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, deferred expenditures, deferred tax assets, tax expense, capital expenditures, and remaining costs related to EGUs that may be permanently closed and certain other retired assets, decreases in sales volumes, earning their authorized rates of return, and the payments to their parent of expected levels of dividends;

• federal and state regulatory or governmental actions, including the impact of legislation, and regulatory agency orders;

• the direct or indirect effects resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic on sales volumes, margins, operations, employees, contractors, vendors, the ability to complete construction projects, supply chains, customers’ inability to pay bills, suspension of disconnects and waiving of late fees applied to past due accounts, the market value of the assets that fund pension plans and the potential for additional funding requirements, the ability of counterparties to meet their obligations, compliance with regulatory requirements, the ability to implement regulatory plans, economic conditions and access to capital markets;

• 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;

• the impact of energy efficiency, franchise retention and customer disconnects on sales volumes and margins;

• the impact that price changes may have on IPL’s and WPL’s customers’ demand for electric, gas and steam services and their ability to pay their bills;

• the ability to utilize tax credits and net operating losses generated to date, and those that may be generated in the future, before they expire;

• the direct or indirect effects resulting from terrorist incidents, including physical attacks and cyber attacks, or responses to such incidents;

• the impact of penalties or third-party claims related to, or in connection with, a failure to maintain the security of personally identifiable information, including associated costs to notify affected persons and to mitigate their information security concerns;

• any material post-closing payments related to any past asset divestitures, including the sale of Whiting Petroleum, which could result from, among other things, indemnification agreements, warranties, guarantees or litigation;

1

• employee workforce factors, including changes in key executives, ability to hire and retain employees with specialized skills, ability to create desired corporate culture, collective bargaining agreements and negotiations, work stoppages or restructurings;

• weather effects on results of utility operations;

• issues associated with environmental remediation and environmental compliance, including compliance with all environmental and emissions permits, the Coal Combustion Residuals Rule, future changes in environmental laws and regulations, including federal, state or local regulations for carbon dioxide emissions reductions from new and existing fossil-fueled EGUs, and litigation associated with environmental requirements;

• increased pressure from customers, investors and other stakeholders to more rapidly reduce carbon dioxide emissions;

• the ability to defend against environmental claims brought by state and federal agencies, such as the EPA, state natural resources agencies or third parties, such as the Sierra Club, and the impact on operating expenses of defending and resolving such claims;

• continued access to the capital markets on competitive terms and rates, and the actions of credit rating agencies;

• inflation and interest rates;

• the ability to complete construction of wind and solar projects within the cost caps set by regulators and to meet all requirements to qualify for the full level of production tax credits and investment tax credits, respectively;

• changes in the price of delivered natural gas, purchased electricity and coal due to shifts in supply and demand caused by market conditions and regulations;

• disruptions in the supply and delivery of natural gas, purchased electricity and coal;

• the direct or indirect effects resulting from breakdown or failure of equipment in the operation of electric and gas distribution systems, such as mechanical problems and explosions or fires, and compliance with electric and gas transmission and distribution safety regulations, including regulations promulgated by the Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration;

• issues related to the availability and operations of EGUs, including start-up risks, breakdown or failure of equipment, 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 costs through rates;

• impacts that excessive heat, storms or natural disasters 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;

• 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, life expectancies and demographics;

• material changes in employee-related benefit and compensation costs;

• risks associated with operation and ownership of non-utility holdings;

• changes in technology that alter the channels through which customers buy or utilize Alliant Energy’s, IPL’s or WPL’s products and services;

• impacts on equity income from unconsolidated investments from valuations and potential changes to ATC’s authorized return on equity;

• impacts of IPL’s future tax benefits from Iowa rate-making practices, including deductions for repairs expenditures, allocation of mixed service costs and state depreciation, and recoverability of the associated regulatory assets from customers, when the differences reverse in future periods;

• the impacts of changes in tax rates, including adjustments made to deferred tax assets and liabilities;

• changes to the creditworthiness of counterparties with which Alliant Energy, IPL and WPL have contractual arrangements, including participants in the energy markets and fuel suppliers and transporters;

• current or future litigation, regulatory investigations, proceedings or inquiries;

• reputational damage from negative publicity, protests, fines, penalties and other negative consequences resulting in regulatory and/or legal actions;

• the effect of accounting standards issued periodically by standard-setting bodies;

• the ability to successfully complete tax audits and changes in tax accounting methods with no material impact on earnings and cash flows; and

• other factors listed in MDA and Item 1A Risk Factors, as well as Risk Factors in Item 1A in the 2019 Form 10-K.

Alliant Energy, IPL and WPL each assume no obligation, and disclaim any duty, to update the forward-looking statements in this report, except as required by law.

COMBINED NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

NOTE 1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

NOTE 1(a) General - The interim unaudited Financial Statements included herein have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Accordingly, certain information and note disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted, although management believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. These Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and the notes thereto included in the latest combined Annual Report on Form 10-K.

