The short version

John DeCooman is listed as a director on 6 SEC Form D filings by 1 issuer between Jan 2018 and Jul 2020: AbraPlata Resource Corp. (Toronto, Ontario, Canada (as filed: A6) — industry reported as "Other" — 2018–2020; $197K reported sold to 12 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 Hernan Miguel Zaballa (6 shared filings), Cassandra Gee (4 shared filings), Eduardo Perlicz (4 shared filings), Willem Fuchter (4 shared filings), Zula Kropivnitski (4 shared filings) and 9 others.

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 (AR, AZ, CA, CT, DE, FINRA, GA, HI, ID, LA, ME, MO, MS, MT, NASAA, NC, NH, NM, OR, RI, TX, WA) — 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 John DeCooman and found 8 differences, 2 worth asking the sponsor about: 3578% of the money raised went to insiders; Paid seller listed without a CRD number: Thomas E. Wharton; 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

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

Worth asking · Jul 20, 2020

3578% of the money raised went to insiders — AbraPlata Resource Corp.

The Jul 20, 2020 Form D reports $103,075 sold and $3,688,500 of the proceeds used for payments to officers, directors or promoters. Issuer's note: "The proceeds of the Placement will be used to advance exploration activities at the Diablillos Silver-Gold project and for general working capital purposes.".

What this means The filing reports how much of the money raised was paid to insiders. Over 10% is high for most deals. Ask what it paid for.

Sources
Note · Sep 22, 2020

John DeCooman appears on 1 deal that stopped filing before reaching its target

AbraPlata Resource Corp. (last filing Sep 22, 2020; $196,591 sold of $13,788,000). Each has no filing in more than two years and reported under half its target sold.

What this means An issuer whose last filing is more than two years old and reported under half its target sold. The raise may have closed early or quietly stopped. Ask what happened to each.

Sources
Worth asking · Jan 24, 2018 – May 10, 2018

Paid seller listed without a CRD number: Thomas E. Wharton — AbraPlata Resource Corp.

Thomas E. Wharton is listed as receiving sales compensation on 2 filings (Jan 24, 2018 to May 10, 2018) 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.

Sources
Note · May 15, 2020 – Jun 1, 2020

Form D filed 17 days after the first sale — AbraPlata Resource Corp.

The filing says the first sale was May 15, 2020. The Form D was filed Jun 1, 2020 — 17 days later. The rule: a Form D is generally due within 15 days after the first sale, so this one is 2 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.

Sources
Note · Jul 9, 2020 – Jul 20, 2020

No amendment in the last 12 months on an offering that may still be open — AbraPlata Resource Corp. (latest filing Jul 20, 2020)

The latest filing for this offering is dated Jul 20, 2020 (first sale Jul 9, 2020). It reports $103,075 sold of $3,688,500 offered. No later amendment is in our index as of Oct 24, 2026.

What this means SEC rules expect a yearly amendment while an offering is still going. The raise may simply have ended — a Form D does not say when it closed. Ask the sponsor whether the offering closed, when, and at what amount.

Sources
Note · Jan 24, 2018 – Jun 1, 2020

Reported revenue range changed between filings — AbraPlata Resource Corp.

"No Revenues" (Jan 24, 2018); then "Decline to Disclose" (Jun 1, 2020).

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 · Apr 19, 2019 – Jun 1, 2020

Address moved from Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada (as filed: A1) to Toronto, Ontario, Canada (as filed: A6) — AbraPlata Resource Corp.

The people listed on the Apr 19, 2019 filing give Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada (as filed: A1); on the Jun 1, 2020 filing they give Toronto, Ontario, Canada (as filed: A6). The address now on file (220 Bay Street, Suite 550, Toronto, Ontario, Canada (as filed: A6)) is a registered-agent or shared-office address used by 7 issuers.

What this means A registered agent's address is a mailbox, not where the team works. Ask where the business actually operates.

Sources
Note · Jan 24, 2018 – Jul 20, 2020

John DeCooman is listed with 2 different address states: A1, A6

British Columbia, Canada (as filed: A1) on 4 filings (Jan 24, 2018 to Apr 19, 2019); Ontario, Canada (as filed: A6) on 2 filings (Jun 1, 2020 to Jul 20, 2020).

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.

5. Money to insiders

0 of 6 offerings report sales commissions; 4 report finder's fees totalling $8,135; 1 reports proceeds to related persons totalling $3,688,500. (includes amounts the issuer reported as estimates)

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).
