The short version

Fouad Bashour is listed as a director on 10 SEC Form D filings by 3 issuers between Jun 2009 and May 2025: DWS Holdings LLC (Fort Worth, TX — investing — 2025; $33.5M reported sold to 12 investors), Tiff's Treats Holdings, Inc. (Austin, TX — retailing — 2016–2021; $28.3M reported sold to 90 investors) and Red Mango, Inc. (Dallas, TX — restaurants — 2009–2010; $2.7M reported sold to 5 investors).

What this means A repeat sponsor — 3 separate companies raised money with this person listed as director, over about 16 years. Across those companies the filings report $64.5M sold in total.

Listed alongside Kullen Kifer (6 shared filings), Lee Valkenaar (6 shared filings), Leon Chen (6 shared filings), Mark Melton (6 shared filings), Michael Joyce (6 shared filings) and 24 others.

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

1 of the issuers belongs to the sponsor group Tiff (7 issuers, $43.6M reported sold, 2011–2021).

What this means A sponsor group is one team that sets up a new company for each deal. Tiff has 7 companies on file and $43.6M 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 Fouad Bashour and found 5 differences, 1 worth asking the sponsor about: 5 Form Ds were filed more than 15 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.

4. Differences between public sources

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

5 differences found between the filings for Fouad Bashour — 1 worth asking about (compared 10 filings on Oct 24, 2026)

Worth asking · Oct 9, 2009 – May 22, 2025

5 Form Ds were filed more than 15 days after the first sale

Form D filed 69 days after the first sale — DWS Holdings LLC · Form D filed 199 days after the first sale — Red Mango, Inc. · Form D filed 16 days after the first sale — Tiff's Treats Holdings, Inc. · Form D filed 33 days after the first sale — Tiff's Treats Holdings, Inc. · Form D filed 17 days after the first sale — Red Mango, Inc.

What this means Late notices are common and carry no penalty by themselves. A pattern of late paperwork is worth asking the sponsor about.

Sources
Note · Jun 5, 2009 – Dec 1, 2021

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 — Tiff's Treats Holdings, Inc. (latest filing Dec 1, 2021) · No amendment in the last 12 months on an offering that may still be open — Tiff's Treats Holdings, Inc. (latest filing Aug 13, 2020) · No amendment in the last 12 months on an offering that may still be open — Tiff's Treats Holdings, Inc. (latest filing Nov 27, 2017) · No amendment in the last 12 months on an offering that may still be open — Red Mango, Inc. (latest filing Apr 26, 2010) · No amendment in the last 12 months on an offering that may still be open — Red Mango, Inc. (latest filing Apr 26, 2010) · 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.

Sources
Note · Jan 13, 2012 – Oct 23, 2025

Same name, different state: "Fouad Z. Bashour" (TX or MN) is a separate record

This page covers filings where the address state is CA or TX. A separate record, "Fouad Z. Bashour" with address state TX or MN, is listed on 14 filings — most recently by CIC REAL LP (Oct 23, 2025). Both records have filings in the same period (Jan 13, 2012 to May 22, 2025).

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.

Sources
Note · Jun 19, 2009 – Apr 26, 2010

Address moved from Sherman Oaks, CA to Dallas, TX — Red Mango, Inc.

The people listed on the Jun 19, 2009 filing give Sherman Oaks, CA; on the Apr 26, 2010 filing they give Dallas, TX.

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 · Jun 19, 2009 – May 22, 2025

Fouad Bashour is listed with 2 different address states: CA, TX

CA on 1 filing (Jun 19, 2009); TX on 9 filings (Apr 26, 2010 to May 22, 2025).

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.

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 3

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

Adviser registration (Form ADV)

None of the 3 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.
