MGE Energy prices 3.3 million share offering at $72.9094 per share, with forward sale deal
MGE Energy entered an underwriting agreement on May 6, 2026 for a public offering of 3,300,331 shares of common stock, of which the company itself sold 990,099 shares and the rest were borrowed from third parties and sold by forward sellers. The company also entered forward sale agreements covering 2,310,232 shares, with settlement no later than January 8, 2028, at an initial forward sale price of $72.9094 per share. The filing says the company expects no dilution to earnings per share except when the average market price is above the adjusted forward sale price, and that physical or net share settlement would dilute earnings per share.
