Item 7.01 Regulation FD Disclosure.

On February 23, 2015, Hennessy Capital Acquisition Corp. (the “Company”) issued a press release announcing the results of its special meeting of stockholders of the Company relating to the previously announced acquisition of School Bus Holdings, Inc., which, through its subsidiaries, conducts its business under the “Blue Bird” name (the “Business Combination”), held today. A copy of the press release is furnished as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated herein by reference.

The press release issued by the Company and furnished herewith reports that the Company’s public stockholders holding an aggregate of 4,005,300 Company common shares (representing approximately 35% of the total outstanding shares held by the Company’s public stockholders) did not redeem their shares, thereby satisfying the $100.0 million minimum cash requirement in the purchase agreement relating to the Business Combination. The closing of the business combination is expected to occur on Tuesday, February 24, 2015, and the Company’s common stock and warrants are expected to start trading under the symbols “BLBD” and “BLBDW” on The Nasdaq Stock Market on February 25, 2015.

Forward-Looking Statements

This Current Report on Form 8-K may include forward-looking statements within the meaning of the “safe harbor” provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. All statements, other than statements of historical facts, included in this Current Report on Form 8-K that address activities, events or developments that the Company expects or anticipates will or may occur in the future are forward-looking statements and are identified with, but not limited to, words such as “believe” and “expect”. These statements are based on certain assumptions and analyses made by the Company in light of its experience and its perception of historical trends, current conditions and expected future developments as well as other factors it believes are appropriate in the circumstances. Actual results may differ materially from those expressed herein due to many factors such as, but not limited to, the performances of the Company and Blue Bird, the ability of the combined company to be successful in its appeal of the delisting determination by the staff of the Listing Qualifications Department of the Nasdaq Stock Market and to meet Nasdaq’s listing standards, including having the requisite number of stockholders, and the risks identified in the Company’s prior and future filings with the SEC (available at www.sec.gov), including the Company’s definitive proxy statement filed in connection with the Business Combination (and the supplement to the definitive proxy statement, dated February 10, 2015) and the Company’s final prospectus dated January 16, 2014. These statements speak only as of the date they are made and the Company undertakes no obligation to update any forward-looking statements contained herein to reflect events or circumstances which arise after the date of this Current Report on Form 8-K.
