Safe Harbor Statement
Many factors impact forward-looking statements including, but not limited to, the following: impact of regulation by the EPA, the FERC, the
MPSC, the NRC, and for DTE Energy, the CFTC, as well as other applicable governmental proceedings and regulations, including any
associated impact on rate structures; the amount and timing of cost recovery allowed as a result of regulatory proceedings, related appeals, or
new legislation, including legislative amendments and retail access programs; economic conditions and population changes in our geographic
area resulting in changes in demand, customer conservation, and thefts of electricity and, for DTE Energy, natural gas; environmental issues,
laws, regulations, and the increasing costs of remediation and compliance, including actual and potential new federal and state requirements;
health, safety, financial, environmental, and regulatory risks associated with ownership and operation of nuclear facilities; changes in the cost
and availability of coal and other raw materials, purchased power, and natural gas; volatility in the short-term natural gas storage markets
impacting third-party storage revenues related to DTE Energy; impact of volatility of prices in the oil and gas markets on DTE Energy's gas
storage and pipelines operations; impact of volatility in prices in the international steel markets on DTE Energy's power and industrial projects
operations; volatility in commodity markets, deviations in weather, and related risks impacting the results of DTE Energy's energy trading
operations; changes in the financial condition of DTE Energy's significant customers and strategic partners; the potential for losses on
investments, including nuclear decommissioning and benefit plan assets and the related increases in future expense and contributions; access
to capital markets and the results of other financing efforts which can be affected by credit agency ratings; instability in capital markets which
could impact availability of short and long-term financing; the timing and extent of changes in interest rates; the level of borrowings; the potential
for increased costs or delays in completion of significant capital projects; changes in, and application of, federal, state, and local tax laws and
their interpretations, including the Internal Revenue Code, regulations, rulings, court proceedings, and audits; the effects of weather and other
natural phenomena on operations and sales to customers, and purchases from suppliers; unplanned outages; the cost of protecting assets
against, or damage due to, cyber crime and terrorism; employee relations and the impact of collective bargaining agreements; the risk of a major
safety incident at an electric distribution or generation facility and, for DTE Energy, a gas storage, transmission, or distribution facility; the
availability, cost, coverage, and terms of insurance and stability of insurance providers; cost reduction efforts and the maximization of plant and
distribution system performance; the effects of competition; changes in and application of accounting standards and financial reporting
regulations; changes in federal or state laws and their interpretation with respect to regulation, energy policy, and other business issues; contract
disputes, binding arbitration, litigation, and related appeals; implementation of new information systems; and the risks discussed in our public
filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. New factors emerge from time to time. We cannot predict what factors may arise or how
such factors may cause results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statement. Any forward-looking statements speak
only as of the date on which such statements are made. We undertake no obligation to update any forward-looking statement to reflect events or
circumstances after the date on which such statement is made or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events. This presentation should also
be read in conjunction with the Forward-Looking Statements section of the joint DTE Energy and DTE Electric 2016 Form 10-K and 2017 Form
10-Q (which section is incorporated by reference herein), and in conjunction with other SEC reports filed by DTE Energy and DTE Electric.

Reconciliation of Other Reported to Operating
Earnings
Use of Operating Earnings Information – DTE Energy management believes that operating earnings provide a more meaningful representation of the company’s earnings from ongoing
operations and uses operating earnings as the primary performance measurement for external communications with analysts and investors. Internally, DTE Energy uses operating
earnings to measure performance against budget and to report to the Board of Directors. Operating earnings are presented both with and without Energy Trading. The term “Growth
Segments” refers to DTE Energy without Energy Trading and represents the business segments that management expects to generate earnings growth going forward.

Use of Operating Earnings Information – Operating earnings exclude non-recurring items, certain mark-to-
market adjustments and discontinued operations. DTE Energy management believes that operating
earnings provide a more meaningful representation of the company’s earnings from ongoing operations
and uses operating earnings as the primary performance measurement for external communications with
analysts and investors. Internally, DTE Energy uses operating earnings to measure performance against
budget and to report to the Board of Directors.
In this presentation, DTE Energy provides guidance for future period operating earnings. It is likely that
certain items that impact the company’s future period reported results will be excluded from operating
results. A reconciliation to the comparable future period reported earnings is not provided because it is not
possible to provide a reliable forecast of specific line items (i.e. future non-recurring items, certain mark-to-
market adjustments and discontinued operations). These items may fluctuate significantly from period to
period and may have a significant impact on reported earnings.
