MANAGEMENTS NARRATIVE ANALYSIS OF THE RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The Results of Operations discussion for MichCon is presented in accordance
with General Instruction H(2)(a) of Form 10-Q.

MichCon reported losses of $11 million and earnings of $64 million for the
second quarter and six-month period of 2003, respectively, compared with losses
of $34 million and earnings of $21 million for the comparable 2002 periods.
The reduced loss in the second quarter and the higher earnings for the
six-month period were primarily due to charges recorded in the second quarter
of 2002 from the planned sale of our former headquarters and the termination of
a contract for computer services and higher gross margins in 2003.

Gas sales and end user transportation revenues in total increased $44 million
and $104 million in the second quarter and six-month period of 2003,
respectively. The increase is due primarily to an increase in Gas Cost
Recovery (GCR) revenues of $47 million and $79 million for the second quarter
and six-month period of 2003, respectively. Also, the increase for the
six-month period of 2003 is due to $28 million in weather related demand. Since
returning to the GCR mechanism in January 2002, MichCon has no commodity price
risk associated with its prudently incurred gas costs. End user transportation
revenues reflect higher rates and lower volumes for deliveries associated with
a varying number of customers participating in the Customer Choice program.
Customers participating in this program purchase gas from suppliers other than
MichCon, while MichCon continues to deliver the gas to their premises.
Accordingly, margins earned from selling gas and margins generated from
providing end user transportation services to Customer Choice participants are
the same.

Intermediate transportation revenues remained unchanged in the 2003 second
quarter and intermediate transportation deliveries increased 13 billion cubic
feet (Bcf) for the same period. Intermediate transportation revenues increased
$2 million for the six-month period of 2003 and intermediate transportation
deliveries increased 46 billion cubic feet (Bcf) for the same period. A
significant portion of the volume increase was due to storage requirements
combined with a volume increase attributable to customers who pay a fixed fee
for intermediate transportation capacity regardless of actual usage. Although
volumes associated with these fixed-fee customers may vary, the related
revenues are not affected.

Cost of gas is affected by variations in sales volumes, cost of purchased gas
and related transportation costs. Cost of gas sold increased by $44 million and
$81 million in the second quarter and six-month period of 2003, respectively.
The average cost of gas sold increased $1.26 per Mcf (33.4%) and $.47 per Mcf
(10.1%) for the second quarter and six-month period, respectively, from the
comparable 2002 periods.

Operation and maintenance expenses increased $10 million and $21 million for
the second quarter and six-month period, respectively, from the comparable 2002
periods due to higher employee pension and health care benefit costs, higher
uncollectible accounts expense and increased costs associated with customer
service process improvements. As a result of the continued increase in
operating costs, MichCon expects to file a rate case in the latter half of
2003.

Property write-down was $5 million in 2003 due to an
additional charge from the planned sale of our former headquarters. The 2002
second quarter property write-down and contract loss included a $33 million charge from the planned sale of our
former headquarters and a $15 million charge related to the termination of a
contract for computer services (Note 6).

Other income and deductions decreased $2 million and $3 million for the 2003
second quarter and six-month period, respectively, primarily due to lower
interest expense associated with long term debt.

Income taxes increased $14 million and $9 million for the 2003 second quarter
and six-month period, respectively, due to an increase in pre-tax earnings. The
income tax provision for the six-month period of 2003 was favorably affected by
an increase in the amortization of tax benefits previously deferred in
accordance with MPSC regulations.

Operating Activities

Net cash from operating activities increased $101 million during the 2003
six-month period as compared to the same 2002 period primarily due to improved
working capital, specifically accounts payable and gas in inventory, partially
offset by a decline in net income, after adjusting for non-cash items
(depreciation, depletion, amortization, deferred taxes, property write-down and
contract losses).

Investing Activities

Net cash used for investing activities increased $86 million reflecting an
intercompany loan to DTE Energy, resulting from temporary excess cash.

