Gabelli analyst says, "We regard Alliant Energy as a high quality, low-risk utility holding given the company's strong financial condition, as evidenced by a 56% common equity ratio and above-average utility subsidiary credit ratings - we expect 2009 EPS results to be depressed given a weak Wisconsin service area economy, but expect 2010 results to significantly benefit from pending rate cases in Iowa and Wisconsin, where rate increases are expected in early 2010 - of note, LNT operates in the wind-rich Iowa, and is favorably positioned to add significant wind capacity to meet future renewable portfolio standards and reduce carbon emissions - we estimate earnings of $2.35 per share in 2009 and $2.75 in 2010."
