It just so happens that there is a "Security Research Associates, Inc." that is referenced in at least two SEC filings. That company was founded in the same year as the Larkspur company (which is the one referenced in the Wave PR).
The "Security Research Associates, Inc." is a very interesting company... with deep ties to Missouri and one family of mutual fund managers who recently sold to Illington Funds.
But, like I said... THAT one is PROBABLY not related to the San Franciso/Larkspur one.
