Item 2.02. Results of Operations and Financial Condition.
On May 3, 2022, CMS Energy Corporation (“CMS Energy”) issued
a News Release, in which it announced its 2022 first quarter results. Attached as Exhibit 99.1 to this report and incorporated herein
by reference is a copy of the CMS Energy News Release, furnished as a part of this report.
Exhibit 99.1 contains certain financial measures that are considered
“non-GAAP financial measures” as defined in Securities and Exchange Commission rules. Other than forward-looking earnings
guidance, Exhibit 99.1 contains a reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures to their most directly comparable financial measures
calculated and presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. Adjustments could include items
such as discontinued operations, asset sales, impairments, restructuring costs, changes in accounting
principles, changes in federal tax policy, regulatory items from prior years, unrealized gains or losses from mark-to-market adjustments
recognized in net income related to CMS Enterprises’ interest expense, or other items. Management views adjusted earnings
as a key measure of the company’s present operating financial performance and uses adjusted earnings for external communications
with analysts and investors. Internally, the company uses adjusted earnings to measure and assess performance. Because CMS Energy is not
able to estimate the impact of specific line items, which have the potential to significantly impact, favorably or unfavorably, reported
earnings in future periods, Exhibit 99.1 does not contain reported earnings guidance nor a reconciliation for the comparable future period
earnings. The adjusted earnings should be considered supplemental information to assist in understanding our business results, rather
than as a substitute for the reported earnings. All references to net income refer to net income
available to common stockholders and references to earnings per share are on a diluted basis.
Item 7.01. Regulation FD Disclosure.
The information set forth in the CMS Energy News Release dated May
3, 2022, attached as Exhibit 99.1, is incorporated by reference in response to this Item 7.01.
CMS Energy will hold a webcast to discuss its 2022 first quarter results
and provide a business and financial outlook on May 3 at 9:00 a.m. (ET). A copy of the CMS Energy presentation is furnished as Exhibit 99.2
to this report. A webcast of the presentation will be available on the CMS Energy website, www.cmsenergy.com.
In accordance with General Instruction B.2 of Form 8-K, the information
in this Current Report on Form 8-K, including Exhibits 99.1 and 99.2, shall not be deemed “filed” for the purposes of
Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section, nor shall it be deemed
incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act of 1933.
Investors and others should note that CMS Energy routinely posts important
information on its website and considers the Investor Relations section, www.cmsenergy.com/investor-relations, a channel of distribution.
Item 9.01. Financial Statements and Exhibits.
(d) Exhibits.
