The short version

John Griffin is listed as an executive officer and director on 6 SEC Form D filings by 5 issuers between Jan 2016 and Oct 2025: West Star Aviation Investments, LLC (Houston, TX — industry reported as "Other" — 2022; $224.1M reported sold to 14 investors), Tangent Technologies Investments, LLC (Houston, TX — industry reported as "Other" — 2018; $103.5M reported sold to 8 investors), West Star Aviation Holdings, LLC (Houston, TX — industry reported as "Other" — 2022; $17.9M reported sold to 24 investors), PointResponse, Inc. (Texas City, TX — other technology — 2016; $65K reported sold to 4 investors) and CYC Income Fund III, LP (Houston, TX — pooled investment fund — 2025).

What this means A repeat sponsor — 5 separate companies raised money with this person listed as executive officer and director, over about 9 years. Across those companies the filings report $345.6M sold in total.

Listed alongside Brandon Baudin (4 shared filings), Max Klupchak (4 shared filings), Greg Elliott (3 shared filings), Patrick Vocke (3 shared filings), Andrew Stephens (1 shared filing) 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.

The issuers belong to 2 sponsor groups: Sterling (52 issuers, $4.92B reported sold, 2009–2024) and Crypto (2 issuers, $2.4M reported sold, 2021–2025).

What this means This person is listed across more than one sponsor team; each group page shows that team's full track record.

Public records searched: federal courts (CourtListener / RECAP), SEC enforcement releases, state securities regulators (AZ, CA, DE, TX, WA) — 4 SEC releases, 8 bankruptcy cases matching the name listed in Key records below.

What this means 12 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 6 public filings for John Griffin and found 11 differences: Form D filed 20 days after the first sale; Form D filed 24 days after the first sale; 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

11 differences found between the filings for John Griffin (compared 6 filings on Oct 24, 2026)

Note · Mar 1, 2022 – Mar 21, 2022

Form D filed 20 days after the first sale — West Star Aviation Holdings, LLC

The filing says the first sale was Mar 1, 2022. The Form D was filed Mar 21, 2022 — 20 days later. The rule: a Form D is generally due within 15 days after the first sale, so this one is 5 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.

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.

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).

Every row is a Form D or D/A on which the issuer listed this name as a related person. Amount sold and investors are the maximum reported on any filing for this issuer. "Similar" = offerings in the same industry claiming the same exemption, filed in the last 5 years: Other Technology / 506(b) (17,390 filings); ranges are the middle half (25th–75th percentile). Computed by PartnerFacts from SEC EDGAR Form D data as of Oct 23, 2026, 5:45 PM ET. Rows without a range: fewer than 30 comparable filings, or not a Rule 506 offering. No ranking or score.
