Monitor the pace of ATM sales in future 10-Q filings to gauge dilution. The forward sale structure defers proceeds but creates potential for future equity issuance. The capital raise is a routine utility financing action; the stock's reaction will likely depend on the pace of execution and use of proceeds for capex vs. debt repayment.
