The facts
- Who files
- An issuer that has completed a Tier 2 offering under Regulation A, for the fiscal year in which its offering statement was qualified and every fiscal year after, unless its reporting obligation has been suspended or terminated. Source
- How often
- Annually; Form 1-K is also used, as a one-off, for a special financial report when the issuer's offering statement did not already contain the audited financial statements Regulation A requires. Source
- Deadline
- Within 120 calendar days of the issuer's fiscal year end; a special financial report under this cover is due within 120 calendar days of the qualification date of the offering statement. Source
- Format
- Other. Filed electronically on EDGAR, as text/HTML document attachments; no Inline XBRL or other structured-data requirement for Form 1-K was found. Source
- How it is filed
- Filing routes recorded for the SEC: EDGAR (Electronic Data Gathering, Analysis, and Retrieval); Investment Adviser Registration Depository (IARD) and Private Fund Reporting Depository (PFRD); Central Registration Depository (CRD). See how firms file with the SEC.
- Status
- In forceThe brief for this round asked whether the correct name for the Regulation A annual report is Form 1-A or Form 1-K. Form 1-A is the Regulation A offering statement itself (filed before an offering), not the annual report; the SEC's own Forms Index and its Regulation A guidance for issuers both confirm the annual report is Form 1-K.
