DETROIT, April 28, 2022 – DTE Energy (NYSE:DTE) today reported first quarter 2022 earnings of $394 million, or $2.03 per diluted share, compared with $397 million, or $2.05 per diluted share in 2021.

Operating earnings for the first quarter 2022 were $448 million, or $2.31 per diluted share, compared with 2021 operating earnings of $389 million, or $2.00 per diluted share. Operating earnings exclude non-recurring items, certain mark-to-market adjustments and discontinued operations. Reconciliations of reported earnings to operating earnings are included at the end of this news release.

“We are off to a strong start in 2022,” said Jerry Norcia, DTE Energy president and CEO. “In addition to a good start on the financial front, I am proud of our ongoing commitment to environmental sustainability, our focus on employee engagement and safety, and the strong progress in serving our customers and our communities.”

Norcia noted the following accomplishments:

•Recognized as a Gallup Great Workplace for 10th consecutive year: DTE was recognized by Gallup for the 10th year in a row as a workplace with exceptionally high employee engagement – in the top decile of Gallup’s worldwide database of companies.

•Achieved nearly 500 business and more than 50,000 residential MIGreenPower subscribers: The program is one of the country’s largest voluntary renewable energy programs and will be adding thousands of megawatts from new solar projects to meet customer demand.

•Improved electric vehicle (EV) accessibility in Detroit: This program will incentivize drivers in DTE’s electric service territory to purchase or lease an EV for use on the Lyft network. Administered through DTE’s Charging Forward program, this partnership provides equitable access to EVs for everyone, while bringing more clean transportation to Southeast Michigan.

•Advanced Scope 3 gas emissions reduction goal by a full decade: Previously scheduled for 2050, advancements in greener technologies like green hydrogen, carbon capture and sequestration, renewable natural gas and engagement in

customer voluntary offset programs will enable the company to accelerate the goal of a 35% reduction in gas customer carbon emissions to 2040.

•Awarded $3.48 million in grants: The DTE Foundation funded eight Michigan-based organizations to support program development and create partnerships that support social justice and racial equity efforts. Through the Nature Conservancy, the Foundation also will fund several significant environmental programs throughout Michigan that will preserve, protect and enhance the state’s treasured natural habitats and species. This month the Foundation granted additional funding to seven organizations supporting programs that enhance natural resources in Michigan.

•Customers are receiving energy assistance at record levels: This assistance helps our most vulnerable customers sustain their service. Last year, more than 112,000 customers received over $119 million in energy assistance. This year, DTE customers are projected to receive $145 million.

Outlook for 2022

DTE Energy reaffirms 2022 operating EPS guidance of $5.80 - $6.00.

“We delivered strong first quarter financial results,” said David Ruud, DTE senior vice president and CFO. “We feel confident that we will achieve our financial targets in 2022 while making significant strides in our infrastructure investment plan.”

Reconciliation of reported to operating earnings (non-GAAP) 19 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. Definition of net zero Collective efforts to reduce the carbon emissions of DTE Energy's utility operations and gas suppliers, as well as efforts to offset an amount equivalent to any remaining emissions. Progress towards this goal is estimated and may vary from the calculations of other utility businesses with similar targets. Carbon emissions is defined as emissions of carbon containing compounds, including carbon dioxide and methane, that are identified as greenhouse gases.
