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 “expects,” “believes,” “will,” “would,” “could,” “forecasts,” “projections,” “estimates,” “plans,” “expectations,” “targets,” “opportunities,” “potential,” “anticipates,” “outlook” and other similar terminology. Such forward-looking statements are based on our examination of historical operating trends, the information used to prepare our December 31, 2016 reserve reports and other data in our possession or available from third parties. 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:

• 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 exploration and development activities;

• risks related to our hedging activities;

• counterparty credit risks;

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

• risks relating to our indebtedness;

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

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

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

• midstream capacity constraints and potential interruptions in production;

• competition for leases, materials, people and capital;

• cyberattacks targeting our systems and infrastructure; and

• any of the other risks and uncertainties discussed in this report, our 2016 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.

DEVON ENERGY CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

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 2016 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

The accompanying unaudited interim financial statements furnished 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 periods ended March 31, 2017 and 2016 and Devon’s financial position as of March 31, 2017.

Recently Adopted Accounting Standards

In January 2017, Devon adopted ASU 2016-09, Compensation – Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting. Its objective is to simplify several aspects of the accounting for share-based payments, including income taxes when awards vest or are settled, statutory withholding and forfeitures. As the result of adoption, Devon made certain income tax presentation changes, most notably prospectively presenting excess tax benefits and deficiencies in the consolidated comprehensive statements of earnings and as operating cash flows in the consolidated statements of cash flows. Devon also retrospectively applied the new cash flow statement guidance dictating the presentation of shares traded for tax-withholding purposes as a financing activity. The adoption of the new guidance did not materially impact the consolidated financial statements for the three months ended March 31, 2017 or previously reported financial information but could have a more material future impact.

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-04, Intangibles - Goodwill And Other (Topic 350)—Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment ("ASU 2017-04"). ASU 2017-04 simplifies the accounting for goodwill impairments by eliminating the requirement to compare the implied fair value of goodwill with its carrying amount as part of step two of the goodwill impairment test. As a result, under ASU 2017-04, an entity should perform its annual, or interim, goodwill impairment test by comparing the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount. An impairment charge should be recognized for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the reporting unit's fair value. However, the impairment loss recognized should not exceed the total amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit. ASU 2017-04 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2019, including any interim impairment tests within those annual periods, with early application for interim or annual goodwill impairment tests performed on testing dates after January 1, 2017. In January 2017, Devon elected to early adopt ASU 2017-04, and the adoption had no impact on the consolidated financial statements. Devon will perform future goodwill impairment tests according to ASU 2017-04.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards

The FASB issued ASU 2014-09,Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606). This ASU will supersede the revenue recognition requirements in Topic 605,Revenue Recognitionand industry-specific guidance in Subtopic 932-605,Extractive Activities – Oil and Gas – Revenue Recognition.This ASU provides guidance concerning the recognition and measurement of revenue from contracts with customers. Its objective is to increase the usefulness of information in the financial statements regarding the nature, timing and uncertainty of revenues. The effective date for ASU 2014-09 was delayed through the issuance of ASU 2015-14,Revenue from Contracts with Customers – Deferral of the Effective Date,to annual and interim periods beginning in 2018, with early adoption permitted in 2017. Devon does not plan on early adopting this ASU. The ASU is required to be adopted using either the retrospective transition method, which requires restating previously reported results or the cumulative effect (modified retrospective) transition method, which utilizes a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings in the period of adoption to account for prior period effects rather than restating previously reported results. Devon intends to use the cumulative effect transition method and does not anticipate this ASU will have a material impact on its balance sheet or related consolidated statement of earnings, stockholders’ equity or cash flows. Devon continues to evaluate the impact of the disclosures required by this ASU. Devon does not expect its

10

DEVON ENERGY CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS – (Continued)

(Unaudited)

annual disclosures will materially change upon adopting this ASU. However, Devon’s quarterly disclosures will materially expand upon adoption of this ASU. Devon is implementing a process to gather and provide the quarterly disclosures required by the ASU.

The FASB issued ASU 2016-02,Leases (Topic 842). This ASU will supersede the lease requirements in Topic 840,Leases. Its objective is to increase transparency and comparability among organizations. This ASU provides guidance requiring lessees to recognize most leases on their balance sheet. Lessor accounting does not significantly change, except for some changes made to align with new revenue recognition requirements. This ASU is effective for Devon beginning January 1, 2019 and will be applied using a modified retrospective transition method, which requires applying the new guidance to leases that exist or are entered into after the beginning of the earliest period in the financial statements. Early adoption is permitted, but Devon does not plan to early adopt. Devon has begun the process of evaluating contracts and gathering the necessary terms and data elements for purposes of determining the impact this ASU will have on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. Based on initial research, Devon estimates more than 7,500 contracts and a large number of data elements must be gathered and reviewed to ensure proper accounting of these contracts once this ASU is effective. Furthermore, Devon anticipates complying with this standard will significantly impact its systems, processes and controls and is evaluating technology requirements and solutions needed to comply with the requirements of this ASU.

