a qualified financing was not completed by September 10, 2008, the Company was required to issue to the bridge lenders under the terms of the loan documents a total of 2.8% of the Company’s outstanding common shares at such date. An additional 2.8% of the Company’s outstanding common shares are required to be issued upon each six-month anniversary date thereof until retirement of the notes.

In anticipation of a proposed financing and as a condition thereof, the Company and each of the bridge lenders entered into a Loan Modification Agreement dated February 25, 2012 which provided for modification of the Promissory Notes, including an extension of the term of the Promissory Notes, and Subscription Agreements in exchange for a partial cash payment to each bridge lender. As of September 30, 2014, the proposed financing has not closed, and the Company has been unable to remit the partial payment. On August 10, 2012, the Company entered into an agreement with the bridge lenders, pursuant to which the bridge lenders formally agreed to forbear from exercising their rights and remedies arising from the accumulated acknowledged events of default with respect to the bridge loans until such date. As consideration for this forbearance, the Company entered into an Amended and Restated General Hypothecation and Pledge Agreement

dated August 9, 2012 (the “August 2012 Pledge”), but effective September 23, 2011, granting to the bridge lenders as security for the repayment of the loans a lien and security interest in all of the Company’s shares of capital stock of First Surety Corporation. Under the August 2012 Pledge, the bridge lenders acknowledge that the effectiveness of certain of the rights and remedies provided by such agreement may be subject to prior approval by the Office of the Commissioner of Insurance for the State of West Virginia.

On July 9, 2014 the Company completed a $4,500,000 financing. In effect, a subsidiary of Registrant borrowed the funds at 8.00% interest with principal repayments on a ten year schedule. Proceeds of the borrowing were applied (i) to purchase from certain bridge lenders, after waiving interest of approximately $1.6 million, 50.7% ($1.775 million face amount) of the outstanding senior promissory notes comprising a $3.5 million financing dating from 2008, together with the associated collateral, (ii) to pay in full delinquent tax liabilities owed to the Internal Revenue Service and State of West Virginia, (iii) to pay an outstanding judgment, and (iv) to pay certain other current liabilities. FSI therefore became a member of the Bridge Loan and notified the Collateral Agent for the group of its purchase and majority holding. The transaction restored control of FSC to the Company and improved its balance sheet.

Restrictions on Use of Assets

Regulatory approval for the acquisition of FSC by JFG was provided by a Consent Order issued December 23, 2005 by the Commissioner of Insurance of the State of West Virginia and imposed several conditions for the operation of FSC, including the condition that no dividends or monies were to be paid to JFG without regulatory approval. This consent order was terminated on March 26, 2012 and dividends in the amounts of $173,000 and $198,000 were paid during the years ended May 31, 2015 and May 31, 2014, respectively. For further information, see Notes C and O to the Consolidated Financial Statements.

Accordingly, the payment of ordinary dividends is no longer restricted but cash, marketable investments, and other receivables held by FSC are restricted from the Company’s use to fund operations or meet cash needs outside of the insurance company’s domain. As of May 31, 2015, such assets amounted to approximately $10.10 million.

Under the West Virginia insurance code, ordinary dividends to stockholders are allowed to be paid only from that part of FSC’s available surplus funds which is comprised of realized net profits from the business and whereby all such dividends or distributions made within the preceding twelve months do not exceed 1) the lesser of 10% of FSC’s surplus as regards to policyholders as of December 31^st of the preceding year-end or 2) net income from FSC’s operations from the previous two calendar years, not including capital gains. Any payment of extraordinary dividends requires prior approval from the WV state insurance commissioner.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Investments

Management believes the Company has the ability to hold all fixed income securities to maturity. However, the Company determined it may dispose of securities prior to their scheduled maturity due to changes in interest rates, prepayments, tax and credit considerations, liquidity or regulatory capital requirements, or other similar factors. As a result, the Company classifies all of its fixed income securities (bonds) and equity securities as available-for-sale. These securities are reported at fair value, with unrealized gains and losses, net of deferred income taxes, reported in stockholders’ equity as a separate component of accumulated other comprehensive income.

Insurance Premiums

Insurance premiums are recognized as revenue ratably over the term of the related policies in proportion to the insurance protection provided. Premium revenues are net of amounts ceded to reinsurers. Unearned premiums represent the portion of premiums written, before ceded reinsurance which is shown as an asset, applicable to the unexpired terms of policies in force determined on a pro rata basis.

Insurance premium receivables are presented net of an estimated allowance for doubtful accounts, which is based on a periodic evaluation of the aging and collectability of premium receivables.

Reinsurance

The Company limits the maximum net loss that can arise from large risks by reinsuring (ceding) certain levels of such risk with reinsurers. Effective April 1, 2009, FSC entered into a reinsurance agreement with Lloyd’s of London for its coal reclamation surety bonding programs. This agreement has provided additional bonding capacity to FSC and has enabled FSC to write more bonds and of greater size for its coal reclamation bonding clients. Management expects this reinsurance arrangement to continue FSC’s expansion of market share and to result in increased cash flow for each of the Company’s operating subsidiaries.

Ceded reinsurance is treated as the risk and liability of the assuming companies. The Company cedes insurance to other companies but these reinsurance contracts do not relieve the Company from its obligations to policyholders. Ceded premiums, at a rate of 35% of written premium with a minimum of $490,000, are recognized as reductions in revenue ratably over the term of the related policies. Ceded unearned premiums represent the portion of ceded premiums written applicable to the unexpired terms of policies in force determined on a pro rata basis.

Under the terms of its reinsurance treaty, the Company is entitled to a No Claims Bonus from the reinsurers for each contract year in which no claims are received. The bonus is 20% of the contract year reinsurance premium. No claims had been made since the inception of the treaty until February 2014 when a performance bond claim of approximately $83,000 was paid during the year ended May 31, 2014. Prior to 2014, FSC has experienced no claims for losses since its acquisition.

Deferred Policy Acquisition Costs

Policy acquisition costs, consisting of commissions, premium taxes and other underwriting expenses which vary with, and are primarily related to, the production of business, are deferred and amortized as a charge to income as the related premiums are earned. The Company periodically tests that deferred policy acquisition costs are recoverable based on the expected profitability embedded in the reserve for unearned premium. If the expected profitability is less than the balance of deferred policy acquisition costs, a charge to income is taken and the deferred policy acquisition cost balance is reduced to the amount determined to be recoverable. Anticipated investment income is considered in the determination of the recoverability of deferred policy acquisition costs.

Intangible Assets

In exchange for the purchase price of $2.9 million for the acquisition of FSC, the Company received cash and investments held by FSC totaling $2.75 million, with the difference being attributed to the property and casualty licenses of FSC in the states of West Virginia, Ohio and Indiana. Such licenses have indefinite lives and are evaluated annually for recoverability and impairment loss. Impairment loss, if any, is measured by estimating future cash flows attributable to such assets based on forecasts and projections and comparing such discounted cash flow amounts to the carrying value of the asset. Should actual results differ from such forecasts and projections, such assets may be subject to future impairment charges.

Reserve for Losses and Loss Expenses

Reserves for unpaid losses and loss adjustment expenses of the insurance subsidiary are estimated using information derived from Company experience in addition to management’s estimate of expected future claims on those policies in force. Management’s estimate considers relevant industry information but is largely dependent upon management’s experience and judgment since prior Company experience and industry data available are extremely limited. In February, 2014, a performance bond obligee notified FSC of a claim under the bond relating to a non-performance by the principal. The total claim of approximately $83,000 was paid during the year ended May 31, 2014. Prior to 2014, FSC had experienced no claims for losses since its acquisition.

FSC is currently licensed to write coal permit and miscellaneous fixed-liability limit surety bonds in West Virginia and Ohio. Coal permit bonds are required by regulatory agencies to assure the reclamation of land that has been disturbed by mining operations, and accordingly, is a highly regulated process by federal and state agencies. Such bonds are generally long-term in nature with mining operations and reclamation work being conducted in unison as the property is mined. Additionally, no two principals and properties are alike due to varied company structures and unique geography and geology of each site.

In underwriting coal reclamation bonds, management obtains estimates of costs to reclaim the properties in accordance with the specifications of the mining permit, prepared by independent outside professionals experienced in this field of work. Such estimates are then periodically updated and compared with marketable securities pledged, and held for the benefit of FSC as

collateral for the surety bond, to mitigate the exposure to significant loss. Should the principal default in its obligation to reclaim the property as specified in the mining permit, FSC would then use the funds held in the collateral account to reclaim the property or forfeit the face amount of the surety bond. Losses can occur if the costs of reclamation exceed the estimates obtained at the time the bond was underwritten or upon subsequent re-evaluations, if sufficient collateral is not obtained, or if the collateral held has experienced significant deterioration in value and if FSC is not otherwise able to recover under its contractual rights to indemnification.

Miscellaneous fixed-liability limit surety bonds are generally fully collateralized by the principal’s cash investment into a collateral investment account to mitigate FSC’s exposure to loss. Generally the collateral investment account is managed by the Company’s investment advisory subsidiary, Jacobs & Co. Losses can occur should the principal default on the performance required by the bond and the collateral in the investment account experiences deterioration in value.

In establishing its reserves for losses and loss adjustment expense, management continually reviews its exposure to loss based on reports provided in conjunction with the periodic monitoring and inspections performed along with industry averages and historical experience. Management has estimated such losses based on management’s experience, adjusted for factors that are unique to the Company’s approach, and in consultation with its consulting actuary experienced in the surety field. As a result of the limited Company and industry data and experience there is a significant risk that amounts reserved for future expected losses and loss adjustment expenses could vary from those amounts reserved and the variance could be material. Adjustments to reserves are reflected in earnings in the period of determination.

Liquidity and Going Concern

The Company experienced operating income (loss) from operations of approximately ($1,505,000) and ($432,000) for the years ended May 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively. The Company’s income (or loss) decreases (or increases) when accretion of mandatorily redeemable convertible preferred stock and accrued dividends on mandatorily redeemable preferred stock are taken into account, to losses of approximately ($1,670,000) and ($1,926,000) for the years ended May 31, 2015 and 2014. The Company has not been able to pay certain amounts due to professionals and others and continues to be unable to pay its preferred stock dividend obligation or cure its defaults in certain quarterly payments due its bridge-financing lenders. Due to this inability to pay professional fees, the financial audits and subsequent required filings for the fiscal years ended May 31, 2014, 2015, and 2016 were not completed or filed in a timely manner. A substantial portion of the Company’s cash flow is generated by its insurance subsidiary and is subject to certain withdrawal restrictions and regulatory restrictions including the ability to pay dividends to its parent. While management expects revenue growth and cash flow to increase significantly as its business plan is fully implemented, it is anticipated that losses will continue and the Company will be cash constrained until FSC is able to develop a substantial book of business.

During calendar years 2016 and 2017, the Company generated enough cash flows to secure the services of independent auditors and all filings that are past due are to be expedited and filed during 2017.

