Dun & Bradstreet Holdings Inc. Slips to 264th in Trading Volume Ranking Amid Acquisition Scrutiny

On March 25, 2025, Dun & Bradstreet Holdings Inc. (DNB) experienced a significant decline in trading volume, with a total turnover of $338 million, marking a 41.03% decrease from the previous day. This placed DNB at the 264th position in terms of trading volume for the day. The stock price of DNB also decreased by 0.44%.

Dun & Bradstreet Holdings Inc. (DNB) has agreed to be acquired by Clearlake Capital for $7.7 billion. This acquisition, which is valued at an enterprise value of $7.7 billion, translates to a purchase price of $9.15 per share. The deal has been met with scrutiny, as the sale price is below the price targets set by several analysts and well below DNB's 52-week high of $12.95 per share.

Moody's has placed the ratings of DNB and its subsidiary under review. The outlooks for both entities were previously stable but are now being reassessed. However, the company's speculative grade liquidity rating remains unchanged.

Wohl & Fruchter LLP is investigating the fairness of the proposed sale of DNB to Clearlake Capital. The law firm is examining whether the DNB Board of Directors acted in the best interests of shareholders and whether all material information regarding the transaction has been fully disclosed. The investigation comes as the sale price of $9.15 per share is below the price targets set by several analysts and well below DNB's 52-week high.
