- Location is the address under “Principal Place of Business and Contact Information” on the filing, not the “Jurisdiction of Incorporation/Organization”. Most startups incorporate in Delaware but work somewhere else.
- First sale is the day the first investor committed, which can be months before the filing date. Not yet means the company filed before that day came, so the amount sold is $0 for now; it shows up when the company amends the filing.
- $0 next to a first-sale date means an investor had committed but no money had come in when the company filed.
- New is a company's first filing for an offering. Amended updates an earlier filing, usually because more money came in, and shows the new total; that money was already counted when it was first reported.
Late filings, not in the day's total
New filings for offerings whose first sale came more than a year before Oct 26. The filing is new, but the money was raised long before.
- Different Labs, Inc.: one filing for an offering first sold on Jan 5, 2024 ($48.1M).
