Item 5. MARKET FOR REGISTRANT’S COMMON EQUITY, RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS AND ISSUER PURCHASES OF EQUITY SECURITIES

Our common stock is listed on the New York Stock Exchange, Inc. under the trading symbol “PEG.” As of February 19, 2021, there were 54,220 registered holders.

The following graph shows a comparison of the five-year cumulative return assuming $100 invested on December 31, 2015 in our common stock and the subsequent reinvestment of quarterly dividends, the S&P Composite Stock Price Index, the Dow Jones Utilities Index and the S&P Electric Utilities Index.

On February 16, 2021, our Board of Directors approved a $0.51 per share common stock dividend for the first quarter of 2021. This reflects an indicative annual dividend rate of $2.04 per share. We expect to continue to pay cash dividends on our common stock; however, the declaration and payment of future dividends to holders of our common stock will be at the discretion of the Board of Directors and will depend upon many factors, including our financial condition, earnings, capital requirements of our businesses, alternate investment opportunities, legal requirements, regulatory constraints, industry practice and other factors that the Board of Directors deems relevant.

In December 2020, we entered into a share repurchase plan that complies with Rule 10b5-1 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, solely with respect to the repurchase of shares to satisfy obligations under equity compensation awards that are expected to be issued in 2021 and the repurchase of shares to satisfy purchases by employees under the Employee Stock Purchase Plan during 2021. There were no common share repurchases in the open market during the fourth quarter of 2020.

The following table indicates the securities authorized for issuance under equity compensation plans as of December 31, 2020:

Table of Contents

The number of shares available for future issuance includes amounts remaining under our Amended and Restated 2004 Long-Term Incentive Plan (LTIP), 2007 Equity Compensation Plan for Outside Directors and Employee Stock Purchase Plan and reflect a reduction for non-vested restricted stock units and performance share units (PSUs) (assumed at target payout), including accrued dividend equivalent units. The number of shares available for future issuance may be increased or decreased depending on actual payouts for the PSUs based on achievement of targets and is also increased by the number of shares that are withheld to satisfy tax withholding obligations relating to any plan awards as well as shares subject to awards that are forfeited, canceled or otherwise terminated without the issuance of shares. For additional discussion of specific plans concerning equity-based compensation, see Item 8. Note 20. Stock Based Compensation.
