How big is it?
Vistra bought back $1.1B of stock in the twelve months to Jun 30, 2026. At that pace, $1.0B covers about 10 months of buybacks.
The amount equals 44% of its free cash flow over the same twelve months ($2.3B).
Its diluted share count is down 1.8% from a year earlier.
An authorization is permission, not a promise: the company can buy less, more slowly, or not at all, and usually doesn't have to say when it buys.