In the opinion of management, all adjustments, which unless otherwise noted are normal and recurring in nature, necessary for a fair presentation of the results of operations, financial position and cash flows have been made. Results for the six months ended June 30, 2020 are not necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2020.

In March 2020, COVID-19 was declared a global pandemic, which has resulted in widespread travel restrictions and closures of commercial spaces and industrial facilities in Alliant Energy’s service territories. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, Alliant Energy, IPL and WPL considered the impact of COVID-19 on their overall business operations, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows, along with assumptions and estimates used. While the total expected impact of COVID-19 on future sales is currently unknown, Alliant Energy, IPL and WPL have experienced higher electric residential sales and lower electric commercial and industrial sales since the outset of the pandemic. The degree to which the COVID-19 pandemic may impact Alliant Energy, IPL and WPL in the future is currently unknown and will depend on future developments of the pandemic as well as possible additional actions by government and regulatory authorities.

A change in management’s estimates or assumptions could have a material impact on financial condition and results of operations during the period in which such change occurred. Certain prior period amounts in the Financial Statements and Notes have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation for comparative purposes.

NOTE 1(b) Cash and Cash Equivalents - At June 30, 2020, Alliant Energy’s and IPL’s cash and cash equivalents included $198.3 million and $198.3 million of money market fund investments, with weighted average interest rates of 0.1% and 0.1%, respectively.

NOTE 1(c) Current Expected Credit Losses Estimates - Current expected credit losses are estimated for trade and other receivables and credit exposures on guarantees of the performance by third parties. The current expected credit losses for short-term trade receivables are based on estimates of losses resulting from the inability of customers to make required payments. The methodology used to estimate losses is based on historical write-offs, regional economic conditions, significant events that could impact collectability, such as impacts related to COVID-19 and related regulatory actions, and forecasted changes to the accounts receivable aging portfolio and write-offs. The current expected credit losses related to guarantees of the performance by third parties are estimated using both quantitative and qualitative information, which utilizes potential outcomes in a range of possible estimated amounts.

NOTE 1(d) New Accounting Standards -

Credit Losses - In June 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued an accounting standard requiring use of a current expected credit loss model rather than an incurred loss method, which is intended to result in more timely recognition of credit losses on trade receivables, certain other assets and off-balance sheet credit exposures. Alliant Energy, IPL and WPL adopted this standard on January 1, 2020 using a modified retrospective method of adoption, which required cumulative effect adjustments to retained earnings on January 1, 2020. IPL and WPL did not record a cumulative effect adjustment to retained earnings and Alliant Energy recorded a pre-tax $12 million (after-tax $8.7 million) cumulative effect adjustment to decrease retained earnings related to Alliant Energy’s guarantees in the partnership obligations of an affiliate of Whiting Petroleum (refer to Note 13(c) for further discussion). This adjustment is included in “Adoption of new accounting standard” in Alliant Energy’s summary of changes in shareowners’ equity in Note 5 for the six months ended June 30, 2020.

		$1,371.0		$1,423.6		$717.9		$714.7		$653.1		$708.9

Tax-related - Alliant Energy’s, IPL’s and WPL’s tax-related regulatory liabilities are primarily related to excess deferred tax benefits resulting from the remeasurement of accumulated deferred income taxes caused by Federal Tax Reform. During the six months ended June 30, 2020, Alliant Energy’s, IPL’s and WPL’s tax-related regulatory liabilities decreased primarily from returning a portion of these excess deferred tax benefits back to customers.

Electric transmission cost recovery - In the second quarter of 2020, pursuant to a June 2020 IUB order, IPL issued $42 million of credits to its retail electric customers through its transmission cost rider for amounts previously collected in rates, which resulted in a corresponding reduction to “Electric transmission service” expense in Alliant Energy’s and IPL’s income statements for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020.

Refer to Note 13(f) for discussion of refunds received by IPL and WPL in the second quarter of 2020 related to MISO transmission owner return on equity complaints.

NOTE 6(b) Long-term Debt - In March 2020, AEF entered into a $300 million variable rate (1% as of June 30, 2020) term loan credit agreement (with Alliant Energy as guarantor) and used the borrowings under this agreement to retire its $300 million variable rate term loan credit agreement that would have expired in April 2020. AEF’s current term loan credit agreement expires in March 2022 and includes substantially the same financial covenants that are included in Alliant Energy’s credit facility agreement.

In April 2020, WPL issued $350 million of 3.65% debentures due 2050. The net proceeds from the issuance were used by WPL to reduce borrowings under the single credit facility and for general corporate purposes. In June 2020, WPL retired its $150 million 4.6% debentures.

In June 2020, IPL issued $400 million of 2.3% senior debentures due 2030. The net proceeds from the issuance were used by IPL to retire its $200 million 3.65% senior debentures that would have matured in September 2020 and for general corporate purposes.

NOTE 8. 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 decreases in overall effective income tax rates for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 compared to the same periods in 2019 were primarily due to increases in production tax credits as a result of increased wind production in 2020 and increased amortization of excess deferred taxes primarily at WPL, which were used to offset increases in WPL’s 2020 increased revenue requirements.

