INFORMATION REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This report includes “forward-looking statements” as defined by the SEC. Such statements include those concerning strategic plans, our expectations and objectives for future operations, as well as other future events or conditions, and are often identified by use of the words and phrases “expects,” “believes,” “will,” “would,” “could,” “continue,” “may,” “aims,” “likely to be,” “intends,” “forecasts,” “projections,” “estimates,” “plans,” “expectations,” “targets,” “opportunities,” “potential,” “anticipates,” “outlook” and other similar terminology. All statements, other than statements of historical facts, included in this report that address activities, events or developments that Devon expects, believes or anticipates will or may occur in the future are forward-looking statements. Such statements are subject to a number of assumptions, risks and uncertainties, many of which are beyond our control. Consequently, actual future results could differ materially from our expectations due to a number of factors, including, but not limited to those, identified below.

The COVID-19 pandemic and its related repercussions have created significant volatility, uncertainty and turmoil in the global economy and our industry. This turmoil has included an unprecedented supply-and-demand imbalance for oil and other commodities, resulting in a swift and material decline in commodity prices in early 2020. Our future actual results could differ materially from the forward-looking statements in this report due to the COVID-19 pandemic and related impacts, including, among other things: contributing to a sustained or further deterioration in commodity prices; causing takeaway capacity constraints for production, resulting in production shut-ins and additional downward pressure on impacted regional pricing differentials; limiting our ability to access sources of capital due to disruptions in financial markets; increasing the risk of a downgrade from credit rating agencies; exacerbating counterparty credit risks and the risk of supply chain interruptions; and increasing the risk of operational disruptions due to social distancing measures and other changes to business practices.

In addition to the risks associated with the COVID-19 pandemic and its related impacts, our actual future results could differ materially from our expectations due to other factors, including, among other things:

•

the volatility of oil, gas and NGL prices;

•

uncertainties inherent in estimating oil, gas and NGL reserves;

•

the extent to which we are successful in acquiring and discovering additional reserves;

•

the uncertainties, costs and risks involved in our operations, including as a result of employee misconduct;

•

regulatory restrictions, compliance costs and other risks relating to governmental regulation, including with respect to environmental matters;

•

risks related to regulatory, social and market efforts to address climate change;

•

risks related to our hedging activities;

•

counterparty credit risks;

•

risks relating to our indebtedness;

•

cyberattack risks;

•

our limited control over third parties who operate some of our oil and gas properties;

•

midstream capacity constraints and potential interruptions in production;

•

the extent to which insurance covers any losses we may experience;

•

competition for assets, materials, people and capital;

•

risks related to investors attempting to effect change;

•

our ability to successfully complete mergers, acquisitions and divestitures; and

•

any of the other risks and uncertainties discussed in this report, our 2019 Annual Report on Form 10-K and our other filings with the SEC.

All subsequent written and oral forward-looking statements attributable to Devon, or persons acting on its behalf, are expressly qualified in their entirety by the cautionary statements above. We assume no duty to update or revise our forward-looking statements based on new information, future events or otherwise.

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 2019 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, 2020 and 2019 and Devon’s financial position as of June 30, 2020. As further discussed in Note 17, Devon reached an agreement to sell its Barnett Shale assets in December 2019, which was amended in April 2020, and sold its Canadian operations in the second quarter of 2019. Activity relating to Devon’s Barnett Shale assets, inclusive of properties divested as partial sales of the Barnett Shale common operating field in previous reporting periods located primarily in Johnson and Wise counties, Texas, and its Canadian operations are classified as discontinued operations within Devon’s consolidated statements of comprehensive earnings and consolidated statements of cash flows. The associated assets and liabilities of Devon’s Barnett Shale assets and Canadian operations are presented as assets and liabilities associated with discontinued operations on the consolidated balance sheets.

During the fourth quarter of 2019, Devon entered into an agreement to form Cotton Draw Midstream, L.L.C. (“CDM”), a joint-venture entity in the Delaware Basin with an affiliate of QL Capital Partners, LP (“QLCP”). Devon holds a controlling interest in CDM and the portions of CDM’s net earnings and equity not attributable to Devon’s controlling interest are shown separately as noncontrolling interests in the accompanying consolidated statements of comprehensive earnings and consolidated balance sheets. CDM is considered a VIE to Devon. The assets of CDM cannot be used by Devon for general corporate purposes and are included in and disclosed parenthetically on Devon's consolidated balance sheets. The carrying amount of liabilities related to CDM for which the creditors do not have recourse to Devon's assets are also included in, and disclosed parenthetically, on Devon's consolidated balance sheets if material.

Recently Adopted Accounting Standards

In 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses. This ASU changes the impairment model for trade receivables, held-to-maturity debt securities, net investments in leases, loans and other financial assets measured at amortized cost from the current “incurred loss” model to a new forward-looking “expected loss” model. Devon adopted this ASU in the first quarter of 2020 using the modified retrospective approach. Devon assesses credit risk by class of account type which includes cash equivalents and oil and gas, marketing and midstream, joint interest and other accounts receivable. These classes are then further evaluated using a probability weighted scenario assessment based on historical losses and a probability of future default. This evaluation is supported by an assessment of risk factors such as the age of receivable, current macro-economic conditions, credit rating of the counterparty and our historical loss rate. This adoption did not have a material impact on Devon’s consolidated financial statements.

2.Divestitures

Discontinued Operations – Upstream Assets

In June 2019, Devon completed the sale of substantially all of its oil and gas 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 $223 million ($425 million, net of tax, primarily due to a significant deferred tax benefit) in 2019. Additional information can be found in Note 17.

