NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

  1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

The accompanying unaudited interim financial statements and notes of Devon have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC. Pursuant to such rules and regulations, certain disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been omitted. The accompanying unaudited interim financial statements and notes should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes included in Devon’s 2018 Annual Report on Form 10-K .

The accompanying unaudited interim financial statements in this report reflect all adjustments that are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair statement of Devon’s results of operations and cash flows for the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2019 and 2018 and Devon’s financial position as of June 30, 2019. As further discussed in Note 18 , Devon sold its Canadian operations on June 27, 2019 and its ownership interests in EnLink and the General Partner on July 18, 2018. Activity relating to Devon’s Canadian operations and EnLink and the General Partner are classified as discontinued operations within Devon’s consolidated comprehensive statements of earnings and consolidated statements of cash flows. The associated assets and liabilities of Devon’s Canadian operations are presented as assets and liabilities associated with discontinued operations on the consolidated balance sheets.

Segment Information

Subsequent to the sale of Devon’s Canadian business in 2019 discussed in Note 18 , Devon’s oil and gas exploration and production activities are solely focused in the U.S. For financial reporting purposes, Devon aggregates its U.S. operating segments into one reporting segment due to the similar nature of its business. With the reclassification of Devon’s Canadian operations to discontinued operations and assets and liabilities associated with discontinued operations, Devon now has one reporting segment, which is reflected in the consolidated financial statements.

The following table presents revenue from contracts with customers that are disaggregated based on the type of good.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS – (Continued)

(Unaudited)

The SEC released Final Rule No. 33 -10532, Disclosure Update and Simplification , which amends various SEC disclosure requirements determined to be redundant, duplicative, overlapping, outdated or superseded as part of the SEC’s ongoing disclosure effectiveness initiative. The rule was effective November 5, 2018. The rule amended numerous SEC rules, items and forms covering a diverse group of topics. Devon has implemented these required changes which generally reduced or eliminated disclosures. Devon adopted the requirement of presenting curr ent and comparative quarterly stockholders’ equity roll forward s in the first quarter of 2019.

The SEC released Final Rule Release No. 33-10618 , FAST Act Modernization and Simplification of Regulation S-K , which amends Regulation S-K to modernize and simplify certain disclosure requirements in a manner that reduces costs and burdens on registrants while continuing to provide all material information to investors. The rule became effective May 2, 2019. The rule amended numerous SEC rules, items and forms covering a diverse group of topics, primarily focusing on reducing or eliminating disclosures. Other than presentation, this adoption did not have a material impact on Devon’s consolidated financial statements.

Issued Accounting Standards Not Yet Adopted

The FASB issued ASU 2018-13, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement . This ASU will eliminate, add and modify certain disclosure requirements for fair value measurement. The ASU is effective for annual and interim periods beginning January 1, 2020, with early adoption permitted for either the entire standard or only the provisions that eliminate or modify requirements. The ASU requires the additional disclosure requirements to be adopted using a retrospective approach. Devon is currently evaluating the provisions of this ASU and assessing the impact it may have on its disclosures in the notes to the consolidated financial statements.

The FASB issued ASU 2018-15, Intangibles, Goodwill and Other Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Customer’s Accounting for Implementation Costs Incurred in a Cloud Computing Arrangement that is a Service Contract . This ASU will require a customer in a cloud computing arrangement (i.e., hosting arrangement) that is a service contract to follow the internal-use software guidance in ASC 350-40 to determine which implementation costs to capitalize as assets or expense as incurred. Capitalized implementation costs related to a hosting arrangement that is a service contract will be amortized over the term of the hosting arrangement, beginning when the module or component of the hosting arrangement is ready for its intended use. This ASU is effective for annual and interim periods beginning January 1, 2020, with early adoption permitted. Entities have the option to adopt the ASU using either a retrospective approach or a prospective approach applied to all implementation costs incurred after the date of the adoption. Devon is currently evaluating the provisions of this ASU and assessing the impact it may have on its consolidated financial statements.

  1. Dive stitures

In February 2019, Devon announced its intent to separate its Canadian business and Barnett Shale assets from the Company, based on authorizations provided by its Board of Directors. On June 27, 2019 , Devon completed the sale of all of its operating assets and operations in Canada to Canadian Natural Resources Limited for proceeds, net of purchase price adjustments, of $ 2.6 billion ($ 3.4 billion Canadian dollars), and recognized a pre-tax gain of $ 189 million ($ 460 million, net of tax). As a part of the transaction, $ 436 million of asset retirement obligations were assumed by Canadian Natural Resources Limited. In aggregate, the total estimated proved reserves associated with these assets were approximately 400 MMBoe, or 21 % of total proved reserves. In conjunction with the Canadian divestiture, Devon recognized $ 273 million of restructuring and asset impairment related charges. These costs relate to personnel, office lease abandonment and a firm transportation agreement abandonment. Additional information on these discontinued operations can be found in Note 18 .

Devon is evaluating multiple methods of separation for the Barnett Shale assets, including a potential sale, potential mergers or spin-off. As of June 30, 2019, Devon does not currently have any indications that it would recognize an impairment upon separating its Barnett Shale assets as they are long-lived assets that are held for use. This conclusion is based on probability-weighted computations applied to the separation methods currently under evaluation. As of June 30, 2019, Devon’s carrying value of its Barnett Shale net assets (property and equipment, asset retirement obligations and estimated allocated goodwill) was approximately $ 1.4 billion. Should Devon enter into a transaction that causes Devon to cease having control, such as a cash sale or exchange for a noncontrolling interest in another entity or combination thereof, Devon would recognize a gain or loss based on the value of the proceeds and/or equity interests as compared to the carrying value. Devon anticipates reporting all information for its Barnett Shale assets as discontinued operations in 2019 when all the requisite criteria are met for such financial statement presentation .

In the first quarter of 2019, Devon received proceeds of approximately $ 300 million and recognized a $ 44 million net gain on asset dispositions, primarily from sales of non-core assets in the Permian Basin. In aggregate, the total estimated proved reserves associated with these divested assets were approximately 25 MMBoe, or less than 2 % of total U.S. proved reserves. As of December

31, 2018, assets and liabilities associated with these divested assets were classified as held for sale in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet.

