The accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the SEC's regulations for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and notes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. The following notes should be read in conjunction with the accounting policies and other disclosures as set forth in the notes to the consolidated financial statements in the Company's 2024 Form 10-K. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of results for a full year.
In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements contain all material adjustments consisting of normal and recurring accruals necessary to present fairly the Company's consolidated balance sheets as of June 30, 2025, and the results of operations, comprehensive income, cash flows and stockholders' equity for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from these estimates.
Reclassifications
Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified for comparative purposes. The reclassifications did not affect consolidated results of operations, net assets or consolidated cash flows.
Presentation Adjustments
Beginning in the third quarter of 2024, the Company is recording the amortization of capitalized contracts costs within depreciation and amortization. This change, along with additional financial statement disclosures, is meant to address investor inquiries by enhancing transparency to easier match expenses with revenues. NRG previously recorded amortization of capitalized contract costs related to fulfillment in cost of operations and amortization of capitalized contract costs related to customer acquisition primarily in selling, general and administrative costs in the consolidated statements of operations.

Credit Losses
Retail trade receivables are reported on the consolidated balance sheet net of the allowance for credit losses within accounts receivables, net. Long-term receivables are recorded net of allowance for credit losses in other non-current assets on the consolidated balance sheet. The Company accrues a provision for current expected credit losses based on (i) estimates of uncollectible revenues by analyzing accounts receivable aging and current and reasonable forecasts of expected economic factors including, but not limited to, unemployment rates and weather-related events, (ii) historical collections and delinquencies, and (iii) counterparty credit ratings for commercial and industrial customers.

The following table represents the activity in the allowance for credit losses for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024:

Cash and Cash Equivalents, Funds Deposited by Counterparties and Restricted Cash
The following table provides a reconciliation of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash and funds deposited by counterparties reported within the consolidated balance sheets that sum to the total of the same such amounts shown in the statements of cash flows:

(In millions) | June 30, 2025 |  | December 31, 2024
Cash and cash equivalents | $ | 180 |  |  | $ | 966 |
Funds deposited by counterparties | 446 |  |  | 199 |
Restricted cash | 17 |  |  | 8 |
Cash and cash equivalents, funds deposited by counterparties and restricted cash shown in the statement of cash flows | $ | 643 |  |  | $ | 1,173 |

Funds deposited by counterparties consist of cash held by the Company as a result of collateral posting obligations from its counterparties related to NRG's hedging program. Though some amounts are segregated into separate accounts, not all funds are contractually restricted. Based on the Company's intention, these funds are not available for the payment of general corporate obligations; however, they are available for liquidity management. Depending on market fluctuations and the settlement of the underlying contracts, the Company will refund this collateral to the counterparties pursuant to the terms and conditions of the underlying trades. Since collateral requirements fluctuate daily and the Company cannot predict if any collateral will be held for more than twelve months, the funds deposited by counterparties are classified as a current asset on the Company's balance sheet, with an offsetting liability for this cash collateral received within current liabilities.
Restricted cash consists primarily of funds held by the Company that are restricted due to contractual or legal obligations.
Recent Accounting Developments — Guidance Not Yet Adopted
ASU 2023-09 – In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740) – Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures, or ASU 2023-09. The guidance in ASU 2023-09 enhances income tax disclosures by requiring disclosure of specific categories in the effective tax rate reconciliation and additional information for reconciling items that meet a quantitative threshold. Further the amendments of ASU 2023-09 require certain disclosures on income tax expense and income taxes paid. The Company plans to adopt the new guidance for the annual period ending December 31, 2025, on a prospective basis. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting ASU 2023-09 on its disclosures.
ASU 2024-03 – In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU No. 2024-03, Income Statement—Reporting Comprehensive Income—Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40) – Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses, or ASU 2024-03. The guidance in ASU 2024-03 requires more detailed information about specified categories of expenses included in certain captions presented on the face of the income statement. This ASU is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption is permitted. The amendments may be applied either (1) prospectively to financial statements issued for reporting periods after the effective date of this ASU or (2)

The guidance in ASU 2024-04 clarifies the requirements related to accounting for the settlement of a debt instrument as an induced conversion when changes are made to conversion features as part of an offer to settle the instrument. This ASU is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2025, with early adoption permitted. The amendments may be applied either (1) prospectively to any settlements of convertible debt instruments that occur after the effective date of this ASU or (2) retrospectively to all prior periods presented in the financial statements, with a cumulative adjustment-effect adjustment to equity.

The amendment provides a practical expedient that allows entities to assume that current conditions as of the balance sheet date do not change for the remaining life of the asset when estimating expected credit losses for current accounts receivable and current contract assets. The amendments of ASU 2025-05 should be applied prospectively and are effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2025, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting ASU 2025-05 on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

The revenue recognized from contracts with customers during the three months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024 relating to the deferred revenue balance at the beginning of each period was $285 million and $266 million, respectively. The revenue recognized from contracts with customers during the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024 relating to the deferred revenue balance at the beginning of each period was $430 million and $395 million, respectively. The change in deferred revenue balances during the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024 was primarily due to the timing difference of when consideration was received and when the performance obligation was transferred.

Note 4 — Acquisitions
Acquisitions
Anticipated Acquisition of LSP Portfolio
On May 12, 2025, NRG entered into a definitive agreement with LS Power to acquire a power portfolio including 13 GW of natural gas-fired generation facilities and a commercial & industrial virtual power plant platform with 6 GW of capacity (the “C&I VPP”). The consideration will consist of 24.25 million shares of NRG common stock and $6.4 billion in cash, subject to working capital adjustments as set forth in the purchase agreement. As part of the transaction, NRG will also assume $3.2 billion of debt. The Company expects to fund the cash portion of the consideration using a combination of newly-issued debt and cash on hand. The acquisition is expected to close in the first quarter of 2026, and is subject to the satisfaction or waiver of specified closing conditions, consents and regulatory approvals, including Hart-Scott-Rodino (“HSR”), FERC, DOJ, and the New York State Public Service Commission (“NYSPSC”). The definitive agreement also provides that, upon termination of the agreement under certain specified circumstances, NRG will be required to pay LS Power a termination fee of $400 million.
In connection with the anticipated acquisition of the LSP Portfolio, NRG entered into a commitment letter for a 364-day Senior Secured Bridge Facility (the “Bridge Facility”) in a principal amount not to exceed $4.4 billion for the purposes of paying a portion of the cash consideration for the anticipated acquisition and paying fees and expenses in connection with the acquisition.
Acquisition costs of $23 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, are included in acquisition-related transaction and integration costs in the Company’s consolidated statement of operations.
Acquisition of Texas Generation Portfolio
On April 10, 2025, the Company acquired all of the ownership interests of six power generation facilities from Rockland Capital, LLC, adding 738 MW of natural gas-fired assets in Texas to its portfolio for $560 million in cash consideration, less $1 million in initial working capital adjustments. The acquisition enhances NRG’s integrated supply strategy with critical peaking and baseload capacity in key load zones across Texas.
Acquisition costs of $6 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, are included in acquisition-related transaction and integration costs in the Company’s consolidated statement of operations.
The acquisition has been recorded as a business combination under ASC 805 with identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed provisionally recorded at their estimated fair values on the acquisition date. The initial accounting for the business combination is not complete because the evaluation necessary to assess the fair value of certain net assets acquired is still in process. The provisional amounts are subject to revision until the evaluations are completed to the extent that additional information is obtained about the facts and circumstances that existed as of the acquisition closing date.
The purchase price is provisionally allocated as follows:

Note 5 — Fair Value of Financial Instruments
For cash and cash equivalents, funds deposited by counterparties, restricted cash, accounts and other receivables, accounts payable and cash collateral paid and received in support of energy risk management activities, the carrying amounts approximate fair values because of the short-term maturity of those instruments and are classified as Level 1 within the fair value hierarchy.
21

The estimated carrying value and fair value of the Company's long-term debt, including current portion, is as follows:

| June 30, 2025 |  | December 31, 2024
(In millions) | Carrying Amount |  | Fair Value |  | Carrying Amount |  | Fair Value
Convertible Senior Notes(a) | $ | 232 |  |  | $ | 910 |  |  | $ | 232 |  |  | $ | 509 |

(b)Excludes deferred financing costs, which are recorded as a reduction to long-term debt in the Company's consolidated balance sheets
The fair value of the Company's publicly-traded long-term debt and the Term Loan B are based on quoted market prices and are classified as Level 2 within the fair value hierarchy. The estimated fair value of the borrowing under the Revolving Credit Facility approximates the carrying value because the interest rates vary with market interest rates, and is classified as Level 3 within the fair value hierarchy. The following table presents the level within the fair value hierarchy for long-term debt, including current portion, as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024:

Derivative Fair Value Measurements
The fair value of the Company’s contracts primarily consist of non-exchange traded contracts based on consensus pricing provided by independent pricing services. As of June 30, 2025, contracts valued with prices provided by models and other valuation techniques made up 10% of derivative assets and 16% of derivative liabilities.
NRG's significant positions classified as Level 3 include physical and financial natural gas, power, capacity contracts and RECs executed in illiquid markets, FTRs, certain power options and the Consumer Financing Program. The significant unobservable inputs used in developing fair value include illiquid natural gas and power location pricing, which is derived as a basis to liquid locations. The basis spread is based on observable market data when available or derived from historic prices and forward market prices from similar observable markets when not available. Forward capacity prices are based on market information, forecasted future electricity demand and supply, past auctions and internally developed pricing models. REC prices are based on market information and internally developed pricing models. Power options are valued using industry standard option models. The valuation of certain power options includes significant unobservable inputs such as forward volatilities. For FTRs, NRG uses the most recent auction prices to derive the fair value. The Consumer Financing Program derivatives are valued using a discounted cash flow model, with inputs consisting of available market data, such as market yield discount rates, as well as unobservable internally derived assumptions, such as collateral prepayment rates, collateral default rates and credit loss rates.

The fair value of each contract is discounted using a risk-free interest rate. In addition, the Company applies a credit reserve to reflect credit risk, which is calculated based on published default probabilities. As of June 30, 2025, the credit reserve was immaterial. As of December 31, 2024, the credit reserve resulted in a $1 million decrease primarily within cost of operations.
Concentration of Credit Risk
In addition to the credit risk discussion as disclosed in Note 2, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, to the Company's 2024 Form 10-K, the following is a discussion of the concentration of credit risk for the Company's contractual obligations. Credit risk relates to the risk of loss resulting from non-performance or non-payment by counterparties pursuant to the terms of their contractual obligations. NRG is exposed to counterparty credit risk through various activities including wholesale sales, fuel purchases and retail supply arrangements, as well as retail customer credit risk through its retail load activities.
Counterparty Credit Risk
The Company's counterparty credit risk policies are disclosed in its 2024 Form 10-K. As of June 30, 2025, counterparty credit exposure, excluding credit exposure from RTOs, ISOs, registered commodity exchanges and certain long-term agreements, was $1.7 billion and NRG held collateral (cash and letters of credit) against those positions of $585 million, resulting in a Net Exposure of $1.1 billion. NRG periodically receives collateral from counterparties in excess of their exposure. Collateral amounts shown include such excess while Net Exposure shown excludes excess collateral received. Approximately 60% of the Company's exposure before collateral is expected to roll off by the end of 2026. Counterparty credit exposure is valued through observable market quotes and discounted at a risk free interest rate. The following tables highlight net counterparty credit exposure by industry sector and by counterparty credit quality. Net counterparty credit exposure is defined as the aggregate net asset position for NRG with counterparties where netting is permitted under the enabling agreement and includes all cash flow, mark-to-market and NPNS, and non-derivative transactions. The exposure is shown net of collateral held and includes amounts net of receivables or payables.

| Net Exposure(a)(b)
Category by Industry Sector | (% of Total)
Utilities, energy merchants, marketers and other | 69 | %
Financial institutions | 31 |
Total as of June 30, 2025 | 100 | %

| Net Exposure (a)(b)
Category by Counterparty Credit Quality | (% of Total)
Investment grade | 64 | %
Non-investment grade/Non-Rated | 36 |
Total as of June 30, 2025 | 100 | %

(a)Counterparty credit exposure excludes coal transportation contracts because of the unavailability of market prices
(b)The figures in the tables above exclude potential counterparty credit exposure related to RTOs, ISOs, registered commodity exchanges and certain long-term contracts
26

