Vistra shares closed at $124.80, up 4.37% on volume of 11.77 million, after the company reported third-quarter revenue of $6.347 billion that topped the $6.024 billion consensus estimate. The board also authorized an additional $1.5 billion for stock buybacks, leaving $2.5 billion available through 2028, while management reaffirmed its growth outlook and flagged high-single-digit adjusted free cash flow accretion from the Cogentrix transaction, rising to double-digit accretion starting in 2029. Bernstein maintained its Outperform rating with a $181 price target. The combination of the revenue beat, expanded buyback authorization, and reiterated growth outlook points to a bullish direction for the stock.