Devon announced the sale of its Barnett Shale assets to BKV in December 2019 and subsequently amended the agreement in April 2020. Under the amended terms, Devon has agreed to sell its Barnett Shale assets for $570 million in cash, before purchase price adjustments, at closing, which is scheduled for October 1, 2020. Under the terms of the agreement, Devon received deposit funds of $170 million in April 2020. Devon recognized a $748 million asset impairment related to these assets in the fourth quarter of 2019 and an incremental $179 million asset impairment during the first quarter of 2020. Additional information can be found in Note 17.

Continuing Operations – Upstream Assets

During the first quarter of 2020, Devon entered into a farmout agreement in which the third party to the agreement can participate in the development of certain Devon-owned non-operated interests in the Delaware Basin. Under the agreement, Devon will periodically transfer working interests to the third party, who will then fund its share of operating and development costs. Once certain investment hurdles are met, a portion of the working interest held by the third party will revert back to Devon. No material activity occurred during the first six months of 2020.

In the first quarter of 2019, Devon received proceeds of approximately $300 million and recognized a $45 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.

3.Derivative Financial 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, 2020, 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. As of June 30, 2020, Devon did not hold any cash collateral of its counterparties.

Proved Oil and Gas and Other Asset Impairments

Reduced demand from the COVID-19 pandemic caused an unprecedented downturn in the price of oil. As a result, Devon reduced planned 2020 capital investment by 45%. With materially lower commodity prices and reduced near-term investment, Devon assessed all of its oil and gas fields for impairment as of March 31, 2020. For impairment determinations, Devon historically utilized NYMEX forward strip prices for the first five years and applied internally generated price forecasts for subsequent years. In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, the NYMEX forward market became highly illiquid as evidenced by materially reduced trading volumes for periods beyond 2021. Therefore, Devon supplemented the NYMEX forward strip prices with price forecasts published by reputable investment banks and reservoir engineering firms to estimate future revenues as of March 31, 2020. To measure indicated impairments, Devon used a market-based weighted-average cost of capital to discount the future net cash flows. These inputs are categorized as level 3 in the fair value hierarchy.

Devon recognized approximately $2.7 billion of proved asset impairments during the first quarter of 2020. These impairments related to the Anadarko Basin and Rockies fields in which the cost basis included acquisitions completed in 2016 and 2015, respectively, when commodity prices were much higher than they are today. During the first quarter of 2020, Devon recognized $2 million of product line fill impairments.

Unproved Impairments

Due to the downturn in the commodity price environment and reduced near-term investment as discussed above, Devon also recognized $113 million of unproved impairments during the first six months of 2020, primarily in the Rockies field.

6.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 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.

The following table summarizes Devon’s restructuring liabilities.

7.Income Taxes

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.

The Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (“CARES Act”) became law on March 27, 2020. The CARES Act allows net operating losses generated in taxable years beginning after December 31, 2017 and before January 1, 2021 to be carried back five years to offset taxable income and generate a refund. Devon intends to carry net operating losses generated in 2019 and 2020 back to 2014 and 2015, respectively. As a result, Devon recorded a $96 million income tax benefit through the first six months of 2020, and expects to record an additional $2 million income tax benefit by the end of the year.

On July 28, 2020, the Department of Treasury issued final regulations regarding the provision of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act that limits the deduction for business interest expense. Upon preliminary review of the regulations, there are provisions that may have a favorable impact to Devon. Upon completing a full review of the final regulations, Devon expects to record the effects of this tax legislation in the third quarter of 2020.

Throughout 2019, Devon maintained a valuation allowance against certain deferred tax assets, including certain tax credits and state net operating losses. Since then, reduced demand from the COVID-19 pandemic has caused an unprecedented downturn in the commodity price environment. As a result, Devon recorded significant impairments during the first quarter of 2020 and is now in a net deferred tax asset position. Devon reassessed its position and recorded a 100% valuation allowance against all net deferred tax assets as of March 31, 2020 and remains in a full valuation allowance position as of June 30, 2020.

Included in “other” in the table above is the impact of increasing Devon’s unrecognized tax benefits by approximately $34 million during the first quarter of 2020.

For additional information, see Note 2.

16.	Stockholders’ Equity

Share Repurchase Programs

In March 2018, Devon announced a $1.0 billion share repurchase program. In June 2018, Devon announced the expansion of this program to $4.0 billion. In February 2019, Devon announced a further expansion to $5.0 billion with a December 31, 2019 expiration date. In December 2019, Devon announced a new $1.0 billion share repurchase program with a December 31, 2020 expiration date. Under the new program, $800 million of the $1.0 billion authorization is conditioned upon the closing of the Barnett Shale divestiture for cash proceeds of at least $725 million. As the pricing and economic environment has changed due to the COVID-19 pandemic and demand challenges for commodities, Devon has temporarily suspended its share repurchase program to preserve liquidity.

The table below provides information regarding purchases of Devon’s common stock that were made under the respective share repurchase programs (shares in thousands).

On August 4, 2020, our Board of Directors approved a $0.26 per share (approximately $100 million total) special dividend to be payable as of October 1, 2020, to holders of record as of August 14, 2020.

17.	Discontinued Operations and Assets Held For Sale

Barnett Shale

In 2019, Devon announced that it had entered into an agreement to sell its Barnett Shale assets to BKV and subsequently amended the agreement in April 2020. Under the amended terms, Devon has agreed to sell its Barnett Shale assets for $570 million in cash, before purchase price adjustments, at closing, which is scheduled for October 1, 2020. Additionally, the agreement provides for contingent earnout payments to Devon of up to $260 million based upon future commodity prices, with upside participation beginning at a $2.75 Henry Hub natural gas price or a $50 WTI oil price. The contingent payment period commences on January 1, 2021 and has a term of four years. Under the terms of the agreement, Devon received deposit funds of $170 million in April 2020. The deposit is being held by Devon pursuant to the terms of the sale agreement, which only requires Devon to return such funds to BKV in the event the transaction does not close as a result of Devon’s breach of its closing obligations. The deposit is classified as current liabilities associated with discontinued operations on Devon’s consolidated balance sheets.

