The short version

Jan Buchsbaum is listed as a director on 1 SEC Form D filing by 1 issuer in Aug 2016: IDW MEDIA HOLDINGS, INC. (Newark, NJ — business services — 2016; $19M reported sold to 26 investors).

What this means One deal on file with the SEC, filed Aug 2016. 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 Howard S. Jonas (1 shared filing), Irwin Katsof (1 shared filing), Kenneth Traub (1 shared filing), Leslie B. Rozner (1 shared filing), Mark E. Knoller (1 shared filing) and 2 others.

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

The issuer belongs to the sponsor group Idw (2 issuers, $116.5M reported sold, 2016–2021).

What this means A sponsor group is one team that sets up a new company for each deal. Idw has 2 companies on file and $116.5M 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) — 5 court cases matching the name, 2 bankruptcy cases matching the name listed in Key records below.

What this means 7 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.

4. Differences between public sources

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

No differences found between the public filings we have for Jan Buchsbaum (compared 1 filing on Oct 24, 2026).

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

None reported on 1 offering — no sales commissions, finder's fees or proceeds to insiders

Per-offering detail

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.
