The short version

John Todd is listed as an executive officer and director on 6 SEC Form D filings by 1 issuer between Oct 2013 and Oct 2017: Royalty Capital Corp (Orland Park, IL — insurance — 2013–2017; $816K reported sold to 62 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 Gregg E. Zahn (6 shared filings) and William Sherman Lay (3 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 (AK, AL, AR, AZ, CA, CT, DE, FINRA, GA, HI, ID, IL, KS, KY, LA, MA, MD, ME, MI, MO, MS, MT, NASAA, NC, ND, NH, NM, NV, OK, OR, PA, RI, SC, SD, TN, TX, VT, WA, WI, WV, WY) — 3 SEC releases, 5 bankruptcy cases matching the name listed in Key records below.

What this means 8 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 Todd and found 8 differences, 1 worth asking the sponsor about: Form D filed 62 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.

Same name, different state: "John Todd" (CA) is a separate record

This page covers filings where the address state is IL. A separate record, "John Todd" with address state CA, is listed on 1 filing — most recently by Sensel, Inc. (Jun 4, 2024). The two records do not overlap in time: this page runs Oct 17, 2013 to Oct 16, 2017; the other has one filing dated Jun 4, 2024.

What this means Could be the same person who moved, or two people with the same name. We keep them apart until a filing ties them together. Check both pages before you decide.

Address moved from South Elgin, IL to Orland Park, IL — Royalty Capital Corp

The people listed on the Dec 6, 2013 filing give South Elgin, IL; on the Aug 11, 2015 filing they give Orland Park, IL.

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.

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.
