Item 2.02. Results of Operations and Financial Condition.

On May 10, 2005, DTE Energy Company revised previously announced first quarter 2005 earnings to incorporate the impact of orders received by Michigan Consolidated Gas Company (“MichCon”) from the Michigan Public Service Commission (“MPSC”) regarding, among other things, MichCon’s previous request for rate relief. The MPSC orders, issued on April 28, 2005, impacted the DTE Energy first quarter financial results announced on April 27, 2005. A copy of the release is furnished as Exhibit 99.1 and incorporated herein by reference.
