Alliant Energy Corporation (NASDAQ:LNT) today announced U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) and non-GAAP consolidated unaudited earnings per share (EPS) for the three months ended September 30 as follows:

	GAAP EPS						Non-GAAP EPS
	2023			2022			2023			2022
Utilities and Corporate Services	$	1.11		$	0.99		$	1.11		$	0.99
American Transmission Company (ATC) Holdings		0.03			0.02			0.03			0.02
Non-utility and Parent		(0.12	)		(0.11	)		(0.09	)		(0.08	)
Alliant Energy Consolidated	$	1.02		$	0.90		$	1.05		$	0.93

"We continue to deliver solid financial and operational results while executing our customer-focused strategy," said John Larsen, Alliant Energy Board Chair and CEO. "Our narrowed 2023 earnings guidance, introduction of our 2024 earnings guidance, and reiteration of our long-term earnings growth range of 5% to 7% reinforces the consistent performance and predicable long-term growth of our company."

Utilities and Corporate Services - Alliant Energy's Utilities and Alliant Energy Corporate Services, Inc. (Corporate Services) operations generated $1.11 per share of GAAP EPS in the third quarter of 2023, which was $0.12 per share higher than the third 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 lower other operation and maintenance expenses. These items were partially offset by higher interest expense.

Non-utility and Parent - Alliant Energy's Non-utility and Parent operations generated $(0.12) per share of GAAP EPS in the third quarter of 2023, which was a $0.01 per share earnings decrease compared to the third quarter of 2022. The lower EPS was primarily driven by higher interest expense.

Earnings Adjustments - Non-GAAP EPS for the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022 excludes $0.03 per share and $0.03 per share, respectively, of charges related to the Iowa state income tax rate change for Alliant Energy's Non-utility and Parent. Non-GAAP adjustments, which relate to material charges or income that are not normally associated with ongoing operations, are provided as a supplement to results reported in accordance with GAAP.

Estimated Temperature Impacts to Non-GAAP EPS - The estimated year-to-date impact of temperatures on EPS compared to normal temperatures is a $0.02 per share loss in 2023. The midpoint of the temperature normalized non-GAAP EPS guidance for the full year 2023 is $2.89.

Details regarding GAAP EPS variances between the third quarters of 2023 and 2022 for Alliant Energy are as follows:

	Variance
Revenue requirements and higher AFUDC from WPL capital investments	$	0.08
Lower other operation and maintenance expenses		0.04
Higher interest expense		(0.04	)
Iowa state income tax rate change - 2022		0.03
Iowa state income tax rate change - 2023		(0.03	)
Other		0.04
Total	$	0.12

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 $0.04 per share increase in the third 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 $0.04 per share higher AFUDC in the third quarter of 2023.

Iowa state income tax rate changes - 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 changes in the corporate income tax rate resulted in a non-GAAP charge of $8 million or $0.03 per share in the third quarter of 2023, compared to a non-GAAP charge of $8 million or $0.03 per share recorded in the third quarter of 2022 related to the Iowa corporate income tax rate change effective January 1, 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. The lower tax rate also resulted in reductions in regulatory assets recorded in the third quarter of 2023 and 2022 related to the remeasurement of deferred income tax liabilities at IPL, which is expected to provide cost benefits to its Iowa customers in the future.

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 three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022 excluding charges related to the Iowa state income tax rate changes. Alliant Energy believes this non-GAAP financial measure is useful to investors because it provides 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 provides 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 three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022. 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.

This press release references year-over-year variances in utility electric margins and utility gas margins. Utility electric margins and utility gas margins are non-GAAP financial measures that will be reported and reconciled to the most directly comparable GAAP measure, operating income, in our third quarter 2023 Form 10-Q.

This press release also includes temperature-normalized non-GAAP EPS guidance for the year ended December 31, 2023. Alliant Energy believes this non-GAAP measure is useful to investors because the measure facilitates period-to-period comparison of Alliant Energy's operating performance and provides investors with information on a basis consistent with measures that management uses to assess Alliant Energy's earnings growth 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 guidance, in the press release above.

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