Dun & Bradstreet has agreed to be acquired by private-equity firm Clearlake Capital for $4.1 billion, the data and analytics provider said on Monday, putting an end to its second stint as a public company after its stock-market listing more than four years ago.

Shares of the 184-year-old company rose about 3%. Its shares are down nearly 30% this year and about 60% since going public in 2020, making it an attractive target for Clearlake.

Analysts have also pointed to its healthy free cash flow and potential for growth in revenue and margins as some of the factors that made it ripe for a takeover.
