LAS VEGAS -- 

Cannae Holdings, Inc. (NYSE:CNNE) (“Cannae”) today announced that Dun & Bradstreet Holdings, Inc. (“Dun & Bradstreet”), a Cannae portfolio company, priced its initial public offering of 78,302,272 shares of its common stock at an initial public offering price of $22.00 per share. The shares are expected to begin trading on the New York Stock Exchange on July 1, 2020 under the symbol “DNB.” The initial public offering is expected to close on July 6, 2020, subject to the satisfaction of customary closing conditions.

Dun & Bradstreet has granted the underwriters a 30-day option to purchase up to an additional 11,745,340 shares at the initial public offering price, less underwriting discounts and commissions.

A subsidiary of Cannae, a subsidiary of Black Knight, Inc. and a subsidiary of CC Capital Partners, LLC plan to invest $200.0 million, $100.0 million, and $100.0 million, respectively, in a concurrent private placement of Dun & Bradstreet’s common stock at a price per share equal to $21.67. Such concurrent private placement is contingent upon the consummation of the offering. Dun & Bradstreet intends to use the proceeds that it receives from the offering and the concurrent private placement to redeem all of its outstanding Series A Preferred Stock, repay a portion of its 10.250% Senior Unsecured Notes outstanding due 2027 and for working capital and other general corporate purposes, which may include the repayment of additional indebtedness.
