The short version

Larry Settle is listed as an executive officer and director on 8 SEC Form D filings by 2 issuers between Feb 2011 and Jan 2017: Decisiv, Inc. (Glen Allen, VA — other technology — 2011–2017; $30M reported sold to 7 investors) and CERATECH INC (Alexandria, VA — industry reported as "Other" — 2011–2012; $5M reported sold to 1 investors).

What this means 2 separate companies raised money with this person listed as executive officer and director, over about 6 years. Across those companies the filings report $35M sold in total.

Listed alongside David Settle (7 shared filings), Peter T. Garahan (6 shared filings), Richard Hyatt (6 shared filings), Lewis Dodrill (5 shared filings), Eileen O'Rouke (2 shared filings) and 7 others.

What this means These are the other officers, directors or promoters the companies named on the same forms — the team around Larry. Each name links to their own page.

1 of the issuers belongs to the sponsor group Ceratech (2 issuers, $6M reported sold, 2011–2012).

What this means A sponsor group is one team that sets up a new company for each deal. Ceratech has 2 companies on file and $6M 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) — 3 bankruptcy cases matching the name listed in Key records below.

What this means 3 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 8 public filings for Larry Settle and found 7 differences: Form D filed 18 days after the first sale; Larry Settle's role changed at CERATECH INC: executive officer, director → director; 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

7 differences found between the filings for Larry Settle (compared 8 filings on Oct 24, 2026)

Note · Jan 21, 2011 – Feb 8, 2011

Form D filed 18 days after the first sale — CERATECH INC

The filing says the first sale was Jan 21, 2011. The Form D was filed Feb 8, 2011 — 18 days later. The rule: a Form D is generally due within 15 days after the first sale, so this one is 3 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 · Feb 8, 2011 – Jan 11, 2012

Larry Settle's role changed at CERATECH INC: executive officer, director → director

The Feb 8, 2011 filing lists Larry Settle as executive officer, director; the Jan 11, 2012 Form D lists director.

What this means Roles on Form D are self-reported by the issuer. A change can mean a real change in who runs the company, or just a different box ticked. Ask who makes decisions today.

Sources
Note · Aug 3, 2015 – Mar 10, 2016

Offering amount changed between filings — Decisiv, Inc.

The Aug 3, 2015 filing says $2,799,996 offered; the Mar 10, 2016 Form D/A says $5,299,996.

What this means The target raise changed. Raising the cap is common when a deal grows; ask whether the extra money has the same terms and use.

Sources
Note · Dec 23, 2016 – Jan 5, 2017

No amendment in the last 12 months on an offering that may still be open — Decisiv, Inc. (latest filing Jan 5, 2017)

The latest filing for this offering is dated Jan 5, 2017 (first sale Dec 23, 2016). It reports $2,000,000 sold of $2,225,000 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.

Sources
Note · Dec 27, 2011 – Jan 11, 2012

No amendment in the last 12 months on an offering that may still be open — CERATECH INC (latest filing Jan 11, 2012)

The latest filing for this offering is dated Jan 11, 2012 (first sale Dec 27, 2011). It reports $1,000,000 sold of $5,000,000 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 · Jan 21, 2011 – Feb 8, 2011

Sources
Note · Feb 8, 2011 – Oct 6, 2011

Larry Settle is written 2 different ways on the filings

listed as "Larry G. Settle" on the Feb 8, 2011 filing, and "Larry Settle" on 7 filings (from Oct 6, 2011).

What this means Same person, written differently — a middle name or suffix left off, or spelled another way. It is normal, but check that the full legal name matches your subscription documents.

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.

"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.

One team, 2 deal companies. Larry Settle is listed on 1 of them.

Sources

Issuers are grouped when their Form D filings share related persons, a management entity or a business address (automatic match from the filings). "Listed" marks the issuers that name Larry Settle.

Same business address

51 other issuers file from the same address (first 50 shown)

A shared address can mean the same team, a shared office building or a registered agent. It is a lead, not a conclusion.

Registrations and other filings

Adviser registration (Form ADV)

None of the 2 issuers this person is listed on appears in Form ADV (searched 24,962 advisers as of Oct 2, 2026). A person is never an adviser firm; Form ADV is checked for the issuers and the management companies they are listed with.