The Company had exposure to one wholesale counterparty in excess of 10% of total Net Exposure as of June 30, 2025. Changes in hedge positions and market prices will affect credit exposure and counterparty concentration.
RTOs and ISOs
The Company participates in the organized markets of CAISO, ERCOT, AESO, IESO, ISO-NE, MISO, NYISO and PJM, known as RTOs or ISOs. Trading in the majority of these markets is approved by FERC, whereas in the case of ERCOT, it is approved by the PUCT, and whereas in the case of AESO and IESO, both exist provincially with AESO primarily subject to Alberta Utilities Commission and the IESO to the Ontario Energy Board. These ISOs may include credit policies that, under certain circumstances, require that losses arising from the default of one member on spot market transactions be shared by the remaining participants. As a result, the counterparty credit risk to these markets is limited to NRG’s share of the overall market and are excluded from the above exposures.
Exchange Traded Transactions
The Company enters into commodity transactions on registered exchanges, notably ICE, NYMEX and Nodal. These clearinghouses act as the counterparty and transactions are subject to extensive collateral and margining requirements. As a result, these commodity transactions have limited counterparty credit risk.
Long-Term Contracts
Counterparty credit exposure described above excludes credit risk exposure under certain long-term contracts, primarily solar under Renewable PPAs. As external sources or observable market quotes are not always available to estimate such exposure, the Company values these contracts based on various techniques including, but not limited to, internal models based on a fundamental analysis of the market and extrapolation of observable market data with similar characteristics. Based on these valuation techniques, as of June 30, 2025, aggregate credit risk exposure managed by NRG to these counterparties was approximately $774 million for the next five years.
Retail Customer Credit Risk
The Company is exposed to retail credit risk through the Company's retail electricity and gas providers as well as through Vivint Smart Home, which serve both Home and Business customers. Retail credit risk results in losses when a customer fails to pay for services rendered. The losses may result from both non-payment of customer accounts receivable and the loss of in-the-money forward value. The Company manages retail credit risk by using established credit policies, which include monitoring of the portfolio and the use of credit mitigation measures such as deposits or prepayment arrangements.
As of June 30, 2025, the Company's retail customer credit exposure to Home and Business customers was diversified across many customers and various industries, as well as government entities. Current economic conditions may affect the Company’s customers’ ability to pay their bills in a timely manner or at all, which could increase customer delinquencies and may lead to an increase in credit losses.
Note 6 — Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities
Energy-Related Commodities
As of June 30, 2025, NRG had energy-related derivative instruments extending through 2036. The Company marks these derivatives to market through the consolidated statement of operations. NRG has executed energy-related contracts extending through 2037 that qualified for the NPNS exception and were therefore exempt from fair value accounting treatment.
On October 1, 2024, the Company elected NPNS for certain existing derivative contracts. Upon election of NPNS, the Company discontinued derivative accounting treatment and will no longer remeasure the derivative contracts at fair value each reporting period. The fair values of these derivative contracts were frozen as of October 1, 2024 and the Company is derecognizing the fair values to earnings at the same time as the contracts mature. The values of these contracts are included in Derivative instruments captions in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Subsequent to the election date, costs associated with these contracts will be recorded when the underlying physical transaction is delivered. These derivative contracts extend through 2036.
Interest Rate Derivatives
NRG is exposed to changes in interest rates through the Company's issuance of debt. To mitigate the Company's interest rate risk, NRG enters into interest rate derivatives, including swaps and treasury locks. As of June 30, 2025, the Company had $700 million of interest rate swaps extending through 2029 to mitigate the risk of the floating rate of the Term Loan B. In July 2025, the Company entered into treasury locks with a total notional amount of $1.4 billion.
27

Foreign Exchange Contracts
NRG is exposed to changes in foreign currency primarily associated with the purchase of U.S. dollar denominated natural gas for its Canadian business. To manage the Company's foreign exchange risk, NRG entered into foreign exchange contracts. As of June 30, 2025, NRG had foreign exchange contracts extending through 2028. The Company marks these derivatives to market through the consolidated statement of operations.
Consumer Financing Program
Under the Consumer Financing Program, Vivint Smart Home pays a monthly fee to financing providers based on either the average daily outstanding balance of the loans or the number of outstanding loans. For certain loans, Vivint Smart Home incurs fees at the time of the loan origination and receives proceeds that are net of these fees. Vivint Smart Home also shares the liability for credit losses, depending on the credit quality of the customer. Due to the nature of certain provisions under the Consumer Financing Program, the Company records a derivative liability that is not designated as a hedging instrument and is adjusted to fair value, measured using the present value of the estimated future payments. Changes to the fair value are recorded through other income, net in the consolidated statement of operations. The following represent the contractual future payment obligations with the financing providers under the Consumer Financing Program that are components of the derivative:
• Vivint Smart Home pays either a monthly fee based on the average daily outstanding balance of the loans, or the number of outstanding loans, depending on the financing provider;
• Vivint Smart Home shares the liability for credit losses depending on the credit quality of the customer; and
• Vivint Smart Home pays transactional fees associated with customer payment processing.
The derivative is classified as a Level 3 instrument. The derivative positions are valued using a discounted cash flow model, with inputs consisting of available market data, such as market yield discount rates, as well as unobservable internally derived assumptions, such as collateral prepayment rates, collateral default rates and credit loss rates. In summary, the fair value represents an estimate of the present value of the cash flows Vivint Smart Home will be obligated to pay to the financing providers for each component of the derivative.

Impact of Derivative Instruments on the Statements of Operations
Unrealized gains and losses associated with changes in the fair value of derivative instruments not accounted for as cash flow and fair value hedges are reflected in current period results of operations.
The following table summarizes the pre-tax effects of economic hedges that have not been designated as cash flow hedges or fair value hedges and trading activity on the Company's consolidated statement of operations. The effect of foreign exchange and commodity hedges are included within revenues and cost of operations. The effect of the interest rate contracts are included within interest expense. The effect of the Consumer Financing Program is included in other income, net.

The reversals of acquired gain positions were valued based upon the forward prices on the acquisition date. The roll-off amounts were offset by realized gains or losses at the settled prices and are reflected in revenue or cost of operations during the same period.
For the six months ended June 30, 2025, the $141 million unrealized gain from open economic hedge positions was primarily the result of an increase in the value of forward positions as a result of increases in ERCOT power prices.
For the six months ended June 30, 2024, the $889 million unrealized gain from open economic hedge positions was primarily the result of an increase in the value of forward positions as a result of increases in ERCOT power prices.
Credit Risk Related Contingent Features
Certain of the Company's trading agreements contain provisions that entitle the counterparty to demand that the Company post additional collateral if the counterparty determines that there has been deterioration in the Company's credit quality, generally termed “adequate assurance” under the agreements, or require the Company to post additional collateral if there were a downgrade in the Company's credit rating. The collateral potentially required for all contracts with adequate assurance clauses that were in a net liability position as of June 30, 2025 was $579 million. The Company is also party to certain marginable agreements under which it has a net liability position, but the counterparty has not called for the collateral due, which was approximately $36 million as of June 30, 2025. In the event of a downgrade in the Company's credit rating and if called for by the counterparty, $13 million of additional collateral would be required for all contracts with credit rating contingent features as of June 30, 2025.
See Note 5, Fair Value of Financial Instruments, for discussion regarding concentration of credit risk.

Retirement of Treasury Stock
During the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, the Company retired shares of treasury stock as detailed below. These retired shares are now included in NRG's pool of authorized but unissued shares. The Company's accounting policy upon the formal retirement of treasury stock is to deduct its par value from common stock and to reflect any excess of cost over par value as a deduction from additional paid-in-capital.

| Total number of treasury shares retired |  | Average price per share |  | Carrying value of treasury shares retired (in millions)
2025 Retirements: |  |  |  |  |
Shares retired during the first quarter of 2025 | 3,070,996 |  |  | $ | 58.23 |  |  | $ | 179 |

Capped Call Options
During the second quarter of 2024, the Company entered into Capped Calls. Each had a strike price of $40.63 per share, subject to certain adjustments, which correspond to the conversion price of the Convertible Senior Notes as of June 30, 2025. The Capped Calls had a cap price of $249.00 per share, subject to certain adjustments, and effectively locked in a conversion premium of $257 million on the remaining $232 million balance of the Convertible Senior Notes. The Capped Calls were separate transactions and not part of the terms of the Convertible Senior Notes. As these transactions met certain accounting criteria, the Capped Calls were recorded in stockholders' equity. In the second quarter of 2024, the Company recorded $253 million as a reduction to additional paid-in capital and a $4 million loss to other income, net to account for the change in the value of the Capped Calls during the calculation period which began on May 31, 2024 and concluded on June 28, 2024. In the second quarter of 2025, the expiration date of the options was extended from June 1, 2025 to July 8, 2025.
Upon the exercise and settlement of the Capped Calls on July 8, 2025, the Company paid a total amount of $292 million, inclusive of the initial conversion premium of $257 million. The Company received 4,210,920 shares of common stock, of which 3,986,335 were issued to the holders of the Convertible Senior Notes upon conversion, and the remaining 224,585 received were retired by the Company as of July 31, 2025.
Preferred Stock
Series A Preferred Stock Dividends
During the quarters ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company declared and paid semi-annual 10.25% dividends of $51.25 per share on its outstanding Series A Preferred Stock, each totaling $33 million.
Note 10 — (Loss)/Income Per Share
Basic (loss)/income per common share is computed by dividing net (loss)/income less cumulative dividends attributable to preferred stock by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Shares issued and treasury shares repurchased during the period are weighted for the portion of the period that they were outstanding. Diluted (loss)/income per share is computed in a manner consistent with that of basic (loss)/income per share while giving effect to all potentially dilutive common shares that were outstanding during the period when there is net income. The relative performance stock units and non-vested restricted stock units are not considered outstanding for purposes of computing basic (loss)/income per share. However, these instruments are included in the denominator for purposes of computing diluted income per share under the treasury stock method for periods when there is net income. The Convertible Senior Notes were convertible, under certain circumstances, into cash or a combination of cash and the Company’s common stock. The Company is including the potential share settlements, if any, in the denominator for purposes of computing diluted income per share under the if converted method for periods when there is net income. The potential shares settlements are calculated as the excess of the Company's conversion obligation over the aggregate principal amount (which will be settled in cash), divided by the average share price for the period.

For the three months ended June 30, 2025, the Company had 3 million of outstanding equity compensation instruments and 4 million of potential share settlement of the Convertible Senior Notes that were not included in the computation of the Company’s diluted loss per share. For all other periods presented, the Company had an insignificant number of outstanding equity instruments that were anti-dilutive and were not included in the computation of the Company's diluted income per share.
Note 11 — Segment Reporting
The Company’s segment structure reflects how management makes financial decisions and allocates resources. The Company manages its operations based on the combined results of the retail and wholesale generation businesses with a geographical focus except for Vivint Smart Home operations which are reported within the Vivint Smart Home segment. Corporate represents the corporate business activities, and corporate shared services, to support the Company’s operating segments. Beginning in the fourth quarter of 2024, Corporate now includes interest expense related to its consolidated debt financing activities and income tax expense related to its consolidated U.S. federal, foreign and state income taxes conforming to the way the Company internally manages and monitors the business. Prior periods amounts have been recast for comparative purposes to reflect this change, which had no impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations, and cash flows. The accounting policies of the segments are the same as those applied in the consolidated financial statements as disclosed in Note 2, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, to the Company’s 2024 Form 10-K.
NRG’s chief operating decision maker ("CODM"), its chief executive officer, uses more than one measure to evaluate the performance of its segments and allocate resources, including net income/(loss) and various non-GAAP financial measures such as adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, or Adjusted EBITDA. Net income/(loss) and Adjusted EBITDA are used to review business performance and allocate resources as it provides a clearer view of segment profitability by focusing on operational performance. Additionally, operating expenses’ impact on each operating segment results are analyzed. On a monthly basis, Adjusted EBITDA is compared against the budget, latest forecast, and prior period.

For the three months ended June 30, 2025, the effective tax rate was higher than the statutory rate of 21%, primarily due to the state tax benefit and permanent differences.
For the six months ended June 30, 2025, the effective tax rate was higher than the statutory rate of 21%, primarily due to the state tax expense, partially offset with favorable permanent differences.
For the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, the effective tax rate was higher than the statutory rate of 21%, primarily due to the state tax expense and permanent differences.
On July 4, 2025, the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (“OBBB”) was enacted into law. The OBBB includes changes to U.S. tax law that will be applicable to NRG beginning in 2025. Any impact of the OBBB on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements will be reflected in the third quarter.
On September 12, 2024, Treasury and the IRS released proposed regulations that provide guidance on the application of the CAMT. The proposed regulations allow the exclusion of unrealized mark-to-market gains and losses, related to qualified hedge transactions, from adjusted financial statement income. The Company will continue to evaluate the applicable corporation status and the impact of the CAMT based on the proposed guidance. NRG as an applicable corporation is subject to the CAMT and has reflected the impact in its current and deferred taxes, however, there is no impact on the Company’s provision for income taxes from the CAMT for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024.
Uncertain Tax Benefits
As of June 30, 2025, NRG had a non-current tax liability of $60 million for uncertain tax benefits from positions taken on various federal and state income tax returns inclusive of accrued interest. For the six months ended June 30, 2025, NRG accrued $1 million of interest relating to the uncertain tax benefits. As of June 30, 2025, NRG had cumulative interest and penalties related to these uncertain tax benefits of $5 million. The Company recognizes interest and penalties related to uncertain tax benefits in income tax expense.
NRG is subject to examination by taxing authorities for income tax returns filed in the U.S. federal jurisdiction and various state and foreign jurisdictions including operations located in Australia and Canada. The Company is no longer subject to U.S. federal income tax examinations for years prior to 2021. With few exceptions, state and Canadian income tax examinations are no longer open for years prior to 2015.

