Investors File Securities Class Action Against Dun & Bradstreet
A class action lawsuit has been filed against Dun & Bradstreet Holdings, Inc., alleging the company misled shareholders regarding its 2025 merger.
The Rosen Law Firm has initiated a class action lawsuit against Dun & Bradstreet Holdings, Inc. (D&B), targeting alleged securities fraud related to the company’s 2025 acquisition by affiliates of Clearlake Capital Group. The action seeks to represent investors who held or traded D&B stock between May and August 2025.
The complaint alleges that D&B provided false and misleading information in its proxy statements, specifically regarding the company's valuation and the motivations behind the merger. Plaintiffs argue that the company characterized the deal as an arm's-length transaction while omitting details concerning Executive Chairman Foley’s personal interest in an expedited sale and failing to disclose potential superior alternatives identified by advisors.
Additionally, the suit claims the board failed to accurately report the context behind revised financial projections and neglected to disclose long-standing ties between management and the firms advising the transaction. Interested parties must apply to serve as lead plaintiff by November 10, 2026.