Expansion of FSC’s business to other states is a key component to fully implementing the Company’s business plan. In fiscal 2009, the Company was able to increase the capital of FSC and reactivate FSC’s insurance license in Ohio and obtain authority to issue surety bonds in that state. However, management has found that entry into other states (as a surety) has been difficult without the benefit of more substantial capital and reserves due to FSC’s status as a recent entry into this market and the financial condition of the Company. This is the case notwithstanding the reinsurance agreement by FSC with Lloyd’s of London and the resulting increase in bonding capacity. Management believes that if FSC’s capital and surplus reserves were significantly more substantial and the financial condition of the Company was stabilized, entry into other states would be less challenging. Accordingly, management continues to pursue avenues that can provide additional capital to increase the capacity of its insurance subsidiary and to fund continuing operations as the business is being fully developed. In addition, as an alternative means of addressing access to markets, management is seeking to establish a relationship with any one of several possible sureties that are licensed in those states other than West Virginia and Ohio that comprise significant markets for the bonding programs of FSC and could issue surety bonds that are underwritten and reinsured by FSC. Under such a “fronting” arrangement, the need for additional capital at the level of FSC to facilitate entry to other state markets would become secondary, since the payment of a fronting fee to the insurance company with active licenses would provide access to the state market without formal entry.

Through the sharing of resources (primarily personnel) to minimize operating costs, the Company and its subsidiaries attempt to minimize operating expenses and preserve resources. Although FSC is now cash flow positive, the use of its assets and profits are restricted to its stand-alone operation by regulatory authority. While growth of the FSC business continues to provide additional revenue opportunities to the Company’s other subsidiaries, Jacobs & Company and Triangle Surety, it is anticipated that working capital deficiencies will continue to be met either through the raising of additional capital or borrowings. However, there can be no assurance that additional capital (or debt financing) will be available when and to the extent required or, if available, on terms acceptable to the Company. Accordingly, there is substantial doubt as to the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Comparison of Results of Operations for Fiscal 2015 With 2014

The Company experienced a loss from operations of approximately ($1,505,000) in 2015 as compared with loss from operations of ($432,000) in fiscal 2014. The net loss attributable to common stockholders was ($2,742,048) in fiscal 2015 as compared to ($2,916,311) in fiscal 2014.

Revenues

Revenues increased 24% in fiscal 2015, $1,575,620 as compared with $1,269,906 in fiscal 2014. The increase is largely attributable to sale of investments from realized losses of ($45,000) in 2014 compared to realized gains of $136,000 in 2015, improvement in investment income and the increase in insurance premiums in 2015.

Revenue from the investment management segment, net of advisory referral fees, declined 21% with fiscal 2015 reporting $121,514 as compared to $153,635 in fiscal 2014, a decrease of $32,121. This decline in investment advisory fees related to the decrease in the amount of assets in portfolios under management. Investment advisory fees are based on the market value of assets under management and some fluctuation will occur due to overall market conditions. Generally such revenues will remain relatively constant from year to year with large fluctuations attributable to the growth or loss of assets under management.

Revenue from the surety insurance segment, consisting of FSC and TSA, increased 38%, with $1,434,730 in fiscal 2015 as compared with $1,040,703 for the prior year. Revenues attributable to the insurance segment are as follows:

	Year Ended May 31,
	2015		2014

Premiums earned	$	915,920	$	782,605
Commissions earned		9,483		(20,888	)
No Claims Bonus from Reinsurers		98,000		98,000
Net investment income		274,946		226,192
Net realized investment gains		136,381		(45,206	)

Total	$	1,434,730	$	1,040,703

Premium revenue is recognized ratably over the term of the policy period and thus is relatively stable from period to period with fluctuations for comparable periods generally reflecting the overall growth or loss of business. Commission revenue, which is dependent on the timing of issuance or renewal of bonds, is expected to be more seasonal from quarter-to-quarter with fluctuations for comparable periods largely reflecting the overall growth or loss of business. The decline in commissions earned in 2014 is due to a write off of commissions receivable from a client that were deemed uncollectible and covered several years of activity. Investment income is expected to remain relatively consistent from period to period, but can fluctuate based on interest rates, market conditions, growth or loss of business, and investment funds expended in the payment of claims.

The increase in revenues reflected above is mainly attributable to realized losses of ($45,000) in 2014 compared to realized gains of $136,000 in 2015 on the sale of investments as well as the commissions written off during 2014 as previously discussed. Gross premium written in fiscal 2015 amounted to $1,382,725 as compared to $1,230,079 in fiscal 2014 and is reflective of an increase in the volume of bonds required for new and existing clients. Commission income earned for the placement of bonds with outside insurers has remained relatively stagnant.

FSC’s investment holdings in fiscal 2015 averaged $9.860 million as compared to $8.862 million for fiscal 2014, with investment yields relatively flat, from 2.65% to 2.66%. The ultimate effect of zero coupon bonds will be reflected over the life of the bond through accretion rather than yield.

During the period, equity securities in the portfolio provided dividends and gains from the covered call strategy utilized on the equities.

Expenses

Incurred policy losses represent the provision for loss and loss adjustment expense for “incurred but not reported” (IBNR) losses attributable to surety bonds issued by FSC. Due to overall concern for the coal industry brought about by substantial pricing competition from natural gas and resultant bankruptcies of publicly traded coal companies, the Company has agreed with its actuary and regulators to increase FSC’s reserves by recording $968,017 as IBNR for fiscal 2015, or 106% of earned premium, as compared to $161,181 or 21% of earned premium for fiscal 2014, strengthening its reserves by a net of approximately $800,000. As of January 1, 2014 of the IBNR reserve rate was reduced from 15% to 12% of earned premium for partially collateralized bonds. IBNR loss estimates have been based on management’s judgment that are unique to the FSC’s underwriting approach. Prior to 2014, FSC had not received any claims for losses on any bonds underwritten since business began in 2006, therefore its actuary has adjusted the percentage of premiums reserved for IBNR due to this historical pattern.

Insurance policy acquisition costs represent charges to operations for underwriting, commissions and premium tax attributable to surety polices issued by FSC and are recognized ratably over the period in which premiums are earned. In fiscal 2015, such costs amounted to $298,756 or 33% of earned premium as compared with $260,668 or 33% in fiscal 2014.

General and administrative expenses for fiscal 2015 were $1,809,121 as compared with $1,272,818 for fiscal 2014, representing an increase of $536,303 and are comprised of the following:

	Year Ended May 31,
	2015		2014		Difference

Salaries and related costs	$	642,777	$	613,526	$	29,251
General office expense		114,476		101,938		12,538
Legal and other professional fees		350,665		109,584		241,081
Audit, accounting and related services		169,137		82,163		86,974
Travel, meals and entertainment		82,964		48,695		34,269
Other general and administrative		449,102		316,912		132,190

Total general and administrative	$	1,809,121	$	1,272,818	$	536,303

Salaries and related costs, net of deferred internal policy acquisition costs, decreased $29,251 and are comprised of the following:

	Year Ended May 31,
	2015			2014			Difference
Salaries and wages	$	563,023		$	497,023		$	66,959
Commissions		36,600			120,707			(84,107	)
Payroll taxes		44,375			46,173			3,202
Fringe benefits		81,750			112,575			(30,825	)
Key-man life insurance		63,088			58,868			4,220
Deferred policy acquisition costs		(152,820	)		(221,820	)		69,802

Total salaries and related costs	$	642,777		$	613,526		$	29,251

The increase in salaries is due to the hiring of additional employees in 2015. The decrease in commissions is partially attributable to FSC’s commission structure that pays a larger commission percentage on the origination of a policy but reduced for subsequent policy, as well as to the timing of payment of commissions based upon collections. The decrease in fringe benefits is attributable to decreased cost of health insurance for employees after changing insurance providers.

Legal and professional fees increased compared to the prior year as well as costs related to travel and meals expense, due to the Company’s above normal efforts and related expenses to expand the Company’s business and penetrate new markets. The Company reclassified an $80,000 deposit from prior years as legal expense for work on a financing arrangement that was not completed. In addition, the Company was subject to a client of the insurance subsidiary for which the Company has filed counterclaims and plans to defend and pursue vigorously. Overall decreases are offset by increases in general corporate services, resulting primarily from increased legal and consulting expenses affecting the insurance subsidiary. Audit, accounting and related services increased due to a change in accounting and audit service provider for FSC as well as for the Company, which resulted in a delay of expenses for most of 2014.

Other general and administrative expense increased approximately $132,000 compared to the corresponding 2014 period. This increase is due to the writing off of approximately $300,000 in accounts receivable as uncollectible, offset somewhat by the recording of significant penalties during 2014 for unpaid payroll taxes and a one-time penalty assessed by the WVIC for an improper dividend paid by the subsidiary to the parent.

Interest expense and interest income

Interest expense for fiscal 2015 was $833,242 compared to $944,180 in fiscal 2014. Components of interest expense are comprised of the following:

	Year Ended May 31,
	2015		2014		Difference

Interest expense on bridge financing	$	319,705	$	595,000	$	(275,295	)
Expense of common shares issued or to be issued in connection with bridge financing and other arrangements		29,174		161,304		(132,130	)
Interest expense on demand and term notes		426,577		170,116		256,461
Other finance charges		57,786		17,760		40,026

Total interest expense	$	833,242	$	944,180	$	(110,938	)

Interest expense decreased from $944,180 in fiscal 2014 to $833,242 in fiscal 2015, attributable to several factors; i) interest expense on bridge financing decreased due to elimination of the portion represented by the Company’s purchase of 50.7% of that debt, ii) discontinuation of the semi-annual bridge issuance after September 10, 2014 and iii) deferral of the issuance of stock as 2% dividend on Series A and B Preferred shares that have requested to be redeemed. Interest expense on demand and term notes increased due to the June 2014 borrowing of $4.5 million at 8.00%. In addition, there was a decrease in the market value of common stock used to calculate the price of shares issued as incentive for lending in the year ended 2015, despite an increase in the amount of borrowings in 2015 and the interest associated with those borrowings, most of which did not have shares issued as incentive for lending.

Preferred Stock Accretion and Dividends

Accretion of mandatorily redeemable convertible preferred stock is comprised of accretion of discount and accrued but unpaid dividends on preferred stock as follows:

	Year Ended May 31,
	2015		2014
Accrued dividends – mandatorily redeemable preferred stock	$	80,970	$	77,811
Accrued dividends – equity preferred stock		1,072,461		990,788

	$	1,153,431	$	1,068,599

The Series B class of stock became treated as a liability effective November 30, 2009 when the majority was exchanged for Series C equity stock. Therefore, for the year ended May 31, 2015, dividends of $445,510 associated with the Series B outstanding after that date are deductions from net income and not included in the table above. For the year ended May 31, 2014, dividends of $411,583 associated with the Series B outstanding after November 30, 2009 are deductions from net income and not included in the table above. During the year ended May 31, 2012, two holders of Series A stock released all of their outstanding bonds held with FSC. Therefore, these shares of Series A Preferred Shareholders are listed in the liability section of the consolidated balance sheet and the dividends after February 29, 2012 associated with these shares are a deduction from

net income in the amounts of $62,649 and $60,204, for the years ended May 31, 2015 and 2014, and not included in the table above. Series C equity stock is not mandatorily redeemable and does not accrete.

Off Balance Sheet Arrangements

The Company does not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on the Company’s financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that is material to investors.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

Board of Directors and Stockholders

Jacobs Financial Group, Inc.

