Black Knight Football
(Private)

Black Knight Football Club, LP ("Black Knight Football" or "BKFC"), a partnership led by our Chairman William P. Foley, II, is focused on building a global network of world-class football clubs, players, and real estate assets that will produce operational synergies, accelerate player development, and enable efficient player migration across Black Knight Football’s network of owned and operated clubs, while driving both strong on-field performance and financial results. BKFC owns 100% of AFC Bournemouth ("AFCB" or the "Cherries"), a football club competing in the highest level of the men's English football league system, the Premier League, and minority interests in FC Lorient (French Ligue 2) and Hibernian FC (Scottish Premiership).

AFC Bournemouth

The club finalized the sale of Dominic Solanke for a club record £65 Million transfer fee in August 2024, a testament to his significant growth as a player while on the Cherries' squad and the significant achievements of the club in the 2023/2024 season. The transfer fee received for Solanke was the largest in the Cherries' history and the second highest transfer fee for a Premier League player in the 2024 summer transfer window. The club also loaned several players out to other clubs, ensuring playing time for fringe roster players and generating significant player cost savings.

The Cherries also spent the summer transfer window adding to its already well-established roster, acquiring striker Evanilson from Porto, goalkeeper Kepa Arrizabalaga on loan from Chelsea, Dean Huijsen from Juventus and Julian Araujo from Barcelona.

Following the significant changes in the squad, the Cherries have had a strong start to the 2024/2025 season, including a recent win over Manchester City for the first time in the club's history and the first loss suffered by the previous Premier League champion in 32 Premier League matches. The Cherries are currently in 12th place in the Premier League.

The Cherries success in the 2023/2204 season has also resulted in continued commercial growth. Sponsorship and advertising revenues have continued their double-digit growth driven by several renewed agreements at higher rates or extended activation and engagement, as well as new agreements such as bj88 as the club's front-of-shirt partners, LEOS International as sleeve sponsor, Utilita, as its Energy and Sustainability Partner, and an innovative partnership with WWE 2K.

On the ticketing side of the business, each of the Cherries' first four home Premier League Matches set club revenue records, each approximately 10% higher than last season's record high.

Other Group Updates

FC Lorient spent the off season prudently rebalancing its playing squad in advance of the Ligue 2 season. They started the 2024/2025 season strong and are currently in 2nd place in Ligue 2.

BKFC are optimistic to strengthen our ties with Hibernian FC in the coming months and help them move up in the standings.

As of November 11, 2024, Cannae has invested $204 Million, representing an approximate 48% ownership interest in Black Knight Football.

Our Restaurant Group consists of the Ninety Nine Restaurant & Pub and O'Charley's Restaurant + Bar restaurant concepts, in which Cannae has 88.5% and 65.4% equity ownership interests, respectively. The Ninety Nine brand was founded in 1952 and consists of 93 company-owned locations across seven northeastern states. The O'Charley's brand, founded in 1971, comprises 58 company-owned and four franchise locations in thirteen Southern and Midwestern states. Both brands are focused in the casual dining segment of the restaurant industry. For more information, please visit www.99restaurants.com and www.ocharleys.com.
Our Restaurant Group continues to focus on increasing guest counts and on continued rationalizing of support costs.

Sames store sales and guest counts are industry metrics used to evaluate the current and long-term health of restaurants. Addressing the decline in guest counts became a key focus when same store guest counts in the third quarter of 2024 were 11% lower than the prior year quarter, and 2% lower compared to the immediately preceding quarter.

The Restaurant Group began executing a value-driven strategy to reverse the downward trend in guest counts through menu optimizations and targeted marketing campaigns late in the third quarter of 2024. While the primary focus is on value, the Restaurant Group ensured higher priced options were being strategically marketed to maintain overall guest check averages. Initial results indicate favorable guest count trends as a result of this strategy with August, September year-over-year guest counts down favorable compared to the first two quarters of the year.

Leveraging a stronger guest count base, the brands are driving additional sales through a combination of continued menu optimizations, marketing campaigns and strategic pricing actions to run through the fourth quarter of 2024 and the first quarter of 2025.

Management continues to reduce the support center and shared brand costs and have identified further third-party savings during the quarter. Certain of the underlying agreements related to these savings are long term in nature, and accordingly will be reflected in earnings and cash flows in the first quarter of 2025.

As of November 11, 2024, Cannae has invested $141 Million in the Restaurant Group.

The Watkins Company
(Private)

From the bluffs high above the Mississippi River in Winona, Minnesota, comes the purity of The Watkins Company. For over 150 years, Watkins has been heralded as purveyors of flavor, with an unwavering commitment to crafting award-winning gourmet flavoring products from high-quality, natural ingredients, without the use of artificial flavors and colors, GMOs, corn syrup or gluten. For more information on The Watkins Company, please visit www.watkins1868.com.

