-------------------------------------
According to Dun & Bradstreet?s Annual Report Form 10-K, Experian, Equifax
and infoUSA, Inc. are their top competitors.
Equifax, Inc. and Experian Information Solutions, Inc. (?Experian?)
?In the U.S., we are a market leader in our Risk Management Solutions
business in terms of market share and revenue, including revenue from
sales of third-party business credit information. We compete with our
customers? own internal business practices by continually developing
more efficient alternatives to our customers risk management processes
in order to capture more of their internal spend. We also directly
compete with a broad range of companies, including consumer credit
companies such as Equifax, Inc. and Experian Information Solutions,
Inc. (?Experian?), which have traditionally offered primarily consumer
information services, but now offer products that combine consumer
information with business information as a tool to help customers make
credit decisions with respect to small businesses.?
Experian and infoUSA, Inc.
?We also compete in the U.S. with a broad range of companies offering
solutions similar to our Sales & Marketing Solutions and Supply
Management Solutions as well as our customers? own purchasing
departments. In our Sales & Marketing Solutions business, our direct
competitors include companies such as Experian and infoUSA, Inc.
(?infoUSA?). In our Supply Management Solutions business, we directly
compete with consulting firms, specialty data providers and specialty
software companies.?
infoUSA, Yahoo! Finance and CBS MarketWatch.
?In our E-Business Solutions, Hoover?s competition varies based on the
size of the customer and the level of spending available for services
such as Hoover?s Online. On the high end of product pricing, Hoover?s
Pro, Hoover?s Pro Plus and Hoover?s Pro Premium products compete with
other business information providers such as infoUSA. On the lower end
of product pricing, our Hoover?s Lite solution mainly competes with
advertising-supported websites and other free or low-priced
information sources, such as Yahoo! Finance and CBS MarketWatch.?
Cerved in Italy, Experian in the United Kingdom (?UK?)
?Outside the U.S., the competitive environment varies by country, and
in some countries we are a market leader. For example, in Europe, our
direct competition is primarily local, such as Cerved in Italy and
Experian in the United Kingdom (?UK?). In addition, common links exist
among some of these competitors through their membership in European
information network alliances, such as BIGNet (Experian), and we
believe that competitors may be pursuing the establishment of their
own pan-European network through direct investment, which could
ultimately be positioned by them as an alternative to our D&B
Worldwide Network. However, we believe we offer superior solutions
when compared to these networks because of our DUNSRight quality
process. In addition, the Sales & Marketing Solutions landscape is
both localized and fragmented throughout Europe, where numerous local
players of varying size compete for business.?