Note 14 — Commitments and Contingencies
Commitments
First Lien Structure
NRG has granted first liens to certain counterparties on a substantial portion of property and assets owned by NRG and the guarantors of its senior debt. NRG uses the first lien structure to reduce the amount of cash collateral and letters of credit that it would otherwise be required to post from time to time to support its obligations under out-of-the-money hedges. To the extent that the underlying hedge positions for a counterparty are out-of-the-money to NRG, the counterparty would have a claim under the first lien program. As of June 30, 2025, all hedges under the first liens were out-of-the-money on a counterparty aggregate basis.
Contingencies
The Company's material legal proceedings are described below. The Company believes that it has valid defenses to these legal proceedings and intends to defend them vigorously. NRG records accruals for estimated losses from contingencies when information available indicates that a loss is probable and the amount of the loss, or range of loss, can be reasonably estimated. As applicable, the Company believes it has established an adequate accrual for the applicable legal matters, including regulatory and environmental matters as further discussed in Note 15, Regulatory Matters, and Note 16, Environmental Matters. In addition, legal costs are expensed as incurred. Management has assessed each of the following matters based on current information and made a judgment concerning its potential outcome, considering the nature of the claim, the amount and nature of damages sought, and the probability of success. Unless specified below, the Company is unable to predict the outcome of these legal proceedings or reasonably estimate the scope or amount of any associated costs and potential liabilities. As additional information becomes available, management adjusts its assessment and estimates of such contingencies accordingly. Because litigation is subject to inherent uncertainties and unfavorable rulings or developments, it is possible that the ultimate resolution of the Company's liabilities and contingencies could be at amounts that are different from its currently recorded accruals and that such difference could be material.
In addition to the legal proceedings noted below, NRG and its subsidiaries are party to other litigation or legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business. In management's opinion, the disposition of these ordinary course matters will not materially adversely affect NRG's consolidated financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.
Environmental Lawsuits
Sierra club et al. v. Midwest Generation LLC — In 2012, several environmental groups filed a complaint against Midwest Generation with the Illinois Pollution Control Board ("IPCB") alleging violations of environmental law resulting in groundwater contamination. In June 2019, the IPCB found in an interim order that Midwest Generation violated the law because it had improperly handled coal ash at four facilities in Illinois and caused or allowed coal ash constituents to impact groundwater. On September 9, 2019, Midwest Generation filed a Motion to Reconsider numerous issues, which the court granted in part and denied in part on February 6, 2020. In 2023, the IPCB held hearings regarding the appropriate relief. Midwest Generation has been working with the Illinois EPA to address the groundwater issues since 2010.

Consumer Lawsuits
Similar to other energy service companies (“ESCOs”) and smart home companies operating in the industry, from time-to-time, the Company and/or its subsidiaries may be subject to consumer lawsuits in various jurisdictions where they sell natural gas, electricity or smart home solutions.
Variable Price Case
Mirkin v. XOOM Energy (E.D.N.Y. Aug. 2019) — XOOM Energy is a defendant in a putative class action lawsuit pending in New York, alleging that XOOM Energy breached its contractual duty to set customer variable rates based on actual and estimated supply costs. The Court denied XOOM's motion for summary judgment and granted class certification. The Second Circuit denied XOOM's request to appeal the class certification grants. XOOM prevailed in its challenge to Mirkin's expert reports. The Court granted XOOM's motion to exclude both reports on damages. As a result, Mirkin has no method to establish damages for its class. The Court is considering whether class certification is still appropriate. Recently, this matter was moved to a new judge for further handling. A trial setting is not expected before Fall 2025. This matter was known and accrued for at the time of the XOOM acquisition.
Telephone Consumer Protection Act ("TCPA") Cases — In the cases set forth below, referred to as the TCPA Cases, such actions involve consumers alleging violations of the Telephone Consumer Protection Act of 1991, as amended, by receiving calls, texts or voicemails without consent in violation of the federal Telemarketing Sales Rule, and/or state counterpart legislation. The underlying claims of each case are similar. The Company denies the allegations asserted by plaintiffs and intends to vigorously defend these matters. These matters were known and accrued for at the time of the Direct Energy acquisition.
There are two putative class actions pending against Direct Energy: (1) Holly Newman v. Direct Energy, LP (D. Md Sept 2021) - Direct Energy filed its Motion to Dismiss asserting the ruling in the Brittany Burk v. Direct Energy (S.D. Tex. Feb 2019) preempts the plaintiff's ability to file suit based on the same facts. The Court denied Direct Energy's motion stating the Court does not have the benefit of all of the facts that were in front of the Burk court to issue a similar ruling. On April 12, 2023, the Court granted Direct Energy’s Motion to Transfer Venue, moving to the case to the Southern District of Texas. The parties are proceeding with written discovery; and (2) Matthew Dickson v. Direct Energy (N.D. Ohio Jan. 2018) - The case was stayed pending the outcome of an appeal to the Sixth Circuit based on the unconstitutionality of the TCPA during the period from 2015-2020. The Sixth Circuit found the TCPA was in effect during that period and remanded the case back to the trial court. Direct Energy refiled its motions along with supplements. On March 25, 2022, the Court granted summary judgment in favor of Direct Energy and dismissed the case. Dickson appealed and the case was sent back to the trial court. The parties conducted fact and expert discovery and Direct Energy submitted its motion for summary judgment in August 2024. The parties are waiting for a ruling from the Court on summary judgment and class certification.
Sales Practice Lawsuit
A Vivint Smart Home competitor has made a claim against Vivint Smart Home alleging, among other things, that Vivint Smart Home's sales representatives used deceptive sales practices. This matter was known and accrued for at the time of the Vivint Smart Home acquisition. CPI Security Systems, Inc. ("CPI") v. Vivint Smart Home, Inc. (W.D.N.C. Sept. 2020) was filed in 2020, went to trial, and in February 2023, the jury issued a verdict against Vivint Smart Home, in favor of CPI for $50 million of compensatory damages and an additional $140 million of punitive damages. Vivint Smart Home appealed. The Fourth Circuit Court of Appeals issued its opinion on July 22, 2025, upholding the trial court’s judgment. Following the decision, the Company increased the accrual for this matter as of June 30, 2025 to the amount of the judgment plus accrued interest. The Company is pursuing additional appellate remedies.
Patent Infringement Lawsuit
SB IP Holdings LLC (“Skybell”) v. Vivint Smart Home, Inc. — On October 23, 2023, a jury in the U.S. District Court, Eastern District of Texas, Sherman Division, issued a verdict against the Company in favor of Skybell for $45 million in damages for patent infringement. The patents that were the basis for the claims made by Skybell were ruled invalid by the U.S. International Trade Commission in November 2021. The Company did not believe the verdict was legally supported and pursued appellate remedies. During the second quarter of 2025, the parties entered into a settlement agreement and dismissed the matter and pending appeals.
Winter Storm Uri Lawsuits
The Company has been named in certain property damage and wrongful death claims that have been filed in connection with Winter Storm Uri in its capacity as a generator and a retail electric provider. Most of the lawsuits related to Winter Storm Uri are consolidated into a single multi-district litigation matter in Harris County District Court. NRG's retail electric providers have since been dismissed from the multi-district litigation. As a power generator, the Company is named in various cases with claims ranging from: wrongful death; personal injury only; property damage and personal injury; property damage only; and
42

subrogation. The First Court of Appeals conditionally granted the generators' mandamus relief, ordering the trial court to grant the generator defendants' Motion to Dismiss. The plaintiffs challenged the ruling and the matters are stayed pending appeals by the various parties. The Company intends to vigorously defend these matters.
Note 15 — Regulatory Matters
Environmental regulatory matters are discussed within Note 16, Environmental Matters.
NRG operates in a highly regulated industry and is subject to regulation by various federal, state and provincial agencies. As such, NRG is affected by regulatory developments at the federal, state and provincial levels and in the regions in which NRG operates. In addition, NRG is subject to the market rules, procedures, and protocols of the various ISO and RTO markets in which NRG participates. These power markets are subject to ongoing legislative and regulatory changes that may impact NRG's wholesale and retail operations.
In addition to the regulatory proceedings noted below, NRG and its subsidiaries are parties to other regulatory proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business or have other regulatory exposure. In management's opinion, the disposition of these ordinary course matters will not materially adversely affect NRG's consolidated financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.
California Station Power — As the result of unfavorable final and non-appealable litigation, the Company accrued a liability associated with consumption of station power at the Company's Encina power plant facility in California after August 30, 2010. The Company believes it has established an appropriate accrual pending potential regulatory action by San Diego Gas & Electric regarding the Company's Encina facility.
NYSPSC - Notice of Apparent Violation — The NYSPSC issued an order referred to as the Retail Reset Order in December 2019 that limited ESCOs’ offers for electric and natural gas to three compliant products: guaranteed savings from the utility default rate, a fixed rate commodity product that is priced at no more than 5% greater than the trailing 12-month average utility supply rate or New York-sourced renewable energy that is at least 50% greater than the prevailing New York Renewable Energy Standard for load serving entities. The order effectively limited ESCOs offers to natural gas customers to only the guaranteed savings and capped fixed term compliant products because no equivalent renewable energy product exists for natural gas. NRG took action to comply with the order when it became effective April 16, 2021. On January 8, 2024, the NYSPSC notified eight of NRG's retail energy suppliers (serving both electricity and natural gas) of alleged non-compliance with New York regulatory requirements. Among other items, the notices allege that the NRG suppliers did not transition existing residential customers to one of the three compliant products authorized by the NYSPSC following the effective date of the order. NRG responded to the notices in February 2024. The Company believes it has complied with the Retail Reset Order and does not agree with the NYSPSC's assertions made in the notice. The outcome of this process has the potential to negatively impact the retail business in New York.
Note 16 — Environmental Matters
NRG is subject to a wide range of environmental laws in the development, construction, ownership and operation of power plants. These laws generally require that governmental permits and approvals be obtained before construction and maintained during operation of power plants. In general, the electric generation industry has faced increasingly stringent requirements regarding air quality, GHG emissions, combustion byproducts, water use and discharge, and threatened and endangered species including several rules promulgated in 2024. In general, future laws are expected to require the addition of emissions controls or other environmental controls or to impose additional restrictions on the operations of the Company's facilities, which could have a material effect on the Company's consolidated financial position, results of operations, or cash flows. At the federal level, the President has issued several Executive Orders that indicate that the current administration intends to ease the regulatory burden on the electric generation industry, which may affect the outcome of the rulemakings and related legal challenges described below. The Company has elected to use a $1 million disclosure threshold, as permitted, for environmental proceedings to which the government is a party.
Air
CPP/ACE Rules — The attention in recent years on GHG emissions has resulted in federal and state regulations. In 2019, the EPA promulgated the ACE rule, which rescinded the CPP, which had sought to broadly regulate CO 2 emissions from the power sector. On January 19, 2021, the D.C. Circuit vacated the ACE rule (but on February 22, 2021, at the EPA's request, stayed the issuance of the portion of the mandate that would vacate the repeal of the CPP). On June 30, 2022, the U.S. Supreme Court held that the "generation shifting" approach in the CPP exceeded the powers granted to the EPA by Congress. On May 9, 2024, the EPA promulgated a rule that repealed the ACE rule and significantly revised the manner in which new combustion-turbine and existing steam EGU's GHG emissions will be regulated including capturing and storing/sequestering CO 2 in some instances. This rule has been challenged by numerous parties in the D.C. Circuit including 27 states with 22 states intervening in support of the rule. The D.C. Circuit held oral arguments related to this rule in December 2024. On February 5, 2025, the
43

