Alliant Energy Announces 2024 Results

Alliant Energy Corporation (NASDAQ: LNT) today announced U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) and non-GAAP consolidated unaudited earnings per share (EPS) for 2024 and 2023 as follows:

	GAAP EPS				Non-GAAP EPS
	2024		2023		2024		2023
Utilities and Corporate Services	$2.81		$2.86		$3.12		$2.86
American Transmission Company (ATC) Holdings	0.16		0.14		0.16		0.14
Non-utility and Parent	(0.28)		(0.22)		(0.24)		(0.18)
Alliant Energy Consolidated	$2.69		$2.78		$3.04		$2.82

“In 2024, we delivered another solid year of financial and operational results. We’re pleased to complete 1,500 megawatts of solar generation investments in 2024. Combined with existing 1,800 megawatts of wind resources, these zero-fuel cost, zero-emission investments strengthen the clean energy element of our balanced generation portfolio and reinforce our leadership in the energy transition,” said Lisa Barton, Alliant Energy President and CEO. “As part of our ongoing customer and community-focused strategy last week we, along with Iowa Governor Kim Reynolds and Cedar Rapids Mayor Tiffany O’Donnell, officially confirmed the largest economic development investment in the history of Cedar Rapids. We continue to focus on economic development, bringing benefits to communities in both Iowa and Wisconsin.”

Utilities and Corporate Services - Alliant Energy’s Utilities and Alliant Energy Corporate Services, Inc. (Corporate Services) operations generated $2.81 per share of GAAP EPS in 2024, which was $0.05 per share lower than 2023. The primary drivers of lower EPS were items not normally associated with ongoing operations and described below in the discussion of non-GAAP adjustments, higher depreciation and financing expenses, estimated temperature impacts on retail electric and gas sales, and lower allowance for funds used during construction (AFUDC). These items were partially offset by higher revenue requirements from capital investments.

Non-utility and Parent - Alliant Energy’s Non-utility and Parent operations generated $(0.28) per share of GAAP EPS in 2024, which was $0.06 per share lower than 2023. The lower EPS was primarily driven by higher financing expense.

Non-GAAP Adjustments - Non-GAAP EPS for 2024 for Alliant Energy’s Utilities and Corporate Services excludes the $0.17 per share asset valuation charge for IPL’s Lansing Generating Station as a result of the Iowa Utilities Commission (IUC) order for IPL’s retail electric rate review, $0.08 per share of restructuring and voluntary separation charges, and $0.06 per share asset retirement obligation initial charge for steam assets at IPL due to the revised Coal Combustion Residuals Rule. Non-GAAP EPS for 2024 for Alliant Energy’s Non-Utility and Parent excludes the $0.04 per share adjustment of deferred tax assets due to Iowa tax reform.

Non-GAAP EPS for 2023 for Alliant Energy’s Non-utility and Parent excludes $0.04 per share of charges related to remeasurement of deferred tax assets due to Iowa income tax reform. Non-GAAP adjustments, which relate to charges or income that are not normally associated with ongoing operations, are provided as a supplement to results reported in accordance with GAAP.

Details regarding GAAP EPS variances between 2024 and 2023 for Alliant Energy are as follows:

	Variance
Revenue requirements from capital investments	$0.68
Non-GAAP adjustments in 2024	(0.35)
Higher depreciation expense	(0.19)
Higher financing expense	(0.15)
Estimated temperature impacts on retail electric and gas sales	(0.09)
Lower AFUDC	(0.07)
Non-GAAP adjustments in 2023	0.04
Other (including lower other operation and maintenance expense)	0.04
Total	($0.09)

Revenue requirements from capital investments at IPL and WPL - In September 2024, IPL received an order from the Iowa Utilities Commission (IUC) authorizing annual base rate increases of $185 million and $10 million for its retail electric and gas rate review covering the October 2024 through September 2025 forward-looking Test Period. IPL recognized a $0.21 per share increase in 2024 due to higher revenue requirements from increasing rate base, including investments in solar generation.

In December 2023, WPL received an order from the Public Service Commission of Wisconsin authorizing annual base rate increases of $49 million and $13 million for its retail electric and gas rate review covering the 2024/2025 Test Period. WPL recognized a $0.47 per share increase in 2024 due to higher revenue requirements from increasing rate base, including investments in solar generation and energy storage.

