FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
Statements contained in this report that are not of historical fact are forward-looking statements intended to qualify for the safe harbors from liability established by the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These forward-looking statements can be identified as such because the statements include words such as “may,” “believe,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “plan,” “project,” “will,” “projections,” “estimate,” or other words of similar import. Similarly, statements that describe future financial performance or plans or strategies are forward-looking statements. Such forward-looking statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed in, or implied by, such statements. Some, but not all, of the risks and uncertainties of Alliant Energy, IPL and WPL that could materially affect actual results include:
•IPL’s and WPL’s ability to obtain adequate and timely rate relief to allow for, among other things, the recovery of and/or the return on costs, including fuel costs, operating costs, transmission costs, capacity costs, costs of generation projects including such costs that exceed initial estimates, deferred expenditures, deferred tax assets, tax expense, interest expense, capital expenditures, marginal costs to service new customers, and remaining costs related to EGUs that have been or may be permanently closed and certain other retired assets, environmental remediation costs, and decreases in sales volumes, as well as earning their authorized rates of return, payments to their parent of expected levels of dividends, the impact of rate design on current and potential customers and demand for energy in their service territories, and the ability to obtain regulatory approval with acceptable conditions for individual customer rates for large load growth customers;
•the impact of IPL’s retail electric base rate moratorium;
•the ability to complete construction of generation and energy 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, inflation, labor issues or supply shortages, the ability to successfully resolve warranty issues or contract disputes and the ability to obtain adequate generator interconnection agreements to connect the new projects to MISO in a timely manner;
•weather effects on utility sales volumes and operations;
•the direct or indirect effects resulting from cybersecurity incidents or attacks on Alliant Energy, IPL, WPL, or their suppliers, contractors and partners, or responses to such incidents;
•the impact of customer- and third party-owned generation, including alternative electric suppliers, in IPL’s and WPL’s service territories on system reliability, operating expenses and customers’ demand for electricity;
•economic conditions and the impact of business or facility closures in IPL’s and WPL’s service territories;
•the ability and cost to provide sufficient generation and the ability of ITC Midwest LLC and ATC to provide sufficient transmission capacity for potential load growth, including significant new commercial or industrial customers, such as data centers;
•the ability of potential large load growth customers to timely construct new facilities, as well as the resulting higher system load demand by expected levels and timeframes;
•the impact of energy efficiency, franchise retention and customer disconnects on sales volumes and operating income;
•the impact that price changes may have on IPL’s and WPL’s customers’ demand for electric and gas services and their ability to pay their bills;
•changes in the price of delivered natural gas, transmission, purchased electric energy, purchased electric capacity and delivered coal, particularly during elevated market prices, and any resulting changes to counterparty credit risk, due to shifts in supply and demand caused by market conditions, regulations and MISO’s seasonal resource adequacy process;
•the ability to obtain regulatory approval for construction projects with acceptable conditions;
•the ability to achieve the expected level of tax benefits based on tax guidelines, timely in-service dates, compliance with prevailing wage and apprenticeship requirements, project costs and the level of electricity output generated by qualifying generating facilities, and the ability to efficiently utilize the renewable generation and energy storage project tax benefits to achieve IPL’s authorized rate of return and for the benefit of IPL’s and WPL’s customers;
•the ability to utilize tax credits generated to date, and those that may be generated in the future, before they expire, as well as the ability to transfer tax credits that may be generated in the future at adequate pricing;
•federal and state regulatory or governmental actions, including the impact of legislation, regulatory agency orders and executive orders, and changes in public policy, including the potential repeal of the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022;
•disruptions to ongoing operations and the supply of materials, services, equipment and commodities needed to continue to operate and maintain existing assets and to construct capital projects, which may result from geopolitical issues, tariffs, supplier manufacturing constraints, regulatory requirements, labor issues or transportation issues, and thus affect the ability to meet capacity requirements and result in increased capacity expense;
•the impacts of changes in the tax code, including tax rates, minimum tax rates, adjustments made to deferred tax assets and liabilities, and changes impacting the availability of and ability to transfer renewable tax credits;
•inflation and higher interest rates;
•continued access to the capital markets on competitive terms and rates, and the actions of credit rating agencies;
•the future development of technologies related to electrification, and the ability to reliably store and manage electricity;

