             NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
    DTE ENERGY COMPANY, THE DETROIT EDISON COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARY COMPANIES

NOTE 1 - GENERAL

     These consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with
the Quarterly Report Notes and the Annual Report Notes.  The Notes contained
herein update and supplement matters discussed in the Quarterly Report Notes
and the Annual Report Notes.

     The preceding consolidated financial statements are unaudited, but, in the
opinion of the Company and Detroit Edison, include all adjustments necessary
for a fair statement of the results for the interim periods.  Financial results
for this interim period are not necessarily indicative of results that may be
expected for any other interim period or for the fiscal year.

NOTE 2 - COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

     As discussed in Note 14 of the Annual Report Notes, the Company adopted
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 121 in the fourth
quarter of 1995.  As the result of continuing losses in the operation of its
steam heating business, upon adoption of SFAS No. 121, Detroit Edison wrote off
the remaining net book value of its steam heating plant assets of $42 million
($32 million after-tax) or $0.22 per common share.

     Based on current market conditions, the steam heating operations continue
to generate losses.  Therefore, Detroit Edison will continue to review its
steam heating operations to determine what actions, if any, may be necessary.

INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS' REPORT


To the Board of Directors and Shareholders of
       DTE Energy Company and
       The Detroit Edison Company


We have reviewed the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets
of DTE Energy Company and subsidiary companies and of The Detroit Edison
Company and subsidiary companies as of June 30, 1996, and the related
condensed consolidated statements of income and of cash flows for the
three-month, six-month, and twelve-month periods ended June 30, 1996 and
1995, and the condensed consolidated statements of common shareholders'
equity for the six-month period ended June 30, 1996.  These financial
statements are the responsibility of DTE Energy Company's management and
of The Detroit Edison Company's management.

We conducted our reviews in accordance with standards established by the
American Institute of Certified Public Accountants.  A review of interim
financial information consists principally of applying analytical
procedures to financial data and of making inquiries of persons
responsible for financial and accounting matters.  It is substantially
less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with generally
accepted auditing standards, the objective of which is the expression of
an opinion regarding the financial statements taken as a whole.
Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.

Based on our reviews, we are not aware of any material modifications
that should be made to such condensed consolidated financial statements
for them to be in conformity with generally accepted accounting
principles.

We have previously audited, in accordance with generally accepted
auditing standards, the consolidated balance sheets of DTE Energy
Company and subsidiary companies and of The Detroit Edison Company and
subsidiary companies as of December 31, 1995, and the related
consolidated statements of income, common shareholders' equity, and cash
flows for the year then ended (not presented herein); and in our report
dated January 22, 1996 we expressed an unqualified opinion on those
consolidated financial statements.  In our opinion, the information set
forth in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets as of
December 31, 1995 is fairly stated, in all material respects, in
relation to the consolidated balance sheets from which it has been
derived.

ITEM 2  -    MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
             RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.
             DTE ENERGY COMPANY, THE DETROIT EDISON COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARY
             COMPANIES


     This analysis for the three, six and twelve months ended June 30, 1996, as
compared to the same periods in 1995, should be read in conjunction with the
consolidated financial statements (unaudited), the accompanying Notes, the
Quarterly Report Notes and the Annual Report Notes.

     Detroit Edison is the principal subsidiary of the Company and, as such,
this discussion explains material changes in results of operations of both the
Company and Detroit Edison and identifies recent trends and events affecting
both the Company and Detroit Edison.  For the periods presented, the Company's
operations and those of Detroit Edison are not materially different.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

     For the three months ended June 30, 1996, the Company's net income was
$78.3 million, or $0.54 per common share, down 7 percent from the $84.2
million, or $0.58 per common share earned in the three months ended June 30,
1995.  For the six months ended June 30, 1996, the Company's net income was
$186.7 million, or $1.29 per common share, down 1.9 percent from the $190.2
million, or $1.31 per common share earned in the six months ended June 30,
1995.  The decreases in net income were due to higher operating expenses caused
by an increase in storms and related restoration costs, higher nuclear plant
expenses, and increased depreciation and amortization expenses, partially
offset by increases in electricity sales.  For the twelve months ended June 30,
1996, the Company's net income was $402.4 million, or $2.78 per common share,
up 1.8 percent from the $395.2 million, or $2.72 per common share earned in the
twelve months ended June 30, 1995.

