Director Scott B Helm sold 25,000 VST shares at $160.00 on 2026-06-16; scheduled 10b5-1 plan transaction

Scott B Helm, a Director, executed a 25,000-share sale ($4.0M) under a pre-arranged 10b5-1 trading plan adopted on 2026-03-11, reducing his stake from 257.2K to 232.2K shares (-9.7%). Since this transaction is scheduled rather than discretionary, timing-based inferences about conviction are not applicable. Helm's cross-ticker open-market history shows three prior sells with average 90-day returns of +4.1%, while his three prior VST-specific sales averaged +8.9% over 90 days, indicating the stock has historically risen after his sales at this ticker. The company reports solid fundamentals with $5.6B in quarterly revenue, $1.0B net income, and a P/E of 24.62; current price of $163.75 is 25.5% below the 52-week high but 21.6% above 30-day levels.

Director Scott B. Helm sold 50,000 VST shares at $172.75 on 2025-06-05; stock up 24.5% in 30 days, company swinging to losses.

Director Scott B. Helm sold 50,000 shares (50.0K shares) at $172.75 on 2025-06-05, reducing his holdings by -16.4%, in a company reporting net income of $-268,000,000.00 against revenue of $3,933,000,000.00 in the latest quarter. The 30-day return on the stock is +24.5%, yet the company has shifted to negative profitability despite 16.5% annual revenue growth, creating a divergence between equity appreciation and deteriorating earnings. Helm's cross-ticker track record shows a 100.00% well-timed rate on prior sells (2 transactions, avg 90d return -22.4%), though same-ticker history is mixed with only one measurable prior outcome. The sale warrants attention given the negative earnings backdrop and the insider's demonstrated timing discipline historically, though the stock's recent strength suggests the market has not yet incorporated the earnings pressure.

Director Scott B. Helm sold 20,000 VST shares at $156.80; stock now $152.07, down 20.8% from 52-week high.

Director Scott B. Helm sold 20,000 shares of Vistra Corp. at $156.80 on 2025-05-19, reducing his holdings by 6.2% to 305,192 shares and generating $3,135,960.00 in proceeds. The timing of this sale is noteworthy: his prior sale at VST on 2024-12-10 demonstrated a 90-day return of -22.4%, placing it within his 100.00% well-timed rate across his cross-ticker selling history. VST stock has since declined 20.8% from its 52-week high of $191.89, though it remains up 42.8% over the last 30 days. The company's current fundamentals show mixed signals: annual revenue growth of 16.5% and a substantial $3.9B quarterly revenue base are offset by a net loss of $268.0M and a 21.27 P/E ratio. The sale occurs in a stock that has recovered sharply in the near term but remains well below its recent peak, warranting monitoring of whether this reflects insider assessment of near-term pricing relative to longer-term value.

Vistra's fundamentals remain solid: net income of $1.9B and a P/E of 24.41, with annual revenue growth of 7.7%. The transaction is modest in scale relative to his remaining position and the company's $49.7B market capitalization, and insufficient context is available to draw conclusions about directional conviction or concern.