•impacts that terrorist attacks may have on Alliant Energy’s, IPL’s and WPL’s operations and recovery of costs associated with restoration activities, or on the operations of Alliant Energy’s investments;
•changes to MISO’s resource adequacy process establishing capacity planning reserve margin and capacity accreditation requirements that may impact how and when new and existing generating facilities, including IPL’s and WPL’s additional solar generation, may be accredited with energy capacity, and may require IPL and WPL to adjust their current resource plans, to add resources to meet the requirements of MISO’s process, or procure capacity in the market whereby such costs might not be recovered in rates;
•any material post-closing payments related to any past asset divestitures, including the transfer of renewable tax credits, which could result from, among other things, indemnification agreements, warranties, guarantees or litigation;
•issues associated with environmental remediation and environmental compliance, including compliance with all current environmental and emissions laws, regulations and permits and future changes in environmental laws and regulations, including the Coal Combustion Residuals Rule, Cross-State Air Pollution Rule and federal, state or local regulations for emissions reductions, including greenhouse gases, from new and existing fossil-fueled EGUs under the Clean Air Act, and litigation associated with environmental requirements;
•increased pressure from customers, investors and other stakeholders to more rapidly reduce greenhouse gases emissions;
•the timely development of technologies, innovations and advancements to provide cost effective alternatives to traditional energy sources;
•the ability to defend against environmental claims brought by state and federal agencies, such as the EPA and state natural resources agencies, or third parties, such as the Sierra Club, and the impact on operating expenses of defending and resolving such claims;

•issues related to the availability and operations of EGUs, including start-up risks, breakdown or failure of equipment, availability of warranty coverage and successful resolution of warranty issues or contract disputes for equipment breakdowns or failures, performance below expected or contracted levels of output or efficiency, operator error, employee safety, transmission constraints, compliance with mandatory reliability standards and risks related to recovery of resulting incremental operating, capacity, fuel-related and capital costs through rates;
•impacts that excessive heat, excessive cold, storms, wildfires, or natural disasters may have on Alliant Energy’s, IPL’s and WPL’s operations and construction activities, and recovery of costs associated with restoration activities, or on the operations of Alliant Energy’s investments;
•Alliant Energy’s ability to sustain its dividend payout ratio goal;
•changes to costs of providing benefits and related funding requirements of pension and OPEB plans due to the market value of the assets that fund the plans, economic conditions, financial market performance, interest rates, timing and form of benefits payments, life expectancies and demographics;

(a)Alliant Energy’s and IPL’s available credit facility capacities reflect outstanding commercial paper classified as both short- and long-term debt at March 31, 2025.
NOTE 6(b) Long-term Debt - In March 2025, AEF entered into a $300 million variable rate (5% as of March 31, 2025) term loan credit agreement (with Alliant Energy as guarantor), which expires in March 2026. This term loan credit agreement amended and restated the term loan credit agreement that expired in March 2025, and retired the $300 million variable rate term loan set forth therein. AEF’s restated term loan credit agreement includes an option to increase the amount outstanding with one or more additional term loans in an aggregate amount not to exceed $100 million.
As of March 31, 2025, $100 million of commercial paper was recorded in “Long-term debt, net” on Alliant Energy’s and IPL’s balance sheets due to the existence of the long-term single credit facility that back-stops this commercial paper balance, along with Alliant Energy’s and IPL’s intent and ability to refinance these balances on a long-term basis. As of March 31, 2025, this commercial paper balance had a 4.6% interest rate. In the second quarter of 2025, Alliant Energy’s and IPL’s commercial paper classified as long-term debt increased $50 million.
Convertible Senior Notes - As of March 31, 2025, the conditions allowing holders of Alliant Energy’s convertible senior notes due 2026 (the Notes) to convert their Notes were not met, and the Notes were classified as “Current maturities of long-term debt” on Alliant Energy’s balance sheet. As of March 31, 2025, the net carrying amount of the Notes was $572 million, with unamortized debt issuance costs of $3 million, and the estimated fair value (Level 2) of the Notes was $617 million. As of March 31, 2025, there were no shares of Alliant Energy’s common stock related to the potential conversion of the Notes included in diluted EPS based on Alliant Energy’s average stock prices and the relevant terms of the Notes.

