Summary
DTE Energy Co. (DTE) has filed an 8-K on June 8, 2018, to disclose information presented to investors during meetings scheduled from June 11-13, 2018. The primary focus of this filing is to reaffirm the company's previously issued 2018 operating earnings per share (EPS) guidance range of $5.57 to $5.99. Investors should note that this guidance pertains to operating earnings, and the company has indicated that certain items impacting reported earnings will likely be excluded from operating results. DTE Energy did not provide reconciliations for these potential exclusions due to the unpredictable nature of items such as non-recurring events, mark-to-market adjustments, and discontinued operations, which can significantly affect reported figures. The furnished slide presentation, available on DTE's website, provides the details of this guidance and other forward-looking statements.
