NOTE 8.9. INCOME TAXES
Income Tax Rates - Overall effective income tax rates, 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, amortization of excess deferred taxes and the effect of rate-making on property-related differences. The increases in Alliant Energy’s and WPL’s overall effective income tax rates for the three months ended March 31, 2022 compared to the same period in 2021 were primarily due to decreased amortization of excess deferred taxes primarily at WPL.

Iowa Tax Reform - In March 2022, Iowa tax reform was enacted, which would reduce the current 9.8% Iowa corporate income tax rate beginning in 2023 if certain state income tax revenue triggers are satisfied. Annually, and by each November 1, the Iowa Department of Revenue will establish corporate income tax rates for the next tax year based on net corporate income tax receipts for the prior tax year. Rate reductions are currently expected to occur over a period of several years, with a target corporate income tax rate of 5.5%. Alliant Energy is currently unable to predict with certainty the timing or amount of any rate reductions. The majority of any reduction in income tax expense as a result of the lower Iowa corporate income tax rate is currently expected to reduce rates for IPL’s customers. In addition, after the 2023 corporate income tax rate is known in the fourth quarter of 2022, Alliant Energy currently expects to record a charge related to the remeasurement of accumulated deferred income tax assets at its non-utility businesses. | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |

During the three months ended March 31, 2022,2023, Alliant Energy’s, IPL’s and WPL’s current derivative assets decreased primarily due to settlements of natural gas, FTR and electricity contracts. Alliant Energy’s and WPL’s derivative liabilities increased primarily as a result of higherdue to lower natural gas prices. IPL’s current derivative liabilities decreased primarily due to settlements of natural gas contracts. Based on IPL’s and WPL’s natural gas cost recovery mechanisms, thisthe changes in the fair value of derivative liabilities/assets resulted in corresponding increases in derivativecomparable 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 in the form of letters of credit or cash collateral 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, 20222023 and December 31, 2021,2022, 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, amounts would not be materially different from gross amounts of derivative assets and derivative liabilities at March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021. related to commodity contracts would have been presented on the balance sheets as follows (in millions):

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.
Interest Rate Derivative - In January 2023, AEF entered into a $300 million interest rate swap maturing in January 2026 to mitigate interest rate risk. Under the terms of the swap, AEF exchanged a variable interest rate for a fixed interest rate of 3.93% on a portion of its variable-rate term loan borrowings. The related interest rate derivative was valued based on quoted prices that utilize current market interest rate forecasts. As of March 31, 2023, $1 million of non-current interest rate derivative liabilities were recorded in “Other liabilities” on Alliant Energy’s balance sheet. This interest rate derivative was designated as a cash flow hedge, with changes in fair value recorded as other comprehensive income/loss. As of March 31, 2023, accumulated other comprehensive loss included $1 million of losses related to the interest rate swap. For the three months ended March 31, 2023, a $1 million reduction to interest expense was recorded in Alliant Energy’s income statement related to the interest rate swap.

