Pay vs Performance Disclosure, Table

PAY VERSUS PERFORMANCE

As required by Item 402(v) of Regulation S-K, we are providing the following information on the relationship between Compensation Actually Paid (CAP) and PPL’s performance for our NEOs, including our principal executive officer. CAP is defined by the SEC and is not used by the People and Compensation Committee in its pay-for-performance assessments. See the Compensation Discussion and Analysis (CD&A) section for a discussion of PPL’s compensation philosophy, practices and programs.

PPL’s executive compensation programs are structured to promote a strong pay for performance culture. As noted in the CD&A, 88% of the CEO’s 2025 target compensation was “at-risk” and 73% was performance based.

Based on our approach to align executive pay closely with performance, PPL’s CAP is directionally aligned with PPL’s Corporate EPS, total shareowner return (TSR), and earnings growth (EG). For example, the CEO 2025 CAP is greater than 2025 Summary Compensation Table (SCT) disclosure, driven by year-over-year stock appreciation and corresponding increase in payout probabilities for outstanding long-term incentive awards. See the table below for more details followed by a description of the relationship between CAP and select performance metrics.

In calculating CAP, PPL calculated the fair value (or change in fair value) of outstanding, vested and forfeited equity awards in accordance with SEC rules for CAP and computed in a manner consistent with the methodology for financial reporting purposes consistent with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. For restricted stock units, CAP values are based on a closing price on applicable year-end date(s) or, in the case of vesting dates, the actual vesting price. For performance units (excluding TSR Awards), CAP values are based on the same valuation methodology as restricted stock unit awards above except year-end values are multiplied times the probability of achievement as of each such date. For TSR-based performance units, the fair value is calculated by a Monte Carlo simulation model that considers a correlation coefficient, expected stock volatility and expected life as of the applicable year-end date(s). For more information about the assumptions used to value awards on their grant date, see the “Grants of Plan-Based Awards During 2025” table on page 63. For more information about the reported value for future achievement of outstanding performance-based awards, see the “Outstanding Equity Awards at Fiscal Year End 2025” table on page 64.