During the second quarter of 2018, Devon sold a portion of its Barnett Shale assets, primarily located in Johnson County for $ 553 million. Estimated proved reserves associated with these assets were approximately 10 % of total proved reserves. The transaction resulted in an adjustment to Devon’s capitalized costs with no gain recognized in the consolidated statement of earnings. In conjunction with the divestiture, Devon settled certain gas processing contracts and recognized an approximately $ 40 million settlement expense, which is included in asset dispositions within the consolidated statement of earnings.

  1. Derivative Fin ancial Instruments

Objectives and Strategies

Devon enters into derivative financial instruments with respect to a portion of its oil, gas and NGL production to hedge future prices received. Additionally, Devon periodically enters into derivative financial instruments with respect to a portion of its oil, gas and NGL marketing activities. These commodity derivative financial instruments include financial price swaps, basis swaps and costless price collars. Devon periodically enters into interest rate swaps to manage its exposure to interest rate volatility. As of June 30, 2019, Devon did not have any open interest rate swap contracts.

Devon does not intend to hold or issue derivative financial instruments for speculative trading purposes and has elected not to designate any of its derivative instruments for hedge accounting treatment.

Counterparty Credit Risk

By using derivative financial instruments, Devon is exposed to credit risk. Credit risk is the failure of the counterparty to perform under the terms of the derivative contract. To mitigate this risk, the hedging instruments are placed with a number of counterparties whom Devon believes are acceptable credit risks. It is Devon’s policy to enter into derivative contracts only with investment-grade rated counterparties deemed by management to be competent and competitive market makers. Additionally, Devon’s derivative contracts generally contain provisions that provide for collateral payments if Devon’s or its counterparty’s credit rating falls below certain credit rating levels.

  1. Asset Impairments

Unproved Impairments

During the first six months of 2018, Devon impaired certain non-core acreage in the U.S. that it no longer intends to pursue for exploration opportunities, resulting in unproved impairments of $ 61 million. Unproved impairments are included in exploration expenses in the consolidated comprehensive statements of earnings.

Asset Impairments

During the second quarter of 2018, Devon recognized $ 109 million of proved asset impairments relating to U.S. non-core assets no longer in its development plans and approximately $ 45 million of non-oil and gas asset impairments.

  1. Restructuring and Transaction Costs

During the first quarter of 2019, Devon announced workforce reductions and other initiatives designed to enhance its operational focus and cost structure in conjunction with the portfolio transformation announcement further discussed in Note 2 . As a result, Devon recognized $ 63 million of restructuring expenses during the first six months of 2019. Of these expenses, $ 24 million resulted from

accelerated vesting of share-based grants, which are noncash charges. Additionally, $ 5 million resulted from settlements of defined retirement benefits.

During the second quarter of 2018, Devon recognized $ 85 million in personnel related restructuring expenses related to workforce reductions. Of these expenses, $ 26 million resulted from accelerated vesting of share-based grants, which are noncash charges. Additionally, $ 15 million resulted from estimated settlements of defined retirement benefits.

Devon anticipates recognizing additional restructuring charges in 2019 primarily when the separation of its Barnett Shale assets is completed.

The following table summarizes Devon’s restructuring liabilities.

  1. Inco me Taxes

The following table presents Devon’s total income tax expense (benefit) and a reconciliation of its effective income tax rate to the U.S. statutory income tax rate.

Three Months Ended June 30, — 2019 2018 2019 2018
Current income tax expense (benefit) $ 2 $ 13 $ ( 1 ) $ 14
Deferred income tax expense (benefit) 69 ( 38 ) ( 4 )
Total income tax expense (benefit) $ 71 $ 13 $ ( 39 ) $ 10
U.S. statutory income tax rate 21 % 21 % 21 % 21 %
State income taxes 8 % ( 1 %) 4 % ( 1 %)
Other 1 % 3 % ( 7 %) ( 2 %)
Deferred tax asset valuation allowance — % ( 26 %) % ( 19 %)
Effective income tax rate 30 % ( 3 %) 18 % ( 1 %)

Devon estimates its annual effective income tax rate to record its quarterly provision for income taxes in the various jurisdictions in which it operates. Statutory tax rate changes and other significant or unusual items are recognized as discrete items in the quarter in which they occur.

In the second quarter of 2019, the deferred tax asset representing Devon’s U.S. state net operating loss that is subject to a valuation allowance increased by $ 11 million from the first quarter of 2019. The corresponding increase in the valuation allowance against the state net operating loss resulted in a deferred tax expense, which is included within state income taxes in the table above.

In the table above, the “other” effect is primarily composed of permanent differences for which dollar amounts do not increase or decrease in relation to the change in pre-tax earnings. Generally, such items have an insignificant impact on Devon’s effective income tax rate. However, these items had a more noticeable impact to the rate in the first six months of 2019 due to the low relative net loss during the period.

Through the first six months of 2018, Devon maintained a 100 % valuation allowance against its U.S. deferred tax assets resulting from prior year cumulative financial losses, oil and gas impairments, and significant net operating losses for U.S. federal and state income tax. However, u pon closing the EnLink divestiture in the third quarter of 2018, Devon reassessed its position and determined that a full valuation allowance against its U.S. deferred tax assets was no longer necessary , maintaining only valuation allowances against certain deferred tax assets, including certain tax credits and state net operating losses.

On June 27, 2019 , Devon completed the sale of all of its Canadian operating assets. Devon’s foreign earnings have not been considered indefinitely reinvested since the announcement of the plan to separate the assets in the first quarter of 2019. As the separation took the form of an asset sale and Devon has retained certain non-operating obligations to be settled over time, Devon has not recorded a deferred tax asset or corresponding valuation allowance related to its Canadian investment.

As the sale of all of its Canadian operating assets closed during the second quarter of 2019, Devon has recorded materially all tax impacts related to the Canadian business in discontinued operations. Additional information on these discontinued operations can be found in Note 18 .

