PRINCETON, N.J., Feb. 23, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Clearway Energy, Inc. (NYSE:CWEN, CWEN.A)) today reported full year 2025 financial results, including Net Loss of $231 million, Adjusted EBITDA of $1,217 million, Cash from Operating Activities of $688 million, and Cash Available for Distribution (CAFD) of $430 million.

"Clearway's full year 2025 results came in at the top end of our original guidance range, reflecting strong operational and growth execution across our platform. Our enterprise once again demonstrated meaningful progress towards meeting our long-term financial objectives across multiple growth pathways, including: enhancing long-term cash flows in our portfolio through fleet enhancements, advancing dropdown commitments for investment opportunities out into 2028, and commercializing future sponsor-enabled growth with two gigawatts of contracts signed to power data centers in the last 12 months. With this increasing foundation of visible growth, we are on a solid path to achieve our $2.90 to $3.10 of CAFD per share target for 2030. Based on our expanding opportunity set, we are also optimistic about our ability to continue to grow CAFD per share 5-8%+ in the years beyond 2030, including growing at the top end of that range in 2031 from our 2030 target baseline," said Craig Cornelius, Clearway Energy, Inc.'s Chief Executive Officer.

Adjusted EBITDA and Cash Available for Distribution used in this press release are non-GAAP measures and are explained in greater detail under "Non-GAAP Financial Information" below.

Cash from Operating Activities		$	177		$	192		$	688		$	770

For the fourth quarter of 2025, the Company reported Net Loss of $199 million, Adjusted EBITDA of $237 million, Cash from Operating Activities of $177 million, and CAFD of $35 million. Net Loss decreased versus 2024 primarily due to higher income tax expense and changes in mark-to-market for economic hedges. Adjusted EBITDA for the fourth quarter of 2025 was higher than in 2024 primarily due to contributions from growth investments offset by lower wind resource at certain facilities. CAFD results in the fourth quarter of 2025 were lower than 2024 primarily due to higher project level debt service.

Operational Performance

In the fourth quarter of 2025, availability at the Flexible Generation segment, formerly known as Conventional, was higher than the fourth quarter of 2024 primarily from outages at certain facilities in 2024. Generation in the Renewables & Storage segment during the fourth quarter of 2025 was 10% higher than the fourth quarter of 2024 primarily due to the contributions of growth investments.

Total liquidity as of December 31, 2025 was $1,061 million, which was $269 million lower than the same period ended December 31, 2024 primarily due to the execution of growth investments.

As of December 31, 2025, the Company's liquidity included $587 million of restricted cash. Restricted cash consists primarily of funds to satisfy the requirements of certain debt arrangements and funds held within the Company's projects that are restricted in their use. As of December 31, 2025, these restricted funds were comprised of $146 million designated to fund operating expenses, approximately $99 million designated for current debt service payments, and $85 million of reserves for debt service, performance obligations and other items including capital expenditures. The remaining $257 million is held in distribution reserve accounts, of which $174 million relates to proceeds from the sale of transferable investment tax credits for the Rosamond South I project that were received on behalf of the tax equity investor in Rosie South TE Holdco LLC and subsequently distributed to the tax equity investor in January 2026.

As of December 31, 2025, the Company had $361 million in outstanding borrowings under its revolving credit facility and $96 million in letters of credit outstanding. During January 2026, the Company closed on $600 million in senior, unsecured notes due 2034, which were utilized to repay all of the outstanding borrowings under the revolving credit facility as well as for general corporate purposes. The facility will continue to be used for general corporate purposes, including financing of future investments or acquisitions and posting letters of credit.

Potential future sources of liquidity include excess operating cash flow, availability under the revolving credit facility, asset dispositions, and, subject to market conditions, new corporate debt and equity financings.

Growth Investments and Commercial Agreements

Power Purchase Agreements with Google

On January 15, 2026, Clearway Group announced the execution of three long-term power purchase agreements (PPAs) signed with Google in 2025 for approximately 1.1 GW of projects located in Missouri, Texas, and West Virginia that consisted of the following projects:

• Goat Mountain Repower: The project is a Company-owned, operational wind project located in Texas that signed a 15-year PPA to underpin a repowering targeted in 2027. The Company estimates that its total corporate capital investment in the Goat Mountain repowering will be $200 million, subject to closing adjustments.
• Swan Solar: The project is a new construction solar project that was offered to the Company located in Missouri with a signed 20-year PPA and is targeting commercial operations in 2028. The Company estimates that its potential corporate capital investment in the project will be approximately $215 million.
• Catamount: The project is a new construction wind project located in West Virginia within Clearway Group's development pipeline that signed a 20-year PPA and is targeting commercial operations in 2028. The Company estimates that its potential corporate capital investment in the project will be approximately $155 million.
  
