The short version

John Gough is listed as an executive officer and director on 11 SEC Form D filings by 2 issuers between Jun 2021 and Jun 2026: Talon Essential Services Fund LP (Kensington, CA — pooled investment fund — 2021–2026; $36.2M reported sold to 40 investors) and Talon Essential Services Offshore Fund Ltd. (Grand Cayman, Cayman Islands (as filed: E9) — pooled investment fund — 2021–2025; $9.36M reported sold to 19 investors).

What this means 2 separate companies raised money with this person listed as executive officer and director, over about 5 years. Across those companies the filings report $45.5M sold in total.

Listed alongside Tim Albinson (11 shared filings).

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.

All 2 issuers belong to the sponsor group Talon Essential (2 issuers, $45.5M reported sold, 2021–2026).

What this means A sponsor group is one team that sets up a new company for each deal. Talon Essential has 2 companies on file and $45.5M 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) — 1 court case matching the name, 17 bankruptcy cases matching the name listed in Key records below.

What this means 18 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 11 public filings for John Gough and found 5 differences, 1 worth asking the sponsor about: Investor count went down between filings; 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

5 differences found between the filings for John Gough — 1 worth asking about (compared 11 filings on Oct 24, 2026)

Worth asking · Jun 9, 2023 – Jun 10, 2024

Investor count went down between filings — Talon Essential Services Fund LP

The Jun 9, 2023 filing reports 40 investors; the Jun 10, 2024 Form D/A reports 32 investors.

What this means Investor counts normally only grow. A smaller number can mean investors left or were refunded, or a count was corrected. Ask the sponsor what happened.

Sources
Note · Jun 10, 2022 – Jun 9, 2023

Address moved from Bigfork, MT to Kensington, CA — Talon Essential Services Fund LP

The people listed on the Jun 10, 2022 filing give Bigfork, MT; on the Jun 9, 2023 filing they give Kensington, 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 · Nov 4, 2021 – Nov 4, 2022

Address moved from Bigfork, MT to Kensington, CA — Talon Essential Services Offshore Fund Ltd.

The people listed on the Nov 4, 2021 filing give Bigfork, MT; on the Nov 4, 2022 filing they give Kensington, 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 · Jun 11, 2021 – Jun 10, 2026

John Gough is listed with 2 different address states: MT, CA

MT on 3 filings (Jun 11, 2021 to Jun 10, 2022); CA on 8 filings (Nov 4, 2022 to Jun 10, 2026).

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
Note · Jun 11, 2021 – Jun 9, 2023

Reported net asset value range changed between filings — Talon Essential Services Fund LP

"Decline to Disclose" (Jun 11, 2021); then "$25,000,001 - $50,000,000" (Jun 9, 2023).

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