NOTE 8. INCOME TAXES
Income Tax Rates - Overall effective income tax rates for the three months ended March 31, which were computed by dividing income tax expense (benefit) by income before income taxes, were as follows. The effective income tax rates were different than the federal statutory rate primarily due to state income taxes, production tax credits, investment tax credits, amortization of excess deferred taxes and the effect of rate-making on property-related differences. Alliant Energy’s, IPL’s and WPL’s effective income tax rates were lower in the first quarter of 2025 compared to the same period in 2024 primarily due to the additional tax credits from renewable generation and energy storage projects placed in service in 2024 and/or expected to be placed in service in 2025.

As of March 31, 2025, Alliant Energy’s, IPL’s and WPL’s total unrecognized compensation cost related to share-based compensation awards was $22 million, $11 million and $10 million, respectively, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of between 1 year and 2 years.
For the three months ended March 31, 2025, performance shares and restricted stock units were granted to key employees under the equity-based compensation plans as follows. These shares and units will be paid out in shares of common stock, and are therefore accounted for as equity awards.
| | | | | | | | | | | |
| | | Weighted Average |
| Grants | | Grant Date Fair Value |
Performance shares (total shareowner return metric) | 78,689 | | $69.33 |
Performance shares (net income and environmental metrics) | 89,930 | | 61.62 |
Restricted stock units | 82,641 | | 61.62 |
As of March 31, 2025, 408,289 shares were included in the calculation of diluted EPS related to the nonvested equity awards.
NOTE 10. DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS
Commodity Derivatives -
Notional Amounts - As of March 31, 2025, gross notional amounts and settlement/delivery years related to outstanding swap contracts, option contracts, physical forward contracts and financial transmission rights (FTRs) that were accounted for as commodity derivative instruments were as follows (units in thousands; megawatt-hour (MWh); dekatherm (Dth)):
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| Electricity | | FTRs | | Natural Gas | | | | Diesel Fuel |

Financial Statement Presentation - Derivative instruments are recorded at fair value each reporting date on the balance sheets as assets or liabilities as follows (in millions):
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| Alliant Energy | | IPL | | WPL |
| March 31, 2025 | | December 31, 2024 | | March 31, 2025 | | December 31, 2024 | | March 31, 2025 | | December 31, 2024 |
Current derivative assets | $44 | | $41 | | $26 | | $29 | | $18 | | $12 |
Non-current derivative assets | 26 | | 34 | | 14 | | 19 | | 12 | | 15 |
Current derivative liabilities | 16 | | 26 | | 6 | | 11 | | 10 | | 15 |
Non-current derivative liabilities | 36 | | 32 | | 4 | | 2 | | 32 | | 30 |
Based on IPL’s and WPL’s cost recovery mechanisms, the changes in the fair value of derivative liabilities/assets result in comparable changes to regulatory assets/liabilities on the balance sheets.
Credit Risk-related Contingent Features - Various agreements contain credit risk-related contingent features, including requirements to maintain certain credit ratings and/or limitations on liability positions under the agreements based on credit ratings. Certain of these agreements with credit risk-related contingency features are accounted for as derivative instruments. In the event of a material change in creditworthiness or if liability positions exceed certain contractual limits, credit support may need to be provided up to the amount of exposure under the contracts, or the contracts may need to be unwound and underlying liability positions paid. At March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the aggregate fair value of all derivative instruments with credit risk-related contingent features in a net liability position was not materially different than amounts that would be required to be posted as credit support to counterparties by Alliant Energy, IPL or WPL if the most restrictive credit risk-related contingent features for derivative agreements in a net liability position were triggered.
Balance Sheet Offsetting - The fair value amounts of derivative instruments subject to a master netting arrangement are not netted by counterparty on the balance sheets. However, if the fair value amounts of derivative instruments by counterparty were netted, derivative assets and derivative liabilities related to commodity contracts would have been presented on the balance sheets as follows (in millions):
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| Alliant Energy | | IPL | | WPL |

