Duke Energy Corp. director Idalene F. Kesner reported a change in her beneficial ownership of Duke Energy derivative securities tied to the company’s common stock. The Form 4 relates to a transaction dated July 2, 2026, and was signed on her behalf by attorney-in-fact David S. Maltz on July 6, 2026. The filing concerns Director Savings Plan Restricted Stock Units. These RSUs are derivative securities that convert into Duke Energy common stock on a one-for-one basis. According to the explanatory notes, the units are generally payable when Kesner’s service with the company terminates, and they do not have an applicable expiration date. The filing also includes a corrective ownership note: the amount reported as beneficially owned after the reported transaction includes Director Savings Plan RSUs that had been acquired and reported on Kesner’s prior Form 4 but were inadvertently omitted from the aggregate holdings total in that earlier filing. In other words, part of the update appears to reconcile her post-transaction derivative-security ownership total rather than reflect only a new market transaction. The provided filing text does not show the transaction code, number of RSUs involved, transaction price, or the exact number of derivative securities beneficially owned after the transaction. It also does not describe an open-market sale or purchase of Duke Energy common stock. The reported action is therefore best understood as an insider beneficial-ownership update involving deferred director RSUs, including a correction to previously reported aggregate holdings.
