Alliant Energy stock (ISIN US0188021085) was last at USD 64.33 on Nasdaq on October 2, 2026, up 0.97 percent from the prior close. The move came as the utility remained near its 52-week low, while its latest quarterly figures and analyst targets offered investors two very different signals.
Quarterly revenue reached USD 971 million
Alliant Energy reported second-quarter 2026 revenue of USD 971.0 million and EPS of USD 0.65, according to MarketBeat in a report dated September 22, 2026. Revenue increased 1.0 percent from the same quarter a year earlier, while the prior-year EPS comparison was USD 0.68.
The quarter also delivered a quantified earnings comparison: EPS exceeded the USD 0.58 consensus by USD 0.07, while revenue surpassed the USD 896.94 million estimate by USD 74.06 million, based on MarketBeat. The company set 2026 EPS guidance at USD 3.36-3.46, giving the market a defined earnings framework after the June 30 quarter.
Analysts see value above USD 77
MarketBeat reported a Moderate Buy consensus from 14 research firms on September 22, 2026. Nine analysts rated the stock Buy and five rated it Hold, with an average 12-month price target of USD 77.00.
That target lies 19.7 percent above the USD 64.33 reference price. The valuation gap contrasts with the recent target reductions cited by Investing.com on October 1, 2026: Jefferies cut its target to USD 80 while retaining Buy, BMO Capital set USD 78 with Outperform, and Mizuho reduced its target to USD 75 with Neutral.
Stock remains 18.4 percent below high
Alliant Energy's October 2 trading range was USD 63.79 to USD 65.20, with volume of 5,260,143 shares. The USD 64.33 price stood 18.4 percent below the 52-week high of USD 78.81 and USD 1.79 above the 52-week low of USD 62.54.
Market capitalization stood at USD 16.6 billion as of October 2, 2026. The combination of a near-yearly-low share price, positive quarterly revenue growth and a USD 3.36-3.46 full-year EPS framework leaves earnings delivery and utility investment returns as the key points for the next update.
