This presentation, available on DTE's website, will discuss the company's 2023 operating earnings guidance. Investors should note that the company will exclude certain items impacting reported results from its operating earnings guidance. These excluded items, such as non-recurring events, mark-to-market adjustments, and discontinued operations, can significantly affect reported earnings and are not reconciled due to forecasting unreliability.
