Kristopher Moldovan, executive vice president and chief financial officer at Vistra, participated in the company’s second quarter 2026 earnings call on August 6, 2026. During the call, Vistra reported adjusted EBITDA of $1.77 billion, a 31% increase, and the company reaffirmed its full-year 2026 adjusted EBITDA guidance range of $6.8 billion to $7.6 billion, as well as its adjusted free cash flow before growth guidance range of $3.925 billion to $4.725 billion. Moldovan stated that, given first-half performance, the company was confident in delivering at or above the midpoint of these ranges. Moldovan also discussed Vistra’s capital allocation plans, noting that the company forecast generating more than $10 billion of available cash in 2026 and 2027. He said Vistra had allocated approximately $3 billion to equity holders through share repurchases and dividends during that period. He highlighted that the share repurchase program, initiated in November 2021, had retired approximately 171 million shares. Additionally, in response to regulatory policy discussions, company executives expressed opposition to proposed new capacity mandates, advocating instead for market-driven incentives for new build and emphasizing the value of data center flexibility as a grid resource.
