Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]
Basis of Presentation	Basis of Presentation The accompanying interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of Dun & Bradstreet Holdings, Inc. (formerly Star Intermediate I, Inc.) and its subsidiaries (‘‘we’’ ‘‘us’’ ‘‘our’’ or the ‘‘Company’’) were prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (‘‘GAAP’’). They should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes, which appear in the consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2019, included in our final prospectus dated June 30, 2020 and filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on July 2, 2020. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for interim periods do not include all disclosures required by GAAP for annual financial statements and are not necessarily indicative of results for the full year or any subsequent period. In the opinion of our management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair statement of the unaudited consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flows at the dates and for the periods presented have been included. The Take-Private Transaction On August 8, 2018, a consortium of investors formed a Delaware limited partnership, Star Parent, L.P. (‘‘Parent’’) and Star Merger Sub, Inc. (‘‘Merger Sub’’), and subsequently formed subsidiaries including Dun & Bradstreet Holdings, Inc., Star Intermediate II, LLC and Star Intermediate III, LLC. Also on August 8, 2018, The Dun & Bradstreet Corporation ("Dun & Bradstreet") entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the ‘‘Merger Agreement’’) with Parent and Merger Sub. On February 8, 2019, pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, Merger Sub merged with and into Dun & Bradstreet with Dun & Bradstreet continuing as the surviving corporation. The transaction is referred to as the ‘‘Take-Private Transaction.’’ At the time of the Take-Private Transaction, Parent and its subsidiaries, including Dun & Bradstreet Holdings, Inc. were collectively controlled by Bilcar, LLC (‘‘Bilcar’’), Thomas H. Lee Partners, L.P. (‘‘THL’’), Cannae Holdings, Inc. (‘‘Cannae Holdings’’), Black Knight, Inc. (‘‘Black Knight’’) and CC Capital Partners LLC (‘‘CC Capital’’), collectively the ‘‘Investor Consortium.’’ The diagram below depicts the legal entity structure after the consummation of the Take-Private Transaction: The completion of the Take-Private Transaction resulted in the following: •Parent issued 206,787.3617 Class A units for $2,048.4 million, net of equity syndication fee of $19.5 million, which was contributed to Dun & Bradstreet Holdings, Inc. In addition, Parent issued 6,817.7428 units of Class B and 32,987.0078 units of Class C profits interest. •Dun & Bradstreet Holdings, Inc. issued 314,494,968 shares of common stock to Parent and 1,050,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock for $1,028.4 million, net of issuance discount of $21.6 million. •Merger Sub entered into a credit agreement for new senior secured credit facilities (the ‘‘New Senior Secured Credit Facilities’’). The New Senior Secured Credit Facilities provide for (i) a seven year senior secured term loan facility in an aggregate principal amount of $2,530.0 million (the ‘‘New Term Loan Facility’’), (ii) a five year senior secured revolving credit facility in an aggregate principal amount of $400 million (the ‘‘New Revolving Facility’’) and (iii) a 364-day repatriation bridge facility in an aggregate amount of $63.0 million. Also on February 8, 2019, Merger Sub issued $700.0 million in aggregate principal amount of 6.875% senior secured notes (the ‘‘New Senior Secured Notes’’) and $750.0 million in aggregate principal amount of Senior Unsecured Notes due 2027 (the ‘‘New Senior Unsecured Notes’’). See Note 5 for further discussion. •The Company used the proceeds from the issuances of common and preferred shares and the debt financing to (i) finance and consummate the Take-Private Transaction and other transactions, including to fund nonqualified pension and deferred compensation plan obligations (ii) repay in full all outstanding indebtedness under Dun & Bradstreet’s then-existing senior secured credit facilities, (iii) fund the redemption and discharge of all of Dun & Bradstreet’s then-existing senior notes and (iv) pay related fees, costs, premiums and expenses in connection with these transactions. •Merger Sub merged with and into D&B with D&B continuing as the surviving corporation. As a result of the Take-Private Transaction on February 8, 2019, the merger was accounted for in accordance with ASC 805, ‘‘Business Combinations’’ (‘‘ASC 805’’), and Dun & Bradstreet Holdings, Inc. was determined to be the accounting acquirer. The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements and information are presented on a Successor and Predecessor basis. References to Predecessor refer to the results of operations, cash flows and financial position of The Dun & Bradstreet Corporation and its subsidiaries prior to the closing of the Take-Private Transaction. References to Successor refer to the consolidated financial position of Dun & Bradstreet Holdings, Inc. and its subsidiaries as of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, and the results of operations and cash flows of Dun & Bradstreet Holdings, Inc. and its subsidiaries for the three- month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2020, the three months ended June 30, 2019 and the period from January 1, 2019 to June 30, 2019. During the period from January 1, 2019 to February 7, 2019, Dun & Bradstreet Holdings, Inc. had no significant operations and limited assets and had only incurred transaction related expenses prior to the Take-Private Transaction. The Successor period includes the consolidated results of operations, cash flows and financial position of Dun & Bradstreet and its subsidiaries on and after February 8, 2019. The Predecessor and Successor consolidated financial information presented herein is not comparable primarily due to the impacts of the Take-Private Transaction including the application of acquisition accounting in the Successor financial statements as of February 8, 2019, as further described in Note 12, of which the most significant impacts are (i) the increased amortization expense for intangible assets, (ii) additional interest expense associated with debt financing arrangements entered into in connection with the Take-Private Transaction, (iii) higher non-recurring transaction costs and the pension settlement charge attributable to the Take-Private Transaction and (iv) a shorter Successor period for our International operations. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation. Since the Take-Private Transaction, management has made changes to transform our business. As a result, during the fourth quarter of 2019, we changed the composition of our reportable segments, the classification of revenue by solution set and our measure of segment profit (from operating income to adjusted EBITDA (see Note 15 for further discussion of adjusted EBITDA) in the information that we provide to our chief operating decision makers (CODMs) to better align with how they assess performance and allocate resources. Latin America Worldwide Network, which was previously included in the Americas reportable segment, is currently included in the International segment. Accordingly, prior period results have been recast to conform to the current presentation of segments, revenue by solution, and the measure of segment profit. These changes do not impact our consolidated results. We manage our business and report our financial results through the following two segments: •North America offers Finance & Risk and Sales & Marketing data, analytics and business insights in the United States and Canada; and •International offers Finance & Risk and Sales & Marketing data, analytics and business insights directly in the United Kingdom/Ireland ("U.K."), Greater China, India and indirectly through our Worldwide Network Alliances. Except as described below, the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect results of the subsidiaries outside of North America for the three-month and six-month periods ended May 31 in order to facilitate the timely reporting of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial results and unaudited condensed consolidated financial position. For the period from January 1, 2019 to June 30, 2019 (Successor), the results of subsidiaries outside of North America are reflected for the period from February 8, 2019 through May 31, 2019. For the period from January 1 to February 7, 2019 (Predecessor), the results of subsidiaries outside of North America are reflected for the period from December 1, 2018 to January 7, 2019. As a result of the lag reporting in the International segment, we excluded the revenue and expenses for the period of January 8, 2019 to February 7, 2019, (the "International lag adjustment"), in connection with the Take-Private Transaction on February 8, 2019. Our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements presented herein reflect the latest estimates and assumptions made by management that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and related disclosures as of the date of the unaudited consolidated financial statements and reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods presented. Since early 2020, the novel coronavirus ("COVID-19") global pandemic has caused disruptions in the economy and volatility in the global financial markets. There is considerable uncertainty regarding its duration and the speed of recovery. The extent of the impact of the COVID-19 global pandemic on our operations and financial performance will depend on the effects on our clients and vendors, which are uncertain at this time and cannot be predicted. In addition, the pandemic may affect management's estimates and assumptions of variable consideration in contracts with clients as well as other estimates and assumptions, in particular those that require a projection of our financial results, our cash flows or broader economic conditions.

