The short version

David Macias is listed as an executive officer, director, and promoter on 7 SEC Form D filings by 3 issuers between Nov 2011 and Jun 2022: Hydro Alternative Energy, Inc. (West Palm Beach, FL — other energy — 2011; $854K reported sold to 24 investors), UPOWER, INC. (Boca Raton, FL — other energy — 2013–2018; $378K reported sold to 10 investors) and Li3 Group, Inc. (Boca Raton, FL — other energy — 2022).

What this means A repeat sponsor — 3 separate companies raised money with this person listed as executive officer, director, and promoter, over about 11 years. Across those companies the filings report $1.23M sold in total.

Listed alongside Enrico Marotta (3 shared filings), Enrique Pallares (3 shared filings), Lisandro Flores (2 shared filings), Holly Landau (1 shared filing), Joel Haas (1 shared filing) and 7 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.

2 of the issuers belong to the sponsor group Upower (2 issuers, $0 reported sold, 2013–2022).

What this means A sponsor group is one team that sets up a new company for each deal. Upower has 2 companies on file and $0 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, 40 bankruptcy cases matching the name listed in Key records below.

What this means 41 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 7 public filings for David Macias and found 15 differences, 8 worth asking the sponsor about: WA securities regulator consent order naming a team member (Feb 20, 2015); WA securities regulator statement of charges naming a team member (Jun 29, 2012); 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.

David Macias appears on 3 deals that stopped filing before reaching their target

Li3 Group, Inc. (last filing Jun 1, 2022; $0 sold of $10,000,000); UPOWER, INC. (last filing Mar 13, 2018; $378,000 sold of $25,000,000); Hydro Alternative Energy, Inc. (last filing Aug 20, 2012; $853,500 sold of $15,750,000). Each has no filing in more than two years and reported under half its target sold.

Note · Feb 3, 2014 – Apr 17, 2014

No amendment in the last 12 months on an offering that may still be open — UPOWER, INC. (latest filing Apr 17, 2014)

The latest filing for this offering is dated Apr 17, 2014 (first sale Feb 3, 2014). It reports $378,000 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.

Worth asking · Nov 4, 2011 – Nov 8, 2011

David Macias is no longer listed on the Nov 8, 2011 amendment — Hydro Alternative Energy, Inc.

David Macias appears on the Nov 4, 2011 Form D (executive officer) but not on the Nov 8, 2011 Form D/A for the same offering.

What this means People leave, and the issuer must list only current officers, directors and promoters. It is still worth asking why this person left and who replaced them.

Sources
Note · Feb 4, 2014 – Apr 17, 2014

David Macias's role changed at UPOWER, INC.: promoter → executive officer, director, promoter

The Feb 4, 2014 filing lists David Macias as promoter; the Apr 17, 2014 Form D/A lists executive officer, director, promoter.

What this means Roles on Form D are self-reported by the issuer. A change can mean a real change in who runs the company, or just a different box ticked. Ask who makes decisions today.

Note · Apr 17, 2014 – Sep 29, 2017

Address moved from West Palm Beach, FL to Boca Raton, FL — UPOWER, INC.

The people listed on the Apr 17, 2014 filing give West Palm Beach, FL; on the Sep 29, 2017 filing they give Boca Raton, FL.

What this means Businesses move; this just shows the two places and dates. If you were told one city and the forms say another, ask which is current.

Sources
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).