Credit Lines

Devon has a $ 3.0 billion Senior Credit Facility. As of June 30, 2019, Devon had no outstanding borrowings under the Senior Credit Facility and had issued $ 3 million in outstanding letters of credit under this facility. The Senior Credit Facility contains only one material financial covenant. This covenant requires Devon’s ratio of total funded debt to total capitalization, as defined in the credit agreement, to be no greater than 65 %. Under the terms of the credit agreement, total capitalization is adjusted to add back noncash financial write-downs such as impairments. As of June 30, 2019, Devon was in compliance with this covenant with a debt-to-capitalization ratio of 23.4 %.

In connection with the closing of the sale of its Canadian business, Devon reallocated and terminated all Canadian commitments under the Senior Credit Facility in accordance with the terms of the credit agreement governing the Senior Credit Facility. The termination of the Canadian subfacility was effective as of June 27, 2019, and such termination did not decrease the $ 3.0 billion in total revolving commitments under, or otherwise modify the terms of, the Senior Credit Facility.

Retirement of Senior Notes

In January 2019, Devon repaid the $ 162 million of 6.30 % senior notes at maturity.

In the first quarter of 2018, Devon completed tender offers to repurchase $ 807 million in aggregate principal amount of debt securities, using cash on hand. This included $ 384 million of the 7.875 % senior notes due September 30, 2031 and $ 423 million of the 7.95 % senior notes due April 15, 2032 . Devon recognized a $ 312 million loss on early retirement of debt, consisting of $ 304 million in cash retirement costs and $ 8 million of noncash charges. These costs, along with other charges associated with retiring the debt, are included in net financing costs in the consolidated comprehensive statements of earnings.

  1. Le ases

Devon adopted ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) , as of January 1, 2019, using the modified retrospective transition approach. ASC 842 supersedes the previous lease accounting requirements in ASC 840 and requires lessees to recognize leases on-balance sheet and disclose key information about leasing arrangements. ASC 842 establishes a right-of-use model that requires a lessee to recognize a right-of-use asset and lease liability on the balance sheet for all leases with a term longer than 12 months. At adoption, using the modified retrospective transition approach, Devon recorded right-of-use lease assets of $ 394 million and lease liabilities of $ 380 million. Additionally, Devon recorded a $ 24 million before tax, $ 19 million net of tax, cumulative-effect adjustment to reduce retained earnings. Comparative periods have been presented in accordance with ASC Topic 840 and do not include any retrospective adjustments to reflect the adoption of Topic 842. Excluding land easements and rights-of-way, all leases that existed at January 1, 2019 or were entered into or modified thereafter, are accounted for under Topic 842. Devon elected the practical expedient provided in the standard that allows the new guidance to be applied prospectively to all new or modified land easements and rights-of-way. Devon also elected a policy not to recognize right-of-use assets and lease liabilities related to short-term leases with terms of 12 months or less. Additionally, Devon elected to account for lease components separately from the nonlease components.

Devon made certain significant assumptions and judgments in determining its right-of-use asset and lease liability balances. First is the determination of whether a contract contains a lease. Devon considered the presence of an identified asset that is physically distinct, and for which the supplier does not have substantive substitution rights and whether Devon has the right to control the underlying asset. Second, Devon assessed lease terms and considered whether Devon is reasonably certain to extend leases or exercise purchase options. Certain of Devon’s leases include one or more options to renew, with renewal terms that can extend the lease term for additional years. Certain leases also include options to purchase the leased property. For options to renew or purchase that Devon

is reasonably certain to exercise, these costs are recognized as part of the right-of-use assets and lease liabilities. Third, significant judgments have been mad e in determining discount rates. Devon estimates discount rates using market rates that approximate collateralized borrowing s over the remaining term of Devon’s lease payments.

Devon’s right-of-use operating lease assets are for certain leases related to real estate, drilling rigs and other equipment related to the exploration, development and production of oil and gas. Devon’s right-of-use financing lease assets are related to real estate. Certain of Devon’s lease agreements include variable payments based on usage or rental payments adjusted periodically for inflation. Devon’s lease agreements do not contain any material residual value guarantees or restrictive covenants.

The following table presents Devon’s right-of-use assets and lease liabilities as of June 30, 2019.

18 . Discontinued Operations and Assets Held For Sale

Canada

On May 29, 2019, Devon announced it had entered into an agreement to sell all of its operating assets and operations in Canada to Canadian Natural Resources Limited. Devon concluded that the transaction was a strategic shift and met the requirements of assets held for sale and discontinued operations upon the authorization to enter the agreement by Devon’s Board of Directors. As part of its assessment, Devon considered the following: 1) Devon is exiting its entire heavy oil and Canadian operations; 2) Devon’s Canadian operations is a separate reportable segment and is a component of Devon’s business; and 3) the transaction resulted in a material reduction in total assets, revenues, net earnings and total proved reserves. As a result, Devon has classified the results of operations and cash flows related to its Canadian operations as discontinued operations on its consolidated financial statements. Additionally, Devon ceased depreciation and amortization for all plant, property and equipment and intangible assets classified as assets held for sale on the date the sales agreement was approved by the Board of Directors.

On June 27, 2019 , Devon completed the sale of its Canadian business for $ 2.6 billion ($ 3.4 billion Canadian dollars), net of purchase price adjustments, and recognized a pre-tax gain of $ 189 million ($ 460 million net of tax, primarily due to a significant deferred tax benefit). Current (cash) income tax associated with the sale was approximately $ 110 million. The disposition of all of Devon’s Canadian operating assets resulted in Devon releasing its historical cumulative foreign currency translation adjustment of $ 1.2 billion from accumulated other comprehensive earnings to be included within the gain computation. The historical cumulative foreign currency translation portion of the gain is not taxable. Additionally, $ 370 million of the Canadian cash balance is restricted for funding certain tax and other obligations related to the Canadian business and is classified as cash restricted for discontinued operations on the consolidated balance sheets.