DOJ filed a motion asking the court to hold proceedings in abeyance while the EPA evaluates the rule. The court granted the motion on February 19, 2025. On June 17, 2025, the EPA proposed to repeal all GHG emission standards for fossil fuel-fired power plants under Section 111 of the CAA. The EPA is proposing to conclude that GHG emissions from domestic fossil fuel-fired EGUs do not contribute to dangerous air pollution at a level sufficient to invoke the EPA’s authority under CAA Section 111. In addition to its primary proposal to repeal all GHG emission standards for the power sector promulgated in both 2015 and 2024, the EPA has included an alternative proposal to repeal only specific portions.
Cross-State Air Pollution Rule (“CSAPR”) — On March 15, 2023, the EPA signed and released a prepublication version of a final rule that sought to significantly revise the CSAPR to address the good-neighbor obligations of the 2015 ozone NAAQS for 23 states (a Federal Implementation Plan or “FIP”) after earlier having disapproved numerous state plans to address the issue. Several states, including Texas, challenged the EPA's disapproval of their state plans. On May 1, 2023, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit stayed the EPA's disapproval of Texas' and Louisiana's state plans, which disapprovals are a condition precedent to the EPA imposing its plan on Texas and Louisiana. On March 25, 2025, the Fifth Circuit upheld the EPA’s disapproval of Texas’ and Louisiana’s state plans but did not address the FIP. On May 9, 2025, Texas and other parties petitioned the Fifth Circuit for a rehearing with the whole court. On June 5, 2023, the EPA promulgated the FIP. On June 27, 2024, the U.S. Supreme Court stayed the FIP in the 11 states where the rule had not already been stayed. On April 14, 2025, the D.C. Circuit granted the EPA’s request to hold the legal challenges in abeyance while the EPA revisits the rule. The Company cannot predict the outcome of the legal challenges to the various state disapprovals and the final rule promulgated on June 5, 2023.
Regional Haze Proposal — In May 2023, the EPA proposed to withdraw the existing Texas Sulfur Dioxide Trading Program and replace it with unit-specific SO 2 limits for 12 units in Texas to address requirements to improve visibility at National Parks and Wilderness areas. If finalized as proposed, it would result in more stringent SO 2 limits for two of the Company's coal-fired units in Texas. The Company cannot predict the outcome of this proposal.
Mercury and Air Toxics Standards (“MATS”) — On May 7, 2024, the EPA promulgated a final rule that amends the MATS rule by, among other things, increasing the stringency of the filterable particulate matter standard at coal-burning units. The deadline for complying with this more stringent standard had been 2027. On April 8, 2025, the President signed a Proclamation that creates a 2-year exemption for compliance beginning on July 8, 2027 and ending on July 8, 2029 for certain coal units including those owned by the Company. Twenty-three states have challenged this rule in the D.C. Circuit. On June 17, 2025, the EPA proposed to repeal the majority of the 2024 final rule amending the MATS rule. Accordingly, the outcome of this rulemaking is uncertain.
Water
ELG — In 2015, the EPA revised the ELG for Steam Electric Generating Facilities, which imposed more stringent requirements (as individual permits were renewed) for wastewater streams from FGD, fly ash, bottom ash and flue gas mercury control. In 2017, the EPA promulgated a final rule that, among other things, postponed the compliance dates to preserve the status quo for FGD wastewater and bottom ash transport water by two years to November 2020 until the EPA amended the rule. On October 13, 2020, the EPA amended the 2015 ELG rule by: (i) altering the stringency of certain limits for FGD wastewater; (ii) relaxing the zero-discharge requirement for bottom ash transport water; and (iii) changing several deadlines. In 2021, NRG informed its regulators that the Company intends to comply with the ELG by ceasing combustion of coal by the end of 2028 at its domestic coal units outside of Texas, and installing appropriate controls by the end of 2025 at its two plants that have coal-fired units in Texas. On May 9, 2024, the EPA promulgated a rule that revises the ELG by, among other things, further restricting the discharge of (i) FGD wastewater, (ii) bottom ash transport water, and (iii) combustion residual leachate. The rule was challenged in numerous courts, but the cases have been consolidated in the Eighth Circuit of the U.S. Court of Appeals. The outcome of the legal challenges is uncertain. On February 19, 2025, the DOJ filed a motion asking the court to hold proceedings in abeyance while the U.S. presidential administration evaluates the rule, which the court granted. During the second quarter of 2025, the EPA announced its intent to update the 2024 rule to advance the goals of the President Trump’s Unleashing American Energy Executive Order to support electric grid reliability and affordability while maintaining compliance with the Clean Water Act.
Byproducts
In 2015, the EPA finalized the rule regulating byproducts of coal combustion (e.g., ash and gypsum) as solid wastes under the RCRA. On August 21, 2018, the D.C. Circuit found, among other things, that the EPA had not adequately regulated unlined ponds and legacy surface impoundments. On August 28, 2020, the EPA finalized "A Holistic Approach to Close Part A: Deadline to Initiate Closure," which amended the April 2015 Rule to address the August 2018 D.C. Circuit decision and extend some of the deadlines. On November 12, 2020, the EPA finalized "A Holistic Approach to Closure Part B: Alternative Demonstration for Unlined Surface Impoundments," which further amended the April 2015 Rule to, among other things, provide procedures for requesting approval to operate existing ash impoundments with an alternate liner. On May 8, 2024, the EPA promulgated a rule that establishes requirements for: (i) inactive (or legacy) surface impoundments at inactive facilities
44

and (ii) coal combustion residual ("CCR") management units (regardless of how or when the CCR was placed) at regulated facilities. The rule also creates an obligation to conduct site assessments (at all active and certain inactive facilities) to determine whether CCR management units are present. The rule has been challenged in the D.C. Circuit and the outcome of the legal challenges is uncertain.

Energy Regulatory Matters
The Company’s regulatory matters are described in the Company’s 2024 Form 10-K in Item 1, Business — Regulatory Matters. These matters have been updated below and in Note 15, Regulatory Matters.
As participants in wholesale and retail energy markets and owners and operators of power plants, certain NRG entities are subject to regulation by various federal and state government agencies. These include the CFTC, FERC, NRC and the PUCT, as well as other public utility commissions in certain states where NRG's generation or distributed generation assets are located. In addition, NRG is subject to the market rules, procedures and protocols of the various ISO and RTO markets in which it participates. Likewise, certain NRG entities participating in the retail markets are subject to rules and regulations established by the states and provinces in which NRG entities are licensed to sell at retail. NRG must also comply with the mandatory reliability requirements imposed by NERC and the regional reliability entities in the regions where NRG operates.
NRG's operations within the ERCOT footprint are not subject to rate regulation by FERC, as they are deemed to operate solely within the ERCOT market and not in interstate commerce. These operations are subject to regulation by the PUCT.

State and Provincial Energy Regulation
Maryland Legislation — On May 9, 2024, Maryland Governor Wes Moore signed Senate Bill 1 into law, which restricts the competitive retail electric and natural gas market in Maryland, affecting residential customers but not commercial and industrial customers. Key provisions of the law took effect on January 1, 2025. The legislation imposes a price cap on residential contracts tied to a trailing 12-month historical average of utility rates, with only a limited exception for renewable power products. Renewable products must now have their price pre-approved by the Maryland Public Service Commission and source their renewable electricity certificates from within the PJM region. The law also requires that any variable-price contract not contain a change in price more than once a year, except time-of-use contracts, and limits contract terms to 12 months. It requires affirmative consent for the renewal of customer contracts for renewable power products. The law also imposes licensing requirements on energy salespeople. While the law states that it does not impair existing contracts, the Maryland Public Service Commission has ruled that grandfathering of existing contracts will end as of December 31, 2025, and that suppliers must issue separate bills for their charges for all new and renewing contracts as of January 1, 2025. On October 1, 2024, Green Mountain Energy Company, NRG’s renewable electricity provider, along with a retail trade association to which NRG belongs, filed a lawsuit in federal court challenging the constitutionality of Senate Bill 1. On November 18, 2024, the trial court denied the plaintiffs' motion for a preliminary injunction. The plaintiffs, including Green Mountain, have filed an appeal to this denial to the Fourth Circuit Court of Appeals. The appeal is pending.
Regional Regulatory Developments
NRG is affected by rule/tariff changes that occur in the ISO regions. For further discussion on regulatory developments, see Item 1 — Note 15, Regulatory Matters, to the condensed consolidated financial statements.
ERCOT/PUCT
Public Utility Commission of Texas’ Actions with Respect to Wholesale Pricing and Market Design — The PUCT continues to analyze and implement multiple options for promoting increased reliability in the wholesale electric market, including the adoption of a reliability standard for resource adequacy and market-based mechanisms to achieve this standard. The Commission adopted a reliability standard that became effective in September 2024.
In 2023, the Texas Legislature authorized implementation of the Performance Credit Mechanism ("PCM"), which will measure real-time contribution to system reliability and provide compensation for resources to be available, subject to certain "guardrails" such as an absolute annual net cost cap, as part of its adoption of the PUCT Sunset Bill (House Bill 1500). In December 2024, the PUCT decided to shelve implementation of the PCM for the time being. The Texas Legislature also directed the PUCT to implement additional market design changes such as the creation of a new ancillary service called Dispatchable Reliability Reserve Service ("DRRS") to further increase ERCOT's capability to manage net load variability and firming requirements for new generation resources which penalize poor performance during periods of low grid reserves. The PUCT directed ERCOT to implement DRRS as a standalone product which will delay implementation until 2026 or 2027. Both DRRS and a firming requirement are currently in the design phase with final rules yet to be adopted.
Texas Energy Fund — Through Senate Bill 2627, the Texas Legislature created the TEF, which received voter approval in November 2023, and will provide grants and low-interest loans (3%) to incentivize the development of more dispatchable generation and smaller backup generation in ERCOT. The PUCT adopted a rule in March 2024, which establishes the application and participation requirements and the process by which the Texas Energy Fund loan proceeds for dispatchable generation in ERCOT will be distributed. The initial window for submitting loan applications was opened on June 1, 2024 and closed on July 27, 2024. NRG, through its subsidiaries, filed for loan proceeds for three separate projects, totaling more than 1,500 MWs of capacity. The PUCT also adopted a rule for the completion bonus grant program in April 2024, which provides for opportunities for grants of $120,000 per MW for dispatchable generation projects interconnected before June 1, 2026, or $80,000 per MW for dispatchable generation projects interconnected on or after June 1, 2026 but before June 1, 2029, subject to performance requirements. In January 2025, the PUCT began accepting applications for completion bonus grants, and NRG, through its subsidiaries, has filed applications for each of the three projects referenced above. The 89th Texas Legislature passed Senate Bill 2268, which separated the 10,000 MW collective cap on the ERCOT loan and grant programs resulting in a 10,000 MW cap for the loan program and a separate 10,000 MW cap for the completion bonus grant program.
On August 29, 2024, the PUCT approved an initial portfolio of projects to move into a due diligence process with its third-party administrator. T.H. Wharton generation facility's 415 MW gas peaking unit, which is projected to become commercially operational in 2026, was among the projects selected to move into due diligence, and that process is underway. On December 12, 2024, the PUCT approved Cedar Bayou Unit 5’s 689 MW combined cycle generating facility project to move into due diligence. On March 13, 2025, the PUCT approved Greens Bayou Unit 6’s 443 MW gas peaking unit project to move into due diligence. Cedar Bayou Unit 5 and Greens Bayou Unit 6 are projected to become commercially operational in 2028.
On July 31, 2025, NRG entered into a $216 million loan agreement with the PUCT under the TEF to support development at its T.H. Wharton generation facility, which is currently under construction. The TEF loan bears interest at a fixed coupon rate
47

of 3.000% per annum and has a final maturity date of July 31, 2045. The initial disbursement of funds for the TEF loan occurred in July 2025, and commercial operation of the 415 MW facility is expected by summer 2026.
Real-time Co-optimization of Energy and Ancillary Services (“RTC”) — ERCOT is progressing with a multi-year project to upgrade its systems to co-optimize the dispatch of energy and ancillary services in real-time. The RTC project will also replace the Operating Reserve Demand Curve with demand curves for each ancillary service product which will act as the primary scarcity pricing mechanism when energy or ancillary services are in shortage. ERCOT has commenced market trials for testing the RTC project which began in Spring 2025 and will continue through Fall 2025 with production to go-live on December 5, 2025.
Senate Bill 6 (“SB 6”) — On June 20, 2025, the Governor of Texas signed SB 6 into law, which includes various provisions that concern how both ERCOT, transmission and distribution utilities, and power generation companies plan for and serve large loads (defined as 75 MWs and above) in the ERCOT market. SB 6 requires load forecasting by requiring criteria for inclusion into the forecast and by requiring financial commitments upon a request for a large load customer seeking interconnection to begin engineering studies. In addition, SB 6 includes processes by which large loads should be required or incentivized to curtail their operations. At the same time, SB 6 establishes a PUCT regulatory procedure to minimize potential reliability and stranded-cost impacts that may be associated with large load co-locations with power generators that were interconnected to ERCOT as of September 1, 2025. Generators connected to the grid after this date and co-location arrangements that existed as of January 1, 2025 are exempt from this procedure. Finally, SB 6 requires the PUCT to investigate revising the cost allocation and rate design that governs the ERCOT transmission system. PUCT rulemaking will be required for each major component of SB 6.
PJM
Capacity Market Litigation and Reforms — On September 27, 2024, various public interest organizations filed a complaint at FERC against PJM seeking changes to the treatment of RMRs in the capacity market. On November 18, 2024, various state consumer advocates filed a complaint at FERC against PJM seeking revisions to several aspects of PJM’s capacity market, including requiring resources previously subject to categorical exemptions to participate in capacity auctions, longer notice periods for deactivating generating resources, and several other changes. On December 9, 2024, PJM submitted a filing at FERC proposing various capacity market updates regarding the treatment of qualifying resources that are retained under RMR agreements as capacity, retention of a dual-fuel fired combustion turbine plant as the reference resource, and updates to the Non-Performance Charge based on the RTO Net CONE for the 2026/2027 and 2027/2028 Delivery Years. On February 14, 2025, FERC approved PJM’s filings. On December 13, 2024, PJM filed tariff changes to add provisions enabling a one-time reliability-based expansion of the eligibility criteria for PJM’s interconnection process intended to allow a limited number of additional resources to participate in an upcoming interconnection queue. On February 11, 2025, FERC approved PJM’s filing. On December 20, 2024, PJM submitted tariff changes that propose to require all Existing Generation Capacity Resources to offer into the capacity auctions beginning with the 2026/2027 Delivery Year as well as certain enhancements to the Market Seller Offer Cap. On February 20, 2025, FERC approved PJM’s filing. On December 30, 2024, Pennsylvania Governor Josh Shapiro and the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania filed a complaint at FERC alleging that PJM’s demand curve cap is unjust and unreasonable. The complaint seeks to lower the demand curve cap to be 1.5 times net CONE of the reference resource. On January 28, 2025, PJM notified stakeholders that it had reached an agreement with Governor Shapiro, and on February 14, 2025, PJM and Governor Shapiro filed a joint stipulation establishing the capacity market temporary price cap and price floor for the next two auctions and a motion to dismiss the December 30, 2024 complaint. On February 20, 2025, PJM submitted proposed revisions to its tariff to establish a price cap and price floor for the auctions for 2026/2027 and 2027/2028 delivery years. On April 21, 2025, FERC accepted the filing and dismissed the December 30, 2024 complaint filed by Pennsylvania Governor Shapiro in accordance with the February 14, 2025 joint stipulation and motion to dismiss.
Consumer Advocates Complaint — On April 14, 2025, various state consumer advocates filed a Complaint at FERC asking FERC to reprice the 2025/2026 PJM capacity auction results. If FERC were to grant the request, the capacity prices for the 2025/2026 delivery year would be expected to change.
Revisions to PJM Locational Deliverability Area ("LDA") Reliability Requirement — The Base Residual Auction ("BRA") for the 2024/2025 delivery year commenced on December 7, 2022 and closed on December 13, 2022. On December 19, 2022, PJM announced that it would delay the publication of the auction results. On December 23, 2022, PJM made a filing at FERC to revise the definition of LDA Reliability Requirement in the Tariff. This would allow PJM to exclude certain resources from the calculation of the LDA Reliability Requirement. On February 21, 2023, FERC accepted PJM's filing. Multiple parties, including NRG, filed for rehearing. Rehearing was denied by operation of law, and multiple parties, including the Company, filed appeals to the Third Circuit Court of Appeals. On March 12, 2024, the court vacated the portion of the FERC orders that allow PJM to apply the LDA Reliability Requirement to the 2024/2025 capacity auction. On March 29, 2024, PJM filed a petition seeking confirmation as to the capacity commitments rules for the 2024/2025 auction. On April 22, 2024, multiple parties filed a complaint seeking to find the revised rate unjust and unreasonable and implement rates consistent with
48

