PSEG
, /PRNewswire/ -- Public Service Enterprise Group (NYSE: PEG) today announced that it has received notice of an unsolicited mini-tender offer by TRC Capital Investment Corporation of Ontario, Canada, to purchase up to 1.5 million shares of PSEG common stock at a price of $80.60 per share. TRC Capital Investment's offer price of $80.60 per share is approximately 4.51% lower than the $84.41 closing share price of PSEG's common stock on July 21, 2025, the last trading day prior to the date of the offer, and approximately 9.4% lower than the $88.97 closing share price on August 1, 2025. The offer is for approximately 0.3% of the shares of PSEG common stock outstanding as of the offer date. PSEG is not associated in any way with TRC Capital Investment or its unsolicited mini-tender offer. PSEG recommends that shareholders do not tender their shares in response to TRC Capital Investment's offer because the offer is at a price below the market price for PSEG's shares as of the date of the offer and as of August 1, 2025, and subject to numerous conditions. Shareholders who have already tendered their shares may withdraw them at any time prior to the expiration of the offer, in accordance with the terms of TRC Capital Investment's offer. The offer is currently scheduled to expire at 12:00 a.m. Eastern Time on August 20, 2025. TRC Capital Investment may extend the offering period at its discretion. TRC Capital Investment has made many similar mini-tender offers for shares of other companies. Mini-tender offers seek to acquire less than 5 percent of a company's shares outstanding, thereby avoiding many disclosure and procedural requirements of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) that would otherwise apply. As a result, mini-tender offers do not provide investors with the same level of protections as provided for larger tender offers under U.S. securities laws. The SEC has cautioned investors that some bidders making mini-tender offers at below-market prices are "hoping that they will catch investors off guard if the investors do not compare the offer price to the current market price." More on the SEC's guidance to investors on mini-tender offers is available at www.sec.gov/investor/pubs/minitend.htm [sec.gov]. PSEG urges investors to obtain current market quotations for their shares, to consult with their broker or financial advisor, and to exercise caution with respect to TRC Capital Investment's offer.  PSEG encourages brokers and dealers, as well as other market participants, to review the SEC's letter regarding broker-dealer mini-tender offer dissemination and disclosure at www.sec.gov/divisions/marketreg/minitenders/sia072401.htm [sec.gov].