Accounting Changes and Error Corrections [Abstract]
Recent Accounting Pronouncements	Recent Accounting Pronouncements We consider the applicability and impact of all Accounting Standards Updates (“ASUs”) and applicable authoritative guidance. The ASUs not listed below were assessed and determined to be either not applicable or are expected to have an immaterial impact on our consolidated financial position, results of operations and/or cash flows. Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-15, “Customer’s Accounting for Implementation Costs Incurred in a Cloud Computing Arrangement that is a Service Contract: Disclosures for Implementation Costs Incurred for Internal-Use Software and Cloud Computing Arrangements - a consensus of the EITF.” The standard aligns the accounting for costs incurred to implement a cloud computing arrangement that is a service arrangement with the guidance on capitalizing costs associated with developing or obtaining internal-use software. Costs incurred during the planning and post implementation stages are typically expensed, while costs incurred during the development stage are typically capitalized. The capitalized implementation costs are to be expensed over the term of the hosting arrangement including renewal options to the extent those options are expected to be utilized. This update also requires the capitalized implementation costs to be presented in the consolidated financial statements consistent with the presentation of the ongoing fees and payments associated with the cloud arrangement. We adopted this update as of January 1, 2020 and applied its amendments prospectively to implementation costs incurred after the date of adoption. This update did not have a material effect on our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, “Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments.” The standard changes the impairment model for most financial assets and certain other instruments. For trade and other receivables, held-to-maturity debt securities, loans and other instruments, entities are required to use a new forward-looking “expected loss” model that generally will result in the earlier recognition of allowances for losses. For available-for-sale debt securities with unrealized losses, entities measure credit losses in a manner similar to what is required under the existing guidance, except that the losses will be recognized as allowances rather than reductions in the amortized cost of the securities. We adopted this update as of January 1, 2020. This update did not have a material effect on our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-12, "Income Taxes (Topic 740)." The amendments in this Update simplify the accounting for income taxes by removing certain exceptions to the general principles in Topic 740. The amendments also improve consistent application of and simplify GAAP for other areas of Topic 740 by clarifying and amending existing guidance. For public business entities, the amendments in this Update are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2020. For all other entities, the amendments in this Update are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021 and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022. We do not expect the adoption of this authoritative guidance to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements. In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-14, “Compensation-Retirement Benefits-Defined Benefit Plans- General (Topic 715-20): Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Defined Benefit Plans.” The standard amends ASC 715, “Compensation - Retirement Benefits,” to add, remove, and clarify disclosure requirements related to defined benefit pension and other postretirement plans. The amendments are to be applied retrospectively. The standard is effective for public business entities for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2020, and for all other entities for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2021. Early adoption is permitted. The adoption of this authoritative guidance will not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

The entire disclosure for change in accounting principle. Includes, but is not limited to, nature, reason, and method of adopting amendment to accounting standards or other change in accounting principle.

Revenue from Contract with Customer [Abstract]

Revenue

6 Months Ended

Jun. 30, 2020

The total amount of the transaction price for our revenue contracts allocated to performance obligations that are unsatisfied (or partially unsatisfied) as of June 30, 2020 (Successor) is as follows:


	Rest of 2020		2021		2022		2023		2024		Thereafter		Total
Future revenue	$	648.8	$	650.6	$	317.8	$	142.9	$	66.9	$	249.0	$	2,076.0

The table of future revenue does not include any amount of variable consideration that is a sales or usage-based royalty in exchange for distinct data licenses or that is allocated to a distinct service period within a single performance obligation that is a series of distinct service periods.

Contract Balances


	At June 30, 2020		At December 31, 2019
Accounts receivable, net	$	246.2	$	269.3
Short-term contract assets	$	0.5	$	1.0
Long-term contract assets	$	1.0	$	2.8
Short-term deferred revenue	$	520.8	$	467.5
Long-term deferred revenue	$	11.8	$	7.8

The increase in deferred revenue of $57.3 million from December 31, 2019 to June 30, 2020 was primarily due to cash payments received or due in advance of satisfying our performance obligations, and the decrease of the purchase accounting fair value adjustments from our Take-Private Transaction in February 2019, largely offset by approximately $404.5 million of revenues recognized that were included in the deferred revenue balance at December 31, 2019.

The decrease in contract assets of $2.3 million is primarily due to $3.2 million of contract assets included in the balance at January 1, 2020 that were reclassified to receivables when they became unconditional, largely offset by new contract assets recognized in the period, net of new amounts reclassified to receivables.

Assets Recognized for the Costs to Obtain a Contract

Commission assets, net of accumulated amortization included in deferred costs, were $61.5 million and $47.0 million as of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively.

The amortization of commission assets is as follows:


Period	Amortization
Three months ended June 30, 2020 (Successor)	$	4.0
Six months ended June 30, 2020 (Successor)	$	7.2
Three months ended June 30, 2019 (Successor)	$	0.8
Period from January 1 to June 30, 2019 (Successor)	$	0.9
Period from January 1 to February 7, 2019 (Predecessor)	$	3.2

The entire disclosure of revenue from contract with customer to transfer good or service and to transfer nonfinancial asset. Includes, but is not limited to, disaggregation of revenue, credit loss recognized from contract with customer, judgment and change in judgment related to contract with customer, and asset recognized from cost incurred to obtain or fulfill contract with customer. Excludes insurance and lease contracts.

Restructuring Charge

Restructuring ChargeWe incurred restructuring charges (which generally consist of employee severance and termination costs, and contract terminations). These charges were incurred as a result of eliminating, consolidating, standardizing and/or automating our business functions.

We recorded a restructuring charge of $6.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020 (Successor). This charge consists of:

•Severance costs of $4.2 million under ongoing benefit arrangements. Approximately 60 employees were impacted. Most of the employees impacted exited the Company by the end of the second quarter of 2020. The cash payments for these employees will be substantially completed by the end of the fourth quarter of 2020; and

•Contract termination, write down of right of use assets and other exit costs, including those to consolidate or close facilities of $2.6 million

We recorded a restructuring charge of $17.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019 (Successor). This charge consists of:

•Severance costs of $10.7 million under ongoing benefit arrangements. Approximately 190 employees were impacted and exited the Company by the end of the second quarter of 2019. The cash payments for these employees were substantially completed by the end of the first quarter of 2020; and

•Contract termination, write down of right of use assets and other exit costs, including those to consolidate or close facilities of $6.7 million.

Six Months Ended June 30, 2020 (Successor) vs. Six Months Ended June 30, 2019 (Successor) and Period from January 1, 2019 to February 7, 2019 (Predecessor)

We recorded a restructuring charge of $11.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020 (Successor). This charge consists of:

•Severance costs of $6.2 million under ongoing benefit arrangements. Approximately 100 employees were impacted. Most of the employees impacted exited the Company by the end of the second quarter of 2020. The cash payments for these employees will be substantially completed by the end of the fourth quarter of 2020; and

•Contract termination, write down of right of use assets and other exit costs, including those to consolidate or close facilities of $5.1 million.

Debt Disclosure [Abstract]

Notes Payable and Indebtedness

Successor Debt

In connection with the Take-Private Transaction on February 8, 2019, the Company entered into a credit agreement governing its new senior secured credit facilities (the “New Senior Secured Credit Facilities”). The New Senior Secured Credit Facilities provided for (i) a seven year senior secured term loan facility in an aggregate principal amount of $2,530 million (the “New Term Loan Facility”), (ii) a five year senior secured revolving credit facility in an aggregate principal amount of $400 million (the “New Revolving Facility”) and (iii) a 364-day repatriation bridge facility in an aggregate amount of $63 million (the "New Repatriation Bridge Facility"). The closing of the New Senior Secured Credit facility was conditional on the redemption of the Predecessor debt. Also on February 8, 2019, Merger Sub, which was merged into Dun & Bradstreet upon the closing of the Take-Private Transaction, issued $700 million in aggregate principal amount of 6.875% senior secured notes due 2026 (the "New Senior Secured Notes") and $750 million in aggregate principal amount of 10.250% senior unsecured notes due 2027 (the "New Senior Unsecured Notes"). Together with the equity contributions from the investors, the proceeds from these financing transactions were used to (i) finance and consummate the Take-Private Transaction and other transactions, including to fund nonqualified pension and deferred compensation plan obligations (ii) repay in full all outstanding

indebtedness under the Company's then-existing senior secured credit facilities, (iii) fund the redemption and discharge of all of the Company’s then-existing senior notes and (iv) pay related fees, costs, premiums and expenses in connection with these transactions.