In conjunction with the sale of Devon’s Canadian business, Devon recognized $ 273 million of restructuring and asset impairment related charges. Canadian Natural Resources Limited has reimbursed Devon for approximately $ 50 million of these restructuring costs, under the terms of the disposition agreement. Along with certain tax obligations, these costs will be funded with the restricted cash described above. These charges consist of $ 154 million related to a firm transportation agreement abandonment and $ 55 million related to office lease abandonment and related asset impairment charges. Cash payments for the abandonment charges total approximately $ 6 million per quarter. Additionally, there are $ 64 million of employee related costs, including approximately $ 40 million of noncash accelerated vesting of employee stock awards. As mentioned above, Canadian Natural Resources Limited reimbursed the Company for approximately $ 50 million of these costs pursuant to the disposition agreement and Devon expects to fund the remaining costs in the second half of 2019.

Prior to the second quarter of 2019, Devon’s Canadian business maintained a valuation allowance against certain capital loss carryforwards and net operating losses. As a result of the sale of all of Devon’s Canadian operating assets and the lack of future forecasted income, all but approximately $ 34 million of the Canadian deferred tax assets have been offset with a valuation allowance.

As announced on June 27, 2019, Devon utilized a portion of the sales proceeds to early retire its $ 500 million of the 4.00 % senior notes due July 15, 2021 and $ 1.0 billion of the 3.25 % senior notes due May 15, 2022 . Devon expects to recognize a loss on the early retirement of these notes in the third quarter of 2019 consisting of $ 52 million in cash retirement costs and $ 6 million of noncash charges.

EnLink

On June 6, 2018, Devon announced that it had entered into an agreement to sell its aggregate ownership interests in EnLink and the General Partner for $ 3.125 billion. Upon entering into the agreement to sell its ownership interest in June 2018, Devon concluded that the transaction was a strategic shift and met the requirements of assets held for sale and discontinued operations. As a result, Devon classified the results of operations and cash flows related to EnLink and the General Partner as discontinued operations on its consolidated financial statements.

On July 18, 2018 , Devon completed the sale of its aggregate ownership interests in EnLink and the General Partner for $ 3.125 billion and recognized a gain of approximately $ 2.6 billion ($ 2.2 billion after-tax). Current (cash) income tax associated with the transaction was approximately $ 12 million. The vast majority of the tax effect relates to deferred tax expense offset by the valuation allowance adjustment.

As part of the sale agreement, Devon extended its fixed-fee gathering and processing contracts with respect to the Bridgeport and Cana plants with EnLink through 2029. Although the agreements were extended to 2029, the minimum volume commitments for the Bridgeport and Cana plants expired at the end of 2018. Devon has minimum volume commitments for gathering and processing of 77 - 128 MMcf/d with EnLink at the Chisholm plant through early 2021 .

Prior to the divestment of Devon’s aggregate ownership of EnLink and the General Partner, certain activity between Devon and EnLink were eliminated in consolidation. Subsequent to the divestment, all activity related to EnLink represent third-party transactions and are no longer eliminated in consolidation.

During the first six months of 2019, Devon had net outflows of approximately $ 280 million with EnLink, which primarily related to gathering and processing expenses. These net outflows represent gross cash amounts and not net working interest amounts.

19 . Commitments and Contingencies

Devon is party to various legal actions arising in the normal course of business. Matters that are probable of unfavorable outcome to Devon and which can be reasonably estimated are accrued. Such accruals are based on information known about the matters, Devon’s estimates of the outcomes of such matters and its experience in contesting, litigating and settling similar matters. None of the actions are believed by management to likely involve future amounts that would be material to Devon’s financial position or results of operations after consideration of recorded accruals. Actual amounts could differ materially from management’s estimates .

Royalty Matters

Numerous oil and natural gas producers and related parties, including Devon, have been named in various lawsuits alleging royalty underpayments. Devon is currently named as a defendant in a number of such lawsuits, including some lawsuits in which the plaintiffs seek to certify classes of similarly situated plaintiffs. Among the allegations typically asserted in these suits are claims that Devon used below-market prices, made improper deductions, used improper measurement techniques and entered into gas purchase and processing arrangements with affiliates that resulted in underpayment of royalties in connection with oil, natural gas and NGLs produced and sold. Devon is also involved in governmental agency proceedings and royalty audits and is subject to related contracts and regulatory controls in the ordinary course of business, some that may lead to additional royalty claims. Devon does not currently believe that it is subject to material exposure with respect to such royalty matters.

Environmental Matters

Devon is subject to certain laws and regulations relating to environmental remediation activities associated with past operations, such as the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act and similar state statutes. In response to liabilities associated with these activities, loss accruals primarily consist of estimated uninsured remediation costs. Devon’s monetary exposure for environmental matters is not expected to be material.

Beginning in 2013, various parishes in Louisiana filed suit against more than 100 oil and gas companies, including Devon, alleging that the companies’ operations and activities in certain fields violated the State and Local Coastal Resource Management Act of 1978, as amended, and caused substantial environmental contamination, subsidence and other environmental damages to land and

(Unaudited)

water bodies located in the coastal zone of Louisiana. The plaintiffs seek, among other things, the payment of the costs necessary to clear, re-vegetate and otherwise restore the allegedly impacted areas. Although Devon cannot predict the ultimate outcome of these matters, Devon is vigorously defending against these claims.

Other Matters

Devon is involved in other various legal proceedings incidental to its business. However, to Devon’s knowledge, there were no material pending legal proceedings to which Devon is a party or to which any of its property is subject.

2 0 . Fair Value Measurements

The following table provides carrying value and fair value measurement information for certain of Devon’s financial assets and liabilities. The carrying values of cash, cash restricted for discontinued operations, accounts receivable, other current receivables, accounts payable, other current payables, accrued expenses and lease liabilities included in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets approximated fair value at June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, as applicable. Therefore, such financial assets and liabilities are not presented in the following table.

Carrying Total Fair Fair Value Measurements Using: — Level 1 Level 2
Amount Value Inputs Inputs

Commodity derivatives $ ( 33 ) $ ( 33 ) $ — $ ( 33 )
Debt $ ( 4,454 ) $ ( 4,494 ) $ — $ ( 4,494 )

The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair values in the table above.

