Item 7.01 Regulation FD Disclosure.
On December 2, 2025, TXNM Energy, Inc. (the “Company”) commenced marketing for a potential offering of fixed-to-fixed reset rate junior subordinated notes (the “Notes”) in a private offering (1) to persons reasonably believed to be qualified institutional buyers pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and (2) outside the United States to non-U.S. persons in accordance with Regulation S under the Securities Act (the “Junior Subordinated Notes Offering”).
On December 2, 2025, the Company provided the following information in a preliminary offering memorandum related to the Junior Subordinated Notes Offering:
The Company and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Public Service Company of New Mexico (“PNM”), are evaluating a potential pension risk transfer transaction (the “Pension Transfer”) that would involve the purchase of one or more group annuity contracts from an insurance company to assume a portion of the obligations under the PNM Resources, Inc. Employees’ Retirement Plan (the “Plan”) related to PNM’s previously disposed of gas distribution business. If completed, the Pension Transfer would transfer up to $100 million of the Plan’s pension obligations, together with a corresponding amount of Plan assets for certain retirees and beneficiaries. Any annuity contract would be purchased using assets held in the Plan’s trust and PNM does not currently anticipate making any additional cash contributions to the Plan in connection with the Pension Transfer. Following any such annuity purchase, an insurer would be responsible for making future benefit payments to the covered retirees and beneficiaries in accordance with the terms of the annuity contract. Assuming completion of the Pension Transfer, the Company and PNM expect to incur a non-cash charge to net income of approximately $65 million, or $50 million on an after-tax basis. There can be no assurance the Pension Transfer will be completed or as to the terms or timing of any transaction.
There is no guarantee that the Junior Subordinated Notes Offering will be completed or as to the terms or timing of any transaction. Any Junior Subordinated Notes Offering will be subject to certain conditions and other terms to be set forth in an applicable definitive agreement. The Notes will not be registered under the Securities Act and may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an applicable exemption from registration requirements and applicable state laws. This Current Report on Form 8-K does not constitute an offer to sell nor a solicitation of an offer to purchase the Notes or any other securities, and shall not constitute an offer, solicitation or sale in any state or jurisdiction in which such an offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful.
