Vistra Reports Third Quarter 2021 Results

and Announces Additional Long-Term

Capital Allocation Plan Details

Returning Capital to Financial Stakeholders

•

Announced plans to return at least $7.5 billion to common stockholders through year-end 2026, reflecting an average annual ~15% cash yield on the stock at the current stock price, via a combination of share repurchases and dividends, with plans to retire at least $1.5 billion of debt by year-end 2022¹:

Share Repurchases

•

Announced, in October, a $2 billion share repurchase program, which is sized at over 20% of the company’s current market cap and is expected to be executed by year-end 2022. The share repurchase program is partially funded by $1 billion of preferred equity raised in October.

•

Vistra expects it will opportunistically repurchase another ~$4 billion of common stock between 2023 and 2026, so long as the company believes its stock is undervalued.

•

In total, this five-year allocation to share repurchases represents >60% of the company’s current market capitalization.

Dividends

•

Announced an updated dividend policy pursuant to which Vistra expects to commit $300 million² annually toward its common dividend program, totaling $1.5 billion over the five-year period.

•

Assuming $6 billion of share repurchases executed at Vistra’s current stock price³, Vistra’s annualized dividend per share would grow by ~175% by year-end 2026.

Debt Repayments

•

Reaffirmed its commitment to a strong balance sheet, announcing plans to retire ~$1.5 billion of debt by year-end 2022¹ with plans for up to $3 billion of debt repayments by year-end 2026¹.

Financial Highlights

•

Delivered third quarter 2021 Net Income of $10 million and Net Income from Ongoing Operations⁴ of $16 million. Third quarter 2021 Ongoing Operations Adjusted EBITDA⁴ was $1,177 million. Excluding the Winter Storm Uri (Uri) impacts, Vistra’s Ongoing Operations Adjusted EBITDA, excluding Uri^4,5, was $1,167 million.

•

Raised and narrowed 2021 Ongoing Operations Adjusted EBITDA⁴ guidance range to $1,890 to $2,090 million and revised and narrowed Ongoing Operations Adjusted Free Cash Flow before Growth⁴ (FCFbG) guidance range to $100 to $300 million. The Ongoing Operations Adjusted EBITDA guidance range includes ~$500 million⁶ from ERCOT’s securitization of certain Uri-related costs borne by load-serving entities, which partially offsets the retail portion of the greater than $2 billion financial loss Vistra recorded in the first quarter of 2021. The cash impact of the securitization is reflected in Vistra’s 2022 Adjusted FCFbG guidance range, which is the year in which the company expects to receive the cash proceeds.

Vistra – Press Release

Nov. 5, 2021, Page 2

•

Initiated 2022 Ongoing Operations Adjusted EBITDA⁴ and Ongoing Operations Adjusted Free Cash Flow before Growth⁴(FCFbG) guidance ranges of $2,810 to $3,310 million and $2,070 to $2,570 million, respectively, an expected Adjusted EBITDA to Adjusted FCFbG conversion of ~76%.

•

Vistra’s 2022 guidance ranges include the negative impact of ~$185 million from bill credits applied to large commercial and industrial customers that curtailed during Uri and the negative impact of ~$55 million from the execution of NPV-positive, long-dated contracts with retail customers.

•

Excluding these impacts for an illustrative view of the long-term earnings power of the business, Vistra’s 2022 Ongoing Operations Adjusted EBITDA^4,7 guidance range would be $3,050 to $3,550 million.

•

Paid a quarterly dividend of $0.15 per share, or $0.60 per share on an annualized basis, on Sept. 30, 2021, to shareholders of record as of Sept. 16, 2021.

Winter Preparedness

•

Implemented a series of steps designed to significantly improve risk profile in the event of future weather-driven volatility events, including:

•

Investing ~$80 million in the ERCOT fleet to further harden generation for cold temperatures and improve security of fuel.

•

Added incremental gas storage capacity, as well as dual fuel capabilities at gas steam units.

•

Revised risk management policy to reserve additional generation length as physical insurance leading into peak periods.

•

Continued participation with the PUCT and ERCOT to implement Texas legislation related to Uri and to evaluate potential ERCOT market reforms.

A Clean Energy Future

•

Acquired Angus Solar, LLC, owner of the 110-MW Angus solar development project located in Bosque County, Texas, from developer Cypress Creek. Angus, which is estimated to begin commercial operations by year-end 2023, joins the growing Vistra Zero portfolio of zero-carbon generation assets.

•

Announced the planned development of up to 300 MW of utility-scale solar and up to 125 MW of battery energy storage facilities at nine retired or to-be-retired Vistra coal plant sites across central and southern Illinois, supported by the passage of Illinois’ landmark Energy Transition Act, which incorporated Vistra’s legislative priority known as the Illinois Coal to Solar & Energy Storage Initiative.

•

Supported COP26 through committing to align emissions reduction targets to keep warming to 1.5°C and reaching science-based net-zero emissions by 2050, as promoted by Science Based Targets initiative’s Business Ambition for 1.5°C, and encouraging governments and corporate leaders to set strong emissions reduction targets.

