Pay vs Performance Disclosure [Table] |  |  |
Pay vs Performance [Table Text Block] | Pay Versus Performance As required by new pay versus performance (“PVP”) rules adopted by the SEC in 2022 and in effect for the first time for this Proxy Statement, the following Pay Versus Performance table (“PVP Table”) provides SEC-required information about compensation for 2022 for this Proxy Statement’s named executive officers, as well as our named executive officers from our 2022 and 2021 Proxy Statements (each of 2020, 2021 and 2022, a “Covered Year”). The PVP Table also provides information about the results for certain measures of financial performance during those same Covered Years. In reviewing this information, there are a few important things we believe you should consider:
◾ |  | The information in columns (b) and (d) of the PVP Table comes directly from this year’s Summary Compensation Table (or prior years’ Summary Compensation Tables), without adjustment;
◾ |  | As required by the SEC’s PVP rules, we describe the information in columns (c) and (e) of the PVP Table as “compensation actually paid” (or “CAP”) to the applicable PVP NEOs. However, these CAP amounts may not necessarily reflect the final compensation that our NEOs actually earned or walked away with for their service in the Covered Years, respectively. As a result, we urge investors to use caution when evaluating CAP amounts; and
◾ |  | As required by the SEC’s PVP rules, we provide information in the PVP Table below about our cumulative absolute total shareholder return (“TSR”) results, cumulative TSR results for a peer group of companies identified in the PVP Table (“EEI TSR”), and our U.S. GAAP net income results (the “External Measures”) during the Covered Years. The peer group used for purposes of this PVP Table disclosure is substantially different than the comparator companies against which we evaluate relative TSR performance for our named executive officers for purposes of our performance-adjusted RSU awards, as described above in our Compensation Discussion and Analysis. As a result, we did not necessarily design our NEO compensation to move in tandem with improving, declining or steady achievement in these External Measures.
Due to the use and weighting of the Operating Earnings performance measure in our annual cash incentive compensation plan for 2022, we have determined that, pursuant to the SEC’s PVP rules, Operating Earnings should be designated as the “Company-Selected Measure” to be included in the far right column of the PVP Table below because we believe it is the most important financial measure that demonstrates how we sought to link executive pay to performance for 2022.

(3) For each Covered Year, our absolute total shareholder return was calculated as the yearly percentage change in our cumulative total shareholder return on our common stock, measured as the quotient of (a) the sum of (i) the cumulative amount of dividends for a period beginning with our closing price on NYSE on December 31, 2019 ($48.60 per share) through and including the last day of the Covered Year (each one-year, two-year and three-year periods, a “Measurement Period”), assuming dividend reinvestment, plus (ii) the difference between our closing stock price at the end versus the beginning of the Measurement Period ($41.94 per share for December 31, 2022, $41.59 per share for December 31, 2021 and $30.61 per share for December 31, 2020), divided by (b) our closing share price at the beginning of the Measurement Period ($48.60 per share). Each of these yearly percentage changes was then applied to a deemed fixed investment of $100 at the beginning of the Measurement Period to produce the Covered Year-end values of such investment as of the end of 2022, 2021 and 2020, as applicable. Because Covered Years are presented in the table in reverse chronical order (from top to bottom), the table should be read from bottom to top for purposes of understanding cumulative returns over time. (4) For purposes of this pay versus performance disclosure, our peer group is EEI’s Index of Investor-Owned Electric Utility Companies (the “Peer Group”). For each Covered Year, our peer group cumulative total shareholder return was calculated based on a deemed fixed investment of $100 through the Measurement Period, assuming dividend reinvestment for the entities in the Peer Group (on a weighted basis depending on the respective entity’s stock market capitalization at the beginning of the Measurement Period). (5) For 2020, Operating Earnings (for each Covered Year, a non-GAAP financial performance measure) is disclosed in millions and is calculated using the aggregate GAAP earnings adjusted for special items that are consistent with the Company’s external operating earnings (for each Covered Year, another non-GAAP financial performance measure) reporting. Results for 2020 exclude the following: (i) the impacts associated with restructuring the business or other strategic decisions including the associated tax impacts, (ii) non-deferred major storm O&M expenses above or below the budgeted amount of $38 million, and (iii) the impacts of legal reserves or related expenses. External segment reporting is consistent with the internal financial reports to regularly assess performance of the business and allocate resources. (6) For 2021, Operating Earnings is disclosed in millions and is calculated using the aggregate GAAP earnings adjusted for special items that are consistent with the Company’s external operating earnings reporting. Results for 2021 exclude the following: (i) the impacts of O&M costs for storms that are considered major events, such as named storms (tropical storms, hurricanes, and winter storms) with total costs of $20 million or higher (except that all other storm costs, including all capital costs for storms, will not be excluded), (ii) the impacts of unforeseen legislative or regulatory changes (i.e., tax reform, SEC/DOJ penalties and fines as a result of the ongoing investigations) or other strategic decisions that are approved by the Finance and Compensation Committees including but not limited to accelerated O&M spending and variances to budget around interest costs under the Company’s liquidity management strategy. (7) For 2022, Operating Earnings is disclosed in millions and is calculated using the aggregate GAAP earnings adjusted for special items that are consistent with the Company’s external operating earnings reporting. Results for 2022 will include the following adjustments: the impacts of unforeseen accounting, legislative or regulatory changes will be included as adjustments. Other strategic decisions may also apply if they are approved in advance by the finance and compensation committees, including but not limited to accelerated O&M spending. |  |
