- The company increased its dividend for the 22nd consecutive year, delivering a total shareholder return of over 13% for 2025.

- Alliant Energy Corp completed 275 megawatts of energy storage investments and turbine upgrades, enhancing their infrastructure.
- The company signed a new electric service agreement for a relocated QTS data center project, maintaining their capital expenditure program and investment growth expectations.
- Higher operating and maintenance expenses, primarily related to planned generation maintenance activities and the addition of new generation resources, partially offset earnings improvements.
- Increased depreciation and financing expenses associated with expanding capital investments also offset a portion of the earnings improvement.
- The suspension of production at Travero's wind turbine blade recycling operations resulted in a $0.05 charge.
- A $0.03 charge was associated with the remeasurement of deferred tax assets due to updated state income tax apportionment assumptions.
