On June 5, Constellation Energy Corp declined 3.02% in regular trading, trading at $256.65/share, with trading volume of $466 million.
On the news front, the stock continues to face selling pressure from a previously announced secondary public offering by existing shareholders. According to filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, selling shareholders launched an underwritten public offering of 11 million common shares priced at $281 per share, raising approximately $3.1 billion in total. The company itself will not receive any proceeds from the offering. Additionally, underwriters hold a 30-day overallotment option to purchase up to 1.35 million additional shares, further expanding potential supply overhang in the secondary market.
Since the offering was announced on June 1, the stock has dropped significantly from its pre-announcement levels, as the large-scale equity sale increases secondary market supply. The company plans to repurchase 2 million of the offered shares from underwriters. Constellation Energy is the largest carbon-free energy producer in the United States, with a generation fleet capable of powering approximately 16 million homes.
