NRG Energy

NRG Energy reported adjusted EPS of $1.49 for Q2 2026, well below the consensus of about $1.82. Higher interest and depreciation costs related to the acquisition of the LS Power portfolio weighed on profitability, even though adjusted EBITDA rose 34% to $1.217 billion. Management reaffirmed the full-year range of $7.90–9.90 per share but expects results below the midpoint, citing weaker power demand/prices in Texas, higher supply and winter storm costs, and roughly $70 million in RGGI charges. Financing of a $3.2 billion gas‑and‑steam project with a hyperscaler pushes the target leverage ratio of 3.0x from 2028 to 2029; Scotiabank cut its price target to $211. » Altro su de.investing.com