The FASB issued ASU No. 2017-07, Compensation – Retirement Benefits (Topic 715), Improving the Presentation of Net Periodic Pension Cost and Net Periodic Postretirement Benefit Cost. This ASU will require entities to present the service cost component of net periodic benefit cost in the same line item as other employee compensation costs and present the other components of net periodic benefit cost outside of operating income in the income statement. Only the service cost component of net periodic benefit cost is eligible for capitalization. This ASU is effective for Devon beginning January 1, 2018, and income statement presentation changes will be applied retrospectively, while service cost component capitalization will be applied prospectively. Upon adoption of this ASU, Devon will reclassify $7 million, $14 million and $16 million of non-service cost components of net periodic benefit costs for 2017, 2016 and 2015, respectively, as other nonoperating items. Such amounts are currently classified in Devon’s G&A. No other changes upon adopting this ASU are expected to be material.  

2. Acquisitions and Divestitures

Devon Acquisitions

On January 7, 2016, Devon acquired approximately 80,000 net acres (unaudited) and assets in the STACK play for approximately $1.5 billion. Devon funded the acquisition with $849 million of cash, after adjustments, and $659 million of common equity shares. The purchase price allocation was approximately $1.3 billion to unproved properties and approximately $200 million to proved properties.

EnLink Acquisitions

On January 7, 2016, EnLink acquired Anadarko Basin gathering and processing midstream assets, along with dedicated acreage service rights and service contracts, for approximately $1.4 billion. The purchase price allocation was $1.0 billion to intangible assets and approximately $400 million to property and equipment. EnLink funded the acquisition with approximately $215 million of General Partner common units and approximately $800 million of cash, primarily funded with the issuance of EnLink preferred units. The remaining $500 million of the purchase price was to be paid within one year with the option to defer $250 million of the final payment 24 months from the close date. The first installment payment of $250 million was paid in January 2017. The remaining $250 million payment is reported in other current liabilities in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. The accretion of the discount is reported within net financing costs in the accompanying consolidated comprehensive statement of earnings.

EnLink Asset Divestitures

During the first quarter of 2017, EnLink divested its ownership interest in Howard Energy Partners for approximately $190 million.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS – (Continued)

(Unaudited)

Devon Upstream Asset Divestitures

In May 2017, Devon announced its intent to divest approximately $1 billion of upstream assets. The non-core assets identified for monetization include select portions of the Barnett Shale focused primarily around Johnson County and other properties located principally within Devon’s U.S. resource base. Devon expects the divestiture process will take up to 12 to 18 months to complete. Devon plans to deploy divestiture proceeds toward its U.S. resource plays and to further strengthen its investment-grade financial position. The non-core divestiture plan is also expected to accelerate Devon’s transition to higher-margin production.

3. Derivative Financial Instruments

Objectives and Strategies

Devon periodically enters into derivative financial instruments with respect to a portion of its oil, gas and NGL production to hedge future prices received. Additionally, Devon and EnLink periodically enter into derivative financial instruments with respect to a portion of their 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 and foreign exchange forward contracts to manage its exposure to fluctuations in the U.S. and Canadian dollar exchange rates. As of March 31, 2017, Devon did not have any open foreign exchange 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 March 31, 2017, Devon held $13 million of cash collateral, which represented the estimated fair value of certain derivative positions in excess of Devon’s credit guidelines and is reported in other current liabilities in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. As of December 31, 2016, Devon held no collateral from counterparties.

Commodity Derivatives

As of March 31, 2017, Devon had the following open oil derivative positions. The first table presents Devon’s oil derivatives that settle against the average of the prompt month NYMEX WTI futures price.

5. Asset Impairments

Oil and Gas Impairments

Under the full cost method of accounting, capitalized costs of oil and gas properties, net of accumulated DD&A and deferred income taxes, may not exceed the full cost “ceiling” at the end of each quarter. The ceiling is calculated separately for each country and is based on the present value of estimated future net cash flows from proved oil and gas reserves, discounted at 10% per annum, net of related tax effects. Estimated future net cash flows are calculated using end-of-period costs and an unweighted arithmetic average of commodity prices in effect on the first day of each of the previous 12 months.

In the first quarter of 2016, Devon recognized $1.6 billion and $554 million in oil and gas asset impairments for its U.S. and Canadian operations, respectively. The oil and gas impairments resulted from declines in the U.S. and Canada full cost ceilings. The lower ceiling values resulted primarily from significant decreases in the 12-month average trailing prices for oil, bitumen, gas and NGLs, which significantly reduced proved reserves values and, to a lesser degree, proved reserves.

EnLink Goodwill Impairments

In the first quarter of 2016, EnLink recognized $873 million in goodwill impairments. See Note 12 for additional details.

6.      Restructuring and Transaction Costs

Reduction in Workforce

In the first quarter of 2016, Devon recognized $234 million in employee-related costs associated with a reduction in workforce. Of these employee-related costs, approximately $67 million resulted from accelerated vesting of share-based grants, which are noncash charges. Additionally, approximately $30 million resulted from estimated defined benefit settlements.

Transaction Costs

In the first quarter of 2016, Devon and EnLink recognized $13 million in transaction costs primarily associated with the closing of the acquisitions discussed in Note 2.

Devon estimates its annual effective income tax rate in recording 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.