In connection with the announced sale of its Barnett Shale assets, approximately $88 million of the U.S. reporting unit goodwill was allocated to the Barnett Shale assets. Additionally, Devon ceased depreciation for all property, plant and equipment classified as assets held for sale on the date the sales agreement was approved by the Board of Directors. Devon also recognized a $748 million asset impairment in the fourth quarter of 2019 related to these assets, primarily due to the difference between the net carrying value and the purchase price, net of estimated customary purchase price adjustments. During the first quarter of 2020, Devon adjusted the estimated impairment $179 million, primarily due to the amended agreement terms. The valuation of the future contingent earnout payments included in the March 31, 2020 Barnett Shale impairment computation was $41 million. The value was derived utilizing a Monte Carlo valuation model and qualifies as a level 3 fair value measurement.

As of June 30, 2020, Devon has restricted approximately $20 million of cash to fund obligations in connection with the abandonment of certain gas processing contracts related to divestitures of other Barnett Shale assets that occurred in 2018 and is classified as cash restricted for discontinued operations on the consolidated balance sheets. Cash payments for these charges total approximately $2 million per quarter.

Canada

In the second quarter of 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 $223 million ($425 million net of tax, primarily due to a significant deferred tax benefit) in 2019. Current (cash) income and withholding taxes associated with the Canadian business were

approximately $175 million and were paid in the first half of 2020. The disposition of substantially all of Devon’s Canadian oil and gas 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.

During the third quarter of 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 recognized a charge on the early retirement of these notes consisting of $52 million in cash retirement costs and $6 million of noncash charges.

As of June 30, 2020, Devon has restricted approximately $175 million of cash to fund obligations retained related to the Canadian business and is classified as cash restricted for discontinued operations on the consolidated balance sheets. The remaining obligations consist of a firm transportation agreement and office leases. Cash payments for these charges total approximately $6 million per quarter.

The following table presents the amounts reported in the consolidated statements of comprehensive earnings as discontinued operations.

18.	Commitments and Contingencies

Devon is party to various legal actions arising in the normal course of business. Matters that are probable of an 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 and Other 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 water bodies located in the coastal zone of Louisiana. The plaintiffs’ claims against Devon relate primarily to the operations of several of Devon’s corporate predecessors. 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.

Various municipalities and other governmental and private parties in California have filed legal proceedings against certain oil and gas companies, including Devon, seeking relief to abate alleged impacts of climate change. These proceedings include far-reaching claims for monetary damages and injunctive relief. Although Devon cannot predict the ultimate outcome of these matters, Devon believes these claims to be baseless and intends to vigorously defend against the proceedings.

19.	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, 2020 and December 31, 2019, as applicable. Therefore, such financial assets and liabilities are not presented in the following table. Additionally, information regarding the fair values of oil and gas assets is provided in Note 5.

							Fair Value Measurements Using:

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

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 consistently trade actively in an established market. The fair values of its debt are estimated based on rates available for debt with similar terms and maturity when active trading is not available.

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, 2020 compared to previous periods and in our financial condition and liquidity since December 31, 2019. For information regarding our critical accounting policies and estimates, see our 2019 Annual Report on Form 10-K under “Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.”

COVID – 19

A novel strain of coronavirus, SARS-CoV-2, causing a disease referred to as COVID-19, was reported to have surfaced in China in late 2019 and has subsequently spread to multiple countries worldwide, resulting in a global pandemic and health crisis. Devon began actively monitoring COVID-19 in January 2020 and formally established a COVID-19 cross-functional planning team at the beginning of March. The COVID-19 team is focused on two key priorities: the health and safety of our employees and contractors and the uninterrupted operation of our business.

•

Health and safety – The COVID-19 team has developed and implemented a number of safety measures, which have successfully kept our workforce healthy and safe. The COVID-19 team has established an informational campaign to provide employees an understanding of the virus risk factors and safety measures, as well as timely updates from governmental stay-at-home regulations. Expectations have also been set for employees to communicate immediately if they, or someone they have been in contact with, has experienced symptoms or tested positive for COVID-19. Other measures have included closing all of Devon’s office buildings and locations to the public, implementing social distancing and encouraging employees to work from home. Beginning in late March, more than 90% of the workforce assigned to Devon’s Oklahoma City Headquarters office were primarily working from home until the vast majority returned to the office late in the second quarter. The COVID-19 team also strongly encourages employees to wear masks, reinforces social distancing measures and continues to perform targeted and routine intensive and deep cleaning of all Devon office locations.

•

Uninterrupted operation of our business – Beyond workforce safety measures, the COVID-19 team has worked with government officials to ensure our business continues to be deemed an essential business or infrastructure. The COVID-19 team has ensured technology and resources are available for employees to execute their job duties while working from home and implemented further social distancing and contactless initiatives in our oil and gas field operations. The collective efforts of our COVID-19 team and our entire workforce have enabled us to avoid the need to implement COVID-19 containment or mitigation measures, which would require closure or suspension of any of our operations.

This outbreak and the related responses of governmental authorities and others to limit the spread of the virus have significantly reduced global economic activity, resulting in an unprecedented decline in the demand for oil and other commodities. This supply-and-demand imbalance was exacerbated by uncertainty regarding the future global supply of oil due to disputes between Russia and the members of OPEC in March 2020. These factors caused a swift and material deterioration in commodity prices in early 2020, with NYMEX WTI oil prices falling from a high of over $60/Bbl at the beginning of the year to below $20/Bbl in April 2020. By the end of the second quarter of 2020, NYMEX WTI oil prices recovered to approximately $40/Bbl.