Financing Activities

Net cash used for financing activities increased $19 million reflecting the
redemption of long-term debt, reduction of short-term borrowings and the
payment of a dividend, partially offset by the issuance of $200 million of
long-term debt (Note 5).

MICHIGAN CONSOLIDATED GAS COMPANY
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

NOTE 1  GENERAL

These consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the
notes to the consolidated financial statements included in our 2002 Annual
Report to the Securities and Exchange Commission on Form 10-K.

The accompanying consolidated financial statements are prepared using
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
These accounting principles require us to use estimates and assumptions that
impact the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and
the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. Actual results could
differ from those estimates.

The consolidated financial statements are unaudited, but in our opinion,
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 the results that may be expected for any other interim period or
for the fiscal year.

We reclassified some prior year balances to match the current years
presentation.

NOTE 2  NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

Asset Retirement Obligations

On January 1, 2003, we adopted SFAS No. 143, Accounting for Asset Retirement
Obligations, which requires the fair value of an asset retirement obligation
be recognized in the period in which it is incurred. It applies to legal
obligations associated with the retirement of long-lived assets resulting from
the acquisition, construction, development and (or) the normal operation of a
long-lived asset. When a new liability is recorded, an entity capitalizes the
costs of the liability by increasing the carrying amount of the related
long-lived asset. The liability is accreted to its present value each period,
and the capitalized cost is depreciated over the useful life of the related
asset. Upon settlement of the liability, an entity settles the obligation for
its recorded amount or incurs a gain or loss upon settlement. The adoption of
SFAS No. 143 had an immaterial impact on the consolidated financial statements.

SFAS No. 143 also requires the quantification of the estimated cost of removal
obligations, arising from other than legal obligations, which have been accrued
through depreciation charges. At January 1, 2003, we estimated that we had
approximately $400 million of previously accrued asset removal costs related to
our regulated operations, for other than legal obligations, included in
accumulated depreciation.

NOTE 3  REGULATORY MATTERS

Gas Industry Restructuring

Through December 2001, MichCon was operating under an MPSC-approved Regulatory
Reform Plan, which included a comprehensive experimental three-year gas
Customer Choice program, a Gas Sales Program and an income sharing mechanism.
MichCon returned to a GCR mechanism in January 2002 when the Gas Sales Program
expired. Under the GCR mechanism, the gas commodity component of MichCons gas
sales rates is designed to recover the actual costs of gas purchases. In
December 2001, the MPSC issued an order that permitted MichCon to implement GCR
factors up to $3.62 per Mcf for January 2002 billings and up to $4.38 per

14

##### Table of Contents



Mcf for the remainder of 2002. The order also allowed MichCon to recognize a
regulatory asset of approximately $14 million representing the difference
between the $4.38 factor and the $3.62 factor for volumes that were unbilled at
December 31, 2001. The regulatory asset will be subject to the 2002 GCR
reconciliation process. In July 2002, in response to a petition for rehearing
filed by the Michigan Attorney General, the MPSC directed the parties to
address MichCons implementation of the December 2001 order and the impact of
that implementation on rates charged to MichCons customers. On March 12, 2003,
the MPSC issued an order in MichCons 2002 GCR plan case. The MPSC ordered
MichCon to reduce its gas cost recovery expenses by $26.5 million for purposes
of calculating the 2002 GCR factor due to MichCons decision to utilize storage
gas during 2001 that resulted in a gas inventory decrement for the 2001
calendar year. Although MichCon recorded a $26.5 million reserve in 2002 to
reflect the impact of this order, a final determination of actual 2002 revenue
and expenses including any disallowances or adjustment will be decided in
MichCons 2002 GCR reconciliation case. In addition, we filed an appeal of the
March 12, 2003 MPSC order with the Michigan Court of Appeals.
The 2002  GCR reconciliation case was filed with the MPSC in
February 2003. A final order in this proceeding is not expected until early
2004.