Charleston, West Virginia

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Jacobs Financial Group, Inc. (the “Company”) as of May 31, 2015 and 2014, and the related consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive income (loss), cash flows, and Series A redeemable preferred stock and stockholders' deficit for each of the years then ended. These 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 audit 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 is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits 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 also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides 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 Jacobs Financial Group, Inc. as of May 31, 2015 and 2014, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the years then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note A to the financial statements, the Company has insufficient liquidity and capitalization, and has suffered recurring operating losses. These conditions, among others, 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 A. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

Note A – Organization and Business

Organization and Nature of Business

Jacobs Financial Group, Inc. (the “Company” or “JFG”), formerly NELX, Inc., was incorporated in Kansas on March 25, 1983. In 2001, the Company acquired all the outstanding stock of two corporations located in Charleston, West Virginia: Jacobs & Company (“Jacobs”) and FS Investments, Inc. (“FSI”). Jacobs is a registered investment advisory firm that derives its revenue from asset-based investment advisory fees. FSI, through its wholly-owned subsidiary Triangle Surety Agency, Inc. (“Triangle”), is engaged in the business of placing surety bonds with insurance companies for clients engaged in regulated industries, such as the extraction of coal, oil and gas. FSI receives commission income from the placement of these bonds and is licensed in ten states primarily in the eastern United States. On December 30, 2005, the Company acquired all of the outstanding stock of West Virginia Fire & Casualty Company (“WVFCC”), an insurance company licensed to engage in business in West Virginia, Ohio and Indiana. The acquisition of WVFCC consisted of the purchase of marketable investments and insurance licenses and did not include any existing policies or customer base as the insurance lines of business offered by WVFCC were not insurance lines that the Company intended to pursue. Following the acquisition, the name of WVFCC was changed to First Surety Corporation (“FSC”). FSC receives insurance premium income in connection with the issuance of surety bonds. The Company and its subsidiaries are subject to the business risks inherent in the financial services industry.

Liquidity and Going Concern

These consolidated financial statements are presented on the basis that the Company is a going concern. Going concern contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business over a reasonable length of time. Presently, the Company has insufficient liquidity and capitalization, is in default with respect to certain loan and preferred stock agreements, and has suffered recurring losses from operations. Losses are expected to continue until the Company develops a more substantial book of business. While improvement is anticipated as the Company’s business plan is implemented, other conditions, such as restrictions on the use of FSC’s assets (See Note C), and the Company’s significant deficiency in working capital and stockholders’ equity raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

Management intends to improve cash flow through the implementation of its business plan. Additionally, management continues to seek to raise additional funds for operations through private placements of stock, other long-term or permanent financing, or short-term borrowings. However, the Company cannot be certain that it will be able to continue to obtain adequate funding in order to reasonably predict whether it will be able to continue as a going concern. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Jacobs Financial Group, Inc. and its majority owned subsidiaries, after the elimination of intercompany transactions.

Cash and Short Term Investments

The Company considers all highly liquid instruments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. The Company continually monitors its positions with, and the credit quality of, the financial institutions with which it invests. Included in cash and cash equivalents are restricted amounts held in trust for customers in the form of collateral for the bonding program of FSC.

Use of Estimates

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. Significant areas requiring the use of management estimates are loss reserves, stock options, valuation of investments, and the valuation of deferred tax assets. Actual results inevitably will differ from those estimates, and such differences may be material to the financial statements.

Revenue Recognition

Fees for investment advisory services are based on an agreed percentage of the value of client assets under management and are accrued monthly based on the market value of client assets.

The Company accounts for its surety bond issuances as short duration contracts. Surety premiums are recorded as receivables when due and are earned pro rata over the term of the policies of generally one year, subject to annual renewal. The reserve for unearned premiums represents the portion of premiums written relating to the unexpired terms of coverage. The reserve for unearned premium is determined using the monthly pro rata method. Advance premiums represent renewal premiums paid in advance of the effective renewal date.

Agency commissions for surety bond services are based on a percentage of premiums charged for bonds placed with insurance companies, and are recorded upon issuance or effective renewal date of the bonds. No significant continuing services subsequent to the issuance or renewal of surety bonds are required.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

Policy acquisition costs include costs that vary with and are primarily related to the acquisition of new business. Such costs generally include commissions, underwriting expenses, and premium taxes and are deferred and amortized over the period in which the related premiums are earned. The deferred policy acquisition cost assets are reviewed for recoverability based on the profitability of the underlying surety policy. Investment income is not anticipated in the recoverability of deferred policy acquisition costs.

Investments

Debt securities are designated at purchase as held-to-maturity, trading or available for sale. Held-to-maturity debt securities are carried at amortized cost where the Company has the ability and intent to hold these securities until maturity. Premiums and discounts arising from the purchase of debt securities are treated as yield adjustments over the estimated lives or call date, if applicable.

Debt and equity securities that are bought and held principally for sale in the near future are classified as trading securities and are carried at fair value, with changes in fair value being recorded in current operations.

Debt and equity securities that the Company may not have a positive intent to hold until maturity and not classified as trading, are considered to be available for sale and carried at fair value.

Management has determined it may dispose of securities prior to their scheduled maturity due to changes in interest rates, prepayments, tax and credit considerations, liquidity or regulatory capital requirements, or other similar factors. As a result, the Company classifies all of its fixed income securities (bonds) and equity securities as available-for-sale. These securities are reported at fair value, with unrealized gains and losses, net of deferred income taxes, reported in stockholders’ equity as a separate component of accumulated other comprehensive income.

An investment is considered impaired when its fair value is less than its cost or amortized cost, as applicable. When an investment is impaired, a determination is made as to whether the impairment is other than temporary (“OTTI”).

Factors considered in identifying OTTI include: 1) for debt securities, whether the Company intends to sell the investment or whether it is more likely than not that the Company will be required to sell the security prior to the anticipated recovery in value; 2) the likelihood of the recoverability of principal and interest for debt securities (i.e., whether there is a credit loss) or cost for equity securities; 3) the length of time and extent to which the fair value has been less than amortized cost for debt securities or carrying value for equity securities; and 4) the financial condition, near-term and long-term prospects for the issuer, including the relevant industry conditions and trends, and implications of rating agency actions and offering prices.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

Short-term investments consist primarily of debt securities having maturities of one year or less at date of purchase, money-market investment funds and other similar investments that have immediate availability.

Interest income with respect to fixed maturity securities is accrued as earned. Dividend income is generally recognized when receivable.

Realized gains and losses are determined by specific identification of the security sold.

Derivatives

The Company uses derivatives in the form of covered call options sold to generate additional income and provide limited downside protection in the event of a market correction.

These transactions expose the Company to potential market risk for which the Company receives a premium up front and the Company realizes the option premium received as income. The market risk relates to the requirement to deliver the underlying security to the purchaser of the call within a definite time at an agreed market price regardless of the then current market price of the security. As a result the Company takes the risk that it may be required to sell the security at the strike price, which could be a price less than the then market price. Should the security decline in market price over the holding period of the call option, the Company can lessen or mitigate the risk of loss with a closing transaction for the covered call and sale of the underlying security.

The Company invests in large capitalized US securities traded on major US exchanges and writes standardized covered calls only against these positions (covered calls), which are openly traded on major US exchanges. The use of such underlying securities and standardized calls lessens the credit risk to the furthest extent possible.

The Company is not exposed to significant cash requirements through the use of covered calls in that it sells a call for a premium and may use these proceeds to enter a closing transaction for the call at a later date.

Allowance for uncollectible premium and other receivables

The majority of the Company’s fee revenue is generated by services provided to companies and individuals throughout the Eastern United States. Management evaluates the need for a reserve for the amount of these receivables that may be uncollectible, based on historical collection activity adjusted for current conditions. Premium and other receivables are charged-off when deemed uncollectible. Based on this evaluation, management believes that most accounts receivable are collectible, and has established an allowance for estimated uncollectible accounts.

Impairment

The Company evaluates long-lived assets for impairment annually, or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the assets may not be recoverable. The impairment is measured by discounting estimated future cash flows expected to be generated, and comparing this amount to the carrying value of the asset. Cash flows are calculated utilizing forecasts and projections and estimated lives of the assets being analyzed. Should actual results differ from those forecasted and projected, The Company may be subject to future impairment charges related to these long-lived assets.

Furniture and Equipment

Furniture and equipment is recorded at cost. Maintenance and repairs are charged to operations when incurred. When property and equipment are sold or disposed of, the asset account and related accumulated depreciation account are relieved, and any gain or loss is included in operations. The cost of property and equipment is depreciated over the estimated useful lives of the related assets, ranging from three to seven years, using the straight-line and double-declining balance methods, which approximates estimated economic depreciation.

Reserve for Losses and Loss Expenses

Losses and loss adjustment expenses represent management’s best estimate of the ultimate net cost of all reported and unreported losses incurred. Reserves for unpaid losses and loss adjustment expenses are estimated using industry averages, however, will include individual case-basis valuations in the event if claims are received. These estimates and methods of establishing reserves are continually reviewed and updated.

Stock-based Compensation

The fair value of stock options is estimated at the grant date using the Black Scholes Option Pricing Model. This model requires the input of a number of assumptions, including expected volatility and dividend yields, expected stock price, risk-free interest rates, and an expected life of the options. Although the assumptions used reflect management’s best estimate, they involve inherent uncertainties based on market conditions generally outside the control of the Company.

Income Taxes

The Company currently has net operating loss (“NOL”) carry-forwards that can be utilized to offset future income for federal and state tax purposes. These NOLs represent a significant deferred tax asset. However, the Company has recorded a valuation allowance against this deferred tax asset as it has determined that it is more likely than not that it will not be able to fully utilize the NOLs. Should assumptions regarding the utilization of these NOLs change, the Company may reduce some or all of this valuation allowance, which would result in the recording of a deferred income tax benefit.

Jacobs Financial Group, Inc.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

The Company follows a more-likely-than-not measurement methodology to reflect the financial statement impact of uncertain tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. If taxing authorities were to disallow any tax positions taken by the Company, the additional income taxes, if any, would be imposed on the Company.

Interest and penalties associated with tax positions are recorded in the period assessed as general and administrative expenses. However, no interest or penalties have been assessed as of May 31, 2015 or 2014.

Earnings (Loss) Per Share

Basic earnings (loss) per share of common stock are computed using the weighted average number of shares outstanding during each period. Diluted earnings per share are computed on the basis of the average number of common shares outstanding plus the dilutive effect of convertible debt, stock options and warrants. In periods of net loss, there are no diluted earnings per share since the result would be anti-dilutive.

