The days of inventory on hand (DOH) for DTE Energy Company has fluctuated over the reported period. In December 2020, the DOH significantly decreased to 38.75 days, indicating more efficient inventory management. However, in subsequent quarters, the DOH increased, reaching a peak of 484.46 days on September 30, 2024. This suggests potential challenges in managing inventory levels efficiently, which could tie up working capital and lead to increased holding costs.

It is essential for DTE Energy Company to monitor its inventory levels closely, streamline its supply chain processes, and potentially implement inventory optimization strategies to improve DOH and enhance overall operational efficiency. Efforts to strike a balance between maintaining adequate inventory levels to meet demand and avoiding excess inventory that could lead to higher costs will be crucial for the company's financial health and performance.
