Read MoreHide Full Article
Alliant Energy (LNT - Free Report) is scheduled to release second-quarter 2023 earnings on Aug 3, after market close. This firm’s earnings surprise was a negative 10.96% in the last reported quarter.
Let’s see how things have shaped up before the upcoming earnings announcement.
Factors to Note
Alliant Energy’s second-quarter earnings are likely to have benefited from returns from planned investment and a reduction in operation and maintenance costs. Also, the company’s earnings are likely to have gained from stable economic conditions, which boosted demand.
However, higher interest and depreciation costs might have offset some positives in the to-be-reported quarter.
Expectations
The Zacks Consensus Estimate for second-quarter earnings per share is pegged at 59 cents. The bottom-line figure indicates a decrease of 6.4% from the year-ago quarter.
