(New York, NY — other health care — 2024; $100M reported sold to 9 investors) and COPYTELE INC (Melville, NY — other technology — 2013; $3.5M reported sold to 20 investors).

What this means 2 separate companies raised money with this person listed as director, over about 11 years. Across those companies the filings report $103.5M sold in total.

Listed alongside Bruce Johnson (3 shared filings), Henry P. Herms (3 shared filings), John Roop (3 shared filings), Kent B. Williams (3 shared filings), Lewis H. Titterton, Jr. (3 shared filings) and 5 others.

What this means These are the other officers, directors or promoters the companies named on the same forms — the team around Amit. Each name links to their own page.

1 of the issuers belongs to the sponsor group Ars (104 issuers, $9.21B reported sold, 2010–2026).

What this means A sponsor group is one team that sets up a new company for each deal. Ars has 104 companies on file and $9.21B reported sold in total — the group page shows the whole track record in one place.

Public records searched: federal courts (CourtListener / RECAP), SEC enforcement releases, state securities regulators (AK, AL, AR, AZ, CA, CT, DE, FINRA, GA, HI, ID, IL, KS, KY, LA, MA, MD, ME, MI, MO, MS, MT, NASAA, NC, ND, NH, NM, NV, OK, OR, PA, RI, SC, SD, TN, TX, VT, WA, WI, WV, WY) — 1 court case matching the name, 5 bankruptcy cases matching the name listed in Key records below.

What this means 6 records came back, including 1 court case still open — open cases can take years and cost money. 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 Amit Kumar, PhD and found 7 differences, 1 worth asking the sponsor about: Bankruptcy case: Amit Kumar; 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

Comparisons cover issuers and sponsor groups — see the issuer pages under Deals

7 differences found between the filings for Amit Kumar, PhD — 1 worth asking about (compared 4 filings on Oct 24, 2026)

Worth asking · Jun 27, 2011 – Oct 5, 2011

Bankruptcy case: Amit Kumar — filed Jun 27, 2011

United States Bankruptcy Court, E.D. New York docket "Amit Kumar" filed Jun 27, 2011, closed Oct 5, 2011. Amit Kumar, PhD is listed as Debtor ("Amit Kumar"). Our match estimate: 44%.

What this means A bankruptcy filing was found. Many are old or personal and have nothing to do with the deal — but ask what it was and when it closed.

Note · Nov 22, 2013

Amit Kumar, PhD appears on 1 deal that stopped filing before reaching its target

COPYTELE INC (last filing Nov 22, 2013; $3,500,000 sold of $10,000,000). Each has no filing in more than two years and reported under half its target sold.

What this means An issuer whose last filing is more than two years old and reported under half its target sold. The raise may have closed early or quietly stopped. Ask what happened to each.

COPYTELE INC — PartnerFacts page ↗
Sources
Note · Apr 23, 2013 – May 2, 2013

No amendment in the last 12 months on an offering that may still be open — COPYTELE INC (latest filing May 2, 2013)

The latest filing for this offering is dated May 2, 2013 (first sale Apr 23, 2013). It reports $500,000 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.

Form D · May 2, 2013 ↗COPYTELE INC — PartnerFacts page ↗

Note · Feb 4, 2013 – Jul 31, 2024

Amit Kumar, PhD is written 2 different ways on the filings

listed as "Amit Kumar, PhD" on 3 filings (from Feb 4, 2013), and "Amit Kumar" on the Jul 31, 2024 filing.

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.

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 every filing this person is listed on (latest filing per offering, per issuer).