In connection with the initial public offering ("IPO") transaction (see Note 18), as of June 30, 2020 we committed to repay and subsequent thereto repaid $300 million in aggregate principal amount of our 10.250% Senior Unsecured Notes outstanding due 2027. As of June 30, 2020, we classified and reported the repayment portion within “Short-term debt.” As a result, the associated deferred debt issuance costs and discount of $10.5 million were expensed as of June 30, 2020. In addition, we were required to pay a premium of $30.8 million related to the repayment, which was accrued within “Other accrued and current liabilities” as of June 30, 2020. The associated expense was reported within “Non-operating income (expense) – net,” for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020.

Our borrowings are summarized in the following table:

*Represents unamortized portion of debt issuance costs and discounts.

(1) The New Senior Secured Credit Facilities and Successor notes contain certain covenants that limit our ability to incur additional indebtedness and guarantee indebtedness, create liens, engage in mergers or acquisitions, sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of assets, pay dividends and distributions or repurchase capital stock, prepay certain indebtedness and make investments, loans and advances. We were in compliance with these non-financial covenants at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019.

(2) The New Revolving Facility contains a springing financial covenant requiring compliance with a maximum ratio of first lien net indebtedness to consolidated EBITDA of 6.75. The financial covenant applies only if the aggregate principal amount of borrowings under the New Revolving Facility and certain outstanding letters of credit exceed 35% of the total amount of commitments under the New Revolving Facility on the last day of any fiscal quarter. The financial covenant did not apply at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019.

New Senior Secured Credit Facilities

Borrowings under the New Senior Secured Credit Facilities bear interest at a rate per annum equal to an applicable margin over a LIBOR rate for the interest period relevant to such borrowing, subject to interest rate floors, and they are secured by substantially all of the Company’s assets.

Other details of the New Senior Secured Credit Facilities:

•As required by the credit agreement, beginning June 30, 2020, the principal amount of the New Term Loan Facility will begin to be paid down in equal quarterly installments in an aggregate annual amount equal to 1.00% of the original principal amount, with the balance being payable on February 8, 2026. Debt issuance costs of $62.1 million and discount of $50.6 million were recorded as a reduction of the carrying amount of the New Term Loan Facility and are being amortized over the term of the facility. The margin to LIBOR was 500 basis points initially. On February 10, 2020, an amendment was made to the credit agreement, specifically related to the New Term Loan Facility, which reduced the margin to LIBOR to 400 basis points. The maturity date for the New Term Loan Facility remains February 8, 2026 and no changes were made to the financial covenants or scheduled amortization. Subsequent to the IPO transaction, the spread was further reduced by 25 basis points to 375 basis points. The interest rate associated with the outstanding balances of the New Term Loan Facility at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019 were 4.184% and 6.792%, respectively. In connection with the term loan repricing, we incurred $0.8 million of third-party fees and wrote off $6.2 million of deferred debt issuance costs and discount related to changes in syndicated lenders. Both were recorded and reflected within “Other income (expense)-net” for the six months ended June 30, 2020.

•The New Revolving Facility provides for up to $400 million of revolving extensions of credit outstanding at any time until maturity on February 8, 2024. Debt issuance costs of $9.6 million were included in "Other Non-Current Assets" on the consolidated balance sheet and will be amortized over the term of the New Revolving Facility. The margin to LIBOR is 350 basis points. Subsequent to the IPO transaction, the spread was reduced by 25 basis points to 325 basis points. The interest rate associated with the outstanding balance of the New Revolving Facility at June 30, 2020 was 3.604%.

•The New Repatriation Bridge Facility matured on February 7, 2020. Debt issuance costs of $1.5 million were recorded as a reduction of the carrying amount of the New Repatriation Bridge Facility and were amortized over the term of the New Repatriation Bridge Facility. The margin to LIBOR was 350 basis points. The interest rate associated with the Repatriation Bridge Facility at December 31, 2019 was 5.292%. The outstanding balance of the New Repatriation Bridge Facility was fully repaid in February 2020.

New Senior Notes

Debt issuance costs of $17.9 million and $31.6 million related to the 6.875% New Senior Secured Notes and the 10.250% New Senior Unsecured Notes, respectively, were recorded as a reduction of the carrying amount of the notes and will be amortized over the respective contractual term of the notes. The New Senior Secured Notes and the New Senior Unsecured Notes may be redeemed at our option, in whole or in part, following specified events and on specified redemption dates and at the redemption prices specified in the indenture governing the New Senior Secured Notes and the New Senior Unsecured Notes.

The scheduled maturities and interest payments for our total debt outstanding as of June 30, 2020, reflecting the 40% redemption of the 10.250% Senior Unsecured Notes and the interest rate reduction discussed above, are as follows:


	Rest of 2020		2021		2022		2023		2024		Thereafter		Total
Principal	$	312.7	$	25.3	$	25.3	$	25.3	$	112.8	$	3,559.8	$	4,061.2
Interest	110.0		195.0		194.1		193.1		189.5		315.3		1,197.0
Total Debt	$	422.7	$	220.3	$	219.4	$	218.4	$	302.3	$	3,875.1	$	5,258.2

Retired Predecessor Debt

In connection with the Take-Private Transaction, we repaid in full all outstanding indebtedness under the Predecessor Term Loan Facility and Revolving Credit Facility and funded the redemption and discharge of the Predecessor senior notes, inclusive of a make-whole payment of $25.1 million, which was considered in our determination of the acquisition date fair value of the Predecessor senior notes as part of purchase accounting. Total unamortized debt issuance costs and discount of $6.6 million related to the Predecessor Term Loan Facility and Revolving Credit Facility were allocated zero value as part of purchase accounting. The weighted average interest rate associated with the outstanding balances related to the Predecessor

Revolving Credit Facility prior to retirement as of February 7, 2019 was 3.66%. The interest rate associated with the outstanding balances related to the Predecessor Term Loan Facility prior to retirement as of February 7, 2019 was 4.00%.

A short-term obligation that will be refinanced with successive short-term obligations may be classified as non-current as long as the cumulative period covered by the financing agreement is uninterrupted and extends beyond one year. Accordingly, the outstanding balances associated with the revolving credit facility were classified as “Long-Term Debt” as of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019 (Successor), excluding outstanding borrowings that were subsequently repaid utilizing operating funds.

Other

We were contingently liable under open standby letters of credit and bank guarantees issued by our banks in favor of third parties totaling $0.9 million at June 30, 2020 and $1.0 million at December 31, 2019 (Successor).

On April 20, 2018, we entered into three-year interest rate swaps with an aggregate notional amount of $300 million in year 1, $214 million in year 2 and $129 million in year 3. The objective of the swaps is to mitigate the variation of future cash flows from changes in the floating interest rates on our existing debt. See Note 10 to our condensed consolidated financial statements.

Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract]
Contingencies	Contingencies In the ordinary course of business, we are involved in various pending and threatened litigation and regulatory matters related to our operations, such as claims brought by our clients in connection with commercial disputes, defamation claims by subjects of our reporting, and employment claims made by our current or former employees, some of which include claims for punitive or exemplary damages. Our ordinary course litigation may also include class action lawsuits, which make allegations related to various aspects of our business. From time to time, we are also subject to regulatory investigations or other proceedings by state and federal regulatory authorities, some of which take the form of civil investigative demands or subpoenas. Some of these regulatory inquiries may result in the assessment of fines for violations of regulations or settlements with such authorities requiring a variety of remedies. We believe that none of these actions depart from customary litigation or regulatory inquiries incidental to our business. We review lawsuits and other legal and regulatory matters (collectively "legal proceedings") on an ongoing basis when making accrual and disclosure decisions. When assessing reasonably possible and probable outcomes, management bases its decision on its assessment of the ultimate outcome assuming all appeals have been exhausted. For legal proceedings where it has been determined that a loss is both probable and reasonably estimable, a liability based on known facts and which represents our best estimate has been recorded. Actual losses may materially differ from the amounts recorded and the ultimate outcome of our pending cases is generally not yet determinable. While some of these matters could be material to our operating results or cash flows for any particular period if an unfavorable outcome results, at present we do not believe the ultimate resolution of currently pending legal proceedings, either individually or in the aggregate, will have a material adverse effect on our financial condition. Ellis v. Dun and Bradstreet, U.S. District Court for the Central District of California On December 6, 2018, the Company was served with a complaint, captioned Dr. Jonathan C. Ellis v. Dun and Bradstreet, Inc. (the “Complaint”). The Complaint alleges that in or about April 2018, the Dun & Bradstreet report on Doheny Endosurgical Center, which is owned by the plaintiff, was updated to incorrectly include a reference to a Dr. Jonathon Ellis, who was charged with criminal activity relating to a minor. The Complaint contains two causes of action, libel per se and false light invasion of privacy, and seeks compensatory and punitive damages. Dun & Bradstreet filed its Answer to the Complaint on January 17, 2019 and a motion to strike the complaint under California’s anti-SLAPP statute, Cal. Civ. Proc. Code § 425.16 on February 27, 2019. After the parties conducted discovery limited to the issues raised by the motion and finalized briefing on the motion, the Court held a hearing on October 2, 2019, ordered the parties to provide supplemental briefing, and on November 20, 2019, entered an order denying the anti-SLAPP motion. Dun & Bradstreet filed a notice of interlocutory appeal of the decision on December 4, 2019, and the opening appeal brief is presently due on September 14, 2020. On May 28, 2020, the parties engaged in a mediation via videoconference before a Ninth Circuit mediator assigned to the case, but the case did not resolve; however, on June 30, 2020, the parties reached an oral agreement in principle to resolve the action, which is subject to the negotiation and execution of a written settlement agreement. Based on settlement discussions, a reserve has been accrued by the Company for this matter in the consolidated financial statements. The amount of such reserve is not material to the Company’s financial statements. Because of the pending appeal and because the parties have engaged in only limited discovery on discrete issues, we do not have sufficient information upon which to determine that any additional loss in connection with this matter is probable, reasonably possible or estimable. In addition, in the normal course of business, and including without limitation, our merger and acquisition activities, strategic relationships and financing transactions, the Company indemnifies other parties, including clients, lessors and parties to other transactions with the Company, with respect to certain matters. We have agreed to hold the other parties harmless against losses arising from a breach of representations or covenants, or arising out of other claims made against certain parties. These agreements may limit the time within which an indemnification claim can be made and the amount of the claim. The Company has also entered into indemnity obligations with its officers and directors. Additionally, in certain circumstances, the Company issues guarantee letters on behalf of our wholly owned subsidiaries for specific situations. It is not possible to determine the maximum potential amount of future payments under these indemnification agreements due to the limited history of prior indemnification claims and the unique facts and circumstances involved in each particular agreement. Historically, payments made by Dun & Bradstreet under these agreements have not had a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.

Income Taxes	Jun. 30, 2020
Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract]
Income Taxes	Income Taxes In response to liquidity issues that businesses are facing as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, The Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (the “CARES Act” or the “Act”) was signed into law on March 27, 2020 by the U.S. government. The Act provides for a five-year carryback of federal net operating losses generated in tax years beginning in 2018, 2019, or 2020. In addition, the Act temporarily increases the deductible interest expense, for tax years beginning in 2019 and 2020. See further discussion below. The effective tax rate for the three months ended June 30, 2020 (Successor) was 13.6%, reflecting a tax benefit of $27.5 million on a pre-tax loss of $201.9 million, compared to 26.7% for the three months ended June 30, 2019, reflecting a tax benefit of $23.1 million on a pre-tax loss of $86.4 million. The lower effective tax rate for the three months ended June 30, 2020 compared to the prior year period was primarily due to the non-deductible expense associated with the fair value adjustment related to the Series A Preferred Stock make-whole derivative liability. The effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2020 (Successor) was 50.2%, reflecting a tax benefit of $101.8 million on a pre-tax loss of $202.9 million, compared to 18.0% for the period from January 1, 2019 to June 30, 2019 (Successor), reflecting a tax benefit of $60.1 million on a pre-tax loss of $333.1 million, and 26.7% for the period from January 1, 2019 to February 7, 2019 (Predecessor), reflecting a tax benefit of $27.5 million on a pre-tax loss of $102.8 million. The effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2020 (Successor) was positively impacted by the $53.7 million net benefit resulting from the enactment of the Act which allows for the carryback of U.S. net operating losses arising in 2018, 2019 or 2020 to each of the five preceding years for which the corporate tax rate for certain years was 35% (periods prior to 2018), as compared to the current 21% tax rate. The aforementioned benefit was partially offset by the impact of non-deductible expense associated with the fair value adjustment related to the Series A Preferred Stock make-whole derivative liability. The effective rate for both the period from January 1, 2019 to June 30, 2019 (Successor) and the period from January 1, 2019 to February 7, 2019 (Predecessor), was negatively impacted by non-deductible transaction costs incurred as part of the Take-Private Transaction, partially offset by the excess tax benefit related to the acceleration of the vesting of equity-based awards in connection with the Take-Private Transaction for the period January 1, 2019 to February 7, 2019 (Predecessor).

The entire disclosure for income taxes. Disclosures may include net deferred tax liability or asset recognized in an enterprise's statement of financial position, net change during the year in the total valuation allowance, approximate tax effect of each type of temporary difference and carryforward that gives rise to a significant portion of deferred tax liabilities and deferred tax assets, utilization of a tax carryback, and tax uncertainties information.

In connection with the Take-Private Transaction, a change in control was triggered for a portion of our U.S. Non-Qualified Plans upon shareholder approval of the transaction on November 7, 2018 and a settlement payment of $190.5 million was made in January 2019. For the remainder of the U.S. Non-Qualified Plans, a change in control was triggered upon the close of the transaction on February 8, 2019 and a settlement payment of $105.9 million was made in March 2019, effectively settling our U.S. Non-Qualified Plan obligation. As a result, we recorded a settlement charge of $85.8 million in the period from January 1, 2019 to February 7, 2019 (Predecessor).

Also in connection with the Take-Private Transaction, we have remeasured our global pension and postretirement plans on February 8, 2019 to recognize as part of the transaction an asset or a liability representing the funded status of each of the plans. The unrecognized actuarial losses or gains were set to zero as of February 8, 2019 as a result of purchase accounting.

Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities Disclosure [Abstract]

Financial Instruments

We employ established policies and procedures to manage our exposure to changes in interest rates and foreign currencies. We use foreign exchange forward and option contracts to hedge certain short-term foreign currency denominated loans and third-party and intercompany transactions. We may also use foreign exchange forward contracts to hedge our net investments in our foreign subsidiaries. In addition, we may use interest rate derivatives to hedge a portion of the interest rate exposure on our outstanding debt or in anticipation of a future debt issuance, as discussed under “Interest Rate Risk Management” below.

