The short version

Robert E. Wankel is listed as an executive officer and director on 10 SEC Form D filings by 6 issuers between May 2016 and Jul 2026. Largest by amount reported sold: Chess Champion Ltd Liability Co (New York, NY — industry reported as "Other" — 2025–2026; $15M reported sold to 138 investors), Nobody's Perfect Ltd Liability Co (New York, NY — industry reported as "Other" — 2021–2022; $8.53M reported sold to 18 investors), New Cats Broadway Ltd Liability Co (New York, NY — industry reported as "Other" — 2016; $5.5M reported sold to 11 investors), SRO Album LLC (New York, NY — industry reported as "Other" — 2025–2026; $800K reported sold to 15 investors), Bardway, Ltd Liability Co (New York, NY — industry reported as "Other" — 2021; $125K reported sold to 1 investors) and 1 more (all listed below).

What this means A repeat sponsor — 6 separate companies raised money with this person listed as executive officer and director, over about 10 years. Across those companies the filings report $29.9M sold in total.

Listed alongside Jeffrey Tyler Daniel (4 shared filings), Neil Meron (4 shared filings), Robert Ahrens (4 shared filings), Thomas Hulce (4 shared filings), Organization, The Shubert (3 shared filings) and 8 others.

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

The issuers belong to 4 sponsor groups: Sgp Broadway (129 issuers, $259.7M reported sold, 2010–2026), Chess (2 issuers, $15.8M reported sold, 2025–2026), Frederick Zollo (7 issuers, $7.43M reported sold, 2010–2021) and Ever After (112 issuers, $192.3M reported sold, 2009–2026).

What this means This person is listed across more than one sponsor team; each group page shows that team's full track record.

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) — 5 court cases matching the name, 4 bankruptcy cases matching the name listed in Key records below.

What this means 9 records came back, including 1 court case still open — open cases can take years and cost money. 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 Robert E. Wankel and found 13 differences, 2 worth asking the sponsor about: 5 court cases name Robert E. Wankel; Robert E. Wankel appears on 4 deals that stopped filing before reaching their target; 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.

Robert E. Wankel appears on 4 deals that stopped filing before reaching their target

California Bound Ltd Liability Co (last filing May 17, 2024; $0 sold of $6,750,000); Nobody's Perfect Ltd Liability Co (last filing Nov 28, 2022; $8,525,000 sold of $19,500,000); Bardway, Ltd Liability Co (last filing Dec 6, 2021; $125,000 sold of $5,900,000); New Cats Broadway Ltd Liability Co (last filing May 31, 2016; $5,495,000 sold of $11,000,000).

Form D filed 22 days after the first sale — New Cats Broadway Ltd Liability Co

The filing says the first sale was May 9, 2016. The Form D was filed May 31, 2016 — 22 days later. The rule: a Form D is generally due within 15 days after the first sale, so this one is 7 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.

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.

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.

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).

Deals 6

Every issuer that named Robert E. Wankel on a Form D, newest first. A Form D is the notice a company files after it starts selling a private investment.

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

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 6 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.

Other offering types (Regulation A and Regulation Crowdfunding)

Searched SEC Regulation A Data Sets (Forms 1-A, 1-K, 1-Z; 2015 Q2 → 2026 Q3); SEC Crowdfunding Offerings Data Sets (Form C family; 2016 Q2 → 2026 Q3); EDGAR form index for 2026 Q3 → 2026 Q4 (51,358 records as of Oct 23, 2026, 8:41 PM ET) — nothing matched this name.

Property records none — individuals are not matched

Property records are matched to companies only, never to individuals, so none are matched to Robert E. Wankel by design. Searched property records in Hillsborough County FL (Clerk recorded-document index Oct 14, 2026 to Oct 15, 2026 + FL DOR 2026 ownership roll), Miami-Dade County FL (FL DOR 2026 ownership roll), Harris County TX (HCAD 2026 ownership roll), Dallas County TX (DCAD 2026 ownership roll), New York City ACRIS documents and PLUTO ownership rows already retrieved for other issuers, Cook County IL sale and ownership rows already retrieved for other issuers (814,874 records as of Oct 23, 2026, 8:59 PM ET) for the 6 issuers this person is listed on — nothing matched.
