Key Financial Results
The following are financial and operating highlights we achieved in the execution of our four strategic priorities:
Long-term, attractive earnings profile through the integrated business model.
We continued to execute our integrated business model, delivering strong operational and financial performance while responding effectively to market opportunities. Our ability to combine a diversified and dependable generation fleet with a scaled retail platform and disciplined wholesale risk management capabilities remains a core competitive advantage and supports more stable and predictable cash flows across commodity price cycles.
Long-term contracts entered in 2025 underwrite higher base profitability in the future.
In September 2025, we announced that we had entered into a 20-year power purchase agreement (PPA) (with options to extend for up to an additional 20 years) with Amazon Web Services (AWS) to supply 1,200 MW of carbon-free power from our Comanche Peak Nuclear Power Plant. We anticipate power delivery to begin in the fourth quarter of 2027 and ramp to full capacity by 2032.
In January 2026, we announced that we had entered into 20-year PPAs with Meta Platforms, Inc. (Meta) to supply 2,609 MW of carbon-free power and capacity from our PJM nuclear power plants, including 2,176 MW of operating energy and capacity and 433 of uprate energy and capacity to be constructed. We anticipate commencing delivery on a portion of the operating energy and capacity in late 2026 and full delivery by year end 2027. We anticipate commencing delivery on a portion of the uprate energy and capacity by 2031 and full delivery by year end 2034.
Disciplined capital allocation.
Executed disciplined capital allocation through targeted natural gas expansion, including the development of an 860 MW facility in West Texas and the acquisition of 2,600 MW of natural gas generation capacity from Lotus.
In December 2025, we executed definitive agreements to acquire Cogentrix Energy, consisting of 10 natural gas generation facilities totaling approximately 5,500 MW of capacity. The transaction is expected to close in mid-to-late 2026.
During the year ended December 31, 2025, we paid dividends to common stockholders totaling $306 million.
In October 2025, the Board authorized an incremental amount of $1.0 billion under our stock repurchase program established in October 2021. During the year ended December 31, 2025, we repurchased 6.6 million shares for approximately $1.0 billion under the program. Through February 18, 2026, total shares repurchased under the program totaled 167 million shares for $5.9 billion, and we have $1.8 billion available for additional repurchases under the program.
In December 2025, S&P raised its issuer credit rating on Vistra to investment grade from BB+ to BBB-.
Maintaining a resilient balance sheet.
We further diversified our sources of liquidity and improved associated borrowing costs and credit terms through a number of enhancements and amendments to our facilities throughout the year, including (i) extending the maturity of the Commodity-Linked Facility to September 2026, (ii) increasing the commitment cap under the alternative letter of credit facility from $500 million to $800 million, and (iii) expanding and extending the Receivables Facility purchase limit by $100 million and extended the term to July 2026.
In October 2025, we issued $750 million of 4.300% senior secured notes due 2028, $500 million of 4.600% senior secured notes due 2030, and $750 million of 5.250% senior secured notes due 2035. The net proceeds from these issuances were used to refinance senior unsecured debt maturities in September 2026 and for general corporate purposes, including to fund a portion of the Lotus Acquisition.
Strategic energy transition focused on the reliability, affordability, and sustainability of electric grid.
Planned uprates at the Company's operating Perry Nuclear Power Plant (Perry), Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Plant (Davis-Besse), and Beaver Valley Nuclear Power Plant (Beaver Valley) would add 433 MW of incremental carbon-free nuclear energy and capacity to the PJM region commencing delivery on a portion of the uprate energy and capacity by 2031 and full delivery of the uprate energy and capacity by year end 2034.
We reached commercial operations at the Oak Hill solar facility in Texas totaling 200 MW of capacity and continued development and construction activities on additional facilities at retired or to-be-retired plant sites in Illinois.
We announced plans to repower the Coleto Creek and Miami Fort coal generation facilities as natural gas-fueled facilities upon their retirement no later than 2027 and the middle of 2028, respectively.