Despite the current economic challenges, we remain focused on building economic value by executing on our strategic priorities of maximizing free cash flow, maintaining low leverage, delivering cash returns to our shareholders and pursuing ESG excellence. Our recent performance highlights for these priorities include the following items:

•

Efficiency gains drove second quarter capital expenditures 10% below our plan, which had already been reduced 45% in response to COVID-19 effects on commodity benchmark prices

•

Second-quarter oil production totaled 153 MBbls/d, exceeding our plan by 2%

•

Operating costs continued to decline in the second quarter led by 17% and 23% decreases from the first quarter for production and administrative expenses, respectively

•

Initiatives are underway to deliver $300 million of sustainable, annualized cash cost reductions by year-end 2020

•

Exited the second-quarter with $4.7 billion of liquidity, including $1.7 billion of cash, with no near-term debt maturities

•

Accelerating Barnett Shale closing to October 1, 2020, from previously scheduled date of December 31, 2020

•

Board of Directors approved a $0.26 per share (approximately $100 million total) special dividend payable as of October 1, 2020

•

Board of Directors approved a $1.5 billion debt repurchase plan

Overview of 2020 Results

We operate under a disciplined returns-driven strategy focused on delivering strong operational results, financial strength and value to our shareholders and continuing our commitment to environmental, social and governance excellence, which provides us with a strong foundation to grow returns, margin and profitability. We continue to execute on our strategy and navigate through the challenged economic environment by protecting our financial strength, tailoring our capital investment to market conditions, improving our cash cost structure and preserving operational continuity.

Trends of our quarterly earnings, operating cash flow, EBITDAX and capital expenditures are shown below. The quarterly earnings chart presents amounts pertaining to both Devon’s continuing and discontinuing operations. The quarterly cash flow chart presents amounts pertaining to Devon’s continuing operations. “Core earnings” and “EBITDAX” are financial measures not prepared in accordance with GAAP. For a description of these measures, including reconciliations to the comparable GAAP measures, see “Non-GAAP Measures” in this Item 2.

Our net earnings in recent quarters have been significantly impacted by divestiture transactions, asset impairments and temporary, noncash adjustments to the value of our commodity hedges. Net earnings in the second quarter of 2020 included a $0.5 billion hedge valuation loss, net of tax. Net earnings in the first quarter of 2020 included $2.3 billion of asset impairments on our proved and unproved properties and a $0.5 billion hedge valuation gain, both net of taxes. Net earnings in the fourth quarter of 2019 included $0.6 billion of asset impairments and a $0.1 billion hedge valuation loss, both net of taxes. Net earnings in the second quarter of 2019 included $0.3 billion for net after-tax gains and charges related to our Canadian disposition. Excluding these amounts, our core earnings have been more stable over recent quarters but continue to be heavily influenced by commodity prices.

Despite our portfolio enhancements, aggressive cost reductions and operational advancements, our financial results were challenged by commodity prices and deterioration of the macro-economic environment resulting from the unprecedented COVID-19 pandemic. Our earnings declined from the first quarter of 2020 to the second quarter of 2020 due to a decrease in overall commodity prices. Led by a 39% decrease in WTI from the first quarter of 2020 to the second quarter of 2020, our unhedged combined realized price dropped 44%. In response to this commodity price environment, we were able to reduce our production and general and administrative costs 19% compared to the first quarter of 2020.

Like earnings, our operating cash flow is sensitive to volatile commodity prices. EBITDAX, which excludes financial amounts related to discontinued operations, and operating cash flows were significantly lower during the second quarter of 2020 resulting from impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic and declines in commodity prices. As operating cash flow has declined, we have reduced our 2020 capital development plans approximately $800 million, or 45% compared to the original capital budget.

We exited the second quarter of 2020 with $4.7 billion of liquidity comprised of $1.7 billion of cash, inclusive of $195 million of cash restricted for discontinued operations, and $3.0 billion of available credit under our Senior Credit Facility. We have $4.3 billion of debt outstanding with no maturities until the end of 2025. We currently have approximately 95% of our expected oil production and approximately 45% of our expected gas production protected with hedges for the remainder of 2020. 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.

From the first quarter of 2020 to the second quarter of 2020, a decrease in volumes contributed to a $51 million decrease in earnings. Due to the challenged macro-economic environment, planned 2020 capital expenditures were reduced by 45% and certain marginal wells were shut-in during the second quarter resulting in lower volumes. The majority of the shut-in production was restored by the end of the second quarter.

In response to the challenged current macro-economic environment and the timing of completions, we expect volumes to continue to decrease for the second half of 2020. Volumes for the third quarter are expected to range from approximately 301 to 318 MBoe/d and improve in the fourth quarter due to timing of completions.

From the first quarter of 2020 to the second quarter of 2020, field prices contributed to a $332 million decrease in earnings. Unhedged realized oil and NGL prices decreased primarily due to lower WTI and Mont Belvieu index prices. These decreases were partially offset by favorable hedge cash settlements across each of our products.

As prices deteriorated towards the end of the first quarter from the COVID-19 pandemic, we added additional oil and gas hedges for the remainder of 2020 and the year 2021. We currently have approximately 95% of our remaining 2020 oil production hedged with an average floor price of $41/Bbl and approximately 45% of our remaining 2020 gas production hedged with an average floor price of $2.20/Mcf. Additionally, we continue to build our 2021 hedge positions at market prices.

LOE and gathering, processing and transportation costs decreased in the second quarter due to the challenged macro-economic environment which resulted in lower activity levels. Additionally, production taxes decreased due to lower oil, gas and NGL sales.

