    Results disclosed via Regulation FD press release; capacity revenues provide predictable income for maintaining grid reliability in PJM wholesale power market.

Summary

Talen secured 10,180 megawatts of capacity in PJM's Base Residual Auction for the 2028/2029 planning year at a clearing price of $325 per megawatt-day, translating to approximately $1.2 billion in capacity revenues for the twelve-month period beginning June 1, 2028. Capacity payments compensate generators for maintaining available generation to ensure grid reliability, providing a predictable revenue stream alongside energy and ancillary service sales in the PJM wholesale market.

For retail holders, the auction result locks in a material revenue component two years forward, reducing earnings uncertainty for the 2028/2029 period. The cleared volume represents Talen's existing fleet footprint in PJM; investors should compare the $325/MW-day clearing price to prior auctions and management's capacity revenue guidance to assess whether the result meets, exceeds, or falls short of expectations embedded in the stock.
