Beginning in December 2021, media outlets, including the Orlando Sentinel and Miami Herald, began reporting that NEE's primary subsidiary, Florida Power and Light Co. ("FPL"), and its political consulting firm, Matrix LLC, had orchestrated a range of improper political expenditures including potential violations of state and federal campaign finance laws.  After more than a year of blanket denials, FPL's President and Chief Executive Officer Eric Silagy abruptly resigned on January 25, 2023.  That same day, NEE filed a Form 8-K with the SEC which specifically acknowledged that FPL faced legal and reputational risks because of the allegations that FPL executives had orchestrated political misconduct.  On this news, NEE's stock price fell $7.31 per share, or approximately 8.7%.

Then, on January 31, 2023, NEE acknowledged to Bank of America analysts that Silagy's severance package included a unique claw back provision in case the Company needed to be compensated by Silagy for costs associated with "any legal wrongdoing"—tacitly acknowledging the link between Silagy's conduct and the legal and reputational risk described in the January 25th 8-K.