     At June 30, 1996, the book value of the Company's common stock was $23.88
per share, an increase of $0.26 per share or 1.1 percent since December 31,
1995.  Return on average total common shareholders' equity was 11.6% and 11.7%
for the twelve months ended June 30, 1996 and 1995, respectively.

     Detroit Edison's ratio of earnings to fixed charges was 3.14 and 3.20 for
the twelve months ended June 30, 1996 and 1995, respectively.  Detroit Edison's
ratio of earnings to fixed charges and preferred stock dividends for the 1996
and 1995 twelve-month periods was 2.82 and 2.79, respectively.

SPECIAL MANUFACTURING CONTRACTS

     In March 1995, the MPSC issued an order approving Detroit Edison's 10-year
special manufacturing contracts with Chrysler Corporation, Ford Motor Company
and General Motors Corporation.  In return for their long-term commitments,
these companies receive a reduction in the price paid for electricity.  For
additional information, see Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operations in the Annual Report.

PSCR CLAUSE

     The decreases in PSCR Clause revenues resulted from lower average unit
costs of fuel and purchased power.

kWh SALES


kWh sales increased (decreased) as follows:

     The increases in residential and commercial sales reflect colder winter
weather and customer growth, and for the twelve-month period, substantially
warmer summer weather.  Commercial sales also reflect an improvement in
economic conditions.

     Increased industrial sales in the three-month and six-month periods
reflect strong demand in the automotive and construction sectors.  The
increases in industrial sales for the twelve-month period reflect higher sales
to automotive, steel and other customers due to improved economic conditions.

     The increased sales to other customers reflect increased load requirements
of wholesale for resale customers.

     Interconnection sales decreases for the three-month and six-month periods
reflect decreased demand for energy.  The increase in interconnection sales for
the twelve-month period reflects the improved availability of energy available
for sale in meeting demand during the substantially warmer summer weather in
1995.

FERMI 2 CAPACITY FACTOR PERFORMANCE STANDARD RESERVE

     Because of a turbine-generator failure in December 1993, Fermi 2, a
nuclear generating unit, was out of service in 1994 and early 1995.  As a
result, under the MPSC capacity factor performance standard, a disallowance of
net incremental replacement power cost will be imposed in each of the years
1994-1998 for the amount by which the Fermi 2 three-year rolling average
capacity factor is less than the greater of either the average of the top 50%
of U. S. boiling water reactors or 50%.  Detroit Edison recorded a reserve for
such disallowances of $31 million in 1994 and $32 million in 1995, which
amounts were charged to operating revenues.  For additional information, see
Notes 2 and 3 in the Annual Report.

     Operating revenues have increased due to the absence of Fermi 2 reserve
charges in the 1996 three-month and six-month periods, and due to a decrease in
Fermi 2 reserve charges in the 1996 twelve-month period.

OPERATING EXPENSES
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
FUEL AND PURCHASED POWER

Fuel and purchased power expenses increased (decreased) due to the following
factors:

</TABLE>

     Fuel and purchased power expense decreased in the three-month and
six-month periods due to lower average unit costs resulting from increased
usage of lower cost nuclear generation and lower-cost Western low-sulfur coal,
and, in the three-month period, lower net system output.  The decrease in the
six-month period was partially offset by higher net system output.

     For the twelve-month period, fuel and purchased power expense increased
due to higher net system output and the prior-period receipt of Fermi 2
business interruption insurance, partially offset by lower average unit costs
resulting from increased usage of lower cost nuclear generation and lower-cost
Western low-sulfur coal.  Fermi 2 was out of service in 1994 and early 1995 as
a result of a turbine-generator failure in December 1993.