ESG Highlights

•

Honored with the Excellence in Surface Coal Mining Reclamation Award by the Office of Surface Mining Reclamation & Enforcement, a bureau of the U.S. Department of the Interior. The award recognizes companies that go beyond federal reclamation requirements to demonstrate their commitment to the environment.

•

Launched TXU Energy Freedom Rewards^SM, a first-of-its-kind energy plan allowing customers to earn 30% in free electricity for every dollar spent on energy charges.

•

Encouraged Fortune 1000 CEOs to help advance disability inclusion and equality through Disability:IN’s CEO letter campaign, while reinforcing Vistra’s commitment to equality and inclusion at Vistra.

•

Incentivized COVID-19 vaccinations for employees through a vaccine sweepstakes where eight employees will win a cash prize, up to $50,000 each, for submitting proof of vaccination.

(1)	Corporate-level debt. Excludes potential future Vistra Zero project financing.

(2)	Based on management’s recommendations; subject to Board’s approval at the applicable time.

(3)	Assumes share price of $20 as of Nov. 1, 2021 close.

(4)

Excludes the Asset Closure segment. Net Income from Ongoing Operations, Ongoing Operations Adjusted EBITDA, Ongoing Operations Adjusted EBITDA, excluding Uri, Ongoing Operations Illustrative Adjusted EBITDA, Ongoing Operations Adjusted FCFbG, and Ongoing Operations Illustrative Adjusted FCFbG are non-GAAP financial measures. See the “Non-GAAP Reconciliation” tables for further detail.

(5)	Excludes net $10 million benefit related to Uri, including ERCOT resettlement and revenue true-up benefit of $43 million net of $(33) million of bill credits applied to large commercial and industrial customer bills that curtailed during Uri.

(6)

The amount of the securitization proceeds reflects management’s estimate. The final amount is expected to be determined in December 2021, and the payment of the proceeds will be subject to ERCOT’s ability to secure the financing. The Company currently expects the proceeds to be reflected in Ongoing Operations Adjusted EBITDA for the quarter ended Dec. 31, 2021. The inclusion of the securitization proceeds in Ongoing Operations Adjusted EBITDA guidance is a non-GAAP determination at this time, reflecting management’s view of the financial impact of securitization on operating results, which offsets a portion of the Uri-related retail costs incurred during the first quarter of 2021, and the representative period for which the proceeds relate. The GAAP measurement is still under review. Management expects the GAAP determination will be finalized prior to the filing of the company’s 2021 Form 10-K.

(7)

Excludes ~$185 million impact from bill credits applied to large commercial and industrial customers that curtailed during Uri and ~$55 million impact from retail term contract backwardation. Provided for illustrative purposes only and should not be read or viewed as Vistra’s actual 2022 guidance, which is also set forth above.

For the three months ended Sept. 30, 2021, Vistra reported Net Income of $10 million, Net Income from Ongoing Operations¹ of $16 million, and Ongoing Operations Adjusted EBITDA¹ of $1,177 million. Vistra’s third quarter 2021 Ongoing Operations Adjusted EBITDA, excluding Uri^1,2, was $1,167 million. Vistra’s third quarter 2021 Net Income was $432 million lower than third quarter 2020 Net Income, driven primarily by unrealized hedging losses.

Vistra – Press Release

Nov. 5, 2021, Page 4

Vistra reported third quarter Adjusted EBITDA from the Retail segment of $65 million, $205 million higher than third quarter 2020 results, driven by the execution of Vistra’s self-help initiatives following Uri and lower cost of goods sold period-over-period. Third quarter Adjusted EBITDA from the generation⁴ segments, on an aggregate basis, totaled $1,112 million, $211 million lower than third quarter 2020 results, primarily driven by lower energy margin in Texas, East, and Sunset.

“Vistra’s integrated operations continued to operate well following Winter Storm Uri, delivering third quarter financial results that are in-line with the prior period, and capturing approximately 85% of the company’s $500 million self-help target as of Sept. 30, with a clear line of sight to the balance,” said Curt Morgan, Vistra’s chief executive officer. “We continue to believe in the long-term value of the company. Our strategic review process, which management and the board undertook in the first three quarters of 2021, has led us toward the execution of a capital allocation plan that is focused on maximizing the value of our business, growing our Vistra Zero portfolio via cost-effective capital, and prioritizing the return of capital to our financial stakeholders. The closing of our preferred equity offering and announcement of our near-term $2 billion share repurchase program is an exciting first step in the execution of this plan, with the very real prospect of repurchasing over 60% of our current market cap by year-end 2026 and returning an additional $1.5 billion to shareholders through common dividends over that same time period for a grand total of $7.5 billion. All in all, at our current share price, the expected repurchases and dividends are forecast to result in an average annual cash yield on our current stock price of an attractive 15%.”

(1)

Excludes results from the Asset Closure segment. Net Income from Ongoing Operations, Ongoing Operations Adjusted EBITDA, and Ongoing Operations Adjusted EBITDA, excluding Uri, are non-GAAP financial measures. See the “Non-GAAP Reconciliation” tables for further details. Total by segment may not tie due to rounding.

