Item 7.01. Regulation FD Disclosure.

As previously disclosed on a Current Report on Form 8-K filed on February 1, 2016 with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) ~~on February 1~~, ~~2016,~~ on January 31, 2016, RCS Capital Corporation (the “Company”) and certain of its wholly-owned subsidiaries (collectively with the Company, the “First Wave Debtors”) filed voluntary petitions for reorganization in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware (the “Court”) seeking relief under Chapter 11 of Title 11 of the United States Code (the “Bankruptcy Code”). The Company’s Chapter 11 cases are being jointly administered for procedural purposes only under the caption In re RCS Capital Corporation, et al., Case No. 16-10223(MFW) (together, the “Chapter 11 Cases”). In addition, certain of the Company’s other subsidiaries (collectively with the First Wave Debtors, the “Debtors”) filed voluntary petitions for reorganization in the Court in a subsequent “pre-pack” Chapter 11 bankruptcy filing on March 26, 2016. The Debtors will continue to operate their businesses as “debtors-in-possession” under the jurisdiction of the Court and in accordance with the applicable provisions of the Bankruptcy Code and orders of the Court.

On ~~March~~May 312, 2016, the First Wave Debtors filed their monthly operating report for the month ended ~~February~~March 2931, 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.

The information furnished under this Item 7.01 of this Current Report on Form 8-K, including Exhibit 99.1, shall not be deemed to be “filed” for the 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. The information in this Item 7.01, including Exhibit 99.1, shall not be deemed incorporated by reference into any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act regardless of any general incorporation language in such filing.

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 Cases and is in a format acceptable to the U.S. Trustee. 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 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.

The Company also cautions that trading in its securities during the pendency of the Chapter 11 Cases is highly speculative and poses substantial risks. ~~The~~With respect to the creditors that have voted on the Joint Plan of Reorganization (the “Plan”) currently proposed by the Company in the Chapter 11 Cases, issuch ~~presently supported by~~ creditors holding ~~92.5~~100% ~~in principal amount and substantially in excess~~ of ~~a majority in number of~~ the Company’s first and second lien secured debt, 87and 96.698% in principal amount and substantially in excess of a majority in number of the ~~second~~Company’s ~~lien~~unsecured ~~secured~~ debt ~~and~~have avoted ~~majority~~ in ~~dollar~~favor ~~amount~~ of the ~~Company’s unsecured debt~~Plan. If the Plan is consummated, the Company’s Class A common stock will be extinguished and the holders of the Class A common stock will not receive any consideration.

Forward-Looking Statements

Information set forth in this Current Report on Form 8-K contains “forward-looking statements” (as defined in Section 21E of the Exchange Act), which reflect the Company’s expectations regarding future events. The forward-looking statements involve a number of risks, uncertainties and other factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in the forward-looking statements. Such forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, the Company’s ability to consummate the Plan. Additional factors that may affect future results are contained in the Company’s filings with the SEC, which are available at the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov. The Company disclaims any obligation to update and revise statements contained in these materials based on new information or otherwise.