Throughout 2016 and into the first quarter of 2017, Devon continued to maintain a 100% valuation allowance against its U.S. deferred tax assets resulting from prior year cumulative financial losses largely due to full cost impairments. Furthermore, a partial allowance continues to be held against certain Canadian segment deferred tax assets. Devon provided an additional $808 million and a reduction of $192 million to the U.S. segment valuation allowance in the first quarters of 2016 and 2017, respectively, based on the financial loss and income recorded during those periods.     

In the first quarter of 2016, EnLink recorded goodwill impairments totaling $873 million. These impairments are not deductible for purposes of calculating income tax and, therefore, have an impact on the effective tax rate.

Devon is under audit in the U.S. and various foreign jurisdictions as part of its normal course of business. The timing of resolution of income tax examinations is uncertain as are the amounts and timing of tax payments that are part of any audit settlement process. Devon believes that within the next 12 months, it is reasonably possible that certain tax examinations will be resolved by settlement with the taxing authorities.

12. Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets

Goodwill

Devon performs an annual impairment test of goodwill at October 31, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of a reporting unit may not be recoverable. Sustained weakness in the overall energy sector driven by low commodity prices, together with a decline in EnLink’s unit price, caused a noncash goodwill impairment of $873 million in the first quarter of 2016. This consisted of a full impairment charge of $93 million related to EnLink’s Crude and Condensate reporting unit and partial impairment to EnLink’s Texas and General Partner reporting units of $473 million and $307 million, respectively.

Other Intangible Assets

Credit Lines

Devon has a $3.0 billion Senior Credit Facility. As of March 31, 2017, Devon had $149 million in outstanding letters of credit, including $57 million in outstanding letters of credit under the Senior Credit Facility. There were no outstanding borrowings under the Senior Credit Facility at March 31, 2017. 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 full cost ceiling impairments or goodwill impairments. As of March 31, 2017, Devon was in compliance with this covenant with a debt-to-capitalization ratio of 19.2%.

EnLink Debt

All of EnLink’s and the General Partner’s debt is non-recourse to Devon.

EnLink has a $1.5 billion unsecured revolving credit facility. As of March 31, 2017, there were $9 million in outstanding letters of credit and $330 million in outstanding borrowings at an average rate of 3.00% under the $1.5 billion credit facility. The General Partner has a $250 million secured revolving credit facility. As of March 31, 2017, the General Partner had $43 million in outstanding borrowings at an average rate of 3.06%. EnLink and the General Partner were in compliance with all financial covenants in their respective credit facilities as of March 31, 2017.

In April 2017, EnLink issued notice to redeem its 7.125% senior unsecured notes due 2022 on June 1, 2017.

Dividends

Devon paid common stock dividends of $32 million and $125 million in the first three months of 2017 and 2016, respectively. Devon decreased its quarterly cash dividend rate from $0.24 per share to $0.06 per share beginning in the second quarter of 2016.

18. Noncontrolling Interests

Subsidiary Equity Transactions

EnLink has the ability to sell common units through an “at the market” equity offering program. During the first quarter of 2017, EnLink issued and sold 3 million common units though its “at the market” program and generated $55 million in net proceeds. During the first quarter of 2016, EnLink issued preferred units in conjunction with its acquisition of Anadarko Basin gathering and processing midstream assets as discussed in Note 2. As of March 31, 2017, Devon’s ownership interest in EnLink was 24%, excluding the interest held by the General Partner. Devon’s ownership interest in the General Partner as of March 31, 2017 was 64%. The net gains and losses and related income taxes resulting from these transactions have been recorded as an adjustment to equity, with the change in ownership reflected as an adjustment to noncontrolling interests.

Distributions to Noncontrolling Interests

EnLink and the General Partner distributed $81 million and $73 million to non-Devon unitholders during the first three months of 2017 and 2016, respectively.

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 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. The suits allege that the producers and related parties 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 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 environmental, health and safety laws and regulations, including with respect 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.

Other Matters

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

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 U.S. and Canadian treasury securities. The fair value approximates the carrying value.

Level 2 Fair Value Measurements

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

Commodity, interest rate and foreign currency derivatives – The fair values of commodity, interest rate and foreign currency derivatives are 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. The fair values of commercial paper and credit facility balances are the carrying values.

Installment payment – The fair value of the EnLink installment payment was based on Level 2 inputs from third-party market quotations.

Capital lease obligations – The fair value was calculated using inputs from third-party banks.

21. Segment Information

Devon manages its operations through distinct operating segments, which are defined primarily by geographic areas. For financial reporting purposes, Devon aggregates its U.S. operating segments into one reporting segment due to the similar nature of the businesses. However, Devon’s Canadian E&P operating segment is reported as a separate reporting segment primarily due to the significant differences between the U.S. and Canadian regulatory environments. Devon’s U.S. and Canadian segments are both primarily engaged in oil and gas E&P activities.

Devon considers EnLink, combined with the General Partner, to be an operating segment that is distinct from the U.S. and Canadian operating segments. EnLink’s operations consist of midstream assets and operations located across the U.S. Additionally, EnLink has a management team that is primarily responsible for capital and resource allocation decisions. Therefore, EnLink is presented as a separate reporting segment.

