Below is every line exactly as Alliant Energy filed it, with what each one means in plain English.

Read it from the top down. It starts with everything customers paid (sales), takes away the cost of making what was sold, then the costs of running the company, then interest and tax. What is left at the bottom is profit (net income), the part that belongs to shareholders. It covers a stretch of time: a year, or a quarter.