On July 23, 2003, the MPSC approved an increase in MichCons 2003 GCR rate to a
maximum of $5.75 per Mcf for the billing months of August 2003 through December
2003. As of June 30, 2003, MichCon has accrued a $81 million regulatory asset
representing the under-recovery of actual gas costs incurred. It is
expected that the billing of the $5.75 GCR rate will eliminate the
under-recovery by year-end 2003.

In December 2001, the MPSC also approved MichCons application for a voluntary,
expanded permanent gas Customer Choice program, which replaced the experimental
program that expired in March 2002. Effective April 2002, up to 40% of
MichCons customers could elect to purchase gas from suppliers other than
MichCon. Effective April 2003, up to 60% of customers are eligible and by April
2004, all of MichCons 1.2 million customers can participate in the program.
The MPSC also approved the use of deferred accounting for the recovery of
implementation costs of the Customer Choice program. As of June 2003,
approximately 132,000 customers are participating in the Customer Choice
program.

NOTE 4  GAS IN INVENTORY

Inventory gas is priced on a last-in, first-out (LIFO) basis. In anticipation
that interim inventory reductions will be replaced prior to year end, the cost
of gas of net withdrawals from inventory is recorded at the estimated average
purchase rate for the calendar year. The excess of these charges over the LIFO
cost is credited to the gas inventory equalization account. During interim
periods when there are net injections to inventory, the equalization account is
reversed.

NOTE 5  LONG TERM DEBT

In February 2003, MichCon issued $200 million of 5.7% senior notes due in March
2033. The proceeds were used for debt redemption.

NOTE 6  UNUSUAL CHARGES

Property Write-down

In June 2002, we recorded a $33 million pre-tax ($22 million net of taxes)
charge from the planned sale of our former headquarters. An additional $5
million pre-tax ($4 million net of taxes) charge was recorded in June 2003 to
further reduce the carrying value of the property to fair value based on the
estimated selling price less cost to sell.

##### Table of Contents



Contract Loss

In June 2002, we recorded a $15 million pre-tax ($10 million net of taxes)
charge related to the termination of a contract for computer services with an
unrelated third party.

NOTE 7  CONTINGENCIES

We are involved in certain legal (including commercial matters), administrative
and environmental proceedings before various courts, arbitration panels and
governmental agencies concerning claims arising in the ordinary course of
business. These proceedings include certain contract disputes, environmental
reviews and investigations, and pending judicial matters. We cannot predict
the final disposition of such proceedings. We regularly review legal matters
and record provisions for claims that are considered probable of loss. The
resolution of pending proceedings is not expected to have a material effect on
our financial statements in the period they are resolved.

See Note 3 for a discussion of contingencies related to Regulatory Matters.

INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS REPORT

To the Board of Directors and Shareholder of
Michigan Consolidated Gas Company

We have reviewed the accompanying condensed consolidated statement of financial
position of Michigan Consolidated Gas Company and subsidiaries as of June 30,
2003, the related condensed consolidated statements of operations for the
three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2003 and 2002 and the
condensed consolidated statements of cash flows and retained earnings for the
six-month periods ended June 30, 2003 and 2002. These interim financial
statements are the responsibility of Michigan Consolidated Gas 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
and making inquiries of persons responsible for financial and accounting
matters. It is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in
accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of
America, 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 interim financial statements for
them to be in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the
United States of America.

We have previously audited, in accordance with auditing standards generally
accepted in the United States of America, the consolidated statement of
financial position of Michigan Consolidated Gas Company and subsidiaries as of
December 31, 2002, and the related consolidated statements of operations, cash
flows and retained earnings for the year then ended (not presented herein); and
in our report dated February 11, 2003 (March 12, 2003 as to Note 17), we
expressed an unqualified opinion on those consolidated financial statements. In
our opinion, the information set forth in the accompanying condensed
consolidated statement of financial position as of December 31, 2002 is fairly
stated, in all material respects, in relation to the consolidated statement of
financial position from which it has been derived.
