Data last updated Oct 23, 2026, 5:45 PM ET · Courts (RECAP) last checked: Oct 24, 2026, 2:40 AM ET · SEC enforcement last checked: covered by the index scan as of Oct 24, 2026, 2:50 AM ET

The short version

Michael Hylander is listed as a director on 10 SEC Form D filings by 1 issuer between Mar 2017 and Feb 2018: Progreen US, Inc. (San Diego, CA — other real estate — 2017–2018; $1.51M reported sold to 7 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 Jan Telander (10 shared filings).

What this means These are the other officers, directors or promoters the companies named on the same forms — the team around Michael. 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) — 2 court cases matching the name, 1 SEC release, 9 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 10 public filings for Michael Hylander and found 9 differences, 2 worth asking the sponsor about: Investor count went down between filings; Form D filed 196 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

9 differences found between the filings for Michael Hylander — 2 worth asking about (compared 10 filings on Oct 24, 2026)

Worth asking · May 17, 2017 – Oct 23, 2017

Investor count went down between filings — Progreen US, Inc.

The May 17, 2017 filing reports 7 investors; the Oct 23, 2017 Form D/A reports 5 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
Worth asking · Sep 13, 2016 – Mar 28, 2017

Form D filed 196 days after the first sale — Progreen US, Inc.

The filing says the first sale was Sep 13, 2016. The Form D was filed Mar 28, 2017 — 196 days later. The rule: a Form D is generally due within 15 days after the first sale, so this one is 181 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 · Jan 30, 2018 – Feb 28, 2018

Offering amount changed between filings — Progreen US, Inc.

The Jan 30, 2018 filing says $1,500,000 offered; the Feb 28, 2018 Form D/A says $1,700,000.

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 · Oct 23, 2017

Offering amount changed between filings — Progreen US, Inc.

The Oct 23, 2017 filing says $1,000,000 offered; the Oct 23, 2017 Form D/A says $1,500,000.

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 · Sep 13, 2016 – Feb 28, 2018

No amendment in the last 12 months on an offering that may still be open — Progreen US, Inc. (latest filing Feb 28, 2018)

The latest filing for this offering is dated Feb 28, 2018 (first sale Sep 13, 2016). It reports $1,509,804 sold of $1,700,000 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 · Oct 5, 2017 – Feb 28, 2018

No amendment in the last 12 months on an offering that may still be open — Progreen US, Inc. (latest filing Feb 28, 2018)

The latest filing for this offering is dated Feb 28, 2018 (first sale Oct 5, 2017). It reports $420,415 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.

Sources
Note · May 17, 2017 – Oct 20, 2017

Address moved from Bloomfield Township, MI to San Diego, CA — Progreen US, Inc.

The people listed on the May 17, 2017 filing give Bloomfield Township, MI; on the Oct 20, 2017 filing they give San Diego, 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 · Mar 28, 2017 – Feb 28, 2018

Michael Hylander is listed with 2 different address states: MI, CA

MI on 3 filings (Mar 28, 2017 to May 17, 2017); CA on 7 filings (Oct 20, 2017 to Feb 28, 2018).

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 · Apr 11, 2017 – May 17, 2017

Minimum investment changed between filings — Progreen US, Inc.

The Apr 11, 2017 filing lists a minimum of $50,000; the May 17, 2017 Form D/A lists $45,000.

What this means A different minimum usually means the offering terms changed. Check which terms apply to you.

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

0 of 2 offerings report sales commissions; 0 report finder's fees; 2 report proceeds to related persons totalling $125,000. (includes amounts the issuer reported as estimates)

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).
