Item 7.01 Regulation FD Disclosure.

As previously disclosed, on June 5, 2016, Hercules Offshore, Inc. (the “Company”) and certain of its U.S. subsidiaries (together with the Company, the “Debtors”), filed voluntary petitions for relief (the “Chapter 11 Case”) under chapter 11 of title 11 of the United States Code in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware (the “Court”). The Chapter 11 Case is being administered under the caption In re: Hercules Offshore, Inc. (Case No. 16-11385).

On July 20, 2016, the Debtors filed a monthly operating report for the period beginning June 5, 2016 and ending June 30, 2016 (the “Monthly Operating Report”) with the Court. The Monthly Operating Report is furnished as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.

The information in this Item 7.01 and the exhibit hereto is being furnished, not filed. Accordingly, such information will not be incorporated by reference into any registration statement filed by the Company under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. By filing this Form 8-K and furnishing this information, the Company makes no statement or admission as to the materiality of any information in Item 7.01 or the exhibit hereto.

Cautionary Statement Regarding Monthly Operating Report

The Company cautions investors and potential investors not to place undue reliance upon the information contained in the Monthly Operating Report, which was not prepared for the purpose of providing the basis for an investment decision relating to any of the securities of the Company. The Monthly Operating Report is limited in scope, covers a limited time period and has been prepared solely for the purpose of complying with the monthly reporting requirements applicable in the Chapter 11 Case and is in a format acceptable to the U.S. Trustee. The forecasts contained in the Monthly Operating Report reflect estimates and assumptions made by management of the Company with respect to cash receipts and disbursements, as well as numerous other factors. These factors are difficult to predict accurately and in many cases are outside of the Company’s control. Consequently, it is likely that actual results will differ from those reflected in the Monthly Operating Report and such differences may be significant. The Company has not made and does not make any representation to any person regarding the Company’s future results. Furthermore, the Company is not required to publicly update the Monthly Operating Report to reflect more current facts or estimates or the occurrence of future events, including if the facts, estimates and assumptions upon which the Monthly Operating Report is based are erroneous. The Monthly Operating Report was not audited or reviewed by independent accountants, was not prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States, is in a format prescribed by applicable bankruptcy laws, and is subject to future adjustment (which may be material) and reconciliation. There can be no assurance that, from the perspective of an investor or potential investor in the Company’s securities, the Monthly Operating Report is complete. The Monthly Operating Report also contains information for periods which are shorter or otherwise different from those required in the Company’s reports pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and such information might not be indicative of the Company’s financial condition or operating results for the period that would be reflected in the Company’s financial statements or in its reports pursuant to the Exchange Act. Results set forth in the Monthly Operating Report should not be viewed as indicative of future results.