Note B – Newly Adopted and Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In December 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update 2011-11 (ASU 2011-11), Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities. The amendments in this Update will enhance disclosures required by U.S. GAAP by requiring improved information about financial instruments and derivative instruments that are either (1) offset in accordance with either Section 210-20-45 or Section 815-10-45 or (2) subject to an enforceable master netting arrangement or similar agreement. The amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after January 1, 2013 and for interim periods within those fiscal years. The amendments of ASU 2011-11 did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In January 2013, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2013-01 (ASU 2013-01), Clarifying the Scope of Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities. The main objective in developing this Update is to address implementation issues about the scope of Accounting Standards Update No. 2011-11, Balance Sheet Topic 210: Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities. The amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning on or after January 1, 2013, and interim periods within those annual periods. The amendments of ASU 2013-01 did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In February 2013, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2013-02 (ASU 2013-02), Reporting of Amounts Reclassified Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income. The objective of this Update is to improve the reporting of reclassifications out of accumulated other comprehensive income. The amendments in this Update seek to attain that objective by requiring an entity to report the effect of significant reclassifications out of accumulated other comprehensive income on the respective line items in net income if

F-14

Jacobs Financial Group, Inc.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

the amount being reclassified is required under U.S. GAAP to be reclassified in its entirety to net income. For other amounts that are not required under U.S. GAAP to be reclassified in their entirety to net income in the same reporting period, an entity is required to cross-reference other disclosures required under U.S. GAAP that provide additional detail about those amounts. The amendments are effective prospectively for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2012 and interim periods within those annual periods. The amendments of ASU 2013-02 did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In July 2013, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2013-11 (ASU 2013-11), Presentation of an Unrecognized Tax Benefit When a Net Operating Loss Carryforward, a Similar Tax Loss, or a Tax Credit Carryforward Exists a consensus of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force. The objective of this Update is to eliminate the diversities that exist in financial statement presentation. The amendments aim at attaining this objective by giving explicit guidance on the financial statement presentation of an unrecognized tax benefit when a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward exists. The amendments in this Update are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2013. The amendments of ASU 2013-11 did not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

In May 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2014-09 (ASU 2014-09), Revenue from Contracts with Customers. The guidance in this Update affects any entity that either enters into contracts with customers to transfer goods or services or enters into contracts for the transfer of nonfinancial assets unless those contracts are within the scope of other standards (for example, insurance contracts or lease contracts). The standard's core principle is that a company will recognize revenue when it transfers promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. In doing so, companies will need to use more judgment and make more estimates than under current guidance. This may include identifying performance obligations in the contract, estimating the amount of variable consideration to include in the transaction price and allocating the transaction price to each separate performance obligation. The amendments in this Update are effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within that reporting period. Early adoption is not permitted. Companies have the option of using either a full or modified retrospective approach in applying this standard. The Company is in the process of assessing the impact of ASU 2014-09 on its consolidated financial statements.

In August 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-15, Presentation of Financial Statements-Going Concern (Subtopic 205-40) (ASU 2014-15). ASU 2014-15 is intended to define management's responsibility to evaluate whether there is substantial doubt about an organization's ability to continue as a going concern and to provide related footnote disclosures. This guidance is effective for us for the annual period ending May 31, 2017 and interim and annual periods thereafter. We do not expect the adoption of this

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

standard to have a material impact on our consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flows.

In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-03, “Interest - Imputation of Interest”, which require debt issuance costs to be presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the associated debt liability. The new rules were effective for the Company in the first quarter of 2016. In August 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-15, “Interest - Imputation of Interest (Subtopic 835-30) - Presentation and Subsequent Measurement of Debt Issuance Costs Associated with Line-of-Credit Arrangements”. The guidance clarifies accounting for debt issuance costs related to line-of-credit arrangements. The standard states that the FASB deems deferring debt issuance costs related to line-of-credit arrangements as an asset and amortizing over the term of the agreement to be appropriate. The adoption of these accounting rules did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

In February 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-02, “Consolidation (Topic 810)”, an update to their existing consolidation model, which changes the analysis a reporting entity must perform to determine whether it should consolidate certain types of legal entities. The new rules will be effective for the Company in the first quarter of 2016. The adoption of the new accounting rules will not have a material impact on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

Management has assessed the potential impact of recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting standards and determined that the provisions are either not applicable to the Company, or are not anticipated to have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.

There are no securities classified as held to maturity at May 31, 2015 or May 31, 2014.

Invested assets are exposed to various risks, such as interest rate, market and credit risks. Due to the level of risk associated with certain of these invested assets and the level of uncertainty related to changes in the value of these assets, it is possible that changes in risks in the near term may significantly affect the amounts reported in the Consolidated Balance Sheets and Statements of Operations.

Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The Company uses the following fair value hierarchy in selecting inputs, with the highest priority given to Level 1, as these are the most transparent or reliable:

Level 1 – Quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets.

Level 2 – Quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; and model-derived valuations in which all significant inputs are observable in active markets.

Level 3 – Valuations derived from valuation techniques in which one or more significant inputs are unobservable.

Fair values are provided by the Company’s independent investment custodians that utilize third-party quotation services for the valuation of the fixed-income investment securities and money-market funds held. The Company’s investment custodians are large money-center banks. The Company’s equity investment is valued using quoted market prices.

The following section describes the valuation methodologies used to measure different financial instruments at fair value, including an indication of the level in the fair value hierarchy in which the instrument is generally classified.

Fixed Income Securities

Securities valued using Level 1 inputs include highly liquid government bonds for which quoted market prices are available. Securities using Level 2 inputs are valued using pricing for similar securities, recently executed transactions, cash flow models with yield curves and other pricing models utilizing observable inputs. Most fixed income securities are valued using Level 2 inputs. Level 2 includes corporate bonds, municipal bonds, asset-backed securities and mortgage pass-through securities.

Equity Securities

Level 1 includes publicly traded securities valued using quoted market prices.

Short-Term Investments

The valuation of securities that are actively traded or have quoted prices are classified as Level 1. These securities include money market funds and U.S. Treasury bills. Level 2 includes commercial paper, for which all significant inputs are observable.

At May 31, 2015, the Company’s insurance subsidiary had securities and short term investment with a fair value of $1,203,351 on deposit with the State insurance department to satisfy regulatory requirements. In connection with regulatory approval of the Company’s acquisition of its insurance subsidiary, certain restrictions were imposed on the ability of the Company to withdraw funds from FSC without prior approval of the state Insurance Commissioner. Accordingly, investments and cash in the amount of $10,100,908 and $9,756,694 as of May 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively, are restricted to the use of FSC.

At May 31, 2015, the Company’s insurance subsidiary had cash, securities and short term investments held as collateral for their bonding program in the amount of $2,352,487.

Principal repayments on U.S. government agency mortgage-backed securities held by the Company as of May 31, 2015 are estimated as follows:

	Amortized Cost		Fair Market Value
Due in one year or less	$	709,965	$	718,154
Due after one year through five years		2,150,737		2,218,584
Due after five years through ten years		751,876		759,408
Due after ten years		243,096		244,517
	$	3,855,674	$	3,940,663

Estimated repayments are forecast based on varying prepayment speeds for each particular security held assuming that interest rates remain constant. Expected repayments will differ from actual repayments because borrowers of the underlying mortgages have a right to prepay obligations.

Note F – Intangibles

As the result of the acquisition of FSC on December 30, 2005, in exchange for the purchase price of $2,900,000, the Company received cash and investments held by FSC with a fair value of $2,750,000, with the difference of $150,000 being attributed to the property and casualty licenses of FSC in the states of West Virginia, Ohio and Indiana. Such licenses have indefinite lives and are evaluated annually, or more frequently if circumstances indicate that a possible impairment has occurred, for recoverability and possible impairment loss. No impairment has been recorded in fiscal years ended May 31, 2015 and 2014.

Note G - Reserve for Losses and Loss Expense

Reserves for unpaid losses and loss adjustment expenses are estimated based primarily on management’s judgment as the Company has only incurred one loss since its inception and available industry data is also extremely limited. In the event of the Company receiving a claim it will use individual case basis estimates including all estimated future expenses to settle such claims. As of May 31, 2015, the Company’s insurance subsidiary, FSC, is only licensed to write surety in West Virginia and Ohio and has focused its primary efforts towards coal permit reclamation bonds while also providing other miscellaneous surety bonds, most of which are partially collateralized by investment accounts that are managed by Jacobs & Company. Reclamation of land that has been disturbed by mining operations is highly regulated by federal and state agencies and the required bonds are generally long-

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

term in nature with mining operations and reclamation work conducted in unison as the property is being mined.

Additionally, no two principals or properties are alike due to varied company structures and unique geography and geology of each site. In underwriting such bonds, management develops, through consultation with professionals experienced in the specific field of work, estimates of costs to reclaim the properties subject of the permit(s) in accordance with those mining permit(s), in addition to other underwriting and financial risk considerations. FSC requires the principal to provide cash, or other acceptable collateral such as irrevocable letters of credit, in amounts determined through the underwriting process to reclaim the disturbed land and thus mitigate the exposure to significant loss.

FSC maintains a reinsurance agreement with various syndicates at Lloyd's of London. The reinsurance agreement is an excess of loss contract that protects FSC against losses up to certain limits over stipulated amounts. Such cash is invested in investment collateral accounts managed by Jacobs utilizing investment strategies consistent with the state code governing investments of an insurance company.

Inspections of mining activity and reclamation work are performed on a regular basis with initial cost estimates being updated periodically. Should the principal default in the obligation to reclaim the property in accordance with the mining permit, FSC would then use the funds held in the collateral account to reclaim the property or would be required to forfeit the face amount of the bond to the agency to which the bond is issued.

Losses can occur if the costs of reclamation exceed estimates obtained at the time the bond was underwritten or upon subsequent re-evaluations, if sufficient collateral is not obtained and increased if necessary, or if collateral held has experienced a significant deterioration in value. FSC has experienced only one claim for loss as of May 31, 2015 and thus provisions for losses and loss adjustment expense have been based on management’s experience adjusted for other factors unique to the Company’s approach, and in consultation with actuaries experienced in the surety field.

As a result of an examination by the West Virginia Insurance Commissioner, a reserve strengthening in the form of an increase to the Loss Reserve was recorded in 2015 in the amount of approximately $800,000.

At May 31, 2015 and May 31, 2014, the reserve for losses and loss expenses consisted of:

During the year ended May 31, 2014, a board member that held $435,000 in unsecured notes payables from the Company resigned. During the year ended May 31, 2014, the Company incurred approximately $63,000 in related party interest expense to this individual.

All notes payables, with the exception of the bridge-financing arrangement and those secured by FSC stock are on demand terms and therefore current. The terms of the bridge-financing arrangement are detailed in the following paragraphs.

In accordance with the terms of the first round bridge-financing of $2.5 million on March 10, 2008, the holders of such notes were paid accrued interest-to date and issued 5.00% of the Company's common shares. Holders of the second round of bridge-financing notes of $1.0 million received 2.00% of the Company's common shares. Upon retirement of the notes subsequent to consummation of a qualified equity offering, the Company shall issue to the holders of the bridge financing notes additional Company common stock that when added to the stock initially issued to the holders of the notes, will equal the note holders’ pro rata share of the applicable percentage of the outstanding common stock of the Company as follows: If the qualified financing consists of $50 million or more, the holders of such notes will receive 28% of the common stock of the Company that would otherwise be retained by the holders of the Company's common shares immediately prior to the financing; if the qualified financing is for an amount less than $50 million, the percentage will be reduced on a sliding scale to a fraction of 28% of the amount retained by the holders of the Company's common shares (where the numerator is the amount of financing and the denominator is $50 million). This feature was analyzed and determined to be an embedded derivative, but the value was considered to be immaterial, and therefore has not been recorded.

