Vistra Corp., a major U.S. independent power producer, shows strong adjusted EBITDA growth but faces declining sales and rising operating costs. Its valuation improved with a price-to-earnings ratio dropping from 76x to 23.8x, though price-to-book remains high at 15x. Key growth drivers include the Cogentrix acquisition, nuclear power deals with AWS and Meta, and a new AI partnership with Nvidia. Despite promising long-term prospects in data centers and nuclear energy, near-term risks and margin volatility suggest investors should wait before upgrading Vistra to a buy recommendation.
