The short version

Chris Transier is listed as an executive officer and director on 6 SEC Form D filings by 6 issuers between Jun 2021 and Aug 2025. Largest by amount reported sold: Emory Peak Holdings V, LLC (Houston, TX — oil and gas — 2025; $298.1M reported sold to 6 investors), Emory Peak Holdings, LLC (Houston, TX — oil and gas — 2021; $125.3M reported sold to 5 investors), Emory Peak Holdings II, LLC (Houston, TX — oil and gas — 2024; $120.2M reported sold to 7 investors), Emory Peak Holdings VI, LLC (Houston, TX — oil and gas — 2025; $106.2M reported sold to 7 investors), Emory Peak Holdings IV, LLC (Houston, TX — oil and gas — 2024; $90.1M reported sold to 6 investors) and 1 more (all listed below).

What this means A repeat sponsor — 6 separate companies raised money with this person listed as executive officer and director, over about 4 years. Across those companies the filings report $799.9M sold in total.

Listed alongside Brad Wright (6 shared filings), Christine Hommes (6 shared filings), Wilson Handler (6 shared filings), David Schonian (5 shared filings), Jordan White (5 shared filings) and 2 others.

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

All 6 issuers belong to the sponsor group Emory Peak (6 issuers, $799.9M reported sold, 2021–2025).

What this means A sponsor group is one team that sets up a new company for each deal. Emory Peak has 6 companies on file and $799.9M 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 (AZ, CA, DE, TX, WA) — 2 bankruptcy cases matching the name listed in Key records below.

What this means 2 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 6 public filings for Chris Transier and found 1 difference: 6 offerings have no amendment in the last 12 months and may still be open.

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

1 difference found between the filings for Chris Transier (compared 6 filings on Oct 24, 2026)

Note · Jun 4, 2021 – Aug 22, 2025

6 offerings have no amendment in the last 12 months and may still be open

No amendment in the last 12 months on an offering that may still be open — Emory Peak Holdings VI, LLC (latest filing Aug 22, 2025) · No amendment in the last 12 months on an offering that may still be open — Emory Peak Holdings V, LLC (latest filing Jul 1, 2025) · No amendment in the last 12 months on an offering that may still be open — Emory Peak Holdings IV, LLC (latest filing Oct 18, 2024) · No amendment in the last 12 months on an offering that may still be open — Emory Peak Holdings III, LLC (latest filing Jan 16, 2024) · No amendment in the last 12 months on an offering that may still be open — Emory Peak Holdings II, LLC (latest filing Jan 5, 2024) · and 1 more

What this means SEC rules expect a yearly amendment while an offering is still going. Ask the sponsor which of these raises have closed.

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.
