Summary
DTE Energy Company (DTE) filed an 8-K on November 8, 2019, to disclose information for upcoming investor meetings scheduled for November 10-12, 2019. The primary purpose of this filing is to furnish a slide presentation (Exhibit 99.1) and reaffirm the company's financial guidance. This provides investors with a forward-looking view of the company's performance expectations. Key to investors, DTE Energy reaffirmed its 2019 operating earnings guidance to be in the range of $6.06 to $6.40 per share. Furthermore, the company provided an early outlook for 2020 operating earnings, projecting a range of $6.47 to $6.75 per share.
