The short version

John H. Johnson is listed as an executive officer and director on 2 SEC Form D filings by 1 issuer between May 2019 and May 2020: ACTIVE CYPHER INC. (Costa Mesa, CA — other technology — 2019–2020; $959K reported sold to 4 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 Gregory R. Morrell (2 shared filings), Homer Tollenaere (2 shared filings) and William Patton (2 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.

Public records searched: federal courts (CourtListener / RECAP), SEC enforcement releases, state securities regulators (AZ, CA, DE, TX, WA) — 1 SEC release, 1 state regulator order, 8 bankruptcy cases matching the name listed in Key records below.

What this means 10 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 2 public filings for John H. Johnson and found 8 differences, 1 worth asking the sponsor about: Form D filed 341 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

Comparisons cover issuers and sponsor groups — see the issuer pages under Deals

8 differences found between the filings for John H. Johnson — 1 worth asking about (compared 2 filings on Oct 24, 2026)

Worth asking · Jun 1, 2019 – May 7, 2020

Form D filed 341 days after the first sale — ACTIVE CYPHER INC.

The filing says the first sale was Jun 1, 2019. The Form D was filed May 7, 2020 — 341 days later. The rule: a Form D is generally due within 15 days after the first sale, so this one is 326 days past that.

What this means The notice went in months after money was taken in. Late notices are common and carry no penalty by themselves, but it is fair to ask the sponsor why the paperwork lagged.

Sources
Note · Jun 1, 2019 – May 7, 2020

No amendment in the last 12 months on an offering that may still be open — ACTIVE CYPHER INC. (latest filing May 7, 2020)

The latest filing for this offering is dated May 7, 2020 (first sale Jun 1, 2019). It reports $959,259 sold of $1,000,000 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.

Note · May 16, 2019 – May 24, 2019

No amendment in the last 12 months on an offering that may still be open — ACTIVE CYPHER INC. (latest filing May 24, 2019)

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
