This free writing prospectus relates to, and should be read together with, the preliminary prospectus supplement issued by SS&C Technologies Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”) and dated June 17, 2015 (together with the prospectus dated June 17, 2015 included in the Company’s Registration Statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-205026), the “Preliminary Prospectus”). Terms used but not otherwise defined herein have the meanings assigned to them in the Preliminary Prospectus.

The following information supplements and updates the information contained in the Preliminary Prospectus.

Increase in offering size: The size of the offering has been increased to 10,500,000 shares of our common stock, for an aggregate price to public of $645,750,000, assuming no exercise of the underwriters’ option to purchase additional shares.

Public offering price: $61.50 per share.

Underwriters’ option to purchase additional shares: 1,575,000 shares.

Common stock to be issued and outstanding after this offering: 92,352,000 shares, assuming no exercise of the underwriters’ option to purchase additional shares; 93,927,000 shares, if the underwriters’ option to purchase additional shares is exercised in full.

Use of proceeds: We estimate that the net proceeds from this offering, after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and before estimated offering expenses, will be approximately $625 million. We expect to use approximately $400 million of the net proceeds from this offering, together with the proceeds from the Senior Secured Credit Facilities and the Notes, to finance our pending acquisition of Advent, to refinance the loans outstanding under our existing credit agreement, to repay Advent’s existing indebtedness and to pay related fees and expenses. We expect to use the remaining net proceeds from this offering, including any proceeds from the underwriters’ exercise of their option to purchase additional shares, for general corporate purposes.

Completion of this offering is not contingent upon consummation of the Advent acquisition or the terms of the Advent acquisition. If the Advent acquisition is not consummated for any reason, we will use the entire net proceeds from this offering for general corporate purposes.


Other changes: The following table sets forth the estimated sources and uses of funds in connection with the Advent acquisition. The actual sources and uses of funds may vary from the estimated sources and uses of funds in the table and accompanying footnotes set forth below.
