Listed alongside ALEXANDER TOKMAN (5 shared filings), Anthony DiGiandomenico (5 shared filings), Michael Harsh (4 shared filings), Sanjiv S. Gambhir (4 shared filings), David Wells (3 shared filings) and 5 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.

All 2 issuers belong to the sponsor group Endra (2 issuers, $14.7M reported sold, 2014–2025).

What this means A sponsor group is one team that sets up a new company for each deal. Endra has 2 companies on file and $14.7M 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) — 9 bankruptcy cases matching the name listed in Key records below.

What this means 9 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 5 public filings for Michael Thornton and found 4 differences: No amendment in the last 12 months on an offering that may still be open; Same name, different state: "Michael D. Thornton" (TX) is a separate record; 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 Thornton (compared 5 filings on Oct 24, 2026)

Note · Jun 21, 2018 – Jul 3, 2018

No amendment in the last 12 months on an offering that may still be open — ENDRA Life Sciences Inc. (latest filing Jul 3, 2018)

The latest filing for this offering is dated Jul 3, 2018 (first sale Jun 21, 2018). It reports $1,077,000 sold of $1,097,000 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 · Mar 14, 2014 – Mar 25, 2014

No amendment in the last 12 months on an offering that may still be open — Endra, Inc. (latest filing Mar 25, 2014)

The latest filing for this offering is dated Mar 25, 2014 (first sale Mar 14, 2014). It reports $287,101 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.

Sources
Note · Mar 15, 2012

Same name, different state: "Michael D. Thornton" (TX) is a separate record

This page covers filings where the address state is MI. A separate record, "Michael D. Thornton" with address state TX, is listed on 1 filing — most recently by Lift Energy Partners, LLC (Mar 15, 2012). The two records do not overlap in time: this page runs Mar 25, 2014 to Oct 24, 2025; the other has one filing dated Mar 15, 2012.

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.

Sources
Note · Jul 3, 2018 – Oct 24, 2025

Reported revenue range changed between filings — ENDRA Life Sciences Inc.

"$1 - $1,000,000" (Jul 3, 2018); then "No Revenues" (Oct 24, 2025).

What this means This is the size band the issuer picks for itself on the form. A change can mean the business grew or shrank — or that it chose not to say. Ask for current numbers.

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.

How this is counted

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).
