The short version

Stephen Coates is listed as a director on 3 SEC Form D filings by 3 issuers between Feb 2011 and Feb 2022: Xigem Technologies Corp. (Vaughan, Ontario, Canada (as filed: A6) — industry reported as "Other" — 2022; $143K reported sold to 2 investors), TELFERSCOT RESOURCES INC. (Toronto, Ontario, Canada (as filed: A6) — industry reported as "Other" — 2011; $40K reported sold to 1 investors) and Desiree Resources Inc. (Orleans, Ontario, Canada (as filed: A6) — industry reported as "Other" — 2011; $30K reported sold to 2 investors).

What this means A repeat sponsor — 3 separate companies raised money with this person listed as director, over about 11 years. Across those companies the filings report $213K sold in total.

Listed alongside Brian Kalish (1 shared filing), Conor Bill (1 shared filing), Edwin A Beamen (1 shared filing), GERRY GRAVINA (1 shared filing), Igor Kostiouchenko (1 shared filing) and 6 others.

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

1 of the issuers belongs to the sponsor group Galahad (2 issuers, $92K reported sold, 2011).

What this means A sponsor group is one team that sets up a new company for each deal. Galahad has 2 companies on file and $92K 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 (AZ, CA, DE, TX, WA) — 5 bankruptcy cases matching the name listed in Key records below.

What this means 5 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 Stephen Coates and found 6 differences, 1 worth asking the sponsor about: Form D filed 75 days after the first sale; 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

6 differences found between the filings for Stephen Coates — 1 worth asking about (compared 3 filings on Oct 24, 2026)

Worth asking · Jan 19, 2011 – Apr 4, 2011

Form D filed 75 days after the first sale — Desiree Resources Inc.

The filing says the first sale was Jan 19, 2011. The Form D was filed Apr 4, 2011 — 75 days later. The rule: a Form D is generally due within 15 days after the first sale, so this one is 60 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.

Sources
Note · Jan 24, 2022 – Feb 15, 2022

Form D filed 22 days after the first sale — Xigem Technologies Corp.

The filing says the first sale was Jan 24, 2022. The Form D was filed Feb 15, 2022 — 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.

Sources
Note · Jan 25, 2011 – Feb 14, 2011

Form D filed 20 days after the first sale — TELFERSCOT RESOURCES INC.

The filing says the first sale was Jan 25, 2011. The Form D was filed Feb 14, 2011 — 20 days later. The rule: a Form D is generally due within 15 days after the first sale, so this one is 5 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.

Sources
Note · Jan 24, 2022 – Feb 15, 2022

No amendment in the last 12 months on an offering that may still be open — Xigem Technologies Corp. (latest filing Feb 15, 2022)

The latest filing for this offering is dated Feb 15, 2022 (first sale Jan 24, 2022). It reports $143,233 sold of $167,787 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 · Jan 19, 2011 – Apr 4, 2011

No amendment in the last 12 months on an offering that may still be open — Desiree Resources Inc. (latest filing Apr 4, 2011)

The latest filing for this offering is dated Apr 4, 2011 (first sale Jan 19, 2011). It reports $30,000 sold of $364,875 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.

Note · Jun 26, 2018

Same name, different state: "Stephen Coates" (A1) is a separate record

This page covers filings where the address state is A6. A separate record, "Stephen Coates" with address state A1, is listed on 1 filing — most recently by Caracara Silver Inc. (Jun 26, 2018). Both records have filings in the same period (Jun 26, 2018).

What this means Two records with one name were active at the same time. That can be one person listing different company addresses, or two different people. We keep them apart until a filing ties them together. Check both pages before you decide.

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

"Paid to sell it" = sales compensation recipients named on that filing (Item 12), each linked to FINRA BrokerCheck when a CRD number is reported.
