Shelf Registration, At-the-Market Equity Sales Program and Equity Issuances
On June 29, 2021, we filed a shelf registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) that allows us to issue up to $5.0 billion in common stock and/or debt securities, which expires June 29, 2024. At September 30, 2022, approximately $2.2 billion of securities remained available for issuance under the shelf registration statement. Following the completion of the $800 million senior unsecured notes offering on October 3, 2022 (see Note 7 to the consolidated financial statements), approximately $1.4 billion of securities remained available for issuance under the shelf registration statement.
On March 23, 2022, we filed a prospectus supplement under the shelf registration statement relating to an at-the-market (ATM) equity sales program under which we may issue and sell shares of our common stock up to an aggregate offering price of $1.0 billion through June 29, 2024 (including shares of common stock that may be sold pursuant to forward sale agreements entered into concurrently with the ATM equity sales program). This ATM equity sales program replaced our previous ATM equity sales program, filed on June 29, 2021, which was exhausted during our second fiscal quarter.
During the year ended September 30, 2022, we executed forward sales under our ATM equity sales programs with various forward sellers who borrowed and sold 11,862,319 shares of our common stock at an aggregate price of $1.3 billion. During the year ended September 30, 2022, we also settled forward sale agreements with respect to 7,907,883 shares that had been borrowed and sold by various forward sellers under the ATM program for net proceeds of $776.8 million. As of September 30, 2022, $481.7 million of equity was available for issuance under our existing ATM program. Additionally, we had $776.6 million in available proceeds from outstanding forward sale agreements, as detailed below.

Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Loss)
We record deferred gains (losses) in accumulated other comprehensive income (AOCI) related to available-for-sale debt securities and interest rate agreement cash flow hedges. Deferred gains (losses) for our available-for-sale debt securities are recognized in earnings upon settlement, while deferred gains (losses) related to our interest rate agreement cash flow hedges are recognized in earnings as a component of interest charges, as they are amortized. The following tables provide the components of our accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) balances, net of the related tax effects allocated to each component of other comprehensive income (loss).
