Dominion Capital LLC... what do we really know?? As part of my DD, I've recently been trying to follow the money trail related to Dominion Capital.? Here's what I've found so far:
?
1.? Dominion appears to be a one-man operation run by an individual by the name of Mikhail Gurevich.
2.? Dominion was founded in the summer of 2011 as indicated on some of their SEC filings.
3.? They list a business address on Broadway in NYC, yet all of their SEC filings list the address 3 Fraser Lane, Westport, CT (a house).
4.? A check of Westport, CT property tax records indicates that this house is owned by Yefim Gurevich (likely Mikhail's father).
5.? Mikhail is a fairly young guy who received his MBA from Boston University a few years ago.
?
Here's a link to all SEC filings by Dominion:?http://www.sec.gov/cgi-bin/browse-edgar?action=getcompany&CIK=0001532798&owner=exclude&count=40
?
I'm still doing more research, but here's what I believe to be true:
?
Dominion Capital was founded approximately two years ago for the SOLE purpose of funneling private equity into Amarantus.? From their SEC Form D filings, they've taken in approximately $1.1M of private equity.? They do not appear to be a large operation at all, and from what I can tell do not hold major stakes in any companies besides Amarantus.
?
The real question is: Who's providing the cash?? It seems that the umbrella of Dominion is being used to allow someone (or a VERY small group of people) to build an increasing stake in Amarantus.? There's nothing wrong with that per se, but I think we need to be careful about putting too much stock in statements from Mikhail about AMBS's performance when it would appear that Dominion's only reason for existence is to support Amarantus and the interests of a handful of private investors.
?
Has anyone reached any similar conclusions about Dominion?? Any venture capital types on here who can shed some additional light on what we're seeing here?
