| ![](lhubb2026x14x2.jpg) | &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Align the interests of our executives and our shareholders by linking executive pay to Company performance. |

[Back to Contents](#toc)

### Short and Long-Term Incentives

#### **Short** - **Term Incentive ("STI") Design** 
The 2025 short-term incentive awards for the NEOs (including our CEO) were based 80% on Hubbell's financial performance and 20% on their individual contributions toward achievement of Hubbell's strategic objectives. This design prioritizes and appropriately rewards performance on critical metrics including talent development, acquisitions, innovation, footprint optimization and customer satisfaction.

![](lhubb2026x18x1.jpg)

*<sup>(1)</sup>* *Adjusted earnings per share and free cash flow are non-GAAP financial measures. A reconciliation to the comparable GAAP financial measures can be found in Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025, filed with the SEC on February 12, 2026.*

#### **Long** - **Term Incentive ("LTI") Design** 
The design of our long-term incentive award program, shown below, reflects a strong performance-based orientation.

![](lhubb2026x18x2.jpg)

#### **Performance Share Metrics** 
Since 2022, performance share grants have been based on the three metrics described below.

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
| **METRIC** | **2025 Weighting** |  |
| **Relative Sales Growth** | **34%** | Drives growth initiatives, including organic growth, new product development, innovation, and acquisition performance. |
| **Adjusted Operating Profit Margin<sup>(1)</sup>** | **33%** | Focuses NEOs on margin expansion and productivity while they execute operational objectives, including footprint optimization and product rationalization. |
| **Relative TSR** | **33%** | Ensures pay is aligned with shareholder interests. |

---

*<sup>(1)</sup>* *Adjusted operating profit margin is a non-GAAP financial measure. A reconciliation to the comparable GAAP financial measure can be found in Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025, filed with the SEC on February 12, 2026.*

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**Our compensation program is designed around pay for performance and informed by our shareholder engagement.**

## **Shareholder Engagement** 
The Company regularly engages with shareholders over the course of the year on topics such as financial performance, compensation, corporate governance, human capital management and sustainability. We are committed to engaging with our shareholders and to reviewing and applying the feedback we receive. Our robust program of shareholder outreach focuses on shareholders' perspectives on our compensation programs and our pay for performance philosophy.

In the fourth quarter of 2025, members of our senior management team engaged in a targeted outreach with Hubbell's top twenty-five shareholders representing almost 60% of Hubbell's outstanding common stock. These conversations, which were led by a cross-functional group of Hubbell's senior leaders, helped inform the Compensation Committee's review of the executive compensation programs and confirmed shareholders' overall support of our compensation philosophy, design, and programs and corporate governance practices.

In 2025, consistent with our commitment to implementing best corporate governance practices and in response to shareholder feedback, the Company changed its voting standard in uncontested director elections from a plurality vote standard to a majority vote standard. This change was approved by the Company's shareholders at the 2025 Annual Shareholders Meeting on May 6, 2025. The Company revised its Certificate of Incorporation, Bylaws, and Corporate Governance Guidelines to reflect such changes as well.

2026 PROXY STATEMENT I **13**

[Back to Contents](#toc)

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; **Proposal 1** Election of Directors<br>

The Board has fixed the number of Directors to be elected by the shareholders at the 2026 Annual Meeting at 11.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**Each Director nominee has the appropriate qualifications and experience for membership on the Board of Directors.**

## **Director Qualifications and Experience** 
Each year, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee ("NCGC") regularly evaluates the characteristics, skills, and experience that will enable the Board and its individual members to properly oversee the interests of Hubbell and its shareholders.

The NCGC recommends candidates for Board membership using the selection criteria outlined in Hubbell's Corporate Governance Guidelines (the "Guidelines") and other factors it deems necessary. Candidates are evaluated on the basis of their individual qualifications and experience and in the context of the Board as a whole. We strive to assemble a Board with diverse experiences and expertise that can best facilitate the success of the business and represent shareholder interests through the exercise of sound judgment.

Below is a list of certain of the qualifications and experience the NCGC seeks in recommending candidates for nomination to the Board:

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| ![](lhubb2026x15x4.jpg) | Ability to make independent analytical inquiries |
| ![](lhubb2026x15x4.jpg) | Marketing, finance, operations, manufacturing, or other relevant public company experience |
| ![](lhubb2026x15x4.jpg) | Financial literacy |
| ![](lhubb2026x15x4.jpg) | Professional background and leadership experience |
| ![](lhubb2026x15x4.jpg) | Corporate governance experience |
| ![](lhubb2026x15x4.jpg) | Experience as a current or former public company officer |
| ![](lhubb2026x15x4.jpg) | Experience in Hubbell's industry |
| ![](lhubb2026x15x4.jpg) | Public company board service |
| ![](lhubb2026x15x4.jpg) | Academic expertise in areas of Hubbell's operations |
| ![](lhubb2026x15x4.jpg) | Cybersecurity experience |

---

In determining whether to recommend a current Director for re-election, the NCGC also will consider past attendance at meetings, service on other boards, and participation in and contribution to Board activities.

Each Director nominee has the appropriate qualifications and experience for membership on the Board of Directors. The Board is made up of individuals with strong and unique backgrounds, which gives the Board a wide range of competencies and experience that enable it to serve the interests of Hubbell and its shareholders.

**14&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**I **HUBBELL INCORPORATED**

[Back to Contents](#toc)

## **Commitment to Board Integrity, Experience, and Independence** 
In addition to confirming that our Director nominees have the requisite skills and qualifications, the NCGC focuses on ensuring that the nominees demonstrate the right leadership traits, personality, work ethic, independence, and diversity of skills and experience to align with our performance culture and our long-term strategic vision.

Specifically, service on Hubbell's Board requires:

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| ![](lhubb2026x15x4.jpg) | The highest standards of personal and professional integrity |
| ![](lhubb2026x15x4.jpg) | Ability to contribute to the expertise and culture of the Board |
| ![](lhubb2026x15x4.jpg) | Ability to devote sufficient time to performing Board and Committee duties |
| ![](lhubb2026x15x4.jpg) | Independence from management |
| ![](lhubb2026x15x4.jpg) | Willingness to constructively challenge management through active participation in Board and Committee meetings |
| ![](lhubb2026x15x4.jpg) | Relevant subject matter expertise |

---

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**The Board has nominated eleven candidates for election as Directors.**

## **Nomination and Election Process** 
Hubbell's Directors are elected at each Annual Meeting of Shareholders and hold office for one-year terms or until their successors are duly elected and qualified. The Board of Directors nominated eleven candidates for election as Directors. If any of the nominees becomes unavailable to serve, the shares represented by the proxies will be voted for any substitute nominated by the Board of Directors unless the number of Directors constituting the full Board is reduced.

In searching for qualified Director candidates for election to the Board and to fill vacancies on the Board, the Board may solicit current Directors for the names of potentially qualified individuals, consult with outside advisors, retain a Director search firm, or consider nominees suggested by shareholders (see "Shareholder Nominations" below). All Director candidates, including those recommended by shareholders, are reviewed and evaluated by the NCGC in relation to the specific qualifications and experience sought by the Board for membership and the Board's needs at that time. Any interested candidate whose qualifications and experience align with these criteria will be interviewed by members of the NCGC, other Board members, and executive management to further assess the candidate's qualifications and experience and to determine if the candidate would be an appropriate fit. Candidates may be asked to submit additional information to support their potential nomination, including references. If the Board approves of a recommended candidate, the candidate will be nominated for election by Hubbell's shareholders or appointed by the Board to fill a vacancy, as applicable.

 ****

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;![](new.jpg)Hubbell's Board remains committed to refreshment. Effective August 29, 2025, the Board, at the recommendation of the NCGC, appointed Edward H. Baine to the Board and to the Board's Compensation and Finance Committees. The Board engaged JWC Consulting, an independent director search firm, to assist in the search for this new Director.

In 2025, consistent with our commitment to implementing best corporate governance practices and in response to shareholder feedback, the Company changed its voting standard in uncontested director elections from a plurality vote standard to a majority vote standard.

This change was approved by the Company's shareholders at the 2025 Annual Shareholders Meeting on May 6, 2025. The Company revised its Certificate of Incorporation, Bylaws, and Corporate Governance Guidelines to reflect such changes as well.

## **Shareholder Nominations** 
Any shareholder who wishes to recommend a candidate to the NCGC for consideration as a Director nominee should do so in writing, providing the information described in Article I, Section 11(A)(2) of our By-Laws, to the Secretary of Hubbell. In addition, the proxy access provisions in our By-Laws provide that a shareholder, or a group of up to 20 shareholders, owning at least 3% of Hubbell's outstanding common stock continuously for at least three years, may nominate director nominees constituting up to the greater of two (2) or twenty percent (20%) of the number of Directors serving on the Board for inclusion in our annual meeting proxy materials. Nominating shareholders and nominees must satisfy the requirements set forth in our By-Laws. See "Shareholder Proposals and Nominations for Director" on page 81 for additional details.

2026 PROXY STATEMENT&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;I **15**

[Back to Contents](#toc)

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**All of the Director nominees are current Directors of the Company.**

## **Director Nominees** 
The nominees are proposed by the Board to stand for election at the 2026 Annual Meeting of Shareholders and to serve as Directors until the 2027 Annual Meeting.

Our Director nominees offer a diverse range of skills and experience in areas that are relevant to our business and operations.

### Required Vote
With respect to Proposal 1, because the election of Directors is uncontested, Directors shall be elected by the vote of the majority of votes cast, which means that the number of shares voted "FOR" a Director nominee must exceed the number of votes cast "AGAINST" that Director. Abstentions and broker non-votes will not affect the election of Directors. Broker discretionary voting is not allowed; if your shares are held by a broker, you must instruct the broker how to vote or your shares will not be counted with respect to Proposal 1.

2026 PROXY STATEMENT **\|**&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**23**

[Back to Contents](#toc)

## **Board Leadership Structure** 
**Our independent Lead Director counterbalances a non**-**independent Chair and fosters effective collaboration and communication among the independent Directors.**

### Chair
Our By-Laws require the Board to choose the Chair of the Board from among the Directors, including potentially Hubbell's CEO. This approach gives the Board the necessary flexibility to determine whether the CEO and Chair positions should be held by the same person or by separate people based on the leadership needs of the Company at any particular time. The Board believes there is no single, generally accepted approach to providing board leadership, and that each possible leadership structure must be considered in the context of the individuals involved and the specific circumstances facing a company at any given time. Accordingly, Hubbell's optimal Board leadership structure may vary as circumstances change.

Mr. Bakker has served as Hubbell's Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer since May 2021. The Board has determined that combining the roles of Chief Executive Officer and Chair is best for the Company and its shareholders at this time. This structure promotes unified leadership and allows for a single, clear focus for management to execute Hubbell's strategic and business plans and is appropriately balanced by the presence of an independent Lead Director.

### Independent Lead Director
The Board has established the position of an independent Lead Director to serve a three-year term. The Board believes that a three-year term is appropriate as it affords continuity and gives the Lead Director time to gain an understanding of Board and management dynamics and to build relationships with the other Directors. The Lead Director is responsible for:

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| **Board Leadership** | Providing leadership to the Board in situations where the Chair's role may be perceived to be in conflict. |
| **Executive Sessions** | Coordinating the agenda and chairing executive sessions of the independent Directors regularly throughout the year and at each regularly scheduled Board meeting. |
| **Liaison** | Regularly meeting with the Chair and facilitating communications among the Chair, management, and the independent Directors. |
| **Spokesperson** | Upon request, acting as the spokesperson for the Board in interactions with third parties. |
| **Succession** | Working with the NCGC and the Chair to review, refresh, and oversee the Company's succession plans. |

---

Currently, Mr. Guzzi is the Lead Director and is expected to hold this position until the 2028 Annual Shareholders Meeting. Following the 2028 Annual Meeting, the Board will, upon recommendation from the NCGC, appoint a Director for the next three-year Lead Director term. The Board believes that its present leadership structure and composition provides for independent and effective oversight of the Company's business and affairs. The Directors all are seasoned leaders, including current or former CEOs, CFOs, COOs, or senior executives of major companies in similar industries and military leaders. In addition, all of the Board's standing committees (except the Executive Committee) are composed entirely of Directors who meet the independence requirements of the New York Stock Exchange ("NYSE"). Mr. Bakker is the only Director who is a member of executive management. Given the accomplished leadership of Mr. Bakker as Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer, the counterbalancing role of Hubbell's strong, independent Lead Director, and a Board otherwise made up of effective and independent Directors, the Board believes that its current leadership structure is appropriate at this time.

