IRVING, Texas — Aug. 9, 2023 — Vistra Corp. (NYSE: VST) (“Vistra”) today reported its second quarter 2023 financial results and other highlights.
“I’m excited to report our second quarter results today of $1,008 million in Ongoing Operations Adjusted EBITDA. Our focus and execution on operational excellence, risk management, and strong retail performance demonstrated an integrated platform that is bolstering Vistra’s elevated and de-risked earnings profile and delivering substantial value to our shareholders through our robust return of capital program,” said Jim Burke, president and CEO of Vistra. “Our performance year-to-date and the projections we see for the balance of 2023 provide confidence that we will achieve results that are in the upper half of our original guidance ranges initiated for 2023 Ongoing Operations Adjusted EBITDA and Ongoing Operations Adjusted FCFbG. Given this increased confidence, we announced narrowed guidance ranges today that adjust the lower end of the ranges upward by $200 million in the case of Ongoing Operations Adjusted EBITDA and $150 million in the case of Ongoing Operations Adjusted FCFbG. As we capitalize on the elevated earnings opportunities, we in turn are realizing additional free cash flows that we look forward to using to further our growth and bolster shareholder returns.”

Burke continued, “As we steadily deliver on our capital allocation program, we simultaneously are focused on the long-term energy transition this industry faces. We remain committed to disciplined growth of our zero-carbon portfolio while focusing on grid reliability. The 350-megawatt Phase III expansion of our Moss Landing Energy Storage Facility achieved commercial operation during the second quarter, ahead of schedule and on budget, bringing our Vistra Zero portfolio currently online to approximately 3,750 MW, including our nuclear facility Comanche Peak. We also continue to progress towards a fourth quarter closing of the acquisition of Energy Harbor Corp. that we announced earlier this year, which will increase our nuclear generation to more than 6,400 MW.”
Burke concluded, “Our retail segment continues to deliver strong counts and margins performance. And, while the second quarter weather was on the milder side, we are seeing extreme heat in parts of the country, particularly in July and August. Our generation fleet has risen to the challenge, achieving approximately 95% commercial availability in the second quarter, and we look forward to continuing that operational excellence through the balance of the year and beyond.”

For the three months ended June 30, 2023, Vistra reported Net Income of $476 million, Net Income from Ongoing Operations of $409 million, and Ongoing Operations Adjusted EBITDA of $1,008 million. Vistra’s Net Income for the second quarter 2023 was an improvement of $1,833 million over the second quarter 2022 Net Loss, driven primarily by unrealized net hedging gains in the three months ended June 30, 2023, as compared to the unrealized net hedging losses in the three months ended June 30, 2022. Ongoing Operations Adjusted EBITDA for the second quarter 2023 was $252 million higher than the second quarter 2022, driven primarily by higher energy margins achieved through our comprehensive hedging strategy, backing down generation at times when prices were below unit costs and strong counts and margin performance in the retail segment, partially offset by less favorable weather in the quarter.
Guidance
| ($ in millions) | Narrowed<br><br><br>2023 Guidance Ranges |

Vistra – Press Release
Aug. 9, 2023, Page 3
Vistra narrowed its 2023 guidance ranges of Ongoing Operations Adjusted EBITDA to $3,600 million to $4,000 million and Ongoing Operations Adjusted FCFbG of $1,900 million to $2,350 million. The midpoint of the narrowed 2023 Ongoing Operations Adjusted EBITDA guidance is now $3,800 million, which is higher than the top of the potential Ongoing Operations Adjusted EBITDA midpoint opportunity range Vistra first announced in May 2022. The midpoint of the narrowed 2023 Ongoing Operations Adjusted FCFbG guidance range is now $2,125 million.
As of June 30, 2023, Vistra had hedged approximately 86% of its expected generation volumes on average for the three-year period 2023 to 2025, with the balance of 2023 hedged at approximately 98% and 2024 hedged at approximately 95%. Vistra’s hedging program, as well as forward price curves as of Aug. 4, 2023, provide confidence that it will achieve results within the company’s narrowed 2023 guidance ranges and further provide increasing confidence in the previously announced Ongoing Operations Adjusted EBITDA midpoint opportunities for 2024 and 2025 of $3,700 million to $3,800 million (exclusive of any future EBITDA contribution from Energy Harbor).^3^
Share Repurchase Program
As of Aug. 4, 2023:
| • | Vistra had executed ~$2.9 billion in share repurchases since November 2021. |
|---|---|
| • | Vistra had ~$1.35 billion remaining under its $4.25 billion share repurchase authorization, which is<br>expected to be utilized by year-end 2024. |
| --- | --- |
| • | Vistra had ~367.5 million shares outstanding, representing an ~24% reduction of the amount of the shares<br>outstanding on Nov. 2, 2021. |