FERC's February 2023 decision, which was denied on July 9, 2024. Those parties filed an appeal to the Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit on November 5, 2024.
On May 6, 2024, FERC directed PJM to recalculate the 2024/2025 auction results under the Initial LDA Reliability Requirement rules, and further directed PJM to rerun the Third Incremental Auction. PJM published the revised BRA and Third Incremental Auction results on May 8, 2024 and May 23, 2024, respectively. On June 14, 2024, multiple parties filed appeals to the Third Circuit Court of Appeals seeking review of the May 6, 2024 FERC orders approving PJM's petition to restore the original capacity commitment rules for PJM to recalculate the 2024/2025 BRA and the rerun of the 2024/2025 BRA. As a result, the price of capacity for the 2024/2025 delivery year in the Delmarva Power and Light South zone was higher than originally published. This outcome may change depending upon the disposition of the outstanding complaint and appeals.
PJM Base Residual Auction Revisions and Delay — On October 13, 2023, PJM made two filings at FERC. In the first filing, PJM proposed revisions to the Market Seller Offer Cap, which FERC rejected on February 6, 2024. The second filing proposed to make changes to PJM’s resource adequacy risk modeling and capacity accreditation processes, which FERC approved, with condition, on January 20, 2024. The approved changes were in effect for the 2025/2026 BRA that occurred in July 2024. In November 2024, at PJM’s request, FERC approved delays to future BRAs.
On July 22, 2025, PJM announced the results of its Base Residual Auction for the 2026/2027 planning year. The price came in at the FERC-approved cap of $329.17/MW-day for the entire PJM footprint of which NRG cleared approximately 1,008 MWs from the Company’s PJM generation fleet. NRG’s expected capacity revenues from the base residual auction for the 2026/2027 delivery year is approximately $121 million.
Other Regulatory Matters
From time to time, NRG entities may be subject to examinations, investigations and/or enforcement actions by federal, state and provincial licensing and regulatory agencies and may face the risk of penalties for violation of financial services, consumer protections and other applicable laws and regulations.
Environmental Regulatory Matters
NRG is subject to numerous environmental laws in the development, construction, ownership and operation of power plants. These laws generally require that governmental permits and approvals be obtained before construction and maintained during operation of power plants. In general, the electric generation industry has faced increasingly stringent requirements regarding air quality, GHG emissions, combustion byproducts, water use and discharge, and threatened and endangered species including several rules promulgated in 2024. Future laws may require the addition of emissions controls or other environmental controls or impose restrictions on the Company's operations including unit retirements or impose obligations related to historic coal ash use, storage and disposal. At the federal level, the President has issued several Executive Orders that indicate that the current administration intends to ease the regulatory burden on the electric generation industry, which may affect the outcome of the rulemakings and related legal challenges described below. Complying with environmental laws often involves specialized human resources and significant capital and operating expenses, as well as occasionally curtailing operations. NRG decides to invest capital for environmental controls based on the relative certainty of the requirements, an evaluation of compliance options and the expected economic returns on capital.
Several regulations that affect the Company have been and continue to be revised by the EPA, including requirements regarding coal ash, GHG emissions, NAAQS revisions and implementation and effluent limitation guidelines. NRG will evaluate the impact of these regulations as they are revised but cannot fully predict the impact of each until anticipated revisions, legal challenges and reconsiderations are resolved. The Company’s environmental matters are described in the Company’s 2024 Form 10-K in Item 1, Business - Environmental Matters and Item 1A, Risk Factors. These matters have been updated in Note 16, Environmental Matters, to the condensed consolidated financial statements of this Form 10-Q and as follows.
Air
The CAA and related regulations (as well as similar state and local requirements) have the potential to affect air emissions, operating practices and pollution control equipment required at power plants. Under the CAA, the EPA sets NAAQS for certain pollutants including SO 2, ozone, and PM2.5. Many of the Company's facilities are located in or near areas that are classified by the EPA as not achieving certain NAAQS (non-attainment areas). The relevant NAAQS may become more stringent. In March 2024, the EPA increased the stringency of the PM2.5 NAAQS. The Company maintains a comprehensive compliance strategy to address continuing and new requirements. Complying with increasingly stringent air regulations could require the installation of additional emissions control equipment at some NRG facilities or retiring of units if installing such controls is not economic. Significant changes to air regulatory programs affecting the Company are described below.
49

CPP/ACE Rules — The attention in recent years on GHG emissions has resulted in federal and state regulations. In 2019, the EPA promulgated the ACE rule, which rescinded the CPP, which had sought to broadly regulate CO 2 emissions from the power sector. On January 19, 2021, the D.C. Circuit vacated the ACE rule (but on February 22, 2021, at the EPA's request, stayed the issuance of the portion of the mandate that would vacate the repeal of the CPP). On June 30, 2022, the U.S. Supreme Court held that the "generation shifting" approach in the CPP exceeded the powers granted to the EPA by Congress. On May 9, 2024, the EPA promulgated a rule that repealed the ACE rule and significantly revised the manner in which new combustion-turbine and existing steam EGU's GHG emissions will be regulated including capturing and storing/sequestering CO 2 in some instances. This rule has been challenged by numerous parties in the D.C. Circuit including 27 states with 22 states intervening in support of the rule. The D.C. Circuit held oral arguments related to this rule in December 2024. On February 5, 2025, the DOJ filed a motion asking the court to hold proceedings in abeyance while the EPA evaluates the rule. The court granted the motion on February 19, 2025. On June 17, 2025, the EPA proposed to repeal all GHG emission standards for fossil fuel-fired power plants under Section 111 of the CAA. The EPA is proposing to conclude that GHG emissions from domestic fossil fuel-fired EGUs do not contribute to dangerous air pollution at a level sufficient to invoke the EPA’s authority under CAA Section 111. In addition to its primary proposal to repeal all GHG emission standards for the power sector promulgated in both 2015 and 2024, the EPA has included an alternative proposal to repeal just specific portions.
CSAPR — On March 15, 2023, the EPA signed and released a prepublication version of a FIP after earlier having disapproved numerous state plans to address the issue. Several states, including Texas, challenged the EPA's disapproval of their state plans. On May 1, 2023, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit stayed the EPA's disapproval of Texas' and Louisiana's state plans, which disapprovals are a condition precedent to the EPA imposing its plan on Texas and Louisiana. On March 25, 2025, the Fifth Circuit upheld the EPA’s disapproval of Texas’ and Louisiana’s state plans but did not address the FIP. On May 9, 2025, Texas and other parties petitioned the Fifth Circuit for a rehearing with the whole court. On June 5, 2023, the EPA promulgated the FIP. On June 27, 2024, the U.S. Supreme Court stayed the FIP in the 11 states where the rule had not already been stayed. On April 14, 2025, the D.C. Circuit granted the EPA’s request to hold the legal challenges in abeyance while the EPA revisits the rule. The Company cannot predict the outcome of the legal challenges to the various state disapprovals and the final rule promulgated on June 5, 2023.
Regional Haze Proposal — In May 2023, the EPA proposed to withdraw the existing Texas Sulfur Dioxide Trading Program and replace it with unit-specific SO 2 limits for 12 units in Texas to address requirements to improve visibility at National Parks and Wilderness areas. If finalized as proposed, the rule would result in more stringent SO 2 limits for two of the Company's coal-fired units in Texas. The Company cannot predict the outcome of this proposal.
MATS — On May 7, 2024, the EPA promulgated a final rule that amends the MATS rule by, among other things, increasing the stringency of the filterable particulate matter standard at coal-burning units. The deadline for complying with this more stringent standard had been 2027. On April 8, 2025, the President signed a Proclamation that creates a 2-year exemption for compliance beginning on July 8, 2027 and ending on July 8, 2029 for certain coal units including those owned by the Company. Twenty three states have challenged this rule in the D.C. Circuit. On June 17, 2025, the EPA proposed to repeal the majority of the 2024 final rule amending the MATS rule. Accordingly, the outcome of this rulemaking is uncertain. The Company anticipates that the U.S. presidential administration will substantively revise this rule.
Water
The Company is required under the Clean Water Act to comply with intake and discharge requirements, requirements for technological controls and operating practices. As with air quality regulations, federal and state water regulations have become more stringent and imposed new requirements.
ELG — In 2015, the EPA revised the ELG for Steam Electric Generating Facilities, which imposed more stringent requirements (as individual permits were renewed) for wastewater streams from FGD, fly ash, bottom ash and flue gas mercury control. In 2017, the EPA promulgated a final rule that, among other things, postponed the compliance dates to preserve the status quo for FGD wastewater and bottom ash transport water by two years to November 2020 until the EPA amended the rule. On October 13, 2020, the EPA amended the 2015 ELG rule by: (i) altering the stringency of certain limits for FGD wastewater; (ii) relaxing the zero-discharge requirement for bottom ash transport water; and (iii) changing several deadlines. In 2021, NRG informed its regulators that the Company intends to comply with the ELG by ceasing combustion of coal by the end of 2028 at its domestic coal units outside of Texas, and installing appropriate controls by the end of 2025 at its two plants that have coal-fired units in Texas. On May 9, 2024, the EPA promulgated a rule that revises the ELG by, among other things, further restricting the discharge of (i) FGD wastewater, (ii) bottom ash transport water, and (iii) combustion residual leachate. The rule was challenged in numerous courts, but the cases have been consolidated in the Eighth Circuit of the U.S. Court of Appeals. The outcome of the legal challenges is uncertain. On February 19, 2025, the DOJ filed a motion asking the court to hold proceedings in abeyance while the U.S. presidential administration evaluates the rule, which the court granted. During the second quarter of 2025, the EPA announced its intent to update the 2024 rule to advance the goals of the current U.S.
50