We do not use derivative financial instruments for trading or speculative purposes. If a hedging instrument ceases to qualify as a hedge in accordance with hedge accounting guidelines, any subsequent gains and losses are recognized currently in income. Collateral is generally not required for these types of instruments.

By their nature, all such instruments involve risk, including the credit risk of non-performance by counterparties. However, at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, there was no significant risk of loss in the event of non-performance of the counterparties to these financial instruments. We control our exposure to credit risk through monitoring procedures.

Our trade receivables do not represent a significant concentration of credit risk at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, because we sell to a large number of clients in different geographical locations and industries.

Interest Rate Risk Management

Our objective in managing our exposure to interest rates is to limit the impact of interest rate changes on our earnings, cash flows and financial position, and to lower our overall borrowing costs. To achieve these objectives, we maintain a practice that floating-rate debt be managed within a minimum and maximum range of our total debt exposure. To manage our exposure and limit volatility, we may use fixed-rate debt, floating-rate debt and/or interest rate swaps. We recognize all derivative instruments as either assets or liabilities at fair value in the consolidated balance sheet.

We use interest rate swaps to manage the impact of interest rate changes on our earnings. Under the swap agreements, we make monthly payments based on the fixed interest rate and receive monthly payments based on the floating rate. The objective of the swaps is to mitigate the variation of future cash flows from changes in the floating interest rates on our existing debt. For further detail of our debt, see Note 5. The swaps are designated and accounted for as cash flow hedges. Changes in the fair value of the hedging instruments are recorded in Other Comprehensive Income (Loss) and reclassified to earnings in the same line item associated with the hedged item when the hedged item impacts earnings.

The notional amount of the interest rate swap was $129.0 million at June 30, 2020 and $214.0 million at December 31, 2019.

Foreign Exchange Risk Management

Our objective in managing exposure to foreign currency fluctuations is to reduce the volatility caused by foreign exchange rate changes on the earnings, cash flows and financial position of our international operations. From time to time, we follow a practice of hedging certain balance sheet positions denominated in currencies other than the functional currency applicable to each of our various subsidiaries. In addition, we are subject to foreign exchange risk associated with our international earnings and net investments in our foreign subsidiaries. We may use short-term, foreign exchange forward and, from time to time, option contracts to execute our hedging strategies. Typically, these contracts have maturities of 12 months or less. These contracts are denominated primarily in the British pound sterling, the Euro, the Singapore dollar and the Hong Kong dollar. The gains and losses on the forward contracts associated with our balance sheet positions are recorded in “Other Income (Expense) – Net” in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss) and are essentially offset by the

losses and gains on the underlying foreign currency transactions. Our foreign exchange forward contracts are not designated as hedging instruments under authoritative guidance.

In prior years, to decrease earnings volatility, we hedged substantially all our intercompany balance positions denominated in a currency other than the functional currency applicable to each of our various subsidiaries with short-term, foreign exchange forward contracts. Beginning in the third quarter of 2019, certain balance sheet positions were no longer being hedged in order to reduce the volatility of cash flows required to settle these forward contracts. However, starting in the third quarter of 2020, we resumed our practice of hedging substantially all our intercompany balance positions. The underlying transactions and the corresponding foreign exchange forward contracts are marked to market at the end of each quarter and the fair value impacts are reflected within the consolidated financial statements.

As of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the notional amounts of our foreign exchange contracts were $102.4 million and $152.0 million, respectively.

(1)The carrying value of cash equivalents represents fair value as they consist of highly liquid investments with an initial term from the date of purchase by the Company to maturity of three months or less.

(2)Primarily represents foreign currency forward contracts. Fair value is determined based on observable market data and considers a factor for nonperformance in the valuation.

(3)Represents interest rate swap agreements. Fair value is determined based on observable market data.

(4)Represents estimated fair value related to the make-whole provision associated with the Series A Preferred Stock based on level III market data.

There were no transfers between Levels I and II or transfers in or transfers out of Level III in the fair value hierarchy for the six months ended June 30, 2020 (Successor), the period from January 1, 2019 to June 30, 2019 (Successor), and the period from January 1, 2019 to February 7, 2019 (Predecessor).

At June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the fair value of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, other receivables and accounts payable approximated carrying value due to the short-term nature of these instruments. The estimated fair values of other financial instruments subject to fair value disclosures, determined based on valuation models using discounted cash flow methodologies with market data inputs from globally recognized data providers and third-party quotes from major financial institutions (categorized as Level II in the fair value hierarchy), are as follows:


	Balance at

(2) Includes short-term and long-term portions of the New Term Loan Facility.

Items Measured at Fair Value on a Nonrecurring Basis

In addition to assets and liabilities that are recorded at fair value on a recurring basis, we record assets and liabilities at fair value on a nonrecurring basis as required by GAAP. Generally, assets are recorded at fair value on a nonrecurring basis as a result of impairment charges and for acquisition accounting in accordance with the guidance in ASC 805 "Business Combinations."

Take-Private Transaction

Take-Private Transaction

On August 8, 2018, Dun & Bradstreet entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) with Parent and Merger Sub. On February 8, 2019, pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, Merger Sub merged with and into Dun & Bradstreet with Dun & Bradstreet continuing as the surviving corporation. Investors of Merger Sub believe that Dun & Bradstreet’s strong market position and financial performance can be further reinforced by executing additional growth initiatives and implementing cost saving initiatives.

The Take-Private Transaction was funded through $3,076.8 million of cash from the issuance of common and preferred shares, as well as $4,043.0 million borrowings from notes issuance and Credit Facilities (see Note 5 for further discussion). The net proceeds were used to (i) finance the consummation of the Take-Private Transaction, (ii) repay in full all outstanding indebtedness under Dun & Bradstreet’s then-existing credit facilities, (iii) fund the redemption of all Dun & Bradstreet’s then-existing senior notes and (iv) pay related fees, costs, premiums and expenses in connection with these transactions.

Upon the close of the Take-Private Transaction, each share of common stock of Dun & Bradstreet, formerly publicly-traded under the symbol of “DNB”, was cancelled and converted into the right to receive $145.00 in cash, without interest and subject to any applicable withholding taxes. In addition, each then-outstanding stock option and restricted stock units of Dun & Bradstreet, whether vested or unvested, was cancelled and converted into the right to receive $145.00 in cash, less applicable exercise price, without interest.

On February 8, 2019, as required by the related change in control provision in the following agreements, the Company repaid in full the outstanding borrowings under the then-existing Revolving Five-Year Credit Agreement and the Term Loan Credit Agreement, both dated as of June 19, 2018. In addition, on February 8, 2019, notices of full redemption with respect to the Company’s (i) 4.00% Senior Notes due 2020 (the “2020 Notes”), in an aggregate principal amount of $300 million, and (ii) 4.37% Senior Notes due 2022 (the “2022 Notes” and, together with the 2020 Notes, the “Existing Notes”), in an aggregate principal amount of $300 million, were delivered to the respective holders thereof, notifying those holders of the redemption of the entire outstanding aggregate principal amount of each series of Existing Notes on March 10, 2019.

The merger was accounted for in accordance with ASC 805, and the Company was determined to be the accounting acquiror.

The Take-Private Transaction was valued at $6,068.7 million of which $5,431.2 million was paid to acquire Dun & Bradstreet’s common stock, including stock options and restricted stock units, based on $145.00 per share and $637.5 million was paid to extinguish the then-existing debt on and following the Take-Private Transaction closing date. Assets and liabilities were recorded at the estimated fair value at the Take-Private Transaction closing date.

Transaction costs incurred by the Predecessor of $52.0 million were included in Selling and Administrative Expenses of Predecessor’s results of operations for the period from January 1, 2019 to February 7, 2019. Transaction costs of $147.4 million incurred by Merger Sub were included in Selling and Administrative Expenses of Successor’s results of operations for the period from January 1, 2019 to March 31, 2019. Successor’s accumulated deficit as of December 31, 2018 includes approximately $13 million related to Merger Sub’s transaction costs incurred in 2018.