## **Director Independence** 
The Guidelines provide that the Board must be composed of a majority of independent Directors. Ten of our eleven current Directors are independent. The NCGC evaluates the independence of our Directors each year by reviewing all direct and indirect relationships between Directors (either directly or as a partner, shareholder, or officer of an organization that has a relationship with the Company or any of its subsidiaries), on one side, and the Company or one of its subsidiaries, on the other side, in accordance with the rules of the NYSE and the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") and considering whether any relationship is material. To that end, the NCGC oversees the annual questionnaire process for the Directors and reviews transactions with Director-affiliated entities, Code of Conduct compliance certifications, case submissions filed with the Company's confidential compliance communication resource and Company donations to charitable organizations with which a Director may be affiliated.

In the ordinary course of business, transactions may occur between Hubbell and its subsidiaries and entities with which some of the Directors are or have been affiliated. The NCGC considered the nature and dollar amounts of Hubbell's transactions with Directors and determined that none were required to be disclosed or otherwise impaired a Director's independence. All of these ordinary course transactions were significantly below the NYSE bright-line independence thresholds. As a result of the NCGC's most recent annual review, the Board determined that each of the current Directors is independent other than Mr. Bakker.

## **Board Oversight of Risk** 
Members of senior management assist the Board and its Committees with their risk oversight responsibilities through routine discussions of risks involved in their specific areas of authority. For example, our senior leaders will report to the Board at regular intervals on the Company's strategic planning activities and risks relevant to execution of the Company's strategy. In addition, from time to time, independent consultants with specific areas of expertise are engaged to discuss topics that the Board and management have determined may present a material risk to the Company's operations, plans, or reputation. The Board believes its leadership structure, with a combined CEO and Chairman position and an independent Lead Director, facilitates its role in the oversight of the Company's risks. Generally, risk oversight responsibilities are allocated as described below.

**Board of Directors**

Oversees the Company's risk management practices and annually reviews with management the implementation and results of the Company's enterprise risk management program. The risk management program identifies and quantifies a broad spectrum of risks in various categories, such as strategic, operational, compliance, financial, information technology, artificial intelligence, and cybersecurity, and develops related action plans.

### Compensation Risk Assessment
In 2025, as part of our risk management activities, the Compensation Committee reviewed the Company's compensation policies and practices applicable to all employees that could affect the Company's assessment of risk and risk management and determined that such compensation policies and practices do not create risks that are reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on the Company. See Compensation Governance Snapshot on page 41 for additional information.

## **Board Practices and Procedures** 

### Code of Business Conduct and Ethics
Hubbell requires its Directors and officers to act in accordance with the highest standards of ethical conduct. Our Code of Business Conduct and Ethics (the "Code of Conduct"), which is available on the Corporate Governance page of our website, **www.hubbell.com**, supports our commitment to the people we serve, the communities we work in, the Company, and each other. The Code of Conduct covers many areas, including conflicts of interest, ethical business conduct, employment practices, compliance with applicable laws and regulations, protection of Company assets and confidential information, and reporting obligations. Each year, to strengthen the Company's commitment to ethical conduct, we provide mandatory training on various aspects of the Code of Conduct for all Directors and officers and require them to certify compliance with the Code of Conduct. We will disclose any future amendments to, or waivers from, provisions of our Code of Conduct on our website as promptly as practicable<sup>(1)</sup>.

### Restrictions on Service on Other Public Company Boards
The Guidelines provide that Directors generally may serve on no more than three other public company boards. However, if the Company's CEO is also the Chair of the Hubbell Board, that individual may serve on no more than one other public company board. The Board believes that restrictions on service on other public company boards is important to ensure that each Director has sufficient time to dedicate to Hubbell.

### Insider Trading Policy
Hubbell's insider trading policy, which governs the purchase, sales, and other dispositions of Hubbell's securities, applies to all Directors, officers, and certain other designated employees of the Company, as well as all individuals living in such restricted person's household, entities controlled by such restricted persons and trusts over which restricted persons serve as trustees. We believe our insider trading policy and procedures are reasonably designed to promote compliance with insider trading laws, rules and regulations, and listing standards applicable to Hubbell. A copy of Hubbell's insider trading policy is included as Exhibit 19.1 to our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025, filed with the SEC on February 12, 2026.

## **Shareholder Outreach and Engagement** 
We regularly engage with shareholders on diverse topics such as financial performance, compensation, corporate governance, and sustainability (including human capital management). We are committed to continuing to engage with our shareholders and, to reviewing and applying the feedback we receive.

The Board of Directors and Hubbell's management team engage in a robust program of shareholder outreach and continue to focus on shareholders' perspectives on our compensation programs and our pay for performance philosophy. In addition, in the fourth quarter of 2025, members of our senior management engaged in a targeted outreach to Hubbell's top twenty-five shareholders representing almost 60% of Hubbell's outstanding common stock. These conversations, which were led by a cross-functional group of senior leaders, helped inform the Compensation Committee's review of the executive compensation programs and confirmed shareholders' overall support of our compensation philosophy, design, and programs and corporate governance practices.

Consistent with our commitment to implementing best corporate governance practices, and in response to shareholder feedback, in 2025 we adopted amendments to our Certificate of Incorporation and By-Laws to implement a majority voting standard in uncontested Director elections.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Director **Compensation**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**The Board's independent compensation consultant reviews and benchmarks Director compensation with the NCGC every other year.**

The NCGC annually reviews all forms of independent Director compensation paid to Directors. Biennially, the NCGC benchmarks Director compensation and recommends changes to the Board when appropriate, with the most recent review occurring in December 2025. The NCGC is supported in this benchmarking review by Exequity LLP ("Exequity"), an independent outside compensation consultant engaged by the NCGC, which provides compensation benchmarking and analysis. The NCGC targets Director compensation at the median of the same peer group used to evaluate the competitiveness of Hubbell's executive compensation levels. The NCGC also reviews Director compensation in relation to general industry companies similar to Hubbell in terms of revenue size as a secondary reference.

## **Elements of Compensation** 
In December 2025, following its biennial review, the Board of Directors, upon the recommendation of the NCGC and further supported by Exequity, decided to maintain the value of total Director compensation as reflected in the table below until the 2026 Annual Meeting of Shareholders and then increase the Director compensation amounts as set forth more fully below. The Board's decision to increase Director compensation amounts was based on the NCGC's recommendation after its review of the compensation benchmarking work presented by Exequity and is intended to ensure that the Board can continue to attract and retain talented Directors for future Board refreshment purposes.

*<sup>(6)</sup>* *Activities may include customer visits, conference attendance or training meetings.*

### Deferred Compensation Plan
The Company maintains a Deferred Compensation Plan for non-management Directors ("Deferred Plan for Directors") that enables Directors, at their election, to defer all or a portion of their annual cash Board and Committee retainers into a stock unit account, a cash account, or both.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Each stock unit in a stock unit account is equivalent to one share of Hubbell's
 common stock. Dividend equivalents are paid on the stock units contained in a Director's account and converted into
 additional stock units. Upon distribution, all stock units are payable in shares of Hubbell common stock.

• A cash account is credited with interest at the prime rate in effect at the Company's
 principal commercial bank on the date immediately following each regularly scheduled quarterly Board meeting.

The Deferred Plan for Directors also enables the Directors, at their election, to defer all or a portion of their annual restricted share grant into a restricted stock unit account that credits a depositor with one restricted stock unit for each share of restricted stock deferred. Restricted stock units are subject to the same vesting terms as the underlying deferred stock and are payable in the form of one share of Hubbell common stock for each restricted stock unit. Dividend equivalents are paid on the restricted stock units contained in the account and converted into additional restricted stock units.

Generally, distributions under the Deferred Plan for Directors are paid only after termination of service and may be paid in a lump sum or in annual installments, at the Director's election. However, in the event of a change of control, all amounts credited to a Director's account will be paid in a lump sum, with amounts credited as stock units immediately converted into a right to receive cash.

### Charitable Match
Hubbell provides the Directors and all U.S. employees with a matching program for contributions to qualifying charitable organizations and educational institutions. The Hubbell Foundation matches eligible cash donations to qualifying charitable organizations and educational institutions in a calendar year up to (i) $25,000 in the aggregate in cash donations and (ii) such other cash amounts, as applicable, matched in connection with The Hubbell Foundation's Dollars for Doers matching volunteer hours program - wherein The Hubbell Foundation makes charitable donations based on certain documented volunteer hours served. Hubbell believes strongly in the positive impact that volunteerism and charitable contributions can have on local communities and the larger world.

## **Director Compensation Table** 
The following table shows the compensation paid by the Company to non-management Directors for service on the Board of Directors during fiscal year 2025. Mr. Bakker received no compensation for his service as a Director beyond that described in the Executive Compensation section on page 57.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**Proposal 2** Advisory Vote to Approve Named Executive Officer Compensation<br>

Consistent with the preference expressed by our shareholders at the 2023 Annual Meeting, we offer our shareholders the opportunity to vote on the compensation of our NEOs every year.

In accordance with the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and Section 14A of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), we are requesting shareholder approval, on an advisory (non-binding) basis, of the compensation of our NEOs as presented in this Proxy Statement in the Compensation Discussion and Analysis section beginning on page 36 and the compensation tables and accompanying narrative disclosure in the Executive Compensation section beginning on page 57.

Accordingly, we will present the following resolution for a vote at the Annual Meeting:

"**RESOLVED**, that shareholders of Hubbell Incorporated (the "Company") approve, on an advisory basis, the compensation of the Company's Named Executive Officers as described in the Compensation Discussion and Analysis and disclosed in the 2025 Summary Compensation Table and related compensation tables and narrative disclosure as set forth in the Company's 2026 Proxy Statement."

As described more fully in the Compensation Discussion and Analysis section, our executive compensation program was designed to attract and retain highly talented executives, deliver compensation that is competitive and fair compared to relevant benchmarks, reward strong performance, and motivate executives to maximize long-term shareholder returns. To achieve our objectives, we have adopted and maintain sound compensation governance practices and a strong pay for performance philosophy. Notably, the greatest portion of our executives' total direct compensation is variable and linked to performance on both a short-term and long-term basis.

As an advisory vote, the outcome of this proposal is not binding upon the Company. However, our Compensation Committee and our Board value the opinions of our shareholders and will consider the outcome of this vote when making future compensation decisions for our NEOs.

The affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast by the holders of the outstanding shares of Hubbell common stock is required to approve, on an advisory, non-binding basis, the compensation of our NEOs. In other words, the number of votes cast "FOR" the proposal must exceed the number of votes cast "AGAINST" the proposal. Abstentions and broker non-votes will not affect the voting results. Broker discretionary voting is not allowed. If your shares are held by a broker, you must instruct the broker how to vote or your shares will not be voted with respect to Proposal 2.

---

| | |
|:---|:---|

On September 10, 2025, Hubbell announced the retirement of William R. Sperry from his role as Chief Financial Officer of Hubbell effective December 31, 2025, after 17 years of distinguished service to the Company, including 14 years as Chief Financial Officer. Joseph A. Capozzoli, the Vice President, Finance of Hubbell's Electrical Solutions segment was appointed to succeed Mr. Sperry as Senior Vice President, Chief Financial Officer, effective on January 1, 2026. Mr. Capozzoli joined Hubbell in 2013 as the Company's Vice President, Controller and served as Hubbell's Principal Accounting Officer until January 14, 2021. Mr. Capozzoli then served in various senior finance, strategy and operational roles prior to his HES segment finance role. Mr. Capozzoli's promotion to Chief Financial Officer reflects Hubbell's overall commitment to its talent development strategy and its focus on succession planning.

### Engagement With Shareholders
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**Engaging with our shareholders helps inform our approach to our executive compensation program.**

Hubbell engages with shareholders throughout the year on diverse topics such as financial performance, compensation and pay for performance, corporate governance, human capital, and corporate responsibility. In the second half of 2025, members of our senior management engaged in a targeted outreach with Hubbell's top twenty-five shareholders representing almost 60% of Hubbell's outstanding common stock. These conversations, which were led by a cross-functional group of Hubbell's senior leaders, helped inform the Compensation Committee's review of the executive compensation programs and confirmed shareholders' overall support of our compensation philosophy, design, programs and corporate governance practices.

### Results of 2025 Advisory Vote on Executive Compensation
Hubbell's 2025 advisory Say on Pay vote on executive compensation resulted in approximately 90% of the votes cast in favor of the Company's executive compensation program. Hubbell's Say on Pay votes have averaged approximately 92% of shareholders support for the last 10 years. We believe these strong results indicate that our shareholders are generally supportive of our compensation program.