NOTE 9(b) Equity-based Compensation Plans - A summary of compensation expense, including amounts allocated to IPL and WPL, and the related income tax benefits recognized for share-based compensation awards for the three and six months ended June 30 was as follows (in millions):

19

	Alliant Energy								IPL								WPL
	Three Months				Six Months				Three Months				Six Months				Three Months				Six Months
	2020		2019		2020		2019		2020		2019		2020		2019		2020		2019		2020		2019
Compensation expense		$2.7		$3.4		$5.4		$8.1		$1.5		$1.9		$2.9		$4.5		$1.2		$1.4		$2.3		$3.2
Income tax benefits	0.8		1.0		1.5		2.3		0.4		0.5		0.8		1.3		0.3		0.4		0.6		0.9

As of June 30, 2020, Alliant Energy’s, IPL’s and WPL’s total unrecognized compensation cost related to share-based compensation awards was $9.9 million, $5.5 million and $4.1 million, respectively, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of between 1 year and 2 years.

For the six months ended June 30, 2020, performance shares, performance restricted stock units and restricted stock units were granted to key employees as follows. These shares and units will be paid out in shares of common stock, and are therefore accounted for as equity awards. As of June 30, 2020, 228,207 shares were included in the calculation of diluted EPS related to the nonvested equity awards.

		Weighted Average
	Grants	Grant Date Fair Value
Performance shares	55,303		$64.04
Performance restricted stock units	55,303	59.47
Restricted stock units	60,284	59.49

NOTE 10. ASSET RETIREMENT OBLIGATIONS

A reconciliation of the changes in asset retirement obligations associated with long-lived assets for the six months ended June 30, 2020 is as follows (in millions):

	Alliant Energy			IPL
Balance, January 1		$196.3			$133.9
Revisions in estimated cash flows	0.9			—
Liabilities settled	(3.5		)	(2.8		)
Liabilities incurred (a)	27.6			27.6
Accretion expense	3.5			2.5
Balance, June 30		$224.8			$161.2

(a) During the six months ended June 30, 2020, Alliant Energy and IPL recognized additional asset retirement obligations related to IPL’s newly constructed Whispering Willow North and Golden Plains wind sites. The increases in asset retirement obligations resulted in corresponding increases in property, plant and equipment, net on the respective balance sheets.

NOTE 11. DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS

Commodity Derivatives -

Notional Amounts - As of June 30, 2020, gross notional amounts and settlement/delivery years related to outstanding swap contracts, option contracts, physical forward contracts and FTRs that were accounted for as commodity derivative instruments were as follows (units in thousands):

	FTRs		Natural Gas		Coal		Diesel Fuel
	MWhs	Years	Dths	Years	Tons	Years	Gallons	Years
Alliant Energy	21,455	2020-2021	234,304	2020-2028	4,482	2020-2021	6,804	2020-2022
IPL	8,978	2020-2021	123,308	2020-2028	1,834	2020-2021	—	—
WPL	12,477	2020-2021	110,996	2020-2027	2,648	2020-2021	6,804	2020-2022

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
	June 30, 2020		December 31, 2019		June 30, 2020		December 31, 2019		June 30, 2020		December 31, 2019
Current derivative assets		$27.9		$15.8		$22.5		$12.1		$5.4		$3.7
Non-current derivative assets	14.5		11.0		14.5		10.2		—		0.8
Current derivative liabilities	20.0		19.0		8.5		8.9		11.5		10.1
Non-current derivative liabilities	26.2		18.6		11.8		8.5		14.4		10.1

20

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 June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, 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 June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019. 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 12. 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 13. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

NOTE 13(a) Capital Purchase Commitments - Various contractual obligations contain minimum future commitments related to capital expenditures for certain construction projects. IPL’s projects include the expansion of wind generation. WPL’s projects include the expansion of wind and solar generation. At June 30, 2020, Alliant Energy’s, IPL’s and WPL’s minimum future commitments for these projects were $60 million, $8 million and $52 million, respectively.

NOTE 13(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 June 30, 2020, the related minimum future commitments were as follows (in millions):

	Alliant Energy		IPL		WPL
Purchased power (a)		$39		$38		$1
Natural gas	1,017		536		481
Coal (b)	101		62		39
Other (c)	113		54		28
		$1,270		$690		$549

(a) Includes payments required by PPAs for capacity rights and minimum quantities of MWhs required to be purchased. As a result of an amendment to shorten the term of the DAEC PPA, Alliant Energy’s and IPL’s amounts include minimum future commitments related to IPL’s purchase of capacity and the resulting energy from DAEC through September 2020, and do not include the September 2020 buyout payment of $110 million.

(b) Corporate Services has historically entered into system-wide coal contracts on behalf of IPL and WPL that include minimum future commitments. Such commitments were assigned to IPL and WPL based on information available as of June 30, 2020 regarding expected future usage, which is subject to change.

(c) Includes individual commitments incurred during the normal course of business that exceeded $1 million at June 30, 2020.