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 and capital resources and uses for the three-month period ended March 31, 2017 compared to the three-month period ended March 31, 2016 and in our financial condition and liquidity since December 31, 2016. For information regarding our critical accounting policies and estimates, see our 2016 Annual Report on Form 10-K under “Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.”

Overview of 2017 Results

Key components of our financial performance are summarized below.

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

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

(3) Except for balance sheet amounts, which are presented as of March 31.

During the first three months of 2017, Devon continued its performance transformation through improved capital efficiency and well productivity. These efforts were coupled with a catalyst-rich drilling schedule in our high-growth and key asset positions, leading to U.S. oil production sequential quarter growth of 17%. Commodity prices were also improved on a sequential quarter basis, with oil, NGL and gas index prices up 6%, 15%, and 11%, respectively. Throughout the first quarter, we also maintained significant focus on controlling service costs across the value chain, especially as it relates to managing the cost of water and sand.  

With our price outlook not significantly changed since last quarter, we continue to execute on a commodity hedging strategy that targets hedging approximately 50% of our future oil and natural gas production, with hedges being placed systematically several quarters in advance. As of March 31, 2017, we have hedging contracts on approximately 50% of our forecasted oil production for 2017 at an average price of $50/Bbl and approximately 50% of our forecasted gas production for 2017 at an average price of $3/MMBtu.

Furthermore, in 2017 and beyond, we have the financial capacity and an advantaged capital structure to further accelerate investment across our best-in-class resource plays. We continue to maintain investment-grade credit ratings, have strong liquidity with approximately $5.1 billion in cash and Senior Credit Facility capacity and have no significant debt maturities until 2021. Moreover, our significant investment in EnLink continues to be a strategic advantage for us, allowing for improved midstream growth potential, and providing for a regular, visible cash flow stream of approximately $270 million annually to be further invested in our upstream capital programs.

Commodity Sales

The volume and price changes in the tables above caused the following changes to our commodity sales between the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016.

	Three Months Ended March 31,
	Oil			Bitumen			Gas				NGLs				Total
	(Millions)
2016 sales	$	445			$	75		$	220			$	85			$	825
Change due to volumes		(106	)			13			(51	)			(25	)			(169	)
Change due to prices		263				186			128				76				653
2017 sales	$	602			$	274		$	297			$	136			$	1,309

Commodity sales increased in the first quarter of 2017 due to significant price increases for all commodities. The increase in oil and bitumen sales resulted from a higher average WTI crude oil index price. The increases in gas and NGL sales were due to higher North American regional index prices upon which our gas sales are based and higher NGL prices at the Mont Belvieu, Texas hub.  

The increase in sales due to the favorable movement in commodity prices was partially offset by a decline in production volumes. In 2016, we significantly reduced our drilling and completion capital programs in response to depressed commodity prices. Consequently, our production volumes steadily declined throughout 2016. Asset divestitures also caused our volumes to decline significantly in the third and fourth quarters of 2016. However, with higher capital investment in our 2017 drilling and completion programs, we anticipate our production volumes will grow from the fourth quarter 2016 level.

Oil, Gas and NGL Derivatives

A summary of our open commodity derivative positions is included in Note 3 to the financial statements included in “Part I. Financial Information – Item 1. Financial Statements” of this report. The following tables provide financial information associated with our oil, gas and NGL hedges. The first table presents the cash settlements and fair value gains and losses recognized as components of our revenues. The subsequent tables present our oil, gas and NGL prices with, and without, the effects of the cash settlements. The prices do not include the effects of fair value gains and losses.

	Three Months Ended March 31,

Realized price, including cash settlements	$	48.10	$	25.60	$	2.65		$	15.46	$	25.97
	Three Months Ended March 31, 2016
	Oil		Bitumen		Gas			NGLs		Boe
	(Per Bbl)		(Per Bbl)		(Per Mcf)			(Per Bbl)		(Per Boe)
Realized price without hedges	$	26.58	$	8.16	$	1.53		$	6.84	$	13.23

Realized price, including cash settlements	$	26.58	$	8.16	$	1.66		$	6.84	$	13.53

Cash settlements as presented in the tables above represent realized gains or losses related to various commodity derivatives. In addition to cash settlements, we also recognize fair value changes on our oil, gas and NGL derivative instruments in each reporting period. The changes in fair value resulted from new positions and settlements that occurred during each period, as well as the relationships between contract prices and the associated forward curves. Including the cash settlements discussed above, our oil, gas and NGL derivatives generated net gains in the first quarters of 2017 and 2016.

Marketing and Midstream Revenues and Operating Expenses

	Three Months Ended March 31,
	2017			2016			Change
	(Millions)
Operating revenues	$	2,010		$	1,268			+59	%
Product purchases		(1,711	)		(979	)		+75	%
Operations and maintenance expenses		(92	)		(87	)		+6	%
Operating profit	$	207		$	202			+3	%
Devon loss	$	(20	)	$	(15	)		- 33	%
EnLink profit		227			217			+5	%
Total profit	$	207		$	202			+3	%

The overall increase in marketing and midstream margin during the first quarter of 2017 was primarily due to an increase in EnLink’s throughput volumes related to gas processing and transmission activities, offset by a decline in margins on Devon’s downstream marketing commitments. We are actively engaged in optimization activities to improve margins to help offset the costs of downstream commitments, however, we expect those commitments to negatively impact our margins throughout 2017.