The fair value of the customer relationships and partnership agreements intangible assets were determined by applying the income approach through a discounted cash flow analysis, specifically a multi-period excess earnings method. The valuation was based on the present value of the net earnings attributable to the measured assets.

The computer software intangible asset represents our data supply and service platform to deliver customer services and solutions. The fair value of this intangible asset was determined by the cost replacement approach.

Trademark intangible asset represents our Dun & Bradstreet brand. Database represents our global proprietary market leading database. We applied the income approach to value trademark and database intangible assets, specifically, a relief from royalty method. The valuation was based on the present value of the net earnings attributable to the measured asset.

The fair value of the deferred revenue was determined based on estimated direct costs to fulfill the related obligations, plus a reasonable profit margin based on selected peer companies’ margins as a benchmark.

The fair values of the acquired assets and liabilities were subject to change within the one-year measurement period. We obtained information to determine the fair values of the net assets acquired at the acquisition date during the measurement period. Since the initial valuation reflected in our financial results as of March 31, 2019, we have allocated goodwill and intangible assets between our North America and International segments, as well as among reporting units based on their respective projected cash flows. In addition, we recorded adjustments to the deferred tax liability reflecting the allocation of intangible assets between segments. The above measurement period adjustments to the preliminary valuation of assets and liabilities resulted in a net reduction of goodwill of $10.0 million during 2019. We have completed the purchase accounting process as of December 31, 2019.

The value of the goodwill is primarily related to the expected cost savings and growth opportunity associated with product development. The intangible assets, with useful lives from 8 to 17 years, are being amortized over a weighted-average useful life of 16.5 years. The customer relationship and database intangible assets are amortized using an accelerating method. Computer software and partnership agreements intangible assets are amortized using a straight-line method. The amortization methods reflect the timing of the benefits derived from each of the intangible assets.

The goodwill acquired is not deductible for tax purposes.

Acquisitions

2020 Acquisitions

On January 7, 2020 we acquired a 100% equity interest in Orb Intelligence (“Orb”) for a purchase price of $11.5 million. Orb Intelligence offers a high quality, global database of information, with a focus on building a digital view of businesses' presence.

On March 11, 2020, we acquired coAction.com for a purchase price of $9.6 million, of which $4.8 million was paid upon the close of the transaction and the remaining $4.8 million will be paid in six months from the date of the acquisition. coAction.com is a leader in revenue cycle management in the Order-to-Cash process, serving mid to large size companies across multiple industries.

The acquisitions were accounted for in accordance with ASC 805 “Business Combinations,” as purchase transactions, and accordingly, the assets and liabilities of the acquired entities were recorded at their estimated fair values at the respective dates of the acquisitions. Transaction costs of $0.2 million were included in Selling and Administrative Expenses in the consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive income (loss) for the three months ended March 31, 2020 (Successor). We have included the financial results of the acquired companies in our consolidated financial statements since their respective acquisition dates, and the results from each of these companies were not individually or in the aggregate material to our consolidated financial statements.

The table below reflects the aggregate purchase price related to the acquisitions and the resulting purchase allocation:


	Amortization Life (years)	Preliminary Purchase Price Allocation at March 31, 2020		Measurement Period Adjustments		Preliminary Purchase Price Allocation at June 30, 2020

The fair value of the customer relationships intangible assets was determined by applying the income approach through a discounted cash flow analysis, specifically a multi-period excess earnings method. The valuation was based on the present value of the net earnings attributable to the measured assets.

The fair value of the technology intangible assets was determined by applying the income approach; specifically, a relief from royalty method.

We believe that the information gathered to date provides a reasonable basis for estimating the fair values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed. If facts and circumstances arise that necessitate change, we will adjust the associated fair values. Thus, the provisional measurements of fair value set forth above are subject to change. We expect to further analyze certain assumptions applied to the valuation models and the calculation of deferred income tax. We expect to complete the purchase accounting process as soon as practicable but no later than one year from the respective acquisition dates.

The value of the goodwill is primarily related to the acquired businesses’ capability associated with product development which provides opportunity to expand our products and services offerings as well as cost synergy generated from the combined business. The intangible assets are amortized using a straight-line method. The amortization method reflects the timing of the benefits derived from each of the intangible assets.

The goodwill acquired is partially deductible for tax purposes.

2019 Acquisition

Segment Reporting [Abstract]

Segment Information

Since the Take-Private Transaction, management has made changes to transform our business. As a result, during the fourth quarter of 2019, we changed the composition of our reportable segments, the classification of revenue by solution set and our measure of segment profit (from operating income to adjusted EBITDA) in the information that we provide to our CODMs to better align with how they assess performance and allocate resources. Latin America Worldwide Network, which was previously included in the Americas reportable segment, is currently included in the International segment. Accordingly, prior period results have been recast to conform to the current presentation of segments, revenue by solution set, and the measure of segment profit. These changes do not impact our consolidated results.

Our segment disclosure is intended to provide the users of our consolidated financial statements with a view of the business that is consistent with management of the Company.

We manage our business and report our financial results through the following two segments:

•North America offers Finance & Risk and Sales & Marketing data, analytics and business insights in the United States and Canada; and

•International offers Finance & Risk and Sales & Marketing data, analytics and business insights directly in the U.K., Greater China, India and indirectly through our Worldwide Network Alliances.

We define adjusted EBITDA as net income (loss) attributable to Dun & Bradstreet Holdings, Inc. (Successor)/The Dun & Bradstreet Corporation (Predecessor) excluding the following items: (i) depreciation and amortization; (ii) interest expense and income; (iii) income tax benefit or provision; (iv) other expenses or income; (v) equity in net income of affiliates; (vi) net income attributable to non-controlling interests; (vii) dividends allocated to preferred stockholders; (viii) revenue and expense adjustments to include results for the period from January 8 to February 7, 2019, for the Predecessor related to the International lag adjustment; (ix) other incremental or reduced expenses from the application of purchase accounting (e.g. commission asset amortization); (x) equity-based compensation; (xi) restructuring charges; (xii) merger and acquisition-related operating costs; (xiii) transition costs primarily consisting of non-recurring incentive expenses associated with our synergy program; (xiv) legal reserve and costs associated with significant legal and regulatory matters; and (xv) asset impairment. Our client solution sets are Finance & Risk and Sales & Marketing. Inter-segment sales are immaterial, and no single client accounted for 10% or more of our total revenue.

Initial Public Offering (IPO)