NOTE 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. 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 platforms off the coast of California and related onshore plant and equipment owned by the partnerships. The general partnerships were formed under California law, and Alliant Energy Resources, LLC’s guarantees, which do not include a maximum limit, apply to the Whiting Petroleum affiliate’s obligations and to the other partners. Alliant Energy Resources, LLC may be required to perform under the guarantees if the affiliate of Whiting Petroleum is unable to meet its partnership obligations.

As of June 30, 2020, the currently known partnership obligations are the abandonment obligations. The Whiting Petroleum affiliate’s share of these abandonment obligations on an undiscounted basis is estimated at $63 million as of June 30, 2020 based on information made available to Alliant Energy by Whiting Petroleum, and this represents Alliant Energy’s best estimate of the contingent obligations for potential future payments. 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, the new credit loss accounting standard adopted on January 1, 2020 requires recognition of a liability for expected credit losses related to the contingent obligations that are in the scope of these guarantees. With the adoption of this standard, Alliant Energy recorded a pre-tax $12 million cumulative effect adjustment to decrease the opening balance of retained earnings as of January 1, 2020. As a result of Whiting Petroleum’s deterioration in credit worthiness since January 1, 2020 likely from significantly depressed oil and gas prices and general market conditions, Alliant Energy currently expects credit exposure related to the guarantees and has recognized a $20 million credit loss liability as of June 30, 2020 related to the contingent obligations, which is recorded in

23

“Other liabilities” on Alliant Energy’s balance sheet. The incremental pre-tax change in the liability, $8 million, was recorded as a credit loss expense within Alliant Energy’s “Other operation and maintenance” expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2020. There was 0 incremental pre-tax change in the liability recorded for the three months ended June 30, 2020.

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 $82 million as of June 30, 2020 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 June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019.

IPL’s Minnesota Electric Distribution Assets - IPL provided indemnifications associated with the 2015 sale of its Minnesota electric distribution assets for losses resulting from potential breach of IPL’s representations, warranties and obligations under the sale agreement. Alliant Energy and IPL believe the likelihood of having to make any material cash payments under these indemnifications is remote. IPL has not recorded any material liabilities related to these indemnifications as of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019. The general terms of the indemnifications provided by IPL included a maximum limit of $17 million and expire in October 2020.

NOTE 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 June 30, 2020, 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 June 30, 2020, such amounts for WPL were not material.

	Alliant Energy				IPL
Range of estimated future costs		$12	-	$29		$10	-	$24
Current and non-current environmental liabilities	16				13

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 Burlington by December 31, 2021 and 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 to comply with certain of these rules could be significant. Specific current, proposed or potential environmental matters include, among others: 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 13(e) Collective Bargaining Agreements - At June 30, 2020, employees covered by collective bargaining agreements represented 53%, 60% and 82% of total employees of Alliant Energy, IPL and WPL, respectively. On August 31, 2020, IPL’s collective bargaining agreement with International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers Local 204 (Cedar Rapids) expires, representing 18% and 44% of total employees of Alliant Energy and IPL, respectively. While the process to renew the agreement is underway and a tentative agreement has been reached, Alliant Energy and IPL are unable to predict the outcome.

24

NOTE 13(f) MISO Transmission Owner Return on Equity Complaints - A group of MISO cooperative and municipal utilities previously filed complaints with FERC requesting a reduction to the base return on equity used by MISO transmission owners, including ITC Midwest LLC and ATC. The first complaint covered the period from November 12, 2013 through February 11, 2015. In 2017, IPL and WPL received refunds related to the first complaint period, which were subsequently refunded to their retail and wholesale customers. The second complaint covered the period from February 12, 2015 through May 11, 2016. In November 2019, FERC issued an order on the previously filed complaints and reduced the base return on equity used by the MISO transmission owners to 9.88% effective for the first complaint period and subsequent to September 28, 2016. The November 2019 FERC order also dismissed the second complaint; therefore, FERC did not direct refunds to be made for that complaint. In May 2020, FERC issued an order in response to various rehearing requests and increased the base return on equity used by the MISO transmission owners from 9.88% to 10.02% for the first complaint period and subsequent to September 28, 2016, which reduces the refunds originally anticipated to be received by IPL and WPL as a result of FERC’s November 2019 order.

In the second quarter of 2020, IPL and WPL received $10 million and $3 million, respectively, in refunds related to the November 2019 FERC order. Additional refunds are currently expected to be issued; however, as a result of the May 2020 FERC order, timing is uncertain. IPL currently expects that all refunds will be returned to its retail electric customers after refund amounts and timing are known and a refund plan is approved by the IUB. WPL proposed to retain the refunds as part of WPL’s application with the PSCW to maintain its current retail electric base rates through the end of 2021. WPL currently expects that any refunds not utilized to maintain base rates would be returned to its customers in WPL’s next retail electric rate review proceeding. Any further changes in FERC’s decisions may have an impact on Alliant Energy’s share of ATC’s future earnings and customer costs.