As reaffirmed by our shareholders at the 2023 Annual Shareholders Meeting, and consistent with the Board's recommendation, Hubbell will continue to submit a Say on Pay proposal for a non-binding vote on an annual basis.

### 2025 Business Performance Highlights
We measure our progress not only in terms of our financial accomplishments, but also by looking at whether we served the best interests of our shareholders, suppliers, customers, employees, and the communities in which we operate. Our financial accomplishments in 2025 included:

---

A reconciliation to the comparable GAAP financial measures can be found in Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025, filed with the SEC on February 12, 2026.*

### Compensation Summary
The Compensation Committee, in consultation with Exequity, the Board's independent compensation consultant, reviews the objectives and components of Hubbell's executive compensation program and reviewed and approved the 2025 compensation earned by our NEOs.

We believe the elements of our compensation program continue to drive our overall pay for performance philosophy and alignment with our shareholders, and encourage continued execution on Hubbell's strategic initiatives. The compensation program includes both short-term and long-term incentives for all NEOs.

#### **Short-Term Incentive Metrics and Weighting** 
All employees eligible to participate in our Short-Term Incentive program, including our NEOs, can earn an annual bonus based 80% on financial results, with the remaining 20% tied to initiatives aligned to our annual and multi-year strategy. This allows the Compensation Committee to further prioritize and appropriately reward performance on critical non-financial metrics.

#### **Long-Term Incentive Metrics and Weighting** 
The overall design of our Long-Term Incentive program focuses our NEOs on our strategic priorities of profitable growth balanced with operational effectiveness, while ensuring alignment with shareholder interests. To that end, 75% of the Long-Term Incentive Award is performance-oriented and the remaining 25% is retention-oriented. The performance share grant has three equally-weighted financial performance metrics and constitutes 50% of the overall equity award. Stock appreciation rights, weighted at 25% of the long-term incentive value, are tied to the appreciation of our stock price, ensuring alignment with shareholders.

## **CEO Pay vs. Realized Pay vs. Company Performance** 
The Summary Compensation Table on page 57 discloses annual compensation for our NEOs in accordance with SEC regulations. These regulations require the Long-term Incentive awards to be presented at their grant date value. While grant-date pay can be a helpful measure for comparing target pay across companies, it may not reflect the actual value ultimately delivered to the NEOs based on Company performance.

In order to better assess the relationship between pay and performance, the Compensation Committee reviews the NEOs' realized compensation and performance on both an absolute basis and on a relative basis in comparison to our peer group. The following table explains the pay shown in the Summary Compensation Table and realized compensation and how they differ.

| **Summary Compensation Table (SCT)** | ***SEC mandated disclosure***<br>Compensation awarded in the reporting year, as well as value estimates for other types of compensation.<br>Amounts shown for base salary, bonuses, and cash incentives are the amounts earned in the year indicated.

| **Realized Compensation** | ***Used to measure impact of performance on pay***<br>Compensation earned during the reporting year, including the actual results of performance-based Long-Term Incentive compensation, plus compensation awarded prior to the reporting year that remains dependent on Company performance.<br>Amounts included for base salary, bonuses, and cash incentives are the amounts earned in the year indicated (consistent with the SCT). Amounts included for Long-Term Incentive awards reflect the actual value of restricted shares that vested during the period and performance awards paid out during the period (if any), the value of stock appreciation rights exercised during the period, and changes in the value of unvested restricted shares and stock appreciation rights based on changes in our stock price during the period. |

The graph below identifies for Hubbell and for our Peer Group (as described on pages 44-45) the relationship between CEO pay rank and relative return to shareholders for 2025. Each black dot represents a company in the Peer Group. The blue dot marked "Hubbell (2025)" reflects our CEO's 2025 realized compensation and our Total Shareholder Return (TSR) performance. The shaded area marks the range that characterizes ideal pay-for-performance alignment. Peer company estimated compensation reflects 2024 compensation as reported, including 2025 stock price performance and corresponding 2025 TSR performance. This graphic illustrates that our CEO's compensation is aligned with the Company's TSR performance, and therefore with our shareholders' experience as well.

## **Our Compensation Program** 

### Executive Compensation Objectives
Our compensation decisions for 2025 were directly influenced by our operating results, peer benchmarking, and our shareholder outreach. We use the following objectives to guide our decisions:

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| **PAY FOR PERFORMANCE** | Align interests of executives with those of our shareholders by linking executive pay to Company performance. |
| **ATTRACT, RETAIN, AND MOTIVATE** | Incentivize high-quality executive talent essential to our immediate and long-term success. |
| **DELIVER COMPETITIVE AND FAIR COMPENSATION** | Target compensation for our executives to align with relevant external benchmarks, considering their role, responsibilities, tenure, and Company and individual performance. |

---

### Compensation Governance Snapshot
The following are highlights of our compensation practices and decisions that exemplify our commitment to sound compensation governance and shareholders' interests.

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| ![](lhubb2026x47x1.jpg) **What We Do** | ![](lhubb2026x47x2.jpg) **What We Don't Do** |
| **Pay for Performance.** We closely align pay and performance by placing a significant portion of total direct compensation at risk. | **No Guaranteed Annual Salary Increases or Bonuses.** Annual salary increases are based on evaluations of individual performance and the competitive market. Bonus payouts, if any, are based on financial and individual performance against specific targets. |
| **Independent Compensation Consultant.** The Compensation Committee retains an independent compensation consultant to review and advise on executive compensation matters. | **No Consultant Conflicts.** The independent compensation consultant cannot provide any other services to Hubbell without the Compensation Committee's prior approval. |
| **Robust Performance Goals.** We establish clear, measurable goals and hold executives accountable for achieving defined targets to earn a payout under our incentive plans. Performance goals are aligned with key operating priorities designed to drive long-term shareholder value. | **No Hedging or Pledging.** We prohibit our executives, including our NEOs, from hedging or engaging in derivatives trading with respect to Hubbell common stock and from pledging Hubbell stock as collateral for a loan. |
| **Annual Benchmarking.** We review peer and market practice, as well as pay levels, on an annual basis. | **No Excessive Perks.** We provide limited perquisites to our NEOs: financial and tax planning reimbursements, limited use of the corporate aircraft, and a charitable matching gift program available to all U.S. employees. Any perquisites are subject to Board oversight. |
| **Shareholder Engagement.** We conduct formal outreach with our investors to discuss our compensation programs, human capital, corporate governance matters and other key topics. | **No Tax Gross**-**Ups.** We do not provide tax gross-ups for severance, excise tax, or other benefits provided to our executives (including the NEOs). |
| **Strong Governance.** We maintain a compensation recoupment (clawback) policy that complies with SEC rules and NYSE listing standards, and our Short-Term Incentive plans include the option for negative (but not upward) discretion by the Compensation Committee regarding award amounts paid. | **No Excessive Supplemental Retirement Plans.** We froze our supplemental executive retirement plan and only provide new benefits under qualified retirement plans that are made available generally to employees and under non-qualified defined contribution plans that are made available to certain executives. |
| **Stock Ownership.** We require senior executives, including our NEOs, to maintain significant ownership of Hubbell common stock. Our CEO has an ownership requirement of 5 times his base salary, which he currently exceeds. | **No Repricing or Cash Buyouts.** We prohibit the repricing or buyout of options and SARs without shareholder approval. |
| **Risk Assessment.** We conduct an annual compensation risk assessment to ensure our compensation program discourages excessive risk taking. | **No Employment Agreement with CEO or NEOs.** We do not have employment agreements with any of our NEOs, including our CEO, Mr. Bakker, and our new CFO, Mr. Capozzoli. |
|  | **No Single Trigger on Change in Control Benefits.** Change in control benefits are provided only if there is both a change in control and a qualifying termination. |

### Elements of Compensation
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**The majority of the NEOs' pay is at risk, subject to Hubbell's performance.**

The below chart represents the compensation mix for all of our NEOs as of December 31, 2025.

![](lhubb2026x48x1.jpg)

Our pay for performance compensation philosophy is intended to reward our executives for their contributions toward achieving Hubbell's goals and implementing our business strategy. In addition, compensation packages for our executives consist of fixed and variable elements that deliver competitive compensation that enhances the Company's ability to attract and retain high quality management talent. Our compensation objectives and business strategy drive how our Compensation Committee designs the elements of our compensation program, as outlined in the following table.

---

| | | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|
| **2025 Compensation** | **What?** | **When?** | **How?** | **Link to Strategy and**<br> **Performance** |
| **Base Salary** | Fixed Cash | Annual | Reviewed annually for potential adjustment based on factors such as market competitiveness, individual performance, and scope of responsibility. | Competitive fixed cash compensation that attracts high caliber executives to lead our Company. |
| **Short**-**Term Incentive** | Variable Cash | Annual | Based on performance against Company financial goals, and where applicable, business segment financial objectives as well as individual performance against the Company's strategic objectives. | Designed to motivate our executives to attain short-term performance goals that are linked to our long-term financial and strategic performance objectives. |
| **Long**-**Term Incentive:**<br> 50% Performance Shares | Variable Equity | 3-year performance period | Provides a balance between internal and external performance. Performance metrics: relative sales growth, adjusted operating profit margin, and relative total shareholder return. | Motivates executives to achieve the Company's critical long-term financial goals and outperform our peers, and aligns executives' and shareholders' interests in share price appreciation. |
| 25% Stock Appreciation Rights (SARs) | Variable Equity | 3-year ratable vesting | Delivers value to participant based on the appreciation in our stock price between the date of grant and the date of exercise. | Aligns executives' and shareholders' interests in share price appreciation. |
| 25% Restricted Shares | Variable Equity | 3-year cliff vesting | Provides value to executives for their commitment to the Company. Represents a grant of shares of Hubbell common stock that vests after a three-year period. | Promotes the retention of key executives, and aligns executives' and shareholders' interests in share price appreciation. |

## **How We Make Compensation Decisions** 

### Roles for Designing and Delivering Compensation
Hubbell has a clearly defined process and roles for making decisions about executive compensation.

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| **Role** | **Process** |
| Compensation Committee | Oversees compensation programs and has ultimate responsibility. |
| Independent Compensation Consultant | Provides market data, insight, and support and advice to the Compensation Committee. |
| CEO and Management | Provide data and limited input to the Compensation Committee. |
| Shareholders | Feedback drives our compensation program design. |

---

### Role of the Compensation Committee and the Independent Compensation Consultant
The Compensation Committee determines the Company's compensation philosophy and approves each element of executive compensation. The Compensation Committee relies on advice and data provided by Exequity, an independent compensation consultant engaged by the Compensation Committee. Exequity does not advise management and receives no compensation from Hubbell for services other than those provided to the Compensation Committee and the NCGC (for which it provides guidance on independent Director compensation, as described on page 32). Although the Compensation Committee considers recommendations made by the CEO with respect to executive compensation for executives other than himself, the Compensation Committee is solely responsible for making all executive compensation decisions.

The Compensation Committee discusses its compensation philosophy with Exequity and expects Exequity to present options for award practices and to provide context for any proposals, but otherwise does not impose any specific limitations or constraints on or direct the manner in which Exequity performs its advisory services. As advisor to the Compensation Committee, Exequity reviews the compensation strategy and pay levels for the NEOs, examines all aspects of the Company's executive compensation programs to ensure they support our business strategy and objectives, informs the Compensation Committee of developing regulatory considerations and trends affecting executive compensation and benefit programs, and provides general advice with respect to all compensation decisions pertaining to the CEO and to all officer compensation recommendations submitted by management.

The Compensation Committee assesses the independence of Exequity annually and has concluded that no conflict of interest currently exists or existed in 2025 that would prevent Exequity from providing independent advice to the Compensation Committee. In making this determination, the Compensation Committee considered, among other things, the following factors: (1) Exequity did not provide any non-compensation-related services to (and did not receive any fees for any non-compensation-related services from) Hubbell; (2) the engagement complied with Exequity's internal conflict of interest policies; (3) there are no other business or personal relationships between Company management or members of the Compensation Committee and any representatives of Exequity who provide services to the Company; and (4) neither Exequity nor any representatives of Exequity who provide services to the Company own any Hubbell securities.

### Process and Timeline for Designing and Delivering Compensation
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**The Compensation Committee follows a comprehensive process to determine compensation values and benchmark program design.**

Over the course of its four planned meetings each year, Hubbell's Compensation Committee thoroughly reviews compensation design and amounts for our NEOs. In addition to the meetings described below, the Compensation Committee may schedule additional meetings throughout the year. The timeline below sets forth a subset of certain of the topics the Compensation Committee considers in consultation with Exequity.

