Explanatory Note

This Current Report on Form 8-K/A (this “Amendment”) updates information disclosed in the Current Report on Form 8-K filed by Houlihan Lokey, Inc. (the “Company”) on September 25, 2018 (the “Original Filing”) relating to the Company’s Annual Meeting of Stockholders held on September 20, 2018 (the “Annual Meeting”). The sole purpose of this Amendment is to disclose the Company’s decision regarding how frequently the Company will conduct future advisory votes on the compensation of named executive officers (“Say on Pay Votes”). No other changes have been made to the Original Filing and this Amendment should be read in conjunction with the Original Filing.

Item 5.07. Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders.

As previously reported in the Original Filing, in a non-binding advisory vote on the frequency of future Say on Pay Votes held at the Annual Meeting, 346,068,767 votes were cast for one year, 2,756 votes were cast for two years, 515,719 votes were cast for three years, and 12,988 votes abstained. The Company has considered the outcome of this advisory vote and has determined, as was recommended with respect to this proposal by the Company’s board of directors in the proxy statement for the Annual Meeting, that the Company will hold future Say on Pay Votes on an annual basis until the occurrence of the next advisory vote on the frequency of Say on Pay Votes or the Company’s board of directors resolves to modify such frequency. The next advisory vote regarding the frequency of Say on Pay Votes is required to occur no later than the Company’s 2024 Annual Meeting of Stockholders.

Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, the registrant has duly caused this report to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned hereunto duly authorized.