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 2019 Form 10-K. Unless otherwise noted, all “per share” references in MDA refer to earnings per diluted share.

2020 HIGHLIGHTS

Key highlights since the filing of the 2019 Form 10-K include the following:

COVID-19:

The outbreak of COVID-19 has become a global pandemic and Alliant Energy’s service territories are not immune to the challenges presented by COVID-19. Despite these challenges, Alliant Energy, IPL and WPL continue to focus on providing the critical, reliable service their customers depend on, while emphasizing the health and welfare of their employees, customers and communities. Alliant Energy, IPL and WPL have not experienced significant impacts on their overall business operations, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020; however, the degree to which the COVID-19 pandemic may impact such items in the future is currently unknown and will depend on future developments of the pandemic as well as possible additional actions by government and regulatory authorities. Alliant Energy has mitigated the impact of sales declines from COVID-19 by accelerating planned cost transformation activities. Actual and potential impacts from COVID-19 include, but are not limited to, the following:

Operational and Supply Chain Impacts - Alliant Energy has modified certain business practices to help ensure the health and safety of its employees, contractors, customers and vendors consistent with orders and best practices issued by government and regulatory authorities. For example, Alliant Energy implemented its business continuity and pandemic plans for critical items and services, including travel restrictions, physical distancing, working-from-home protocols, and rescheduling of planned EGU outages. Alliant Energy also temporarily suspended service disconnects, waived late payment fees for its customers, and modified reconnect service procedures to ensure continuity of service for customers unable to pay their bills and consistency with regulatory orders.

While Alliant Energy has not experienced any significant issues to-date, it continues to monitor potential disruptions or constraints in materials and supplies from key suppliers. In addition, Alliant Energy’s construction projects are currently progressing as planned with added safety protocols, and while it continues to monitor its supply chain, there have been no immediate disruptions. Currently, Alliant Energy expects its large renewable construction projects to be placed in service as previously planned to meet the timing requirements to qualify for the maximum renewable tax credits. In addition, Alliant Energy does not currently expect any material changes to its construction and acquisition expenditures plans disclosed in the 2019 Form 10-K resulting from COVID-19.

Alliant Energy has not experienced, and currently does not expect, an interruption in its ability to provide electric and natural gas services to its customers. Alliant Energy currently expects to incur incremental direct expenses related to certain of these operational changes and does expect them to have a material impact on its results of operations.

Customer Impacts - COVID-19 has resulted in various travel restrictions and closures of commercial spaces and industrial facilities in Alliant Energy’s service territories. While the total expected impact of COVID-19 on future sales is currently unknown, Alliant Energy has experienced higher electric residential sales and lower electric commercial and industrial sales since the outset of the pandemic, and this has continued through July 2020. For the second quarter of 2020 compared to the second quarter of 2019, Alliant Energy’s retail electric residential temperature-normalized sales increased 5%, and its retail electric commercial and industrial temperature-normalized sales decreased 9% in aggregate. While sales to retail electric

27

commercial and industrial customers started to rebound in June 2020 and July 2020, given the continued uncertainty of COVID-19 impacts on sales, Alliant Energy currently expects a slight reduction in temperature-normalized retail sales in 2020 compared to 2019. From a sensitivity perspective, Alliant Energy currently estimates that an annual 1% increase/decrease in sales for each customer type would result in corresponding annual impacts of $0.02 EPS for its retail electric residential customers, $0.01 EPS for its retail electric commercial customers and $0.01 EPS for its retail electric industrial customers.

Liquidity and Capital Resources Impacts - In response to the uncertainty of the impacts of COVID-19, Alliant Energy enhanced its liquidity position in the first quarter of 2020 by settling $222 million under the equity forward sale agreements and AEF accelerating the refinancing of its $300 million term-loan credit agreement that would have been due in April 2020. In March 2020 and April 2020, Alliant Energy and WPL borrowed under the single credit facility for a portion of their cash needs to obtain more favorable interest rates than available in the commercial paper market. This single credit facility also allows borrowing capacity to shift among Alliant Energy (at the parent company level), IPL and WPL as needed. In April 2020, WPL issued $350 million of debentures due 2050, and in June 2020, IPL issued $400 million of senior debentures due 2030. In June 2020, IPL and WPL retired $200 million and $150 million of long-term debt, respectively, and there are no other material long-term debt maturities in 2020 and 2021. In addition, IPL maintains a sales of accounts receivable program as an alternative financing source; however, if customer arrears were to exceed certain levels, IPL’s access to the program may be restricted.

Alliant Energy, IPL and WPL currently expect to maintain compliance with the financial covenants of the credit facility agreement, and Alliant Energy currently expects to maintain compliance with the financial covenants in AEF’s term loan credit agreement. In addition, Alliant Energy currently expects to have adequate liquidity to fulfill its contractual obligations, access to capital markets and continue with its planned quarterly dividend payments.

