John Hoidas - Uhlmann Price SecuritiesJohn Hoidas (CRD#: 1937971) is currently a financial advisor at Uhlmann Price Securities in Evanston, Illinois. Hoidas has been in the securities industry for over fifteen years.

Hoidas currently has four pending customer complaints, alleging that he violated sales practices. Some of the complaints are regarding the sale of interests in GPB Capital Holdings.

GPB Capital Holdings is a New York-based investment firm that offers exempt, private-placement securities. These investments inherently have a high degree of risk due to their nature as unregistered securities offerings (and without regulatory oversight).

The investment firm raised $1.8 billion from investors through private placements that invested in automotive dealerships, the waste management industry, and middle-market lending. These investments were high risk and high commission (nearly 8%) private placements.

GPB Capital has been embroiled in legal disputes in the recent past. In November 2019, GPB informed investors that they would not be supplying the audited financial reports by their deadline, even though investors have been awaiting the audits since April. 

In June 2019, GPB Capital Holdings reported losses in the value of two of its investment funds: GPB Holdings II and GPB Automotive Portfolio. GPB Holdings II saw a decline in value of 25.4% and GPB Automotive Portfolio has decreased by 39%. GPB Holdings II and GPB Automotive Portfolio make up the majority of GPB Capital Holdings’ portfolio, raising $1.27 billion from investors.

GPB Capital Holdings manages the following nine private placements:

GPB Capital Holdings’ other funds also reported declines in the estimated value of 25% to 73%.
