The short version

Ryan Skaar is listed as an executive officer and director on 3 SEC Form D filings by 1 issuer between Feb 2021 and Dec 2025: NanoBio Designs, Inc. (Indianapolis, IN — industry reported as "Other" — 2021–2025; $450K reported sold to 8 investors).

What this means One deal on file with the SEC. 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 Aaron Santos (3 shared filings), Derek Lyons (3 shared filings) and Todd Kielkopf (3 shared filings).

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

Public records searched: federal courts (CourtListener / RECAP), SEC enforcement releases, state securities regulators (AZ, CA, DE, TX, WA) — 5 court cases matching the name, 3 bankruptcy cases matching the name listed in Key records below.

What this means 8 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 3 public filings for Ryan Skaar and found 7 differences: Ryan Skaar's role changed at NanoBio Designs, Inc.: director → executive officer, director; Offering amount changed between filings; 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

7 differences found between the filings for Ryan Skaar (compared 3 filings on Oct 24, 2026)

Note · Feb 11, 2021 – Jan 8, 2025

Ryan Skaar's role changed at NanoBio Designs, Inc.: director → executive officer, director

The Feb 11, 2021 filing lists Ryan Skaar as director; the Jan 8, 2025 Form D lists executive officer, director.

What this means Roles on Form D are self-reported by the issuer. A change can mean a real change in who runs the company, or just a different box ticked. Ask who makes decisions today.

Sources
Note · Jan 8, 2025 – Dec 10, 2025

Offering amount changed between filings — NanoBio Designs, Inc.

The Jan 8, 2025 filing says $105,000 offered; the Dec 10, 2025 Form D/A says $150,000.

What this means The target raise changed. Raising the cap is common when a deal grows; ask whether the extra money has the same terms and use.

Sources
Note · Mar 16, 2020 – Feb 11, 2021

Offering amount changed between filings — NanoBio Designs, Inc.

The Mar 16, 2020 filing says $900,000 offered; the Feb 11, 2021 Form D/A says $1,150,000.

What this means The target raise changed. Raising the cap is common when a deal grows; ask whether the extra money has the same terms and use.

Sources
Note · Mar 28, 2020 – Feb 11, 2021

No amendment in the last 12 months on an offering that may still be open — NanoBio Designs, Inc. (latest filing Feb 11, 2021)

The latest filing for this offering is dated Feb 11, 2021 (first sale Mar 28, 2020). It reports $450,000 sold of $1,150,000 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 · Feb 11, 2021 – Jan 8, 2025

Address moved from Altoona, IA to Indianapolis, IN — NanoBio Designs, Inc.

The people listed on the Feb 11, 2021 filing give Altoona, IA; on the Jan 8, 2025 filing they give Indianapolis, IN.

What this means Businesses move; this just shows the two places and dates. If you were told one city and the forms say another, ask which is current.

Sources
Note · Feb 11, 2021 – Dec 10, 2025

Ryan Skaar is listed with 2 different address states: IA, IN

IA on 1 filing (Feb 11, 2021); IN on 2 filings (Jan 8, 2025 to Dec 10, 2025).

What this means The address on a Form D is usually the company's, not the person's home, so this often just reflects different companies. It can also mean a move. Nothing wrong by itself.

Sources
Note · Mar 16, 2020

Formed in 2022 per the latest filing, but activity is dated 2020 — NanoBio Designs, Inc.

The issuer's latest filing says it was formed in 2022. The Feb 11, 2021 filing says the first sale was Mar 28, 2020 — before that year.

What this means A company cannot sell before it exists, so one of the two dates is likely a typo on the form. Ask the sponsor for the formation document.

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.