Credit Risk Impacts - Alliant Energy’s temporary suspension of service disconnects and waivers of late payment fees for its customers, as well as broad economic factors, may negatively impact its customers’ abilities to pay, which could increase customer arrears and bad debts, and negatively impact Alliant Energy’s cash flows from operations. Currently, Alliant Energy does not anticipate any material credit risk related to its commodity transactions. In addition, Alliant Energy recorded an $8 million credit loss charge in the first quarter of 2020 related to legacy guarantees associated with an affiliate of Whiting Petroleum, partly as a result of the increasing concerns and impacts from the pandemic on the depressed oil and gas prices.

Regulatory Impacts - In March 2020, WPL received authorization from the PSCW to defer certain incremental costs incurred resulting from COVID-19, including bad debt expenses and foregone revenues from late payment fees and deposits. In June 2020, IPL filed a proposal with the IUB for utilization of a regulatory asset account to track increased expenses and other financial impacts incurred after March 1, 2020 resulting from COVID-19. The recovery of any authorized deferrals will be addressed in future regulatory proceedings. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, such recorded amounts were not material.

Legislative Impacts - In March 2020, the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (CARES Act) was enacted. The most significant provision of the CARES Act for Alliant Energy relates to an acceleration of refunds of existing alternative minimum tax credits to improve liquidity. In July 2020, Alliant Energy received $11 million of credits that otherwise would have been received in 2021 and 2022. Other provisions of the CARES Act that Alliant Energy is currently evaluating include deferral of 2020 remaining pension contributions and payroll taxes to 2021 and 2022. In addition, the CARES Act provides additional funding to the Low Income Home Energy Assistance Program, which assists certain of Alliant Energy’s customers with managing their energy costs. The CARES Act also provides financial support for certain of Alliant Energy’s small business customers.

Rate Matters:

• Final retail electric rates for IPL’s 2020 Forward-looking Test Period rate review were effective February 26, 2020. Effective with the implementation of final rates, IPL started to recover a return of and return on its new wind generation placed in service in 2019 and 2020 through the renewable energy rider.

• In May 2020, WPL filed an application with the PSCW to maintain its current retail electric and gas base rates, authorized return on common equity, regulatory capital structure and earnings sharing mechanism through the end of 2021. WPL’s proposal utilizes anticipated fuel-related cost savings in 2021 to offset the revenue requirement impacts of the Kossuth wind farm expected to be placed in service in late 2020. In addition, WPL’s proposal utilizes excess deferred tax benefits to partially offset the revenue requirement of the expansion of its gas distribution system in Western Wisconsin also expected to be placed in service in late 2020. WPL’s proposal also seeks additional flexibility to mitigate certain cost impacts outside of its control due to the COVID-19 pandemic if circumstances warrant.

• In the second quarter of 2020, pursuant to a June 2020 IUB order, IPL issued $42 million of credits to its retail electric customers through its transmission cost rider for amounts previously collected in rates.

• In July 2020, the PSCW issued a decision directing WPL to refund $12 million of 2019 fuel-related cost over-collections to its retail electric customers in September 2020.

Customer Investments:

• In March 2020, IPL completed the construction of the Golden Plains wind farm in Iowa (200 MW).

• In April 2020, WPL received authorization from the PSCW to expand its gas distribution system in Western Wisconsin, which is currently expected to be completed in 2020.

• In May 2020, WPL completed the construction of the natural gas-fired West Riverside Energy Center (730 MW).

• In May 2020, WPL filed a Certificate of Authority with the PSCW for approval to acquire, construct, own, and operate up to 675 MW of new solar generation, which is expected to qualify for 30% investment tax credits, in the following Wisconsin counties: Grant (200 MW in 2023), Sheboygan (150 MW in 2022), Wood (150 MW in 2022), Jefferson (75 MW in 2022), Richland (50 MW in 2022) and Rock (50 MW in 2023). WPL proposes to own and operate the solar projects through a tax equity partnership, with approximately 35% to 45% of the construction costs financed with capital from the tax equity partner, allowing WPL’s customers to share the costs of the solar projects with an investment partner for 10 years or less, while ensuring its customers receive energy, capacity, and renewable energy credit benefits from the projects. WPL would expect to purchase the tax equity partner’s interest in the solar projects within 10 years of operation, and then convert to a traditional ownership structure for the remainder of the useful life of the projects. WPL’s estimated portion of capital expenditures for the 675 MW of new solar generation, excluding allowance for funds used during construction, is currently expected to be approximately $885 million in aggregate ($25 million, $410 million, $370 million and $80 million in 2020 through 2023, respectively). Assuming 35% of the construction costs are financed by the tax equity partner, WPL would receive approximately $190 million and $110 million from the tax equity partner in 2022 and 2023, respectively. WPL requested to include $585 million in rate base, which reflects its portion of capital expenditures, less the amounts financed by the tax equity partner. The 675 MW of new solar generation would replace energy and capacity being eliminated with the planned retirement of the coal-fired Edgewater Generating Station (414 MW) by the end of 2022, which is subject to change depending on operational, regulatory, market and other factors.

