Cannae Holdings To Allocate $460M From Dun & Bradstreet Sale For Stock Buybacks, Dividends And Debt Reduction​

Author: Benzinga Newsdesk | March 31, 2025 05:28am

Cannae Holdings, Inc. (NYSE: CNNE) ("Cannae" or the "Company") today announced that it plans to use at least $460 million, from the proceeds of the recently announced sale of Dun & Bradstreet ("DNB"), to repurchase shares of its common stock, pay future quarterly dividends, and retire existing debt. As a result, Cannae would utilize at least 72% of its expected DNB sale proceeds as a capital return to shareholders and as debt repayment.

The Company expects to repurchase at least $300 million of its common stock, including through a tender offer, which would commence shortly following the anticipated closing of the DNB transaction.

In addition, the Company expects to retain an additional $60 million of the DNB proceeds to cover future quarterly dividends to shareholders, while also repaying all $101 million outstanding under its existing margin loan that is collateralized by DNB shares.

Dun & Bradstreet is Cannae's largest investment as Cannae holds 69.1 million shares, representing $632 million in expected cash proceeds at the announced transaction value. The DNB sale is expected to close in the third quarter of 2025, subject to customary closing conditions.
