VST LATEST HEADLINES
Shares of nuclear power producers Constellation Energy (CEG 6.71%), Vistra (VST 6.90%), and Oklo (OKLO 2.21%) (actually, Oklo is more of a nuclear start-up) all moved higher in Monday morning trading. The moves may have been inspired by broader investor enthusiasm in the wake of the Trump administration's weekend announcement of a temporary lifting of tariffs on China -- but that isn't the only reason nuclear stocks are red-hot today.
Although the revenue and EPS for Vistra (VST) give a sense of how its business performed in the quarter ended March 2025, it might be worth considering how some key metrics compare with Wall Street estimates and the year-ago numbers.
VST's recovery has been well deserved, thanks to its robust FQ1 '25 performance metrics and the reiterated FY2025/FY2026 guidance. This is aided by its fully hedged position at approximately 100% of its expected generation volumes for 2025 and approximately 90% for 2026. These may temper the risks arising from OPEC+'s accelerating output hikes and the drastic moderation in crude oil/natural gas spot prices nearer to pre-pandemic levels.
VST's first-quarter 2025 earnings and revenues increase year over year. Fuel and purchased power costs increase during the same period.