• In July 2020, Alliant Energy announced it achieved its goal that 30% of its overall energy mix be from renewable resources and establishment of updated voluntary environmental-related goals based on its clean energy strategy. By 2030, Alliant Energy expects to reduce carbon dioxide emissions by 50% and water supply by 75% from 2005 levels from its owned fossil-fueled generation. By 2040, Alliant Energy expects to eliminate all coal-fired EGUs from its generating fleet, and by 2050, seeks to achieve an aspirational goal of net-zero carbon dioxide emissions from the electricity it generates. Future updates to sustainable energy plans and attaining these goals will depend on future economic developments, evolving energy technologies and emerging trends in Alliant Energy’s service territories.

Financings:

• In March 2020, Alliant Energy settled $222 million under the equity forward sale agreements by delivering 4,275,127 shares of newly issued Alliant Energy common stock at a weighted average forward sale price of $51.98 per share.

• In March 2020, AEF entered into a $300 million variable rate (1% as of June 30, 2020) term loan credit agreement (with Alliant Energy as guarantor), which expires in March 2022, and used the borrowings under this agreement to retire its $300 million variable rate term loan credit agreement that would have expired in April 2020.

• In April 2020, WPL issued $350 million of 3.65% debentures due 2050. The net proceeds from the issuance were used by WPL to reduce borrowings under the single credit facility, which currently expires in August 2023, and for general corporate purposes. In June 2020, WPL retired its $150 million 4.6% debentures.

• In June 2020, IPL issued $400 million of 2.3% senior debentures due 2030. The net proceeds from the issuance were used by IPL to retire its $200 million 3.65% senior debentures that would have matured in September 2020 and for general corporate purposes.

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 June 30 were as follows (dollars in millions, except per share amounts):

	2020				2019
	Income		EPS		Income (Loss)			EPS
Utilities and Corporate Services		$120.8		$0.48		$90.1			$0.38
ATC Holdings	10.2		0.04		7.5			0.03
Non-utility and Parent	3.4		0.02		(3.0		)	(0.01		)
Alliant Energy Consolidated		$134.4		$0.54		$94.6			$0.40

Alliant Energy’s Utilities and Corporate Services net income increased by $31 million for the three-month period, primarily due to higher earnings resulting from IPL’s and WPL’s increasing rate base, as well as favorable temperature impacts on electric sales for the quarter. These items were partially offset by higher depreciation expense and timing of income taxes.

Alliant Energy’s Non-utility and Parent net income increased by $6 million for the three-month period primarily due to the timing of income taxes.

For the three and six months ended June 30, operating income and a reconciliation of utility electric and gas margins to the most directly comparable GAAP measure, operating income, was as follows (in millions):

Sales Trends and Temperatures - Alliant Energy’s retail electric sales volumes decreased 4% for the three months ended June 30, 2020 compared to the same period in 2019 primarily due to the impacts from COVID-19, partially offset by favorable temperature impacts during the second quarter of 2020 in Alliant Energy’s service territories. Alliant Energy’s retail gas sales volumes remained unchanged for the three months ended June 30, 2020 compared to the same period in 2019 primarily due to favorable temperature impacts during the second quarter of 2020 in Alliant Energy’s service territories, offset by the impacts from COVID-19. Alliant Energy’s retail electric and gas sales volumes decreased 4% and 13% for the six months ended June 30, 2020 compared to the same period in 2019, respectively, primarily due to the impacts of COVID-19 and changes in temperatures in Alliant Energy’s service territories. The six-month decrease in sales was partially offset by an extra day of sales during the first quarter of 2020 due to leap year. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, COVID-19 impacts on sales volumes resulted in increases for retail electric residential sales volumes and decreases for retail electric commercial and industrial sales.

Estimated increases (decreases) to electric and gas margins from the impacts of temperatures for the three and six months ended June 30 were as follows (in millions):

	Electric Margins															Gas Margins
	Three Months							Six Months								Three Months						Six Months

(a) IPL’s interim retail electric base rate increase was effective April 1, 2019 and final retail electric base rate increase was effective February 26, 2020. Effective with final rates, the recovery of, and return on, IPL’s new wind generation placed in service in 2019 and 2020 is provided through the renewable energy rider. Both interim and final rate increases include a reduction for anticipated production tax credits for IPL’s new wind generation. This reduction is expected to be offset by a reduction in income tax expense resulting from production tax credits recognized from this new wind generation.

Utility Gas Margin Variances - The following items contributed to increased (decreased) utility gas margins for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 compared to the same periods in 2019 as follows (in millions):

Income Taxes - Alliant Energy’s overall effective income tax rates were (6.5)% and 10.3% for the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, and (9.6)% and 10.5% for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. The decrease in effective income tax rates is primarily due to increases in production tax credits as a result of increased wind production in 2020 and increases of amortization of excess deferred taxes primarily at WPL. WPL’s 2020 increased revenue requirements are offset by returning to customers a portion of the excess deferred income tax credits from Federal Tax Reform. Excess deferred income taxes and production tax credits are recognized based on an estimated annual effective tax rate, which contributed to a positive earnings variance in the first half of 2020. This positive earnings variance is expected to reverse in the second half of 2020.