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
| **FEBRUARY** | • | Approve base pay changes, Short-Term Incentive payouts and Long-Term Incentive grant values. |
|  | • | Approve performance goals, plan designs, and targets for the LTI and STI programs. |
|  | • | Finalize applicable performance share payouts for the three-year performance period that ended the prior year. |
|  | • | Review tally sheets<sup>(1)</sup> for all NEOs and officers of the Company. |
| **MAY** | • | Review pay for performance and realized compensation analysis for the prior year and three-year period. |
|  | • | Review the composition of the Peer Group. |
|  | • | Conduct a risk assessment. |

|  | • | Continue to review/discuss any program design changes for the upcoming year. |
|  | • | Continue to review targets and projections for Short-Term Incentives and Long-Term Incentive performance grants. |
|  | • | Review stock ownership of Directors and officers. |

---

*<sup>(1)</sup>* *Tally sheets identify and value each element of compensation, including base salary, Short-Term and Long-Term Incentive awards, pension benefits, deferred compensation, perquisites, and potential change in control and severance benefits and provide an aggregate sum for each NEO and officer.*

### Compensation Peer Group
The Compensation Committee assesses each element of executive compensation against the median compensation levels paid to executives in comparable positions in similar industries. The Compensation Committee reviewed 2024 benchmark data from two sources, the Peer Group and general industry survey data to help inform 2025 target compensation.

The Peer Group used to determine pay levels for 2025 was constructed based on three primary criteria:

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
| ![](lhubb2026x50x1.jpg) | ![](lhubb2026x50x1.jpg) | ![](lhubb2026x50x1.jpg) |
| **Industry Affiliation**<br>Companies within the Electrical Components and Equipment, Building Products, and Industrial Machinery industries. | **Similar Size**<br>Companies with revenues ranging from 0.5x to 3.0x Hubbell's revenues. Hubbell's revenues approximate the median of the Peer Group. | **Competitors for Talent**<br>Companies that are relevant as sources and destinations of talent in critical sales, engineering, and other functional talent areas that drive our business. |

The Compensation Committee reviews the Peer Group annually and in 2024 decided to revise the Peer Group for 2025 by removing AGCO Corporation, Crane Company, Curtis-Wright Corporation, and Woodward, Inc. from the Peer Group due to limited comparability to Hubbell in terms of business fit and size. The Compensation Committee then approved adding two new companies: Emerson Electric Co. and Illinois Tool Works Inc. to the Peer Group for 2025, with each company identified as being comparable to Hubbell based on criteria considered and to further ensure that Hubbell continues to approximate the Peer Group median in terms of revenue size.

**2025 Compensation Results**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**The Committee targets the 50th percentile of the Peer Group data for each compensation element.**

### Base Salary
Base salary is the principal fixed component of total direct compensation paid to the NEOs. Salaries are determined by reference to prevailing market pay rates, scope of job responsibility, and performance considerations. Annually, in February of each year, the Compensation Committee reviews and approves increases as appropriate for the NEOs to ensure their base salaries remain within range of market-representative pay levels. In February 2025, the Compensation Committee approved certain market and performance-based increases to the base salaries of the NEOs.

### Short-Term Incentive Compensation
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**Hubbell's Short**-**Term Incentive program emphasizes our most critical annual financial metrics using performance goals established at the beginning of the year.**

Hubbell's Short-Term Incentive ("STI") program is similar to executive STI award plans that are common at other manufacturing companies. Maintaining an STI program that typifies those used elsewhere makes the Company's program competitive and helps us attract and retain high quality executive talent. STI awards are only paid to the extent the Company achieves the performance goals established by the Compensation Committee at the beginning of each year, and can range from 0% to 200% of an NEO's STI target. The predetermined performance goals are intended to be challenging and consistent with the Compensation Committee's view of strong business performance. The Compensation Committee may use its discretion to reduce (but not increase) the actual amount of the STI awards paid. Payouts are delivered in cash, subject to applicable tax withholding.

Annual Short-term Incentive Targets

STI targets for the NEOs, which are expressed as a percentage of base salary, are intended to approximate the median of the market for comparable positions. If targets are changed during the course of the year (e.g., due to a mid-year promotion), the full year target is pro-rated to reflect pre- and post-change periods. The 2025 target awards for the NEOs as approved by the Compensation Committee are shown below.

| | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|
| **Metric** | **Level**<br> **Measured** | **How is it calculated?** | **Why is it included in the STI Program?** |
| **Adjusted Earnings Per Share (EPS)<sup>(1)</sup>** | **Enterprise** | Adjusted net income<sup>(1)</sup> divided by outstanding shares of common stock. | Affects TSR most directly and is the most critical measure of growth. |
| **Free Cash Flow (FCF)<sup>(1)</sup>** | **Enterprise** | Cash flow from operations less capital expenditures. | Demonstrates management's ability to generate cash for the business for ongoing operations and future investments. |
| **Operating Profit (OP)** | **Business segment** | Segment-level net sales less cost of goods sold and selling and administrative expenses. | The most comprehensive measure of business segment performance; represents the direct impact of the segment leader on the business. |
| **Operating Cash Flow (OCF)** | **Business segment** | Net cash from operating activities. | Demonstrates the segment leaders' ability to manage ongoing operations in a positive manner, generating cash for the enterprise. |
| **Strategic Objectives** | **Individual** | The Compensation Committee's evaluation of the CEO's and other NEOs' impact on Hubbell's strategic objectives (including CEO input regarding the other NEOs). | Strategic objectives prioritize the most critical short-term and long-term actions that will position the business to deliver shareholder value. |

#### **STI Calculations** 
As shown below, the NEOs' STI awards are calculated differently depending on their respective roles at Hubbell.

![](lhubb2026x53x1.jpg)

#### **Strategic Objective Measures** 
20% of each NEO's 2025 STI award is based on the attainment of Hubbell's strategic objectives. Strategic objectives are set at the beginning of each year in the categories listed below, which represent the core pillars of Hubbell's multi-year strategy. At the end of the annual performance period, the Compensation Committee, with input from the CEO and senior management, evaluates Hubbell's performance on these objectives and assigns a payout factor for each NEO's overall STI payout. Payout factors can range from 0-200%.

#### **2025 Performance Results and Payout** 
**Enterprise**-**Level Measures**

For 2025, adjusted earnings per share<sup>(1)</sup> was $18.21, which was then adjusted for predetermined discrete items not considered in assessing the performance versus target, including unspent but planned restructuring and related expenses and one-time impacts to the financials from changing the basis of inventory accounting from LIFO to FIFO, an unplanned tax benefit, and changes in foreign currency exchange rates. These adjustments reduced the overall payout.

**Strategic Objective Measures**

At the end of the annual performance period, Hubbell's performance on the strategic objectives for 2025 was evaluated to determine the payout percentage for this portion of the NEO's Short-Term Incentive awards. Over the course of 2025, the Company made progress against all the strategic objectives as outlined below.

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
| **Strategic Objective** | **Achievements** | **Achievements** |
| **Serve our Customers** | • | Improved customer satisfaction and customer responsiveness scores. |
|  | • | Expanded the sales pipeline and increased overall channel conversions. |
|  | • | Provided frequent and clear guidance to customers regarding tariff and trade policy matters. |
| **Grow the Enterprise** | • | Closed on 3 acquisitions (Ventev, Nicor and DMC Power) and 1 disposition (Metron). |
|  | • | Continued to grow key end market verticals and increased focus on organic growth. |
| **Operate with Discipline** | • | Safety metrics outperformed goals; continued focus on safety across the enterprise. |
|  | • | Outperformed productivity goals; continued to drive procurement, SIOP (sales, inventory and operations planning) and footprint optimization. |
| **Develop our People** | • | Continued focus on location metrics that include tailored training, engagement, retention and development plans. |
|  | • | Ongoing focus on employee development and succession planning exemplified by the successful transition of the long-time Chief Financial Officer (William R. Sperry) and the appointment of his successor (Joseph A. Capozzoli) effective January 1, 2026. |

---

The achievements in each of the four strategic pillars were assessed on a scale of 0 - 200%. The four ratings were then averaged with equal weighting to determine a final payout percentage. Based on the strong performance outlined above, the weighted average across all four objectives for 2025 resulted in a 110% payout for this strategic component.

In addition to leadership on the enterprise-wide objectives as described above, factors considered by the Board and the Compensation Committee in evaluating the CEO's strategic performance include objectives targeted to Hubbell's vision to be a valued investment and an exceptional customer partner. In considering Mr. Bakker's performance in such areas, and in light of the overall assessment of the enterprise as described above, the Compensation Committee approved a 110% payout for Mr. Bakker for the strategic portion of his STI award.

### Long-Term Incentive Compensation
Hubbell maintains a Long-Term Incentive ("LTI") plan that gives our senior leaders the opportunity to earn rewards in the form of Hubbell common stock pursuant to the Company's Incentive Award Plan (the "Equity Plan"). The Equity Plan is designed to:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Promote growth in the Company's share price by rewarding actions that enhance enterprise value.

• Ensure long-term rewards are appropriately aligned with performance outcomes.

• Encourage leadership to accumulate equity ownership, strengthening alignment with shareholders.

• Motivate, retain, and reward the NEOs.

![](lhubb2026x55x1.jpg)

We believe the design of our LTI program creates a long-term performance-based orientation and encourages executives to remain with the Company.

The value of LTI awards granted to our executives each year is based on several factors, including external benchmarking, the Company's short- and long-term financial performance, the value of awards granted in prior years, succession considerations, and individual performance.

#### **Performance Share Awards** 
Our performance share program has evolved in response to our shareholders' feedback to ensure alignment with our business strategy, with consistent metrics since 2022. The following table outlines the outstanding performance awards granted to our NEOs.

| | | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|
| **Grant Date** | **Performance Period** | **Program Metrics** | **Status** | **See Pages** |
| Feb. 2025 | 2025 – 2027 | Relative Sales Growth, <br> Adjusted Operating Profit Margin<sup>(1)</sup>, <br> Relative Total Shareholder Return | Pending end of performance period | 50-51 |
| Feb. 2024 | 2024 – 2026 | Relative Sales Growth, <br> Adjusted Operating Profit Margin<sup>(1)</sup>, <br> Relative Total Shareholder Return | Pending end of performance period | 50-51 |
| Feb. 2023 | 2023 – 2025 | Relative Sales Growth, <br> Adjusted Operating Profit Margin<sup>(1)</sup>, <br> Relative Total Shareholder Return | Performance period complete | 50-52 |

A reconciliation to the comparable GAAP financial measure can be found in Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025, filed with the SEC on February 12, 2026.*

In all cases, the actual number of performance shares earned by an NEO will be determined at the end of the three-year period based on Company performance as measured by the performance metrics and targets set at the time of the grant, all of which are described in the following pages.

#### **Performance Share Award Index** 
For all relative measures in the performance share awards, Hubbell uses the S&P Capital Goods 900 Index, which is a compilation of the S&P 400 and the S&P 500 Capital Goods indices and not a published index. The Compensation Committee chose this index as it is a more direct comparison to Hubbell's business and size than any other index.

#### **Performance Share Grant Design** 
Performance share grants made in February 2025, 2024, and 2023 were based on three equally-weighted metrics: Relative Sales Growth, Adjusted Operating Profit Margin<sup>(1)</sup>, and Relative Total Shareholder Return (TSR). The table below details the metrics and calculation methodology, and explains why each metric is important to the business.

---

| | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|
| **Metric** | **Weight** | **How is it calculated?** | **Why is it included in the LTI Program?** |
| **Relative Sales Growth** | **34%** | Hubbell's compounded annual growth rate as compared to the compounded annual growth rate for the companies that make up the S&P Capital Goods 900 Index. | Drives growth initiatives, including organic growth, new product development, innovation, and acquisition performance. Relative performance ensures that we are not only focused on internal growth but also focused on outpacing our peers. |
| **Adjusted Operating Profit Margin<sup>(1)</sup>** | **33%** | Adjusted operating income divided by net sales, as compared to a target set at the beginning of the three-year performance period. | Focuses NEOs on margin expansion and productivity while they execute operational objectives, including footprint optimization and manufacturing and procurement efficiency. |
| **Relative TSR** | **33%** | Total Shareholder Return (average of the last 20 trading days of the preceding performance period compared to the average of the last 20 trading days of the performance period, with dividends reinvested as shares), as compared to TSR for the companies that make up the S&P Capital Goods 900 Index. | Provides balance between internal and external performance and ensures alignment with shareholder value creation. |

#### **Performance Share Grant Targets** 
The table below sets out each metric at the enterprise level, the respective goals for the three-year performance period, and the payout percentage of performance shares that would be earned at each specified level of performance. The relative performance and resulting payout scale is designed to align executive compensation with meaningful levels of performance while ensuring appropriate rewards for achieving superior outcomes. This structure, which is reflective of market and peer group practices balances risk and reward for the Company and shareholders. Internally, we communicate to our executives the quartile performance of our peers and Hubbell for each metric and focus our executives on achieving top or 2nd quartile performance, while looking to avoid 3rd or 4th quartile performance.

