On March 25, 2026, Entergy Corporation disclosed in an 8-K filing that Reginald T. Jackson, the Senior Vice President and Chief Accounting Officer, will retire effective May 31, 2026. This decision is part of a planned leadership transition within the company. Following his retirement, Patrick J. Stack, currently serving as Corporate Controller of Entergy Services, LLC, will be appointed to succeed Jackson in the role. Stack has been with Entergy since March 2022 and previously held the position of Controller for Utility Operations Accounting from January 2019 to March 2022. As the new Senior Vice President and Chief Accounting Officer, Stack will receive an annual base salary of $356,000, along with eligibility for an annual cash bonus targeted at 45% of his base salary. He will also participate in the company's incentive programs, which include performance units, restricted stock, and stock options. The transition is expected to be smooth, with no reported conflicts of interest or family relationships affecting the appointment. This leadership change is viewed as a routine administrative update rather than a significant shift in company strategy or operations.