OTHER MATTERS

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates - The summary of critical accounting policies and estimates included in the 2019 Form 10-K has not changed materially, except as described below.

Contingencies - Effective January 1, 2020 upon the adoption of the new accounting standard for credit losses, certain contingencies, such as Alliant Energy Resources, LLC’s guarantees of the partnership obligations of an affiliate of Whiting Petroleum, require estimation each reporting period of the expected credit losses on those contingencies. These estimates require significant judgment and would result in recognition of a credit loss liability sooner than the previous accounting standards, which required recognition when the contingency became probable and could be reasonably estimated based on then current available information. With respect to Alliant Energy’s guarantees of the partnership obligations of an affiliate of Whiting Petroleum, the most significant judgments in determining the credit loss liability were the estimate of the exposure under the guarantees and the methodology used for calculating the credit loss liability. As of June 30, 2020, Alliant Energy currently estimates the exposure to be the affiliate’s share of the known partnership abandonment obligations. The methodology used to determine the credit loss liability considers both quantitative and qualitative information, which utilizes potential outcomes in a range of possible estimated amounts. Factors considered include market and external data points, as well as the affiliate’s share of forecasted cash flow expenditures associated with the abandonment obligations based on information made available to Alliant Energy by Whiting Petroleum. Note 1(c) provides discussion of the adoption of the new accounting standard for credit losses. Note 13(c) provides further discussion of contingencies assessed at January 1, 2020 and June 30, 2020, including impacts to Alliant Energy Resources, LLC’s guarantees in the partnership obligations of an affiliate of Whiting Petroleum and to the other partners.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk are reported in the 2019 Form 10-K and have not changed materially.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Alliant Energy’s, IPL’s and WPL’s management evaluated, with the participation of each of Alliant Energy’s, IPL’s and WPL’s Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer and Disclosure Committee, the effectiveness of the design and operation of Alliant Energy’s, IPL’s and WPL’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) as of June 30, 2020 pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Based on their evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer concluded that Alliant Energy’s, IPL’s and WPL’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of the quarter ended June 30, 2020.

There was no change in Alliant Energy’s, IPL’s and WPL’s internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended June 30, 2020 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, Alliant Energy’s, IPL’s or WPL’s internal control over financial reporting. Alliant Energy, IPL and WPL have not experienced any material impact to their internal control over financial reporting due to the COVID-19 pandemic, and continue to monitor and assess the impact COVID-19 has on their internal controls.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

The risk factors described in Item 1A in the 2019 Form 10-K have not changed materially, except as described below.

The recent outbreak of the novel coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic could adversely affect our business functions, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows - The continued spread of the novel coronavirus (COVID-19) has resulted in widespread impacts on the economy and could lead to a prolonged reduction in economic activity, disruptions to supply chains and capital markets, and reduced labor availability and productivity. The COVID-19 pandemic has impacted and may continue to impact the economic conditions in our service territories, which may adversely impact our sales and our customers’ abilities to pay their bills. Travel and transportation restrictions and closures of commercial spaces and industrial facilities have been imposed in and across the U.S., including in the service territories in which we operate. Governmental and regulatory responses to COVID-19 include suspending service disconnects and waiving late fees, which may increase customer account arrears, possibly increasing our allowance for expected credit losses and decreasing our cash flows.

Although we expect an increase in residential sales due to these closures, our commercial and industrial sales may be significantly reduced. The negative impacts on the economy could adversely impact the market value of the assets that fund our pension plans, which could necessitate accelerated funding of the plans to meet minimum federal government requirements. The negative impacts on the economy could also adversely impact the ability of counterparties to meet contractual payment obligations, including guarantees, or deliver contracted commodities and other goods or services at the contracted price, which could increase company expenses. Our access to the capital markets could be adversely affected by COVID-19, which could cause us to need alternative sources of funding for our operations and for working capital, any of which could increase our cost of capital.

Travel bans and restrictions, quarantines, shelter in place orders and shutdowns may cause disruptions in supply chains or access to labor that may adversely impact our planned construction projects, our ability to satisfy compliance requirements, or our operations, including our ability to maintain reliable electric and gas service. This may cause us to miss milestones on construction projects and experience operational delays, which, in the case of renewable energy projects, could delay our completion of such projects past the in-service dates required to qualify for the maximum general production tax credits or investment tax credits for investments in such renewable energy projects. We have already modified certain business practices consistent with government restrictions and best practices encouraged by government and regulatory authorities and are developing and implementing risk mitigation plans for critical items and services required to continue our operations. The effects of these government restrictions could adversely impact implementation of our regulatory plans and our operations. If our workforce contracts COVID-19, it could negatively impact our operations, including our ability to maintain reliable electric and gas service.

The degree to which COVID-19 may impact our business operations, financial condition and results of operations is unknown at this time and will depend on future developments, including the ultimate geographic spread of COVID-19, the severity of the disease, the duration of the outbreak, possible resurgence of the disease at a later date, and further actions that may be taken by governmental and regulatory authorities.
