Reading the filings
- Both rounds closed exactly full.Offered and sold are identical in each filing and remaining is zero, the signature of a priced round filed after it was papered. The 2020 round averages about $711,800 across 14 investors; the 2021 round about $3,828,000 across 10. Check size grew more than fivefold in fifteen months.
- The filing landed after the press release.Gilde announced the round on July 14, 2021. The Form D reports a first sale of July 1 and was filed on July 19, within the 15 day window but five days after the market heard about it. The announced figure was $38 million; the filing says $38,283,343.
- The founders leave the filing between the two rounds.In April 2020 the related persons are Palley, Moraveji and Yule as officers, with Wu, Neil and Raanes as directors. By July 2021 only Wu and Raanes remain, Raanes has moved from director to chief executive, and two new directors appear, one of them Gilde general partner Geoff Pardo.
- $70 million stated, $48.25 million filed.The chief executive told Mergermarket in 2024 that Spire had raised $70 million. The two Form D filings account for $48,248,449. The gap fits the pre-2020 history, which predates this CIK, and raises made under Section 4(a)(2) rather than Regulation D, where no Form D is required. EDGAR simply does not show it.
- The $35 million growth round never appears.In early 2024 the company was in market for $35 million with Match Point Partners as adviser, hoping to close by the end of April on the way to a 2026 listing. No Form D was filed after July 2021. On September 30, 2024 it was acquired instead, in a transaction both parties called non-cash, meaning the consideration was stock. A growth round that does not close and a stock-for-stock sale five months later are one event seen from two sides.
- The asset kept its name.Two years on, Wellinks raised its own $10 million and markets the FDA-cleared Spire Remote Patient Monitoring System as its core product. A sixth US patent, 12376792, was granted August 5, 2025 and is still assigned to Spire, Inc.
