Section 7 - Regulation FD

Item 7.01 Regulation FD Disclosure

In recent weeks, the continued spread of the novel Coronavirus ("COVID-19") has led to global economic disruption and volatility in financial markets. PPL Corporation ("PPL") and its subsidiaries are taking steps to mitigate the potential risks to our customers, suppliers and employees posed by the spread of COVID-19. We have implemented our company-wide pandemic plan, which guides the emergency response, business continuity and precautionary measures we are taking to continue to provide uninterrupted service to our customers and to support our operational needs, including those of a significant remote workforce. We continue to monitor developments affecting both our workforce and our customers, and we will take additional precautions that we determine are necessary in order to mitigate the impacts.

This is a rapidly evolving situation that could lead to extended disruption of economic activity in our markets, which could adversely affect our business. Given the uncertain scope and duration of the COVID-19 outbreak and its potential effects on our business, we currently cannot predict if there will be a material impact to our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

As provided in General Instruction B.2 of Form 8-K, the information contained in this Item 7.01 of this Form 8-K shall not be deemed to be "filed" for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, nor shall any such information be deemed to be incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, except as shall be expressly set forth by specific reference in such a filing.

Section 8 - Other Events

Item 8.01. Other Events

As a result of the global outbreak of COVID-19, PPL is updating its risk factor disclosure contained in its Securities and Exchange Commission filings as follows:

The outbreak of the Coronavirus (COVID-19) and resultant impact on business and economic conditions could negatively affect our business.
The outbreak of COVID-19 has led to global economic disruption and volatility in the financial markets. The continued spread of COVID-19 and efforts to contain the virus, such as quarantines, reduced operations or extended closures of businesses, governmental agencies and other institutions, could cause further economic disruption, which could adversely affect customer demand, impact our employees, cause us to experience an increase in certain costs, delayed payments or uncollectable accounts or cause other unpredictable events, each of which could adversely affect our business, results of operations or financial condition.
