Operating Cash Flow Trends
PUBLIC SERVICE ENTERPRISE GROUP INC · 2026-11-02 · Importance 32 · Surprise 24 · In source text
For the nine months ended September 30, 2026, consolidated operating cash flow decreased $40 million versus the same period in 2025. The decrease primarily reflected $388 million of net cash collateral postings in 2026, compared with a $137 million cash collateral inflow in 2025, and payment of the ZEC refund at PSEG Power. Tax refunds in 2026, compared with taxes paid in 2025, and a net change at PSE&G partly offset those outflows. PSEG expects operating cash flows, cash on hand, and financing activities to be sufficient to fund planned capital expenditures and shareholder dividends.