Presidential Administration’s Unleashing American Energy Executive Order to support electric grid reliability and affordability while maintaining compliance with the Clean Water Act.
Byproducts
In April 2015, the EPA finalized the rule regulating byproducts of coal combustion (e.g., ash and gypsum) as solid wastes under the RCRA. On July 30, 2018, the EPA promulgated a rule that amended the ash rule by extending some of the deadlines and providing more flexibility for compliance. On August 21, 2018, the D.C. Circuit found, among other things, that the EPA had not adequately regulated unlined ponds and legacy surface impoundments. On August 28, 2020, the EPA finalized "A Holistic Approach to Closure Part A: Deadline to Initiate Closure," which amended the April 2015 Rule to address the August 2018 D.C. Circuit decision and extend some of the deadlines. On November 12, 2020, the EPA finalized "A Holistic Approach to Closure Part B: Alternative Demonstration for Unlined Surface Impoundments," which further amended the April 2015 Rule to, among other things, provide procedures for requesting approval to operate existing ash impoundments with an alternate liner. On May 8, 2024, the EPA promulgated a rule that establishes requirements for: (i) inactive (or legacy) surface impoundments at inactive facilities and (ii) CCR management units (regardless of how or when the CCR was placed) at regulated facilities. The rule also creates an obligation to conduct site assessments (at all active and certain inactive facilities) to determine whether CCR management units are present. The rule has been challenged in the D.C. Circuit and the outcome of the legal challenges is uncertain. The Company anticipates that the U.S. presidential administration will revisit this rule.
Domestic Site Remediation Matters
Under certain federal, state and local environmental laws, a current or previous owner or operator of a facility, including an electric generating facility, may be required to investigate and remediate releases or threatened releases of hazardous or toxic substances or petroleum products. NRG may be responsible for property damage, personal injury and investigation and remediation costs incurred by a party in connection with hazardous material releases or threatened releases. These laws impose liability without regard to whether the owner knew of or caused the presence of the hazardous substances, and the courts have interpreted liability under such laws to be strict (without fault) and joint and several. Cleanup obligations can often be triggered during the closure or decommissioning of a facility, in addition to spills during its operations.
Regional Environmental Developments
Ash Regulation in Illinois — On July 30, 2019, Illinois enacted legislation that required the state to promulgate regulations regarding coal ash at surface impoundments. On April 15, 2021, the state promulgated the implementing regulation, which became effective on April 21, 2021. NRG has applied for initial operating permits and construction permits (for closure and retrofits) as required by the regulation and is waiting for most of its permits to be issued by the Illinois EPA.
Houston Nonattainment for 2008 Ozone Standard — In 2022, the EPA changed the Houston area's classification from Serious to Severe nonattainment for the 2008 Ozone Standard. Accordingly, Texas is required to develop a new control strategy and submit it to the EPA.
Significant Events
The following significant events have occurred during 2025 as further described within this Management's Discussion and Analysis and the condensed consolidated financial statements:
Anticipated Acquisition of LSP Portfolio
On May 12, 2025, NRG entered into a definitive agreement with LS Power to acquire a power portfolio including 13 GW of natural gas-fired generation facilities and the C&I VPP platform with 6 GW of capacity. The consideration will consist of 24.25 million shares of NRG common stock and $6.4 billion in cash, subject to working capital adjustments as set forth in the purchase agreement. As part of the transaction, NRG will also assume $3.2 billion of debt. The acquisition is expected to close in the first quarter of 2026, and is subject to the satisfaction or waiver of specified closing conditions, consents and regulatory approvals, including HSR, FERC, DOJ, and NYSPSC. For further discussion, see Note 4, Acquisitions.
51

Acquisition of Texas Generation Portfolio
On April 10, 2025, the Company acquired all of the ownership interests of six power generation facilities from Rockland Capital, LLC, adding 738 MW of natural gas-fired assets in Texas to its portfolio for $560 million in consideration, less $1 million in initial working capital adjustments. For further discussion, see Note 4, Acquisitions. The Company acquired the following generation facilities:

Name of Facility |  | Power Market |  | Plant Type |  | Primary Fuel |  | Location |  | Net Generation Capacity (MW)(a) |  | % Owned
Victoria |  | ERCOT |  | Fossil |  | Natural Gas |  | TX |  | 290 |  |  | 100.0 | %
Victoria Port II |  | ERCOT |  | Fossil |  | Natural Gas |  | TX |  | 92 |  |  | 100.0 | %

|  |  |  |  |  |  |  | Total |  | 738 |  |  |

(a) Capacity is an estimate as of the acquisition date and can vary depending on factors including weather conditions, operational conditions, and other factors. Additionally, ERCOT requires periodic demonstration of capability, and the capacity may vary individually and in the aggregate from time to time
Capital Allocation
During the six months ended June 30, 2025, the Company completed $600 million of open market share repurchases at an average price of $107.14 per share. Through July 31, 2025, an additional $168 million share repurchases were completed. As of July 31, 2025, $857 million is remaining under the $3.7 billion authorization. See Note 9, Changes in Capital Structure for additional discussion.
In the first quarter of 2025, NRG increased the annual common stock dividend to $1.76 from $1.63 per share, representing an 8% increase from 2024. The Company targets an annual dividend growth rate of 7-9% per share in subsequent years.
Operations
On August 1, 2025, NRG entered into 295 MW of retail agreements to power data centers. The data centers will be constructed on two NRG-owned sites in Texas, with initial powering expected by the second half of 2026, and to be fully online by 2030.
On July 31 2025, NRG entered into a $216 million loan agreement with the PUCT under the TEF to support development at its T.H. Wharton generation facility, which is currently under construction. The TEF loan bears interest at a fixed coupon rate of 3.000% per annum and has a final maturity date of July 31, 2045. The initial disbursement of funds for the TEF loan occurred in July 2025, and commercial operation of the 415 MW facility is expected by summer 2026. In March 2025, the PUCT selected the 443 MW Greens Bayou project to advance to the next phase of due diligence, marking the third NRG project chosen under the TEF due diligence process. This project is expected to be operational in 2028.
On February 13, 2025, NRG signed a strategic Project Development Agreement with GE Vernova (“GEV”) and Kiewit’s subsidiary, TIC, to develop and construct up to 5.4 GW of new gas-fired, combined cycle generation projects. The generation facilities will be owned and operated by NRG. Additionally, NRG has entered into two slot reservation agreements with GEV for the procurement of 2.4 GW of 7HA gas turbines. The first projects under this comprehensive development agreement are expected to commence operations by the end of 2029.
Trends Affecting Results of Operations and Future Business Performance
The Company’s trends are described in the Company’s 2024 Form 10-K in Item 7, M anagement’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations - Business Environment, except for the update below:
Tariffs — NRG’s business is affected by various macroeconomic factors, including tariffs and inflationary trends. The U.S. has implemented, or is considering implementing, higher tariffs on imports into the U.S. Any potential increases in capital and operational expenditures may impact the Company’s procurement and sourcing strategies.

Gross Margin
The Company calculates gross margin in order to evaluate operating performance as revenues less cost of fuel, purchased energy and other costs of sales, mark-to-market for economic hedging activities, contract and emissions credit amortization and depreciation and amortization.
Economic Gross Margin
In addition to gross margin, the Company evaluates its operating performance using the measure of economic gross margin, which is not a GAAP measure and may not be comparable to other companies’ presentations or deemed more useful than the GAAP information provided elsewhere in this report. Economic gross margin should be viewed as a supplement to and not a substitute for the Company's presentation of gross margin, which is the most directly comparable GAAP measure. Economic gross margin is not intended to represent gross margin. The Company believes that economic gross margin is useful to investors as it is a key operational measure reviewed by the Company's management. Economic gross margin is defined as the sum of retail revenue, energy revenue, capacity revenue and other revenue, less cost of fuel, purchased energy and other cost of sales. Economic gross margin does not include mark-to-market gains or losses on economic hedging activities, contract amortization, emissions credit amortization, depreciation and amortization, operations and maintenance, or other cost of operations.

Mark-to-market results consist of unrealized gains and losses on contracts that are not yet settled. The settlement of these transactions is reflected in the same revenue or cost caption as the items being hedged.
The reversals of acquired gain or loss positions were valued based upon the forward prices on the acquisition date.
For the three months ended June 30, 2025, the $1 million loss in revenues from economic hedge positions was driven primarily by the reversal of previously recognized unrealized gains on contracts that settled during the period, largely offset by an increase in the value of open positions in East as a result of decreases in Northeast power prices. The $282 million loss in operating costs and expenses from economic hedge positions was driven primarily by a decrease in the value of open positions in East as a result of decreases in natural gas prices and Northeast power prices, partially offset by the reversal of previously recognized unrealized losses on contracts that settled during the period.
For the three months ended June 30, 2024, the $84 million gain in revenues from economic hedge positions was driven primarily by an increase in the value of East open positions as a result of decreases in PJM power prices. The $791 million gain in operating costs and expenses from economic hedge positions was driven primarily by an increase in the value of open positions in Texas as a result of increases in ERCOT power prices, as well as the reversal of previously recognized unrealized losses on contracts that settled during the period.

Gross Margin
The Company calculates gross margin in order to evaluate operating performance as revenues less cost of fuel, purchased energy and other costs of sales, mark-to-market for economic hedging activities, contract and emissions credit amortization and depreciation and amortization.
Economic Gross Margin
In addition to gross margin, the Company evaluates its operating performance using the measure of economic gross margin, which is not a GAAP measure and may not be comparable to other companies’ presentations or deemed more useful than the GAAP information provided elsewhere in this report. Economic gross margin should be viewed as a supplement to and not a substitute for the Company's presentation of gross margin, which is the most directly comparable GAAP measure. Economic gross margin is not intended to represent gross margin. The Company believes that economic gross margin is useful to investors as it is a key operational measure reviewed by the Company's management. Economic gross margin is defined as the sum of energy revenue, capacity revenue, retail revenue and other revenue, less cost of fuel, purchased energy and other cost of sales. Economic gross margin does not include mark-to-market gains or losses on economic hedging activities, contract and emissions credit amortization, depreciation and amortization, operations and maintenance, or other cost of operations.

For the six months ended June 30, 2025, the $16 million loss in revenues from economic hedge positions was driven primarily by the reversal of previously recognized unrealized gains on contracts that settled during the period and a decrease in the value of East open positions as a result of increases in Northeast power prices. The $64 million gain in operating costs and expenses from economic hedge positions was driven primarily by an increase in the value of Texas open positions as a result of increases in ERCOT power prices, partially offset by the reversal of previously recognized unrealized gains on contracts that settled during the period.
For the six months ended June 30, 2024, the $24 million gain in revenues from economic hedge positions was primarily driven by an increase in the value of newly executed East open positions and decreases in PJM power prices, partially offset by the reversal of previously recognized unrealized gains on contracts that settled during the period. The $1.3 billion gain in operating costs and expenses from economic hedge positions was driven primarily by an increase in the value of Texas open positions as a result of increases in ERCOT power prices, as well as the reversal of previously recognized unrealized gains on contracts that settled during the period.

Liquidity
The principal sources of liquidity for NRG's operating and capital expenditures are expected to be derived from cash on hand, cash flows from operations and financing arrangements. As described in Note 7, Long-term Debt and Finance Leases, to this Form 10-Q, the Company's financing arrangements consist mainly of the Senior Notes, Convertible Senior Notes, Senior Secured First Lien Notes, Senior Credit Facility, Receivables Facility and tax-exempt bonds. The Company also issues letters of credit through bilateral letter of credit facilities and the pre-capitalized trust securities facility.
The Company's requirements for liquidity and capital resources, other than for operating its facilities, can generally be categorized by the following: (i) market operations activities; (ii) debt service obligations, as described in Note 7, Long-term Debt and Finance Leases; (iii) capital expenditures, including maintenance, environmental, and investments and integration; and (iv) allocations in connection with acquisition opportunities, debt repayments, share repurchases and dividend payments to stockholders, as described in Note 9, Changes in Capital Structure.

The consideration will consist of 24.25 million shares of NRG common stock, and $6.4 billion in cash, subject to working capital adjustments as set forth in the purchase agreement. As part of the transaction, NRG will also assume $3.2 billion of debt. The Company expects to fund the cash portion of the consideration using a combination of newly-issued secured debt and cash on hand. The acquisition is expected to close in the first quarter of 2026 and is subject to the satisfaction or waiver of specified closing conditions, consents and regulatory approvals, including HSR, FERC, DOJ, and NYSPSC. For further discussion, see Note 4, Acquisitions.
In connection with the anticipated acquisition of the LSP Portfolio, NRG entered into a commitment letter for the Bridge Facility in a principal amount not to exceed $4.4 billion for the purposes of paying a portion of the consideration for the anticipated acquisition and paying fees and expenses in connection with the anticipated acquisition. See Note 7, Long-term Debt and Finance Leases

Convertible Senior Notes Redemption
On May 15, 2025, the Company issued a notice of redemption for the Convertible Senior Notes. On the Redemption Date, the Company used cash on hand to redeem $12 million in aggregate principal amount of the Convertible Senior Notes, at a redemption price equal to 100.000%. The majority of the Convertible Senior Note holders elected to convert the notes prior to the Redemption Date and received $220 million in cash with respect to the remaining principal amount of the Convertible Senior Notes and a total of 3,986,335 shares for the conversion premium.

of 3.000% per annum and has a final maturity date of July 31, 2045. The initial disbursement of funds for the TEF loan occurred in July 2025.
Liability Management
The Company has currently spent $263 million and intends to spend approximately $12 million from cash from operations on liability management during the remainder of 2025. The Company remains committed to maintaining a strong balance sheet and its targeted credit metrics.
Market Operations
The Company's market operations activities require a significant amount of liquidity and capital resources. These liquidity requirements are primarily driven by: (i) margin and collateral posted with counterparties; (ii) margin and collateral required to participate in physical markets and commodity exchanges; (iii) timing of disbursements and receipts (e.g., buying energy before receiving retail revenues); and (iv) initial collateral for large structured transactions. As of June 30, 2025, market operations had total cash collateral outstanding of $361 million and $2.7 billion outstanding in letters of credit to third parties primarily to support its market activities. As of June 30, 2025, total funds deposited by counterparties were $446 million in cash and $454 million of letters of credit.
Future liquidity requirements may change based on the Company's hedging activities and structures, fuel purchases, and future market conditions, including forward prices for energy and fuel and market volatility. In addition, liquidity requirements are dependent on the Company's credit ratings and general perception of its creditworthiness.
First Lien Structure
NRG has the capacity to grant first liens to certain counterparties on a substantial portion of the Company's assets, subject to various exclusions including NRG's assets that have project-level financing and the assets of certain non-guarantor subsidiaries, to reduce the amount of cash collateral and letters of credit that it would otherwise be required to post from time to time to support its obligations under out-of-the-money hedge agreements. The first lien program does not limit the volume that can be hedged, or the value of underlying out-of-the-money positions. The first lien program also does not require NRG to post collateral above any threshold amount of exposure. The first lien structure is not subject to unwind or termination upon a ratings downgrade of a counterparty and has no stated maturity date.
The Company's first lien counterparties may have a claim on its assets to the extent market prices exceed the hedged prices. As of June 30, 2025, all hedges under the first liens were out-of-the-money on a counterparty aggregate basis.
Capital Expenditures
The following table summarizes the Company's capital expenditures for maintenance, environmental and investments and integration for the six months ended June 30, 2025, and the estimated forecast for the remainder of the year.

