If i understand you well...

If you would like to add holidays for each companies, you don't need cursor. All what you need is to use simple INSERT INTO with SELECT statement.

SQL

INSERT INTO Holidays (CompanyID, SomeField, OtherField, AnotherField, OneMoreField, SomeID1, SomeID2)
SELECT CompanyID, 'Day Description' AS SomeField, '' AS OtherField, datename(dw,(Convert(datetime, '01 January 2015', 103))) AS AnotherField,
Year(Convert(datetime, '01 January 2015', 103)) AS OneMoreField, 0 AS SomeID1, 1 AS SomeID2
FROM Companies
