V2 ENGINE
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY ~2 min read · every number below is engine-derived with a replayable run_id

NextEra Energy's announced $66.8B all-stock acquisition of Dominion Energy (May 18, 2026) creates the largest U.S. regulated-utility combination in two decades. OloLand's deterministic engines ran the full buy-side mechanics — combined DCF, accretion-dilution, antitrust HHI, Beneish forensic, premium analysis — directly against EDGAR primary filings within minutes of the announcement. Every output below carries a run_id the IC can replay; every input traces to a 10-Q, 10-K, or 8-K on file with the SEC.

VERDICT
CONSTRUCTIVE on NEE long · NEUTRAL on the arb spread
NUMBERS THAT MATTER
$470.4B combined EV · $31.6B synergy NPV · $118.50 PF equity (+27% vs $93.36 unaffected)
GATING RISK
VA SCC pre-approval (Q2 2027) — the swing event · CVOW execution as secondary

How to read this dashboard: the scorecard below lists every engine call with its run_id and verdict. Each subsequent section drills into one engine (DCF waterfall, premium & accretion, synergies, Beneish, HHI, regulatory path) with the inputs visible inline. The trade-construction and catalyst tables at the bottom translate engine outputs into PM-actionable positions, and the final section is the full audit trail — every run_id plus the deal record in the OloLand UI.
