NRG window: when it reported before the open or during market hours, from the previous close to that day's. Split-adjusted closes and EPS with its estimate, from Yahoo Finance. It already happened: it does not anticipate the next announcement.

Where each number comes from

From the 8-K with item 2.02 ("Results of Operations and Financial Condition") that NRG Energy filed on EDGAR, the SEC's public database; only those with their 10-Q or 10-K behind them count, so other 8-Ks with the same item (production figures, monthly sales) stay out. The time is converted to New York time using this specific company's stamp convention (its EDGAR stamp arrives in UTC), and it is not assumed: it is derived from the hours in which EDGAR accepts filings.

What this data does not know

  • The exact time of the press release: the 8-K reaches EDGAR minutes or hours later, so NRG Energy's median 07:00 is an upper bound. The session says which one the news landed in, not what minute it was said.
  • Nothing before Jul 30, 2009: it is NRG Energy's oldest quarter with announcement and report paired in the file.
  • What will happen. The page's only future date, Nov 5, 2026, was announced by NRG Energy on the Nasdaq calendar and can be moved. NRG Energy reporting before the open 19 quarters in a row does not say the next one will be the same.
  • NRG Energy's identity is its SEC CIK (0001013871), not its symbol: symbols get recycled and renamed.
