Robbins LLP is Investigating Allegations that Dun & Bradstreet Holdings, Inc. (DNB) Misled Investors in Connection with the Company's Acquisition by Clearlake Capital Group, L.P.

Robbins LLP informs investors that a class action was filed on behalf of sellers of Dun & Bradstreet Holdings, Inc. (NYSE: DNB) common stock between May 13, 2025 and August 26, 2025, inclusive (the “Class Period”), including holders who exchanged shares of Dun & Bradstreet common stock in the Merger with Clearlake Capital Group, L.P., and holders of Dum & Bradstreet common stock as of the May 9, 2025 record date for the special meeting of stockholders and whose shares were voted on, or entitled to vote on, the merger with Clearlake. Dun & Bradstreet is a global provider of business decision data and analytics.

Why Was Dun & Bradstreet Sued?

According to the complaint, on or about March 23, 2025, Dun & Bradstreet agreed to be acquired by affiliates of Clearlake for $9.15 per share in cash.  According to the complaint, to obtain the stockholder approval required to consummate the merger, Dun & Bradstreet issued a definitive proxy statement on Schedule 14A on May 13, 2025 (the “Proxy”).  Dun & Bradstreet stockholders allegedly voted to approve the merger on June 12, 2025, and the merger closed on August 26, 2025.

Plaintiff alleges that defendants made false and/or misleading statements and/or failed to disclose material facts in Dun & Bradstreet's March 23, 2025, merger announcement and in the Proxy.

Specifically, defendants failed to disclose: (i) the actual impetus for the sale: the liquidity crisis and activist threat confronting Cannae, and Foley's determination to convert Dun & Bradstreet, Cannae's largest holding, into cash quickly to address these issues; (ii) that several alternatives to a whole-company sale were worth materially more than $9.15 per share; (iii) the false board approval of the March Projections; and (iv) the advisor conflicts in the sales process.