Field-Level Cash Margin

The table below presents the field-level cash margin for each of our operating areas. Field-level cash margin is computed as oil, gas and NGL sales less production expenses and is not prepared in accordance with GAAP. A reconciliation to the comparable GAAP measures is found in “Non-GAAP Measures” in this Item 2. The changes in production volumes, field prices and production expenses, shown above, had the following impact on our field-level cash margins by asset.

	Q2 2020		$ per BOE		Q1 2020		$ per BOE
Field-level cash margin (non-GAAP)
Delaware Basin	$	106	$	7.81	$	260	$	17.72
Powder River Basin		20	$	9.09		54	$	20.48
Eagle Ford		22	$	4.50		87	$	19.20

Other		—	$	0.10		14	$	15.55
Total	$	161	$	5.45	$	489	$	15.41

Due to lower commodity benchmark prices, our unhedged realized price per Boe dropped 44% from the first quarter to the second quarter of 2020. These lower realizations dramatically reduced our field-level cash margin and other performance measures. Consequently, we have initiatives underway to reduce annualized expenses $300 million by the end of 2020. These initiatives include decreasing annualized production expenses $125 million and general and administrative expenses $100 million. These savings will be generated from adjustments to our workforce and production operations, as well as expiries of minimum volume commitments. We also intend to reduce net financing costs $75 million upon repurchasing up to $1.5 billion of debt as authorized by our Board of Directors.

From the second quarter of 2019 to the second quarter of 2020, an increase in higher-margin oil volumes contributed to a $34 million increase in earnings. From the six months ended 2019 to the six months ended 2020, an increase in volumes contributed to a $166 million increase in earnings. Continued development in the Delaware Basin and Powder River Basin has resulted in higher production volumes during 2020 compared to 2019. These increases were partially offset by significantly lower activity in the Anadarko Basin.

Based upon composition of our NGL barrel.

From the second quarter of 2019 to the second quarter of 2020, field prices contributed to a $546 million decrease in earnings. From the six months ended 2019 to the six months ended 2020, field prices contributed to a $790 million decrease in earnings. Unhedged realized oil, gas and NGL prices decreased primarily due to lower WTI, Henry Hub and Mont Belvieu index prices. These decreases were partially offset by favorable hedge cash settlements across each of our products.

An increase in gathering, processing and transportation costs from the six months ended 2019 to the six months ended 2020 was due to higher volumes and the Anadarko minimum volume commitments which are set to expire at the end of 2020. These increases were offset by lower production taxes resulting from lower oil, gas and NGL sales.

Marketing and midstream operations decreased approximately $58 million for the first six months ended 2020 compared to the first six months ended 2019 primarily due to lower commodity prices resulting from the challenged macro-economic environment in 2020, as well as downstream product inventory impairments of $17 million recognized in the first quarter of 2020.

Exploration expenses increased approximately $113 million for the first six months ended 2020 compared to the first six months ended 2019 primarily due to $113 million in unproved asset impairments in the first six months of 2020. For additional information, see Note 5 in “Part I. Financial Information – Item 1. Financial Statements” in this report.

Devon recognized $63 million in restructuring expenses during the first six months of 2019 due to workforce reductions and other initiatives designed to enhance its operational focus and cost structure.

Q2 2020 vs. Q1 2020

Net earnings (loss) from discontinued operations, net of tax increased $134 million from the first quarter of 2020 to the second quarter of 2020. During the first quarter of 2020, we recognized $179 million in asset impairments on our Barnett Shale assets due to the amended terms of the Barnett Shale sales agreement. This increase in earnings was partially offset by lower gas and NGL sales in the second quarter resulting from lower commodity prices.

Q2 2020 vs. Q2 2019

Net earnings from discontinued operations, net of tax decreased $335 million from the second quarter of 2019 to the second quarter of 2020. Net earnings decreased primarily due to the divestment of Devon’s Canadian operations during the second quarter of 2019.

June 30, 2020 YTD vs. June 30, 2019 YTD

Net earnings (loss) from discontinued operations, net of tax decreased $521 million for the first six months ended June 30, 2020 compared to the first six months ended June 30, 2019. Net earnings decreased primarily due to the divestment of Devon’s Canadian operations during the second quarter of 2019, as well as lower revenues resulting from the challenged macro-economic environment in 2020. Additionally, 2020 includes $179 million in incremental asset impairments to our Barnett Shale assets related to the amended terms of the Barnett Shale sales agreement during the first quarter of 2020.

Operating Cash Flow

Despite our portfolio enhancements, aggressive cost reductions and operational advancements, our financial results were challenged by commodity prices and deterioration of the macro-economic environment resulting from the unprecedented COVID-19 pandemic. As presented in the table above, net cash provided by operating activities continued to be a significant source of capital and liquidity. During the six months ended June 30, 2020, our operating cash flow funded approximately 85% of our capital expenditures and dividends.

Divestitures of Property and Equipment

During the first six months of 2019, we sold non-core U.S. assets for approximately $338 million, net of customary purchase price adjustments. 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.

Table of Contents

Capital expenditures consist primarily of amounts related to our oil and gas exploration and development operations, midstream operations and other corporate activities. Our capital program is designed to operate within or near operating cash flow. This is evidenced by our operating cash flow funding approximately 90% of our capital expenditures for the six months ended June 30, 2020. Our capital investment program is driven by a disciplined allocation process focused on returns. Our capital expenditures are lower in 2020 primarily due to our decreased spending in the Anadarko Basin, partially offset by increased capital investment in the Powder River Basin and Eagle Ford. In response to the current macro-economic environment, we reduced our 2020 capital expenditures outlook by approximately $800 million, or 45% compared to the original capital budget.

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.

Shareholder Distributions and Stock Activity

The following table summarizes our common stock dividends during the first six months of 2020 and 2019. Beginning with the second quarter of 2020, we increased our quarterly dividend 22%, to $0.11 per share. We previously increased our quarterly dividend to $0.09 per share commencing with the second quarter of 2019.