NOTE 12(c)13(c) Guarantees and Indemnifications -
Whiting Petroleum - Whiting Petroleum is an independent oil and gas company. In 2004, Alliant Energy sold its remaining interest in Whiting Petroleum. Alliant Energy Resources, LLC, as the successor to a predecessor entity that owned Whiting Petroleum, and a wholly-owned subsidiary of AEF, continues to guarantee 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.
As of March 31, 2022,2023, the currently known partnership obligations for the abandonment obligations are estimated at $60$58 million, which represents Alliant Energy’s currently estimated maximum exposure under the guarantees. Alliant Energy estimates its expected loss to be a portion of the $60$58 million of known partnership abandonment obligations of the Whiting Petroleum affiliate and the other partners. Alliant Energy is not aware of any material liabilities related to these guarantees that it is probable that it will be obligated to pay; however, as of both March 31, 20222023 and December 31, 2021,2022, a liability of $5 million is recorded in “Other liabilities” on Alliant Energy’s balance sheets for expected credit losses related to the contingent obligations that are in the scope of these guarantees.
Whiting Petroleum completed a business combination with Oasis Petroleum Inc. in July 2022. The combined operations are now known as Chord Energy Corporation. The business combination is not expected to affect the scope of the Whiting Petroleum affiliate’s obligations to Alliant Energy or Alliant Energy’s related guarantees.
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 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 $67$59 million as of March 31, 20222023 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, 20222023 and December 31, 2021.2022.
NOTE 12(d)13(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, 2022,2023, 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). At March 31, 2022, such amounts for WPL were not material.:
| | | Alliant Energy | | IPL | | Alliant Energy | | IPL | | WPL |
Range of estimated future costs | Range of estimated future costs | $10 | | - | $26 | | $7 | | - | $20 | Range of estimated future costs | $10 | | - | $37 | | $6 | | - | $12 | | $4 | | - | $25 |
Current and non-current environmental liabilities | Current and non-current environmental liabilities | $12 | | $9 | Current and non-current environmental liabilities | $18 | | $8 | | $10 |
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.
NOTE 12(e) Collective Bargaining Agreements13(e) MISO Transmission Owner Return on Equity Complaints - At March 31,A group of stakeholders, including MISO cooperative and municipal utilities, previously filed complaints with the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) requesting a reduction to the base return on equity authorized for MISO transmission owners, including ITC Midwest LLC and ATC. In 2019, FERC issued an order on the previously filed complaints and reduced the base return on equity authorized for the MISO transmission owners to 9.88% for November 12, 2013 through February 11, 2015, and subsequent to September 28, 2016. In 2020, FERC issued orders in response to various rehearing requests and increased the base return on equity authorized for the MISO transmission owners from 9.88% to 10.02% for November 12, 2013 through February 11, 2015, and subsequent to September 28, 2016. In August 2022, employees covered by collective bargaining agreements represented 55%, 70%the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit vacated FERC’s prior orders that established the base return on equity authorized for the MISO transmission owners and 83% of total employees of Alliant Energy, IPL and WPL, respectively.

20222023 HIGHLIGHTS
Key highlights since the filing of the 20212022 Form 10-K include the following:
Customer Investments:
•In responseMarch 2023, the IUB issued a certificate of public convenience, use and necessity (GCU Certificate) granting IPL approval to a petition from a U.S.-based solar panel assembler, in March 2022, the U.S. Department of Commerce initiated an investigation into whether the sourcingconstruct, own and operate up to 50 MW of solar project materialsgeneration and equipment from certain Southeast Asian countries circumvent tariffs and duties imposed on such materials and equipment imported from China. Alliant Energy, IPL and WPL are currently unableup to predict with certainty the future outcome or impact25 MW of these matters; however, this could resultbattery storage in delays and/or higher costs for IPL’s and WPL’s planned development and acquisition of additional renewable energy, and impact Alliant Energy’s, IPL’s and WPL’s anticipated future construction and acquisition expenditures.Union County, Iowa.
•In April 2022,2023, the IUB issued an order approving IPL’s requesta GCU Certificate granting IPL approval to construct, own and operate up to 150 MW of solar generation and up to 75 MW of battery storage in Lee County, Iowa.
•In 2021, IPL filed for an extension of the procedural schedule related to its November 2021 advance rate-making principles filing with the IUB for up to 400 MW of new solar generation and 75 MW of battery storage. IPL requested an extensionOn April 27, 2023, the IUB approved advance rate-making principles for up to 200 MW of solar generation. The IUB’s order included a cost target of $1,575/kilowatt, including AFUDC and transmission upgrade costs among other costs. Any reasonable and prudent costs incurred in order to review the proposed fixed cost cap included in its November 2021 filing givenexcess of the cost pressures prevalent in the solar generation and battery storage markets,target, as well as narrow the selectionrelated return on common equity, would need to be addressed in future IPL retail electric rate review filings. IPL has 20 days from the date of certain solar generation projects included in the filing. IPL currently expects a decision on itsIUB’s order to ask for reconsideration of the advance rate-making principles, filing byand 30 days from the enddate of 2022.the IUB’s order to accept the approved advance rate-making principles.
Rate Matters:
•In April 2022,2023, WPL receivedfiled a retail electric and gas rate review with the PSCW for the 2024/2025 forward-looking Test Period. The key drivers for the filing include revenue requirement impacts of increasing electric and gas rate base, including investments in solar generation and battery storage. The filing requested approval for WPL to implement increases in annual rates for its retail electric and gas customers of $111 million and $17 million in 2024, respectively, with any granted rate changes expected to be effective on January 1, 2024. WPL’s filing also requested approval to implement an oraladditional $71 million increase in annual rates for its retail electric customers in 2025, with any granted rate changes expected to be effective on January 1, 2025. WPL also requested to maintain its current authorized return on common equity of 10% and implement an approximate 56% common equity component of its regulatory capital structure, as well as receive continued recovery of and a return on the remaining net book value of Edgewater Unit 5, which is currently expected to be retired by June 1, 2025. A decision from the PSCW for its second certificateis expected by the end of authority authorizing WPL to acquire, construct, own, and operate up to 414 MW of new solar generation in the following Wisconsin counties: Dodge (150 MW), Waushara (99 MW), Rock (65 MW), Grant (50 MW) and Green (50 MW).

