This offering involved selling shareholders selling 11,000,000 shares of common stock, with an option for underwriters to purchase an additional 1,350,000 shares. Importantly, CEG itself did not sell any shares and received no proceeds from this primary offering. However, in conjunction with the offering, CEG repurchased 2,000,000 shares of its common stock from the underwriters for approximately $558.0 milliona, funded by its existing share repurchase program.
This transaction signifies a strategic move by CEG to manage its share count and potentially return capital to shareholders through buybacks, rather than directly raising capital in this instance.
