"The second quarter results reflect earning on our increasing rate base, while managing impacts to customers," said Patricia Kampling, Alliant Energy Chairman, President and CEO. "The results are in line with our expectations, allowing us to reaffirm our 2016 earnings guidance."
Utilities, ATC and Corporate Services - Alliant Energy's Utilities, American Transmission Company LLC (ATC) and Alliant Energy Corporate Services, Inc. (Corporate Services) operations generated $0.35 per share of GAAP EPS from continuing operations in the second quarter of 2016, which was $0.09 per share higher than the second quarter of 2015. The primary drivers of higher EPS were timing of income tax expense, losses on sales of Minnesota electric and gas distribution assets at Interstate Power and Light Company (IPL) in 2015, estimated temperature impacts on electric and gas sales, higher allowance for funds used during construction, lower retail electric customer billing credits at IPL, and lower energy efficiency cost recovery amortizations at Wisconsin Power and Light Company (WPL).
Non-regulated and Parent - Alliant Energy's Non-regulated and Parent operations generated $0.02 per share of GAAP EPS from continuing operations in the second quarter of 2016, which was $0.03 per share lower than the second quarter of 2015. The timing of income taxes at the Parent contributed to the lower quarter-over-quarter earnings.
Earnings Adjustments - Non-GAAP EPS for the three months ended June 30, 2015 excludes losses of $0.03 per share from the sales of IPL's Minnesota electric and gas distribution assets. 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.
Common Stock Split - In April 2016, Alliant Energy's Board of Directors approved a two-for-one common stock split and a proportionate increase in the number of authorized shares of common stock of Alliant Energy from 240 million shares to 480 million shares to implement the stock split. Alliant Energy shareowners of record at the close of business on May 4, 2016 received one additional share of Alliant Energy common stock for each share held on that date. The proportionate interest that a shareowner owns in Alliant Energy did not change as a result of the stock split. The additional shares were distributed on May 19, 2016 and post-split trading began on May 20, 2016. All share and per share amounts in this release have been reflected on a post-split basis.
Details regarding GAAP EPS from continuing operations variances between the second quarters of 2016 and 2015 for Alliant Energy are as follows:

Losses on sales of Minnesota electric and gas distribution assets in 2015 at IPL - In April 2015 and July 2015, IPL completed the sales of its Minnesota gas and electric distribution assets, respectively, and received aggregate proceeds of approximately $145 million, including working capital adjustments and a $2 million promissory note. The premium received over the book value of the property, plant and equipment sold was more than offset by a tax-related regulatory asset associated with the Minnesota distribution assets, resulting in a $0.03 per share non-recurring loss recorded in the second quarter of 2015.
Lower retail electric customer billing credits at IPL - IPL is providing customer billing credits to its Iowa retail electric customers of $105 million in aggregate over the 2014-2016 period in connection with its approved Iowa retail electric base rate freeze through 2016. In 2016, IPL will credit customer bills by approximately $9 million and the credits will occur ratably throughout the year. By comparison, the billing credits in 2015 were approximately $24 million.
Higher stock-based performance compensation expense - Stock-based performance compensation is contingent upon achievement of specified performance criteria over a 3-year period, including total shareowner return relative to an investor-owned utility peer group. Total shareowner return is comprised of the change in the share price, plus any dividends paid over the period. Alliant Energy's stock price has outperformed a majority of its peers in the second quarter of 2016, thus stock-based performance compensation expense is higher when compared to second quarter 2015.
2016 Earnings Guidance
Alliant Energy is reaffirming EPS guidance for 2016 as follows:
Utilities, ATC and Corporate Services |
$1.77 - $1.90 |

Alliant Energy Consolidated |

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. Actual results could be materially affected by the following factors, among others:
- federal and state regulatory or governmental actions, including the impact of energy, tax, financial and health care legislation, and of regulatory agency orders;
- IPL's and WPL's ability to obtain adequate and timely rate relief to allow for, among other things, the recovery of fuel costs, operating costs, transmission costs, deferred expenditures, capital expenditures, and remaining costs related to electric generating units (EGUs) that may be permanently closed, earning their authorized rates of return, and the payments to their parent of expected levels of dividends;
- the ability to continue cost controls and operational efficiencies;
- the impact of IPL's retail electric base rate freeze in Iowa during 2016;
- the impacts of WPL's retail electric and gas base rate freeze in Wisconsin during 2016 and WPL's pending retail base rate case for the 2017/2018 Test Period;
- weather effects on results of utility operations, including impacts of temperature changes in IPL's and WPL's service territories on customers' demand for electricity and gas;
- the impact of the economy in IPL's and WPL's service territories and the resulting impacts on sales volumes, margins and the ability to collect unpaid bills;

In July 2015 and April 2015, IPL completed the sales of its Minnesota electric and gas distribution assets, respectively. Following the electric sale, Minnesota electric sales were reported as wholesale versus retail. |
(c) |
Electric customer count decrease was largely due to sale of IPL's Minnesota electric distribution assets in July 2015. |
