Summary
Dominion Energy, Inc. (D) filed an 8-K on December 17, 2024, announcing the formal removal of Article IIIB from its articles of incorporation. This amendment is a direct consequence of the company's redemption of all outstanding shares of its 4.65% Series B Fixed-Rate Reset Cumulative Redeemable Perpetual Preferred Stock (Series B Preferred Stock). The redemption was effective as of December 15, 2024, and the subsequent amendment reflects the completion of this capital structure change.

This action simplifies the company's capital structure by eliminating a specific class of preferred stock.
