The short version

Criterion is a sponsor group of 18 issuers that PartnerFacts links to one sponsor (shared people, shared management entity, same business address, similar issuer names, shared principal (person on 60+ issuers) at the same address or management entity; automatic match from the filings), filing 94 Form D filings between Mar 2009 and Nov 2021.

What this means One team, 18 deal companies, about 12 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: $2.47B to 453 investors (latest filing per issuer). Industries as reported: Pooled Investment Fund (16), Manufacturing (1), Biotechnology (1). Issuers are based in CA (13), Cayman Islands (as filed: E9) (5).

What this means $2.47B raised across the group, about $5.45M per investor. Amounts come from each company's latest Form D; they are what the sponsor reported, not audited figures.

Principal people: John Micek, III (9 issuers, executive officer and director), Zachariah Stout (9 issuers, executive officer and director), Criterion Capital Management, LLC (8 issuers, executive officer and promoter, entity), Christopher H. Lord (7 issuers, executive officer, director, and promoter), David Riley (6 issuers, executive officer) and 27 more.

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 Nov 4, 2021.

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

Public records searched: federal courts (CourtListener / RECAP), SEC enforcement releases, state securities regulators (AK, AL, AR, AZ, CA, CO, CT, DC, DE, FINRA, FL, GA, HI, ID, IL, KS, KY, LA, MA, MD, ME, MI, MO, MS, MT, NASAA, NC, ND, NH, NM, NV, NY, OH, OK, OR, PA, RI, SC, SD, TN, TX, UT, VT, WA, WI, WV, WY), property records (NYC, FL, IL and TX counties) — 15 court cases matching the name, 1 SEC release listed in Key records below.

What this means 16 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 the newest 50 of 94 public filings for Criterion and found 19 differences, 7 worth asking the sponsor about: Regulator action naming a team member: Enova Systems, Inc. (Sep 7, 2022); Criterion includes 5 deals that stopped filing before reaching their target; 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.

The filing says the first sale was Mar 1, 2011. The Form D was filed Nov 6, 2014 — 1,346 days later. The rule: a Form D is generally due within 15 days after the first sale, so this one is 1,331 days past that.

2 separate companies in this group use the same name: "Criterion Software & Security Opportunities Fund, L.P."

CIK 1639445 (first filed Apr 15, 2015, San Francisco, CA); CIK 1639363 (first filed May 12, 2015, Grand Cayman, Cayman Islands (as filed: E9)).

Member companies were formed in 3 different states

Delaware (11), Cayman Islands (5), California (2) — out of 18 member issuers. The odd ones out: CRITERION CAPITAL PARTNERS L P (California); Criterion Capital Partners Ltd. (Cayman Islands); Criterion Horizons Offshore, Ltd. (Cayman Islands); Criterion Capital Partners BP Ltd. (Cayman Islands); Criterion Vista Offshore, Ltd. (Cayman Islands); Criterion Software & Security Opportunities Fund, Ltd. (Cayman Islands).

What this means Sponsors often form each deal company in Delaware or Wyoming no matter where the property is. A mix is common; it just tells you which state's rules each company lives under.

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. We compared the newest 50 of 94 filings (work cap); older filings are not covered here. As of Oct 24, 2026.

How this is counted

Counts come from Form D Items 12–15 on the filings in our index (latest filing per offering; one offering = one SEC file number; an amendment updates its offering rather than adding one). "To insiders" = gross proceeds used for payments to executive officers, directors or promoters. "—" = not reported on that filing. Amounts marked (est.) were reported as estimates. "Paid to sell it" = sales compensation recipients named on that filing (Item 12), each linked to FINRA BrokerCheck when a CRD number is reported.

Counted across all 18 issuers in this group — every filing in our index, latest filing per offering (SEC file number).

Business registration (state registry / Secretary of State)

None of the 18 issuers has a record in the registries searched.

Registries searched: AL (Alabama Secretary of State — Business Entity Records (arc-sos.state.al.us), searched by issuer name, data as of Oct 24, 2026); CO (Colorado Secretary of State — Business Entities in Colorado (data.colorado.gov), data as of Oct 23, 2026); CT (Connecticut Secretary of the State — Business Registry (data.ct.gov), data as of Oct 24, 2026); FL (Florida Department of State, Division of Corporations — quarterly corporate data file (Sunbiz), data as of Oct 7, 2026); NY (New York Department of State — Corporations and Other Entities (data.ny.gov: All Filings + Active Corporations), data as of Oct 20, 2026); OR (Oregon Secretary of State — Active Businesses, All (data.oregon.gov), data as of Oct 20, 2026); PA (Pennsylvania Department of State — Registered Businesses, Current (data.pa.gov), data as of Oct 6, 2026); TX (Texas Comptroller — Active Franchise Taxpayers incl. Secretary of State file data (data.texas.gov), data as of Oct 24, 2026). Registries of other states have not been searched: many publish no bulk file and require a CAPTCHA or bot challenge on their search page, which we do not bypass (Delaware, for example, offers no public bulk file). A registry listing is the state's own record of the entity; it says nothing about the offering itself.

Adviser registration (Form ADV)

Searched SEC Form ADV bulk data (registered + exempt reporting advisers) (24,962 records as of Oct 2, 2026, 8:00 AM ET) — nothing matched Criterion.

Meta advertising

No Meta Pixel ids or Facebook / Instagram page links on file for Criterion as of Oct 24, 2026 — the sponsor website is read for them once it is on file (runs automatically). Meta Ad Library: not searched by PartnerFacts (no API access); a one-tap Ad Library search is under Look further.

Other offering types (Regulation A and Regulation Crowdfunding)

Searched SEC Regulation A Data Sets (Forms 1-A, 1-K, 1-Z; 2015 Q2 → 2026 Q3); SEC Crowdfunding Offerings Data Sets (Form C family; 2016 Q2 → 2026 Q3); EDGAR form index for 2026 Q3 → 2026 Q4 (51,358 records as of Oct 23, 2026, 8:41 PM ET) — nothing matched this name.

Public profiles and social

No website or social profile named in Criterion's SEC filings (Form C, Reg A, Form ADV; checked Oct 24, 2026). Web search for this name: #258,124 of 374,652 in line (1,386 issuers searched so far). One-tap searches: Look further ↓
