Cannae Holdings, Inc. Announces Three Year, 10 Million Share Repurchase Program

Cannae Holdings, Inc. (NYSE: CNNE) (“Cannae” or the “Company”) today announced that its Board of Directors has authorized a three-year stock repurchase program, effective August 3, 2022, under which the Company may repurchase up to 10 million shares of its common stock. Purchases may be made from time to time in the open market at prevailing prices or in privately negotiated transactions through August 3, 2025. The repurchase program does not obligate the Company to acquire any specific number of shares and may be suspended or terminated at any time. In combination with the remaining authorization under the Company’s previous repurchase program, Cannae now has authority to repurchase 12.7 million shares of its common stock.

William P. Foley, II, Chairman of Cannae, commented, "The market continues to significantly undervalue Cannae's stock relative to the sum of the parts value of the Company. While the market discount to the intrinsic value of Cannae has been frustrating for management and shareholders, we continue to believe it presents a significant opportunity for us to invest in ourselves and return significant value to our shareholders."
