Research Alert: CFRA Maintains Hold Opinion On Shares Of Alliant Energy Corporation

CFRA, an independent research provider, has providedwith the following research alert. Analysts at CFRA have summarized their opinion as follows:We raise our 12-month target by $2 to $75, valuing LNT at 21.5x our next-12-month EPS view. We trim our 2026 EPS view by $0.03 to $3.42 and trim 2027 by $0.02 to $3.68. Rate base growth stemmed from investments in generation, energy storage, and transmission assets, along with higher allowance for funds used during construction. LNT signed an additional ~370 MW electric service agreement in Iowa, bringing total contracted data center demand to ~3.4 GW (up from 3 GW previously), with the potential to add another 2-4 GW depending on ongoing negotiations. LNT now has five fully executed data center agreements, with three projects under active construction. In our opinion, the strategic focus on capacity-only electric service agreements, supported by flexible generation (simple cycle natural gas and battery storage), aligns capital deployment with revenue growth while preserving optionality for future energy needs. We think EPS and dividend growth (2025-2028) is attractive at 7.6% and 6.1%, respectively.

Research Alert: Alliant Energy: Q1 Beat, Data Center Demand Reaches 3.4gw On New 370mw Deal

CFRA, an independent research provider, has providedwith the following research alert. Analysts at CFRA have summarized their opinion as follows:Alliant Energy posted Q1 2026 ongoing earnings of $0.82 per share, down from $0.83 last year but beating consensus expectations of $0.79. Total revenues advanced 5.0% to $1,184M, outpacing consensus by 7.0%, underpinned by higher utility revenues, though operating income fell 3.1% to $249M due to increased expenses. The company's capital investment program fueled rate base growth, with higher revenue requirements contributing $0.15 per share, supported by a significant 370 MW data center agreement in Iowa, bringing total contracted demand to 3.4 GW across five agreements. Management reaffirmed full-year 2026 EPS guidance of $3.36-$3.46 per share, maintaining its 6%+ compound annual earnings growth trajectory. The expanding data center pipeline positions Alliant for substantial long-term load growth, though execution risks remain around transmission capacity buildout and capital deployment that will be critical for translating demand into regulated rate base investments while maintaining customer affordability.
