The short version

CHARLES BROWN is listed as an executive officer and director on 4 SEC Form D filings by 2 issuers between Nov 2017 and May 2023: Hardwoods Holdings, LLC (Frisco, TX — industry reported as "Other" — 2022–2023; $16.3M reported sold to 13 investors) and SYNTHESIS ENERGY SYSTEMS INC (Houston, TX — other energy — 2017; $8M reported sold to 16 investors).

What this means 2 separate companies raised money with this person listed as executive officer and director, over about 6 years. Across those companies the filings report $24.3M sold in total.

Listed alongside Armand Lauzon (2 shared filings), Christopher Johnson (2 shared filings), DAVID HISCOCKS (2 shared filings), DELOME FAIR (2 shared filings), DENIS SLAVICH (2 shared filings) and 18 others.

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

Public records searched: federal courts (CourtListener / RECAP), SEC enforcement releases, state securities regulators (AZ, CA, DE, TX, WA) — 1 SEC release, 16 bankruptcy cases matching the name listed in Key records below.

What this means 17 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 CHARLES BROWN and found 10 differences, 1 worth asking the sponsor about: Paid seller listed without a CRD number: T.R. WINSTON & COMPANY; 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.

10 differences found between the filings for CHARLES BROWN — 1 worth asking about (compared 4 filings on Oct 24, 2026)

Worth asking · Nov 14, 2017 – Nov 15, 2017

Paid seller listed without a CRD number: T.R. WINSTON & COMPANY — SYNTHESIS ENERGY SYSTEMS INC

T.R. WINSTON & COMPANY is listed as receiving sales compensation on 2 filings (Nov 14, 2017 to Nov 15, 2017) with no FINRA CRD number given.

What this means People paid to sell securities normally hold a FINRA registration with a CRD number. Without one we cannot look them up on BrokerCheck. Ask who they are and whether they are registered.

Form D filed 21 days after the first sale — SYNTHESIS ENERGY SYSTEMS INC

The filing says the first sale was Oct 24, 2017. The Form D was filed Nov 14, 2017 — 21 days later. The rule: a Form D is generally due within 15 days after the first sale, so this one is 6 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.

The Nov 14, 2017 filing says $7,375,022 offered; the Nov 15, 2017 Form D/A says $8,000,000.

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.

No amendment in the last 12 months on an offering that may still be open — Hardwoods Holdings, LLC (latest filing May 31, 2023)

The latest filing for this offering is dated May 31, 2023 (first sale May 5, 2021). It reports $16,261,536 sold of an indefinite amount 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 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.

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