#### **Performance Share Grant Payout (2023 Grant)** 
The performance period for the LTI performance share grant made in February 2023 ended on December 31, 2025. The table below shows Hubbell's actual performance with respect to each metric and the associated payouts.

|  |  |  |  | **172%** |

---

*<sup>(1)</sup>* *The calculation of the relative sales growth measure is dependent upon public availability of financial results from our peer companies. The Compensation Committee cannot determine the level of achievement of the performance criteria until a sufficient number of S&P Capital Goods 900 Index companies report their earnings for the year ended December 31, 2025. As a result, the actual payout results for the 2023-2025 performance share award grants based on Relative Sales Growth will not be determined until April 2026 and such payouts will not be approved by the Compensation Committee until after the filing of this Proxy Statement. The above projections reflect the results available as of March 23, 2026, including consensus estimates for sales growth for the Peer Group. Shareholders are cautioned that this information is preliminary, is subject to change based on the actual reported results of the S&P Capital Goods 900 Index companies and has not been finalized by the Compensation Committee.*

The table below shows the target shares awarded to the NEOs in February 2023 and the estimated number of shares they are expected to receive provided that the Compensation Committee approves payouts in May 2026 after reviewing published financial results for the S&P Capital Goods 900 Index companies.

#### **Stock Appreciation Rights ("SARs")** 
A vested SAR gives the holder the right to receive the value (in shares of Hubbell's common stock) equal to the positive difference between the base price of the SAR and the market value of a share of our common stock when the SAR is exercised. SARs vest in three equal installments on each of the first three anniversaries of the grant date. The base price of a SAR is the mean between the high and low trading prices of Hubbell's common stock as reported on the NYSE on the trading day immediately preceding the date of grant (i.e., for the February 18, 2025, grants, the February 14, 2025, price of $393.16). The Company calculates the value of a vested SAR this way for two reasons. First, using the trading price from the day before the grant enables the Compensation Committee to know the exact grant price and therefore the exact value of each grant before it is made. Second, because of the relatively low volume at which Hubbell's stock trades, the mean represents a more accurate picture of the fair market value of the stock than does the closing price. For purposes of determining individual award levels, the number of shares subject to each SAR is formulated on the basis of a modified Black-Scholes calculation. See the section entitled "Equity Award Plan Vesting Provisions-Grant Terms" on page 60 for additional information on the terms of SAR awards.

[Back to Contents](#toc)

#### **Time** - **Based Restricted Stock** 
Time-based restricted stock incentivizes executives to remain with the Company and to create and maintain value for shareholders. Restricted shares do not vest unless the executive is employed with the Company on the vesting date, with the value of restricted shares depending on the price of Hubbell's stock on such date. Restricted stock awards are granted in shares of Hubbell common stock and generally vest on the three-year anniversary of the grant date.

## **Other Compensation Policies** 

### Stock Ownership and Retention Policy
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**Each NEO currently satisfies Hubbell's stock ownership policy requirements.**

Hubbell's Stock Ownership and Retention Policy (the "Stock Ownership Policy") is applicable to the NEOs, other officers of the Company, senior level employees, and non-employee Directors. The terms and conditions of the Stock Ownership Policy are annually reviewed by the Compensation Committee and Exequity to ensure consistency with current market practices and external benchmarks and alignment between the interests of the covered employees and the interests of the Company's shareholders.

The Stock Ownership Policy requires covered employees to attain a minimum share ownership level equal to their base salary times a certain multiplier, as indicated in the below table.

MINIMUM STOCK OWNERSHIP REQUIREMENT

![](lhubb2026x59x1.jpg)

The Stock Ownership Policy provides:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• A covered employee who has not yet satisfied the applicable ownership minimum requirement must retain 100% of the net shares acquired pursuant to the exercise of a SAR and all other shares that person directly or indirectly acquires.

• Once the minimum share ownership level is satisfied, covered employees are expected to continue to satisfy the requirement for as long as they are subject to the Policy.

• Shares that count toward the minimum share ownership requirement include shares held directly and indirectly by the covered employee, including restricted stock granted under the Equity Plan, and in-the-money vested (but unexercised) SARs. Shares underlying unearned performance shares are not counted.

• Covered employees have approximately five years from the earliest date they become subject to the Stock Ownership Policy to achieve their minimum ownership requirement. Covered employees who are promoted to positions with a higher minimum ownership requirement similarly have five years to increase their holdings to satisfy the new requirement.

As of December 31, 2025, all NEOs were in compliance with the Stock Ownership Policy. The Stock Ownership Policy can be viewed on the Company's website at **www.hubbell.com**. The reference to our website address does not constitute incorporation by reference of the information contained on the website, and such information is not a part of this Proxy Statement.

### Compensation Recovery Policy (Clawback)
Our Compensation Recovery Policy addresses situations in which Hubbell is required to prepare an accounting restatement of its financial statements due to Hubbell's material noncompliance with any financial reporting requirement under securities laws, including any required accounting restatement to correct an error in previously issued financial statements that is material to the previously issued financial statements, or that would result in a material misstatement if the error were corrected in the current period or left uncorrected in the current period. Under the Compensation Recovery Policy, the Compensation Committee will promptly attempt to recover any erroneously awarded incentive-based compensation received by any covered executive officer (including the NEOs) during the three completed fiscal years immediately preceding the date on which Hubbell is required to prepare such an accounting restatement. Covered executive officers include both current and former executive officers. Incentive-based compensation includes any compensation that is granted, earned or vested based wholly or in part on the attainment of a financial reporting measure such as a stock price goal or total shareholder return. The amount required to be recovered in the event of an accounting restatement will equal the amount of incentive-based compensation received by the covered executive officer that exceeds the amount of such compensation that otherwise would have been received had it been determined based on the restated amounts, computed without regard to any taxes paid. The Compensation Recovery Policy complies with NYSE listing standards.

All actions taken under this policy will be determined by the Board of Directors in its sole discretion upon consultation with the Audit Committee and the Compensation Committee.

### Policy Prohibiting Hedging and Pledging
Our officers, Directors, and certain employees designated by Hubbell's Executive Vice President, General Counsel and Secretary who may have access to material, non-public information about Hubbell and its financial condition, as well as anyone sharing a household with a restricted person and any entities directly or indirectly controlled by a restricted person, are prohibited from (i) engaging in hedging, monetization transactions, or similar arrangements involving our stock, including short sales, margin transactions, put or call options, and derivatives such as swaps, forwards, and futures transactions; (ii) pledging our stock as collateral for a loan, credit, stop loss, or any other limit orders placed with a broker, except pursuant to an approved 10b5-1 plan; and (iii) purchasing Hubbell stock on margin or holding it in a margin account.

## **Employee Benefit Programs** 

### Overview
The NEOs receive health and welfare and retirement benefits that are generally available to all employees, which include cafeteria-style plans that provide medical, dental, prescription, life, and disability insurance and the option to purchase other voluntary benefits. The NEOs also receive certain additional retirement benefits, limited perquisites (as detailed on page 55), severance, and change in control protections. These additional benefits are similar to the types and amounts available to senior executives of other manufacturing companies as demonstrated in benchmark data. The following outlines the benefit plans available to the NEOs. These plans provide retirement planning tools that help the Company attract and retain senior management.

### Retirement Plans and Nonqualified Deferred Compensation Plans

#### **Qualified Pension Plans** 
The Company maintains a defined benefit pension plan (the "DB Plan") and a defined contribution retirement plan (the "DC Plan") in which NEOs participate, along with other Hubbell employees.

Employees hired after December 31, 2003, are not eligible to participate in the DB Plan but may participate in the DC Plan. The Company closed the DB Plan to new employees after 2003 after determining that a plan of this nature was no longer necessary to attract talent. Service credit under the DB Plan ceased effective February 28, 2017, and a subsequent freeze on eligible compensation became effective December 31, 2020. Messrs. Bakker and Mikes are the only NEOs who are participants in the DB Plan.

The DC Plan provides that the Company will make a fully vested annual non-elective Company contribution of 4% of eligible earnings on behalf of all eligible participants, including the NEOs. Additionally, the Company makes a matching contribution equal to 50% of the first 6% of a participant's eligible earnings contributed to the DC Plan, subject to limitations in the Internal Revenue Code. NEOs participate in the DC Plan on the same terms as other employees in the Company.

#### **Non** - **Qualified Supplemental Retirement Plans** 
Certain senior executives of the Company, including the NEOs, are eligible to participate in supplemental retirement plans. Hubbell's Top Hat Restoration Plan ("DB Restoration Plan") and Defined Contribution Restoration Plan ("DC Restoration Plan") are available to DB Plan participants and DC Plan participants, respectively, who earn compensation in excess of Internal Revenue Code limitations applicable to qualified plans.

The DB Restoration Plan is an "excess benefit plan" under which participants in the DB Plan receive additional retirement benefits, calculated in the same manner as benefits are calculated under the DB Plan, but without regard to the applicable limits on compensation or benefit accruals imposed by the tax-qualified plan rules. Messrs. Bakker and Mikes are the only NEOs who are participants in the DB Restoration Plan, and they ceased to accrue benefits under the DB Restoration Plan when the DB Plan was frozen. The DC Restoration Plan, also an "excess benefit plan," enables participants in the DC Plan to receive Company contributions equal to the additional contributions they would have received under the DC Plan, but for the compensation limits imposed by the tax-qualified plan rules.

The DB Restoration Plan and DC Restoration Plan are intended to promote the retention of our eligible senior management employees by providing them with the opportunity to earn pension and retirement benefits that supplement the benefits available under the Company's tax-qualified retirement plans.

#### **Executive Deferred Compensation Plan** 
The Company has a non-qualified Executive Deferred Compensation Plan ("EDCP") that permits senior employees, including our NEOs, to defer the receipt of up to 50% of their base salary and 100% of their short-term incentive award. The EDCP also provides for discretionary contributions by the Company. No Company discretionary contributions were made in 2025. Amounts deferred under the EDCP are credited with earnings reflecting individual investment directions made by each participant. See the "Non-Qualified Deferred Compensation in Fiscal Year 2025" section on page 65.

### Perquisites
In 2025, the Company provided three types of perquisites to the NEOs: limited financial planning and tax preparation services and limited personal travel on the Company aircraft. These perquisites help protect the executives' financial health, provide flexibility to the executives, and increase travel efficiencies, thereby allowing executives to use their time more productively. The Company routinely examines the competitiveness of the perquisites offered in light of the evolving competitive landscape and determines whether any modifications are appropriate. Footnote 6 to the "Summary Compensation Table" on pages 57 and 58 outlines the benefits received by each NEO in 2025.

### Severance and Change in Control Benefits
Hubbell maintains a Policy for Providing Severance to Senior Employees (the "Senior Severance Policy") that generally provides severance to senior management in the event of certain "involuntary" terminations of employment with Hubbell.

It has long been Hubbell's practice to provide Change in Control Severance Agreements ("CIC Agreements") to Board-appointed officers.

The CIC Agreements with the NEOs provide certain alternative severance benefits in the event an NEO's employment is involuntarily or constructively terminated in connection with a change in control. Such severance benefits are designed to alleviate the financial impact of termination of employment by providing continued base salary and health benefits and outplacement services. These benefits enable our executives to evaluate potential transactions without the personal distraction or conflict of interest that could arise from concerns about a potential change in control.

The decision to offer benefits under the Senior Severance Policy and the CIC Agreements does not influence the Compensation Committee's determinations concerning other direct compensation or benefit levels. In making the decision to extend these benefits, the Compensation Committee relied on its independent compensation consultant, Exequity, to ensure that such severance and change in control benefits align with relevant market practice and industry benchmarking. The Compensation Committee periodically reviews Hubbell's CIC Agreements and benchmarks the provisions with Exequity.

2026 PROXY STATEMENT **\|**&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**55**

[Back to Contents](#toc)

The Company's CIC Agreements contain, among other things, the following types and amounts of compensation benefits payable to NEOs upon a change in control:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Double trigger (change in control plus termination of employment) required to obtain cash severance benefit.

