This 8-K filing officially establishes a new At-The-Market (ATM) equity distribution program, allowing Consolidated Edison to sell up to $2 billion of common shares over time. This follows a Dow Jones Newswires report earlier today announcing the program, and also comes shortly after the company's Q1 2026 earnings report yesterday which mentioned a separate $776 million stock offering. The new $2 billion ATM program represents a substantial potential capital raise, but also introduces significant potential dilution for existing shareholders. The inclusion of forward sale agreements provides flexibility in how shares are issued.