Derivative liabilities | 58 | | 47 | | 13 | | 8 | | 45 | | 39 |
Fair value amounts recognized for the right to reclaim cash collateral (receivable) or the obligation to return cash collateral (payable) are not offset against fair value amounts recognized for derivative instruments executed with the same counterparty under the same master netting arrangement.
NOTE 11. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
Fair Value of Financial Instruments - The carrying amounts of current assets and current liabilities approximate fair value because of the short maturity of such financial instruments. Carrying amounts and related estimated fair values of other financial instruments were as follows (in millions):

NOTE 12. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
NOTE 12(a) Capital Purchase Commitments - Various contractual obligations contain minimum future commitments related to capital expenditures for certain construction projects, including IPL’s and WPL’s expansion of energy storage, and improvements at the natural gas-fired Neenah Energy Facility and Sheboygan Falls Energy Facility. At March 31, 2025, Alliant Energy’s, IPL’s and WPL’s minimum future commitments for these projects were $301 million, $136 million and $163 million, respectively.
NOTE 12(b) Other Purchase Commitments - Various commodity supply, transportation and storage contracts help meet obligations to provide electricity and natural gas to utility customers. In addition, there are various purchase commitments associated with other goods and services. At March 31, 2025, the related minimum future commitments, excluding amounts for purchased power commitments that do not have minimum thresholds but will require payment when electricity is generated by the provider, were as follows (in millions):
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| Alliant Energy | | IPL | | WPL |
Natural gas | $872 | | $500 | | $372 |

(a)Includes individual commitments incurred during the normal course of business that exceeded $1 million at March 31, 2025.
NOTE 12(c) Guarantees and Indemnifications -
Whiting Petroleum Corporation (Whiting Petroleum) - In 2004, Alliant Energy sold its remaining interest in Whiting Petroleum, an independent oil and gas company. Alliant Energy Resources, LLC, as the successor to a predecessor entity that owned Whiting Petroleum, and a wholly-owned subsidiary of AEF, has guaranteed the partnership obligations of an affiliate of Whiting Petroleum under multiple general partnership agreements in the oil and gas industry. The guarantees do not include a maximum limit. Based on information made available to Alliant Energy by Whiting Petroleum, the Whiting Petroleum affiliate holds an approximate 6% share in the partnerships, and currently known obligations include costs associated with the future abandonment of certain facilities owned by the partnerships. The general partnerships were formed under California law, and Alliant Energy Resources, LLC may need to perform under the guarantees if the affiliate of Whiting Petroleum is unable to meet its partnership obligations.
Whiting Petroleum previously completed bankruptcy proceedings and business combinations, which substantially reduce the likelihood that Alliant Energy will be obligated to make any payments under these guarantees. As of March 31, 2025, the currently known partnership obligations for the abandonment obligations are estimated at $54 million, which represents Alliant Energy’s currently estimated maximum exposure under the guarantees. Alliant Energy is not currently aware of, nor does it currently expect to incur in the future, any material liabilities related to these guarantees and therefore has not recognized any material liabilities related to these guarantees as of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024.
Non-utility Wind Farm in Oklahoma - In 2017, a wholly-owned subsidiary of AEF acquired a cash equity ownership interest in a non-utility wind farm located in Oklahoma. The wind farm provides electricity to a third party under a long-term purchased power agreement (PPA). Alliant Energy provided a parent guarantee of its subsidiary’s indemnification obligations under the related operating agreement and PPA. Alliant Energy’s obligations under the operating agreement were $43 million as of March 31, 2025 and will reduce annually until expiring in July 2047. Alliant Energy’s obligations under the PPA are subject to a maximum limit of $17 million and expire in December 2031, subject to potential extension. Alliant Energy is not aware of any material liabilities related to this guarantee that it is probable that it will be obligated to pay and therefore has not recognized any material liabilities related to this guarantee as of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024.
Transfers of Renewable Tax Credits - IPL and WPL have entered into agreements to transfer renewable tax credits from certain wind, solar and energy storage facilities to other corporate taxpayers in exchange for cash. As of March 31, 2025, IPL and WPL provided indemnifications associated with $193 million and $121 million, respectively, of proceeds for renewable tax credits transferred to other corporate taxpayers in the event of an adverse interpretation of tax law, including whether the related tax credits meet the qualification requirements. Alliant Energy, IPL and WPL believe the likelihood of having to make any material cash payments under these indemnifications is remote.
Electric Transmission Infrastructure - IPL and WPL have entered into agreements with their respective electric transmission service providers related to the construction of infrastructure necessary for the data centers that are expected to be built in IPL’s and WPL’s service territories by certain of their customers. If these construction projects were to be terminated prior to the infrastructure being placed in service by the electric transmission service providers, then IPL or WPL must reimburse their respective provider for the related costs incurred to-date. As of March 31, 2025, IPL’s and WPL’s related guarantees were approximately $6 million and $15 million, respectively. Alliant Energy, IPL and WPL are not aware of any material liabilities related to these guarantees that it is probable that they will be obligated to pay and therefore have not recognized any material liabilities related to these guarantees as of March 31, 2025.
NOTE 12(d) Environmental Matters -
Manufactured Gas Plant (MGP) Sites - IPL and WPL have current or previous ownership interests in various sites that are previously associated with the production of gas for which IPL and WPL have, or may have in the future, liability for investigation, remediation and monitoring costs. IPL and WPL are working pursuant to the requirements of various federal and state agencies to investigate, mitigate, prevent and remediate, where necessary, the environmental impacts to property, including natural resources, at and around these former MGP sites in order to protect public health and the environment. At March 31, 2025, estimated future costs expected to be incurred for the investigation, remediation and monitoring of the MGP sites, as well as environmental liabilities recorded on the balance sheets for these sites, which are not discounted, were as follows (in millions):
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| Alliant Energy | | IPL | | WPL |