(2)

Q3 2021 Excludes net $10 million benefit related to Uri, including ERCOT resettlement and revenue true-up benefit of $43 million net of $(33) million of bill credits applied to large commercial and industrial customer bills that curtailed during Uri. YTD 2021 excludes $2,035 million of Uri-related impacts.

(3)	Q3 2020 results decreased by $2 million and YTD 2020 results decreased by $1 million due to the recast of Wharton power plant, retired in 2020, to the Asset Closure segment.

Vistra is raising and narrowing its 2021 Ongoing Operations Adjusted EBITDA¹ guidance range to $1,890 to $2,090 million and revising and narrowing its 2021 Ongoing Operations Adjusted FCFbG¹ guidance range to $100 to $300 million. Vistra’s 2021 Ongoing Operations Adjusted EBITDA guidance range includes ~$500 million⁴ from ERCOT’s securitization of certain Uri-related costs borne by load-serving entities, which partially offsets the retail portion of the greater than $2 billion financial loss Vistra recorded in the first quarter of 2021. Vistra expects to receive the ~$500 million of securitization proceeds in the first half of 2022. As a result, the cash flow impact of securitization is included in Vistra’s 2022 Ongoing Operations Adjusted FCFbG guidance range.

Vistra is initiating its 2022 Ongoing Operations guidance ranges, forecasting Ongoing Operations Adjusted EBITDA¹ of $2,810 to $3,310 million and Ongoing Operations Adjusted FCFbG¹ of $2,070 to $2,570 million, an expected Adjusted EBITDA to Adjusted FCFbG conversion of ~76%. Vistra’s 2022 guidance ranges include the negative impact of ~$185 million from bill credits applied to large commercial and industrial customers that curtailed during Uri and the negative impact of ~$55 million from the execution of NPV-positive, long-dated contracts with retail customers that will contribute positive EBITDA in future years. Excluding these impacts, which is reflective of the long-term earnings power of the business, Vistra’s Ongoing Operations Illustrative Adjusted EBITDA^1,3 guidance range is $3,050 to $3,550 million.

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), “Ongoing Operations Adjusted EBITDA, excluding Uri” (Ongoing Operations Adjusted EBITDA as further adjusted to exclude the impacts arising from Uri), “Ongoing Operations Illustrative Adjusted EBITDA” (Ongoing Operations Adjusted EBITDA as further adjusted to exclude the impacts arising from Uri and the Year 1 impacts from various long-dated, NPV-positive retail contracts), “Net Income from Ongoing Operations” (net income less net income from Asset Closure segment), “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), and “Ongoing Operations Illustrative Adjusted FCFbG (Ongoing Operations Adjusted FCFbG as further adjusted to exclude the impacts arising from Uri and the Year 1 impacts from various long-dated, NPV-positive retail contracts), 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

Nov. 5, 2021, Page 6

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 have found it informative to view the Asset Closure segment as separate and distinct from Vistra’s ongoing operations. Vistra uses Net Income 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. Vistra uses Ongoing Operations Adjusted EBITDA, excluding Uri to present a more normalized view of operating performance excluding the impacts of Uri. Vistra uses Ongoing Operations Illustrative Adjusted EBITDA to present a more normalized view of the long-term earnings power of the Company. 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.

(a)	Includes $92 million of unrealized mark-to-market net gains on interest rate swaps.

(b)	Includes nuclear fuel amortization of $61 million in the Texas segment.

(c)	Includes material and supplies and other incremental costs related to our COVID-19 response.

(d)

Includes the following amounts, which we believe are not reflective of our operating performance: $194 million for allocation of ERCOT default uplift charges which are expected to be paid over more than 90 years under current protocols (net present value of $45 million applying a 4.25% discount rate); accrual of Koch earn-out disputed amounts of $286 million that the Company is contesting and does not believe should be paid; $386 million for future bill credits related to Winter Storm Uri as further described below and Winter Storm Uri related legal fees and other costs. The adjustment for future bill credits relates to large commercial and industrial customers that curtailed during Winter Storm Uri and will reverse and impact Adjusted EBITDA in future periods as the credits are applied to customer bills. We estimate the amounts

Vistra – Press Release

Nov. 5, 2021, Page 12

to be applied in future periods are for the remainder of 2021 (approximately $43 million), 2022 (approximately $185 million), 2023 (approximately $84 million), 2024 (approximately $18 million), and 2025 (approximately $8 million). The Company believes the inclusion of the bill credits as a reduction to Adjusted EBITDA in the years in which such bill credits are applied more accurately reflects its operating performance.

(e)

Removes losses incurred due to the need to procure power in ERCOT at market prices at or near the price cap due to lower output from our natural gas-fueled power plants driven by natural gas deliverability issues and our coal-fueled power plants driven by coal fuel handling challenges, high fuel costs, and high retail load costs, partially offset by favorable prices on volumes produced in the East and Sunset segments.