In October, Cannae Holdings and KDSA Investment Partners acquired a majority interest the Watkins Company (“Watkins”). This transaction is only the second time in the company’s 156-year history that majority ownership has changed. The prior majority owner, which has owned Watkins for the past 46 years, has rolled a significant equity stake into the transaction, and will partner with Cannae and KDSA.

Watkins is well positioned as a premium brand with a full line of natural and organic flavoring products that addresses a diverse set of occasions across spices, seasonings, extracts, decorating, and dry seasoning mixes. The total Spices, Seasonings and Extracts category in the United States is approximately $6 Billion, and Watkins is the second largest extracts brand and one of the fastest-growing organic spice brands.

The spices, seasonings and extracts category is one of the fastest growing segments in the US food industry, with robust secular tailwinds as consumers look for healthy options to add more flavor to their meals. Within this attractive segment of the food industry, Watkins is one of the fastest growing brands, having consistently increased market share over the last few years. The brand’s growth is driven by its strong positioning as a premium but affordable natural and organic option for consumers, offering high-quality products with 150+ years of craftsmanship and expertise.

While the company has grown meaningfully over the last decade, Watkins still has significant runway both within retail, including new and existing customers, and other new channels and geographies. The primary driver of this growth will be continued distribution gains for its core products within the grocery channel, where the company still has substantial whitespace.

In addition to a strong track record and runway for continued organic growth, there is also significant opportunity for additional acquisitions to drive inorganic growth. The spices, seasonings and extracts category is quite fragmented outside of the two largest players, with dozens of other brands. Additional acquisitions could help bolster the company’s positioning within the category and drive additional value creation going forward.

Watkins has an attractive financial profile, growing revenue in the mid-single-digits over the past five years with strong free cash flow conversion and return on invested capital. The company owns its manufacturing facility and proudly produces nearly all of its products across multiple categories, with significant capacity to grow.

As of November 11, 2024, Cannae has invested $80 Million in Watkins, including $20 Million structured as a convertible preferred investment with an 8% annual dividend, to acquire a 53% (fully diluted) interest.

CANNAE HOLDINGS, INC. / THIRD QUARTER 2024 UPDATE
Use of Non-GAAP Financial Information

Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) is the term used to refer to the standard framework of guidelines for financial accounting. GAAP includes the standards, conventions, and rules accountants follow in recording and summarizing transactions and in the preparation of financial statements. In addition to reporting financial results in accordance with GAAP, the Company has provided non-GAAP financial measures for certain investments which we believe provides useful information to investors and ratings agencies regarding our affiliates’ results, operating trends and performance between periods.

Dun & Bradstreet

D&B’s non-GAAP measures include adjusted earnings before interest, taxes and depreciation and amortization (adjusted EBITDA). Adjusted results are non-GAAP measures that adjust for the impact due to certain acquisition and divestiture related revenue and expenses, such as costs for banker fees, legal fees, due diligence, retention payments and contingent consideration adjustments, restructuring charges, transition costs, equity-based compensation, and other non-core gains and charges that are not in the normal course of our business, such as costs associated with early debt redemptions, gains and losses on sales of businesses, impairment charges, the effect of significant changes in tax laws and material tax and legal settlements.

We present D&B’s adjusted EBITDA because D&B believes that this supplemental non-GAAP financial measure provides management and other users with additional meaningful financial information that should be considered when assessing D&B's ongoing performance and comparability of its operating results from period to period. D&B's management regularly uses its supplemental non-GAAP financial measures internally to understand, manage and evaluate its business and make operating decisions. These non-GAAP measures are among the factors management uses in planning for and forecasting future periods. Non-GAAP financial measures should be viewed in addition to, and not as an alternative to our reported results prepared in accordance with GAAP.

D&B's adjusted EBITDA is defined as net income or loss excluding the following items: depreciation and amortization; interest expense and income; income tax benefit or provision; other non-operating expenses or income; equity in net income of affiliates; net income attributable to noncontrolling interests; equity-based compensation; restructuring charges; merger, acquisition and divestiture-related operating costs; transition costs primarily consisting of non-recurring expenses associated with transformational and integration activities, as well as incentive expenses associated with D&B's synergy program; and other adjustments primarily related to non-cash charges and gains. D&B excludes amortization of recognized intangible assets resulting from the application of purchase accounting because it is non-cash and not indicative of its ongoing and underlying operating performance. Recognized intangible assets arise from acquisitions, or primarily D&B's accounting for its privatization in 2019. D&B believes that recognized intangible assets by their nature are fundamentally different from other depreciating assets that are replaced on a predictable operating cycle. Unlike other depreciating assets, such as developed and purchased software licenses or property and equipment, there is no replacement cost once these recognized intangible assets expire and the assets are not replaced. Additionally, D&B's costs to operate, maintain and extend the life of acquired intangible assets and purchased intellectual property are reflected in its operating costs as personnel, data fee, facilities, overhead and similar items. Management believes it is important for investors to understand that such intangible assets were recorded as part of purchase accounting and contribute to revenue generation. Amortization of recognized intangible assets will recur in future periods until such assets have been fully amortized.