Lease Operating Expenses

	Three Months Ended March 31,
	2017		2016		Change
	(Millions, except per Boe amounts)
LOE:
U.S.	$	252	$	343		- 26	%
Canada		134		101		+33	%
Total	$	386	$	444		- 13	%
LOE per Boe:
U.S.	$	6.66	$	6.78		- 2	%
Canada	$	10.51	$	8.60		+22	%
Total	$	7.62	$	7.13		+7	%

Our absolute LOE decreased during the first quarter of 2017 primarily due to our non-core U.S. oil and gas property divestitures during 2016 and continued well optimization and cost reduction initiatives. These initiatives have been primarily focused on reducing costs associated with water disposal, power and fuel, compression and workovers and include a strategy to decouple certain of our vendors’ higher margin services to capture lower costs. These cost savings were partially offset by $31 million of Access Pipeline transportation tolls, which commenced in the fourth quarter of 2016 subsequent to the sale of our interest in the pipeline. The Access Pipeline transportation tolls were the primary driver in the increase in LOE per BOE compared to the first quarter of 2016.

General and Administrative Expenses

	Three Months Ended March 31,
	2017			2016			Change
	(Millions)
Gross G&A	$	220		$	262			- 16	%
Capitalized G&A		(59	)		(73	)		- 19	%
Reimbursed G&A		(16	)		(25	)		- 35	%
Devon Net G&A		145			164			- 12	%
EnLink Net G&A		36			30			+20	%
Net G&A	$	181		$	194			- 7	%

Gross G&A and capitalized G&A decreased during the first quarter of 2017 largely due to lower Devon employee costs resulting from the 2016 workforce reductions and other cost reduction initiatives. Reimbursed G&A decreased primarily due to the divestitures of operated properties in 2016. EnLink net G&A increased primarily due to higher employee compensation expense.

31

Production and Property Taxes

	Three Months Ended March 31,
	2017			2016			Change
	(Millions)
Production taxes	$	53		$	33			+58	%
Property and other taxes		21			34			- 37	%
Devon production and property taxes		74			67			+10	%
EnLink property taxes		11			11			+0	%
Production and property taxes	$	85		$	78			+10	%
Percentage of oil, gas and NGL sales:
Production taxes		4.0	%		4.0	%		0	%
Property and other taxes		2.5	%		5.4	%		- 53	%
Total		6.5	%		9.4	%		- 31	%

Production taxes increased during the first quarter of 2017 on an absolute dollar basis primarily due to an increase in our U.S. revenues, on which the majority of our production taxes are assessed. Property and other taxes decreased in the first quarter of 2017 primarily as a result of lower property value assessments from the local taxing authorities across our key operating areas and as a result of our non-core oil and gas property divestitures during 2016. Property taxes do not always change in direct correlation with the change in oil, gas and NGL sales and are generally determined based on the valuation of the underlying assets.

Depreciation, Depletion and Amortization

		Three Months Ended March 31,
		2017		2016		Change
	(Millions, except per Boe amounts)
DD&A:
Oil and gas properties		$	225	$	378		- 40	%
Other assets			28		42		- 34	%
Devon DD&A			253		420		- 40	%
EnLink DD&A			128		122		+5	%
Total DD&A		$	381	$	542		- 30	%
DD&A per Boe:
Oil and gas properties		$	4.45	$	6.07		- 27	%

DD&A from our oil and gas properties decreased in the first quarter of 2017 largely due to lower DD&A rates, resulting from the oil and gas asset impairments and non-core U.S. divestures in 2016. EnLink’s DD&A increased primarily due to acquisitions made during 2016.

Asset Impairments

During the first quarter of 2016, we recognized asset impairments totaling $3.0 billion. For further discussion, see Note 5 in “Part I. Financial Information – Item 1. Financial Statements” of this report.

Restructuring and Transaction Costs

During the first quarter of 2016, we recognized restructuring costs of $234 million as a result of a reduction in workforce driven by our cost reduction initiatives and divestiture of non-core properties.

During the first quarter of 2016, we recognized transaction costs of $13 million, primarily associated with the closing of the acquisitions discussed in Note 2 in “Part I. Financial Information – Item 1. Financial Statements” of this report.

Net Financing Costs

	Three Months Ended March 31,
	2017			2016			Change
	(Millions)
Devon net financing costs:
Interest based on debt outstanding	$	97		$	128			- 24	%
Capitalized interest		(17	)		(14	)		+18	%
Other		2			6			- 65	%
Total Devon net financing costs		82			120			- 32	%
EnLink net financing costs:
Interest based on debt outstanding		40			33			+21	%
Interest accretion on deferred installment payment		7			12			- 42	%
Other		(2	)		(1	)		+100	%
Total EnLink net financing costs		45			44			+2	%
Total net financing costs	$	127		$	164			- 22	%

Net financing costs decreased during the first quarter of 2017 primarily due to Devon’s repayment of $2.5 billion of borrowings, including early retirements funded with asset divestiture proceeds and scheduled maturities. EnLink’s net financing costs remained flat compared to the prior year quarter as the increase in interest on fixed-rate borrowings was offset by a decline in accretion on installment payments due in January 2017 and 2018 further discussed in Note 2 in “Part I. Financial Information – Item 1. Financial Statements” of this report.

