Cahill, spoke with Bloomberg tv regarding, among other things, Hillman’s recently announced business combination (the “Business Combination”) with Landcadia Holdings III, Inc. (“Landcadia”). A copy of the transcript is furnished hereto as Exhibit 99.1.

The information in this Item 7.01 and Exhibit 99.1 furnished hereto 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 (the “Securities Act”) or the Exchange Act, except as expressly set forth by specific reference in such filing.

Important Information About the Business Combination and Where to Find It

In connection with the proposed Business Combination, Landcadia intends to file a registration statement on Form S-4 (the “Registration Statement”) with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), which will include a proxy statement/prospectus and certain other related documents, that will be both the proxy statement to be distributed to holders of Landcadia’s common stock in connection with its solicitation of proxies for the vote by Landcadia’s stockholders with respect to the proposed Business Combination and other matters as may be described in the Registration Statement, as well as the prospectus relating to the offer and sale of the securities to be issued in the Business Combination. After the Registration Statement is declared effective, Landcadia will mail a definitive proxy statement/prospectus and other relevant documents to its stockholders. This document does not contain all the information that should be considered concerning the proposed Business Combination and is not intended to form the basis of any investment decision or any other decision in respect of the Business Combination. Landcadia’s stockholders, Hillman Holdco’s stockholders and other interested persons are advised to read, when available, the preliminary proxy statement/prospectus included in the Registration Statement and the amendments thereto and the definitive proxy statement/prospectus and other documents filed in connection with the proposed Business Combination, as these materials will contain important information about Hillman Holdco, Landcadia and the Business Combination. When available, the definitive proxy statement/prospectus and other relevant materials for the proposed Business Combination will be mailed to stockholders of Landcadia as of a record date to be established for voting on the proposed Business Combination and other matters as may be described in the Registration Statement. Landcadia stockholders and Hillman Holdco stockholders will also be able to obtain copies of the preliminary proxy statement, the definitive proxy statement and other documents filed with the SEC, without charge, once available, at the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov, or by directing a request to Landcadia’s secretary at 1510 West Loop South, Houston, Texas 77027, (713) 850-1010.

Participants in Solicitation

Landcadia and its directors and executive officers may be deemed participants in the solicitation of proxies from Landcadia’s stockholders with respect to the proposed Business Combination. A list of the names of those directors and executive officers and a description of their interests in Landcadia is contained in Landcadia’s prospectus dated October 8, 2020 relating to its initial public offering and, with respect to one director, a Current Report on Form 8-K dated January 6, 2021, each of which was filed with the SEC and is available free of charge at the SEC’s web site at www.sec.gov, or by directing a request to Landcadia’s secretary at 1510 West Loop South, Houston, Texas 77027, (713) 850-1010. To the extent such holdings of Landcadia’s securities may have changed since that time, such changes have been or will be reflected on Statements of Change in Ownership on Form 4 filed with the SEC. Additional information regarding the interests of such participants will be contained in the proxy statement/prospectus for the proposed Business Combination when available.

Hillman Holdco and its directors and executive officers may also be deemed to be participants in the solicitation of proxies from Landcadia’s stockholders with respect to the proposed Business Combination. Information about Hillman Holdco’s directors and executive officers is available in Hillman’s Form 10-K for the year ended December 28, 2019 and certain of its Current Reports on Form 8-K.

Forward-Looking Statements Legend

This Current Report on Form 8-K contains certain forward-looking statements within the meaning of the federal securities laws with respect to the proposed Business Combination between Hillman Holdco and Landcadia, including statements regarding the benefits of the Business Combination and the anticipated timing of the Business Combination.

Many factors could cause actual future events to differ materially from the forward-looking statements in this document, including but not limited to: (i) the risk that the proposed Business Combination disrupts Hillman’s current plans and operations; (ii) the ability to recognize the anticipated benefits of the proposed Business Combination, which may be affected by, among other things, competition, the ability of Hillman to grow and manage growth profitably and retain its key employees; (iii) costs related to the proposed Business Combination; (iv) changes in applicable laws or regulations; (v) the possibility that Landcadia or Hillman may be adversely affected by other economic, business, and/or competitive factors; (vi) the occurrence of any event, change or other circumstances that could give rise to the termination of the Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”), by and among Landcadia, Helios Sun Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation and a direct wholly-owned subsidiary of Landcadia, Hillman Holdco and CCMP Sellers’ Representative, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company in its capacity as the Stockholder Representative thereunder; (vii) the outcome of any legal proceedings that may be instituted against Landcadia or Hillman following the announcement of the Merger Agreement; (viii) the inability to complete the proposed Business Combination, including due to failure to obtain approval of the stockholders of Landcadia or Hillman, certain regulatory approvals or satisfy other conditions to closing in the Merger Agreement; (ix) the impact of COVID-19 on Hillman’s business and/or the ability of the parties to complete the proposed Business Combination; (x) the inability to obtain or maintain the listing of Landcadia’s shares of common stock on Nasdaq following the proposed transaction; or (xi) other risks and uncertainties indicated from time to time in the registration statement containing the proxy statement/prospectus relating to the proposed Business Combination, including those under “Risk Factors” therein, and in Landcadia’s or Hillman’s other filings with the SEC. The foregoing list of factors is not exhaustive. You should carefully consider the foregoing factors and the other risks and uncertainties described in the “Risk Factors” section of Landcadia’s prospectus dated October 8, 2020 relating to its initial public offering, the Registration Statement on Form S-4 and proxy statement/prospectus discussed above and other documents filed by Landcadia from time to time with the SEC. These filings identify and address other important risks and uncertainties that could cause actual events and results to differ materially from those contained in the forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made. Readers are cautioned not to put undue reliance on forward-looking statements, and Hillman Holdco and Landcadia assume no obligation and do not intend to update or revise these forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise. Neither Hillman Holdco nor Landcadia gives any assurance that either Hillman Holdco or Landcadia will achieve its expectations.
