The short version

Silas Kines is listed as a director on 2 SEC Form D filings by 1 issuer between Mar 2010 and Aug 2010: AMERITYRE CORP (Boulder City, NV — manufacturing — 2010; $2M reported sold to 8 investors).

What this means One deal on file with the SEC, filed Aug 2010. 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 Anders Suarez (2 shared filings), Francis Dosal (2 shared filings), Gary Tucker (2 shared filings), Henry Moyle (2 shared filings), James Moore (2 shared filings) and 4 others.

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

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) — 3 court cases matching the name, 6 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 2 public filings for Silas Kines and found 5 differences: Bankruptcy case: ANDERS A. SUAREZ and KHRISTINA L. SUAREZ; 3 court cases name Silas Kines; 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

5 differences found between the filings for Silas Kines (compared 2 filings on Oct 24, 2026)

Note · Oct 29, 2013 – Feb 6, 2014

Bankruptcy case: ANDERS A. SUAREZ and KHRISTINA L. SUAREZ — filed Oct 29, 2013

United States Bankruptcy Court, D. Nevada docket "ANDERS A. SUAREZ and KHRISTINA L. SUAREZ" filed Oct 29, 2013, closed Feb 6, 2014. Anders Suarez (listed on the same filings) is listed as Debtor ("ANDERS A. SUAREZ and KHRISTINA L. SUAREZ"). Our match estimate: 70%.

What this means A bankruptcy filing was found. Many are old or personal and have nothing to do with the deal — but ask what it was and when it closed.

Sources
Note · Mar 17, 1992 – Mar 29, 2022

3 court cases name Silas Kines — 1 as defendant

By role: defendant in 1, plaintiff in 2. Newest: "OptumRX Inc. v. Kines Family Pharmacy Inc." (District Court, C.D. California, Mar 29, 2022); "Kines v. Janssen Research & Development LLC" (District Court, E.D. Louisiana, Feb 16, 2017); "KINES v. CSX TRANSPORTATION" (District Court, W.D. Pennsylvania, Mar 17, 1992). Some of these are name matches with a match estimate below 95% — check each docket.

What this means Several court cases name this subject. Some are routine business suits. Ask what each was about and how it ended.

Sources
Note · Aug 13, 2010 – Aug 23, 2010

No amendment in the last 12 months on an offering that may still be open — AMERITYRE CORP (latest filing Aug 23, 2010)

The latest filing for this offering is dated Aug 23, 2010 (first sale Aug 13, 2010). It reports $417,500 sold of $1,000,000 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 · Aug 28, 2009 – Mar 30, 2010

Offering amount lowered between filings — AMERITYRE CORP

The Aug 28, 2009 filing says $500,000 offered; the Mar 30, 2010 Form D says $250,000.

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.

Sources
Note · Aug 28, 2009 – Mar 30, 2010

Minimum investment changed between filings — AMERITYRE CORP

The Aug 28, 2009 filing lists a minimum of $1,000; the Mar 30, 2010 Form D lists $7,500.

What this means A different minimum usually means the offering terms changed. Check which terms apply to you.

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.

5. Money to insiders

None reported on 2 offerings — no sales commissions, finder's fees or proceeds to insiders

"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.