Level 1 Fair Value Measurements

Cash equivalents – Amounts consist primarily of money market investments and the fair value approximates the carrying value.

Level 2 Fair Value Measurements

Cash equivalents – Amounts primarily consist of Canadian agency and provincial securities investments. The fair value approximates the carrying value.

Commodity derivatives – The fair value of commodity derivatives is estimated using internal discounted cash flow calculations based upon forward curves and data obtained from independent third parties for contracts with similar terms or data obtained from counterparties to the agreements.

Debt – Devon’s debt instruments do not actively trade in an established market. The fair values of its debt are estimated based on rates available for debt with similar terms and maturity.

Item 2 . Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

The following discussion and analysis addresses material changes in our results of operations for the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2019 compared to previous periods and in our financial condition and liquidity since December 31, 2018. For information regarding our critical accounting policies and estimates, see our 2018 Annual Report on Form 10-K under “Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.”

Overview of 2019 Results

Key components of our sequential quarter financial performance are summarized below.

Net earnings (loss) from continuing operations Q2 2019 (4) — $ 166 Q1 2019 (4) — $ (346 ) +148 %
Net earnings (loss) from continuing operations per diluted share $ 0.40 $ (0.81 ) +149 %
Core earnings from continuing operations (1) $ 97 $ 139 - 30 %
Core earnings from continuing operations per diluted share (1) $ 0.23 $ 0.32 - 27 %
New Devon production (MBoe/d) (2) 321 308 +4 %
Realized price per Boe (3) $ 27.24 $ 28.58 - 5 %
Operating cash flow from continuing operations $ 488 $ 478 +2 %
Capitalized expenditures, including acquisitions $ 530 $ 481 +10 %
Cash and cash equivalents $ 3,470 $ 1,327 +161 %
Total debt - continuing operations $ 4,294 $ 4,292 +0 %

(1) Core earnings and core earnings per diluted share are financial measures not prepared in accordance with GAAP. For a description of core earnings and core earnings per diluted share, as well as reconciliations to the comparable GAAP measures, see “Non-GAAP Measures” in this Item 2.

(2) New Devon production excludes production associated with Barnett Shale assets as well as other divested U.S. non-core assets.

( 3 ) Excludes any impact of oil, gas and NGL derivatives.

( 4 ) Except for balance sheet amounts, which are presented as of period end.

We have made significant progress in our transition to “New Devon” - a U.S. oil growth company. We closed on the sale of our Canadian operations and are making progress in separating our Barnett Shale assets from the Company. We are using the proceeds from the separation of these assets to maintain target debt levels as well as return cash to our shareholders. As we continue to execute on our strategic objectives of funding high-return projects, generating free cash flow, maintaining financial strength and returning cash to shareholders, we have already achieved the following accomplishments in 2019.

• Closed on the sale of our Canadian business for $2.6 billion ($3.4 billion Canadian dollars) in June 2019.

• Increased Delaware Basin and Powder River Basin production 38% through the second quarter of 2019 compared to the fourth quarter of 2018.

• We retired $1.7 billion of senior notes, reducing annualized financing costs by $60 million.

• Initiated workforce and other cost reduction initiatives targeting $200 million of annualized savings by the end of 2019.

• Improved capital efficiency by 16% during the first six months of 2019 compared to the same period in 2018, driven primarily by drilling and completion efficiencies.

• Repurchased $4.4 billion of our $5.0 billion share repurchase program, representing a 24% reduction in outstanding shares since the program’s inception.

• Increased our quarterly common stock dividend 12.5% to $0.09 per share beginning in the second quarter of 2019.

We exited the second quarter of 2019 with liquidity comprised of $3.8 billion of cash, inclusive of $370 million of cash restricted for discontinued operations, and $3.0 billion of available credit under our Senior Credit Facility. After completing the $1.5 billion of early retirement of debt in July 2019, we have no outstanding debt maturities until 2025. We currently have approximately 75% of our expected oil and gas production protected with hedges for the remainder of 2019. These contracts consist of collars and swaps based off the WTI oil benchmark and the Henry Hub natural gas index. Additionally, we have entered into regional basis swaps in an effort to protect price realizations across our portfolio.

Realized oil, gas and NGL prices decreased primarily due to lower Henry Hub and Mont Belvieu index prices and widening natural gas differentials in the Permian Basin and STACK which are partially mitigated by our regional natural gas basis swaps. These decreases were slightly offset by a 9% improvement in the WTI index price.

Canada revenues increased in the second quarter of 2019 compared to the first quarter of 2019 due to increased realized prices partially offset by lower production volumes. Canadian production decreased during the second quarter of 2019 compared to the first quarter of 2019 primarily due to scheduled turnaround at the Jackfish 2 facility and recording four less days of production due to the divestiture close date.

In conjunction with the sale of our Canadian business during the second quarter of 2019, we recognized a pre-tax gain of $189 million as well as restructuring and transaction costs and related asset impairment charges of $273 million. For a discussion on discontinued operations, see Note 18 in “Part I. Financial Information – Item 1. Financial Statements” in this report.

Q2 2019 vs. Q2 2018

The graph below shows the change in net earnings from the three months ended June 30, 2018 to the three months ended June 30, 2019. The material changes are further discussed by category below. Further analysis of the upstream operations change has been provided within a supplemental section to our results of operations beginning on page 34.

  • Other includes asset dispositions, restructuring and transaction costs and other expenses.

Net earnings increased $830 million during the second quarter of 2019 compared to the second quarter of 2018. The increase primarily related to a $460 million increase in upstream operations, a $228 million change in other items and a $168 million increase in discontinued operations. Upstream operations increased primarily due to a $627 million gain on valuation changes and cash settlements for commodity derivatives, partially offset by a $229 million lower field price effect primarily related to our oil and NGL production. Other items increased primarily due to $154 million of asset impairments and $85 million of restructuring charges recognized in the second quarter of 2018. During the second quarter of 2019, earnings from discontinued operations increased due to recognizing a gain on the disposition of our Canadian business partially offset by related restructuring and asset impairment charges as further discussed in Note 18 in “Part I. Financial Information – Item 1. Financial Statements” in this report.

