Summary
Xcel Energy Inc. filed an 8-K report on May 7, 2002, announcing an extension of the expiration date for the NRG Energy, Inc. exchange offer. The offer, initially set to expire earlier, has been pushed back to midnight EDT on May 17, 2002. This extension is a procedural update, likely intended to allow more time for shareholders to consider the offer or for necessary regulatory approvals to be obtained. Investors should note that the company explicitly states there are no assurances that the exchange offer will be completed. This is due to several outstanding conditions, including but not limited to, SEC approval under the Public Utility Holding Company Act, a minimum tender of shares by public stockholders, and the absence of injunctions or litigation. The company's forward-looking statements are subject to significant uncertainties, and actual results could differ materially.
