The short version

John Addison is listed as a promoter on 1 SEC Form D filing by 1 issuer in Dec 2014: Gliders, LLC (Lakewood, CO — manufacturing — 2014; $525K reported sold to 4 investors).

What this means One deal on file with the SEC, filed Dec 2014. 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 Roger Cohen (1 shared filing).

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

Public records searched: federal courts (CourtListener / RECAP), SEC enforcement releases, state securities regulators (AZ, CA, DE, TX, WA) — 1 court case matching the name, 21 bankruptcy cases matching the name listed in Key records below.

What this means 22 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 1 public filing for John Addison and found 3 differences, 1 worth asking the sponsor about: John Addison is no longer listed on the May 7, 2019 amendment; 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

3 differences found between the filings for John Addison — 1 worth asking about (compared 1 filing on Oct 24, 2026)

Worth asking · Dec 4, 2014 – May 7, 2019

John Addison is no longer listed on the May 7, 2019 amendment — Gliders, LLC

John Addison appears on the Dec 4, 2014 Form D (promoter) but not on the May 7, 2019 Form D/A for the same offering.

What this means People leave, and the issuer must list only current officers, directors and promoters. It is still worth asking why this person left and who replaced them.

Sources
Note · Dec 4, 2014 – May 7, 2019

Offering amount changed between filings — Gliders, LLC

The Dec 4, 2014 filing says $500,000 offered; the May 7, 2019 Form D/A says $900,000.

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 · Dec 4, 2014 – May 7, 2019

Reported revenue range changed between filings — Gliders, LLC

"No Revenues" (Dec 4, 2014); then "Decline to Disclose" (May 7, 2019).

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
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

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.