Non-GAAP adjustments in 2024 - In September 2024, the IUC approved the June 2024 partial non-unanimous settlement agreement between IPL and certain stakeholders. The agreement includes a return of the remaining net book value of Lansing Generating Station which was retired in May 2023, but does not include a return on the remaining net book value of Lansing. As a result the return on the remaining net book value is no longer recoverable from IPL’s retail electric customers, and a pre-tax non-cash charge of $60 million was recorded.

In the fourth quarter of 2024, restructuring activities were announced, including offering certain employees a voluntary separation package to help align resources with evolving business and customer needs, and reduce customer costs. As a result, a pre-tax charge of $29 million was recorded.

In May 2024, the EPA enacted the revised coal combustion residuals rule, which significantly expands the scope of regulation to include coal ash ponds at sites that no longer produce electricity and inactive landfills. As a result, an initial pre-tax charge of $20 million was recorded for additional asset retirement obligations.

Pursuant to Iowa tax reform effective in 2023, Iowa state income taxes became fully deductible for the purpose of determining Iowa state income tax. Alliant Energy reflected the deduction of the additional Iowa state income taxes in its 2023 Iowa state income tax return filed in 2024, which resulted in a non-GAAP charge of $11 million. These charges were recorded to income tax expense related to the adjustment of deferred income tax assets at the Non-utility and Parent operations.

Higher financing expense - Interest expense, net resulted in $0.15 lower EPS primarily due to increased total long-term debt in 2024 largely to fund capital expenditures, including the solar and energy storage expansion program in Iowa and Wisconsin.

Estimated temperature Impacts on retail electric and gas sales - The estimated impacts of net temperatures on retail electric and gas sales were $0.15 and $0.06 per share loss in 2024 and 2023, respectively.

Non-GAAP adjustments in 2023 - Pursuant to Iowa tax reform enacted in 2022, in September 2023, the Iowa Department of Revenue announced an Iowa corporate income tax rate of 7.1%, effective January 1, 2024. The announced change in the corporate income tax rate resulted in a non-GAAP charge of $10 million or $0.04 per share in 2023. These charges were recorded to income tax expense related to the remeasurement of deferred income tax assets at the Non-utility and Parent operations.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

To provide investors with additional information regarding Alliant Energy’s financial results, this press release includes reference to certain non-GAAP financial measures. These measures include income and EPS for the fourth quarter and year ended December 31, 2023 excluding charges related to remeasurement of deferred tax assets due to Iowa state income tax rate changes. These measures also include income and EPS for the fourth quarter and year ended December 31, 2024 excluding charges related to restructuring and voluntary employee separation charges and the adjustment of deferred tax assets due to Iowa tax reform, and for the year ended December 31, 2024 excluding the asset valuation charge related to IPL’s Lansing Generating Station and asset retirement obligation charges for steam assets at IPL. Alliant Energy believes these non-GAAP financial measures are useful to investors because they provide an alternate measure to better understand and compare across periods the operating performance of Alliant Energy without the distortion of items that management believes are not normally associated with ongoing operations, and also provide additional information about Alliant Energy’s operations on a basis consistent with the measures that management uses to manage its operations and evaluate its performance. Alliant Energy’s management also uses income, as adjusted, to determine performance-based compensation.

In addition, Alliant Energy included in this press release IPL; WPL; Corporate Services; Utilities and Corporate Services; ATC Holdings; and Non-utility and Parent EPS for the fourth quarter and year ended December 31, 2024 and 2023. Alliant Energy believes these non-GAAP financial measures are useful to investors because they facilitate an understanding of segment performance and trends, and provide additional information about Alliant Energy’s operations on a basis consistent with the measures that management uses to manage its operations and evaluate its performance.

The tax impact adjustments represent the impact of the tax effect of the pre-tax non-GAAP adjustments excluded from non-GAAP net income. The tax impact of the non-GAAP adjustments is calculated based on the estimated consolidated statutory tax rate.

Reconciliations of the non-GAAP financial measures included in this press release to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures are included in the earnings summaries that follow and in the case of temperature normalized non-GAAP EPS, in the press release above.

Note: Unless otherwise noted, all “per share” references in this release refer to earnings per diluted share.
