Public records searched: federal courts (CourtListener / RECAP), SEC enforcement releases, state securities regulators (AK, AL, AR, AZ, CA, CT, DE, FINRA, GA, HI, ID, IL, KS, KY, LA, MA, MD, ME, MI, MO, MS, MT, NASAA, NC, ND, NH, NM, NV, OK, OR, PA, RI, SC, SD, TN, TX, VT, WA, WI, WV, WY) — 10 bankruptcy cases matching the name listed in Key records below.

What this means 10 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 3 public filings for Robert Lippert and found 9 differences, 3 worth asking the sponsor about: 287% of the money raised went to insiders; 51% of the money raised went to insiders; 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 Robert Lippert — 3 worth asking about (compared 3 filings on Oct 24, 2026)

The Apr 25, 2016 Form D reports $375,000 sold and $1,075,000 of the proceeds used for payments to officers, directors or promoters (marked as an estimate). Issuer's note: "General working capital to include payment of salaries to executive officers.".

What this means The filing reports how much of the money raised was paid to insiders. Over 10% is high for most deals. Ask what it paid for.

Sources
Worth asking · Jul 21, 2010

51% of the money raised went to insiders — Ratio, Inc.

The Jul 21, 2010 Form D reports $343,000 sold and $175,000 of the proceeds used for payments to officers, directors or promoters (marked as an estimate).

Robert Lippert appears on 2 deals that stopped filing before reaching their target

CONJUGON INC (last filing Apr 25, 2016; $1,925,000 sold of $5,750,000); Ratio, Inc. (last filing Jul 21, 2010; $343,000 sold of $875,000). 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.

Sources
Worth asking · Aug 5, 2014 – Feb 9, 2015

Form D filed 188 days after the first sale — CONJUGON INC

The filing says the first sale was Aug 5, 2014. The Form D was filed Feb 9, 2015 — 188 days later. The rule: a Form D is generally due within 15 days after the first sale, so this one is 173 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 · Apr 8, 2016 – Apr 25, 2016

Form D filed 17 days after the first sale — CONJUGON INC

The filing says the first sale was Apr 8, 2016. The Form D was filed Apr 25, 2016 — 17 days later. The rule: a Form D is generally due within 15 days after the first sale, so this one is 2 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.

Note · Apr 8, 2016 – Apr 25, 2016

No amendment in the last 12 months on an offering that may still be open — CONJUGON INC (latest filing Apr 25, 2016)

The latest filing for this offering is dated Apr 25, 2016 (first sale Apr 8, 2016). It reports $375,000 sold of $5,750,000 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: "Robert L Lippert" (NY) is a separate record

This page covers filings where the address state is WI. A separate record, "Robert L Lippert" with address state NY, is listed on 1 filing — most recently by PARETEUM Corp (Mar 6, 2019). The two records do not overlap in time: this page runs Jul 21, 2010 to Apr 25, 2016; the other has one filing dated Mar 6, 2019.

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. 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).
