The short version

Robert Rinek is listed as an executive officer and director on 33 SEC Form D filings by 8 issuers between May 2010 and Oct 2026. Largest by amount reported sold: RxFunction, Inc. (Eden Prairie, MN — manufacturing — 2017–2026; $7.5M reported sold to 48 investors), PJC Merchant Banking Partners III, LLC (Minneapolis, MN — pooled investment fund — 2012; $4.38M reported sold to 23 investors), PJC Merchant Banking Partners IV, LLC (Minneapolis, MN — pooled investment fund — 2014; $3.5M reported sold to 20 investors), PJC Merchant Banking Partners II, LLC (Minneapolis, MN — pooled investment fund — 2010; $3.5M reported sold to 21 investors), Piper Sandler Merchant Banking Fund III, L.P. (Minneapolis, MN — pooled investment fund — 2022) and 3 more (all listed below).

What this means A repeat sponsor — 8 separate companies raised money with this person listed as executive officer and director, over about 16 years. Across those companies the filings report $18.9M sold in total.

Listed alongside Kevin Roche (26 shared filings), Lars Oddsson (26 shared filings), Richard Nigon (26 shared filings), Mary E. Anderson (25 shared filings), Richard Offerdahl (19 shared filings) and 19 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.

7 of the issuers belong to the sponsor group Pjc Merchant Banking (7 issuers, $11.4M reported sold, 2010–2022).

What this means A sponsor group is one team that sets up a new company for each deal. Pjc Merchant Banking has 7 companies on file and $11.4M 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 (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) — 2 bankruptcy cases matching the name listed in Key records below.

What this means 2 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 33 public filings for Robert Rinek and found 12 differences, 1 worth asking the sponsor about: 4 filings report more than 10% of the money raised going 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.

The Apr 3, 2019 filing says $12,000,000 offered; the Sep 28, 2020 Form D/A says $4,290,592.

What this means The target raise got smaller. That can mean the plan shrank or the sponsor stopped early. Ask what changed in the deal.

listed as "Robert Rinek" on 28 filings (from May 12, 2010), and "Robert P. Rinek" on 5 filings (from Sep 28, 2017).

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).

Deals 8

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

Issuers are grouped when their Form D filings share related persons, a management entity or a business address (automatic match from the filings). "Listed" marks the issuers that name Robert Rinek.

Same business address

11 other issuers file from the same address

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

Adviser registration (Form ADV)

None of the 8 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 Rinek 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 8 issuers this person is listed on — nothing matched.
