In the 10-Q report, Duke Energy highlights its strategic transactions in the third quarter of 2025. It entered into an investment agreement to receive $6 billion in exchange for a 19.7% indirect investment in Duke Energy Florida, and announced the sale of Piedmont’s Tennessee business to Spire Inc. for $2.48 billion. These transactions are expected to support Duke Energy’s expanded capital plan and replace certain originally planned long-term debt and common equity issuances through 2029.
The report also emphasizes the company's focus on building a smarter energy future.
