ALLIANT ENERGY ANNOUNCES SECOND QUARTER 2023 RESULTS
•Second quarter GAAP earnings per share was $0.64 in 2023, compared to $0.63 in 2022
•Reaffirming 2023 earnings guidance range of $2.82 - $2.96
MADISON, Wis. - August 3, 2023 - Alliant Energy Corporation (NASDAQ: LNT) today announced U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) consolidated unaudited earnings per share (EPS) for the three months ended June 30 as follows:
| GAAP EPS | |||||||||||
| 2023 | 2022 | ||||||||||
| Utilities and Corporate Services | $0.65 | $0.61 | |||||||||
| American Transmission Company (ATC) Holdings | 0.03 | 0.03 | |||||||||
| Non-utility and Parent | (0.04) | (0.01) | |||||||||
| Alliant Energy Consolidated | $0.64 | $0.63 | |||||||||
“Our results for the first half of the year are on track, and we are reaffirming our 2023 earnings guidance,” said John Larsen, Alliant Energy Board Chair and CEO. “We continue delivering on our customer-focused strategy, bringing value to the communities we serve by investing in a diverse energy mix and ensuring a safe, reliable and resilient grid.”
Utilities and Corporate Services - Alliant Energy’s Utilities and Alliant Energy Corporate Services, Inc. (Corporate Services) operations generated $0.65 per share of GAAP EPS in the second quarter of 2023, which was $0.04 per share higher than the second quarter of 2022. The primary drivers of higher EPS were higher revenue requirements and allowance for funds used during construction (AFUDC) from Wisconsin Power and Light Company’s (WPL’s) capital investments, and WPL electric fuel-related costs, net of recoveries. These items were partially offset by lower retail electric and gas sales as a result of temperatures, and higher interest expense. Retail electric and gas sales were higher than normal in 2022 due to the impacts of warmer than normal temperatures, while temperatures had minimal impact in the second quarter of 2023.
Non-utility and Parent - Alliant Energy’s Non-utility and Parent operations generated $(0.04) per share of GAAP EPS in the second quarter of 2023, which was a $0.03 per share earnings decrease compared to the second quarter of 2022. The lower EPS was primarily driven by higher interest expense.
Details regarding GAAP EPS variances between the second quarters of 2023 and 2022 for Alliant Energy are as follows:
| Variance | |||||
| Revenue requirements and higher AFUDC from WPL capital investments | $0.06 | ||||
| WPL electric fuel-related costs, net of recoveries | 0.03 | ||||
| Estimated temperature impact on retail electric and gas sales | (0.05) | ||||
| Higher interest expense | (0.05) | ||||
| Other | 0.02 | ||||
| Total | $0.01 | ||||
Revenue requirements and higher AFUDC from WPL capital investments - In December 2021, WPL received an order from the Public Service Commission of Wisconsin (PSCW) approving WPL’s proposed settlement for its retail electric and gas rate review covering the 2022/2023 Test Period. In December 2022, WPL received an order from the PSCW approving an additional annual base rate increase of $9 million for WPL’s retail gas customers covering the 2023 Test Period. WPL recognized a $0.03 per share increase in the second quarter of 2023 due to higher revenue requirements from increasing rate base, including investments in solar generation. The construction activity related to these investments also resulted in $0.03 per share higher AFUDC in the second quarter of 2023.
1
WPL electric fuel-related costs, net of recoveries - WPL recognized $0.03 per share of higher earnings from changes in WPL electric fuel-related costs since actual fuel and purchased power prices were lower than the 2023 fuel component of retail electric rates, compared to the second quarter of 2022 when actual fuel and purchased power prices were higher than the 2022 fuel component of retail electric rates.
Estimated temperature impact on retail electric and gas sales - Temperatures had minimal impact on Alliant Energy’s retail electric and gas sales in the second quarter of 2023, compared to an estimated increase of $0.05 per share in the second quarter of 2022 due to the impacts of warmer than normal temperatures on customer demand.
Higher interest expense - Total long-term debt increased due to additional financings in 2022 and 2023 largely to fund capital expenditures, including the solar expansion program in Wisconsin. In addition, increases in short-term debt interest rates contributed to higher interest expense in the second quarter of 2023 compared to the same period in 2022.
2023 Earnings Guidance
Alliant Energy is reaffirming its consolidated EPS guidance for 2023 of $2.82 - $2.96. Assumptions for Alliant Energy’s 2023 EPS guidance include, but are not limited to:
•Ability of Interstate Power and Light Company (IPL) and WPL to earn their authorized rates of return
•Stable economy and resulting implications on utility sales
•Normal temperatures in its utility service territories
•Execution of cost controls
•Execution of capital expenditure and financing plans
•Consolidated effective tax rate of 2%
The 2023 earnings guidance does not include the impacts of any material non-cash valuation adjustments, regulatory-related charges or credits, reorganizations or restructurings, future changes in laws including corporate tax reform in Iowa, regulations or regulatory policies, changes in credit loss liabilities related to guarantees, pending lawsuits and disputes, settlement charges related to pension and other postretirement benefit plans, federal and state income tax audits and other Internal Revenue Service proceedings, impacts from changes to the authorized return on equity for ATC, changes in GAAP and tax methods of accounting that may impact the reported results of Alliant Energy, or certain nonrecurring or infrequent items that are, in management’s view, not reflective of ongoing operations.
Because Alliant Energy is not able to estimate the impact of specific line items, which have the potential to significantly impact, favorably or unfavorably, 2023 EPS, the EPS guidance may not align with GAAP EPS if the assumptions described above are not realized or any nonrecurring or infrequent items occur, and no reconciliation is being provided.

•the ability to obtain regulatory approval for construction projects with acceptable conditions;
•the ability to complete construction of renewable generation and storage projects by planned in-service dates and within the cost targets set by regulators due to cost increases of and access to materials, equipment and commodities, which could result from tariffs, duties or other assessments, such as any additional tariffs resulting from U.S. Department of Commerce investigations into and any decisions made regarding the sourcing of solar project materials and equipment from certain countries, labor issues or supply shortages, the ability to successfully resolve warranty issues or contract disputes, the ability to achieve the expected level of tax benefits based on tax guidelines and project costs, and the ability to efficiently utilize the renewable generation and storage project tax benefits for the benefit of customers;