Net earnings increased $6 66 million during the six months ended 2019 compared to the same period in 2018. The increase primarily related to a $327 million decrease in financing costs, a $177 million change in other items, a $1 42 million increase in discontinued operations, a $72 million decrease in exploration expense , partially offset by a $127 million increase in DD&A. Financing costs de creased primarily from $312 million of early retirement costs associated with our $800 million debt retirement in 2018. Other items de creased due to $154 million of asset impairments recognized in 2018 and an approximately $45 million gain recognized during 2019. During the second quarter of 2019, earnings from discontinued operations increased due to recogniz ing a gain on the disposition of our Canadian business partially offset by related restructuring and asset impairment charges further discussed in Note 18 in “Part I. Financial Information – Item 1. Financial Statements” in this report . Exploration expense decreased due to unproved asset impairments of $61 million during 2018.

Table of Contents

LOE decreased for the three month and six month periods of 2019 compared to the same periods in 2018 primarily due to the impact of our U.S. non-core asset divestitures. Gathering, processing and transportation decreased in the three month and six month periods of 2019 compared to the same time periods of 2018 primarily due to the expiration of the EnLink Bridgeport minimum volume commitment at the end of 2018. Production taxes increased, on an absolute dollar basis and as a percentage of oil, gas and NGL sales, primarily due to the increase in Oklahoma severance tax rates that became effective in the third quarter of 2018.

Canadian production was lower during the second quarter of 2019 compared to the second quarter of 2018 as a result of less days of production due to the divestiture close date. Canadian production was lower during the six months ended 2019 compared to the six months ended 2018 primarily as a result of higher royalties.

In conjunction with the sale of our Canadian business during the second quarter of 2019, we recognized a pre-tax gain on the sale of our Canadian business of $189 million and restructuring and transaction costs and related asset impairment charges of $273 million.

Cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash at end of period $ 3,853 $ 1,525 $ 3,853 $ 1,525

Operating Cash Flow

As presented in the table above, net cash provided by operating activities continued to be a significant source of capital and liquidity. Operating cash flow nearly funded all of our capital expenditures during the first three months and six months of 2019. We utilized available cash balances and divestiture proceeds to supplement our operating cash flows and fund other investing and financing cash uses.

Divestitures of Property and Equipment

During the first six months of 2019, we sold non-core U.S. assets for approximately $339 million, net of customary purchase price adjustments. During the first six months of 2018, we sold non-core U.S. assets, including certain Barnett Shale assets, for $607 million. For additional information, please see Note 2 in “Part I. Financial Information – Item 1. Financial Statements” in this report.

Capital Expenditures and Acquisitions of Property and Equipment

The amounts in the table below reflect cash payments for capital expenditures, including cash paid for capital expenditures incurred in prior periods.

Three months ended June 30, — 2019 2018 Six months ended June 30, — 2019 2018
Delaware Basin $ 245 $ 157 $ 470 $ 332

Corporate and other 18 3 25 27
Total capital expenditures $ 494 $ 543 $ 996 $ 1,105
Acquisitions $ 13 $ 10 $ 23 $ 16

Capital expenditures consist of amounts related to our oil and gas exploration and development operations and other corporate activities. Our capital program is designed to operate within or near operating cash flow and maintain significant flexibility. Our capital investment program is driven by a disciplined allocation process focused on returns. Our capital expenditures are lower in 2019 primarily due to our decreased spending in the STACK, partially offset by increased capital investment in higher margin assets in the Delaware and Powder River Basin.

Debt Activity

During the first six months of 2019, our debt decreased $162 million due to the repayment of our 6.30% senior notes at maturity.

During the first six months of 2018, our debt decreased approximately $800 million due to completed tender offers of certain long-term debt. In conjunction with the tender offers, we recognized a $312 million loss on the early retirement of debt, including $304 million of cash retirement costs and fees. For additional information, see Note 13 in “Part I. Financial Information – Item 1. Financial Statements” in this report.

Cash Flows from Discontinued Operations

All cash flows in the following table relate to activities of our divested Canadian operations and our aggregate ownership interests in EnLink and the General Partner, which were divested in June 2019 and July 2018, respectively.

Foreign currency denominated intercompany loan activity during the first six months of 2019 and 2018 resulted in a realized loss of $31 million and $243 million, respectively, as a result of the strengthening of the U.S. dollar in relation to the Canadian dollar. There was an offset in the effect of exchange rate changes on cash line in the above table, resulting in no impact to the net change in cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash.

Table of Contents

O ther o perating cash flow from the first three and six months of 2019 decreased from the same periods in 2018 as a result of the divestiture of our aggregate ownership interests in EnLink and the General Partner in July 2018. In addition, operating cash flow was negatively affected in the first quarter of 2019 primarily due to realization impacts associated with the widening Canadian differentials in the fourth quarter of 2018.

On June 27, 2019, Devon completed the sale of all its operating assets and operations in Canada for proceeds of $2.6 billion. For additional information, see Note 2 and Note 18 in “Part I. Financial Information – Item 1. Financial Statements” in this report.

In July 2019, we retired $1.5 billion of senior notes prior to maturity. These senior notes were reclassified to liabilities associated with discontinued operations on the consolidated balance sheets. For additional information, see Note 18 in “Part I. Financial Information – Item 1. Financial Statements” in this report.

Devon received $134 million in distributions from EnLink and the General Partner during the first six months of 2018. Distributions to noncontrolling interests in the table above exclude the distributions EnLink and the General Partner paid to Devon, which have been eliminated in consolidation.

Liquidity

The business of exploring for, developing and producing oil and natural gas is capital intensive. Because oil, natural gas and NGL reserves are a depleting resource, we, like all upstream operators, must continually make capital investments to grow and even sustain production. Generally, our capital investments are focused on drilling and completing new wells and maintaining production from existing wells. At opportunistic times, we also acquire operations and properties from other operators or land owners to enhance our existing portfolio of assets.

