The short version

Steve White is listed as a director on 1 SEC Form D filing by 1 issuer in Oct 2017: Business First Bancshares, Inc. (Baton Rouge, LA — commercial banking — 2017; $85M reported sold to 88 investors).

What this means One deal on file with the SEC, filed Oct 2017. 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 Andrew D. McLindon (1 shared filing), Arthur Price (1 shared filing), C. Stewart Slack (1 shared filing), David A. Montgomery, Jr. (1 shared filing), David L. Laxton, III (1 shared filing) and 11 others.

What this means These are the other officers, directors or promoters the companies named on the same forms — the team around Steve. 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) — none found.

What this means Nothing turned up where we looked (3 sources). That does not prove there is nothing — it means none was found in those sources on that date.

We compared 1 public filing for Steve White and found 5 differences: Same name, different state: "Steve White" (CA) is a separate record; Same name, different state: "Steve White" (AZ) is a separate record; 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.

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).
