The short version

Edward Roffman is listed as a director on 10 SEC Form D filings by 1 issuer between Apr 2013 and Sep 2018: Icagen, Inc. (Durham, NC — pharmaceuticals — 2013–2018; $8.86M reported sold to 162 investors).

What this means One deal on file with the SEC. A Form D is the notice a company files after it starts selling a private investment — it is a notice, not an approval.

Listed alongside Clive Kabatznik (8 shared filings), Mark Korb (8 shared filings), Michael N. Taglich (8 shared filings), Richard Cunningham (8 shared filings), Timothy Tyson (8 shared filings) and 4 others.

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

The issuer belongs to the sponsor group Icagen (2 issuers, $15.3M reported sold, 2011–2018).

What this means A sponsor group is one team that sets up a new company for each deal. Icagen has 2 companies on file and $15.3M 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) — none found.

What this means Nothing turned up where we looked (3 sources). That does not prove there is nothing — it means none was found in those sources on that date.

We compared 10 public filings for Edward Roffman and found 10 differences: Form D filed 16 days after the first sale; Offering amount changed between filings; 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.

4. Differences between public sources

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

10 differences found between the filings for Edward Roffman (compared 10 filings on Oct 24, 2026)

Note · Apr 12, 2017 – Apr 28, 2017

Form D filed 16 days after the first sale — Icagen, Inc.

The filing says the first sale was Apr 12, 2017. The Form D was filed Apr 28, 2017 — 16 days later. The rule: a Form D is generally due within 15 days after the first sale, so this one is 1 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 · Dec 16, 2014 – Jan 15, 2015

Offering amount changed between filings — Icagen, Inc.

The Dec 16, 2014 filing says $7,875,000 offered; the Jan 15, 2015 Form D/A says $8,855,000.

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.

Sources
Note · Aug 13, 2018 – Aug 15, 2018

No amendment in the last 12 months on an offering that may still be open — Icagen, Inc. (latest filing Aug 15, 2018)

The latest filing for this offering is dated Aug 15, 2018 (first sale Aug 13, 2018). It reports $500,000 sold of $1,500,000 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.

Sources
Note · Apr 4, 2018 – Apr 12, 2018

No amendment in the last 12 months on an offering that may still be open — Icagen, Inc. (latest filing Apr 12, 2018)

The latest filing for this offering is dated Apr 12, 2018 (first sale Apr 4, 2018). It reports $2,000,000 sold of $4,000,000 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.

Sources
Note · Apr 17, 2013 – May 10, 2013

No amendment in the last 12 months on an offering that may still be open — Icagen, Inc. (latest filing May 10, 2013)

The latest filing for this offering is dated May 10, 2013 (first sale Apr 17, 2013). It reports $3,135,000 sold of $5,000,000 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.

Sources
Note · Apr 29, 2013 – Apr 12, 2018

Industry group changed between filings — Icagen, Inc.

"Pharmaceuticals" (Apr 29, 2013 to Apr 28, 2017); then "Biotechnology" (May 25, 2017); then "Pharmaceuticals" (Apr 12, 2018 to Sep 12, 2018).

What this means The issuer described its business differently on different forms. Often it is just a different box ticked; sometimes the deal itself changed. Ask which business your money is in.

Sources
Note · Apr 5, 2012 – May 13, 2015

Same name, different state: "Edward Roffman" (CA) is a separate record

This page covers filings where the address state is NM or MA or NC. A separate record, "Edward Roffman" with address state CA, is listed on 7 filings — most recently by MyDx, Inc. (May 13, 2015). The two records do not overlap in time: this page runs Jul 8, 2016 to Sep 12, 2018; the other runs Apr 5, 2012 to May 13, 2015.

What this means Could be the same person who moved, or two people with the same name. We keep them apart until a filing ties them together. Check both pages before you decide.

Sources
Note · Jan 15, 2015 – Jul 8, 2016

Address moved from Cambridge, MA to Durham, NC — Icagen, Inc.

The people listed on the Jan 15, 2015 filing give Cambridge, MA; on the Jul 8, 2016 filing they give Durham, NC.

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
Note · May 10, 2013 – Dec 16, 2014

Address moved from Los Alamos, NM to Cambridge, MA — Icagen, Inc.

The people listed on the May 10, 2013 filing give Los Alamos, NM; on the Dec 16, 2014 filing they give Cambridge, MA.

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
Note · Apr 29, 2013 – Sep 12, 2018

Edward Roffman is listed with 3 different address states: NM, MA, NC

NM on 2 filings (Apr 29, 2013 to May 10, 2013); MA on 2 filings (Dec 16, 2014 to Jan 15, 2015); NC on 6 filings (Jul 8, 2016 to Sep 12, 2018).

What this means The address on a Form D is usually the company's, not the person's home, so this often just reflects different companies. It can also mean a move. Nothing wrong by itself.

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.

5. Money to insiders

4 of 8 offerings report sales commissions totalling $1,119,250; 1 reports finder's fees totalling $307,500; 1 reports proceeds to related persons totalling $250,000. (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 1

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

Every row is a Form D or D/A on which the issuer listed this name as a related person. Amount sold and investors are the maximum reported on any filing for this issuer. "Similar" = offerings in the same industry claiming the same exemption, filed in the last 5 years: Pharmaceuticals / 506(b) (800 filings); ranges are the middle half (25th–75th percentile).
