On May 9, 2025, CenterPoint Energy, Inc. (the “Company”) issued press releases announcing the (A) early tender results and (B) pricing, respectively, of the Tender Offers (as defined below). Copies of the press releases are furnished as Exhibit 99.1 and Exhibit 99.2 hereto and are incorporated herein by reference.

The information furnished in Item 7.01, Exhibit 99.1 and Exhibit 99.2 is not deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), is not subject to the liabilities of that section and is not deemed incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act.

 

On May 9, 2025, the Company announced the early tender results and pricing of its previously announced cash tender offers (each, a “Tender Offer” and collectively, the “Tender Offers”) to purchase (i) up to $600,000,000 aggregate purchase price (excluding accrued and unpaid interest) (the “CenterPoint Energy Notes Maximum Amount”) of its 5.25% Senior Notes due 2026, 3.70% Senior Notes due 2049, 4.25% Senior Notes due 2028, 5.40% Senior Notes due 2029, 2.95% Senior Notes due 2030 and 2.65% Senior Notes due 2031 (collectively, the “CenterPoint Energy Notes”) and (ii) up to $400,000,000 aggregate purchase price (excluding accrued and unpaid interest) (the “CERC Notes Maximum Amount”) of the 4.10% Senior Notes due 2047, 5.40% Senior Notes due 2033, 5.25% Senior Notes due 2028, 5.40% Senior Notes due 2034 and 4.40% Senior Notes due 2032 (collectively, the “CERC Notes” and, together with the CenterPoint Energy Notes, the “Notes”) issued by its wholly-owned subsidiary, CenterPoint Energy Resources Corp. The sum of the CenterPoint Energy Notes Maximum Amount and the CERC Notes Maximum Amount is $1,000,000,000 (the “Aggregate Maximum Amount”).

Because the Company expects to accept for purchase the Aggregate Maximum Amount of Notes, no additional Notes will be purchased pursuant to the Tender Offers after May 13, 2025, the early settlement date for such Notes validly tendered and accepted for purchase by the Company.

The Tender Offers are made upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Offer to Purchase dated April 25, 2025.
