                          WISCONSIN ENERGY CORPORATION
                          NOTES TO UNAUDITED PRO FORMA
                    COMBINED CONDENSED FINANCIAL INFORMATION
                                 (In Thousands)

This unaudited pro forma financial information gives effect to the acquisition
of WICOR, Inc. by Wisconsin Energy Corporation on April 26, 2000, accounted for
as a purchase transaction under Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 16,
Business Combinations.  The pro forma information does not reflect anticipated
recurring savings arising from integrating the operations of the two companies
nor any costs to achieve such savings.

Wisconsin Energy's Unaudited Pro Forma Combined Condensed Financial Information
assumes that the WICOR acquisition occurred (1) as of January 1, 1999, for
purposes of the Unaudited Pro Forma Combined Condensed Income Statements and
(2) on March 31, 2000 for purposes of the Unaudited Pro Forma Combined Condensed
Balance Sheet.

a. Reclassification of amounts to conform the companies' historical
  presentation.

b. Based upon revised actuarial information, WICOR's annual pension income
  will decrease by $0.4 million and annual post retirement benefit expense will
  increase by an additional $0.2 million (Net increase in expense
  of $0.6 million per year or $0.2 million per quarter).

c. Amortization of goodwill over 40 years ($732.9 million/40 years = $18.3
  million per year or $4.6 million per quarter).

d. Additional depreciation and amortization resulting from the increased fair
  value of property, plant, and equipment and intangible assets acquired based
  upon various estimated useful lives ($6.6 million per year or $1.7 million per
  quarter).

e. Incremental interest expense based upon an assumed rate of 6.1%
  ($1.2 billion x 6.1% = $72.9 million per year or $18.2 million per quarter).
  A 1/8 percent change in the interest rate would increase or decrease annual
  interest expense by approximately $1.5 million.  Related debt issue of
  $2.7 million will be amortized over three years ($2.1 million for the first
  year and $0.3 million for the remaining two years).

  Wisconsin Energy initially funded the acquisition of WICOR through issuance
  of $1.2 billion of commercial paper with a weighted average effective
  interest rate of 6.1%.  Wisconsin Energy has arranged for two new bank back-up
  credit facilities to provide credit support for the issuance of Wisconsin
  Energy's commercial paper: a $1.0 billion 364-day bank back-up credit facility
  and a $500 million three-year bank back-up credit facility.

  Wisconsin Energy may refinance all or a portion of the $1.2 billion of short-
  term debt with medium or long-term debt.  Any refinancing of the short-term
  debt issued to acquire WICOR is not included in this pro forma financial
  information.

f. Reduction of income taxes relating to the foregoing adjustments.

g. Adjustments to WICOR's assets acquired and liabilities assumed to reflect
  fair value, purchase accounting adjustments and related tax effects.

  The preliminary purchase price allocation, including the excess of the
  purchase price over the fair value of net assets acquired at the date of
  acquisition, is as follows:

                                                                   ==========

  Some of the foregoing purchase price allocations, which are currently being
  finalized and may be revised at a later date, are based upon preliminary
  studies and valuations of the fair value of the acquired assets and assumed
  liabilities.  Management does not believe that the final purchase price
  allocations will produce materially different results than those reflected
  herein.

h. Purchase price was financed with 100% debt.  In addition, WICOR's equity-
  based compensation awards outstanding at the effective time of the merger were
  converted into 57,745 shares of restricted Wisconsin Energy common stock
  ($1.2 million), into options for up to 4,571,345 shares of Wisconsin Energy
  common stock ($35.9 million) with a weighted average exercise price of $13.70
  per share, and into deferred stock units payable in 105,520 shares of
  Wisconsin Energy common stock.  The purchase price also included $10.2 million
  of transaction costs.
