Talen Energy Corporation (TLN · NASDAQ)

Talen Energy shares have fallen 28% over the past three months and touched a 52-week low of $301.35, with the stock last at $292.30 and down 34.4% from its 52-week high. The June quarter showed a sharp miss — reported EPS of $0.16 versus $3.20 estimated — alongside an operating loss of $72.0M on revenue of $747.0M, though revenue more than doubled year over year (+111.2% to $3.74B TTM). Balance-sheet pressure is notable: total debt stands at $9.57B (16.4x EBITDA), operating cash flow was negative $434.0M in the quarter, and the current ratio sits at 0.78. Offsetting the weakness, BlackRock raised its stake to 9.09% and Mizuho initiated coverage with an Outperform rating and a $405 target, versus the $460.59 analyst consensus.