(a)Capital expenditures exclude W.A. Parish insurance proceeds of $100 million
72

Investments and Integration for the six months ended June 30, 2025 include growth expenditures, integration, small book acquisitions and other investments.
Environmental Capital Expenditures Estimate
NRG estimates that environmental capital expenditures from 2025 through 2029 required to comply with environmental laws will be approximately $73 million, primarily driven by the cost of complying with ELG at the Company's coal units in Texas.
Share Repurchases
During the six months ended June 30, 2025, the Company completed $600 million of open market share repurchases at an average price of $107.14 per share. Through July 31, 2025, an additional $168 million of share repurchases were completed. As of July 31, 2025, $857 million is remaining under the $3.7 billion authorization. See Note 9, Changes in Capital Structure for additional discussion.
Common Stock Dividends
During the first quarter of 2025, NRG increased the annual dividend to $1.76 from $1.63 per share. A quarterly dividend of $0.44 per share was paid on the Company's common stock during the three months ended June 30, 2025. On July 21, 2025, NRG declared a quarterly dividend on the Company's common stock of $0.44 per share, payable on August 15, 2025 to stockholders of record as of August 1, 2025. The Company targets an annual dividend growth rate of 7%-9% per share in subsequent years.
Series A Preferred Stock Dividends
During the quarter ended March 31, 2025, the Company declared and paid a semi-annual 10.25% dividend of $51.25 per share on its outstanding Series A Preferred Stock, totaling $33 million.
Obligations under Certain Guarantees
NRG and its subsidiaries enter into various contracts that include indemnifications and guarantee provisions as a routine part of the Company’s business activities. For further discussion, see Note 26, Guarantees, to the Company's 2024 Form 10-K.
Obligations Arising Out of a Variable Interest in an Unconsolidated Entity
Variable interest in equity investments — NRG’s investment in Ivanpah is a variable interest entity for which NRG is not the primary beneficiary. NRG's pro-rata share of non-recourse debt was approximately $461 million as of June 30, 2025. This indebtedness may restrict the ability of Ivanpah to issue dividends or distributions to NRG.
Contractual Obligations and Market Commitments
NRG has a variety of contractual obligations and other market commitments that represent prospective cash requirements in addition to the Company's capital expenditure programs, as disclosed in the Company's 2024 Form 10-K. See also Note 7, Long-term Debt and Finance Leases, and Note 14, Commitments and Contingencies, to this Form 10-Q for a discussion of new commitments and contingencies that also include contractual obligations and market commitments that occurred during the three and six months ended June 30, 2025.

NOLs, Deferred Tax Assets and Uncertain Tax Position Implications, under ASC 740
For the six months ended June 30, 2025, the Company had domestic pre-tax book income of $780 million and foreign pre-tax book income of $52 million. As of December 31, 2024, the Company had cumulative U.S. federal NOL carryforwards of $7 billion, of which $5.3 billion do not have an expiration date, and cumulative state NOL carryforwards of $6.1 billion for financial statement purposes. NRG also has cumulative foreign NOL carryforwards of $394 million, most of which do not have an expiration date. In addition to the above NOLs, NRG has a $274 million indefinite carryforward for interest deductions, as well as $269 million of tax credits, inclusive of $61 million CAMT credits to be utilized in future years. As a result of the Company's tax position, including the utilization of federal and state NOLs, and based on current forecasts, the Company anticipates net income tax payments due to federal, state and foreign jurisdictions of up to $125 million in 2025, excluding the impact of the proposed CAMT regulations. NRG as an applicable corporation is subject to the CAMT, and has reflected the impact in its current and deferred taxes, however, there is no impact on the Company's provision for income taxes from the CAMT for the six months ended June 30, 2025.
As of June 30, 2025, the Company has $55 million of tax-effected uncertain federal and state tax benefits, for which the Company has recorded a non-current tax liability of $60 million (inclusive of accrued interest) until final resolution is reached with the related taxing authority.
On December 31, 2021, the OECD released rules which set forth a common approach to a global minimum tax at 15% for multinational companies, which has been enacted into law by certain countries effective for 2024. The Company's preliminary analysis indicates that there is no material impact to the Company's financial statements from these rules.
74

The Company is no longer subject to U.S. federal income tax examinations for years prior to 2021. With few exceptions, state and Canadian income tax examinations are no longer open for years prior to 2015.
On July 4, 2025, OBBB was enacted into law. The OBBB includes changes to U.S. tax law that will be applicable to NRG beginning in 2025, such as the permanent extension of certain expiring provisions of the TCJA, modifications to the international tax framework and the restoration of favorable tax treatment for certain business provisions. Any impact of the OBBB on the Company’s consolidated financial statements will be reflected in the third quarter.
Deferred tax assets and valuation allowance
Net deferred tax balance — As of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, NRG recorded a net deferred tax asset, excluding valuation allowance, of $2.1 billion and $2.2 billion, respectively. The Company believes certain state net operating losses may not be realizable under the more-likely-than-not measurement and as such, a valuation allowance was recorded as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024 as discussed below.
NOL Carryforwards — As of June 30, 2025, the Company had a tax-effected cumulative U.S. NOLs consisting of carryforwards for federal and state income tax purposes of $1.5 billion and $341 million, respectively. The Company estimates it will generate future taxable income to fully realize the net federal deferred tax asset before the expiration of certain carryforwards commences in 2030. In addition, NRG has tax-effected cumulative foreign NOL carryforwards of $111 million.
Valuation Allowance — As of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the Company’s tax-effected valuation allowance was $149 million and $144 million, respectively consisting of state NOL carryforwards and foreign NOL carryforwards. The valuation allowance was recorded based on the assessment of cumulative and forecasted pre-tax book earnings and the future reversal of existing taxable temporary differences.
Guarantor Financial Information
As of June 30, 2025, the Company's outstanding registered senior notes consisted of $821 million of the 2028 Senior Notes as shown in Note 7, Long-term Debt and Finance Leases. These Senior Notes are guaranteed by certain of NRG's current and future 100% owned domestic subsidiaries, or guarantor subsidiaries (the “Guarantors”). See Exhibit 22.1 to this Form 10-Q for a listing of the Guarantors. These guarantees are both joint and several.
NRG conducts much of its business through and derives much of its income from its subsidiaries. Therefore, the Company's ability to make required payments with respect to its indebtedness and other obligations depends on the financial results and condition of its subsidiaries and NRG's ability to receive funds from its subsidiaries. There are no restrictions on the ability of any of the Guarantors to transfer funds to NRG. Other subsidiaries of the Company do not guarantee the registered debt securities of either NRG Energy, Inc. or the Guarantors (such subsidiaries are referred to as the “Non-Guarantors”). The Non-Guarantors include all of NRG's foreign subsidiaries and certain domestic subsidiaries.
The following tables present summarized financial information of NRG Energy, Inc. and the Guarantors in accordance with Rule 3-10 under the SEC's Regulation S-X. The financial information may not necessarily be indicative of the results of operations or financial position of NRG Energy, Inc. and the Guarantors in accordance with U.S. GAAP.

Fair Value of Derivative Instruments
NRG may enter into power purchase and sales contracts, fuel purchase contracts and other energy-related financial instruments to mitigate variability in earnings due to fluctuations in spot market prices and to hedge fuel requirements at power plants or retail load obligations. In order to mitigate interest rate risk associated with the issuance of the Company's debt, NRG enters into interest rate derivatives. In addition, in order to mitigate foreign exchange rate risk primarily associated with the purchase of U.S. dollar denominated natural gas for the Company's Canadian business, NRG enters into foreign exchange contract agreements.
Under Flex Pay, offered by Vivint Smart Home, customers pay for smart home products by obtaining financing from a third-party financing provider under the Consumer Financing Program. Vivint Smart Home pays certain fees to the financing providers and shares in credit losses depending on the credit quality of the customer.
NRG's trading activities are subject to limits in accordance with the Company's Risk Management Policy. These contracts are recognized on the balance sheet at fair value and changes in the fair value of these derivative financial instruments are recognized in earnings.
The following tables disclose the activities that include both exchange and non-exchange traded contracts accounted for at fair value in accordance with ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures ("ASC 820"). Specifically, these tables disaggregate realized and unrealized changes in fair value; disaggregate estimated fair values as of June 30, 2025, based on their level within the fair value hierarchy defined in ASC 820; and indicate the maturities of contracts at June 30, 2025. For a full discussion of the Company's valuation methodology of its contracts, see Derivative Fair Value Measurements in Note 5, Fair Value of Financial Instruments.

(a)Excludes $716 million of derivative contracts that were elected as NPNS on October 1, 2024 and are no longer valued at fair value on a recurring basis. For further discussion, see Note 6, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities
The Company has elected to disclose derivative assets and liabilities on a trade-by-trade basis and does not offset amounts at the counterparty master agreement level. Also, collateral received or posted on the Company's derivative assets or liabilities are recorded on a separate line item on the balance sheet. Consequently, the magnitude of the changes in individual current and non-current derivative assets or liabilities is higher than the underlying credit and market risk of the Company's portfolio. As
76

discussed in Item 3, Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk — Commodity Price Risk, to this Form 10-Q, NRG measures the sensitivity of the Company's portfolio to potential changes in market prices using VaR, a statistical model which attempts to predict risk of loss based on market price and volatility. NRG's Risk Management Policy places a limit on one-day holding period VaR, which limits the Company's net open position. As the Company's trade-by-trade derivative accounting results in a gross-up of the Company's derivative assets and liabilities, the net derivative asset and liability position is a better indicator of NRG's hedging activity. As of June 30, 2025, NRG's net derivative asset was $850 million, a decrease to total fair value of $142 million as compared to December 31, 2024. This decrease was driven by Texas Generation Portfolio contracts acquired and the roll-off of trades that settled during the period, partially offset by gains in fair value.
Based on a sensitivity analysis using simplified assumptions, the impact of a $0.50 per MMBtu increase in natural gas prices across the term of the derivative contracts would result in an increase of approximately $899 million in the net value of derivatives as of June 30, 2025. The impact of a $0.50 per MMBtu decrease in natural gas prices across the term of the derivative contracts would result in a decrease of approximately $895 million in the net value of derivatives as of June 30, 2025.
Critical Accounting Estimates
NRG's discussion and analysis of the financial condition and results of operations are based upon the condensed consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with GAAP. The preparation of these financial statements and related disclosures in compliance with GAAP requires the application of appropriate technical accounting rules and guidance as well as the use of estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities. The application of appropriate technical accounting rules and guidance involves judgments regarding future events, including the likelihood of success of particular projects, legal and regulatory challenges, and the fair value of certain assets and liabilities. These judgments, in and of themselves, could materially affect the financial statements and disclosures based on varying assumptions, which may be appropriate to use. In addition, the financial and operating environment may also have a significant effect, not only on the operation of the business, but on the results reported through the application of accounting measures used in preparing the financial statements and related disclosures, even if the nature of the accounting policies has not changed.
NRG evaluates these estimates, on an ongoing basis, utilizing historic experience, consultation with experts and other methods the Company considers reasonable. In any event, actual results may differ substantially from the Company's estimates. Any effects on the Company's business, financial position or results of operations resulting from revisions to these estimates are recorded in the period in which the information that gives rise to the revision becomes known.
The Company identifies its most critical accounting estimates as those that are the most pervasive and important to the portrayal of the Company's financial position and results of operations, and require the most difficult, subjective and/or complex judgments by management regarding estimates about matters that are inherently uncertain.
The Company's critical accounting estimates are described in Part II, Item 7, Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, in the Company's 2024 Form 10-K. There have been no material changes to the Company's critical accounting estimates since the 2024 Form 10-K.
77

