WEC Energy Group, Inc. reported a routine insider transaction by a director. On 01/02/2026, the director acquired 1,603 shares of common stock at a stated price of $0, which appears consistent with plan-related or exempt share credits.
Following this transaction, the director beneficially owned 276,600 common shares directly and 4,106.948 shares indirectly through the company’s Employee Retirement Savings Plan (ERSP). The ERSP amount is based on a plan statement dated as of December 31, 2025 and includes shares acquired in transactions exempt from certain Section 16 reporting requirements.
WEC Energy Group expects its 2025 results to include a $150 million charge to increase reserves tied to Illinois regulatory matters, including unresolved Qualifying Infrastructure Plant and Uncollectible Expense Adjustment reconciliations with the Illinois Commerce Commission. After this charge, WEC’s 2025 earnings guidance on a GAAP basis is $4.83 to $4.93 per share. On an adjusted, non-GAAP basis that excludes the $0.34 per share charge, guidance remains $5.17 to $5.27 per share, with an expectation of reaching the upper end of that range, which management views as more reflective of ongoing operations.
WEC plans to discuss 2025 results on its year-end earnings call currently scheduled for February 5, 2026. Separately, subsidiaries The Peoples Gas Light and Coke Company and North Shore Gas Company have filed requests with the Illinois Commerce Commission to establish new rates starting in 2027, with additional details provided in investor presentation materials.

WEC Energy Group disclosed how it will measure 2026 incentive pay for its senior executives. Under the Short-Term Performance Plan, most named executive officers will have annual bonuses tied largely to financial goals based on earnings per share (75% weight) and cash flow (25% weight). Those awards can then be adjusted by up to 10% depending on results in customer satisfaction (5%), safety (2.5%), and supplier diversity and workforce development (2.5%) across all WEC Energy Group companies.
For executives focused on Wisconsin utility operations, 2026 bonuses will depend on earnings per share (25%), cash flow (25%), and aggregate net income from Wisconsin utilities (50%), with similar operational and social modifiers. For long‑term 2026 performance unit awards, payouts will be driven by total shareholder return versus a custom peer group (55%) and performance versus the weighted average authorized return on equity of all utility subsidiaries (45%), with a price‑to‑earnings ratio measure that can increase vesting by up to 25%, capped at 200% of target.

WEC Energy Group, Inc. entered into an underwriting agreement to issue and sell $600,000,000 aggregate principal amount of 5.625% Fixed‑to‑Fixed Reset Rate Junior Subordinated Notes due 2056. The notes are being offered in a registered transaction under a Form S‑3 shelf (Registration No. 333-281253).
Barclays Capital, BofA Securities, Citigroup, Morgan Stanley, U.S. Bancorp Investments, and Wells Fargo Securities are acting as representatives of the underwriters. The filing also includes the securities resolution under the company’s existing indenture and related legal opinions and consents. This transaction adds long-dated junior subordinated debt to the company’s capital structure, using a registered public offering format.
WEC Energy Group launched a preliminary prospectus supplement for a primary offering of Fixed-to-Fixed Reset Rate Junior Subordinated Notes due 2056. The notes pay a fixed rate until 2031, then reset every five years to the Five-Year Treasury Rate plus a spread, with a floor equal to the initial rate. Interest is paid semi-annually.
The company may defer interest for up to 20 consecutive semi-annual periods (up to 10 years); deferred amounts accrue and compound. During deferral, certain dividends, par‑or‑junior debt payments, and similar actions are restricted. The notes are unsecured and junior to Senior Indebtedness; Senior Indebtedness was approximately $6.3 billion as of September 30, 2025. The notes are not expected to be listed.
WEC intends to use net proceeds to repay short‑term debt and for general corporate purposes. Short‑term debt outstanding was $905.0 million at a weighted average 4.26% as of September 30, 2025. The notes may be redeemed at specified times at 100%, and at 102% upon certain rating agency methodology changes, or at 100% upon certain tax events.
WEC Energy Group entered an equity distribution agreement allowing it to offer and sell, from time to time, up to $3.0 billion of its common stock through designated sales agents or to them as principals. The program also permits forward sale agreements, including initially priced forwards and collared forwards, entered with affiliated forward purchasers under its effective Form S-3 shelf.
For forward transactions, WEC will not initially receive proceeds from sales of borrowed shares; it expects cash only upon future physical settlement at the applicable forward sale price, adjusted for commissions, interest factors and expected dividends. Collared forwards establish a floor and cap determined after an initial hedging period, with settlement payments reflecting those terms. Sales agents and forward sellers may receive commissions of up to 1.00% of sale prices. Actual sales will occur at WEC’s discretion based on market conditions, trading price, capital needs and funding determinations.
