Eversource Energ SEC Filings

Eversource Energy is soliciting shareholder votes for its 2026 annual meeting, where investors will elect ten trustees, cast an advisory vote on executive pay, ratify Deloitte & Touche as auditor, and consider a proposal for an independent board chair.

The company highlights 2025 financial strength, including a 22.7 percent total shareholder return, earnings per share of $4.56 (non‑GAAP $4.76, exceeding its goal), and a dividend raised 5.2 percent to $3.01 per share. Eversource invested more than $4 billion in its core utility businesses, advanced major grid and clean energy projects such as the $1.8 billion Greater Cambridge Energy Program, and progressed recovery of nearly $2.0 billion in deferred storm costs.

Governance themes include a largely independent board (nine of ten nominees), extensive shareholder engagement, and revisions to incentive design after lower 2025 Say‑on‑Pay support, including more formulaic annual metrics and capping performance share payouts if absolute three‑year TSR is negative. The proxy also emphasizes ESG leadership, a $900 million energy efficiency plan, about $54.1 million in 2025 community giving, and new climate commitments targeting a 45 percent reduction in Scopes 1–2 emissions by 2035 and net zero across key scopes by 2050.

The Series A notes bear interest initially at 6.100% (resetting on August 15, 2031 to a 5‑year U.S. Treasury rate plus 2.521%, floored at 6.100%); the Series B notes bear interest initially at 6.350% (resetting on August 15, 2036 to a 5‑year U.S. Treasury rate plus 2.325%, floored at 6.350%). The company may defer interest on either series for up to 10 consecutive years per deferral period. Net proceeds are estimated at approximately $1.48 billion, intended to repay short‑term debt and upcoming senior notes due in May and August 2026, and for general corporate purposes. The notes are junior subordinated obligations, will be unsecured, not listed, and are more junior than the company’s outstanding priority indebtedness.