ITEM 3 — QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
NRG is exposed to several market risks in the Company's normal business activities. Market risk is the potential loss that may result from market changes associated with the Company's retail operations, merchant power generation or with existing or forecasted financial or commodity transactions. The types of market risks the Company is exposed to are commodity price risk, credit risk, liquidity risk, interest rate risk and currency exchange risk. The following disclosures about market risk provide an update to, and should be read in conjunction with, Item 7A, Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk, of the Company's 2024 Form 10-K.
Commodity Price Risk
Commodity price risks result from exposures to changes in spot prices, forward prices, volatilities and correlations between various commodities, such as natural gas, electricity, coal, oil and emissions credits. NRG manages the commodity price risk of the Company's load serving obligations and merchant generation operations by entering into various derivative or non-derivative instruments to hedge the variability in future cash flows from forecasted sales and purchases of energy and fuel. NRG measures the risk of the Company's portfolio using several analytical methods, including sensitivity tests, scenario tests, stress tests, position reports and VaR. NRG uses a Monte Carlo simulation based VaR model to estimate the potential loss in the fair value of its energy assets and liabilities, which includes generation assets, gas transportation and storage assets, load obligations and bilateral physical and financial transactions, based on historical and forward values for factors such as customer demand, weather, commodity availability and commodity prices. The Company's VaR model is based on a one-day holding period at a 95% confidence interval for the forward 36 months, not including the spot month. The VaR model is not a complete picture of all risks that may affect the Company's results. Certain events such as counterparty defaults, regulatory changes, and extreme weather and prices that deviate significantly from historically observed values are not reflected in the model.
The following table summarizes average, maximum and minimum VaR for NRG's commodity portfolio, calculated using the VaR model for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024:

(In millions) | 2025 |  | 2024
VaR as of June 30, | $ | 60 |  |  | $ | 57 |
Three months ended June 30, |  |  |
Average | $ | 64 |  |  | $ | 66 |
Maximum | 74 |  |  | 75 |
Minimum | 49 |  |  | 55 |
Six months ended June 30, |  |  |
Average | $ | 59 |  |  | $ | 63 |
Maximum | 74 |  |  | 75 |
Minimum | 47 |  |  | 51 |

The Company also uses VaR to estimate the potential loss of derivative financial instruments that are subject to mark-to-market accounting. These derivative instruments include transactions that were entered into for both asset management and trading purposes. The VaR for the derivative financial instruments calculated using the diversified VaR model for the entire term of these instruments entered into for both asset management and trading, was $119 million, as of June 30, 2025, primarily driven by asset-backed and hedging transactions.
Credit Risk
Credit risk relates to the risk of loss resulting from non-performance or non-payment by counterparties pursuant to the terms of their contractual obligations. NRG is exposed to counterparty credit risk through various activities including wholesale sales, fuel purchases and retail supply arrangements, and retail customer credit risk through its retail sales. Counterparty credit risk and retail customer credit risk are discussed below. See Note 6, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities, to this Form 10-Q for discussion regarding credit risk contingent features.
Counterparty Credit Risk
The Company's counterparty credit risk policies are disclosed in its 2024 Form 10-K. As of June 30, 2025, counterparty credit exposure, excluding credit exposure from RTOs, ISOs, registered commodity exchanges and certain long-term agreements, was $1.7 billion and NRG held collateral (cash and letters of credit) against those positions of $585 million, resulting in a Net Exposure of $1.1 billion. NRG periodically receives collateral from counterparties in excess of their exposure. Collateral amounts shown include such excess while Net Exposure shown excludes excess collateral received. Approximately 60% of the Company's exposure before collateral is expected to roll off by the end of 2026. Counterparty credit exposure is valued through observable market quotes and discounted at a risk free interest rate. The following tables highlight net
78

counterparty credit exposure by industry sector and by counterparty credit quality. Net counterparty credit exposure is defined as the aggregate net asset position for NRG with counterparties where netting is permitted under the enabling agreement and includes all cash flow, mark-to-market and NPNS, and non-derivative transactions. The exposure is shown net of collateral held and includes amounts net of receivables or payables.

| Net Exposure(a)(b)
Category by Industry Sector | (% of Total)
Utilities, energy merchants, marketers and other | 69 | %
Financial institutions | 31 |
Total as of June 30, 2025 | 100 | %

| Net Exposure (a)(b)
Category by Counterparty Credit Quality | (% of Total)
Investment grade | 64 | %
Non-investment grade/Non-Rated | 36 |
Total as of June 30, 2025 | 100 | %

(a)Counterparty credit exposure excludes coal transportation contracts because of the unavailability of market prices
(b)The figures in the tables above exclude potential counterparty credit exposure related to RTOs, ISOs, registered commodity exchanges and certain long-term contracts
The Company had exposure to one wholesale counterparty in excess of 10% of total Net Exposure as of June 30, 2025. Changes in hedge positions and market prices will affect credit exposure and counterparty concentration.
RTOs and ISOs
The Company participates in the organized markets of CAISO, ERCOT, AESO, IESO, ISO-NE, MISO, NYISO and PJM, known as RTOs or ISOs. Trading in the majority of these markets is approved by FERC, whereas in the case of ERCOT, it is approved by the PUCT, and whereas in the case of AESO and IESO, both exist provincially with AESO primarily subject to Alberta Utilities Commission and the IESO to the Ontario Energy Board. These ISOs may include credit policies that, under certain circumstances, require that losses arising from the default of one member on spot market transactions be shared by the remaining participants. As a result, the counterparty credit risk to these markets is limited to NRG’s share of the overall market and are excluded from the above exposures.
Exchange Traded Transactions
The Company enters into commodity transactions on registered exchanges, notably ICE, NYMEX and Nodal. These clearinghouses act as the counterparty and transactions are subject to extensive collateral and margining requirements. As a result, these commodity transactions have limited counterparty credit risk.
Long-Term Contracts
Counterparty credit exposure described above excludes credit risk exposure under certain long-term contracts, primarily solar under Renewable PPAs. As external sources or observable market quotes are not always available to estimate such exposure, the Company values these contracts based on various techniques including, but not limited to, internal models based on a fundamental analysis of the market and extrapolation of observable market data with similar characteristics. Based on these valuation techniques, as of June 30, 2025, aggregate credit risk exposure managed by NRG to these counterparties was approximately $774 million for the next five years.
Retail Customer Credit Risk
The Company is exposed to retail credit risk through the Company's retail electricity and gas providers as well as through Vivint Smart Home, which serve both Home and Business customers. Retail credit risk results in losses when a customer fails to pay for services rendered. The losses may result from both non-payment of customer accounts receivable and the loss of in-the-money forward value. The Company manages retail credit risk through the use of established credit policies, which include monitoring of the portfolio and the use of credit mitigation measures such as deposits or prepayment arrangements.
As of June 30, 2025, the Company's retail customer credit exposure to Home and Business customers was diversified across many customers and various industries, as well as government entities. Current economic conditions may affect the Company’s customers’ ability to pay their bills in a timely manner or at all, which could increase customer delinquencies and may lead to an increase in credit losses.
79

Liquidity Risk
Liquidity risk arises from the general funding needs of the Company's activities and in the management of the Company's assets and liabilities. The Company is currently exposed to additional collateral posting if natural gas prices decline, primarily due to the long natural gas equivalent position at various exchanges used to hedge NRG's retail supply load obligations.
Based on a sensitivity analysis for power and gas positions under marginable contracts as of June 30, 2025, a $0.50 per MMBtu decrease in natural gas prices across the term of the marginable contracts would cause an increase in margin collateral posted of approximately $893 million and a 1.00 MMBtu/MWh decrease in Heat Rates for Heat Rate positions would result in an increase in margin collateral posted of approximately $283 million. This analysis uses simplified assumptions and is calculated based on portfolio composition and margin-related contract provisions as of June 30, 2025.
Interest Rate Risk
NRG is exposed to fluctuations in interest rates through its issuance of debt. Exposures to interest rate fluctuations may be mitigated by entering into derivative instruments known as interest rate swaps, treasury locks, caps, collars and put or call options. These contracts reduce exposure to interest rate volatility when taking into account the combinations of the debt and the interest rate derivative instrument. NRG's management policies allow the Company to reduce interest rate exposure. The Company has $700 million of interest rate swaps extending through 2029 to mitigate the risk of the floating rate of the Term Loan B. In July 2025, the Company entered into treasury locks with a total notional amount of $1.4 billion.
As of June 30, 2025, the fair value and related carrying value of the Company's debt was $11.6 billion and $11.0 billion, respectively. NRG estimates that a 1% decrease in market interest rates would have increased the fair value of the Company's long-term debt as of June 30, 2025 by $441 million.
Currency Exchange Risk
NRG is subject to transactional exchange rate risk from transactions with customers in countries outside of the United States, primarily within Canada, as well as from intercompany transactions between affiliates. Transactional exchange rate risk arises from the purchase and sale of goods and services in currencies other than the Company's functional currency or the functional currency of an applicable subsidiary. NRG hedges a portion of its forecasted currency transactions with foreign exchange forward contracts. As of June 30, 2025, NRG is exposed to changes in foreign currency primarily associated with the purchase of U.S. dollar denominated natural gas for its Canadian business and entered into foreign exchange contracts with a notional amount of $350 million.
The Company is subject to translation exchange rate risk related to the translation of the financial statements of its foreign operations into U.S. dollars. Costs incurred and sales recorded by subsidiaries operating outside of the United States are translated into U.S. dollars using exchange rates effective during the respective period. As a result, the Company is exposed to movements in the exchange rates of various currencies against the U.S. dollar, primarily the Canadian and Australian dollars. A hypothetical 10% appreciation in major currencies relative to the U.S. dollar as of June 30, 2025 would have resulted in a decrease of $3 million to net income within the consolidated statement of operations.
ITEM 4 — CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Conclusion Regarding the Effectiveness of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Under the supervision and with the participation of NRG's management, including its principal executive officer, principal financial officer and principal accounting officer, NRG conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of its disclosure controls and procedures, as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) or 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act. Based on this evaluation, the Company's principal executive officer, principal financial officer and principal accounting officer concluded that the disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There were no changes in NRG's internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that occurred in the quarter ended June 30, 2025 that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, NRG's internal control over financial reporting.

ITEM 1A — RISK FACTORS
Except as set forth below, there have been no material changes to the Risk Factors disclosed in Part I, Item 1A, Risk Factors, of the Company's 2024 Form 10-K.
Risks Related to the Anticipated Acquisition of the LSP Portfolio
The Company may encounter difficulties in satisfying the closing conditions set forth in the purchase agreement relating to the anticipated acquisition of the LSP Portfolio, including obtaining the necessary governmental and regulatory approvals, within the expected time frame or at all.
Consummation of the acquisition of the LSP Portfolio is subject to the satisfaction or waiver of certain closing conditions, including: (i) the receipt of required governmental and regulatory approvals; (ii) the expiration or termination of the applicable waiting period under the HSR Act; and (iii) other customary closing conditions. Completion of the acquisition is conditioned upon the receipt of various consents, orders, approvals or clearances from various regulatory authorities, including DOJ, FERC, and public utility commissions or similar entities in certain states in which the LSP Portfolio operates.
The Company cannot provide assurance that all required regulatory approvals will be obtained, in a timely manner or at all, or that these approvals will not contain terms, conditions or restrictions that would be unacceptable and, accordingly, the acquisition may be delayed or may not be consummated.
The purchase agreement with LS Power provides that either NRG or LS Power could terminate the LSP Portfolio purchase agreement if the acquisition is not completed by May 12, 2026 (which date may be automatically extended for up to six consecutive one-month periods). If the agreement is terminated under certain circumstances due to the failure to obtain regulatory approvals or if there are any legal restraints prohibiting the consummation of the acquisition, NRG would be required to pay LS Power a termination fee of $400 million as liquidated damages.
In the event the transaction is not consummated, the share price of NRG common stock may decline to the extent that the current market price reflects an assumption by the market that the acquisition will be completed.
The Company may not realize all the expected benefits of the acquisition.
The Company entered into the purchase agreement with LS Power with the expectation that the acquisition would result in various benefits, including enhanced generation capabilities. Achieving the anticipated benefits of the acquisition is subject to a number of uncertainties, including whether the assets and businesses of NRG and the LSP Portfolio can be integrated in an efficient and effective manner. Failure to achieve these anticipated benefits could result in increased costs and/or lower-than-expected revenues or income generated by the Company after the completion of the acquisition.
The assets, liabilities and results of operations of LSP Portfolio could be negatively affected by unknown or unexpected events, conditions or actions prior to the closing of the acquisition.
The Company will not control the LSP Portfolio until completion of the anticipated acquisition and the assets, liabilities, business, financial condition, cash flows, operating results and prospects of the LSP Portfolio to be acquired or assumed by the Company could be negatively impacted before or after the closing as a result of previously unknown events or conditions occurring or existing before the acquisition closes. Adverse changes in its business or operations could occur or arise as a result of actions undertaken by LS Power, legal or regulatory developments, deteriorating general business, market, industry or economic conditions, and other factors both within and beyond the control of LS Power or NRG. A significant decline in the value of the assets to be acquired or a significant increase in the liabilities to be assumed could negatively impact the Company’s future business, operating results, cash flows, financial conditions or prospects following the completion of the acquisition. In addition, there could be potential unknown liabilities and unforeseen expenses as a result of the acquisition, some of which NRG may not discover during due diligence or adequately adjust for in the purchase arrangements.
The market price of shares of the Company’s common stock may be adversely affected as a result of the anticipated LSP Portfolio acquisition.
On completion of the anticipated LSP Portfolio acquisition, a significant number of additional shares of the Company’s common stock will be issued and available for trading in the public market. The increase in the number of shares of the
81

Company’s common stock may lead to sales of such shares or the perception that such sales may occur which may adversely affect the market for, and the market price of, shares of the Company’s common stock.