• Lump sum cash payments equal to 2.5 times base salary and 2.5 times target bonus for the year in which the change-in-control occurs for Messrs. Bakker and Sperry and 2.0 times base salary and 2.0 times target bonus for the year in which the change-in-control occurs for Messrs. Mikes and Gumbs, and Ms. Lane.

• Lump sum payment of the pro-rated target bonus for the year in which termination occurs.

• Continued insurance benefits and outplacement services.

Upon a change in control, under the terms of the LTI awards, all outstanding awards (other than any portion subject to performance-based vesting) will continue in effect or be assumed or substituted by an acquiring company, unless the Compensation Committee elects to terminate an award or cause it to fully vest. If the acquiring company refuses to assume or substitute an award, the Compensation Committee may exercise its discretion to terminate the award in exchange for cash, rights, or property, or cause the awards to become fully exercisable prior to the change in control. The portion of an LTI award that is subject to performance-based vesting will remain subject to the terms of the award agreement and the Compensation Committee's discretion.

If an LTI award continues in effect or is assumed or substituted, and the grantee's employment is terminated without cause or within twelve months following a change in control, then the award will fully vest as of the date of termination.

For additional information relating to the Company's change in control and severance benefits, including under the CIC Agreements and the Senior Severance Policy, see the "Potential Post-Employment Compensation Arrangements" section on pages 66-70.

### Compensation Committee Report
The Compensation Committee has reviewed the Compensation Discussion and Analysis and discussed its contents with members of the Company's management and its independent compensation consultant, Exequity. Based on this review and discussion, the Compensation Committee has recommended to the Board that the Compensation Discussion and Analysis be included in this Proxy Statement and the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025.

*<sup>(1)</sup>* *Mr. Sperry held the position of Chief Financial Officer until December 31, 2025.*

*<sup>(2)</sup>* *The amount reported in the Bonus column reflects a one-time cash hiring bonus paid to Mr. Gumbs in 2023.*

*<sup>(3)</sup>* *The amounts reported in the Stock Awards and Option Awards columns reflect the aggregate grant date fair value of restricted stock, performance shares, and SARs granted in 2025 as calculated in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 718. For a discussion of the assumptions made in the valuation, see Note 17 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for 2025 in the Form 10-K filed with the SEC on February 12, 2026. The actual value that an executive may realize from an award is contingent upon the satisfaction of the vesting conditions of the award. For SARs, the actual value of the award is based upon the positive difference between the base price and the market value of a share of Hubbell common stock on the date of exercise. Thus, there is no assurance that the value, if any, eventually realized by the NEO will correspond to the amount shown. For performance shares with a Relative Sales Growth performance metric, fair value is based upon the average between the high and low trading prices of Hubbell common stock on the date preceding the grant date and assumes that the award will vest at target.*

*<sup>(4)</sup>* *The amounts reported in the Non-Equity Incentive Plan Compensation column reflect short-term incentive awards earned under the Company's Short-Term Incentive Plan. See the Short-Term Incentive Compensation section on pages 45-49.*

*<sup>(5)</sup>* *The amounts reported in the Change in Pension Value and Nonqualified Deferred Compensation Earnings column reflect the aggregate change in the actuarial present value of each NEO's accumulated benefit under the retirement plans in which they participate. See the "Employee Benefit Programs" section on page 54 and "Non-Qualified Deferred Compensation" section on page 65. The present value of accrued benefits at December 31, 2023 is based on the Pri-2012 Healthy Annuitant Mortality White Collar Tables, sex distinct, with generational projection from 2012 using Scale MP-2021 and using a discount rate of 5.20%. The present value of accrued benefits at December 31, 2024 is based on the Pri-2012 Healthy Annuitant Mortality Tables, with generational projection from 2012 using Scale MP-2021 and using a discount rate of 5.60%. The present value of accrued benefits at December 31, 2025 is based on the Pri-2012 Healthy Annuitant Mortality Tables, with generational projection from 2012 using Scale MP-2021 and using a discount rate of 5.50%. Participants are assumed to retire at age 62 or current age, if later. No amounts accumulated under the Company's EDCP and DC Restoration Plan earn above market or preferential earnings; therefore, no earnings are included in this column.*

*<sup>(6)</sup>* *The amounts reported in the All Other Compensation column for 2025 are detailed in the following table:*

*<sup>(2)</sup>* *The amounts reported in the Estimated Future Payouts Under Equity Incentive Plan Awards columns reflect the target number of performance shares ("PS") awarded to the NEOs under the Equity Plan on February 18, 2025, and the threshold and maximum number of performance shares that may be earned. Performance shares are earned on three measures: (i) Relative Sales Growth ("RSG"), (ii) Adjusted Operating Profit Margin ("OPM"), and (iii) Relative Total Shareholder Return ("TSR"). The actual number of performance shares earned will be determined at the end of a three-year period. See the "Performance Share Awards" section on page 50.*

*<sup>(3)</sup>* *The amounts reported in the All Other Stock Awards and All Other Option Awards columns reflect the number of shares of Restricted Stock ("RS") and Stock Appreciation Rights ("SARs") awarded under the Equity Plan on February 18, 2025. SARs are subject to vesting in three equal annual installments on the anniversary of the grant date. Upon retirement, RS will vest in full. SARs and RS become fully vested upon death or disability.*

*<sup>(4)</sup>* *The amount reported in the Exercise or Base Price of Option Awards column reflects the mean between the high and low trading prices of Hubbell common stock on the trading day immediately preceding the date of grant, which was the fair market value of such stock as defined under the Equity Plan.*

*<sup>(5)</sup>* *The amounts reported in the Grant Date Fair Value of Stock and Option Awards column reflect the aggregate fair value of the RS and SARs granted to each NEO on February 18, 2025, based upon the probable outcome of performance conditions, as applicable, and disclosed in Note 17 within the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements in the Company's 2025 Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on February 12, 2026.*

### Equity Award Grant Practices
Hubbell's Compensation Committee follows a comprehensive process for granting equity awards, including with respect to the timing of such awards. The Compensation Committee's practice is to grant all equity awards, including SARS, on a predetermined schedule. In the first quarter of any new fiscal year, typically in February, the Compensation Committee approves, after review and benchmarking with its outside compensation consultant, Exequity, the executive compensation program design, including the value and amount of the SARs to be awarded to executive officers. We have not timed the disclosure of material non-public information for the purposes of affecting the value of executive compensation. We currently grant SARs for a fiscal year outside of the period that is four business days before to one business day after the filing of Hubbell's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year, or the filing of any of the Company's Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, or the filing or furnishing of any Current Report on Form 8-K that discloses material nonpublic information. In certain circumstances, including the hiring or promotion of an officer, the Compensation Committee may approve grants to be effective at other times. These "off cycle" awards are granted only on a limited basis. During fiscal 2025, we did not grant any stock options (or similar awards), including SARs, to any of our Named Executive Officers during any period beginning four business days before and ending one business day after the filing of any periodic report on Form 10-Q or Form 10-K, or the filing or furnishing of any Form 8-K that disclosed any material non-public information.

### Pension Benefits in Fiscal Year 2025
The following table provides information on the retirement benefits for the NEOs who participate in the Company's DB Plan and DB Restoration Plan. See the "Employee Benefit Programs" section on page 54.

| **MARK E. MIKES** | DB Plan | 27.67 | 946827 |  |
|  | DB Restoration Plan | 27.67 | 1201760 |  |

---

*<sup>(1)</sup>* *For the DB Plan and the DB Restoration Plan, the present value of accrued benefits at December 31, 2025, is determined based on the Pri-2012 Healthy Annuitant Mortality Tables, with generational projection from 2012 using Scale MP-2021 and using a discount rate of 5.50%. Participants are assumed to retire at age 62 or current age, if later.*

### Pension Benefit Calculations
The following paragraphs describe the manner in which benefits are calculated under each of the Company's retirement plans.

#### **DB Plan and DB Restoration Plan** 
The DB Plan provides for participation by all regular full-time salaried employees (other than employees subject to a collective-bargaining agreement) who were employed by covered Company businesses on December 31, 2003, including Messrs. Bakker and Mikes.

For certain participants hired before January 1, 2004, including Messrs. Bakker and Mikes, the annual benefits under the DB Plan upon normal retirement (age 65) are calculated under the formula shown below. The term "Final Average Pay" refers to the average of the applicable employee's highest three consecutive years' earnings (base salary and short-term incentives) in the last ten years.

![](lhubb2026x70x1.jpg)

Benefits under the DB Restoration Plan are calculated in the same manner as benefits under the DB Plan, but without regard to any limits on compensation or benefit accruals that may apply under the DB Plan, as required by the tax-qualified plan rules. DB Restoration Plan benefits generally are payable based on a life annuity distribution (although 50% of the benefits are payable to the participant's surviving spouse if the participant dies after commencing benefits). However, benefits are paid out as a lump sum if an active employee participant as of the date of a change in control experiences a termination of employment within two years following the change in control.

Beginning in 2017, the DB Plan began a transition to being fully frozen. Years of Service was frozen under the DB Plan and the DB Restoration Plan effective February 28, 2017, and Final Average Pay, Social Security Covered Compensation, and Social Security Benefit was frozen under the DB Plan and the DB Restoration Plan effective December 31, 2020.

#### **DC Plan and DC Restoration Plan** 
As described under the "Employee Benefit Programs" section on page 54, the DC Plan provides eligible participants with a fixed non-elective contribution of 4% of eligible earnings and a matching contribution equal to 50% of the first 6% of eligible earnings that the employee voluntarily contributes to the DC Plan.

The Company also provides a DC Restoration Plan to allow for excess contributions on behalf of those employees whose contributions are limited under the tax-qualified DC Plan due to compensation limits imposed by the IRS.

The DC Restoration Plan provides each participant impacted by those limitations with (i) an annual non-elective contribution equal to the excess of 4% of eligible earnings over the amount credited as a safe harbor non-elective contribution to the DC Plan for that year and (ii) an annual matching contribution equal to 50% of the first 6% of the participant's eligible earnings that are voluntarily contributed to the DC Plan and/or deferred to the Executive Deferred Compensation Plan less the maximum amount of matching contributions that could have been credited under the DC Plan if the participant had contributed the maximum permissible amount under that plan for the year.

### Non-Qualified Deferred Compensation

#### **Executive Deferred Compensation Plan** 
The EDCP enables certain designated senior executives (including the NEOs) to defer up to 50% of their annual base salary and up to 100% of their annual short-term incentive compensation. Amounts deferred under the EDCP are nominally invested at the discretion of the participant in the same mutual funds available to all employees in the DC Plan, and all participants are immediately 100% vested in the amounts they elect to defer. The Company is permitted to make discretionary contributions to EDCP participants and to make contributions subject to vesting conditions or other restrictions.

Participants are generally required to make their deferral elections by December 31 of the year prior to the year in which the base pay is paid and the deferred short-term incentive award is earned. When they make deferral elections, participants also elect the future date for distributions. Distributions can be made at any time while the participant remains an employee (but no sooner than two years after the year for which the deferral is made) or upon separation from service or a change in control. Distributions upon separation from service may be made in a lump sum or installments over 5, 10, or 15 years. In-service distributions and distributions upon a change in control are made in a lump sum. Participants may also access their accounts under the EDCP in the event of an unforeseen emergency.

#### **Non-Qualified Deferred Compensation in Fiscal Year 2025** 
The following table provides information on the benefits earned by each NEO under the Company's EDCP and DC Restoration Plan.

### Potential Post-Employment Compensation Arrangements
Hubbell does not have employment agreements with any of the NEOs. We offer post-employment compensation and benefits to the NEOs under the Senior Severance Policy (which is available to senior level employees in addition to NEOs), retirement plans, and individual CIC Agreements that provide compensation and benefits only in the event of certain terminations in connection with a change in control (as defined in the CIC Agreements). In addition, NEOs may be entitled to post-termination compensation and benefits under the terms of the Company's Equity Plan, STI program, and other benefit plans. The section below describes the types of compensation and benefits an NEO is eligible to receive under these plans, policies, and agreements based on five termination scenarios: (i) involuntary termination; (ii) death; (iii) disability; (iv) retirement; and (v) following a change in control and involuntary termination. The NEOs generally will receive only vested amounts under the Company's plans upon voluntary termination or termination for cause.

#### **Senior Severance Policy** 
The Senior Severance Policy offers the following benefits to NEOs:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• 4 weeks base salary continuation for each year of service, with a minimum of 26
 weeks and a maximum of 78 weeks.

