The short version

Cole Arledge is listed as an executive officer and director on 10 SEC Form D filings by 4 issuers between Nov 2022 and Jun 2025: NXSTEP OPPORTUNITY PARTNERS FUND, L.P. (Austin, TX — pooled investment fund — 2023; $95.1M reported sold to 108 investors), NXSTEP Opportunity Partners AI Fund, L.P. (Austin, TX — pooled investment fund — 2023; $5.69M reported sold to 25 investors), Organicare Nature's Science, LLC (Austin, TX — other health care — 2022; $4.55M reported sold to 25 investors) and NOP ESC Co-Invest, LP (Austin, TX — pooled investment fund — 2025; $3.58M reported sold to 9 investors).

What this means A repeat sponsor — 4 separate companies raised money with this person listed as executive officer and director, over about 3 years. Across those companies the filings report $108.9M sold in total.

Listed alongside Christopher Earthman (9 shared filings), NXSTEP Opportunity Partners Fund GP, LLC (9 shared filings, management entity), R.W. McDonald (9 shared filings), ANNE SMALLING (1 shared filing), Caroline Goodner (1 shared filing) and 4 others.

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

3 of the issuers belong to the sponsor group Nxstep (3 issuers, $104.4M reported sold, 2023–2025).

What this means A sponsor group is one team that sets up a new company for each deal. Nxstep has 3 companies on file and $104.4M 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) — 22 court cases matching the name, 6 bankruptcy cases matching the name listed in Key records below.

What this means 28 records came back, including 2 court cases 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 10 public filings for Cole Arledge and found 2 differences: Form D filed 36 days after the first sale; 4 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

2 differences found between the filings for Cole Arledge (compared 10 filings on Oct 24, 2026)

Note · Mar 20, 2023 – Apr 25, 2023

Form D filed 36 days after the first sale — NXSTEP Opportunity Partners AI Fund, L.P.

The filing says the first sale was Mar 20, 2023. The Form D was filed Apr 25, 2023 — 36 days later. The rule: a Form D is generally due within 15 days after the first sale, so this one is 21 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.

Sources
Note · Feb 23, 2023 – Jun 13, 2025

4 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 — NOP ESC Co-Invest, LP (latest filing Jun 13, 2025) · No amendment in the last 12 months on an offering that may still be open — NXSTEP Opportunity Partners AI Fund, L.P. (latest filing Jul 5, 2023) · No amendment in the last 12 months on an offering that may still be open — NXSTEP OPPORTUNITY PARTNERS FUND, L.P. (latest filing Jul 5, 2023) · No amendment in the last 12 months on an offering that may still be open — NXSTEP Opportunity Partners AI Fund, L.P. (latest filing Apr 25, 2023)

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.
