(PPL)

See Note 2 in PPL's 2020 Form 10-K for a discussion of reportable segments and related information.

On March 17, 2021, PPL WPD Limited entered into a share purchase agreement to sell PPL's U.K. utility business, which substantially represents PPL's U.K. Regulated segment. As a result of this strategic shift in the operations of the business, PPL will no longer provide segment information for the U.K. Regulated segment. See Note 9 for additional information.