• Continued medical, dental, and life insurance benefits for the salary continuation period.

• Pro-rated portion of their target short-term incentive award earned through the date of termination.

• Outplacement services for up to 12 months.

Involuntary termination includes, for purposes of the Senior Severance Policy, a termination by the Company without cause and a resignation by the NEO due to a material change in the NEO's authority, duties, responsibilities, or base compensation, or a significant change in the NEO's employment location. In the event of a change in control followed by an involuntary termination, in lieu of any benefits under the Senior Severance Policy, an NEO would be eligible for severance benefits pursuant to the terms of his or her CIC Agreement.

#### **Equity Plan** 
NEOs received grants under the Equity Plan in 2025. The treatment of outstanding equity awards upon involuntary termination (i.e., termination by the Company without cause), retirement, and death and disability is set forth in the Post-Employment and Change in Control Payment table on pages 69-70.

Upon a change in control (as defined in the Equity Plan), outstanding awards under the Equity Plan do not automatically vest and become payable. Instead, awards that are not assumed by the acquiring company may vest in the discretion of the Compensation Committee.

**Post**-**Termination Vesting Terms for Equity Plan Grants**

The following table shows the vesting provisions of equity awards termination under the scenarios shown.

---

| | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|
| **Award Type** | **Involuntary Termination** | **Retirement<sup>(1)</sup>** | **Death/Disability** |
| Performance Shares (PS) | Unvested shares forfeited | Eligible for a pro-rata portion of shares (to the extent earned) based on the number of months the NEO served during the performance period. | Target number of shares fully vest |
| RS (time-based) | Unvested shares forfeited | Unvested shares fully vest | Unvested shares fully vest |
| SARs | Unvested SARs forfeited. May exercise vested SARs until the earlier of 90 days after the termination date or the 10th anniversary of the grant date. | Unvested SARs continue to vest in the normal course. Vested SARs exercisable until the 10th anniversary of the grant date. | Unvested SARs fully vest. Following disability termination, vested SARs are exercisable for the earlier of 90 days after the termination date or the 10th anniversary of the grant date. Upon death (or if the NEO dies within 90 days of termination due to disability or retirement) SARs are exercisable for the earlier of one year after death or the 10th anniversary of the grant date. |

---

*<sup>(1)</sup>* *Retirement means that the NEO has terminated employment with the Company, is at a minimum age of 55, and the executive's age plus years of service with the Company equals or exceeds 70.*

| **Change in Control** | **Change in Control and Involuntary Termination** |
| Unless otherwise determined by the Compensation Committee, unvested time-based RS and SARs will be assumed by the acquirer and continue to vest. Treatment of unvested PS is subject to discretion of the Compensation Committee. | Unvested awards fully vest only if the NEO is involuntarily terminated without cause within 12 months following a change in control. |

#### **Change in Control Severance Agreements** 
Each of our NEOs is a party to a CIC Agreement that provides severance benefits in the event of a termination of employment by the executive for good reason or by the Company (other than for cause or due to the executive's death, disability or retirement) within two years after a change in control or, in certain circumstances, in anticipation of a change in control. CIC Agreements are only granted to officers, and only with the approval of the Board of Directors upon the recommendation of the Compensation Committee. The Compensation Committee and the Board intend for these agreements to foster a stable work environment by reinforcing and encouraging executives' continued attention and dedication to job responsibilities without the personal distraction or conflict of interest that could arise from concerns about a potential change in control.

A "change in control" is generally defined as a change in the majority of the Company's Board of Directors during any 12-month period, the acquisition by a party directly or indirectly of 30% or more of the voting power of the Company during any 12-month period, a sale of substantially all of the Company's assets, or the acquisition by a party of more than 50% of either the voting power of the Company or the fair market value of the Company.

In the event of a change in control, the benefits provided to the NEOs under their CIC Agreements are as follows:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• A lump sum payment of the NEO's base salary multiplied by 2.5 for Messrs.
 Bakker and Sperry and 2.0 for Messrs. Mikes and Gumbs, and Ms. Lane.

• Continued medical, dental, vision, and life insurance benefits after termination for 2.5 years
 for Messrs. Bakker and Sperry and 2 years for Messrs. Mikes and Gumbs, and Ms. Lane.

• A lump sum payment of the target short-term incentive award for the year in which the change
 in control occurs multiplied by 2.5 for Messrs. Bakker and Sperry and 2.0 for Messrs. Mikes and Gumbs, and Ms. Lane.

• A lump sum payment of the pro-rated portion of their target annual short-term incentive award
 for the year in which the termination occurs.

• The incremental value of additional age and service credit under all applicable supplemental
 plans (subject to the terms of each plan freeze) payable as a lump sum.

• Outplacement services up to 12 months following termination at a cost not to exceed the lesser
 of 15% of the NEO's annual base salary or $50,000.

The CIC Agreements provide that the severance multiple will be reduced in monthly increments over the two-year period following the NEO's 63rd birthday until it is equivalent to the executive's base salary and average short-term incentive award. The CIC Agreements also provide that if an executive would have otherwise incurred excise taxes under Section 4999 of the Code, the benefits under the CIC Agreement may be reduced to the "safe harbor amount" so that no excise taxes would be due, if such reduction would result in the executive being in a better net after-tax position. The CIC Agreements do not provide for any tax gross-up; executives would be required to pay any excise taxes due under Section 4999 of the Code.

The Company has established a grantor trust to secure the benefits to be provided under the CIC Agreements, the non-qualified supplemental retirement plans, and other plans maintained by the Company for the benefit of senior management.

For additional information relating to change in control benefits, see the Severance and Change in Control Benefits section on pages 55-56.

#### **Employment Agreements with Named Executive Officers** 
The Company does not have employment agreements with any of the NEOs.

#### **DB Restoration Plan and DC Restoration Plan** 
Under the terms of the DB Restoration Plan, upon a termination of employment due to disability, a participant is entitled to an unreduced immediate pension benefit based upon such participant's service as of the date service was frozen under each plan (February 28, 2017, for the DB Restoration Plan).

Among other provisions, the DB Restoration Plan provides for the (i) suspension, reduction, or termination of benefits in cases of gross misconduct by a participant; (ii) forfeiture of benefits if a retired participant engages in certain competitive activities; and (iii) reduction in benefits upon early retirement. However, after a change of control, a participant's years of service with the Company (as calculated for the purpose of determining eligibility for the DB Restoration Plan benefits) and benefits accrued prior to the change in control event may not be reduced. If a participant's employment is terminated within 2 years after a change in control, the participant will receive payment of DB Restoration Plan benefits in one lump sum within 10 days after termination.

All amounts owed under the DC Restoration Plan are paid in a lump sum within 60 days following a change in control.

As described above, the CIC Agreements also provide for additional incremental benefits based on age and service credit, to the extent applicable, under the supplemental plans upon qualifying terminations of employment in connection with a change in control.

#### **Potential Payments** 
The following table reflects the estimated incremental post-termination amounts that would have been payable to each NEO on December 31, 2025, in the event of death, disability, involuntary termination without cause, retirement, or a change in control combined with an involuntary termination. No benefits are provided to an NEO upon a change in control unless such officer also experiences a qualifying termination. The amounts in the table are calculated in accordance with the terms of the applicable plans, policies, and agreements described above and assume that the NEO has met the applicable eligibility requirements. The amounts in the table do not include (i) any value that would be realized upon the exercise of vested SARs or settlement of vested Performance Shares or RS to the extent the awards were vested prior to December 31, 2025, by their terms, or (ii) the estimated value of vested and accrued pension benefits that would be received upon any termination of employment under the terms of the Company's retirement plans.

*<sup>(1)</sup>* *The amounts reported in the Severance column reflect base salary entitlements under the Senior Severance Policy and base salary and bonus entitlements under each NEO's CIC Agreement. In addition, Severance includes a pro rata portion of the NEO's target bonus through the date of termination.*

2026 PROXY STATEMENT **\|**&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**69**

[Back to Contents](#toc)

*<sup>(2)</sup>* *The amounts reported in the Equity Awards with Accelerated Vesting column reflect the value realized by the NEO upon the exercise of all unvested SARs and the vesting of all unvested RS and PS that would vest upon death, disability, or a qualifying change in control. Upon a change in control, if the unvested RS and SARs are assumed by the acquirer and an NEO is terminated without cause within two years of such change in control, such awards will become fully vested prior to the date of termination. If the NEO is not terminated without cause within one year of the change in control, such equity awards will not accelerate. Treatment of unvested PS upon a change in control is subject to the discretion of the Compensation Committee.*

*<sup>(3)</sup>* *For Messrs. Bakker, Sperry, and Mikes, who meet the definition of retirement eligibility, the amounts shown reflect the value realized upon the vesting of all unvested restricted shares upon retirement. No other NEO will be retirement-eligible during the open vesting period of outstanding equity awards. The value realized is calculated using the closing market price of Hubbell common stock on December 31, 2025, the last business day of 2025, of $444.11. The amounts shown do not include the value of (i) SARs that are unvested at retirement, but become exercisable post-retirement, or (ii) outstanding performance shares at retirement, which may vest on a pro-rated basis at the end of the applicable performance period, because in each case the value would not be determinable as of the last day of the calendar year as the shares would not have vested on such date.*

*<sup>(4)</sup>* *The amounts reported in the Pension Benefits column include amounts payable under the Company's qualified and nonqualified pension plans and nonqualified deferred compensation plans only to the extent the amounts are not described in the Pension Benefit Calculations section discussed above on page 64 or the Non-Qualified Deferred Compensation section discussed on page 65. In the event of a Change in Control, even without termination of employment, EDCP distributions will be paid in a lump sum, but no additional value is allocated to the payment in this table. The value listed represents the present value of the payments under the EDCP in the Non-Qualified Deferred Compensation section discussed above on page 65.*

*<sup>(5)</sup>* *The amounts reported in the Welfare Benefits column include the payment of outplacement services for the NEOs for up to twelve months and insurance benefit continuation calculated in accordance with the terms of the Senior Severance Policy and CIC Agreements, as applicable.*

*<sup>(6)</sup>* *The amounts reported in the "Disability" rows are calculated based on a 5.5% discount rate and using the PRI-2012 Disabled Annuitant Mortality Tables, with generational projection from 2012 using Scale MP-2021. In the event of disability, the incremental retirement plan benefit was calculated by comparing the disability benefit to the vested accrued benefit under the qualified and non-qualified plans as of December 31, 2025.*

*<sup>(7)</sup>* *"Involuntary Termination," for purposes of this row, refers to a termination by the Company without cause as described in the Senior Severance Policy prior to the occurrence of a Change in Control. NEOs are not entitled to these benefits in the event of a termination for cause, death, or disability.*

*<sup>(8)</sup>* *"Retirement," for purposes of this row, refers to a voluntary termination by the NEO (after age 55 and 15 years of service). In addition to the amounts described in this chart, the NEO will be entitled to payout of the amounts described under the Pension Benefit Calculations section discussed on page 64.*

*<sup>(9)</sup>* *The amounts reported in the Severance column for Change in Control and Involuntary Termination are equal to the product of (a) a multiple specified in each NEO's CIC Agreement and (b) the sum of (x) the NEO's base salary and (y) the target bonus payable to the NEO in the year which the change in control occurs. The specified multiple may be reduced pursuant to the CIC Agreements, as discussed further in the "Change in Control Severance Agreements" section above. In addition, Severance includes a pro rata portion of the NEO's target bonus through the date of termination.*

*<sup>(10)</sup>* *"Change in Control and Involuntary Termination," for purposes of this row, refers to a termination by the Company without cause (as defined in the CIC Agreement) or by the NEO for good reason (as defined in the CIC Agreement) within 2 years following a change in control (as defined in the CIC Agreement). As noted above, the amounts payable include a lump sum payment of the NEO's base salary multiplied by 2.5 for Messrs. Bakker and Sperry and 2.0 for Messrs. Mikes and Gumbs, and Ms. Lane.*

*<sup>(11)</sup>* *No benefits are automatically payable to the NEOs upon a change in control (as defined in the Equity Plan) due to their unvested RS and SARs until and unless the NEO experiences a qualifying termination related to such change in control. This row assumes such a qualifying termination (a termination by the Company without cause) occurs within 12 months following a change in control. Treatment of unvested PS upon a change in control is subject to the discretion of the Compensation Committee.*

## **CEO Pay Ratio** 
The SEC requires annual disclosure of the ratio of the CEO's annual total compensation to the annual total compensation of the Company's median employee.

