The short version

Newport is a sponsor group of 2 issuers that PartnerFacts links to one sponsor (shared people, same business address, similar issuer names; automatic match from the filings), filing 4 Form D filings between Mar 2013 and Mar 2019.

What this means One team, 2 deal companies, about 6 years of track record in SEC filings. We link the companies because the same people or address appear on their forms — tap "Request a correction" if that is wrong.

Combined reported sold: $6M to 25 investors (latest filing per issuer). Industries as reported: Investing (2). Issuers are based in CA (2).

What this means $6M raised across the group, about $240K per investor. Amounts come from each company's latest Form D; they are what the sponsor reported, not audited figures.

Principal people: Charles Doyle Koeller (2 issuers, executive officer).

What this means The person on the most companies is usually the one running the show; their page lists every deal.

Activity: 0 new offerings in the last 12 months; latest filing Mar 12, 2019.

What this means No new raise filed in the past year.

Public records searched: federal courts (CourtListener / RECAP), SEC enforcement releases, state securities regulators (AZ, CA, DE, TX, WA), property records (NYC, FL, IL and TX counties) — 3 court cases matching the name, 4 bankruptcy cases matching the name listed in Key records below.

What this means 7 records came back. Each one is listed below with a link to the original document and a line saying why it matched. A name match is not proof it is the same person or company — read the why line and the document. Being sued or named in a release is an accusation, not a finding.

We compared 4 public filings for Newport and found 7 differences, 2 worth asking the sponsor about: Form D filed 249 days after the first sale; Form D filed 146 days after the first sale; and more below.

What this means These are differences between the sponsor's own SEC filings — both values, dates and sources are listed in Key records, section 4. Most have ordinary explanations; ask the sponsor.

4. Differences between public sources

No comparisons published

What is compared

No public statement by this sponsor group has been collected yet, so there is nothing to compare. Sources compared: the sponsor's own website (known from the issuer's own filings — Form C issuer website, EDGAR company profile — an approved profile claim or Form ADV Item 1.I of its matched adviser) · SEC Form D · SEC Form ADV (IAPD) · Internet Archive · No website is on file for this sponsor group yet.

7 differences found between the filings for Newport — 2 worth asking about (compared 4 filings on Oct 24, 2026)

Worth asking · Jul 6, 2018 – Mar 12, 2019

Form D filed 249 days after the first sale — Newport Growth Fund LLC

The filing says the first sale was Jul 6, 2018. The Form D was filed Mar 12, 2019 — 249 days later. The rule: a Form D is generally due within 15 days after the first sale, so this one is 234 days past that.

What this means The notice went in months after money was taken in. Late notices are common and carry no penalty by themselves, but it is fair to ask the sponsor why the paperwork lagged.

Worth asking · Oct 23, 2012 – Mar 18, 2013

Form D filed 146 days after the first sale — Newport Investments Fund LLC

The filing says the first sale was Oct 23, 2012. The Form D was filed Mar 18, 2013 — 146 days later. The rule: a Form D is generally due within 15 days after the first sale, so this one is 131 days past that.

What this means A late notice is common and carries no penalty by itself. It is worth asking the sponsor why the paperwork lagged.

Note · Mar 19, 2013 – Apr 7, 2014

Offering amount changed between filings — Newport Investments Fund LLC

The Mar 19, 2013 filing says $10,000,000 offered; the Apr 7, 2014 Form D/A says $20,000,000.

What this means The target raise changed. Raising the cap is common when a deal grows; ask whether the extra money has the same terms and use.

Note · Jul 6, 2018 – Mar 12, 2019

No amendment in the last 12 months on an offering that may still be open — Newport Growth Fund LLC (latest filing Mar 12, 2019)

The latest filing for this offering is dated Mar 12, 2019 (first sale Jul 6, 2018). It reports $1,000,000 sold of $10,000,000 offered. No later amendment is in our index as of Oct 24, 2026.

What this means SEC rules expect a yearly amendment while an offering is still going. The raise may simply have ended — a Form D does not say when it closed. Ask the sponsor whether the offering closed, when, and at what amount.

What this means This is the size band the issuer picks for itself on the form. A change can mean the business grew or shrank — or that it chose not to say. Ask for current numbers.

What is compared

What is compared: every Form D and D/A we hold for this subject, side by side — filing dates vs. first-sale dates (the 15-day rule), amendment timing on open offerings (the yearly-amendment expectation), amounts sold, investor counts, offering amounts and minimums across amendments, industry and size bands, addresses, how each person's name and role is written, paid sellers' CRD numbers, and (for groups) where the member companies were formed and sit. Everything is as filed by the issuer; the SEC does not check it. Differences are common and usually have ordinary explanations — we show both values, the dates, and the source so you can ask. As of Oct 24, 2026.
