Financials
FY2020–FY2025 · from SEC filings · hover any figure for its sourceFigures as reported by the issuer in the filing shown on hover. Each year’s pill shows the assurance level of its filed statements — audited, reviewed (CPA review, less than an audit), or unaudited; no pill means the filing didn’t state one. Headcount is the filing’s point-in-time count, not a year-end average. Manually corrected figures are marked “Corrected”.
Valuation over rounds
Post-money = pre-money + amount raised · caps markedA dashed amber step is a SAFE/note valuation cap — a conversion ceiling agreed for that instrument, not a priced valuation of the company. Steps are not comparable across bases.

Chuck Park began Charis Winery Inc after years of winemaking as a hobby. Chuck bootstrapped the beginning of the company thus avoiding debt. In year one Charis produced about 500 bottles of wine, in year 10 Charis currently produces about 10,000 bottles. Chuck currently is the majority shareholder of the company but does not take a salary from the business. Please refer to our Risk Factors section for more details.
Cole began his career with Charis in 2022 and is immersing himself into the elements of both wine and spirit production. Cole has an exceptional palate which serves him well in his endeavors in the production of Charis wine and spirits.
Morgan has been working in the tasting room for almost 3 years. She started at Charis as a change of pace for her family during the pandemic, and it didn’t take long for her to be fully engrossed in the wine making industry. You can find Morgan in the tasting room, having way more fun at work than she thinks she is supposed to have. Morgan says her favorite from Charis: the 2022 blend of Iron Horse, but I also love Blackberry Bounce; I keep a bottle of it my freezer at home!
After raising her sons, Robin became intrigued with quality extra virgin olive oils and balsamic vinegars, she has dedicated herself to the study of oils and vinegars and their uses. In 2015 began working with an importer to bring in quality products for the Tasting room. Robin oversees packaging and sales for the oils and vinegars.

SEC filings
About this data. Figures are compiled from public sources — SEC EDGAR filings (Form C, C-AR, 1-A, 1-K) and funding-platform pages — and may be delayed, incomplete, or restated by the issuer. Financial statements are as reported by the issuer; each year is labeled with its assurance level (audited / reviewed / unaudited). A valuation cap is the conversion ceiling of a SAFE or convertible note, not an agreed company valuation; post-money figures are computed as pre-money plus amount raised and are not a traded price. Crowdonomics is not a broker-dealer, funding portal, or investment adviser; nothing here is investment advice or an offer to sell securities. Verify all figures against the linked EDGAR filings.