Beginning September 10, 2008, because a qualified financing had not been completed, the Company became required under the terms of the bridge financing to issue 2.80% of the Company's outstanding common shares and shall issue 2.80% of the Company's outstanding common shares upon each six-month anniversary date thereof until retirement of the notes. This feature was analyzed and determined to be an embedded derivative, but the value was considered to be immaterial and therefore has not been recorded for shares remaining to be issued. The following table summarizes the common shares issued to those note holders as a result incurring these penalties.

Pursuant to the terms of the Promissory Notes, the first two of 20 equal quarterly installments of principal and interest payable thereunder were to have been paid on December 10, 2008 and March 10, 2009 (the “Initial Amortization Payments”). As the result of upheavals and dislocations in the capital markets, the Company was unable to either refinance the indebtedness evidenced by the Promissory Notes or make the Initial Amortization Payments to the Holders when due; and an Event of Default (as defined in the Promissory Notes) occurred under the Promissory Notes as a result of the Company’s failure to pay the Initial Amortization Payments within 14 days after same became due and payable.

On June 5, 2009 the Company entered into an agreement with the bridge lenders to forbear from exercising their rights and remedies arising from the Acknowledged Events of Default. The Original forbearance was amended October 13, 2009. As consideration for the forbearance, the Company issued 5,171,993 shares of Common stock, and pledged the stock of an inactive subsidiary of the Company, Crystal Mountain Water (CMW), as security for repayment of the loans. The original repayment schedule called for quarterly payments of $224,515. The Holders agreed that under the forbearance the Company may satisfy its obligation by increasing the quarterly payments by $67,185, (to a total of $291,700) for eight consecutive quarters beginning September 10, 2009 to satisfy the arrearage. In addition, the interest rate was increased to 17.00%. Although the Company failed to make the payment that was due September 10, 2009 and the payments that were due in the ensuing quarters, management remained in close contact with the bridge lenders, providing reports regarding its efforts to refinance or otherwise repay the bridge loans.

payment to each bridge lender. To date, the proposed financing has not closed, and the Company has been unable to remit the partial payment. On August 10, 2012, the Company entered into an agreement with the bridge lenders, pursuant to which the bridge lenders formally agreed to forbear from exercising their rights and remedies arising from the accumulated acknowledged events of default with respect to the bridge loans until such date. As consideration for this forbearance, the Company entered into an Amended and Restated General Hypothecation and Pledge Agreement dated August 9, 2012 (the “August 2012 Pledge”), but effective September 23, 2011, granting to the bridge lenders as security for the repayment of the loans a lien and security interest in all of the Company’s shares of capital stock of First Surety Corporation. Under the August 2012 Pledge, the bridge lenders acknowledge that the effectiveness of certain of the rights and remedies provided by such agreement may be subject to prior approval by the Office of the Commissioner of Insurance for the State of West Virginia. As of May 31, 2015 no payment were made to bridge lenders.

Note J - Preferred Stock

Redeemable Preferred Stock

On December 30, 2005, through a private placement, the Company issued 350 shares of 4% Non-Voting Series A Preferred Stock (Series A Preferred Stock), along with 1,050,000 warrants for common shares of Company stock as additional consideration, for a cash investment in the amount of $350,000, in connection with the Company's acquisition of FSC. Holders of Series A Preferred Stock are entitled to participate in FSC's partially collateralized bonding programs, subject to continuing satisfaction of underwriting criteria, based upon the bonding capacity of FSC attributable to capital reserves of FSC established with the subscription proceeds (i.e., bonding capacity equal to ten times subscription proceeds) and for so long as the subscriber holds the Series A shares. Holders of the Series A Preferred Stock are entitled to receive, when and as declared by the board of directors, cumulative preferential cash dividends at a rate of four percent of the $1,000 liquidation preference per annum (equivalent to a fixed annual rate of $40 per share). The Series A Preferred Stock ranks senior to the Company's common stock and pari passu with the Company's Series B Preferred and Series C Preferred Stock with respect to dividend rights and rights upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company. The holder may redeem the Series A Preferred Stock on or after the seventh anniversary of the Issue Date, if the holder provides a written statement to the Company that it will no longer require surety bonds issued by the Company's insurance subsidiary (FSC) under its partially collateralized bonding programs and, if no such surety bonds are then outstanding, the Company, at the option of the holder, will redeem all or any portion of the Series A Preferred Stock of such holder at a price per share equal to the Series A Preferred Stock Issue Price plus all accrued and unpaid dividends with respect to the shares of the Series A Preferred Stock of such holder to be redeemed. The conditional redemption shall not be available to any holder of Series A Preferred Stock for so long as surety bonds of the Company's insurance subsidiary issued on a partially collateralized basis remain outstanding for the benefit of such holder, and upon redemption, such holder shall no longer be eligible to participate in the partially collateralized bonding programs of the insurance subsidiary. The Company is authorized to issue up to 1,000,000 shares of the Series A Preferred Stock. As of May 31, 2015, the Company has issued 2,675 shares of Series A Preferred Stock in exchange for cash investments in the amount of $2,675,000, of which no shares were issued in fiscal 2015 or 2014.

received requests for redemption of 1,020 shares of Series A Preferred. The aggregate amount to which the holders requesting redemption are entitled as of May 31, 2015, is $1,467,701.

Under the terms of the Series A Preferred Stock, upon receipt of such a request, the Company’s Board was required to make a good faith determination regarding (A) whether the funds of the Company legally available for redemption of shares of Series A Stock are sufficient to redeem the total number of shares of Series A Stock to be redeemed on such date and (B) whether the amounts otherwise legally available for redemption would, if used to effect the redemption, not result in an impairment of the operations of the Insurance Subsidiary. If the Board determines that there is a sufficiency of legally available funds to accomplish the redemption and that the use of such funds to affect the redemption will not result in an impairment of the operations of the Insurance Subsidiary, then the redemption shall occur on the Redemption Date. If, however, the Board determines either that there are not sufficient funds legally available to accomplish the redemption or that the use of such funds to effect the redemption will result in an impairment of the operations of the Insurance Subsidiary, then (X) the Company shall notify the holders of shares that would otherwise have been redeemed of such fact and the consequences as provided in this paragraph, (Y) the Company will use those funds which are legally available therefor and which would not result in an impairment of the operations of the Insurance Subsidiary to redeem the maximum possible number of shares of Series A Stock for which Redemption Notices have been received ratably among the holders of such shares to be redeemed based upon their holdings of such shares, and (Z) thereafter, until such shares are redeemed in full, the dividends accruing and payable on such shares of Series A Stock to be redeemed shall be increased by 2% of the Series A Face Amount, with the amount of such increase (i.e., 2% of the Series A Face Amount) to be satisfied by distributions on each Dividend Payment Date of shares of Common Stock having a value (determined by reference to the average closing price of such Common Stock over the preceding 20 trading days) equal to the amount of such increase. The shares of Series A Stock not redeemed shall remain outstanding and entitled to all the rights and preferences provided herein. At any time thereafter when additional funds of the Company are legally available for the redemption of shares of Series A Stock and such redemption will not result in an impairment of operations of the Insurance Subsidiary, such funds will immediately be used to redeem the balance of the shares of Series A Stock to be redeemed. No dividends or other distributions shall be declared or paid on, nor shall the Company redeem, purchase or acquire any shares of, the Common Stock or any other class or series of Junior Securities or Equal Ranking Preferred of the Company unless the Redemption Price per share of all shares for which Redemption Notices have been given shall have been paid in full, provided that the redemption price of any Equal Ranking Preferred subject to redemption shall be paid on a pari passu basis with the Redemption Price of the Series A Stock subject to redemption in accordance herewith. Until the Redemption Price for each share of Series A Stock elected to be redeemed shall have been paid in full, such share of Series A Stock shall remain outstanding for all purposes and entitle the holder thereof to all the rights and privileges provided herein, and Dividends shall continue to accrue and, if unpaid prior to the date such shares are redeemed, shall be included as part of the Redemption Price.

The Company’s Board of Directors determined based on the criteria established under the terms of the Preferred Stocks that there were insufficient funds available for the redemption of Preferred Stocks.

On December 30, 2005, through a private placement, the Company issued 3,980 shares of 8% Non-Voting Series B Convertible Preferred Stock (Series B Preferred Stock), along with 19,900,000 warrants for common shares of Company stock as additional consideration, for a cash investment in the amount of $2,985,000; and issued 4,891 shares of Series B Preferred Stock, along with 24,452,996 warrants for common shares of Company stock as additional consideration, for a conversion of $3,667,949 of indebtedness of the Company, in connection with the Company's acquisition of FSC. Holders of the Series B Preferred Stock are entitled to receive, when and as declared by the board of directors, cumulative preferential cash dividends at a rate of eight percent of the $1,000 liquidation preference per annum (equivalent to a fixed annual rate of $80 per share). The Series B Preferred Stock ranks senior to the Company's common stock and pari passu with the Company's Series A Preferred and Series C Preferred Stock with respect to dividend rights and rights upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company. Each share of the Series B Preferred Stock is convertible at the option of the holder, at any time after the original issue date, into 1,000 fully paid and non-assessable shares of the Company's common stock at a conversion price of $1.00 per common share. The Company may redeem the Series B Preferred Stock at any time after the first anniversary of the Original Issue Date at a price per share equal to the Series B Preferred Stock Face Amount plus all accrued and unpaid dividends with respect to the shares of the Series B Preferred Stock of such holder to be redeemed. To the extent that the Series B Preferred Stock has not been redeemed by the Company, the holder may redeem the Series B Preferred Stock on or after the fifth anniversary of the Original Issue Date at a price per share equal to the Series B Preferred Stock Face Amount plus all accrued and unpaid dividends with respect to the shares of the Series B Preferred Stock of such holder to be redeemed. The Company is authorized to issue up to 10,000 shares of the Series B Preferred Stock. The Company has not issued any additional shares of Series B Preferred Stock during fiscal 2015.

The Company’s outstanding Series B Preferred stock matured on December 30, 2010, meaning that the holders of the Series B Stock that had not requested exchange to the Company’s Series C Preferred stock became entitled to request that the Company redeem their Series B Shares. As part of the exchange to Series C Preferred Stock in September 2009, the shares that did not exchange were treated as a liability on the balance sheet. As of May 31, 2015, of the 2,817 shares of Series B Preferred that remained outstanding, the Company has received requests for redemption of 2,219 shares of Series B Preferred. The aggregate amount to which the holders requesting redemption are entitled as of May 31, 2015, is $4,710,205.

