The short version

Guy Carling is listed as a director on 4 SEC Form D filings by 1 issuer between Apr 2023 and May 2025: Thermo Tents Ltd (Co. Kerry, Ireland (as filed: L2) — retailing — 2023–2025; $263K reported sold to 6 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 Derek O'Sullivan (4 shared filings), Konrad Testwuide (4 shared filings), Vincent O'Brien (3 shared filings), Chris Brennan (1 shared filing), Dermot Moriarty (1 shared filing) and 1 others.

What this means These are the other officers, directors or promoters the companies named on the same forms — the team around Guy. 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, 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) — 7 court cases matching the name, 7 bankruptcy cases matching the name listed in Key records below.

What this means 14 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 4 public filings for Guy Carling and found 4 differences: Industry group changed between filings; Reported revenue range 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

4 differences found between the filings for Guy Carling (compared 4 filings on Oct 24, 2026)

Note · Apr 11, 2023 – Jul 8, 2024

Industry group changed between filings — Thermo Tents Ltd

"Other" (Apr 11, 2023); then "Retailing" (Jul 8, 2024 to May 30, 2025).

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 11, 2023 – Jul 8, 2024

Reported revenue range changed between filings — Thermo Tents Ltd

"Decline to Disclose" (Apr 11, 2023); then "$1,000,001 - $5,000,000" (Jul 8, 2024).

What this means This is the size band the issuer picks for itself on the form. A change can mean the business grew or shrank — or that it chose not to say. Ask for current numbers.

Sources
Note · Jul 31, 2024 – May 30, 2025

Address moved from Tralee, Kerry, Ireland (as filed: L2) to Co. Kerry, Ireland (as filed: L2) — Thermo Tents Ltd

The people listed on the Jul 31, 2024 filing give Tralee, Kerry, Ireland (as filed: L2); on the May 30, 2025 filing they give Co. Kerry, Ireland (as filed: L2).

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.

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

1 of 3 offerings reports sales commissions totalling $120,000; 0 report finder's fees; 0 report proceeds to related persons.

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).
