NRG Q2 2026: $506 million GAAP profit, guidance reaffirmed
NRG earned $506 million on a GAAP basis, a $610 million swing from a year ago, but most of that came from $289 million of non-cash hedge gains stripped out of adjusted results. Adjusted EPS of $1.49 missed the $1.71 consensus and slipped from $1.73, and the LS Power acquisition lifted long-term debt to $21.74 billion. Read the GAAP line as hedge noise, the adjusted line as the operating signal, and the balance sheet as the real question.