Under the terms of the Series B Preferred Stock, upon receipt of such a request, the Company’s Board was required to make a good faith determination regarding (A) whether the funds of the Company legally available for redemption of shares of Series B Stock are sufficient to redeem the total number of shares of Series B Stock to be redeemed on such date and (B) whether the amounts otherwise legally available for redemption would, if used

If the Board determines that there is a sufficiency of legally available funds to accomplish the redemption and that the use of such funds to affect the redemption will not result in an impairment of the operations of the Insurance Subsidiary, then the redemption shall occur on the Redemption Date. If, however, the Board determines either that there are not sufficient funds legally available to accomplish the redemption or that the use of such funds to effect the redemption will result in an impairment of the operations of the Insurance Subsidiary, then (X) the Company shall notify the holders of shares that would otherwise have been redeemed of such fact and the consequences as provided in this paragraph, (Y) the Company will use those funds which are legally available therefor and which would not result in an impairment of the operations of the Insurance Subsidiary to redeem the maximum possible number of shares of Series B Stock for which Redemption Notices have been received ratably among the holders of such shares to be redeemed based upon their holdings of such shares, and (Z) thereafter, until such shares are redeemed in full, the dividends accruing and payable on such shares of Series B Stock to be redeemed shall be increased by 2% of the Series B Face Amount, with the amount of such increase (i.e., 2% of the Series B Face Amount) to be satisfied by distributions on each Dividend Payment Date of shares of Common Stock having a value (determined by reference to the average closing price of such Common Stock over the preceding 20 trading days) equal to the amount of such increase. The shares of Series B Stock not redeemed shall remain outstanding and entitled to all the rights and preferences provided herein. At any time thereafter when additional funds of the Company are legally available for the redemption of shares of Series B Stock and such redemption will not result in an impairment of operations of the Insurance Subsidiary, such funds will immediately be used to redeem the balance of the shares of Series B Stock to be redeemed. No dividends or other distributions shall be declared or paid on, nor shall the Company redeem, purchase or acquire any shares of, the Common Stock or any other class or series of Junior Securities or Equal Ranking Preferred of the Company unless the Redemption Price per share of all shares for which Redemption Notices have been given shall have been paid in full, provided that the redemption price of any Equal Ranking Preferred subject to redemption shall be paid on a pari passu basis with the Redemption Price of the Series B Stock subject to redemption in accordance herewith. Until the Redemption Price for each share of Series B Stock elected to be redeemed shall have been paid in full, such share of Series B Stock shall remain outstanding for all purposes and entitle the holder thereof to all the rights and privileges provided herein, and Dividends shall continue to accrue and, if unpaid prior to the date such shares are redeemed, shall be included as part of the Redemption Price.

The Company’s Board of Directors determined based on the criteria established under the terms of the Series B Preferred Stock that there were insufficient funds available for the redemption of Series B Stock.

The Company experienced a loss after accretion of mandatorily redeemable convertible preferred stock, and accrued dividends on mandatorily redeemable preferred stock of $1,669,587 in fiscal 2015 as compared with a loss after accretion of mandatorily redeemable convertible preferred stock, and accrued dividends on mandatorily redeemable preferred stock of $1,925,523 in fiscal 2014.

Equity Preferred Stock

As a means of alleviating obligations associated with the Company's Series B Preferred Stock, which by its terms matured at the end of 2010, management proposed a recapitalization to assist in stabilizing the financial position of the Company. The Company’s Certificate of Incorporation provides for two classes of capital stock, known as common stock, $0.0001 par value per share (the “Common Stock”), and preferred stock, $0.0001 par value per share (the “Preferred Stock”). The Company’s Board is authorized by the Certificate of Incorporation to provide for the issuance of the shares of Preferred Stock in series, and by filing a certificate pursuant to the applicable law of the State of Delaware, to establish from time to time the number of shares to be included in such series and to fix the designations, preferences and rights of the shares of each such series and the qualifications, limitations and restrictions thereof. The Board deemed it advisable to designate a Series C Preferred Stock and fixed and determined the preferences, rights, qualifications, limitations and restrictions relating to the Series C Preferred Stock as follows:

1. Designation. The shares of such series of Preferred Stock are designated “Series C Preferred Stock” (referred to herein as the “Series C Stock”). The date on which the first share of Series C Stock is issued shall hereinafter be referred to as the “Original Issue Date”.

2. Authorized Number. The number of shares constituting the Series C Stock is 10,000.

3. Ranking. The Series C Stock ranks, (a) as to dividends and upon Liquidation senior and prior to the Common Stock and all other equity securities to which the Series C ranks prior, with respect to dividends and upon Liquidation (collectively, “Junior Securities”), (b) pari passu with the Corporation’s Series A Preferred Stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Series A Stock”), the Corporation’s Series B Stock, and any other series of Preferred Stock subsequently established by the Board with equal ranking (any such other series of Preferred Stock, together with the Series C Stock, the Series B Stock and Series A Stock are collectively referred to as the “Equal Ranking Preferred”) and (c) junior to any other series of Preferred Stock subsequently established by the Board with senior ranking.

4. Dividends.

(a) Dividend Accrual and Payment. The holders of the Series C Stock shall be entitled to receive, in preference to the holders of Junior Securities, dividends (“Dividends”) on each outstanding share of Series C Stock at the rate of 8% per annum of the sum of (i) the Series C Face Amount plus (ii) an amount equal to any accrued, but unpaid, dividends on such Series C Stock, including for this purpose the exchanged Series B Amount outstanding with respect to such Series C Stock. For purposes hereof, the “Series B Amount” means an amount equal to the dividend that would have accrued on such Series C Stock held by such holder from and after the Series B Original Issue Date applicable to such share of Series C Stock, through the Original Issue Date as if such Series C Stock had been issued on such Series B Original Issue Date, less all amounts thereof distributed by the Corporation with respect to such Series C Stock. Dividends shall be payable quarterly in arrears on each January 1, April 1, July 1 and October 1 following the

F-32

Jacobs Financial Group, Inc.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

Original Issue Date, or, if any such date is a Saturday, Sunday or legal holiday, then on the next day which is not a Saturday, Sunday or legal holiday (each a “Dividend Payment Date”), as declared by the Board and, if not paid on the Dividend Payment Date, shall accrue. Amounts available for payment of Dividends (including for this purpose the Series B Amount) shall be allocated and paid with respect to the shares of Series C Preferred and any other Equal Ranking Preferred, first, among the shares of Equal Ranking Preferred pro rata in accordance with the amounts of dividends accruing with respect to such shares at the current Dividend Payment Date, and, then, any additional amounts available for distribution in accordance with the accrued, but unpaid, dividends (and the Series B Amount then outstanding) at each prior Dividend Payment Date, in reverse chronological order, with respect to all shares of the Equal Ranking Preferred then outstanding in accordance with amounts accrued, but unpaid. For purposes hereof, the term “Series B Original Issue Date” shall mean, with respect to any share of Series C Stock issued by the Corporation in exchange for a share of Series B Stock, the date on which the Corporation originally issued such share of Series B Stock.

The Recapitalization consisted of the exchange of Series B Shares for a combination of Series C Shares and Common Stock. For each Series B Share, the participating holder received (i) one Series C Share and (ii) 2,000 shares of JFG Common Stock (for no additional consideration).

For the year ended May 31, 2010, 6,805 shares of Series B Stock were surrendered and exchanged for 6,805 shares of Series C Stock. This exchange amounted to $6,269,051 of carrying value of Series B stock being exchanged for Series C and Common Stock. 13,609,872 shares of Common Stock were issued to the Series C Stock holders at the rate of 2,000 Common shares for each exchanged Series B Stock, with the related cost associated with the Common issuance offsetting the Series C carrying value by $265,120. The shares were valued at approximately $.01948 per share based on the average quoted closing price of the Company's stock for the 20-day period proceeding the date of the transaction. Series C stock may be redeemed by the Company but does not have a fixed maturity date and, thus, is classified as permanent equity. For the year ending May 31, 2014, 2,817 shares of Series B Stock had not been exchanged.

Dividend Preference and Accretion

The Series A Shares are entitled to receive cumulative dividends at the compounding rate of 4.00% per annum.

The Series B Shares have an 8.0% per annum compounding dividend preference, are convertible into Common Shares of JFG at the option of the holders at a conversion price of $1.00 per Share (as adjusted for dilution) and, to the extent not converted, must be

F-33

Jacobs Financial Group, Inc.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

redeemed by the Corporation at any time after December 31, 2010 at the option of the holder. Any such redemption is subject to legal constraints, such as the availability of capital or surplus out of which to pay the redemption, and to a determination by the Board of Directors that the redemption will not impair the operations of First Surety Corporation.

The Series C Shares issued in the Recapitalization have the same 8.0% per annum compounding dividend preference and carry over from the Series B Shares the same accrued but unpaid dividends. While dividends had never been declared on the Series B shares, they had been accrued, increasing the dividend preference and the redemption price and liquidity preference of such shares and increasing the liability represented thereby based upon the Series B Shares fixed maturity date. The accrued (but undeclared) dividends associated with the Series C exchange amounted to $2,295,624 and are included in the total amount exchanged for Series C Shares. Unlike the Series B Shares with their fixed maturity date, the Series C Shares are permanent equity, with accruing dividends only increasing the preference amount that must be satisfied before junior securities may participate in dividends or on liquidation. Accordingly, the effect of the accrual of dividends with respect to the Series C Shares on the Company’s balance sheet is to increase the aggregate claim of the Series C Shares on the equity of the corporation and to increase the deficit in common equity, while having no effect on the net equity of the corporation as a whole. The entitlement of the Series C Shares to a priority in relation to junior securities with respect to dividends and on liquidation does not create an obligation to the Company and therefore no liability is recorded until the dividends are declared by the Board of the Company. The Series C Shares are pari passu with the Corporation’s Series A Preferred Stock and Series B Shares (to the extent any remain outstanding following the Recapitalization) and no dividends or other distributions will be paid upon Common Shares or any other class of Shares that is junior in priority to the Series C Preferred while dividends are in arrears. In addition, the Series C Shares are convertible into Common Shares of JFG at the option of the holders at a conversion price of $0.10 per Share. The Series C Shares may be redeemed by the Corporation, at its option, when it is in a financial position to do so.

Holders of over 70% of the outstanding Series B Preferred Shares elected to participate in the recapitalization. The shares of Series B Preferred Shareholders that chose not to convert are listed in the Liabilities section of the Balance Sheet, and therefore the accretion and dividends associated with the Series B stock after November 30, 2009 are deductions from net income. Dividends on Series B mandatorily redeemable preferred stock deducted from net income amounted to $445,510 for the year ended May 31, 2015. The remaining Series B shares not converted were accreted from carrying value to the face amount for the 5 year period from the date of issuance. Series C stock has no accretion. There were no shares of Series B Stock surrendered or exchanged in the year ended May 31, 2015.

During the year ended May 31, 2012, two holders of Series A stock released all of their outstanding bonds held with FSC. These shares of Series A Preferred Shareholders are listed in the liability section of the Balance Sheet as of May 31, 2015, in the amount of $1,605,571, which consists of the fully accreted $1,126,000 face value of stock and $479,571 in dividends payable. The dividends associated with these shares of Series A

Jacobs Financial Group, Inc.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

stock for the year ended May 31, 2015, is a deduction from net income in the amount of $62,649. There was no current accretion on these shares of Series A stock.

As of May 31, 2015 the Company has chosen to defer payment of dividends on Series A Preferred Stock with such accrued and unpaid dividends amounting to $1,005,679 through May 31, 2015. These dividends are included in the amounts reported on the face of the balance sheet for each classification of Series A stock.

As of May 31, 2015 the Company has chosen to defer payment of dividends on Series B and Series C Preferred Stock with such accrued and unpaid dividends amounting to $3,033,078 and $7,277,766 through May 31, 2015, respectively. These dividend are included in the amounts reported on the face of the balance sheet for each respective classification if stock.

