Recently, Zacks.com users have been paying close attention to Vistra (VST). This makes it worthwhile to examine what the stock has in store.

Shares in retail electricity and power generation company Vistra (VST 2.41%) declined by 20.5% in February, according to data provided by S&P Global Market Intelligence. A decline of that magnitude is never welcome.

Vistra's deep selloff has occurred as expected, attributed to its increasingly expensive valuations and overly stretched upward momentum in 2024. Thanks to the -30% drop, the utility company finally looks a lot more compelling, significantly aided by the robust FY2024 performance and reiterated FY2025/2026 guidance. If anything, market sentiments around generative AI and data center capex are likely to revert to optimism, attributed to the durability of hyperscalers' spending trends ahead.

VST is expected to gain from an increase in clean power demand in the region it operates. The company's comprehensive hedging program provides increased visibility of its long-term earnings.

Vistra has sold off on fears that the AI/Data Center demand may evaporate, which is one of three demand drivers. VST's 2026 "guidance" may be a communication error; potential high-impact events in 2025 could materially change the outlook. Valuation points to a US$175 YE25 price target at 13x P/cash earnings on 10% 3yr growth.
