The short version

Jim Davidson is listed as a director on 22 SEC Form D filings by 4 issuers between Oct 2014 and Aug 2025: Katerra Inc. (Menlo Park, CA — industry reported as "Other" — 2016–2018; $998.9M reported sold to 56 investors), MCE Social Capital (San Francisco, CA — industry reported as "Other" — 2018–2025; $68.5M reported sold to 80 investors), VIRTUAL INSTRUMENTS Corp (San Jose, CA — computers — 2014; $27.5M reported sold to 36 investors) and Schoola, Inc. (San Francisco, CA — other technology — 2015–2016; $18.5M reported sold to 129 investors).

What this means A repeat sponsor — 4 separate companies raised money with this person listed as director, over about 11 years. Across those companies the filings report $1.11B sold in total.

Listed alongside Catherine Covington (13 shared filings), Dan Brunner (13 shared filings), Gary Ford (13 shared filings), John Ayliffe (13 shared filings), Justin Morales (13 shared filings) and 60 others.

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

1 of the issuers belongs to the sponsor group Mce (2 issuers, $20.9M reported sold, 2016–2026).

What this means A sponsor group is one team that sets up a new company for each deal. Mce has 2 companies on file and $20.9M 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 (AK, AL, AR, AZ, CA, CO, CT, DC, DE, FINRA, FL, GA, HI, ID, IL, KS, KY, LA, MA, MD, ME, MI, MO, MS, MT, NASAA, NC, ND, NH, NM, NV, NY, OH, OK, OR, PA, RI, SC, SD, TN, TX, UT, VT, WA, WI, WV, WY) — 2 court cases matching the name, 1 state regulator order, 2 bankruptcy cases matching the name listed in Key records below.

What this means 5 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 22 public filings for Jim Davidson and found 14 differences, 5 worth asking the sponsor about: 11 bankruptcy cases name the subject or team members; 2 court cases name Jim Davidson; 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.

The Aug 29, 2019 filing says $25,000,000 offered; the Aug 28, 2020 Form D/A says $100,000,000.

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 · Feb 7, 2018 – Sep 20, 2018

Offering amount changed between filings — Katerra Inc.

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.

Reported revenue range changed between filings — MCE Social Capital

Same name, different state: "Jim Davidson" (FL) is a separate record

This page covers filings where the address state is CA or E9. A separate record, "Jim Davidson" with address state FL, is listed on 1 filing — most recently by Vology, Inc. (Oct 11, 2017). Both records have filings in the same period (Oct 11, 2017).

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.

Note · Aug 11, 2010

Same name, different state: "Jim Davidson" (GA) is a separate record

This page covers filings where the address state is CA or E9. A separate record, "Jim Davidson" with address state GA, is listed on 1 filing — most recently by American BioSurgical, LLC (Aug 11, 2010). The two records do not overlap in time: this page runs Oct 8, 2014 to Aug 22, 2025; the other has one filing dated Aug 11, 2010.

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.

Note · Apr 14, 2017 – Dec 27, 2017

Address moved from Grand Cayman, Cayman Islands (as filed: E9) to Menlo Park, CA — Katerra Inc.

The people listed on the Apr 14, 2017 filing give Grand Cayman, Cayman Islands (as filed: E9); on the Dec 27, 2017 filing they give Menlo Park, CA.

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 · Oct 8, 2014 – Aug 22, 2025

Jim Davidson is listed with 2 different address states: CA, E9

CA on 20 filings (Oct 8, 2014 to Aug 22, 2025); Cayman Islands (as filed: E9) on 2 filings (Mar 28, 2016 to Apr 14, 2017).

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.

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.

2 issuers · 17 filings · $20.9M reported sold · 2016–2026

One team, 2 deal companies. Jim Davidson is listed on 1 of them.

Sources

Issuers are grouped when their Form D filings share related persons, a management entity or a business address (automatic match from the filings). "Listed" marks the issuers that name Jim Davidson.

Same business address

12 other issuers file from the same address

A shared address can mean the same team, a shared office building or a registered agent. It is a lead, not a conclusion.

Registrations and other filings

Business registration (state registry / Secretary of State)

Individuals are not matched to business registrations — registries list companies, and a name alone is not enough to tie a person to one. Officers and managers appear by name inside each matched company's record on the issuer pages. Registries searched: AL (Alabama Secretary of State — Business Entity Records (arc-sos.state.al.us), searched by issuer name, data as of Oct 24, 2026); CO (Colorado Secretary of State — Business Entities in Colorado (data.colorado.gov), data as of Oct 23, 2026); CT (Connecticut Secretary of the State — Business Registry (data.ct.gov), data as of Oct 24, 2026); FL (Florida Department of State, Division of Corporations — quarterly corporate data file (Sunbiz), data as of Oct 7, 2026); NY (New York Department of State — Corporations and Other Entities (data.ny.gov: All Filings + Active Corporations), data as of Oct 20, 2026); OR (Oregon Secretary of State — Active Businesses, All (data.oregon.gov), data as of Oct 20, 2026); PA (Pennsylvania Department of State — Registered Businesses, Current (data.pa.gov), data as of Oct 6, 2026); TX (Texas Comptroller — Active Franchise Taxpayers incl. Secretary of State file data (data.texas.gov), data as of Oct 24, 2026). Registries of other states have not been searched: many publish no bulk file and require a CAPTCHA or bot challenge on their search page, which we do not bypass (Delaware, for example, offers no public bulk file).

Adviser registration (Form ADV)

None of the 4 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.

Other offering types (Regulation A and Regulation Crowdfunding)

Searched SEC Regulation A Data Sets (Forms 1-A, 1-K, 1-Z; 2015 Q2 → 2026 Q3); SEC Crowdfunding Offerings Data Sets (Form C family; 2016 Q2 → 2026 Q3); EDGAR form index for 2026 Q3 → 2026 Q4 (51,358 records as of Oct 23, 2026, 8:41 PM ET) — nothing matched this name.

Property records none — individuals are not matched

Property records are matched to companies only, never to individuals, so none are matched to Jim Davidson by design. Searched property records in Hillsborough County FL (Clerk recorded-document index Oct 14, 2026 to Oct 15, 2026 + FL DOR 2026 ownership roll), Miami-Dade County FL (FL DOR 2026 ownership roll), Harris County TX (HCAD 2026 ownership roll), Dallas County TX (DCAD 2026 ownership roll), New York City ACRIS documents and PLUTO ownership rows already retrieved for other issuers, Cook County IL sale and ownership rows already retrieved for other issuers (814,874 records as of Oct 23, 2026, 8:59 PM ET) for the 4 issuers this person is listed on — nothing matched.
