Summary

Summary of the 10-K/A filed February 7, 1994. Cited figures are marked; the original filing is the authoritative source.

This Form 10-K/A (Amendment No. 1) for fiscal year 1992 of WPL Holdings, Inc. (now Alliant Energy) adds financial statements and schedules for three employee benefit plans of its subsidiary, Wisconsin Power and Light Company: the Employee Stock Ownership Plan (ESOP), Employees' Retirement Savings Plan A (salaried employees), and Employees' Retirement Savings Plan B (hourly employees).

The amendment does not contain consolidated corporate financial statements or business discussion. The filing states that Arthur Andersen & Co. audited the plans and issued unqualified opinions dated April 23, 1993. The ESOP reported net assets available for benefits of $43,812,233a at December 31, 1992, up from $42,346,805 a year earlier.

Nearly all of its assets were 1,293,353 shares of WPL Holdings common stock, valued at $33.875b per share at year-end. Its 1992 increase came from dividend income of $2,367,641 and unrealized appreciation of $795,904, offset by distributions to terminated participants of $1,698,117. Plan A's net assets were $29,493,802 at year-end 1992 versus $24,232,063 in 1991, and Plan B's were $25,342,511 versus $21,100,103.

Plan A's total additions in 1992 were $5,727,351c and Plan B's were $5,275,051. For investors, the filing mainly shows the size of employee retirement savings tied to the company's stock.

WPL Holdings common stock was a significant holding in both Plan A ($7,370,389d) and Plan B ($5,510,478) at year-end 1992. The filing also notes that the shareowner purchase rights, with an exercise price of $60.00 per share, expire on February 22, 1999.
