The short version

Helmut Eckert is listed as an executive officer on 6 SEC Form D filings by 3 issuers between Aug 2009 and Dec 2023: Coelacanth Energy Inc. (Calgary, Alberta, Canada (as filed: A0) — oil and gas — 2023; $50.6M reported sold to 15 investors), Leucrotta Exploration Inc. (Calgary, Alberta, Canada (as filed: A0) — oil and gas — 2014–2021; $6M reported sold to 17 investors) and Crocotta Energy Inc. (Calgary, Alberta, Canada (as filed: A0) — oil and gas — 2009; $2.92M reported sold).

What this means A repeat sponsor — 3 separate companies raised money with this person listed as executive officer, over about 14 years. Across those companies the filings report $59.5M sold in total.

Listed alongside Nolan Chicoine (6 shared filings), Robert Zakresky (6 shared filings), Brian Krausert (5 shared filings), Daryl Gilbert (5 shared filings), Donald Cowie (5 shared filings) and 20 others.

What this means These are the other officers, directors or promoters the companies named on the same forms — the team around Helmut. 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) — 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 6 public filings for Helmut Eckert and found 8 differences, 2 worth asking the sponsor about: Paid seller listed without a CRD number: Haywood Securities (USA) Inc; Paid seller listed without a CRD number: Raymond James Securities (USA) Ltd; 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.

8 differences found between the filings for Helmut Eckert — 2 worth asking about (compared 6 filings on Oct 24, 2026)

Haywood Securities (USA) Inc. is listed as receiving sales compensation on 1 filing (May 17, 2021) with no FINRA CRD number given.

What this means People paid to sell securities normally hold a FINRA registration with a CRD number. Without one we cannot look them up on BrokerCheck. Ask who they are and whether they are registered.

Note · Nov 15, 2023 – Dec 14, 2023

Form D filed 29 days after the first sale — Coelacanth Energy Inc.

The filing says the first sale was Nov 15, 2023. The Form D was filed Dec 14, 2023 — 29 days later. The rule: a Form D is generally due within 15 days after the first sale, so this one is 14 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.

Form D filed 16 days after the first sale — Leucrotta Exploration Inc.

The filing says the first sale was Mar 31, 2021. The Form D was filed Apr 16, 2021 — 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.

Note · Aug 24, 2014 – Sep 15, 2014

The filing says the first sale was Aug 24, 2014. The Form D was filed Sep 15, 2014 — 22 days later. The rule: a Form D is generally due within 15 days after the first sale, so this one is 7 days past that.

Sources
Note · Aug 13, 2009 – May 9, 2017

Helmut Eckert is written 2 different ways on the filings

listed as "Helmut R Eckert" on 2 filings (from Aug 13, 2009), and "Helmut Eckert" on 4 filings (from May 9, 2017).

What this means Same person, written differently — a middle name or suffix left off, or spelled another way. It is normal, but check that the full legal name matches your subscription documents.

Sources
Note · Sep 15, 2014 – May 9, 2017

Address moved from Calgary, Alberta, Canada (as filed: A0) to Calgary, British Columbia, Canada (as filed: A1) — Leucrotta Exploration Inc.

The people listed on the Sep 15, 2014 filing give Calgary, Alberta, Canada (as filed: A0); on the May 9, 2017 filing they give Calgary, British Columbia, Canada (as filed: A1).

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 · Aug 13, 2009 – Dec 14, 2023

Helmut Eckert is listed with 2 different address states: A0, A1

Alberta, Canada (as filed: A0) on 3 filings (Aug 13, 2009 to Dec 14, 2023); British Columbia, Canada (as filed: A1) on 3 filings (May 9, 2017 to May 17, 2021).

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).
