a. In accordance with GAAP, 2018 results have been recast to reflect the discontinued operations of the South Central Portfolio, Clearway Energy, the Renewables Platform and Carlsbad Energy Center.
Second quarter Income from Continuing Operations was $189 million, $162 million higher than second quarter 2018, driven by Generation gains on mark-to-market hedge positions in 2019 partially offset by Retail losses on mark-to-market hedge positions in 2019, both driven by large movements in gas prices and ERCOT heat rates.

b. See Appendices A-1 through A-4 for Operating Segment Reg G reconciliations.
Retail: Second quarter Adjusted EBITDA was $240 million, $58 million lower than second quarter 2018, driven by higher supply costs, milder weather and capacity obligations, partially offset by the acquisition of XOOM.
Generation: Second quarter Adjusted EBITDA was $230 million, $1 million lower than second quarter 2018, driven by:
- Texas Region: $85 million increase due to higher generation and higher realized power prices; and
- East/West1: $86 million decrease due to 2018 asset sales and deconsolidations combined with lower insurance proceeds and lower generation.

As of June 30, 2019, NRG cash was at $0.3 billion, and $1.8 billion was available under the Company’s credit facilities. Total liquidity was $2.1 billion, including restricted cash. Overall liquidity as of the end of the second quarter 2019 was $127 million higher than at the end of 2018 driven by asset sale proceeds, net of share repurchases and debt reductions executed during the period, and an increase in NRG’s revolver capacity.
NRG Strategic Developments
Transformation Plan
Through the second quarter of 2019, NRG realized $261 million of its cost savings target as part of the previously announced Transformation Plan, and is on track to realize $590 million in savings in 2019. Margin Enhancement provided $30 million in uplift through the second quarter toward the $135 million 2019 target.
Retail Acquisition
On May 15, 2019, NRG entered into an agreement to acquire Stream Energy’s retail electricity and natural gas business operating in 9 states and Washington, D.C. for $300 million and estimated transaction costs and working capital adjustments of approximately $25 million. The acquisition increased NRG’s retail portfolio by approximately 600,000 Retail Customer Equivalents or 450,000 customers. The acquisition closed on August 1, 2019.
Renewable Power Purchase Agreements
During the first half of 2019, NRG began execution of its capital-light strategy to provide competitively priced renewable offerings to retail customers. NRG entered into power purchase agreements with third-party project developers and other counterparties, totaling approximately 1.3 GWs, with an average tenor of approximately ten years. NRG expects to continue evaluating and executing agreements such as these that support the needs of its platform.
Pre-Summer Maintenance and Gregory Natural Gas Plant
NRG expanded pre-summer maintenance of the Texas fleet by increasing spending by $21 million, including the return of its 385 MW Gregory natural gas plant in Corpus Christi, Texas to service in June 2019.
2019 Guidance
NRG is reaffirming its guidance range for 2019 with respect to Adjusted EBITDA, Cash From Operations and Free Cash Flow before Growth Investments (FCFbG) as set forth below.

a. Non-GAAP financial measure; see Appendix Tables A-8 for GAAP Reconciliation to Net Income that excludes fair value adjustments related to derivatives. The Company is unable to provide guidance for Net Income due to the impact of such fair value adjustments related to derivatives in a given year
Capital Allocation Update
Through August 7, 2019, NRG completed $1.25 billion in share repurchases, including the $1 billion share repurchase program announced on the fourth quarter 2018 earnings call, at an average price of $38.80 per share2.
In addition, the Board of Directors of the Company has authorized an incremental $250 million share repurchase program, which is expected to be executed in 2019. In total, NRG has allocated $1.5 billion of capital available for allocation to share repurchases in 2019.
During the second quarter of 2019, NRG completed several debt transactions to extend maturities, reduce interest expense and further align its credit profile with investment grade:
- Refinanced $733 million of 6.25% Senior Unsecured Notes due 2024 with new 5.25% Senior Unsecured Notes due 2029
- Issued $1.1 billion of aggregate principal amount of Senior Secured First Lien Notes, consisting of $600 million 3.75% Senior Secured First Lien Notes due 2024 and $500 million 4.45% Senior Secured First Lien Notes due 2029. The proceeds from the issuance of the Senior Secured First Lien Notes, as well as $598 million3 of cash on hand, were used to repay the Company’s $1.7 billion 2023 Term Loan facility
- Amended its existing credit agreement, increasing the aggregate revolving commitments by $184 million to $2.6 billion, extending the maturity to 2024, and reducing the borrowing costs by 0.5%, among other modifications
Both the new secured notes and amended credit facility provide for a release of the collateral securing the debt if NRG obtains an investment grade rating from two out of the three rating agencies. In aggregate, these transactions will generate annual interest savings of approximately $25 million.
On July 19, 2019, NRG declared a quarterly dividend on the Company’s common stock of $0.03 per share, payable August 15, 2019, to stockholders of record as of August 1, 2019, representing $0.12 on an annualized basis.
The Company’s common stock dividend, debt reduction and share repurchases are subject to available capital, market conditions and compliance with associated laws and regulations.
