WILDER C JOHN 4

What Happened

• Director John Wilder received a grant of 405 derivative shares (reported as an award/acquisition) on July 1, 2026. The transaction is recorded at $0.00 per share (total reported value $0) and is classified as a derivative award rather than an open-market purchase.

Key Details

• Transaction date: 2026-07-01; transaction code: A (award/grant).
• Price: $0.00 per share; total reported value: $0.
• Shares owned after transaction: not explicitly stated in this filing.
• Footnotes of note:
  • F2/F3: These are director deferred share units — each unit represents the right to receive one Evergy share (plus any reinvested dividends) and units are converted to stock and distributed after the director leaves the Board per the director’s elections.
  • F1: Separately notes certain shares are held by an affiliated fund structure (BEP Special Situations V LLC); the reporting person disclaims beneficial ownership except to the extent of any pecuniary interest.
  • F4: Notes 243 shares were inadvertently omitted in a prior filing (correction to earlier reported holdings).
• Filing timeliness: Reported on 2026-07-01 (Period of Report 2026-07-01), so appears timely.

Context

• This was a compensation award of deferred share units (a common form of director pay), not an open-market buy or sale. Deferred units convert to stock later and do not represent an immediate purchase or sale; they therefore should not be read as a direct trading signal.
