Cannae Holdings Inc. faces shareholder activism from Carronade, which seeks to elect its own board nominees and form a Strategic Review Committee. Cannae's board urges shareholders to support its nominees, citing their leadership experience. The vote outcome will impact the board's composition and strategic direction.

Cannae Holdings Inc. has been the focus of shareholder activism ahead of its annual meeting scheduled for December 12. Investment firm Carronade is seeking to elect its own slate of director nominees to the company’s board, aiming for significant influence including the formation of a new Strategic Review Committee with a majority of Carronade’s nominees. Cannae’s board has responded by urging shareholders to vote for its own four director nominees-Erika Meinhardt, Barry B. Moullet, James B. Stallings, Jr., and Frank P. Willey-citing their public company leadership and governance experience. The company has expressed concerns that Carronade’s nominees, including Chérie Schaible and Dennis Prieto, lack relevant experience in public company leadership and investment oversight, emphasizing that their backgrounds in distressed debt and restructuring do not align with Cannae’s long-term growth strategy. The outcome of the vote will determine the composition of Cannae’s board and potentially its strategic direction.