OTHER OPERATION

Three Months

     Other operation expense increased due primarily to higher sales expenses
($4.5 million), nuclear plant expenses ($4.1 million), lump sum payments to
union employees ($3.6 million) and higher employee retirement and savings plan
expenses ($2.6 million).  These increases were partially offset by lower
incentive award expenses related to a

                                       19


<PAGE>   20

shareholder value improvement plan ($5.4 million) and lower fossil plant
expenses ($3.2 million).

Six Months

     Other operation expense increased due primarily to higher nuclear plant
($7.8 million) and major storm ($4.8 million) expenses, lump sum payments to
union employees ($3.6 million) and higher employee retirement plan ($3.0
million) and demand side management ($3.9 million) expenses.  These increases
were partially offset by lower incentive award expenses related to a
shareholder value improvement plan ($5.4 million).

Twelve Months

     Other operation expense increased due primarily to higher major storm
expenses ($14.8 million), an increase in a reserve for the write-off of
obsolete and excess stock material ($9.0 million), expenses related to the
settlement of the Ludington Pumped Storage Plant fish mortality case ($8.4
million), higher demand side management expenses ($8.8 million), Electric Power
Research Institute dues ($4.8 million), higher incentive award expenses related
to a shareholder value improvement plan ($3.9 million), lump sum payments to
union employees ($3.6 million) and higher sales expenses ($2.8 million).  These
increases were partially offset by expenses recorded in the year-earlier period
for service quality claims ($8.7 million), and lower uncollectible ($7.7
million), postretirement benefits ($6.4 million) and nuclear plant ($5.5
million) expenses.

MAINTENANCE

Three Months

     Maintenance expense increased due to higher overhead and underground lines
support ($9.6 million), general property ($3.3 million), nuclear plant ($3.2
million) and station equipment ($2.2 million) expenses.

Six Months

     Maintenance expense increased due to higher overhead and underground lines
support ($16.3 million), general property ($6.2 million), major storm ($5.4
million), nuclear plant ($5.1 million) and station equipment ($4.8 million)
expenses.

Twelve Months

     Maintenance expense increased due primarily to higher overhead and
underground lines support ($19.6 million), major storm ($15.7 million), general
property ($6.2 million) and station equipment ($4.8 million) expenses.  These
increases were

                                       20


<PAGE>   21

partially offset by lower nuclear plant ($12.9 million) and fossil plant ($2.9
million) expenses.

STEAM PLANT IMPAIRMENT LOSS

     As the result of continuing losses in the operation of its steam heating
business, upon adoption of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 121
in the fourth quarter of 1995, Detroit Edison wrote off the remaining net book
value of its steam heating plant assets of $42 million.

     Based on current market conditions, the steam heating operations continue
to generate losses.  Therefore, Detroit Edison will continue to review its
steam heating operations to determine what actions, if any, may be necessary.

DEPRECIATION AND AMORTIZATION

     Depreciation and amortization expense increased due primarily to increases
in plant in service, including internally developed software costs.

DEFERRED FERMI 2 AMORTIZATION

     Deferred Fermi 2 amortization, a non-cash item of income, was recorded
beginning with Detroit Edison's purchase of the Wolverine Power Supply
Cooperative, Inc.'s ownership interest in Fermi 2 in February 1990.  The annual
amount deferred decreases each year through 1999.

AMORTIZATION OF DEFERRED FERMI 2 DEPRECIATION AND RETURN

     Deferred Fermi 2 depreciation and return, non-cash items of income, were
recorded beginning with the implementation of the Fermi 2 rate phase-in plan in
January 1988.  The annual amounts of deferred depreciation and return decreased
each year through 1992.  Beginning in 1993 and continuing through 1998, these
deferred amounts will be amortized to operating expense as the cash recovery is
realized through revenues.

TAXES OTHER THAN INCOME TAXES

     Taxes other than income taxes increased due to higher payroll and property
taxes.