Mr. Bakker had 2025 annual total compensation of $10,346,752 as reflected in the "Total" column reported in the Summary Compensation Table on page 57. Hubbell's median employee's annual total compensation for 2025, as described more fully below, was estimated as $64,210. As a result, we estimate that Mr. Bakker's annual compensation was approximately 161 times that of Hubbell's median employee.

There have not been any significant changes to our employee base, our compensation program or our median employee's situation that would significantly affect our pay ratio disclosure. Accordingly, as permitted by SEC rules, we calculated the 2025 pay ratio using the same median employee we used for purposes of calculating our 2024 pay ratio. What follows is a description of the methodology used from 2024. Pursuant to Instruction 7 to Item 402(u), Hubbell is omitting from its pay ratio calculation those employees that became employees of the Company in 2025 as a result of the Alliance USAcqCo 2, Inc. ("Ventev"), Nicor, Inc., and Power Rose Acquisition, Inc. ("Power Rose" and together with its subsidiaries, "DMC Power") acquisitions which aggregated to 457 of Hubbell's approximately 18,000 employees as of December 31, 2025.

In 2024, we identified the median of the annual total compensation of all our employees by examining the 2024 annual salary for all employees, excluding the CEO, who were employed by us on November 15, 2024, as reflected in our payroll records as reported to the Internal Revenue Service on Form W-2 for 2024, as well as our payroll records for all non-U.S. entities. We selected November 15, 2024, because it enabled us to make such identification in a reasonably efficient and economical manner. We did not make any assumptions, adjustments, or estimates with respect to this compensation measure and we did not annualize the compensation for any full-time employees who were not employed by Hubbell for all of 2024.

We calculated annual total compensation for 2025 for such employee in accordance with SEC rules using the same employee as identified for 2024.

SEC rules permit companies to rely on a range of estimates, assumptions, adjustments, and statistical sampling when preparing their pay ratio disclosures. As a result, these disclosures involve a degree of imprecision. Our pay ratio is merely a reasonable estimate calculated in a manner consistent with SEC rules, and it may not be comparable to the pay ratio disclosures of other companies.

**Proposal 3** Ratification of the Selection of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm<br>

The Audit Committee of the Board of Directors, which consists entirely of independent Directors, is responsible for the appointment, compensation, retention, evaluation, and termination of the Company's independent registered public accounting firm (independent auditor).

The Audit Committee has appointed PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP as the Company's independent auditor for 2026. PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP has served as the Company's independent auditors since at least 1961. The Audit Committee periodically considers whether there should be a regular rotation of the independent auditor. The Audit Committee and Hubbell's Board of Directors believe that the continued retention of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP to serve as the Company's independent external audit firm for 2026 is in the best interests of the Company and its shareholders.

The Audit Committee engages in an annual evaluation of the independent auditor's qualifications, performance, and independence. In addition, the Audit Committee regularly meets with the lead audit partner without members of management present, which provides the opportunity for continuous assessment of the independent auditor's effectiveness and independence and for consideration of rotating audit firms.

In accordance with SEC rules, the independent auditor's lead engagement partner rotates every five years. The Audit Committee is directly involved in the selection of the independent auditor's lead engagement partner.

A representative of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP will attend the 2026 Annual Meeting of Shareholders to respond to appropriate questions and, if desired, to make a statement.

Although ratification of our selection of independent auditors is not required, we value the opinions of our shareholders and wish to submit the matter to a vote at the 2026 Annual Meeting as a matter of sound corporate governance. In the event the selection of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP is not ratified by the shareholders, the Audit Committee will reconsider the selection of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP as the Company's independent auditor. Even if the selection of independent auditors is ratified, the Audit Committee retains the discretion to select a different independent auditor at any time if it determines that such a change would be in the best interests of the Company and our shareholders.

The affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast by the holders of Hubbell common stock is required to ratify the selection of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP as the Company's independent registered public accounting firm. This means that the number of votes cast "FOR" the proposal must exceed the number of votes cast "AGAINST" the proposal. Abstentions and broker non-votes are not considered to be votes cast and therefore will not affect the voting results. Brokers have the discretionary authority to vote on the ratification of auditors and therefore we do not expect any broker non-votes in connection with this proposal.

## **Independent Accounting Firm Fees** 
PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP provided the following audit and other services during 2024 and 2025.

---

| | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|
|  | **2024** | **2025** |  |
| Audit Fees | $4605000 | $4835000 | Audit Fees consist primarily of the annual integrated audit of the Company's annual consolidated financial statements and internal control over financial reporting, review of the interim consolidated financial statements included in quarterly reports, and services that are normally provided by PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP in connection with statutory and regulatory filings or engagements. |
| Audit Related Fees | $32000 | $107000 | Audit Related Fees consist primarily of accounting advisory services. In addition, Audit Related Fees include assurance and related services that are reasonably related to performance of the audit of the Company's consolidated financial statements and are not reported under Audit Fees. |
| Tax Fees | $25000 |  | Tax Fees consist primarily of services associated with international tax compliance. |
| All Other Fees | $4000 | $3825 | All Other Fees are primarily for products and services other than the services reported above. These services are related to subscription services purchased from the independent registered public accounting firm. |
| **TOTAL FEES** | $**4666000** | $**4945825** |  |

---

## **Audit and Non-Audit Services Pre-Approval Policy** 
The Company's Audit and Non-Audit Services Pre-Approval Policy (the "Services Policy") sets forth the policies and procedures by which the Audit Committee reviews and approves all services to be provided by the independent auditors before they are engaged. The Services Policy underscores the need to ensure the independence of the independent auditor while recognizing that the independent auditor may have expertise that best positions it to provide the most effective and efficient services on certain matters unrelated to accounting and auditing.

The Audit Committee will only pre-approve the services that it believes enhance the Company's ability to manage or control risk. The Audit Committee is also mindful of the relationship between fees for audit and non-audit services in deciding whether to pre-approve any such services. The Services Policy provides the Audit Committee with a description of services that can be performed such as audit, audit-related, tax, and other permissible non-audit services. The Audit Committee periodically monitors the services rendered and actual fees paid to the independent auditors and considers whether such services are consistent with SEC rules and regulations on auditor independence. Any proposed services exceeding pre-approved amounts also require pre-approval by the Audit Committee. In the interim periods between Audit Committee meetings, the Chair of the Audit Committee can authorize spending that exceeds pre-approved levels, provided that the amount of such spending is presented to the Committee at its next scheduled meeting.

During 2025, all audit services, audit-related services, and other services provided by PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP were pre-approved by the Audit Committee.

## **Audit Committee Report** 
The Audit Committee of the Board of Directors is made up of independent Directors functioning in accordance with a written charter last revised, adopted, and approved by the Board of Directors effective May 7, 2024. The Audit Committee reviews its charter annually. As provided in its charter, the Audit Committee assists the Company's Directors in fulfilling their responsibilities relating to corporate accounting, the quality and integrity of the Company's financial reports, and the Company's reporting practices. The functions of the Audit Committee are further described in the "Corporate Governance" section beginning on page 23.

In connection with the discharge of its responsibilities, the Audit Committee has taken a number of actions, including, the following:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• The Audit Committee reviewed and discussed
 with management and the independent registered public accounting firm the Company's audited financial statements.

• The Audit Committee discussed with the independent
 registered public accounting firm the matters required to be discussed per applicable requirements of the Public Company Accounting
 Oversight Board and the SEC.

• The Audit Committee received from the independent
 registered public accounting firm the written disclosures and letter required by applicable requirements of the Public Company
 Accounting Oversight Board regarding the independent registered public accounting firm's communications with the Audit
 Committee concerning independence, discussed their independence with them, and satisfied itself as to the independence of
 the independent registered public accounting firm.

Based on the foregoing reviews and discussions, the Audit Committee recommended to the Company's Board of Directors that the audited financial statements be included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025, filed with the SEC.

### Stock Ownership of Directors and Executive Officers
**Our Directors and officers have stock ownership requirements that align their interests with our shareholders.**

Our Corporate Governance Guidelines require every Director to own Company stock equal in value to five times their annual base cash retainer. Directors have until the fifth anniversary of the date on which they receive their first annual restricted share grant to satisfy this requirement. Directors who do not meet the ownership minimum must retain all Company shares they directly or indirectly obtain. **All Directors satisfy the ownership requirements**.

The section entitled "Stock Ownership and Retention Policy" on page 53 details stock ownership and retention requirements for the NEOs and executive officers of the Company. The Guidelines and the Stock Ownership Policy can both be viewed on the Company's website at **www.hubbell.com**. The reference to our website address does not constitute incorporation by reference of the information contained on the website, and such information is not a part of this Proxy Statement.

**All executive officers, including all current NEOs, are in compliance with the Stock Ownership Policy.** 

The following table sets forth as of March 6, 2026, information regarding the beneficial ownership of Hubbell common stock by each Director, each of the NEOs, and by all Directors and current executive officers of the Company as a group.

## **Delinquent Section 16(a) Reports** 
Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, requires our Directors, executive officers, and persons who own more than 10% of a registered class of our equity securities, to file with the SEC initial reports of ownership and reports of changes in ownership of common stock and other equity securities of our Company. Officers, Directors and greater than 10% shareholders are required by SEC regulations to furnish us with copies of all Section 16(a) forms they file.

Based solely on the Company's review of these reports and executive officer and Director certifications, the Company believes that all Section 16(a) filing requirements applicable to its Directors, executive officers and 10% shareholders were complied with during 2025, except for one late Form 4 report relating to a single transaction by Director John Malloy.

## **Compensation Committee Interlocks and Insider Participation** 
Throughout 2025, no member of the Compensation Committee was an employee, officer, or former officer of the Company, or had any relationship requiring disclosure under Item 407 of Regulation S-K. None of our executive officers served on the board or compensation committee of any entity in 2025 that had an executive officer serving as a member of our Board of Directors or Compensation Committee.

## **Review and Approval of Related Person Transactions** 
The Board of Directors has adopted a written related person transaction policy. The NCGC administers the policy, which applies to all transactions where the amount exceeds $100,000 and in which the Company is or will be a participant on one side and a related person is or will be a participant or has, or will have, a direct or indirect material interest on the other side. A related person includes any person who is or was since the beginning of the last fiscal year a Director, executive officer, nominee for Director, or beneficial owner of more than 5% of Hubbell common stock, or any of such person's immediate family members. The NCGC will determine, based on the facts and circumstances it deems appropriate, whether such related person transaction should be approved. As required under SEC rules, transactions that are determined to be directly or indirectly material to the Company or a related person are disclosed in the Company's Proxy Statement. For fiscal year 2025, the Company had no related person transactions that were required to be disclosed under Item 404 of Regulation S-K. See the discussion under "Director Independence" on page 25.

## **Revocation of Proxy** 
You may revoke your proxy at any time before the Annual Meeting by any of the following methods:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Delivering to the Secretary of the Company written instructions revoking your proxy;

• Delivering an executed proxy bearing a later date than your prior voted proxy; or

• If you voted by Internet or telephone, by recording a different vote on the Internet website or by telephone.

If you hold your shares in street name, you must follow the instructions of your broker, bank, or other nominee to revoke your voting instructions.

## **Eliminating Duplicative Proxy Materials ("Householding")** 
A single annual report and proxy statement or Notice of Internet Availability of proxy materials may be delivered to multiple shareholders who share an address unless one of the affected shareholders has given contrary instructions. This is known as "householding," and it helps us reduce the cost and environmental impact of printing and mailing our proxy materials. If at any time a shareholder no longer wishes to participate in "householding" and would prefer to receive such shareholder's own copy of our proxy materials-either now or in the future-or if at any time shareholders who share an address and receive separate copies of our proxy materials would like to receive a single copy of these documents in the future, such shareholder or shareholders may (1) notify their broker or (2) direct their written or oral request to our transfer agent, Computershare, via regular mail to Computershare, PO Box 43078, Providence, RI 02940-3078, or by phone, toll-free at 800-874-1136. Our transfer agent will promptly comply with any such request.

## **Availability of Annual Report on Form 10-K** 
Copies of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025 (without exhibits or documents incorporated by reference therein) will be sent without charge to shareholders upon written request to Hubbell Incorporated c/o Katherine A. Lane, Executive Vice President, General Counsel and Secretary, 40 Waterview Drive, Shelton, Connecticut 06484, or by calling (475) 882-4000, by first class mail or other equally prompt means promptly after receipt of such request. Our Annual Report is also available on the Investor Relations page of our website, **www.hubbell.com**. The reference to our website address does not constitute incorporation by reference of the information contained on the website, and such information is not a part of this Proxy Statement.
