The Schedule 13D, dated August 18, 2015, is filed by ORIX HLHZ Holding LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“HLHZ”),
and ORIX Corporation, a Japan corporation (“ORIX” and, together with HLHZ, the “Reporting Persons”), with
respect to Class A Common Stock of Houlihan Lokey, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Issuer”), is hereby amended as
set forth below. This Amendment No. 13 to Schedule 13D does not restate disclosures in the original Schedule 13D that are not being
amended, and should be read in conjunction with the original Schedule 13D. Capitalized terms used but not defined herein have the
meanings provided in the original Schedule 13D.
The purpose of this Amendment No. 13 is to report the conversion by HLHZ, on a one-for-one basis, of 3,500,000 shares of Class B Common Stock (entitled to 10 votes per share) into the same number of shares of Class A Common Stock (entitled to one vote per share) on February 21, 2019 (the “Conversion”). The purpose of this Conversion was to reduce HLHZ’s percentage of the voting power of the Issuer’s outstanding capital stock to approximately the same level as HLHZ’s percentage ownership of the outstanding capital stock of the Issuer, thereby reducing certain regulatory and other legal burdens on HLHZ and the Issuer.
Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer
Item 5 of the Original Schedule 13D is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as follows:
The 31,521,529 shares of Class A Common Stock reported as beneficially owned by the Reporting Persons consist of 6,377,935 shares held directly by HLHZ and indirectly by ORIX, as HLHZ is an indirect, wholly owned subsidiary of ORIX (the “Subject Shares”) and 25,143,594 shares held by the HL Voting Trust. Other than the 4,109,721 shares of Class A Common Stock held by HLHZ, these shares are receivable upon conversion of a like number of shares of Class B Common Stock:
Shares of Class A Common Stock Beneficially Owned | Percentage of Class A Common Stock Represented(a) | |
Reporting Persons | 6,377,935 | 15.6% |
HL Voting Trust(b) | 25,143,594 | 42.1% |
Total | 31,521,529 | 48.2% |
(a) | Based on (i) 38,042,286 shares of Class A Common Stock outstanding as reported in the Issuer’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on February 5, 2019, after giving effect to the Conversion, and (ii) 27,370,350 shares of Class B Common Stock outstanding of which 25,143,594 shares of Class B Common stock are subject to the HL Voting Trust as of the date hereof and 2,268,214 shares of Class B Common Stock are owned directly by HLHZ, after giving effect to the Conversion. Each calculation assumes conversion of the Class B Common Stock into the number of shares of Class A Common Stock listed in that row and assumes no other holders of Class B Common Stock convert their shares. |
(b) | Based on 25,143,594 shares of Class B Common Stock subject to the HL Voting Trust as reported in the Issuer’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on February 5, 2019. |
CUSIP No. 441593100 | SCHEDULE 13D | Page 5 of 6 |
By reason of the Stockholders’ Agreement, the Reporting Persons may be deemed to beneficially own the shares in the HL Voting Trust; however, the Reporting Persons disclaim beneficial ownership of such shares. Together, the parties to the Stockholders’ Agreement hold approximately 89.2% of the voting power of the Issuer’s outstanding capital stock.
No other person is known to the Reporting Persons to have the right to receive or the power to direct the receipt of dividends from, or the proceeds from the sale of, the Subject Shares beneficially owned by any of the Reporting Persons.
