On an adjusted basis, TransAlta says it earned 18 cents per share in its latest quarter compared with an adjusted loss of two cents per share in the third quarter of 2025.

Revenue for the quarter totalled $536 million, down from $615 million a year earlier.

TransAlta CEO Joel Hunter says the company delivered strong third-quarter results driven by high fleet availability, disciplined asset optimization, benefits of its environmental credit portfolio and contributions across its diversified fleet.
