Published: August 14, 2007

DALLASTXU Corp. said Monday it probably would break into three separate companies if it can't complete a $32 billion sale to private investors.

The company said regulatory and legislative challenges could force it to separate its power-generation, distribution and electricity-retailing divisions.

TXU made the comments in a regulatory filing as it launched a road show designed to convince key shareholders to support the sale of the power company to investors led by Kohlberg Kravis Roberts & Co. and Texas Pacific Group.

Shareholders are scheduled to vote on the offer Sept. 7, with two-thirds support needed for approval.