Alight

Alight’s Adjusted EBITDA is defined as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and intangible amortization adjusted for the impact of certain non-cash and other items that Alight does not consider in the evaluation of ongoing operational performance. Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure used by management and Alight’s stakeholders to provide useful supplemental information that enables a better comparison of Alight’s performance across periods as well as to evaluate Alight’s core operating performance.

Revenue Under Contract is an operational metric that represents management’s estimate of anticipated revenue expected to be recognized in the period referenced based on available information that includes historical client contracting practices. The metric does not reflect potential future events such as unexpected client volume fluctuations, early contract terminations or early contract renewals. Alight’s metric may differ from similar terms used by other companies and therefore comparability may be limited.


17
CANNAE HOLDINGS, INC. / THIRD QUARTER 2024 UPDATE
Paysafe

Paysafe's Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net income (loss) before the impact of income tax (benefit) expense, interest expense, net, depreciation and amortization, share-based compensation, impairment expense on goodwill and intangible assets, restructuring and other costs, loss (gain) on disposal of subsidiaries and other assets, net, and other income (expense), net. These adjustments also include certain costs and transaction items that are not reflective of the underlying operating performance of Paysafe. Management believes Adjusted EBITDA to be a useful profitability measure to assess the performance of Paysafe's businesses and improves the comparability of operating results across reporting periods.

Paysafe management believes the presentation of Paysafe's non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA, when considered together with Paysafe's results presented in accordance with GAAP, provides users with useful supplemental information in comparing the operating results across reporting periods by excluding items that are not considered indicative of Paysafe’s core operating performance. In addition, management believes the presentation of Paysafe's non-GAAP financial measures provides useful supplemental information in assessing its results on a basis that fosters comparability across periods by excluding the impact on Paysafe’s reported GAAP results of acquisitions and dispositions that have occurred in such periods. However, these non-GAAP measures exclude items that are significant in understanding and assessing Paysafe’s financial results or position. Therefore, these measures should not be considered in isolation or as alternatives to revenue, net income, cash flows from operations or other measures of profitability, liquidity or performance under GAAP.

System1

We include System1's Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP financial measure, in this release as it represents a key metric used by System1’s management and board of directors to measure the operational strength and performance of its business, to establish budgets, and to develop operational goals for managing its business. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net income (loss) before interest expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization expense, stock-based compensation expenses, deferred compensation, management fees, minority interest expense, restructuring charges, impairment and certain discrete items impacting a particular segment’s results in a particular period.

System1 management believes Adjusted EBITDA is a relevant and useful metric for investors because it allows investors to view performance in a manner similar to the method used by management. There are limitations on the use of Adjusted EBITDA, and it may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies. Other companies, including companies in System1’s industry, may calculate non-GAAP financial measures differently than System1 does, limiting the usefulness of those measures for comparative purposes.

Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered a substitute for income (loss) from operations, net income (loss), or net income (loss) attributable to System1 on a consolidated basis that System1 reports in accordance with GAAP. Although System1 uses Adjusted EBITDA as a financial measure to assess the performance of its business, such use is limited because it does not include certain costs necessary to operate System1’s business. System1’s presentation of Adjusted EBITDA should not be construed as indications that its future results will be unaffected by unusual or nonrecurring items.

Restaurant Group

Restaurant Group's Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net income (loss) before the impact of income tax (benefit) expense, interest expense, net, depreciation and amortization, net income (loss) attributable to noncontrolling interests, non-cash impairment expense on property and equipment and lease assets, non-recurring disposal costs including lease termination expense and severance, recognized gains and losses on sales of fixed assets and other non-recurring income (expense). Management believes Adjusted EBITDA to be a useful profitability measure to assess the performance of Restaurant Group's businesses and improves the comparability of operating results across reporting periods.

Management believes the presentation of Restaurant Group's non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA provides users with useful supplemental information in comparing the operating results across reporting periods by excluding items that are not considered indicative of Restaurant Group’s core operating performance. However, these non-GAAP measures exclude items that are significant in understanding and assessing Restaurant Group’s financial results or position. Therefore, these measures should not be considered in isolation or as alternatives to revenue, net income, cash flows from operations or other measures of profitability, liquidity or performance under GAAP.