Historically, our primary sources of capital funding and liquidity have been our operating cash flow, cash on hand and asset divestiture proceeds. Additionally, we maintain a commercial paper program, supported by our revolving line of credit, which can be accessed as needed to supplement operating cash flow and cash balances. If needed, we can also issue debt and equity securities, including through transactions under our shelf registration statement filed with the SEC. In February 2019, we announced plans to separate our Canadian and Barnett Shale assets and operations. In June 2019, we closed on the sale of our Canadian business and expect to complete the separation of our Barnet Shale assets by the end of 2019. We plan to use the proceeds from these transactions for debt repayments and return cash to shareholders. We estimate the combination of our sources of capital will continue to be adequate to fund our planned capital requirements as discussed in this section.

Operating Cash Flow

Key inputs into determining our planned capital investment is the amount of cash we hold and operating cash flow we expect to generate over the next one to three or more years. At the end of the second quarter of 2019, we held approximately $3.8 billion of cash, inclusive of $370 million of cash restricted for discontinued operations. Our operating cash flow forecasts are sensitive to many variables and include a measure of uncertainty as the actual results of these variables may differ from our expectations.

Commodity Prices – The most uncertain and volatile variables for our operating cash flow are the prices of the oil, gas and NGLs we produce and sell. Prices are determined primarily by prevailing market conditions. Regional and worldwide economic activity, weather and other substantially variable factors influence market conditions for these products. These factors, which are difficult to predict, create volatility in prices and are beyond our control.

To mitigate some of the risk inherent in prices, we utilize various derivative financial instruments to protect a portion of our production against downside price risk. We target hedging approximately 50% of our production in a manner that systematically places hedges for several quarters in advance, allowing us to maintain a disciplined risk management program as it relates to commodity price volatility. We supplement the systematic hedging program with discretionary hedges that take advantage of favorable market conditions. The key terms to our oil, gas and NGL derivative financial instruments as of June 30, 2019 are presented in Note 3 in “Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data” of this report.

Operating Expenses – Commodity prices can also affect our operating cash flow through an indirect effect on operating expenses. Significant commodity price decreases can lead to a decrease in drilling and development activities. As a result, the demand and cost for people, services, equipment and materials may also decrease, causing a positive impact on our cash flow as the prices paid for services and equipment decline. However, the inverse is also generally true during periods of rising commodity prices.

Table of Contents

For 2019, we are aggressively optimiz ing our cost structure in conjunction with our Canadian and planned Barnett Shale asset divestitures, as we focus on our remaining four U.S. oil plays, align our workforce with the retained business and reduce outstanding debt. We anticipate the planned $780 million reduction of annualized costs will occur over three years, with roughly 70% of the savings delivered by the end of 2019. Approximately 40% of the reduced costs relate to our capital programs and the remainder relates to our operating expenses, including G&A, interest expense and production expenses.

Credit Losses – Our operating cash flow is also exposed to credit risk in a variety of ways. This includes the credit risk related to customers who purchase our oil, gas and NGL production, the collection of receivables from our joint-interest partners for their proportionate share of expenditures made on projects we operate and counterparties to our derivative financial contracts. We utilize a variety of mechanisms to limit our exposure to the credit risks of our customers, partners and counterparties. Such mechanisms include, under certain conditions, requiring letters of credit, prepayments or collateral postings.

Divestitures of Property and Equipment

In February 2019, we announced the separation of our Canadian and Barnett Shale businesses. In June 2019, we completed the sale of our Canadian operations for $2.6 billion ($3.4 billion Canadian dollars) and are progressing on the separation of our Barnett Shale assets. For additional information, see Note 2 in “Part I. Financial Information – Item 1. Financial Statements” in this report.

Capital Expenditures

Our exploration and development budget for the remainder of 2019 is expected to range from $0.8 billion to $0.9 billion, excluding capital associated with our Barnett Shale assets.

Credit Availability

As of June 30, 2019, we had approximately $3.0 billion of available borrowings under our Senior Credit Facility. This credit facility supports our $3.0 billion of short-term credit under our commercial paper program. At June 30, 2019, there were no borrowings under our commercial paper program, and we were in compliance with the facility’s financial covenant. In connection with the closing of the sale of our Canadian business, we reallocated and terminated all Canadian commitments under the Senior Credit Facility in accordance with the terms of the credit agreement governing the Senior Credit Facility. The termination of the Canadian subfacility was effective as of June 27, 2019, and such termination did not decrease the $3.0 billion in total revolving commitments under, or otherwise modify the terms of, the Senior Credit Facility.

Debt Ratings

We receive debt ratings from the major ratings agencies in the U.S. In determining our debt ratings, the agencies consider a number of qualitative and quantitative items including, but not limited to, commodity pricing levels, our liquidity, asset quality, reserve mix, debt levels, cost structure, planned asset sales and production growth opportunities. Our credit rating from Standard and Poor’s Financial Services is BBB with a negative outlook. Our credit rating from Fitch is BBB+ with a negative outlook. Our credit rating from Moody’s Investor Service is Ba1 with a positive outlook. Any rating downgrades may result in additional letters of credit or cash collateral being posted under certain contractual arrangements.

Share Repurchase Program

In February 2019, our Board of Directors authorized an expansion of our pre-existing share repurchase program by an additional $1.0 billion to $5.0 billion. The share repurchase program expires December 31, 2019. Through July 31, 2019, we had executed $4.4 billion of the authorized program.

Critical Accounting Estimates

On June 27, 2019 , we divested all of our Canadian operating assets. Our foreign earnings have not been considered indefinitely reinvested since the announcement of the plan to separate the assets in the first quarter of 2019. For additional information see Note 7 in “Part I. Financial Information – Item 1. Financial Statements” in this report .

For additional information regarding our critical accounting policies and estimates, see our 2018 Annual Report on Form 10-K .