IPL Consent Decree - In 2015, the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Iowa approved a Consent Decree that IPL entered into with the EPA, the Sierra Club, the State of Iowa and Linn County in Iowa, thereby resolving potential Clean Air Act issues associated with emissions from IPL’s coal-fired generating facilities in Iowa. IPL has completed various requirements under the Consent Decree. IPL’s remaining requirements include fuel switching or retiring Prairie Creek Units 1 and 3 by December 31, 2025. Alliant Energy and IPL currently expect to recover material costs incurred by IPL related to compliance with the terms of the Consent Decree from IPL’s electric customers.
Other Environmental Contingencies - In addition to the environmental liabilities discussed above, various environmental rules are monitored that may have a significant impact on future operations. Several of these environmental rules are subject to legal challenges, reconsideration and/or other uncertainties. Given uncertainties regarding the outcome, timing and compliance plans for these environmental matters, the complete financial impact of each of these rules is not able to be determined; however, future capital investments and/or modifications to EGUs and electric and gas distribution systems to comply with certain of these rules could be significant. Specific current, proposed or potential environmental matters include, among others: Cross-State Air Pollution Rule, Effluent Limitation Guidelines, Coal Combustion Residuals Rule, and various legislation and EPA regulations to monitor and regulate the emission of greenhouse gases, including the Clean Air Act.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
This MDA includes information relating to Alliant Energy, and IPL and WPL (collectively, the Utilities), as well as ATC Holdings, AEF and Corporate Services. Where appropriate, information relating to a specific entity has been segregated and labeled as such. The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the Financial Statements and the Notes included in this report, as well as the financial statements, notes and MDA included in the 2024 Form 10-K. Unless otherwise noted, all “per share” references in MDA refer to earnings per diluted share.
2025 HIGHLIGHTS
Key highlights since the filing of the 2024 Form 10-K include the following:
Customer Investments:
•Over the next six years, Alliant Energy currently plans to develop and/or acquire new generation investments to add flexibility with evolving load growth, including approximately 1,500 MW of new natural gas resources, approximately 1,200 MW of new wind generation, approximately 800 MW of new energy storage, refurbishments at approximately 500 MW of existing wind farms, improvements of approximately 280 MW at existing natural gas-fired EGUs, and the conversion of existing coal-fired EGUs to natural gas. Alliant Energy is currently evaluating the impact of potential additional large load growth customers and MISO’s seasonal resource adequacy requirements on its resource plans and will update these generation investment plans as needed in the future. Estimated capital expenditures for these planned projects for 2025 through 2028 are included in the “Generation” section in the construction and acquisition table in “Liquidity and Capital Resources.” Information on IPL’s and WPL’s regulatory filings and/or approvals for future generation and energy storage projects are as follows: •In February 2025, WPL filed a certificate of authority application with the PSCW for approval to construct a 2 billion cubic feet, or 25 million gallon, liquified natural gas facility in Rock County, Wisconsin. A decision from the PSCW is currently expected in the second quarter of 2026.
•In April 2025, the PSCW issued an order authorizing WPL to construct, own and operate a 17.5 MW natural gas-fired EGU using Reciprocating Internal Combustion Engine (RICE) technology, at the site of its Riverside Energy Center in Rock County, Wisconsin.
•In April 2025, WPL filed a certificate of authority application with the PSCW for approval to construct, own and operate the Bent Tree North EGU, an approximate 153 MW wind farm in Freeborn County, Minnesota, which would be eligible for production tax credits under the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022. A decision from the PSCW is currently expected in the second quarter of 2026.
•In April 2025, IPL filed a certificate of public convenience, use and necessity application with the IUC for approval to construct, own and operate up to 150 MW of energy storage at the site of its retired Lansing Generating Station in Iowa, which would be eligible for investment tax credits under the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022. A decision from the IUC is currently expected in the fourth quarter of 2025.