Income Taxes

	Three Months Ended March 31,

Operating Cash Flow

Net cash provided by operating activities increased approximately 400% primarily due to significantly higher commodity prices and lower field operating costs as compared to the first quarter of 2016.

Our consolidated operating cash flow funded 100% of our capital expenditures during the first three months of 2017. In 2016, leveraging our liquidity, we also used cash balances and proceeds from our common stock offering to fund our acquisitions and capital expenditures.

Issuance of Common Stock

In February 2016, we issued 79 million shares of our common stock to the public, inclusive of 10 million shares sold as part of the underwriters’ option. Net proceeds from the offering were approximately $1.5 billion.

Proceeds from Sale of Investment

During the first quarter of 2017, EnLink divested its ownership interest in Howard Energy Partners for approximately $190 million. Proceeds were primarily used to repay a portion of the $250 million installment payment related to EnLink’s 2016 acquisitions further discussed in Note 2 in “Part I. Financial Information – Item 1. Financial Statements” in this report.

Capital Expenditures and Acquisitions of Property, Equipment and Businesses

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 March 31,
	2017		2016
	(Millions)
Oil and gas	$	477	$	604
Corporate and other		14		10
Devon capital expenditures		491		614
EnLink capital expenditures		256		135
Total capital expenditures	$	747	$	749
Devon acquisitions		20		830
EnLink acquisitions		—		797
Total acquisitions	$	20	$	1,627

Capital expenditures consist of amounts related to our oil and gas exploration and development operations, midstream operations, other corporate activities and EnLink growth and maintenance activities. The vast majority of Devon’s capital expenditures are for the acquisition, drilling and development of oil and gas properties. Devon’s 2017 objectives are to concentrate capital spend in the STACK and Delaware Basin, while investing directionally within cash flow and maintaining significant flexibility. Our capital investment program is driven by a disciplined allocation process focused on returns.

Capital expenditures for Devon’s and EnLink’s midstream operations are primarily for the construction and expansion of oil and gas gathering facilities and pipelines. Midstream capital expenditures are largely impacted by oil and gas drilling and development activities.

Acquisition capital for the first three months of 2016 primarily consisted of Devon’s acquisition of assets in the STACK play for approximately $1.5 billion and EnLink’s acquisition of Anadarko Basin gathering and processing midstream assets for $1.4 billion. Approximately $830 million and $800 million, respectively, was paid in cash at the closings with the remainder funded with equity consideration and debt. For additional information, see Note 2 in “Part I. Financial Information – Item 1. Financial Statements” in this report.

Debt Activity, Net

During the first three months of 2017, our consolidated net debt borrowings increased $226 million. The increase was partially due to EnLink’s increased credit facility borrowing to fund growth capital expenditures and a portion of the deferred installment payment discussed in Note 2 in “Part I. Financial Information – Item 1. Financial Statements” in this report.

During the first three months of 2016, we reduced our debt by $489 million. The decrease was primarily due to reducing our commercial paper balances by $626 million partially offset by EnLink’s increased credit facility borrowings to fund acquisitions and growth capital expenditures.

Payment of Installment Payable

          During the first three months of 2017, EnLink made the first installment payment related to its 2016 acquisition further discussed in Note 2 in “Part I. Financial Information – Item 1. Financial Statements” in this report.

Shareholder and Noncontrolling Interests Distributions

We paid common stock dividends of $32 million and $125 million in the first three months of 2017 and 2016, respectively. We decreased our quarterly cash dividend rate from $0.24 per share to $0.06 per share beginning in the second quarter of 2016.

EnLink and the General Partner distributed $81 million and $73 million to non-Devon unitholders during the first three months of 2017 and 2016, respectively.

35

EnLink and General Partner Distributions

Devon received $66 million in distributions from EnLink and the General Partner during the first quarters of 2017 and 2016.

Issuance of Subsidiary Units

During the first quarter of 2017, EnLink issued and sold 3 million common units through its “at the market” program and generated $55 million in net proceeds.

In January 2016, as part of its acquisition of Anadarko Basin gathering and processing midstream assets, EnLink issued 50 million preferred units in a private placement generating cash proceeds of approximately $725 million. General Partner common units were also issued as consideration in the transaction.

Liquidity

Our primary sources of capital and liquidity are our operating cash flow, asset divestiture proceeds and cash on hand. 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. Available sources of capital and liquidity include, among other things, debt and equity securities that can be issued pursuant to our shelf registration statement filed with the SEC, as well as the sale of a portion of our common units representing interests in our investment in EnLink and the General Partner. We estimate the combination of these sources of capital will continue to be adequate to fund our planned capital expenditures, future debt repayments and other contractual commitments as discussed in this section.