Operating cash flows during the first six months of 2020 include $173 million of cash income and withholding tax payments in Canada related to divestitures and was also negatively impacted by lower commodity prices. Foreign currency denominated intercompany loan activity resulted in a realized loss of $32 million in the second quarter of 2019 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 table above, resulting in no impact to the net change in cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash. Investing cash flows during the first six months of 2020 include $170 million in deposit funds from BKV due to the amended terms on the sale of our Barnett Shale assets, which is scheduled to close on October 1, 2020. On June 27, 2019, we completed the sale of our Canadian business for proceeds of $2.6 billion. See Note 2 and Note 17 in “Part I. Financial Information – Item 1. Financial Statements” in this report for additional details on these divestitures.

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. 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.

Beginning in the first quarter of 2020, the macro-economic environment deteriorated significantly and has created extreme volatility primarily due to concerns arising from the COVID-19 pandemic. In response to this environment, we will continue to maintain flexibility within our capital program as we continue to focus on protecting our financial strength and maintaining operational continuity. Additionally, we have initiatives underway to reduce annualized production, administrative and financing expenses a total of $300 million. Further, we expect to fund a $0.26 per share (approximately $100 million total) special dividend on October 1, 2020.

Table of Contents

Operating Cash Flow

Key inputs into determining our planned capital investment are the amounts 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 2020, we held approximately $1.7 billion of cash, inclusive of $195 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 hedge 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. For the remainder of 2020, we have approximately 95% of our oil production hedged with an average floor price of $41/Bbl and approximately 45% of our gas production hedged with an average floor price of $2.20/Mcf. Additionally, we are currently building our 2021 hedge positions at market prices. The key terms to our oil, gas and NGL derivative financial instruments as of June 30, 2020 are presented in Note 3 in “Part I. Financial Information – Item 1. Financial Statements” 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.

Driven by lower realized prices, margins and capital investment, we have begun initiatives to reduce our annualized production and administrative costs a total of $225 million. We expect these annualized savings to be sustainable as we tailor our workforce and operations for current activity levels.

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 and other protections allowed per our agreements.

Divestitures of Property and Equipment

We expect to close our Barnett Shale divestiture on October 1, 2020. Pursuant to the terms of this transaction, we currently hold a $170 million deposit and expect to receive approximately $300 million at closing, net of purchase price adjustments.

Capital Expenditures

In response to the current macro-economic environment, we reduced our 2020 capital expenditures outlook by approximately $800 million, or 45% compared to the original capital budget. Our exploration and development budget for the remainder of 2020 is expected to range from $350 million to $400 million. As economic factors change, we will continue to be flexible with our capital program.

Debt Repurchases

Our Board of Directors has authorized a $1.5 billion debt repurchase program. Repurchases will be dependent on market conditions and may be made through open market purchases, tender offers or other transaction structures. The repurchases are expected to generate $75 million of annualized financing cost savings.

Credit Availability

As of June 30, 2020, we had approximately $3.0 billion of available borrowing capacity 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, 2020, there were no borrowings under our commercial paper program, and we were in compliance with the Senior Credit Facility’s financial covenant.

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 stable outlook. Our credit rating from Moody’s Investor Service is Ba1 with a stable outlook. Any rating downgrades may result in additional letters of credit or cash collateral being posted under certain contractual arrangements.

Critical Accounting Estimates

Income Taxes

The amount of income taxes recorded requires interpretations of complex rules and regulations of federal, state, provincial and foreign tax jurisdictions. We recognize current tax expense based on estimated taxable income for the current period and the applicable statutory tax rates. We routinely assess potential uncertain tax positions and, if required, estimate and establish accruals for such amounts. We have recognized deferred tax assets and liabilities for temporary differences, operating losses and other tax carryforwards. We routinely assess our deferred tax assets and reduce such assets by a valuation allowance if we deem it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Due to an unprecedented downturn in the commodity price environment and the resulting asset impairments, Devon had significant deferred tax assets at March 31, 2020. Accordingly, we reassessed the realizability of our deferred tax assets in future periods and recorded a 100% valuation allowance against our net deferred tax assets during the first quarter of 2020. As of June 30, 2020, we remain in a full valuation allowance position.

Valuation of Long-Lived Assets

Long-lived assets used in operations, including proved and unproved oil and gas properties, are depreciated and assessed for impairment annually or whenever changes in facts and circumstances indicate a possible significant deterioration in future cash flows is expected to be generated by an asset group. For DD&A calculations and impairment assessments, management groups individual assets based on a judgmental assessment of the lowest level (“common operating field”) for which there are identifiable cash flows that are largely independent of the cash flows of other groups of assets.

Management evaluates assets for impairment through an established process in which changes to significant assumptions such as prices, volumes and future development plans are reviewed. If, upon review, the sum of the undiscounted pre-tax cash flows is less than the carrying value of the asset group, the carrying value is written down to estimated fair value. Because there usually is a lack of quoted market prices for long-lived assets, the fair value of impaired assets is typically determined based on the present values of expected future cash flows using discount rates believed to be consistent with those used by principal market participants. The expected future cash flows used for impairment reviews and related fair value calculations are typically based on judgmental assessments of future production volumes, commodity prices, operating costs and capital investment plans, considering all available information at the date of review. The expected future cash flows used for impairment reviews include future production volumes associated with proved producing and risk-adjusted proved undeveloped, probable and possible reserves.