  

Investment decisions for the Swan Solar and Catamount Wind projects are subject to negotiation both with Clearway Group, and the review and approval by the Company's Independent Directors.

Swan Solar

In the first quarter of 2026, Clearway Group offered the Company the opportunity to enter into partnership arrangements to own cash equity interests in a 650 MW solar project located in Missouri. The project signed a 20-year PPA with Google and is targeting commercial operations in 2028. The potential corporate capital commitment for the investment is expected to be approximately $215 million. The investment is subject to negotiation both with Clearway Group, and the review and approval by the Company's Independent Directors.

Royal Slope Solar Plus Storage

In the first quarter of 2026, Clearway Group offered the Company the opportunity to enter into partnership arrangements to own cash equity interests in a 520 MW solar plus storage project located in Washington that is expected to reach commercial operations in 2027. The project has executed a 20-year PPA and ESA with a Washington state municipal utility to serve significant data center demand growth. The potential corporate capital commitment for the investment is expected to be approximately $200 million. The investment is subject to negotiation both with Clearway Group, and the review and approval by the Company's Independent Directors.

Rosamond South II and Spindle

On November 24, 2025, the Company, through an indirect subsidiary, entered into an agreement with Clearway Group to acquire interests in Spindle, a 199 MW BESS facility currently under construction in Weld County, Colorado, and Rosamond South II, a 92 MW BESS facility currently under construction in Kern County, California, for approximately $90 million in cash consideration, subject to closing adjustments. The consummation of the transaction is subject to customary closing conditions and certain third-party approvals and is expected in the second half of 2026.

Financing Updates

Class C Shares Issuances

In the first quarter of 2026, the Company raised gross proceeds of approximately $50 million through the sale of Class C common stock under the Company's equity issuance programs at a weighted average price of $34.60 per share.

2034 Senior Notes

On January 13, 2026, Clearway Energy Operating LLC completed the sale of $600 million aggregate principal amount of senior unsecured notes due 2034, or the 2034 Senior Notes. The 2034 Senior Notes bear interest at 5.750% and mature on January 15, 2034. Interest on the 2034 Senior Notes is payable semi-annually on January 15 and July 15 of each year, beginning on July 15, 2026. The net proceeds from the 2034 Senior Notes were used to repay $361 million in outstanding borrowings under the revolving credit facility and for general corporate purposes.

Quarterly Dividend

On February 17, 2026, Clearway Energy, Inc.'s Board of Directors declared a quarterly dividend on Class A and Class C common stock of $0.4602 per share payable on March 16, 2026, to stockholders of record as of March 2, 2026.

Seasonality

Clearway Energy, Inc.'s quarterly operating results are impacted by seasonal factors, as well as weather variability which can impact renewable energy resource throughout the year. Most of the Company's revenues are generated from the months of May through September, as contracted pricing and renewable resources are at their highest levels in the Company's portfolio. Factors driving the fluctuation in Net Income, Adjusted EBITDA, Cash from Operating Activities, and CAFD include the following:

• Higher summer capacity and energy prices from flexible generation assets;
• Higher solar insolation during the summer months;
• Higher wind resources during the spring and summer months;
• Renewable energy resource throughout the year
• Debt service payments which are made either quarterly or semi-annually;
• Timing of maintenance capital expenditures and the impact of both unforced and forced outages; and
• Timing of distributions from unconsolidated affiliates
  
  

The Company takes into consideration the timing of these factors to ensure sufficient funds are available for distributions and operating activities on a quarterly basis.

Financial Guidance

The Company is reaffirming its 2026 full year CAFD guidance range of $470 million to $510 million. The midpoint of the 2026 financial guidance range is based on median renewable energy production estimates for the full year, while the range reflects a potential distribution of outcomes on resource and performance in the fiscal year. The guidance range also factors in completing committed growth investments on currently forecasted schedules.
