The short version

Michael Lerner is listed as a director on 1 SEC Form D filing by 1 issuer in Jul 2019: Rethink Brands, Inc. (Washington, DC — industry reported as "Other" — 2019; $2.26M reported sold to 19 investors).

What this means One deal on file with the SEC, filed Jul 2019. 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 CHRIS O'DONOVAN (1 shared filing), Christopher Konieczny (1 shared filing), DANIEL BAUMWALD (1 shared filing), MATTHEW SWANSON (1 shared filing), Michael Dean (1 shared filing) and 1 others.

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 (AK, AL, AR, AZ, CA, CO, CT, DC, DE, FINRA, FL, GA, HI, ID, IL, KS, KY, LA, MA, MD, ME, MI, MO, MS, MT, NASAA, NC, ND, NH, NM, NV, NY, OH, OK, OR, PA, RI, SC, SD, TN, TX, UT, VT, WA, WI, WV, WY) — 1 state regulator order, 16 bankruptcy cases matching the name listed in Key records below.

What this means 17 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 1 public filing for Michael Lerner and found 4 differences: Michael Lerner appears on 1 deal that stopped filing before reaching its target; No amendment in the last 12 months on an offering that may still be open; 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

4 differences found between the filings for Michael Lerner (compared 1 filing on Oct 24, 2026)

Note · Jul 1, 2019

Michael Lerner appears on 1 deal that stopped filing before reaching its target

Rethink Brands, Inc. (last filing Jul 1, 2019; $2,263,594 sold of $6,790,783). Each has no filing in more than two years and reported under half its target sold.

What this means An issuer whose last filing is more than two years old and reported under half its target sold. The raise may have closed early or quietly stopped. Ask what happened to each.

Rethink Brands, Inc. — PartnerFacts page ↗

Note · Jun 18, 2019 – Jul 1, 2019

No amendment in the last 12 months on an offering that may still be open — Rethink Brands, Inc. (latest filing Jul 1, 2019)

The latest filing for this offering is dated Jul 1, 2019 (first sale Jun 18, 2019). It reports $1,300,000 sold of $1,500,000 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.

Same name, different state: "Michael N Lerner" (TX) is a separate record

This page covers filings where the address state is DC. A separate record, "Michael N Lerner" with address state TX, is listed on 2 filings — most recently by SnapAds, Inc. (Aug 16, 2023). The two records do not overlap in time: this page has one filing dated Jul 1, 2019; the other has one filing dated Aug 16, 2023.

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.

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.

"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.

Registrations and other filings

Business registration (state registry / Secretary of State)

Individuals are not matched to business registrations — registries list companies, and a name alone is not enough to tie a person to one. Officers and managers appear by name inside each matched company's record on the issuer pages. Registries searched: AL (Alabama Secretary of State — Business Entity Records (arc-sos.state.al.us), searched by issuer name, data as of Oct 24, 2026); CO (Colorado Secretary of State — Business Entities in Colorado (data.colorado.gov), data as of Oct 23, 2026); CT (Connecticut Secretary of the State — Business Registry (data.ct.gov), data as of Oct 24, 2026); FL (Florida Department of State, Division of Corporations — quarterly corporate data file (Sunbiz), data as of Oct 7, 2026); NY (New York Department of State — Corporations and Other Entities (data.ny.gov: All Filings + Active Corporations), data as of Oct 20, 2026); OR (Oregon Secretary of State — Active Businesses, All (data.oregon.gov), data as of Oct 20, 2026); PA (Pennsylvania Department of State — Registered Businesses, Current (data.pa.gov), data as of Oct 6, 2026); TX (Texas Comptroller — Active Franchise Taxpayers incl. Secretary of State file data (data.texas.gov), data as of Oct 24, 2026). Registries of other states have not been searched: many publish no bulk file and require a CAPTCHA or bot challenge on their search page, which we do not bypass (Delaware, for example, offers no public bulk file).

Adviser registration (Form ADV)

None of the 1 issuer 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.
