LAS VEGAS--()--Cannae Holdings, Inc. (NYSE:CNNE) (“Cannae” or the “Company”) today announced that the Company is actively repurchasing common stock in accordance with its previously authorized stock repurchase programs.

William P. Foley, II, Chairman of Cannae, commented, “We have remaining authority to acquire approximately 11.6 million shares pursuant to our previously authorized programs granted by our Board of Directors. In addition, while we intend to continue to allocate capital to opportunistic investments, we also intend to engage in significant buyback activity for the foreseeable future. We have confidence in the fundamental value of the company and our portfolio holdings and believe reinvesting in our own shares is an optimal use of our capital.