Non-GAAP Measures

We make reference to “core earnings (loss) attributable to Devon” and “core earnings (loss) per share attributable to Devon” in “Overview of 2019 Results” in this Item 2 that are not required by or presented in accordance with GAAP. These non-GAAP measures are not alternatives to GAAP measures and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our results reported under GAAP. Core earnings (loss) attributable to Devon, as well as the per share amount, represent net earnings excluding certain noncash and other items that are typically excluded by securities analysts in their published estimates of our financial results. For more information on the results of discontinued operations for our Canadian operations and for EnLink and the General Partner, see Note 18 in “Part I. Financial Information – Item 1. Financial Statements” in this report. Our non-GAAP measures are typically used as a quarterly performance measure. Amounts excluded relate to asset dispositions, noncash asset impairments (including noncash unproved asset impairments), deferred tax asset valuation allowance, costs associated with early retirement of debt, fair value changes in derivative financial instruments and foreign currency, settlements related to minimum volume contract commitments, restructuring and transaction costs associated with the workforce reductions in 2019 and 2018 and restructuring and transaction costs associated with the divestment of our Canadian operations in 2019.

We believe these non-GAAP measures facilitate comparisons of our performance to earnings estimates published by securities analysts. We also believe these non-GAAP measures can facilitate comparisons of our performance between periods and to the performance of our peers.

Below are reconciliations of our core earnings and core earnings per share attributable to Devon to their comparable GAAP measures.

EBITDAX and Field-Level Cash Margin

To assess the performance of our assets, we use EBITDAX and Field-Level Cash Margin. We compute EBITDAX as net earnings from continuing operations before income tax expense; financing costs, net; exploration expenses; depreciation, depletion and amortization; asset impairments; asset disposition gains and losses; non-cash share-based compensation; non-cash valuation changes for derivatives and financial instruments; restructuring and transaction costs; accretion on discounted liabilities; and other items not related to our normal operations. Field-Level Cash Margin is computed as oil, gas and NGL revenues less production expenses. Production expenses consist of lease operating, gathering, processing and transportation expenses, as well as production and property taxes.

We exclude financing costs from EBITDAX to assess our operating results without regard to our financing methods or capital structure. Exploration expenses and asset disposition gains and losses are excluded from EBITDAX because they are not indicators of operating efficiency for a given reporting period. DD&A and impairments are excluded from EBITDAX because capital expenditures are evaluated at the time capital costs are incurred. We exclude share-based compensation, valuation changes, restructuring and transaction costs, accretion on discounted liabilities and other items from EBITDAX because they are not considered a measure of asset operating performance.

We believe EBITDAX and Field-Level Cash Margin provide information useful in assessing our operating and financial performance across periods. EBITDAX and Field-Level Cash Margin as defined by Devon may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies and should be considered in conjunction with net earnings from continuing operations.

Below are reconciliations of net earnings from continuing operations to EBITDAX and a further reconciliation to Field-Level Cash Margin. We have excluded the EBITDAX and Field-Level Cash Margin for our U.S. divested assets, Canada (which has been reclassified as discontinued operations on our consolidated comprehensive statements of earnings) and the Barnett Shale to compute Adjusted EBITDAX and Adjusted Field-Level Cash Margin for New Devon. We use Adjusted EBITDAX and Adjusted Field-Level Cash Margin to assess the performance of our portfolio of upstream assets on a “same-store” basis across periods.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Commodity Price Risk

As of June 30, 2019, we have commodity derivatives that pertain to a portion of our estimated production for the last six months of 2019, as well as for 2020. The key terms to our open oil, gas and NGL derivative financial instruments are presented in Note 3 in “Part I. Financial Information – Item 1. Financial Statements” in this report.

The fair values of our commodity derivatives are largely determined by the forward curves of the relevant price indices. At June 30, 2019, a 10% change in the forward curves associated with our commodity derivative instruments would have changed our net positions by approximately $180 million.

Interest Rate Risk

As of June 30, 2019, we had total debt of $5.8 billion. All of this debt was based on fixed interest rates averaging 5.4%. Total debt is inclusive of the $1.5 billion of debt that was reclassified to liabilities associated with discontinued operations at June 30, 2019 and retired early in July 2019. See Note 18 in “Part I. Financial Information – Item 1. Financial Statements” in this report for additional information.

Foreign Currency Risk

Devon has certain Canadian dollar obligations resulting from its divestment of its Canadian operations which are to be paid with the cash restricted for discontinued operations. These balances are remeasured using the applicable exchange rate as of the end of the reporting period. A 10% unfavorable change in the Canadian-to-U.S. dollar exchange rate would not have materially impacted our June 30, 2019 balance sheet for these items. See Note 18 in “Part I. Financial Information – Item 1. Financial Statements” in this report for additional information.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We have established disclosure controls and procedures to ensure that material information relating to Devon, including its consolidated subsidiaries, is made known to the officers who certify Devon’s financial reports and to other members of senior management and the Board of Directors.

Based on their evaluation, our principal executive and principal financial officers have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) were effective as of June 30, 2019 to ensure that the information required to be disclosed by Devon in the reports that it files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC rules and forms.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

We implemented internal controls to ensure we adequately evaluated our contracts and properly assessed the impact of the new lease accounting standard on our financial statements to facilitate its adoption in the first quarter of 2019. There were no significant changes to our internal control over financial reporting due to the adoption of the new lease accounting standard. There were no other changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during our most recent fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II. Other Information

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

We are involved in various legal proceedings incidental to our business. However, to our knowledge as of the date of this report, there were no material pending legal proceedings to which we are a party or to which any of our property is subject.

On April 4, 2019, Devon Energy Production Company, L.P., a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (“DEPCO”), agreed to settle its previously disclosed negotiations with the EPA relating to certain alleged Clean Air Act violations at its Beaver Creek Gas Plant located near Riverton, Wyoming by executing an agreed order with the EPA. The order included a penalty of $150,000 and was approved by the regional EPA judicial officer on June 12, 2019. Moreover, in connection with the resolution of this matter with the EPA, DEPCO entered into a consent decree on May 9, 2019 with respect to the same matter with the Wyoming Department of Environmental Quality, which also included a separate penalty of $150,000.