INCOME TAXES

     Income taxes decreased due to lower pretax operating income.

OTHER INCOME AND DEDUCTIONS
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
OTHER INCOME AND (DEDUCTIONS) - NET

Three Months

     Other deductions increased due to expenses related to merchandise, jobbing
and contract work.

Six Months

     Other deductions decreased due to lower promotional practices expense
($7.2 million) and lower expenses related to the sale of accounts receivables
and unbilled revenues ($3.1 million).

Twelve Months

     Other deductions decreased due to lower expenses related to the sale of
accounts receivable and unbilled revenues ($8.4 million), promotional practices
expense ($5.0 million) and contributions expense ($3.7 million).

ACCRETION INCOME

     Accretion income, a non-cash item of income, was recorded beginning in
January 1988 to restore to income, over the period 1988-1998, losses recorded
due to discounting indirect disallowances of plant costs.  The annual amount of
accretion income recorded decreases each year through 1998.

INTEREST CHARGES
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

LONG-TERM DEBT

     Long-term debt interest charges were higher due to the issuance of QUIDS.

OTHER

     Other interest charges were lower due primarily to lower levels of
short-term borrowings.

PREFERRED STOCK DIVIDENDS OF DETROIT EDISON
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

     Preferred stock dividends of Detroit Edison decreased due to the
redemption of all of the outstanding Cumulative Preferred Stock, 7.68% Series,
7.45% Series and 7.36%

                                       22

Series and the exchange of a portion of the 7.75% Series for QUIDS and the
redemption and/or conversion of all shares of the convertible 5.50% Series.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

COMPETITION
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

THE DETROIT EDISON COMPANY

     FERC. On April 24, 1996, the FERC issued Orders 888 and 889.  Order 888
requires public utilities to file open access transmission tariffs for
wholesale transmission services in accordance with non-discriminatory terms and
conditions established by the FERC.  On July 9, 1996, the Detroit Edison
Company filed its Pro-Forma Open Access Transmission Tariff in compliance with
FERC Order 888.  The tariff sets forth the terms and conditions under which
Detroit Edison will supply wholesale Firm and Non-Firm Point-to-Point
Transmission Service as well as Network Integration Transmission Service (a
service which allows the network customer to integrate, economically dispatch
and regulate its network resources to serve its network load in a manner
comparable to that in which the transmission provider utilizes its transmission
system to serve its native load customers).  Detroit Edison's filing also
included the development and cost support for the rates to be charged for
transmission service and the various ancillary services that are required to be
offered.  Order 888 permits the recovery of stranded costs on a case by case
basis.

     Effective with the filing, Detroit Edison must take transmission service
(including ancillary services) under the open access tariff for any new
wholesale sales or purchases.  Existing economy energy coordination agreements
must be unbundled to take service under the transmission tariff after December
31, 1996.  Effective October 1996, all bills submitted to wholesale
requirements customers must include unbundled informational rates as a line
item in order to allow customers to compare rates and evaluate alternative
contracts.  By December 31, 1996, Detroit Edison, as a member of a pool, must
file a joint pool-wide pro forma tariff and must begin to take service under
that tariff for all pool transactions.  Power pool agreements must be reformed
to establish open, non-discriminatory provisions and to modify any provisions
that are unduly discriminatory or preferential.

     By November 1, 1996, public utilities are required by Order 889 to obtain
transmission information for wholesale transactions through a system on the
Internet.  Public utilities must separate transmission operations and
reliability functions from wholesale marketing functions.

     FERC has also issued a NOPR on Capacity Reservation Transmission Tariffs
("CRT").  The NOPR requests comment by October 21, 1996 on whether there are
certain disadvantages inherent in offering transmission service on both a
network and

                                       23


<PAGE>   24

point-to-point basis and whether comparability can be better accomplished using
a single different methodology.  The proposed CRT approach suggests that no
later than December 31, 1997, all pro forma point-to-point and network service
be replaced with a single point-to-point tariff that provides for
reservation-based transmission service for all jurisdictional (wholesale sales
and wholesale and retail transmission) service.

