KEY TAKEAWAYS
SEC Form S-1 is only for corporations based in the United States and must be filed before shares are listed on a national exchange. It is essentially a registration statement that is often filed in connection with an initial public offering.
Any amendments or changes that have to be made by the issuer are filed under SEC Form S-1/A.
The issuer is liable for any material misrepresentations or omissions.

KEY TAKEAWAYS
When a person or group acquires 5% or more of a company's shares, they must report it to the Securities and Exchange Commission.
Among the questions Schedule 13D asks is the purpose of the transaction, such as a takeover or merger.
If the beneficial owner's holdings change by 1% or more, they must amend their Schedule 13D.



Requirement to Disclose Material Changes
If there are any material changes to the information filed in Schedule 13D, the beneficial owners must amend their Schedule 13D within two days. A material change includes any increase or decrease of at least 1% in the percentage of the class of securities held by the beneficial owner.

Most Schedule 13D filings are available for viewing in the SEC's EDGAR database. The database presents Form 13D as “SC 13D – General statement of acquisition of beneficial ownership.” Any amended form is denoted as SC 13D/A