Besides the risk-adjusted estimates of reserves and future production volumes, future commodity prices are the largest driver in the variability of undiscounted pre-tax cash flows. For our impairment determinations, we historically have utilized NYMEX forward strip prices for the first five years and applied internally generated price forecasts for subsequent years. In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, the NYMEX forward market became highly illiquid as evidenced by materially reduced trading volumes for periods beyond 2021. Therefore, we altered our price forecast assumptions to perform our March 31, 2020 impairment computations. Specifically, we supplemented the NYMEX forward strip prices with price forecasts published by reputable investment banks and reservoir engineering firms to estimate our future revenues as of March 31, 2020.

We also estimate and escalate or de-escalate future capital and operating costs by using a method that correlates cost movements to price movements similar to recent history. To measure indicated impairments, we use a market-based weighted-average cost of

Table of Contents

capital to discount the future net cash flows. Changes to any of the reserves or market-based assumptions can significantly affect estimates of undiscounted and discounted pre-tax cash flows and impact the recognition and amount of impairments.

Reduced demand from the COVID-19 pandemic and management of production levels from OPEC caused WTI pricing to decrease more than 60% during the first quarter of 2020. As a result, we reduced our planned 2020 capital investment 45%. With materially lower commodity prices and reduced near-term investment, we assessed all our oil and gas fields for impairment as of March 31, 2020 and recognized proved and unproved impairments totaling $2.8 billion. The impairments relate to our Anadarko Basin and Rockies fields in which our basis included acquisitions completed in 2016 and 2015, respectively, when commodity prices were much higher than they are today.

We assessed our Eagle Ford asset for impairment as of June 30, 2020 utilizing the same methodology we applied for the impairment assessments for all of our and oil and gas fields in the first quarter of 2020. Our Eagle Ford asset’s sum of undiscounted cash flows exceeded the carrying value indicating no impairment as of June 30, 2020. Further, as a result of improved oil pricing, the cushion increased significantly from March 31, 2020 to June 30, 2020. If prices significantly deteriorate and/or management lowers the planned capital investment in the Eagle Ford field, our Eagle Ford asset could be subject to a material impairment of capitalized costs.

Goodwill

We test goodwill for impairment annually at October 31, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances dictate that the carrying value of goodwill may not be recoverable. We perform a qualitative assessment to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of goodwill is less than its carrying amount. As part of our qualitative assessment, we considered the general macro-economic, industry and market conditions, changes in cost factors, actual and expected financial performance, significant changes in management, strategy or customers and stock performance. If the qualitative assessment determines that a quantitative goodwill impairment test is required, then the fair value is compared to the carrying value. If the fair value is less than the carrying value, an impairment charge will be recognized for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the fair value. Because quoted market prices are not available, the fair value is estimated based upon a valuation analyses including comparable companies and transactions and premiums paid.

Because the trading price of our common stock decreased 73% during the first quarter of 2020 in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, we performed a goodwill impairment test as of March 31, 2020. While the cushion narrowed significantly since our last impairment evaluation, we concluded an impairment was not required as of March 31, 2020. The two most critical judgements included in the March 31, 2020, test were the period utilized to determine Devon’s market capitalization and the control premium. For the test performed as of March 31, 2020 we derived our market capitalization by using our average common stock price from the latter two thirds of March 2020, to align with the time in the quarter subsequent to a key OPEC+ meeting and the date COVID-19 was officially classified as a pandemic. We applied a control premium based on recent comparable market transactions.

Subsequent to the end of the first quarter of 2020, Devon’s common stock price increased approximately 60% during the second quarter but remains significantly less than our average trading price before the events experienced in the first quarter of 2020. Although our common stock price and commodity prices are in a period of high volatility, a sustained period of depressed commodity prices would adversely affect our estimates of future operating results, which could result in future goodwill impairments due to the potential impact on the cash flows of our operations. The impairment of goodwill has no effect on liquidity or capital resources. However, it would adversely affect our results of operations in the period recognized.

For additional information regarding our critical accounting policies and estimates, see our 2019 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 2020 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 Barnett Shale asset and Canadian operations, see Note 17 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, fair value changes in derivative financial instruments and foreign currency, changes in tax legislation and restructuring and transaction costs associated with the workforce reductions 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.

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; DD&A; 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 sales 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 generally 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 to EBITDAX and a further reconciliation to Field-Level Cash Margin.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Commodity Price Risk

As of June 30, 2020, we have commodity derivatives that pertain to a portion of our estimated production for the last six months of 2020, as well as for 2021. 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, 2020, a 10% change in the forward curves associated with our commodity derivative instruments would have changed our net positions by approximately $165 million.

Interest Rate Risk

As of June 30, 2020, we had total debt of $4.3 billion. All of our debt is based on fixed interest rates averaging 6.0%.

Foreign Currency Risk

Devon has certain Canadian dollar obligations associated with its divested 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, 2020 balance sheet for these items. See Note 17 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, 2020 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

There were no 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.

On December 17, 2019, we announced a $1.0 billion share repurchase program that has a December 31, 2020 expiration date. As of June 30, 2020, we had repurchased 2.2 million common shares for $38 million, or $16.85 per share, under our share repurchase program. As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic and related economic impacts, Devon has temporarily suspended its share repurchase program to preserve liquidity. If Devon were to resume share repurchases under the program, such repurchases may be made in open-market or private transactions. For additional information, see Note 16 in “Part I. Financial Information – Item 1. Financial Statements” of this report.

Under the Devon Plan, eligible employees made purchases of shares of our common stock through an investment in the Devon Stock Fund, which is administered by an independent trustee. Eligible employees purchased approximately 4,100 shares of our common stock in the second quarter of 2020, at then-prevailing stock prices, that they held through their ownership in the Stock Fund. We acquired the shares of our common stock sold under the Devon Plan through open-market purchases.