     Detroit Edison is currently unable to estimate the revenue impact, if any,
of these newly required tariffs and procedures.

     MPSC.  On April 12, 1996, the MPSC issued a "Scheduling Order" which
required Detroit Edison and Consumers Power Company to file "applications" by
May 15, 1996 containing proposals addressing the recommendation of Michigan
Governor Engler and the Michigan Jobs Commission ("MJC") to "allow new
industrial/commercial electrical load to be negotiated directly from the
generator and wheeled over 'common' transmission" by January 1, 1997.  The MPSC
emphasized in its order "that this is the first step toward consideration of
the recommendations made by the MJC.  Further proceedings for both electric and
gas utilities may be ordered as necessary for consideration of all relevant
issues."

     Detroit Edison filed its application on May 15, 1996, stating that the
MJC's report set out a framework for a transition to a competitive environment
that included six specific recommendations associated with a near term deadline
of January 1, 1997.  However, the MPSC's scheduling order only sought proposals
regarding the first recommendation.  Detroit Edison indicated it does not
support piecemeal implementation of the MJC's framework.  Detroit Edison also
stated that, although the MPSC has no legal authority to compel Michigan
utilities to offer retail wheeling services, it would voluntarily develop a
retail wheeling program as part of a comprehensive implementation of the MJC's
recommendations, including the development of a mechanism to recover stranded
costs.

     Detroit Edison also indicated that it will take some time to develop a
tariff that, among other things, identifies and separates the transmission and
distribution facilities as required by FERC Order 888.  In the interim, Detroit
Edison requested ex parte authority to immediately offer an Economic Growth
Service Rider to be used as a tool to attract new business.  The proposed
rider, which is still before the MPSC, contains significant price discounts for
new commercial and industrial customers.

     Detroit Edison is continuing to address its competitive status and the
needs of its customers by entering into long-term (10 years) service contracts
with large commercial and industrial customers.  A number of such contracts,
which must be approved by the MPSC prior to implementation, are pending before
the MPSC.  The MPSC is also considering a Detroit Edison request for approval
of an industrial process heat rider.

CASH GENERATION AND CASH REQUIREMENTS
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

CONSOLIDATED STATEMENT OF CASH FLOWS (UNAUDITED)

     Net cash from operating activities increased due primarily to changes in
current assets and liabilities, primarily as a result of the 1995 repurchase of
customer accounts receivable and unbilled revenues and for the twelve-month
period, higher non-cash charges to income and higher net income.  Net cash from
operating activities for Detroit Edison decreased for the three-month period
due to lower net income.

     Net cash used for investing activities was higher due to increased plant
and equipment expenditures.

     Net cash used for financing activities was lower in the three-month period
due to an increase in short-term borrowings, partially offset by the redemption
of long-term debt.  Net cash used for financing activities for the six-month
period was higher due to decreases in short-term borrowings and higher
redemptions of long-term debt.  Net cash used for financing activities for the
twelve-month period was higher due to the redemption of preferred stock and a
decrease in short-term borrowings, partially offset by increased funds received
from Trustees and the purchase of common stock in the prior period.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

     In May and June 1996, Detroit Edison purchased a total of $50 million of
General and Refunding Mortgage Bonds on the open market, consisting of $29.5
million of 7.74% 1993 Series J, $19.5 million of 8.24% 1993 Series C and $1
million of 8.25% 1993 Series C.  These bonds have been canceled.

     Detroit Edison's 1996 cash requirements for its capital expenditure
program are estimated at $482 million, of which $222 million had been expended
as of June 30, 1996.

     Detroit Edison's internal cash generation is expected to be sufficient to
meet cash requirements for capital expenditures as well as scheduled long-term
debt redemptions.

     Expenditures for 1996 non-regulated investments are estimated to range
from $100 million to $200 million of which $27 million had been expended as of
June 30, 1996.

