Strategic Portfolio Rebalancing and Capital Return Plan
Cannae has sold approximately $1.1 billion of public company stakes since February 2024, significantly reducing its public holdings from 63% to 22% of assets.
The company expects to receive around $630 million from the sale of Dun & Bradstreet, which will be used for share repurchases, debt repayment, and dividends.
Cannae has repurchased 7.6 million shares, or about 12% of outstanding shares, at an average price of $19.71, aiming to close the NAV discount.
The company increased its quarterly dividend by 25% to $0.15 per share, reflecting a commitment to returning capital to shareholders.
Since February 2024, Cannae has returned approximately $414 million through buybacks and dividends, demonstrating a strategic focus on capital deployment.
