The short version

Thomas Gibson is listed as a director on 3 SEC Form D filings by 2 issuers between Oct 2009 and Jan 2016: Dealer Tire Holdings, LLC (Cleveland, OH — industry reported as "Other" — 2015–2016; $1.68B reported sold to 56 investors) and Dealer Tire, LLC (Cleveland, OH — retailing — 2009; $157.9M reported sold to 2 investors).

What this means 2 separate companies raised money with this person listed as director, over about 7 years. Across those companies the filings report $1.84B sold in total.

Listed alongside David P. Cosper (3 shared filings), Dean T. Mueller (3 shared filings), Mark O'Neil (3 shared filings), Mohan Reddy (3 shared filings, management entity), Scott C. Mueller (3 shared filings) and 12 others.

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

All 2 issuers belong to the sponsor group Dealer Tire (4 issuers, $1.84B reported sold, 2009–2025).

What this means A sponsor group is one team that sets up a new company for each deal. Dealer Tire has 4 companies on file and $1.84B 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, CO, CT, DC, DE, FINRA, FL, GA, HI, ID, IL, KS, KY, LA, MA, MD, ME, MI, MO, MS, MT, NASAA, NC, ND, NH, NM, NV, NY, OH, OK, OR, PA, RI, SC, SD, TN, TX, UT, VT, WA, WI, WV, WY) — 2 SEC releases, 1 state regulator order, 18 bankruptcy cases matching the name listed in Key records below.

What this means 21 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 Thomas Gibson and found 6 differences, 2 worth asking the sponsor about: OH securities regulator cease and desist order naming Thomas Gibson (Feb 12, 2003); Thomas Gibson is no longer listed on the Jan 5, 2017 amendment; 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 Thomas Gibson — 2 worth asking about (compared 3 filings on Oct 24, 2026)

Worth asking · Feb 12, 2003

OH securities regulator cease and desist order naming Thomas Gibson (Feb 12, 2003)

Ohio Department of Commerce, Division of Securities issued a Cease and Desist Order dated Feb 12, 2003. Respondents as listed: Thomas M. Gibson. Matched to Thomas Gibson. Our match estimate: 44%.

What this means A state regulator issued an order (cease-and-desist, consent order, fine or bar). Read the order; ask the sponsor what it covered.

Sources
Worth asking · Jan 5, 2016 – Jan 5, 2017

Thomas Gibson is no longer listed on the Jan 5, 2017 amendment — Dealer Tire Holdings, LLC

Thomas Gibson appears on the Jan 5, 2016 Form D/A (director) but not on the Jan 5, 2017 Form D/A for the same offering.

What this means People leave, and the issuer must list only current officers, directors and promoters. It is still worth asking why this person left and who replaced them.

Sources
Note · Feb 8, 2024

Same name, different state: "Thomas Gibson" (UT) is a separate record

This page covers filings where the address state is FL or OH. A separate record, "Thomas Gibson" with address state UT, is listed on 1 filing — most recently by Finwise Bancorp (Feb 8, 2024). The two records do not overlap in time: this page runs Jan 5, 2015 to Jan 5, 2016; the other has one filing dated Feb 8, 2024.

What this means Could be the same person who moved, or two people with the same name. We keep them apart until a filing ties them together. Check both pages before you decide.

Note · Jan 5, 2016 – Oct 24, 2019

Same name, different state: "Thomas J. Gibson" (GA) is a separate record

This page covers filings where the address state is FL or OH. A separate record, "Thomas J. Gibson" with address state GA, is listed on 2 filings — most recently by STREAMLINE HEALTH SOLUTIONS INC. (Oct 24, 2019). Both records have filings in the same period (Jan 5, 2016).

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.

Note · Apr 16, 2012 – Feb 12, 2013

Same name, different state: "Thomas Lee Gibson" (TN) is a separate record

This page covers filings where the address state is FL or OH. A separate record, "Thomas Lee Gibson" with address state TN, is listed on 7 filings — most recently by DTC Private Equity IV-Q, L.P. (Feb 12, 2013). The two records do not overlap in time: this page runs Jan 5, 2015 to Jan 5, 2016; the other runs Apr 16, 2012 to Feb 12, 2013.

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).

Sources

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 Thomas Gibson.

Same business address

2 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

Business registration (state registry / Secretary of State)

Individuals are not matched to business registrations — registries list companies, and a name alone is not enough to tie a person to one. Officers and managers appear by name inside each matched company's record on the issuer pages. Registries searched: AL (Alabama Secretary of State — Business Entity Records (arc-sos.state.al.us), searched by issuer name, data as of Oct 24, 2026); CO (Colorado Secretary of State — Business Entities in Colorado (data.colorado.gov), data as of Oct 23, 2026); CT (Connecticut Secretary of the State — Business Registry (data.ct.gov), data as of Oct 24, 2026); FL (Florida Department of State, Division of Corporations — quarterly corporate data file (Sunbiz), data as of Oct 7, 2026); NY (New York Department of State — Corporations and Other Entities (data.ny.gov: All Filings + Active Corporations), data as of Oct 20, 2026); OR (Oregon Secretary of State — Active Businesses, All (data.oregon.gov), data as of Oct 20, 2026); PA (Pennsylvania Department of State — Registered Businesses, Current (data.pa.gov), data as of Oct 6, 2026); TX (Texas Comptroller — Active Franchise Taxpayers incl. Secretary of State file data (data.texas.gov), data as of Oct 24, 2026). Registries of other states have not been searched: many publish no bulk file and require a CAPTCHA or bot challenge on their search page, which we do not bypass (Delaware, for example, offers no public bulk file).

Adviser registration (Form ADV)

None of the 2 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 1 records on 1 issuer

Property records are matched to companies only, never to individuals, so none are matched to Thomas Gibson 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 2 issuers this person is listed on — 1 issuer has property records: Dealer Tire, LLC (1).