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Results of operations include financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP as well as utility electric margins and utility gas margins, which are not measures of financial performance under GAAP. Utility electric margins are defined as electric revenues less electric production fuel, purchased power and electric transmission service expenses. Utility gas margins are defined as gas revenues less cost of gas sold. Utility electric margins and utility gas margins are non-GAAP financial measures because they exclude other utility and non-utility revenues, other operation and maintenance expenses, depreciation and amortization expenses, and taxes other than income tax expense.
Management believes that utility electric and gas margins provide a meaningful basis for evaluating and managing utility operations since electric production fuel, purchased power and electric transmission service expenses and cost of gas sold are
generally passed through to customers, and therefore, result in changes to electric and gas revenues that are comparable to changes in such expenses. The presentation of utility electric and gas margins herein is intended to provide supplemental information for investors regarding operating performance. These utility electric and gas margins may not be comparable to how other entities define utility electric and gas margin. Furthermore, these measures are not intended to replace operating income as determined in accordance with GAAP as an indicator of operating performance.
Additionally, the table below includes 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 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.
Financial Results Overview - 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):

Alliant Energy’s Utilities and Corporate Services net income increaseddecreased by $17$20 million for the three-month period, primarily due to lower retail electric and gas sales due to impacts of warmer than normal temperatures on customer demand in the first quarter of 2023, compared to an increase in sales in the first quarter of 2022 due to impacts of colder than normal temperatures on customer demand, higher interest expense and timing of income tax expense. These items were partially offset by higher electric revenues resulting from higher revenue requirements and AFUDC from WPL’s capital investments.
Alliant Energy’s Non-utility and Parent net income decreased by $10 million for the three-month period, primarily due to higher AFUDC, higher earnings resulting from WPL’s increasing rate base, higher sales due to favorable temperature impacts compared to 2021, as well as higher temperature-normalized sales.interest expense.

Electric Sales for Resale - Electric sales for resale volume changes were largely 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 sales for resale revenues were largely offset by changes in fuel-related costs, and therefore, did not have a significant impact on electric margins.
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. Changes in these transportation/other revenues did not have a significant impact on gas margins.
Utility Electric Margin Variances - The following items contributed to increased (decreased) utility electric margins for the three months ended March 31, 20222023 compared to the same period in 20212022 as follows (in millions):

(a)In December 2021, the PSCW issued an order authorizing annual base rate increases of $114 million and $15 million for WPL’s retail electric and gas customers, respectively, covering the 2022/2023 forward-looking Test Period, which was based on a stipulated agreement between WPL and certain stakeholders. The key drivers for the annual base rate increases include higher retail fuel-related costs in 2022, lower excess deferred income tax benefits in 2022 and 2023 compared to 2021, and revenue requirement impacts of increasing electric and gas rate base, including investments in solar generation. Retail electric rate changes were effective on January 1, 2022 and extend through the end of 2023. Retail gas rate changes were effective on January 1, 2022 and extend through the end of 2022. The higher fuel expense costs are recognized in electric margin and the lower amount of excess deferred income tax benefits is recognized as a reduction in income tax.
