There are some things that simply shouldn’t have shareholders. Prisons is another one.TC Talks wrote: ↑Mon Mar 13, 2023 10:14 amHere's some revealing news from DTE...
DTE Energy cut its operations budget to meet earnings projections months before a historic ice storm on Feb. 22 left more than 450,000 of its customers without power, company officials said recently as they released year-end earnings.
Job openings went unfilled. Contractors were eliminated, and overtime limited. Maintenance work was postponed, though a DTE representative says its tree trimming program is not a part of recent cuts.
The mid-November budget cuts helped keep DTE’s 100-year-old dividend payout streak to investors alive: Three weeks before the ice storm, the Detroit-based utility announced a 95-cent per-share dividend for shareholders, bringing the full-year cash payout for investors to $710 million.
The day after the storm, DTE CEO Gerardo Norcia hosted a conference call with Wall Street analysts, telling them the company delivered “strong financial results, continuing our excellent track record of creating shareholder value.”