Operating Cash Flow

Our operating cash flow is sensitive to many variables, the most volatile of which are the prices of the oil, bitumen, gas and NGLs we produce and sell. Our consolidated operating cash flow increased approximately $700 million in the first three months of 2017 compared to the first three months of 2016 largely due to increases in commodity prices. We expect operating cash flow to continue to be a key source of liquidity as we adjust our capital program to invest directionally within our operating cash flow. Additionally, we anticipate utilizing our credit availability to provide additional liquidity as needed.

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. For additional information on our derivative positions in place at March 31, 2017, see Note 3 in “Part I. Financial Information – Item 1. Financial Statements” in this report.

36

Capital Expenditures

Excluding EnLink, our 2017 capital expenditures are expected to range from $2.3 billion to $2.7 billion, including $2.0 billion to $2.3 billion for our exploration and development capital program. Our capital expenditures excluding EnLink were $533 million in the first quarter of 2017, are forecasted to range from $600 million to $675 million in the second quarter of 2017 and are forecasted to range from $1.2 billion to $1.5 billion in the second half of 2017.

Divestiture of Property and Equipment

In May 2017, we announced our intent to divest approximately $1 billion of upstream assets. The non-core assets identified for monetization include select portions of the Barnett Shale focused primarily around Johnson County and other properties located principally within our U.S. resource base. We expect the divestiture process will take up to 12 to 18 months to complete. We plan to deploy divesture proceeds toward our U.S. resource plays and to further strengthen our investment-grade financial position. The non-core divestiture plan is also expected to accelerate our transition to higher-margin production.

Credit Availability

We have a $3.0 billion Senior Credit Facility. As of March 31, 2017, we had approximately $2.9 billion available under this facility, net of $57 million in outstanding letters of credit. This credit facility supports our $3.0 billion of short-term credit under our commercial paper program. At March 31, 2017, there were no borrowings under our commercial paper program.

The Senior Credit Facility contains only one material financial covenant. This covenant requires us to maintain a ratio of total funded debt to total capitalization, as defined in the credit agreement, to be no greater than 65%. As of March 31, 2017, we were in compliance with this covenant with a debt-to-capitalization ratio of 19.2%.

EnLink Liquidity

EnLink has a $1.5 billion unsecured revolving credit facility. The General Partner has a $250 million secured revolving credit facility. As of March 31, 2017, there were $9 million in outstanding letters of credit and $330 million borrowed under the $1.5 billion credit facility and $43 million in outstanding borrowings under the $250 million credit facility. All of EnLink’s and the General Partner’s debt is non-recourse to Devon.

In January 2017, EnLink paid the first $250 million installment payment related to the 2016 Anadarko Basin asset acquisition. The remaining $250 million installment payment is payable by January 2018.

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 near-term and long-term production growth opportunities. Our credit rating from Standard and Poor’s Financial Services is BBB with a stable outlook. In March 2017, Fitch Ratings affirmed our BBB+ rating and revised our outlook to stable from negative. In April 2017, Moody’s Investor Service upgraded our credit rating from Ba2 to Ba1 with a stable outlook. As a result of the upgraded credit rating, we eliminated $92 million in letters of credit that were outstanding as of March 31, 2017. Any rating downgrades may result in additional letters of credit or cash collateral being posted under certain contractual arrangements.

There are no “rating triggers” in any of our or EnLink’s contractual debt obligations that would accelerate scheduled maturities should our debt rating fall below a specified level. However, these downgrades could adversely impact our and EnLink’s interest rate on any credit facility borrowings and the ability to economically access debt markets in the future.

37

Critical Accounting Estimates

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.

The goodwill assessment is performed at the reporting unit level and primarily utilizes a discounted cash flow analysis, supplemented by a market approach analysis in the assessment. Key assumptions in the analysis include the use of an appropriate discount rate, terminal year multiples and estimated future cash flows, including volume forecasts and estimated operating and G&A costs. In estimating cash flows, current and historical market information, among other factors, are incorporated.

As a result of the October 31, 2016 impairment test, the fair value of EnLink’s Texas and General Partner reporting units was not substantially in excess of their carrying value. The fair value of the Texas and General Partner reporting units approximates their carrying values, and, as of March 31, 2017, $230 million and $1.1 billion of goodwill remains allocated to the reporting units, respectively. Significant decreases to EnLink’s unit price, decreases in commodity prices or negative deviations from EnLink’s projected reporting unit earnings could result in a goodwill impairment charge. A goodwill impairment charge would have no effect on liquidity or capital resources. However, it adversely affects net earnings in the period recognized.

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. At March 31, 2017, we continued to have a 100% valuation allowance against the U.S. deferred tax assets that largely resulted from prior year cumulative financial losses primarily due to full cost impairments. Further, we continue to record a partial valuation allowance against certain Canadian deferred tax assets.

The accruals for deferred tax assets and liabilities are often based on assumptions that are subject to a significant amount of judgment by management. These assumptions and judgments are reviewed and adjusted as facts and circumstances change. Material changes to our income tax accruals may occur in the future based on the progress of ongoing audits, changes in legislation or resolution of other pending matters.

