General Information
Business:

(Note: Genworth Financial revived its Enact Holdings spin-off’s IPO in early August with a new underwriting lineup and filed terms in an S-1/A filing dated Sept. 13, 2021. Genworth Financial is the selling stockholder; Genworth is offering all of the 13.31 million shares in the IPO. Enact Holdings will not receive any of the IPO proceeds. Previously: Genworth Financial announced on Thursday, May 13, 2021, that it had postponed the IPO of Enact Holdings, Inc., due to “the recent significant trading volatility in the mortgage insurance (MI) sector,” according to a news release published at 6:30 a.m. EDT. J.P Morgan/ Goldman Sachs/ BofA Securities/ Credit Suisse were the joint book-runners on the deal postponed in May.)
