SUPPLEMENT TO PROXY STATEMENT
FOR THE ANNUAL MEETING OF SHAREHOLDERS
To be Held on May 11, 2021
This proxy statement supplement, dated April 28, 2021 (the “Supplement”), supplements and amends the definitive proxy statement (the “Proxy Statement”) filed on March 30, 2021 by PNM Resources, Inc. (the “Company”) with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) relating to the annual meeting of shareholders of the Company to be held on Tuesday, May 11, 2021 at 9:00 a.m. M.D.T through a remote communication in a virtual meeting format (the “Annual Meeting”). This Supplement is being filed to correct an administrative error in the Proxy Statement that resulted in overstating the amount of Company Contributions to the Executive Savings Plan II (“ESP II”) received by two of our named executive officers in 2020.
The Proxy Statement overstated the amount of Company contributions to the respective ESP II accounts of Patricia K. Collawn, our President and Chief Executive Officer, and Ronald N. Darnell, our Senior Vice President, Public Policy, by $1,149,700 for the CEO and $83,200 for Mr. Darnell. Accordingly, the Summary Compensation Table (“SCT”) on page 52 of the Proxy Statement, the All Other Compensation Table in footnote 7 to the SCT on page 53 of the Proxy Statement, and the 2020 Non-Qualified Deferred Compensation and ESPII Company Contributions tables on page 63 of the Proxy Statement are corrected as follows to reflect the actual amounts of ESP II Company contributions received in 2020 by Ms. Collawn and Mr. Darnell:

In addition, the CEO pay ratio reported on page 60 of the Proxy Statement is hereby corrected to reflect the actual amount of compensation received by Ms. Collawn in 2020 and reported above in the corrected SCT. As a result of the process described on pages 59-60 of the Proxy Statement under the caption CEO Pay Ratio, the CEO pay ratio was 66:1 in 2020, meaning that the CEO’s total compensation for the year ending December 31, 2020 was approximately 66 times the total compensation paid to the Company’s median employee in 2020.