Related Parties	6 Months Ended
Related Parties	Jun. 30, 2020
Related Party Transactions [Abstract]
Related Parties	Related Parties The following sets forth certain transactions and agreements in which the Company and our affiliates, executive officers and certain directors are involved. As a result of the completion of the Take-Private Transaction on February 8, 2019, the Company was directly owned by Parent, which was collectively controlled by entities affiliated with members of the Investor Consortium. Subsequent to the close of the IPO and the concurrent private placement on July 6, 2020 (see Note 18 for further discussion), the Investor Consortium continues to be able to exercise significant voting influence over fundamental and significant corporate matters and transactions by their ability to designate five members of our board of directors. Upon the close of the Take-Private Transaction, Anthony Jabbour was appointed as Chief Executive Officer of the Company while continuing his role as Black Knight’s Chief Executive Officer. Stephen Daffron, co-founder of Motive Partners, became our President and Chief Operating Officer. Additionally, William P. Foley II serves as Chairman of the Company’s board of directors, while continuing his role as Chairman of the board of directors of both Cannae Holdings and Black Knight. Further, Richard N. Massey, a member of the Company’s board of directors, serves as Chief Executive Officer and as a director of Cannae Holdings. Certain other key employees have dual responsibilities among the Investor Consortium. Subsequent to the close of the IPO transaction, the above relationships remain the same. On February 8, 2019, the Company entered into a services agreement with MVB Management, LLC (‘‘MVB’’), an entity affiliated with William P. Foley II, who is affiliated with Bilcar, and Chinh E. Chu, who is affiliated with CC Capital, and THL Managers VIII, LLC (‘‘THL Managers’’), an entity affiliated with THL, pursuant to which MVB and THL Managers provided services in connection with the Take-Private Transaction. The Company paid a total fee of $29.1 million to MVB under the agreement upon the close of the Take-Private Transaction, which we included as ‘‘Selling and Administrative Expenses’’ in the Successor’s statement of operations and comprehensive income (loss) for the period from January 1, 2019 to June 30, 2019. Under the services agreement, the Company must reimburse the reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses incurred by MVB and THL Managers in performing the ongoing services. The Company has made no payments pursuant to the reimbursement provision during the six months ended June 30, 2020 and the period from January 1, 2019 to June 30, 2019. The reimbursement provision was terminated following the IPO transaction. Also in connection with the IPO transaction, we paid fees of $2.5 million each to THL Managers and entities affiliated with William P. Foley II and Chinh E. Chu (Bilcar and CC Star Holdings, LP, respectively) for services provided. Pursuant to the equity commitment fee letter entered into on February 8, 2019 with THL Managers and Cannae Holdings, each committed to provide certain funding to Parent in connection with the Take-Private Transaction for which THL Managers and Cannae Holdings received a fee of $7.5 million and $12.0 million, respectively. These fees reduced the proceeds from capital contribution to the Company made in February 2019. Pursuant to the Star Parent Partnership Agreement, an entity jointly controlled by affiliates of CC Capital and Bilcar (the ‘‘Originating Sponsors’’) was granted 6,817.7428 Class B profits interest units of Parent, which were valued at $17.3 million and were included as ‘‘Selling and Administrative Expenses’’ in the Successor’s statement of operations for the period from January 1, 2019 to June 30, 2019. Pursuant to the Star Parent Partnership Agreement, the Originating Sponsors also received 15,867.8087 Class C profits interest units of Parent upon the close of the Take-Private Transaction. The units were valued at approximately $37.9 million. Upon the close of the Take-Private Transaction, Motive Partners received $0.6 million related to due diligence consulting services pursuant to a services agreement between Parent and Motive Partners. During the Successor period from January 1, 2019 to December 31, 2019, Motive Partners was retained to provide certain technology consulting services. Total cost incurred during the period from January 1, 2019 to June 30, 2019 for such services was immaterial. In August 2019, the Company entered into a five-year lease agreement with Motive Partners related to the office space for the Company’s London sales office starting August 1, 2019. Total lease costs incurred for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 were $0.5 million and $1.1 million, respectively. This lease was terminated in June 2020 with a termination fee of $0.1 million. In December 2019, the Company entered into a one-year lease agreement with Motive Partners for operations in New York starting January 1, 2020. Total payments over the one-year lease term aggregate to approximately $0.2 million. In the normal course of business, we reimburse affiliates for certain travel costs incurred by Dun & Bradstreet Holdings, Inc. executives and board members. The amounts included in Selling & Administrative Expenses were less than $0.1 million for the Successor three months ended June 30, 2020, $0.4 million for the Successor six months ended June 30, 2020 and $0.2 million for the Successor three months ended June 30, 2019 and the period from January 1, 2019 to June 30, 2019. In addition, we had a payable to affiliates of $0.5 million at June 30, 2020, related to services provided for the IPO transaction, which was netted against the IPO proceeds upon closing. On January 1, 2020, the Company entered into a three-year service agreement with Trasimene Capital Management, LLC (the “Advisor”), an entity affiliated with Cannae Holdings, and controlled by Mr. Foley. The agreement is subject to renewal. Pursuant to the agreement, the Advisor provides the Company strategic advisory services, in exchange for transaction fees that are calculated based on 1% of the value of each transaction for which the Advisor performs services. Under the service agreement, the Company is also obligated to reimburse the reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Advisor. We incurred costs of $0.4 million for transaction fees to the Advisor for the six months ended June 30, 2020. In connection with the IPO transaction, the Originating Sponsors agreed to waive certain anti-dilution rights they had pursuant to the Star Parent Partnership Agreement and to terminate such provision following the offering. In exchange for such waiver and termination, we made a payment of $30.0 million to the Originating Sponsors upon the closing of the IPO transaction on July 6, 2020. In addition, on June 30, 2020, each of Mr. Foley and Mr. Chu received options to purchase 2,080,000 shares of our common stock at an exercise price equal to the initial public offering price. The options were fully vested upon grant. The options were valued at $20.0 million, which was included in Selling & Administrative Expenses for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020. In connection with and immediately subsequent to the closing of the IPO, a subsidiary of Cannae Holdings, a subsidiary of Black Knight and affiliates of CC Capital purchased a total of 18,458,700 shares of common stock from us in a private placement at a price per share equal to 98.5% of the IPO price of $22.00 per share for proceeds of $200.0 million, $100.0 million and $100.0 million, respectively.

Preferred Stock	6 Months Ended
Preferred Stock	Jun. 30, 2020
Equity [Abstract]
Preferred Stock	Preferred Stock Prior to June 30, 2020, the Company classified its Series A Preferred Stock as mezzanine equity because the instrument contained a redemption feature which was contingent upon certain events, the occurrence of which was not solely within the control of the Company. We have bifurcated embedded derivatives and assess fair value each reporting date. We recorded a loss $102.6 million and $32.8 million within ‘‘Other income (expense)— net,’’ for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, respectively, reflecting the adjustments to the fair value of the make-whole derivative liability. As of June 30, 2020, we determined the fair value of the make-whole provision to be $205.2 million, reflected as ‘‘Make-whole derivative liability’’ within the condensed consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2020. Upon the closing of the IPO on July 6, 2020 (see further discussion in Note 18), we have redeemed all of the outstanding Series A Preferred Stock as required by the Certificate of Designation. In addition, we made the total make-whole payment of $205.2 million. We also recorded accretion of $35.1 million and $36.1 million using the interest method for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, respectively. As of June 30, 2020, Series A Preferred Stock was fully accreted to the redeemable balance of $1,067.9 million and was classified as current liability. On May 14, 2020, March 4, 2020 and May 31, 2019, the board of directors of Dun & Bradstreet Holdings, Inc. declared a cash dividend of $30.51 per share to all holders of shares of Series A Preferred Stock, respectively. An aggregate amount of $32.1 million, $32.0 million, $10.7 million and $21.3 million was paid on June 26, 2020, May 27, 2020, June 28, 2019 and on June 19, 2019, respectively.

Initial Public Offering (IPO)

6 Months Ended

Jun. 30, 2020

Equity [Abstract]

On July 6, 2020, we completed an IPO of 90,047,612 shares of our common stock, par value $0.0001 per share at an offering price of $22.00 per share. Immediately subsequent to the closing of the IPO, a subsidiary of Cannae Holdings, a subsidiary of Black Knight and affiliates of CC Capital purchased a total of 18,458,700 shares of common stock from us in a private placement at a price per share equal to 98.5% of the IPO price for proceeds of $200.0 million, $100.0 million and $100.0 million, respectively. A total of 108,506,312 shares of common stock were issued in the IPO and concurrent private placement for gross proceeds of $2,381.0 million. The use of the proceeds from the IPO is as follows (in millions):


Gross proceeds	$	2,381.0
Less:
Underwriter fees	89.1
IPO related expenses (a)	42.3
Redemption of Series A Preferred Stock	1,067.9
Make-whole payment on redemption of
Series A Preferred Stock	205.2
Partial redemption of 10.250% New Senior
Unsecured Notes and accrued interest	312.0
Call premium on partial redemption
of 10.250% New Senior Unsecured Notes	30.8
Cash to balance sheet	$	633.7

(a) Includes payment of $30.0 million to the Originating Sponsors, in connection with the waiver and termination of anti-dilution rights in the Star Parent Partnership Agreement. Also in connection with the IPO transaction, we paid fees of $2.5 million each to THL Managers and entities affiliated with William P. Foley II and Chinh E. Chu (Bilcar and CC Star Holdings, LP, respectively) for services provided.

