Our Company
We are a diversified holding company focused on owning businesses that we believe can generate sustainable free cash flow or attractive returns on investment. As of September 30, 2015, our principal operating subsidiaries include the following assets: (i) Spectrum Brands, our subsidiary that provides global branded consumer products; (ii) FGL, our subsidiary that provides life insurance and annuity products; (iii) Front Street, our subsidiary engaged in the business of providing long-term reinsurance, including reinsurance to the specialty insurance sector of fixed, deferred and payout annuities; (iv) HAMCO, which, through its subsidiaries, provides financing and engages in asset management across a range of industries; and (v) Compass, our subsidiary that is engaged in the business of owning, operating, acquiring, exploiting and developing conventional oil and natural gas assets.
On November 8, 2015, FGL, Anbang, AB Infinity, and Merger Sub entered into the FGL Merger Agreement. Pursuant to the FGL Merger Agreement and subject to the terms and conditions set forth therein, Merger Sub will merge with and into FGL, with FGL continuing as the surviving entity, which will become a direct, wholly-owned subsidiary of AB Infinity and an indirect, wholly-owned subsidiary of Anbang. Pursuant to the FGL Merger Agreement, at the effective time of the FGL Merger, each issued and outstanding share of FGL common stock will be cancelled and converted automatically into the right to receive $26.80 in cash, without interest, other than any shares of common stock owned by FGL as treasury stock or otherwise or owned by Anbang, AB Infinity or Merger Sub (which will be cancelled and no payment will be made with respect thereto), shares of common stock granted pursuant to FGL’s equity plans and those shares of common stock with respect to which appraisal rights under Delaware law are properly exercised and not withdrawn. See Part I, Item I. “Business—Our Operating Subsidiaries—FGL—the FGL Merger” of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the Fiscal Year ended September 30, 2015 (the “2015 Annual Report”).
On December 1, 2015, pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, dated as of October 8, 2015 (the "Purchase Agreement"), between Compass Energy Operating, LLC (“Compass Energy”), and Indigo Minerals LLC, Compass Energy completed the sale of certain of its oil and gas interests located in the Holly, Waskom and Danville Fields in East Texas and North Louisiana to Indigo Resources LLC (as successor to Indigo Minerals LLC, the "Buyer"). At closing, proceeds from the transaction, which were approximately $147.5 million, less estimated expenses of $1.9 million, were used primarily to reduce borrowings under Compass Energy’s existing credit facility. Following the closing, pursuant to the terms of the Purchase Agreement, Compass received an additional $4.2 million in connection with resolving certain title and consent matters.
We were incorporated in Delaware in 1954 under the name Zapata Corporation and reincorporated in Nevada in April 1999 under the same name. On December 23, 2009, we reincorporated in Delaware under the name “Harbinger Group Inc.” Effective March 9, 2015, we changed our name from Harbinger Group Inc. to HRG Group, Inc. Our common stock trades on the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) under the symbol “HRG.”
