In March 2026, Fortis redeemed US$115 million of its U.S. dollar-denominated unsecured senior notes with original maturities ranging from 2029 to 2044, and in August 2026 Fortis will redeem US$75 million of its U.S. dollar-denominated unsecured senior notes with an original maturity in 2040.

In December 2024, Fortis filed a short-form base shelf prospectus with a 25-month life under which it may issue common or preference shares, subscription receipts, or debt securities in an aggregate principal amount of up to $2.0 billion. Fortis re-established the at-the-market equity program ("ATM Program") pursuant to the short-form base shelf prospectus, which allows the Corporation to issue up to $500 million of common shares from treasury to the public from time to time, at the Corporation's discretion, effective until January 10, 2027. As at June 30, 2026, $500 million remained available under the ATM Program and $1.5 billion remained available under the short-form base shelf prospectus.
