The short version

DAVID CATES is listed as a director on 12 SEC Form D filings by 2 issuers between Aug 2016 and Jan 2025: GoviEx Uranium Inc. (Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada (as filed: A1) — industry reported as "Other" — 2020–2024; $3.94M reported sold to 98 investors) and SKYHARBOUR RESOURCES LTD (Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada (as filed: A1) — industry reported as "Other" — 2016–2025; $449K reported sold to 29 investors).

What this means 2 separate companies raised money with this person listed as director, over about 9 years. Across those companies the filings report $4.39M sold in total.

Listed alongside AMANDA B. CHOW (8 shared filings), DONALD C HUSTON (8 shared filings), JAMES G PETTIT (8 shared filings), JORDAN C TRIMBLE (8 shared filings), RICHARD KUSMIRSKI (7 shared filings) and 15 others.

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

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) — 1 court case matching the name, 19 bankruptcy cases matching the name listed in Key records below.

What this means 20 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 12 public filings for DAVID CATES and found 4 differences: Form D filed 18 days after the first sale; Form D filed 43 days after the first sale; 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.

Court records show docket facts only; we never restate allegations as facts. Outcome wording comes from the docket feed; where it does not state a disposition we say so.

State courts: not covered (one-tap state court links under Look further). No state offers a lawful automated statewide source PartnerFacts can use today. Texas (re:SearchTX) terms prohibit storing results in a database open to third parties; New York (WebCivil) and Massachusetts (MassCourts) require a browser check that blocks scripted queries; California has no statewide index (58 county portals; Rule of Court 2.503 grants name-based access case by case); Florida, Utah and Illinois offer paid or partial access whose terms for automated use are unverified. Washington (dw.courts.wa.gov; bulk index reports under a JISC data-dissemination agreement), Delaware (CourtConnect; Court of Chancery not included) and Arizona (apps.azcourts.gov/publicaccess, which has an official channel to request high-volume access) are the candidates; PartnerFacts will request written permission before any automated search.

4. Differences between public sources

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

4 differences found between the filings for DAVID CATES (compared 12 filings on Oct 24, 2026)

Note · Nov 29, 2019 – Dec 17, 2019

Form D filed 18 days after the first sale — SKYHARBOUR RESOURCES LTD

The filing says the first sale was Nov 29, 2019. The Form D was filed Dec 17, 2019 — 18 days later. The rule: a Form D is generally due within 15 days after the first sale, so this one is 3 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 · Aug 2, 2018 – Sep 14, 2018

Form D filed 43 days after the first sale — SKYHARBOUR RESOURCES LTD

The filing says the first sale was Aug 2, 2018. The Form D was filed Sep 14, 2018 — 43 days later. The rule: a Form D is generally due within 15 days after the first sale, so this one is 28 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.

10 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 — SKYHARBOUR RESOURCES LTD (latest filing Jan 2, 2025) · No amendment in the last 12 months on an offering that may still be open — GoviEx Uranium Inc. (latest filing Jan 2, 2024) · No amendment in the last 12 months on an offering that may still be open — GoviEx Uranium Inc. (latest filing May 22, 2023) · No amendment in the last 12 months on an offering that may still be open — GoviEx Uranium Inc. (latest filing Aug 13, 2020) · No amendment in the last 12 months on an offering that may still be open — SKYHARBOUR RESOURCES LTD (latest filing May 14, 2020) · and 5 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.

Note · Jun 27, 2013 – Jun 12, 2018

Same name, different state: "David Cates" (A6) is a separate record

This page covers filings where the address state is A1. A separate record, "David Cates" with address state A6, is listed on 3 filings — most recently by Uranium Participation Corp (Jun 12, 2018). Both records have filings in the same period (Aug 25, 2016 to Jun 12, 2018).

What this means Two records with one name were active at the same time. That can be one person listing different company addresses, or two different people. We keep them apart until a filing ties them together. Check both pages before you decide.

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.

5. Money to insiders

2 of 11 offerings report sales commissions totalling $171,777; 3 report finder's fees totalling $7,516; 0 report proceeds to related persons. (includes amounts the issuer reported as estimates)

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).

Deals 2

Every issuer that named David Cates on a Form D, newest first. A Form D is the notice a company files after it starts selling a private investment.

The team behind the deals

Same business address

8 other issuers file from the same address

A shared address can mean the same team, a shared office building or a registered agent. It is a lead, not a conclusion.

Registrations and other filings

Business registration (state registry / Secretary of State)

Individuals are not matched to business registrations — registries list companies, and a name alone is not enough to tie a person to one. Officers and managers appear by name inside each matched company's record on the issuer pages. 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).

Adviser registration (Form ADV)

None of the 2 issuers this person is listed on appears in Form ADV (searched 24,962 advisers as of Oct 2, 2026). A person is never an adviser firm; Form ADV is checked for the issuers and the management companies they are listed with.

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.

Property records none — individuals are not matched

Property records are matched to companies only, never to individuals, so none are matched to DAVID CATES by design. Searched property records in Hillsborough County FL (Clerk recorded-document index Oct 14, 2026 to Oct 15, 2026 + FL DOR 2026 ownership roll), Miami-Dade County FL (FL DOR 2026 ownership roll), Harris County TX (HCAD 2026 ownership roll), Dallas County TX (DCAD 2026 ownership roll), New York City ACRIS documents and PLUTO ownership rows already retrieved for other issuers, Cook County IL sale and ownership rows already retrieved for other issuers (814,874 records as of Oct 23, 2026, 8:59 PM ET) for the 2 issuers this person is listed on — nothing matched.

Public profiles and social