(b)Vesting. 100% of the shares of the Restricted Stock is scheduled to vest on the first anniversary date of the Date of Grant (the “Vesting Date”). If the Participant’s Date of Termination has not occurred as of a Vesting Date, then the Participant shall be entitled, subject to the applicable provisions of the Plan and this Agreement having been satisfied, to receive on or within a reasonable time after the Vesting Date, the shares scheduled to vest as of the Vesting Date. The portion of the Restricted Stock that has vested pursuant to the terms of this Agreement shall be deemed “Vested Stock.”

The Participant shall forfeit the unvested portion of the Award (including the underlying Restricted Stock and Accrued Dividends) upon the occurrence of the Participant’s Date of Termination unless the Award becomes vested under the circumstances described in paragraphs (i) or (ii) below.

(i)The Award shall become fully vested upon the Participant’s Date of Termination if the Participant’s Date of Termination occurs by reason of the Participant’s death. The Committee may, in its sole discretion, elect to accelerate vesting of all or any portion of the Award if the Date of Termination occurs by reason of the Participant’s disability or occurs under other special circumstances (as determined by the Committee and permitted pursuant to the Plan).

(ii)The Award shall become fully vested upon the Participant’s Date of Termination if the Participant’s Date of Termination occurs by reason of the Participant’s Mandatory Retirement.

(c)Voting Rights and Dividends. The Participant shall have all of the voting rights attributable to the shares of Restricted Stock. Any dividends declared and paid by the Company with respect to shares of Restricted Stock (“Accrued Dividends”) shall not be paid to the Participant until such Restricted Stock becomes Vested Stock. Accrued Dividends shall be held by the Company as a general obligation of the Company and paid to the Participant reasonably promptly following the time the underlying Restricted Stock becomes Vested Stock (but in no event later than March 15 of the calendar year following the year in which such vesting occurs).

(d)Vested Stock – Removal of Restrictions. Upon Restricted Stock becoming Vested Stock, all restrictions shall be removed from the certificates or book-entry registrations and the Participant shall be provided a confirmation of the release of such Vested Stock, representing such Vested Stock as free and clear of all restrictions, except for any applicable securities laws restrictions. Reasonably promptly thereafter (but in no event later than March 15 of the calendar year following the year in which such vesting occurs), the Participant shall receive a payment in the amount of all Accrued Dividends attributed to such Vested Stock without interest thereon.

4.Legend. The shares of Restricted Stock covered by the Award shall be subject to the restrictions described in the following legend, which shall appear on any individual certificate or book-entry registration representing the Award:

“THE SHARES OF STOCK EVIDENCED BY THIS CERTIFICATE OR BOOK-ENTRY REGISTRATION ARE SUBJECT TO AND ARE TRANSFERRABLE ONLY IN ACCORDANCE WITH THAT CERTAIN RESTRICTED STOCK AWARD AGREEMENT DATED Grant Date UNDER THE DEVON ENERGY CORPORATION 2017 LONG-TERM INCENTIVE PLAN. ANY ATTEMPTED TRANSFER OF THE SHARES OF STOCK EVIDENCED BY THIS CERTIFICATE OR BOOK-ENTRY REGISTRATION IN VIOLATION OF SUCH AGREEMENT SHALL BE NULL AND VOID AND WITHOUT EFFECT. A COPY OF THE AGREEMENT MAY BE OBTAINED FROM THE SECRETARY OF DEVON ENERGY CORPORATION.”

5.Delivery of Forfeited Shares. The Participant authorizes the Secretary to deliver to the Company any and all shares of Restricted Stock that are forfeited under the provisions of this Agreement.

6.Nontransferability of Award. The Participant shall not have the right to sell, assign, transfer, convey, dispose, pledge, hypothecate, burden, encumber, or charge the Award or any Restricted Stock or any interest therein in any manner whatsoever.

7.Notices. All notices or other communications relating to the Plan and this Agreement as it relates to the Participant shall be in writing and shall be delivered electronically, personally, or mailed (U.S. mail) by the Company to the Participant at the then current address as maintained by the Company or such other address as the Participant may advise the Company in writing.

9.Award Subject to Claims of Creditors.

Summary Of Significant Accounting Policies (Policies)	Jun. 30, 2020
Accounting Policies [Abstract]
Principles of Consolidation	During the fourth quarter of 2019, Devon entered into an agreement to form Cotton Draw Midstream, L.L.C. (“CDM”), a joint-venture entity in the Delaware Basin with an affiliate of QL Capital Partners, LP (“QLCP”). Devon holds a controlling interest in CDM and the portions of CDM’s net earnings and equity not attributable to Devon’s controlling interest are shown separately as noncontrolling interests in the accompanying consolidated statements of comprehensive earnings and consolidated balance sheets. CDM is considered a VIE to Devon. The assets of CDM cannot be used by Devon for general corporate purposes and are included in and disclosed parenthetically on Devon's consolidated balance sheets. The carrying amount of liabilities related to CDM for which the creditors do not have recourse to Devon's assets are also included in, and disclosed parenthetically, on Devon's consolidated balance sheets if material.
Recent Accounting Standards	Recently Adopted Accounting Standards In 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses. This ASU changes the impairment model for trade receivables, held-to-maturity debt securities, net investments in leases, loans and other financial assets measured at amortized cost from the current “incurred loss” model to a new forward-looking “expected loss” model. Devon adopted this ASU in the first quarter of 2020 using the modified retrospective approach. Devon assesses credit risk by class of account type which includes cash equivalents and oil and gas, marketing and midstream, joint interest and other accounts receivable. These classes are then further evaluated using a probability weighted scenario assessment based on historical losses and a probability of future default. This evaluation is supported by an assessment of risk factors such as the age of receivable, current macro-economic conditions, credit rating of the counterparty and our historical loss rate. This adoption did not have a material impact on Devon’s consolidated financial statements.
Commitments And Contingencies	Devon is party to various legal actions arising in the normal course of business. Matters that are probable of an 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.