Accounting Treatment

U.S. GAAP requires that an entity classify as liabilities certain financial instruments with characteristics of both liabilities and equity. The Company's Series A and B Preferred stock each have mandatory redemption features that subject the Company to the analysis of equity versus liability. Both Series A and B have features that embody a conditional obligation to redeem the instrument upon events not certain to occur and accordingly, are not classified as liabilities until such events are certain to occur. With respect to the Series A Preferred Stock, such condition is contingent upon the holder having no further need for surety bonds issued by the Company's insurance subsidiary (FSC) under its partially collateralized bonding programs and, having no such surety bonds then outstanding. With respect to the Series B Preferred Stock, if the stock provides an option to the holder to convert to common shares at a rate equivalent to fair value, then the financial instruments are not mandatorily redeemable during the period in which the holder can convert the shares into common shares. Accordingly, the Company has determined that only the Series A preferred stocks held by principals with outstanding surety bonds should not be classified as liabilities. However, in accordance with Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) Issued Topic No. D- 98, SEC Staff Announcement, "Classification and Measurement of Redeemable Securities", a company that issues preferred shares that are conditionally redeemable is required to account for the conditionally redeemable preferred shares in accordance with Accounting Series Release 268, which states that the shares are to be reflected on the Company's balance sheet between total liabilities and stockholders' equity as temporary equity.

Note K - Stock Warrants

On December 30, 2005, the Company issued warrants to purchase 45,402,996 shares of common stock in connection with the Series A and B Preferred Stock private placements. The exercise price of the warrants is $.001 per share. The warrants were valued using the Black-Scholes pricing model. The warrants issued in connection with the Series A Preferred Stock were valued at $.08 per share or $83,043. The warrants issued in connection with the Series B Preferred Stock were valued at $.01 per share or $449,972.

Note L-Stock-Based Compensation

On October 12, 2005, the board of directors adopted its 2005 Stock Incentive Plan (the "Plan") to allow the Company to make awards of stock options as part of the Company's compensation to key employees, non-employee directors, contractors and consultants. The Plan was approved by the stockholders on December 8, 2005. The aggregate number of shares of Common Stock issuable under all awards under the Plan is 35,000,000. No awards may be granted under the Plan after December 8, 2015.

On December 28, 2006, the compensation committee of the board of directors awarded 2,100,000 of incentive stock options to acquire common shares at an exercise price of $.04 per share, of which 450,000 shares vested immediately and the remaining 1,650,000 options vesting over the next three years ending in December 2009. As of May 31, 2010, the awarded options had been reduced to 1,800,000 due to changes in employment status, all of which expired in December 2011.

On June 30, 2009 the compensation committee of the board of directors awarded 10,000,000 of incentive stock options to acquire common shares at an exercise price of $.04 per share, of which 4,700,000 shares vested immediately and the remaining 5,300,000 options vesting over the next three years ending in June 2011. As of May 31, 2015, the awarded options had been reduced to 9,800,000 due to changes in employment status, all of which expired in June 2014.

The following table summarizes option activity under the Plan for the fiscal year ended May 31, 2015.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

There were no options exercised in fiscal 2015 or 2014. All shares were vested as of May 31, 2012.

There is no unrecognized compensation expense related to non-vested awards at May 31, 2015 or May 31, 2014 as all awards are fully vested and the related compensation recognized previously.

The Company estimates the fair value of stock options using a Black-Scholes valuation model. Key inputs and assumptions used to estimate the fair value of stock options include the grant price of the award, the expected option term, volatility of the Company's stock, the risk-free interest rate and the company's dividend yield.

Note M – Income Taxes

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recorded for the effects of temporary differences between the tax basis of an asset or liability and its reported amount in the consolidated financial statements. Such differences include the income recognition of a portion of the unearned premium reserve, loss reserve deductibility, accruals not currently deductible relating to stock option expense and certain accrued expenses that are not paid within specified time frames by the Internal Revenue Service, and the deductibility of deferred policy acquisition costs paid. As of May 31, 2015, the Company had estimated operating loss carry forwards of approximately $16.2 million. These carry forwards begin expiring in 2015 and, as a result of the ownership change resulting from the 2001 acquisitions of FSI and Jacobs, the utilization of approximately $6.4 million of the operating loss carry forwards are substantially limited.

The Company has fully reserved the $5.5 million tax benefit of the operating loss carry forward, by a valuation allowance of the same amount, because the likelihood of realization of the tax benefit cannot be determined.

Note N – Stockholders’ Equity

In fiscal 2015, the Company issued 495,856 shares of the Company's common stock as additional consideration in connection with new and continued borrowings totaling $495,856.

Note O-Statutory Financial Data (Unaudited)

The Company’s insurance subsidiary files calendar year financial statements prepared in accordance with statutory accounting practices prescribed or permitted by regulatory authorities. The principal differences between statutory financial statements and financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles are that statutory financial statements do not reflect deferred policy acquisition costs and certain assets are non-admitted.

F-38

Jacobs Financial Group, Inc.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

Statutory surplus as of May 31, 2015 and 2014 and net income for the Company’s insurance subsidiary for the calendar year ended December 31, 2014 and 2013 and five-month periods ended May 31, 2015 and 2014 are as follows:

Statutory Surplus	May 31, 2015	$	5,830,379
Statutory Surplus	May 31, 2014	$	5,905,066

Net Income	Calendar year 2014	$	232,337
Net Income	Calendar year 2013	$	198,375

Net Income	Five-month period 2015	$	189,559
Net Income	Five-month period 2014	$	36,583

Statutory surplus exceeds the West Virginia state law minimum capital requirements of $2.0 million.

Under the West Virginia insurance code, ordinary dividends to stockholders are allowed to be paid only from that part of the insurance subsidiary’s (FSC’s) available surplus funds which constitutes realized net profits from the business and whereby all such dividends or distributions made within the preceding twelve months do not exceed the lesser of 10% of FSC’s surplus as regards to policyholders as of December 31^st of the preceding year-end or net income from operations from the previous two calendar years, not including capital gains. Any payment of extraordinary dividends requires prior approval from the WV state insurance commissioner.

On March 26, 2012 the Commissioner of the State of West Virginia (WVOIC) terminated in its entirety the Amended Consent Order of June 7, 2007 and terminated the restrictive conditions of the Consent Order issued December 23, 2005 which approved acquisition of FSC by the Company. Among other consequences, removal of these restrictions allowed dividends to be declared by and paid from FSC to the Company. Dividends in the amounts of $173,000 and $198,000 were declared and paid for the twelve month periods ending May 31, 2015 and May 31, 2014.

The dividends for 2015 were deemed by the WVOIC to be extraordinary, causing the insurance subsidiary (FSC) to be fined $5,000 due to not obtaining consent prior to payment.

Note P – Commitments and Contingencies

Lease Commitments

The Company leases certain office equipment with combined monthly payments of approximately $477 that have varying remaining terms of less than five years. The

F-39

Jacobs Financial Group, Inc.

Company leases office, parking and storage space under month-to-month lease arrangements that approximate $3,844 each month.

The Company’ inactive subsidiary, Crystal Mountain Spring Water, holds an undeveloped leasehold interest in a mineral water spring located near Hot Springs, Arkansas. Under the leasehold arrangement, the Company makes minimum lease payments of $180 per month. The Company has options to extend the leasehold arrangement through October 2026 and also has a right to cancel the lease at any time upon sixty (60) days written notice.

Rental expense for these lease commitments totaled approximately $55,301 and $55,070 during fiscal years 2015 and 2014.

Minimum future lease payments under non-cancelable operating leases having remaining terms in excess of one year as of May 31, 2015 are:

Fiscal year 2015-2016	$	5,731
Fiscal year 2016-2017		—
Fiscal year 2017-2018		—
Total	$	5,731

During 2013, the Company and one of its surety principals entered into a contractual arrangement whereby the Company would hold collateral for use in paying future claims and expenses and upon the Company’s determination that its liability had been fully extinguished, the company would return the amount of the deposits less any paid claims or expenses. While the Company holds the collateral, the Company will pay 1.35% annual simple interest to the principal. The Company receives any appreciation and earnings in excess of the contractual deposit, less payments, and interest paid to the principal. This deposit and the earning or expenses associated with the deposit are included in the calculation of the Company’s investment income.

Note Q – Financial Instruments

Fair Value

The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate fair value of each class of financial instruments for which it is practicable to estimate that value:

Investment Securities

Fair values for investment securities (U.S. Government, government agencies, government agency mortgage-backed securities, state and municipal securities, and equity securities) held for investment purposes (available-for-sale) are based on quoted market prices or dealer quotes. If a quoted market price is not available, fair value is estimated using quoted market prices for similar securities.

F-40

Jacobs Financial Group, Inc.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

Other Financial Instruments

The carrying amount of cash, short-term investments, receivables, prepaid expenses, short-term and demand notes payable, accounts payable, accrued expenses and other liabilities approximate fair value because of the immediate or relatively short-term maturity of these financial instruments. Fair value of term notes payable, including notes payable under the bridge-financing arrangement, were deemed to approximate their carrying value based on the Company’s incremental borrowing rates for similar types of borrowings with maturities consistent with those remaining for the debt being valued.

The carrying values and fair values of the Company’s financial instruments at May 31, 2015 and 2014 are as follows:

	2015				2014
	Carrying Amount		Fair Value		Carrying Amount		Fair Value

Note R – Other Risks and Concentrations

Concentration of Credit Risk

As of May 31, 2015 the Company’s investment securities of approximately $9,400,000 are solely comprised of mortgage-backed securities, fixed maturity municipal bonds, equity investments, and money-market mutual funds that invest principally in obligations issued by the U.S government, its agencies or instrumentalities. Such instruments are generally considered to be of the highest credit quality investment available.

The Company transacts the majority of its business with three financial institutions, one for commercial banking services and the others for brokerage and custodial services. Periodically, the amount on deposit in financial institutions providing commercial banking services exceeds federally insured limits. Management believes these financial institutions are financially sound. With respect to the financial institutions providing brokerage and custodial services, amounts on deposit are invested in money market funds that invest principally in obligations issued by the U.S government, its agencies or instrumentalities.

Jacobs Financial Group, Inc.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

Management believes that substantially all receivables are collectible, and therefore has not established an allowance for estimated uncollectible accounts.

Concentration in Products, Markets and Customers

The Company’s insurance subsidiary currently writes only the surety line of business, is licensed to write surety only in West Virginia and Ohio and has focused its primary efforts towards coal permit bonds. Such business, including investment advisory fees from managed collateral accounts, accounted for approximately 54% and 66% of the Company’s fiscal 2015 and 2014 revenues, respectively. Furthermore, the Company provides surety bonds to companies that share common ownership interests that constitute 39% and 40% of the Company’s fiscal 2015 and 2014 revenues, respectively, as follows:

Note T – Related Party Transactions

Borrowing and other transactions of Largest Shareholder and CEO

For the past several years the Company’s operating expenses were partially funded by advances from its largest shareholder and chief executive officer, John M. Jacobs. The

F-43

Jacobs Financial Group, Inc.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

source of funding for these advances originated with obligations incurred by Mr. Jacobs with third parties (such obligations together with the loans by Mr. Jacobs to the Company, “back-to-back loans”) with interest rates ranging from 6% to 12%. This amount is unsecured and payable on demand.

