May 10, 2023

Trending News 🌧️
Cannae Holdings ($NYSE:CNNE), a publicly traded holding company with a diverse portfolio of investments, has reported results for its second quarter that have failed to meet analyst expectations. The disappointing earnings come at an inconvenient time for Cannae Holdings, as the company had just recently been upgraded to ‘buy’ by analysts at Needham & Co. The stock had been on the rise since that upgrade, and the latest earnings report could jeopardize the company’s progress in the eyes of investors. In light of the earnings miss, Cannae Holdings will need to move quickly to gain back investor confidence and demonstrate its commitment to delivering results that meet or exceed analysts’ expectations. The company will also need to work to stabilize its core operations in order to halt any further losses in future quarters.
Earnings
The company reported total revenue of 155.7M USD, a 14.4% drop from the previous year, and net income of 27.5M USD, a 125.2% decrease from the previous year. This fell short of market expectations by $0.08 and $7.03M respectively. This is cause for concern as the company struggles to remain competitive in a rapidly changing market. Investors have been disappointed by the recent earnings report and it remains to be seen if CANNAE HOLDINGS can turn their fortunes around in the coming quarters.

Analysis
GoodWhale has conducted an analysis of CANNAE HOLDINGS‘s wellbeing and based on our Star Chart we’ve given it an intermediate health score of 4/10. We found that CANNAE HOLDINGS is strong in terms of cashflows and debt, meaning it is likely to pay off debt and fund future operations. But we also looked at revenue growth, profitability, and dividend payments; here the company scored medium in assets and weak in dividend, growth, and profitability. We classify CANNAE HOLDINGS as an ‘elephant’ – a type of company that is rich in assets after deducting off liabilities. This type of company may be attractive to investors looking for a safe bet that could yield a steady return. Investors who are more interested in potential growth may be less interested, given CANNAE HOLDINGS’s weak performance in these areas. More…
