IRVING, Texas, May 9, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Vistra Corp. (NYSE:VST) ("Vistra") today reported its first quarter 2023 financial results and other highlights.

"This year is off to an exciting start. We are executing on our strategic priorities – including realizing the benefits of our integrated model, which is supported by our comprehensive hedging program, providing line of sight to our robust return of capital program, and the transformation of our company," said Jim Burke, president and CEO of Vistra. "Our zero-carbon portfolio continues to grow: the Moss Landing 350-megawatt Phase III development is on track to come online this summer, and we announced in March the planned acquisition of Energy Harbor Corp., a transaction that will more than double the amount of zero-carbon generation we currently have online. This acquisition will further enhance our stable and elevated earnings potential we see continuing into the out years, with price support from the nuclear production tax credit."

Burke continued, "This transaction is an attractive and transformative opportunity, and the novel structuring of consideration for the assets allows us to continue our focus on consistently returning capital to our shareholders while maintaining a strong balance sheet. Share repurchases continue as planned, with Vistra repurchasing approximately $440 million of stock since the beginning of this year, contributing to a total 23% share reduction since the repurchase program began in November 2021. Together with the anticipated $300 million in annual dividends paid on an ever-reducing share count, the Vistra shareholder return proposition remains strong."

Burke concluded, "We continue to see tremendous opportunity in Vistra's integrated model and the critical role our assets play in meeting customer needs. This quarter's performance shined a light on the resiliency of the business even in mild weather conditions across the country. We are very excited about the outlook for our business and our ability to serve customers in a growing category that is undergoing significant change. Vistra is well positioned to create sustained, long-term value, and we remain keenly focused on execution of our strategic priorities."

For the first quarter 2023, Vistra reported Net Income of $698 million, Net Income from Ongoing Operations of $725 million, and Ongoing Operations Adjusted EBITDA of $554 million. Vistra's Net Income for the first quarter 2023 was an improvement of $982 million over the first quarter 2022 Net Loss, driven primarily by $1,085 million in pre-tax unrealized gains from mark-to-market valuations of commodity positions in 2023 compared to $360 million in pre-tax unrealized losses from mark-to-market valuations of commodity positions in 2022. Ongoing Operations Adjusted EBITDA for the first quarter 2023 was $13 million higher than the first quarter 2022, driven primarily by benefits of in-the-money settled hedges at higher prices and the recognition of the net bonus position from PJM that reflects the operating performance of our fleet with respect to Winter Storm Elliott, partially offset by impacts of milder weather and the expected increased customer migration to default service and lower capacity payment revenues.

Guidance

($ in millions)

Reaffirmed

2023

Ongoing Operations Adjusted EBITDA

$3,400 - $4,000

Ongoing Operations Adjusted FCFbG

$1,750 - $2,350

Vistra reaffirmed its 2023 guidance ranges of Ongoing Operations Adjusted EBITDA of $3,400 million to $4,000 million and Ongoing Operations Adjusted FCFbG of $1,750 million to $2,350 million. The midpoint of 2023 Ongoing Operations Adjusted EBITDA guidance is $3,700 million, which is the top of the potential Ongoing Operations Adjusted EBITDA midpoint opportunity range Vistra announced in the first quarter of 2022. The midpoint of the 2023 Ongoing Operations Adjusted FCFbG guidance range is $2,050 million.

As of March 31, 2023, Vistra had hedged approximately 86% of its expected generation volumes on average for the three-year period 2023 to 2025, with 2023 hedged at approximately 99% and 2024 hedged at approximately 96%. Vistra's hedging program and forward price curves as of May 4, 2023 continue to support its 2023 guidance ranges and support an expected upside to Ongoing Operations Adjusted EBITDA midpoint opportunities for 2024 and 2025, which were estimated to be in the range of $3,500 million to $3,700 million in the first quarter of 2022.³

Share Repurchase Program

As of May 4, 2023:

Vistra had executed ~$2.7 billion in share repurchases since November 2021.
Vistra has ~$1.55 billion remaining under its $4.25 billion share repurchase authorization, which is expected to be utilized by year-end 2024.
Vistra had ~373 million shares outstanding, representing an ~23% reduction of the amount of the shares 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 energy storage developments (its Vistra Zero portfolio) and through its transformative acquisition of Energy Harbor, anticipated to close in the fourth quarter 2023.

Vistra currently has 3,408 MW of zero-emission generation and energy storage online (including our 2,400-MW nuclear facility, Comanche Peak), with additional renewable generation and energy storage developments in the near-term pipeline, including the Moss Landing Phase III 350 MW energy storage development anticipated to be online mid-2023.

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, Vistra will have approximately 6,400 MW of nuclear generation online at the transaction's closing. The transaction will provide diversification and scale across multiple carbon-free technologies. 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.

The Inflation Reduction Act is anticipated to provide the Vistra Zero portfolio with the opportunity to realize material benefits on the development of additional renewables and energy storage, as well as provide strong price support 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 Vistra Zero. Overall, continued development of the Vistra Zero portfolio is expected to be financed primarily with third-party capital, including the net proceeds of the $1 billion green perpetual preferred stock issued in December 2021 and nonrecourse financings at the project or Vistra Zero portfolio level.

Liquidity

As of March 31, 2023:

Vistra had total available liquidity of approximately $2,679 million, including cash and cash equivalents of $518 million, $1,992 million of availability under its corporate revolving credit facility, and $169 million of availability under its commodity-linked revolving credit facility.

Available capacity under the commodity-linked revolving credit facility reflects the borrowing base, which is lower than the aggregate commitments of $1,350 million. The reduction in the borrowing base is due to a decrease in commodity prices and would increase in size in a rising commodity price environment in accordance with the terms of the commodity-linked revolving credit facility.

Earnings Webcast

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 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.

1 Ongoing Operations excludes the Asset Closure segment. Net Income (Loss) from Ongoing Operations, Ongoing Operations Adjusted EBITDA, and Ongoing Operations Adjusted Free Cash Flow before Growth are non-GAAP financial measures. References to Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted FCFbG are references to Ongoing Operations Adjusted EBITDA and Ongoing Operations Adjusted Free Cash Flow before Growth, respectively. See the "Non-GAAP Reconciliation" tables for further detail. Total segment information may not tie due to rounding.

2 Due to the recast of Edwards Power Plant, which retired on Jan. 1 2023, to the Asset Closure segment, Net Loss from Ongoing Operations for the three months ended March 31, 2022 decreased $50 million and Ongoing Operations Adjusted EBITDA for the three months ended March 31, 2022 decreased $6 million.

3 Reflects potential midpoint opportunity range of Ongoing Operations Adjusted EBITDA for 2024 and 2025 previously disclosed on our first quarter 2022 earnings call; this range of estimated opportunities is not intended to be guidance.
