What did AES (AES) director Inderpal S. Bhandari report in this Form 4?

Inderpal S. Bhandari reported an equity compensation grant of 12,111 stock units. Each unit is economically equivalent to one share of AES common stock and was granted at $0.00 per unit as part of director compensation under AES’s 2025 Equity and Incentive Compensation Plan.

How many AES (AES) stock units were granted and what is Bhandari’s new total?

Bhandari received 12,111 AES stock units in this transaction. After the grant, his direct holdings increased to 59,433 units. These units represent deferred equity compensation, each designed to mirror the value of one share of AES common stock for the director.

Are the AES (AES) units granted to Bhandari the same as common stock?

Each unit is the economic equivalent of one AES common share, but they are not ordinary shares yet. Instead, the units are bookkeeping entries that will later be settled in actual AES common stock under the terms of the 2025 Equity and Incentive Compensation Plan.

When will Inderpal S. Bhandari’s AES (AES) stock units be settled into common shares?

The units will be settled for AES common stock after Bhandari terminates his service on the Board. Settlement timing follows his director election form and the rules of The AES Corporation 2025 Equity and Incentive Compensation Plan governing deferred director compensation.

Was this AES (AES) Form 4 a market purchase or sale by the director?

No, this Form 4 reflects a grant or award acquisition, not a market trade. The 12,111 units were issued at $0.00 per unit as compensation, so there was no open-market buying or selling of AES shares associated with this specific transaction.

What plan governs the AES (AES) stock unit grant reported by Bhandari?

The grant is made under The AES Corporation 2025 Equity and Incentive Compensation Plan. This plan provides for director equity awards, where stock units economically mirror AES common shares and are later settled in stock based on each director’s individual election form.
