Regulation A 

Regulation A is an exemption from the registration requirements, allowing companies to offer and sell their securities without having to register the offering with the SEC. 

Companies relying on a Regulation A exemption can offer and sell their securities to the public under two different tiers that have two different requirements—Tier 1 and Tier 2.   Under both tiers, the issuer must file an offering statement on Form 1-A with the SEC.

Tier 1, for offerings of up to $20 million in a 12-month period; and

Tier 2, for offerings of up to $50 million in a 12-month period.

For offerings of up to $20 million, companies can elect to proceed under the requirements for either Tier 1 or Tier 2.

Companies issuing offerings under Tier 1 are not required to produce reports continually. They are only required to issue a report on the final status of the offering.

Companies offering securities under Tier 2 must produce continual reports on the offering, including its final status.

Under Regulation A, other forms we file are:
1-A/A: Pre-qualification amendment for offering statement under Regulation A
1-A POS: Post-qualification amendment to a 1-A offering statement
1-A-W: Withdrawal of offering statement under Regulation A
1-K: Annual Report Pursuant to Regulation A
1-K/A: Amendment to Annual Report Pursuant to Regulation A