Clean Energy Transition
Vistra is focused on reliability, affordability and sustainability. With this in mind, Vistra continues to grow its fleet of lower carbon resources, advancing these interests through cost-effective, strategic investments in solar and battery storage developments and through its transformative acquisition of Energy Harbor, anticipated to close in the fourth quarter 2023.
This quarter, Vistra brought the 350 MW Phase III expansion of its Moss Landing Energy Storage Facility online, boosting its zero-emission generation and energy storage portfolio to 3,758 MW currently online (including our 2,400-MW nuclear facility, Comanche Peak), with additional renewable generation and energy storage developments in the near-term pipeline.
In March 2023, Vistra announced the execution of a definitive agreement to acquire Energy Harbor, which will add more than 4,000 MW of nuclear generation to its portfolio along with approximately one million additional retail customers. Together with Comanche Peak, this acquisition will bring Vistra’s nuclear capacity to more than 6,400 MW at the transaction’s closing. Further, in 2022, Comanche Peak applied to extend its licenses through 2050 and 2053 for the two-unit facility, an additional 20 years beyond the original licenses. This process is advancing as expected.
Vistra – Press Release
Aug. 9, 2023, Page 4
The Inflation Reduction Act is anticipated to provide the opportunity to realize material benefits on the 350 MW Phase III expansion of the Moss Landing Energy Storage Facility and the development of additional renewables and energy storage, as well as provide strong price support via the nuclear production tax credit for our nuclear facilities, including those being acquired through the Energy Harbor transaction.
Vistra intends to remain strategic and disciplined with respect to the timing of investments in renewables and battery storage projects. Overall, continued development of the renewables and battery storage portfolio is expected to be financed primarily with third-party capital. Vistra expects to execute the initial nonrecourse financings in the coming months.
Liquidity
As of June 30, 2023, Vistra had total available liquidity of approximately $2,472 million, including cash and cash equivalents of $643 million, $1,503 million of availability under its corporate revolving credit facility, and $326 million of availability under its commodity-linked revolving credit facility.
Available capacity under the commodity-linked revolving credit facility reflects the borrowing base as of June 30, 2023, which was lower than the aggregate commitments of $1,350 million. The reduction in the borrowing base is due, in part, to the expiration of certain deemed 2023 hedges and would increase in size in a rising commodity price environment in accordance with the terms of the commodity-linked revolving credit facility.
Available liquidity further excludes approximately $725 million of undrawn available borrowing capacity as of June 30, 2023, under Vistra’s accounts receivable financing arrangements.
Earnings Webcast
Vistra will host a webcast today, Aug. 9, 2023, beginning at 9 a.m. ET (8 a.m. CT) to discuss these results and related matters. The live webcast and the accompanying slides that will be discussed on the call can be accessed via Vistra’s website at www.vistracorp.com under “Investor Relations” and then “Events & Presentations.” Participants can also listen by phone by registering here prior to the start time of the call to receive a conference call dial-in number. A replay of the webcast will be available on Vistra’s website for one year following the live event.
About Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Items Affecting Comparability
“Adjusted EBITDA” (EBITDA as adjusted for unrealized gains or losses from hedging activities, tax receivable agreement impacts, reorganization items, and certain other items described from time to time in Vistra’s earnings releases), “Adjusted Free Cash Flow before Growth” (or “Adjusted FCFbG”) (cash from operating activities excluding changes in margin deposits and working capital and adjusted for capital expenditures (including capital expenditures for growth investments), other net investment activities, and other items described from time to time in Vistra’s earnings releases), “Ongoing Operations Adjusted EBITDA” (adjusted EBITDA less adjusted EBITDA from Asset Closure segment), “Net Income (Loss) from Ongoing Operations” (net income less net income from Asset Closure segment), and “Ongoing Operations Adjusted Free Cash Flow before Growth” or “Ongoing Operations Adjusted FCFbG” (adjusted free cash flow before growth less cash flow from operating activities from Asset Closure segment before growth) are “non-GAAP financial measures.” A non-GAAP financial measure is a numerical measure of financial performance that excludes or includes amounts so as to be different than the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP in Vistra’s consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive income, changes in stockholders’ equity and cash flows. Non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the most directly comparable GAAP measures. Vistra’s non-GAAP financial measures may be different from non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies.
Vistra – Press Release

Vistra uses Adjusted EBITDA as a measure of performance and believes that analysis of its business by external users is enhanced by visibility to both Net Income prepared in accordance with GAAP and Adjusted EBITDA. Vistra uses Adjusted Free Cash Flow before Growth as a measure of liquidity and believes that analysis of its ability to service its cash obligations is supported by disclosure of both cash provided by (used in) operating activities prepared in accordance with GAAP as well as Adjusted Free Cash Flow before Growth. Vistra uses Ongoing Operations Adjusted EBITDA as a measure of performance and Ongoing Operations Adjusted Free Cash Flow before Growth as a measure of liquidity, and Vistra’s management and board of directors have found it informative to view the Asset Closure segment as separate and distinct from Vistra’s ongoing operations. Vistra uses Net Income (Loss) from Ongoing Operations as a non-GAAP measure that is most comparable to the GAAP measure Net Income in order to illustrate the company’s Net Income excluding the effects of the Asset Closure segment, as well as a measure to compare to Ongoing Operations Adjusted EBITDA. The schedules attached to this earnings release reconcile the non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable financial measures calculated and presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP.
