This decrease is driven by less favorable customer load in 2021 as a result of weaker weather and stay-at-home trends as well as increased costs to serve retail load, partially offset by the acquisition of Direct Energy.\n<\/p>\n East: <\/b>Second quarter Adjusted EBITDA was $290 million, $157 million higher than second quarter of 2020. This increase is driven by the acquisition of Direct Energy, favorable weather and early intra-year settlement of demand response capacity obligations.\n<\/p>\n West\/Services\/Other: <\/b>Second quarter Adjusted EBITDA was $45 million, $18 million lower than second quarter of 2020. This decrease is due to higher fuel costs, lower generation volumes from forced outages, and lower equity earnings following the sale of Agua Caliente in February 2021.

Total liquidity was $3.3 billion. Overall liquidity as of the end of the second quarter 2021 was approximately $3.7 billion lower than at the end of 2020, driven by the closing of the $3.6 billion Direct Energy acquisition and the impact of Winter Storm Uri.\n<\/p>\n NRG Strategic Developments<\/b><\/p>\n COVID-19<\/b><\/p>\n \nNRG continues to remain focused on protecting the health and well-being of its employees while supporting its customers and the communities in which it operates and assuring the continuity of its operations. During 2020, summer-critical office employees returned to the workplace, and safety protocols were successfully implemented. The Company has now completed its phased employee return approach within a set of safety protocols to ensure employee well-being. NRG has also implemented changes in the workplace to provide flexibility for employees to support its ability to attract and retain top talent.\n<\/p>\n Texas Legislation and Winter Storm Uri Updates<\/b><\/p>\n \nIn the wake of Winter Storm Uri, the Texas legislature passed an omnibus bill, SB3, that directs numerous regulatory reforms, including the adoption of mandatory weatherization standards for both the electric and natural-gas sectors, improved coordination between those sectors, improvements to public communications and transmission-and-distribution utility protocols before and during energy emergencies. Other reforms not embodied in SB3 include an expansion of the PUCT from three to five commissioners and an overhaul of ERCOT governance.\n<\/p>\n \nThe legislature also signed into law HB4492 and SB1580 that directs securitization of certain costs resulting from extraordinary uplift charges and market-participant defaults within ERCOT as a result of the storm. ERCOT filed applications consistent with HB4492 on July 16, 2021 and the PUCT will have until mid-October to issue orders consistent with the law. We expect that the results of these proceedings will mitigate all or a portion of the financial impacts associated with uplift and default-related costs.\n<\/p>\n \nThe Company expects Winter Storm Uri’s total 2021 loss before income tax to be $1,060 million driven by resettlement data, ERCOT system wide counterparty defaults, provisions for credits losses, increased uplift charges to load, ancillary charges and other estimates including results from other regions. The Company plans to mitigate the loss by a range of $360-$560 million which includes, but is not limited to, customer bad debt mitigation, counterparty default recovery, ERCOT default and uplift regulatory securitization as noted above, and one-time cost savings. The total net impact to cash flow is expected to be $600 million based on the mid-point of the mitigants of which $150 million will to be realized in 2022 for bill credits owed to large Commercial and Industrial (C&I) customers.\n<\/p>\n PJM Retirements<\/b><\/p>\n \nOn June 17, 2021, NRG announced the retirement of 55% (or 1,600 MW\u2019s) of its PJM coal fleet by June 2022 due to the decline in forward PJM capacity prices. The Company also announced it is conducting a strategic review of its remaining PJM generation fleet. On July 30, 2021, PJM identified reliability impacts resulting from the proposed deactivation of Indian River 4. The Company has until August 29, 2021 to notify PJM if it elects not to pursue continued operations.\n<\/p>\n \nBased on results of the capacity auction and the announced retirements, the Company recorded $306 million of impairment losses on the PJM generating assets and goodwill during the quarter ended June 30, 2021.\n<\/p>\n Sustainability Update <\/b><\/p>\n \nNRG released its 2020 Sustainability Report, providing an update on the Company\u2019s comprehensive sustainability strategy with a focus on how customer choice and competitive markets have enabled the acceleration of decarbonization across the power sector. NRG demonstrated progress across all of its previously announced sustainability initiatives and recorded a 55% reduction in its carbon footprint from its current 2014 baseline as of December 31, 2020. The report also highlights the Company\u2019s commitments to safety, well-being, and community during an unprecedented year, building on more than a decade of leadership in each of the five pillars of NRG\u2019s comprehensive sustainability framework, which encompasses its business, customers, workplace, operations, and supply chain.\n<\/p>\n 2021 Guidance <\/b><\/p>\n \nNRG is reaffirming its guidance range for 2021 with respect to Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Cash from Operations and Free Cash Flow before Growth Investments (FCFbG) which excludes the full year impact of Winter Storm Uri.

