Alliant Energy (LNT) to Report Q3 Earnings: What's in Store?
Alliant Energy Corporation (LNT - Free Report) is slated to release third-quarter 2020 financial results on Nov 2.
Let’s discuss the factors that are likely to get reflected in the company’s upcoming quarterly results.
Factors to Consider
With the easing of coronavirus-led restrictions, demand from commercial and industrial customers is expected to have improved but is yet to reach the pre-pandemic level. Overall broad diversity of customers across its two state jurisdictions is likely to have had a positive impact on earnings in the third quarter.
Moreover, increasing rate base, strong demand from residential class and cost-reduction efforts are likely to positively impact third-quarter results.