•In May 2025, the PSCW issued an order authorizing WPL to refurbish the Bent Tree wind farm, which would be eligible for production tax credits under the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022.
•In May 2025, IPL filed a certificate of public convenience, use and necessity application with the IUC for approval to construct, own and operate up to 75 MW of energy storage at the site of its Golden Plains wind farm in Iowa, which would be eligible for investment tax credits under the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022. A decision from the IUC is currently expected in the fourth quarter of 2025.
•In April 2025, WPL submitted an application to the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers for up to $45 million in loans through the Corps Water Infrastructure Financing Program. If finalized, such loans would provide low interest financing for various proposed safety projects at WPL’s Kilbourn and Prairie du Sac hydro EGUs.
Rate Matters:
•In March 2025, WPL filed a retail electric and gas rate review with the PSCW for the 2026/2027 forward-looking Test Period. The key drivers for the filing include revenue requirement impacts of increasing electric and gas rate base, including wind refurbishment projects, energy storage, existing natural gas-fired EGU improvements, solar generation costs incurred that exceed the construction cost estimates previously approved by the PSCW, and electric and gas distribution investments. The filing requested approval for WPL to implement increases in annual rates for its retail electric and gas customers of $120 million and $9 million in 2026, respectively, with any granted rate changes expected to be effective on January 1, 2026. WPL’s filing also requested approval to implement an additional increase in annual rates for its retail electric and gas customers of $82 million and $5 million in 2027, respectively, with any granted rate changes expected to be effective on January 1, 2027. WPL also requested a return on common equity of 9.9% and to implement a common equity component of its regulatory capital structure of 55.5% in 2026 and 55.3% in 2027. WPL’s filing also requested an extension, with certain modifications, of its current earnings sharing mechanism through 2027, including deferral of a portion of its earnings if its annual regulatory return on common equity exceeds 10.15% during the 2026/2027 Test Period (deferral of 50% of its excess earnings between 10.15% and 10.65%, and 100% of any excess earnings above 10.65%). A decision from the PSCW is currently expected by the end of 2025.
Growing Customer Demand:
•WPL has entered into an electric service agreement with a new customer, who currently expects to build a data center at the Beaver Dam Commerce Park in Beaver Dam, Wisconsin in WPL’s service territory. The actual timing and amount of increases in WPL’s load are subject to various factors, including interconnections and actual customer demand, and any executed or future agreements with customers are not expected to result in immediate increases in load. IPL’s and WPL’s currently executed electric service agreements include aggregate, maximum demands of approximately 2.1 gigawatts.
•In February 2025 and April 2025, IPL and WPL filed requests with the IUC and PSCW, respectively, for approval of the individual customer rates associated with certain of the data centers expected to be constructed in their service territories. Decisions from the IUC and PSCW are currently expected by the end of the third quarter of 2025.
Environmental Matters:
•In March 2025, the EPA announced it expects to initiate a formal reconsideration of various environmental regulations and programs, including Clean Air Act Sections 111(b) and 111(d), the Cross-State Air Pollution Rule and Effluent Limitation Guidelines. The EPA also expects to expedite review of state programs to delegate implementation of the Coal Combustion Residuals Rule and reconsider compliance deadlines. Alliant Energy, IPL and WPL are currently unable to predict with certainty the future outcome or impact of these matters, including resolution of ongoing litigation.
Financings:
•Refer to “Results of Operations” for discussion of expected future issuances and retirements of long-term debt in 2025.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Financial Results Overview - The table below includes diluted EPS for Utilities and Corporate Services, ATC Holdings, and Non-utility and Parent, which are non-GAAP financial measures. Alliant Energy believes these non-GAAP financial measures are useful to investors because they facilitate an understanding of 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. Alliant Energy’s net income and EPS attributable to Alliant Energy common shareowners for the three months ended March 31 were as follows (dollars in millions, except per share amounts):
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |

Electric Sales for Resale - Bulk Power and Other - Bulk power and other volume changes were due to changes in sales in the wholesale energy markets operated by MISO. These changes are impacted by several factors, including the availability and dispatch of Alliant Energy’s EGUs and electricity demand within these wholesale energy markets. Changes in bulk power and other revenues were largely offset by changes in fuel-related costs, and therefore did not have a significant impact on operating income.
Gas Transportation/Other - Gas transportation/other sales volume changes were largely due to changes in the gas volumes supplied to Alliant Energy’s natural gas-fired EGUs caused by the availability and dispatch of such EGUs.
Electric Utility Revenue Variances - The following items contributed to increased (decreased) electric utility revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2025 compared to the same period in 2024 (in millions):

(a)In September 2024, the IUC issued an order authorizing an annual base rate increase of $185 million for IPL’s retail electric customers, with customers receiving partially offsetting credits for the first 12 months through a tax benefit rider, for the October 2024 through September 2025 forward-looking Test Period. Rate changes were effective October 1, 2024, which reflect revenue requirement impacts of increasing electric rate base including investments in solar generation, updated depreciation rates, and certain incremental costs incurred resulting from the 2020 derecho windstorm. In addition, effective October 1, 2024, IPL’s renewable energy rider was discontinued, and certain production tax credits are credited to IPL’s retail electric customers through IPL’s fuel-related cost recovery mechanism. Credits on IPL’s customers’ bills have been and are expected to be offset by a reduction in income tax expense.
(b)In December 2023, the PSCW issued an order authorizing an annual base rate increase of $60 million for WPL’s retail electric customers, covering the 2025 forward-looking Test Period, which reflects revenue requirement impacts of increasing electric rate base including investments in solar generation and energy storage.
(c)WPL’s cost recovery mechanism for retail fuel-related expenses supports deferrals of amounts that fall outside an approved fuel monitoring range of forecasted fuel-related expenses determined by the PSCW each year. The difference between revenue collected and actual fuel-related expenses incurred within the fuel monitoring range increases or decreases Alliant Energy’s and WPL’s electric utility revenues. WPL estimates the increase (decrease) to electric utility revenues from amounts within the fuel monitoring range were approximately ($4) million and $1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

Construction and Acquisition Expenditures - Construction and acquisition expenditures and financing plans are reviewed, approved and updated as part of the strategic planning process. Changes may result from a number of reasons, including changes in expected load growth, regulatory requirements, changing legislation, not obtaining favorable and acceptable regulatory approval on certain projects, changing costs of projects due to market conditions and the impact of tariffs, improvements in technology, and improvements to ensure resiliency and reliability of the electric and gas distribution systems. Alliant Energy, IPL and WPL have not yet entered into contractual commitments relating to the majority of their anticipated future construction and acquisition expenditures. As a result, they have some discretion with regard to the level and timing of these expenditures. Construction and acquisition expenditures for 2025 through 2028 are currently anticipated as follows (in millions), which are focused on adding generation to meet growing customer demand for electricity, including expected future data center growth from currently executed electric service agreements, and strengthening the resiliency and reliability of the electric grid, and include renewable generation and energy storage projects, dispatchable gas generation projects, and converting certain coal-fired EGUs to natural gas. Alliant Energy, IPL and WPL are currently evaluating the impact of tariffs and the impact of additional potential large load growth customers on their resource plans and will update their anticipated construction and acquisition expenditures as needed in the future. Cost estimates represent Alliant Energy’s, IPL’s and WPL’s portion of construction expenditures and exclude allowance for funds used during construction and capitalized interest, if applicable.