     The Company had short-term credit arrangements of approximately $658
million at June 30, 1996, under which $95 million of borrowings were
outstanding.  Of the total amount, $200 million represents a DTE Capital
Corporation Revolving Credit Agreement, backed by a Support Agreement from the
Company.  The remaining $458 million results from Detroit Edison arrangements.

                          PART II - OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1 - LEGAL PROCEEDINGS.

     On May 28, 1996 an order was issued by the Circuit Court for Wayne County,
Michigan certifying a plaintiff class (Gilford, et al v Detroit Edison) in a
lawsuit claiming that Detroit Edison had engaged in age and racial
discrimination.  Detroit Edison has appealed the class certification to the
Michigan Court of Appeals and has, also, filed a motion for summary disposition
of the lawsuit with the Circuit Court for Wayne County.  Detroit Edison is of
the opinion that the allegations of discrimination are without merit.

ITEM 5 - OTHER INFORMATION.

     As discussed in Part I, Items 1 and 2 - Business and Properties,
"Regulation and Rates - Michigan Public Service Commission - Retail Wheeling"
of the Annual Report and in Item 5 - Other Information of the Quarterly Report,
on March 1, 1996, MascoTech Forming Technologies, Inc., a Detroit Edison
industrial customer currently purchasing approximately 25 MW of electricity
annually (with the potential for an additional 6 MW annually), petitioned the
MPSC to establish a "cost based fair and pro-competitive transportation rate"
for its new and existing electric load.  A March 19, 1996 Detroit Edison motion
to dismiss asserting that the MPSC lacks jurisdiction to establish the
requested rate is pending at the MPSC.  The Michigan Attorney General has been
permitted to intervene and another public utility that had been denied
intervention by the ALJ has been granted intervenor status on appeal to the
MPSC.  Hearings commenced on June 24, 1996.  The current procedural schedule
provides that the ALJ will issue a PFD by September 30, 1996 and a final MPSC
order will be issued in early December 1996.

     On May 8, 1996, the NRC issued the fifteenth Systematic Assessment of
Licensee Performance report on Fermi 2 operations during the period from April
1994 through March 1996.  The NRC assessment of nuclear activities was good
overall.

     On May 21, 1996, the NRC issued Detroit Edison a Notice of Violation and
Proposed Imposition of Civil Penalty in the amount of $50,000 for failure to
take prompt action to identify and correct a potential common mode failure of
water pumps at the Fermi 2 plant on February 5, 1996.  Detroit Edison did not
contest the violation or civil penalty.  The civil penalty was paid on June 20,
1996.

     The state of Michigan's Mercury Pollution Prevention Task Force's final
report, released in April 1996, reviewed sources of mercury and recommended
action programs for reduction of mercury discharges to the environment from six
main segments of society.  The recommendations for the utility industry focused
on encouraging the EPA to finalize its mercury study reports to Congress and
the MPSC and utilities to support additional research to determine the full
environmental costs of mercury emissions.  The report also urged continued
Michigan utility support of renewable energy projects and asked the utilities
to develop a plan with timetables and goals to further reduce mercury usage or
emissions.  At this time, until studies are complete and resulting regulations,
if any, are promulgated, the impact upon Detroit Edison cannot be determined.

     As discussed in Part I - Items 1 and 2 - Business and Properties,
"Environmental Matters - Water" of the Annual Report, National Pollution
Discharge Elimination System permits for Detroit Edison's power plants are
issued by the MDEQ pursuant to delegation by the EPA under the federal Clean
Water Act.  One permit renewal was issued in June 1996 and one permit renewal
application was filed, leaving six permit renewal applications (submitted in
1996, 1994 and earlier) pending.  The expired permits remain effective until
new permits are issued or denied.

     As discussed in Part 1 - Items 1 and 2 - Business and Properties,
"Employees and Executive Officers - Employees" of the Annual Report, the
Company and its directors and officers in their capacities as such are insured
against liability for wrongful acts (to the extent defined) under three
insurance policies.  The aggregate coverage under the policies has been
increased from $85 million to $95 million.
