Entertainment Arts Research Files Form 1-A Amendment
A Form 1-A is the offering document a company files with the SEC to raise money under Regulation A, and a 1-A/A is an amended version of it, filed to update or correct the original before or during an offering.
Entertainment Arts Research, Inc. filed one of those amendments on EDGAR on Oct. 13, 2026.
Key takeaways
- Entertainment Arts Research, Inc. (SEC central index key 0001083468) filed a 1-A/A on Oct. 13, 2026, under accession number 0001683168-26-007771.
- EDGAR lists the submission size at 36 MB, a large package by the standards of most filings.

- Investors should read the full amended document on EDGAR for the terms, risk factors and financial statements, none of which are covered here.
What happened
According to EDGAR’s latest-filings listing, the company submitted a Form 1-A/A early on the morning of Oct. 13, 2026. The filing index shows the company as the filer and gives the accession number above, which is the unique ID EDGAR assigns to every submission.
The 36 MB size is the figure for the whole submission. A number that large usually reflects the attachments bundled with the filing, not the size of any proposed raise. The index page alone does not reveal what changed in the amendment. Readers need to open the underlying documents to see the revised offering terms, updated financials or changed disclosures.
How it works
Regulation A is a securities exemption that lets eligible companies sell shares to the public without a full registration statement such as an S-1. Promoters often call it a “mini IPO,” though the comparison is loose. The process runs through the SEC.
A company first files an offering statement on Form 1-A. SEC staff review it and often send comments asking for more detail or clearer language. The company responds by filing amendments, each labeled 1-A/A. Once the staff are satisfied, the SEC “qualifies” the offering statement, and only then can sales be completed.
Regulation A has two tiers. Tier 1 covers smaller raises of up to $20 million in a 12-month period. Tier 2 allows up to $75 million, requires audited financial statements and brings ongoing reporting duties. Tier 2 also limits how much non-accredited investors may put in, unless the securities are listed on a national exchange. The filing index does not say which tier applies here, so this article doesn’t assume one.
Companies may also “test the waters,” which means gauging investor interest before filing or before qualification. They do so under rules that restrict what can be said and when money can be taken.
Key terms
- Form 1-A: the offering statement for Regulation A, with company information, a description of the securities, risk factors and financial statements.
- 1-A/A: an amendment to a previously filed Form 1-A.
- Qualification: the SEC’s clearance that lets a Regulation A offering proceed. It is not an endorsement of the company or its securities.
- Accession number: EDGAR’s unique ID for each submission.
- Accredited investor: a person or entity meeting SEC income, net-worth or other tests, treated as better able to bear investment risk.
What to watch next
Several things will show where this filing leads:
- Further amendments. Repeated 1-A/A filings often follow SEC comments. Another one would suggest the review is still going.
- A qualification notice. If the SEC qualifies the offering, the company can begin or continue selling under the final offering circular.
- Content changes. Revised risk factors, new financial statements or different offering terms would be the substance of this amendment. Reading a redline or comparing the new version with the earlier filing is the best way to find them.
- Post-qualification reporting. Tier 2 issuers must file periodic reports, including annual and semiannual reports and current-event updates.
FAQ
Does a 1-A/A mean the offering is approved? No. An amendment is a revision. Approval in the sense of qualification is a separate SEC action.
Does a large filing size mean a large offering? Not necessarily. File size reflects the documents attached, including exhibits, not the dollar amount of the raise.
Where can I read the filing? On the SEC’s EDGAR system, by searching the company name or its central index key, 0001083468, and opening the filing with accession number 0001683168-26-007771.