The Company remains committed to maintaining a strong balance sheet and to achieve investment grade credit metrics.\n<\/p>\n \nThe Company’s common stock dividend and debt reductions are subject to available capital, market conditions, and compliance with associated laws and regulations.\n<\/p>\n Earnings Conference Call <\/b><\/p>\n \nOn August 5, 2021, NRG will host a conference call at 9:00 a.m. Eastern to discuss these results.

These statements involve estimates, expectations, projections, goals, assumptions, known and unknown risks and uncertainties and can typically be identified by terminology such as \u201cmay,\u201d \u201cshould,\u201d \u201ccould,\u201d \u201cobjective,\u201d \u201cprojection,\u201d \u201cforecast,\u201d \u201cgoal,\u201d \u201cguidance,\u201d \u201coutlook,\u201d \u201cexpect,\u201d \u201cintend,\u201d \u201cseek,\u201d \u201cplan,\u201d \u201cthink,\u201d \u201canticipate,\u201d \u201cestimate,\u201d \u201cpredict,\u201d \u201ctarget,\u201d \u201cpotential\u201d or \u201ccontinue\u201d or the negative of these terms or other comparable terminology. Such forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements about the Company\u2019s future revenues, income, indebtedness, capital structure, plans, expectations, objectives, projected financial performance and\/or business results and other future events, and views of economic and market conditions.\n<\/p>\n \nAlthough NRG believes that its expectations are reasonable, it can give no assurance that these expectations will prove to be correct, and actual results may vary materially. Factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those contemplated herein include, among others, the potential impact of COVID-19 or any other pandemic on the Company\u2019s operations, financial position, risk exposure and liquidity, general economic conditions, hazards customary in the power industry, weather conditions and extreme weather events, competition in wholesale power and gas markets, the volatility of energy and fuel prices, failure of customers or counterparties to perform under contracts, changes in the wholesale power and gas markets, changes in government or market regulations, the condition of capital markets generally, our ability to access capital markets, cyberterrorism and inadequate cybersecurity, unanticipated outages at our generation facilities, adverse results in current and future litigation, failure to identify, execute or successfully implement acquisitions, repowerings or asset sales, our ability to implement value enhancing improvements to plant operations and company-wide processes, our ability to achieve our net debt targets our ability to maintain investment grade credit metrics, our ability to proceed with projects under development or the inability to complete the construction of such projects on schedule or within budget, the inability to maintain or create successful partnering relationships, our ability to operate our business efficiently, our ability to retain retail customers, our ability to realize value through our commercial operations strategy, the ability to successfully integrate businesses of acquired companies, including Direct Energy, our ability to realize anticipated benefits of transactions (including expected cost savings and other synergies) or the risk that anticipated benefits may take longer to realize than expected, and our ability to execute our Capital Allocation Plan. Achieving investment grade credit metrics is not an indication of or guarantee that the Company will receive investment grade credit ratings. Debt and share repurchases may be made from time to time subject to market conditions and other factors, including as permitted by United States securities laws. Furthermore, any common stock dividend is subject to available capital and market conditions.\n<\/p>\n \nNRG undertakes no obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by law. The adjusted EBITDA and free cash flow guidance are estimates as of August 5, 2021. These estimates are based on assumptions the company believed to be reasonable as of that date. NRG disclaims any current intention to update such guidance, except as required by law. The foregoing review of factors that could cause NRG\u2019s actual results to differ materially from those contemplated in the forward-looking statements included in this presentation should be considered in connection with information regarding risks and uncertainties that may affect NRG’s future results included in NRG’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission at www.sec.gov.\n<\/p>\n \n\n| \n NRG ENERGY, INC.