In connection with the IPO, the following transactions occurred:

•On June 23, 2020, we increased our authorized common stock to 2,000,000,000 and our authorized preferred stock to 25,000,000 and effected a 314,494.968 for 1 stock split of our common stock. All of the common share and per share

information in the consolidated financial statements for the Successor periods have been retroactively adjusted to reflect the increase in authorized common stock and stock split;

•In connection with the closing of the IPO and the concurrent private placement on July 6, 2020, all outstanding equity incentive awards in the form of profits interests were converted into common units of Star Parent, L.P. which retain the original time-based vesting schedule and are subject to the same forfeiture terms applicable to such unvested units.

In connection with the IPO, we adopted the Dun & Bradstreet 2020 Omnibus Incentive Plan (the ‘‘2020 Omnibus Incentive Plan’’). The 2020 Omnibus Incentive Plan is intended to provide flexibility to motivate, attract and retain the employees, directors, and service providers who are expected to make significant contributions to our success and allow participants to share in such success. On June 30, 2020, certain directors were granted 4,160,000 options to purchase shares of common stock of Dun & Bradstreet Holdings, Inc. at $22.00 per share, which were vested immediately. In addition, 3,840,000 stock options were granted to certain executives which will vest ratably over three years, commencing on the first anniversary of the grant date. All stock options expire seven years from the date of the grant. Total compensation expense associated with these grants is $39.9 million. We estimated the option fair value at the date of grant using Black-Scholes valuation model. The assumptions are set forth in the following table:


Weighted Average Assumptions
Weighted Average Expected Stock Price Volatility	28	%
Weighted Average Expected Dividend Yield	0.0	%
Weighted Average Expected Life of Option (in years)	3.98
Weighted Average Risk-Free Interest Rate	0.23	%
Weighted Average Black Scholes Value	$4.99
Weighted Average Exercise Price	$22.00

Expected stock price volatility was derived from the historical volatility of companies in our peer group. The risk-free interest rate assumption corresponds to the time to liquidity assumption and is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time.

We recognized stock-based compensation expense of $20.0 million related to these option grants for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020. In addition, we recognized $3.4 million in connection with the acceleration of the vesting of certain directors' profit interest units upon the closing of the IPO on July 6, 2020.

Basis of Presentation (Policies)	6 Months Ended
Basis of Presentation (Policies)	Jun. 30, 2020
Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]
Basis of Presentation	The accompanying interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of Dun & Bradstreet Holdings, Inc. (formerly Star Intermediate I, Inc.) and its subsidiaries (‘‘we’’ ‘‘us’’ ‘‘our’’ or the ‘‘Company’’) were prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (‘‘GAAP’’). They should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes, which appear in the consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2019, included in our final prospectus dated June 30, 2020 and filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on July 2, 2020. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for interim periods do not include all disclosures required by GAAP for annual financial statements and are not necessarily indicative of results for the full year or any subsequent period. In the opinion of our management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair statement of the unaudited consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flows at the dates and for the periods presented have been included.
Basis of Consolidation	All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.
Segment Reporting	Since the Take-Private Transaction, management has made changes to transform our business. As a result, during the fourth quarter of 2019, we changed the composition of our reportable segments, the classification of revenue by solution set and our measure of segment profit (from operating income to adjusted EBITDA (see Note 15 for further discussion of adjusted EBITDA) in the information that we provide to our chief operating decision makers (CODMs) to better align with how they assess performance and allocate resources. Latin America Worldwide Network, which was previously included in the Americas reportable segment, is currently included in the International segment. Accordingly, prior period results have been recast to conform to the current presentation of segments, revenue by solution, and the measure of segment profit. These changes do not impact our consolidated results. We manage our business and report our financial results through the following two segments: •North America offers Finance & Risk and Sales & Marketing data, analytics and business insights in the United States and Canada; and •International offers Finance & Risk and Sales & Marketing data, analytics and business insights directly in the United Kingdom/Ireland ("U.K."), Greater China, India and indirectly through our Worldwide Network Alliances. Except as described below, the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect results of the subsidiaries outside of North America for the three-month and six-month periods ended May 31 in order to facilitate the timely reporting of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial results and unaudited condensed consolidated financial position. For the period from January 1, 2019 to June 30, 2019 (Successor), the results of subsidiaries outside of North America are reflected for the period from February 8, 2019 through May 31, 2019. For the period from January 1 to February 7, 2019 (Predecessor), the results of subsidiaries outside of North America are reflected for the period from December 1, 2018 to January 7, 2019.
Use of Estimates	Our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements presented herein reflect the latest estimates and assumptions made by management that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and related disclosures as of the date of the unaudited consolidated financial statements and reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods presented. Since early 2020, the novel coronavirus ("COVID-19") global pandemic has caused disruptions in the economy and volatility in the global financial markets. There is considerable uncertainty regarding its duration and the speed of recovery. The extent of the impact of the COVID-19 global pandemic on our operations and financial performance will depend on the effects on our clients and vendors, which are uncertain at this time and cannot be predicted. In addition, the pandemic may affect management's estimates and assumptions of variable consideration in contracts with clients as well as other estimates and assumptions, in particular those that require a projection of our financial results, our cash flows or broader economic conditions.
Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements & Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements	Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-15, “Customer’s Accounting for Implementation Costs Incurred in a Cloud Computing Arrangement that is a Service Contract: Disclosures for Implementation Costs Incurred for Internal-Use Software and Cloud Computing Arrangements - a consensus of the EITF.” The standard aligns the accounting for costs incurred to implement a cloud computing arrangement that is a service arrangement with the guidance on capitalizing costs associated with developing or obtaining internal-use software. Costs incurred during the planning and post implementation stages are typically expensed, while costs incurred during the development stage are typically capitalized. The capitalized implementation costs are to be expensed over the term of the hosting arrangement including renewal options to the extent those options are expected to be utilized. This update also requires the capitalized implementation costs to be presented in the consolidated financial statements consistent with the presentation of the ongoing fees and payments associated with the cloud arrangement. We adopted this update as of January 1, 2020 and applied its amendments prospectively to implementation costs incurred after the date of adoption. This update did not have a material effect on our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, “Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments.” The standard changes the impairment model for most financial assets and certain other instruments. For trade and other receivables, held-to-maturity debt securities, loans and other instruments, entities are required to use a new forward-looking “expected loss” model that generally will result in the earlier recognition of allowances for losses. For available-for-sale debt securities with unrealized losses, entities measure credit losses in a manner similar to what is required under the existing guidance, except that the losses will be recognized as allowances rather than reductions in the amortized cost of the securities. We adopted this update as of January 1, 2020. This update did not have a material effect on our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-12, "Income Taxes (Topic 740)." The amendments in this Update simplify the accounting for income taxes by removing certain exceptions to the general principles in Topic 740. The amendments also improve consistent application of and simplify GAAP for other areas of Topic 740 by clarifying and amending existing guidance. For public business entities, the amendments in this Update are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2020. For all other entities, the amendments in this Update are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021 and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022. We do not expect the adoption of this authoritative guidance to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements. In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-14, “Compensation-Retirement Benefits-Defined Benefit Plans- General (Topic 715-20): Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Defined Benefit Plans.” The standard amends ASC 715, “Compensation - Retirement Benefits,” to add, remove, and clarify disclosure requirements related to defined benefit pension and other postretirement plans. The amendments are to be applied retrospectively. The standard is effective for public business entities for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2020, and for all other entities for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2021. Early adoption is permitted. The adoption of this authoritative guidance will not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.
