CORELOGIC FILES DEFINITIVE PROXY STATEMENT FOR NOVEMBER 17 SPECIAL MEETING

Urges Shareholders to Vote WHITE Proxy Card “AGAINST” Senator/Cannae Proposals

Irvine, Calif., September 22, 2020 - CoreLogic (NYSE: CLGX), a leading global provider of property information, insight, analytics and data-enabled solutions, today filed its definitive proxy statement with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) in connection with its upcoming Special Meeting of Shareholders on November 17, 2020. The proxy statement and other important information related to the Special Meeting can be found at CoreLogicValue.com.

The CoreLogic Board of Directors unanimously recommends shareholders vote AGAINST the removal of CoreLogic’s directors using the WHITE proxy card, so that the Company can continue to execute on its successful strategy for sustainable growth and substantial shareholder value creation.

Highlights of CoreLogic’s performance include:

 

   

We are delivering outstanding financial and operational performance. Our strong financial results in 2020 are supported by increasing organic growth and recurring revenues as well as record profitability, margins, and free cash flow. We have just raised financial guidance for 2020 and 2021, which underscores our high confidence in CoreLogic’s future and the value-creation opportunities inherent in continued execution of our strategic plan.

 

   

The Company believes it is poised for significant valuation upside, which shareholders will not benefit from under Senator/Cannae’s inadequate acquisition proposal. The Board remains open to all paths to create value, but we are confident in our view that we will produce value for shareholders far in excess of $66.00 per share. CoreLogic has provided significant transparency and detailed information to all shareholders, including Senator and Cannae, through multi-year projections, margin targets, planned divestitures and capital allocation plans, that we believe clearly demonstrates that CoreLogic is worth substantially more than $66.00 per share.


LOGO

 

   

Our Board of Directors is comprised of highly qualified independent directors with track records of shareholder value creation and taking decisive actions to ensure continuing success in an evolving industry landscape. We believe the Senator/Cannae nominees are inherently conflicted and lack the breadth and depth of experience that CoreLogic’s current directors possess and is necessary to provide effective oversight of CoreLogic.

Your Board of Directors recommends that you vote AGAINST all of Senator/Cannae’s proposals using the WHITE proxy card

You can easily vote by mail, phone, or online as follows:

 

 

You can simply sign, date and return the WHITE proxy card/voting instruction form by mail in the envelope provided.

 

 

OR, even easier, you can vote by phone or by Internet:

 

   

Just locate the Control Number on the WHITE proxy card or voting instruction form and have it handy when you access the telephone number or website indicated on your proxy card/voting instruction form.

 

   

Follow the simple prompts provided on the phone or website.