To assure that repayments of the various borrowings by the Company that were either guaranteed by Mr. Jacobs or loaned to the Company by Mr. Jacobs via such back-to-back loan arrangements did not result in a deemed loan to Mr. Jacobs, because Mr. Jacobs entered into an Assumption Agreement with the Company. Pursuant to the assumption agreement Mr. Jacobs assumes, and agrees to hold the Company harmless from, principal of specified indebtedness of the Company and to fully offset when necessary what might otherwise be deemed an advance of funds arising out of the Company’s financing activities.

During fiscal 2015, advances to the Company from Mr. Jacobs amounted to $1,008,717, and repayments to Mr. Jacobs amounted to $1,652,037. As of May 31, 2015, the balance due from Mr. Jacobs was $633,039. The largest aggregate amount outstanding from Mr. Jacobs in fiscal 2015 was $666,262.

During fiscal 2014, advances to the Company from Mr. Jacobs amounted to $1,040,612, and repayments to Mr. Jacobs amounted to $855,019. As of May 31, 2014, the balance due Mr. Jacobs was $10,281. The largest aggregate amount outstanding to Mr. Jacobs in fiscal 2014 was $103,539.

As of June 30, 2017, $22,500 was owed to Mr. Jacobs by the Company.

The rate of interest on such amounts due from and obligations due to Mr. Jacobs was 6% and 12% respectively for both the 2015 and 2014 fiscal years.

Other related parties

During the years ended May 31, 2015 and May 31, 2014, a company owned by a board member provided consulting services. This company provided services totaling $62,100 and $62,100 in 2015 and 2014. Amounts owed to this company at year end are treated as related party payables in the amounts $169,375 and $136,775 at May 31, 2015 and 2014 respectively.

During the year ended May 31, 2015, the Company borrowed money from an individual that is a board member. Total amounts owed to this individual at May 31, 2015 consisted of $75,000 in demand notes and $1,932 in accrued interest.

Note U – Reinsurance

The Company limits the maximum net loss that can arise from large risks by reinsuring (ceding) certain levels of such risk with reinsurers. Ceded reinsurance is treated as the risk and liability of the assuming companies. The Company cedes insurance to other companies

F-44

Jacobs Financial Group, Inc.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

and these reinsurance contracts do not relieve the Company from its obligations to policyholders.

Effective April 1, 2009, FSC entered into a reinsurance agreement with various syndicates at Lloyd’s of London (“Reinsurer”) for its coal reclamation surety bonding programs. The agreement has been renewed annually with the Reinsurer, with the most recent renewal effective April 1, 2017. The reinsurance agreement is an excess of loss contract which protects the Company against losses up to certain limits over stipulated amounts and can be terminated by either party by written notice of at least 90 days prior to any July 1. The contract calls for a premium rate of 35% subject to a minimum premium of $490,000. Deposits to the reinsurers are made quarterly in arrears in equal amounts of $140,000. At May 31, 2015 and May 31, 2014, the Company had prepaid reinsurance premiums of $207,413 and $215,616 and ceded reinsurance deposited of $5,689 and $10,615.

There were no ceded Loss and Loss Adjustment Expenses for the years ended May 31, 2015 or 2014.

The effects of reinsurance on premium written and earned for fiscal 2015 and 2014 are as follows;

	2015 Written		2015 Earned		2014 Written		2014 Earned
Direct	$	1,382,725	$	1,419,049	$	1,230,079	$	1,193,586

Note V – Events Subsequent to May 31, 2015

Subsequent to May 31, 2015, the Company obtained various borrowings from individuals and businesses through June 30, 2017 totaling $2,401,630 at rates varying from 10% to 14%, which mature at various dates subsequent to this filing, and made repayments on notes in the amount of $4,461,918. These borrowings, and the renewal of other borrowings, included the issuance of 1,878,000 shares of its common stock as additional consideration. Additionally, the Company obtained borrowings of $1,412,221 from its principal shareholder and chief executive officer under a pre-approved financing arrangement bearing interest at the rate of 12% and made repayments totaling $1,322,539. After taking into account the net accrued payroll owed, reimbursement of company expenses, and the personal assumption of Company debt that is to be offset against these borrowings, the balance owed to the principal shareholder from the Company is $22,500 at June 30, 2017.

The Company elected to continue to defer payment of quarterly dividends on its Series A Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred Stock, and Series C Preferred Stock with such accumulated accrued and unpaid dividends amounting to $1,350,832, $4,175,512 and $10,027,907 as of June 30, 2017.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

The Company issued 11,956,049 Common shares representing the additional 2% stock dividend for the quarters ending December 31, 2014, through June 30, 2015 to the holders of Series A and B Preferred shares that had requested to be redeemed upon maturity (see Note J). ). Subsequent to June 30, 2015, the practice of issuing the 2% dividend was suspended.

On August 5, 2015 the Company completed a $1,600,000 transaction which resulted in its acquisition of the remaining 49.3% ($1.725 million face amount) of the outstanding senior promissory notes comprising part of a $3.5 million Bridge financing dating from 2008, together with interest accrued thereon. The notes representing the $1.775 million balance of this financing (together with accrued interest) had been acquired by an affiliate in July 2014. The entire issue of senior promissory notes had been in default. Upon closing of the acquisition, the collateral securing the senior promissory notes, 1,000 shares (100%) of FSC and 1,000 shares (100%) of CMW, was released to the Company. The transaction was funded through a sale in a private offering of investment units (Units) that consisted of 5% of the outstanding shares of FSC and 500,000 common shares of the Company per Unit. $1,600,000 was raised through a combination of cash, partial assignments of loans back to the Company that were debt of the Company and loans that are convertible into purchase of Units. The Registrant’s Board of Directors has authorized the sale of up to nine Units, which, if completed, would include forty-five percent (45%) of the outstanding stock of FSC. This initial sale of 2 investment Units resulted in 10% of FSC being sold, and the accompanying issuance of 1,000,000 shares of common stock of the Company.

On September 25, 2016 the Registrant sold 15.00% interest in First Surety Corporation for $1,500,000 through a combination of cash and a Promissory Note secured by assignment of debt payable by the Registrant. The purchase was approved by the West Virginia Office of the Insurance Commissioner in compliance with insurance regulations requiring approval when exceeding 10.00% ownership. The purchaser is also a Related Party of the Registrant, exceeding 10% common stock ownership. This sale also resulted in the issuance of 1,500,000 shares of common stock of the Company.

On March 17, 2017 the Registrant sold 5.00% interest in First Surety Corporation for $500,000. This sale also resulted in the issuance of 500,000 shares of common stock of the Company.

Disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time frames specified in SEC rules and forms and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.

During the evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures as of May 31, 2015, control deficiencies were identified that constitute a material weakness in internal control over financial reporting. Such control deficiencies relate to the use of internally developed non-integrated accounting systems, lack of internal review of account reconciliations, and lack of internal review of general journal entries, elimination entries and the financial statement consolidation process. As a result, JFG’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that as of May 31, 2015, JFG’s disclosure controls and procedures were ineffective. Changes will be considered as additional financial resources and accounting staff become available.

Notwithstanding the above, JFG believes the consolidated financial statements in this Annual Report on Form 10-K fairly present, in all material respects, JFG’s financial condition as of May 31, 2015 and 2014, and the results of its operations and cash flows for the years ended May 31, 2015 and 2014 in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP).

Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

Management of JFG is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. JFG’s internal control over financial reporting is a process under the supervision of JFG’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of JFG’s financial statements for external purposes in accordance with GAAP.

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

subject to risk that controls may become inadequate because of change in conditions, or the degree of compliance with the policies and procedures may deteriorate.

JFG management conducted an assessment of the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of May 31, 2015. In making this assessment, management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) in Internal Control – Integrated Framework issued in 1992. Based on this assessment, management concluded that the Company’s internal control over financial reporting was not effective as of May 31, 2015. A material weakness is a control deficiency, or combination of control deficiencies, that results in more than a remote likelihood that a material misstatement of our annual or interim financial statements would not be prevented or detected.

JFG management identified control deficiencies that, in the aggregate, constitute a material weakness in internal control over financial reporting as of May 31, 2015. Such control deficiencies relate to the use of internally developed non-integrated accounting systems, lack of internal review of account reconciliations, and lack of internal review of general journal entries, elimination entries and the financial statement consolidation process.

Changes are to be considered as additional financial resources and accounting staff become available. Management believes that overall controls over financial reporting are in place, but are not, at this time, sufficient to effectively mitigate this material weakness.

This annual 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 exemption rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission that permit the company to provide only management’s report in this annual report.

CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS AND DIRECTOR INDEPENDENCE

For the past several years the Company’s operating expenses were partially funded by advances from its largest shareholder and chief executive officer, John M. Jacobs. The source of funding for these advances originated with obligations incurred by Mr. Jacobs with third parties (such obligations together with the loans by Mr. Jacobs to the Company, “back-to-back loans”) with interest rates ranging from 6.75% to 12%.

To assure that repayments of the various borrowings by the Company that were either guaranteed by Mr. Jacobs or loaned to the Company by Mr. Jacobs via such back-to-back loan arrangements did not result in a deemed loan to Mr. Jacobs, Mr. Jacobs entered into an Assumption Agreement with the Company, pursuant to which Mr. Jacobs assumes and agrees to hold the Company harmless from principal of specified indebtedness of the Company as and when necessary to fully

offset what might otherwise be deemed an advance of funds arising out of the Company’s financing activities.

During fiscal 2015, advances to the Company from Mr. Jacobs amounted to $1,652,037, and repayments to Mr. Jacobs amounted to $1,008,717. As of May 31, 2015, the balance due to the Company from Mr. Jacobs was $633,069. The largest aggregate amount outstanding from Mr. Jacobs in fiscal 2015 was $666,262.

During fiscal 2014, advances to the Company from Mr. Jacobs amounted to $1,040,612 and repayments to Mr. Jacobs amounted to $855,019. As of May 31, 2014, the balance due to Mr. Jacobs from the Company was $10,281. The largest aggregate amount outstanding to Mr. Jacobs in fiscal 2014 was $103,539.

The rate of interest on such amounts due from and obligations due to Mr. Jacobs was 6% and 12% respectively for both the 2015 and 2014 fiscal years.

As of June 30, 2017, $22,500 was owed to Mr. Jacobs by the Company.

Director’s Independence

The board of directors is comprised of four members, John M. Jacobs, Bradley W. Tuckwiller, Mario J. Marra and C. David Thomas. Mr. John M. Jacobs, who serves as Chief Executive Officer for the Company and Bradley W Tuckwiller, who is owed fees for consulting services, are not independent within the meaning of The Nasdaq Stock Market, Inc. listing standards.

There were no transactions, relationships or arrangements with Mr. Marra or Mr. Thomas that would affect their independence.

Item 14.

PRINCIPAL ACCOUNTING FEES AND SERVICES

Our independent registered public accounting firm, EKS&H LLLP, billed $65,000 and $75,000 for their audits of our financial statements for the fiscal years ended May 31, 2015 audit 2014, respectively. The firm did not provide any audit-related, tax or non-audit services for either fiscal 2014 or 2013.

We do not have an audit committee and as a result our board of directors performs the duties of an audit committee. Our board of directors evaluates the scope and cost of the engagement of an auditor before the auditor renders any audit or non-audit services.
