The offering is being made by means of a prospectus supplement to a previously filed Registration Statement on Form S-3, which was declared effective by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on October 27, 2015. A copy of the press release is furnished as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K (this &#8220;Current Report&#8221;) and is incorporated by reference into this Item 7.01.</div>

<div><br>
</div>

<div style="TEXT-ALIGN: left; FONT-FAMILY: 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; FONT-SIZE: 10pt">Any statements made in this Current Report that are not statements of historical fact, including statements about the Company&#8217;s beliefs and expectations, are forward-looking statements within the meaning of the federal securities laws and should be evaluated as such. In accordance with the <font style="FONT-FAMILY: 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; FONT-SIZE: 10pt">Safe Harbor Statement under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, this Current Report and associated press release contains, and certain oral statements made by our representatives from time to time may contain, forward-looking statements. Generally, forward-looking statements include information describing actions, events, results, strategies and expectations and are generally identifiable by use of the words &#8220;believes,&#8221; &#8220;expects,&#8221; &#8220;intends,&#8221; &#8220;anticipates,&#8221; &#8220;plans,&#8221; &#8220;seeks,&#8221; &#8220;estimates,&#8221; &#8220;projects,&#8221; &#8220;may,&#8221; &#8220;will,&#8221; &#8220;could,&#8221; &#8220;might,&#8221; or &#8220;continues&#8221; or similar expressions. These statements are based on the beliefs and assumptions of HC2's management and the management of HC2's subsidiaries. The Company believes these judgments are reasonable, but you should understand that these statements are not guarantees of performance or results, and the Company's actual results could differ materially from those expressed in the forward-looking statements due to a variety of important factors, both positive and negative, that may be revised or supplemented in subsequent reports on Forms 10-K, 10-Q and 8-K. Factors that could cause actual results, events and developments to differ include, without limitation, capital market conditions, the ability of HC2's subsidiaries to generate sufficient net income and cash flows to make upstream cash distributions, trading characteristics of the HC2 common stock, the ability of HC2 and its subsidiaries to identify any suitable future acquisition opportunities, our ability to realize efficiencies, cost savings, income and margin improvements, growth, economies of scale and other anticipated benefits of strategic transactions, integrating financial reporting of acquired or target businesses, completing pending and future acquisitions, including our pending acquisition of United Teacher Associates Insurance Company and&#160;Continental&#160;General Insurance Company,&#160;and dispositions, litigation and other contingent liabilities and&#160;changes in regulations, taxes and risks that may affect the performance of the operating subsidiaries of HC2. Additional information concerning these and other factors can be found in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K, Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and Current Reports on Form 8-K. You should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements. All forward-looking statements attributable to the Company or persons acting on its behalf are expressly qualified in their entirety by the foregoing cautionary statements. All such statements speak only as of the date made, and the Company undertakes no obligation to update or revise publicly any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.</font></div>

Item 7.01 — Regulation FD Disclosure.
On November 3, 2015, HC2 Holdings, Inc. ("HC2" or the "Company") issued a press release announcing a proposed offering of its common stock in a registered public offering. The offering is being made by means of a prospectus supplement to a previously filed Registration Statement on Form S-3, which was declared effective by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on October 27, 2015. A copy of the press release is furnished as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K (this "Current Report") and is incorporated by reference into this Item 7.01.
This Current Report shall not constitute an offer to sell or a solicitation of an offer to buy securities, nor shall there be any sale of securities in any state or jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to registration or qualification under the securities laws of any such state or jurisdiction.
The information furnished with this Current Report (including Exhibit 99.1) shall not be deemed "filed" for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section, nor shall it be deemed incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act, except as expressly set forth by specific reference in such a filing.
Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
Any statements made in this Current Report that are not statements of historical fact, including statements about the Company's beliefs and expectations, are forward-looking statements within the meaning of the federal securities laws and should be evaluated as such. In accordance with the
Safe Harbor Statement under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, this Current Report and associated press release contains, and certain oral statements made by our representatives from time to time may contain, forward-looking statements. Generally, forward-looking statements include information describing actions, events, results, strategies and expectations and are generally identifiable by use of the words "believes," "expects," "intends," "anticipates," "plans," "seeks," "estimates," "projects," "may," "will," "could," "might," or "continues" or similar expressions. These statements are based on the beliefs and assumptions of HC2's management and the management of HC2's subsidiaries. The Company believes these judgments are reasonable, but you should understand that these statements are not guarantees of performance or results, and the Company's actual results could differ materially from those expressed in the forward-looking statements due to a variety of important factors, both positive and negative, that may be revised or supplemented in subsequent reports on Forms 10-K, 10-Q and 8-K. Factors that could cause actual results, events and developments to differ include, without limitation, capital market conditions, the ability of HC2's subsidiaries to generate sufficient net income and cash flows to make upstream cash distributions, trading characteristics of the HC2 common stock, the ability of HC2 and its subsidiaries to identify any suitable future acquisition opportunities, our ability to realize efficiencies, cost savings, income and margin improvements, growth, economies of scale and other anticipated benefits of strategic transactions, integrating financial reporting of acquired or target businesses, completing pending and future acquisitions, including our pending acquisition of United Teacher Associates Insurance Company and Continental General Insurance Company, and dispositions, litigation and other contingent liabilities and changes in regulations, taxes and risks that may affect the performance of the operating subsidiaries of HC2. Additional information concerning these and other factors can be found in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K, Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and Current Reports on Form 8-K. You should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements. All forward-looking statements attributable to the Company or persons acting on its behalf are expressly qualified in their entirety by the foregoing cautionary statements. All such statements speak only as of the date made, and the Company undertakes no obligation to update or revise publicly any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.