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 2017 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. Our non-GAAP measures are typically used as a quarterly performance measure. Amounts excluded for the first quarter of 2017 relate to changes in derivatives and financial instrument fair values and foreign currency, deferred tax asset valuation allowance, gains and losses on asset sales and noncash asset impairments. Amounts excluded for the first quarter of 2016 relate to changes in derivatives and financial instrument fair values and foreign currency, noncash asset impairments (including an impairment of goodwill), deferred tax asset valuation allowance and restructuring and transaction costs. 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.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Commodity Price Risk

As of March 31, 2017, we have commodity derivatives that pertain to a portion of our production for the last nine months of 2017, as well as 2018. 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 March 31, 2017, a 10% change in the forward curves associated with our commodity derivative instruments would have changed our net asset positions by the following amounts:

	10% Increase			10% Decrease
Gain (loss):	(Millions)
Gas derivatives	$	(54	)	$	52
Oil derivatives	$	(155	)	$	153
NGL derivatives	$	(2	)	$	2
Processing and fractionation derivatives	$	(3	)	$	3

Interest Rate Risk

At March 31, 2017, we had total debt of $10.4 billion. Of this amount, $10.0 billion bears fixed interest rates averaging 5.3%, and approximately $380 million is comprised of floating rate debt with interest rates averaging 3.0%.

As of March 31, 2017, we had open interest rate swap positions that are presented in Note 3 in “Part I. Financial Information – Item 1. Financial Statements” in this report. The fair values of our interest rate swaps are largely determined by estimates of the forward curves of the 3-month LIBOR rate. A 10% change in these forward curves would not have materially impacted our balance sheet at March 31, 2017.

Foreign Currency Risk

Our net assets, net earnings and cash flows from our Canadian subsidiaries are based on the U.S. dollar equivalent of such amounts measured in the Canadian dollar functional currency. Assets and liabilities of the Canadian subsidiaries are translated to U.S. dollars using the applicable exchange rate as of the end of a reporting period. Revenues, expenses and cash flow are translated using an average exchange rate during the reporting period. A 10% unfavorable change in the Canadian-to-U.S. dollar exchange rate would not have materially impacted our March 31, 2017 balance sheet.

Our non-Canadian foreign subsidiaries have a U.S. dollar functional currency. However, certain of our subsidiaries hold Canadian-dollar cash and engage in intercompany loans with Canadian subsidiaries that are based in Canadian dollars. The value of the Canadian-dollar cash and intercompany loans increases or decreases from the remeasurement of the cash and loans into the U.S. dollar functional currency.

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 March 31, 2017 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.

We acquired the shares of our common stock sold under the Devon Plan through open-market purchases.

Similarly, eligible Canadian employees may purchase shares of our common stock through an investment in the Canadian Plan, which is administered by an independent trustee, Sun Life Assurance Company of Canada. Shares sold under the Canadian Plan were acquired through open-market purchases. These shares and any interest in the Canadian Plan were offered and sold in reliance on the exemptions for offers and sales of securities made outside of the U.S., including under Regulation S for offers and sales of securities to employees pursuant to an employee benefit plan established and administered in accordance with the law of a country other than the U.S. In the first quarter of 2017, there were approximately 2,400 shares purchased by Canadian employees.

Certain Corporate Changes.  If any change is made to the Common Stock (whether by reason of merger, consolidation, reorganization, recapitalization, stock dividend, stock split, combination of shares, or exchange of shares or any other change in capital structure made without receipt of consideration), then unless such event or change results in the termination of all the Performance Share Units granted under this Award Agreement, the Committee shall adjust, in an equitable manner and as provided in the Plan, the number and class of shares underlying the Performance Share Units, the maximum number of shares for which the Performance Share Units may vest, and the share price or class of Common Stock for purposes of the Performance Goal, as appropriate, to reflect the effect of such event or change in the Company’s capital structure in such a way as to preserve the value of the Performance Share Units.  Any adjustment that occurs under the terms of this Section 4 or the Plan will not change the timing or form of payment with respect to any Performance Share Units except as permitted in accordance with section 409A of the Code.  

5. Employment.  Nothing in the Plan or in this Award Agreement shall confer upon the Participant any right to continue in the employ of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliated Entities, or interfere in any way with the right to terminate the Participant’s employment at any time.

11. Award Subject to Claims of Creditors.  The Participant shall not have any interest in any particular assets of the Company, its parent, if applicable, or any Subsidiary or Affiliated Entity by reason of the right to earn an Award (including Dividend Equivalents) under the Plan and this Award Agreement, and the Participant or any other person shall have only the rights

12. Compliance with Section 409A.  This Award is intended to comply with the applicable requirements of section 409A of the Code and shall be administered in accordance with section 409A of the Code.  Notwithstanding anything in this Award Agreement to the contrary, if the Performance Share Units constitute “deferred compensation” under section 409A of the Code and any Performance Share Units become payable pursuant to the Participant’s termination of employment, settlement of the Performance Share Units shall be delayed for a period of six months after the Participant’s termination of employment if the Participant is a “specified employee” as defined under section 409A of the Code and if required pursuant to section 409A of the Code.  If settlement of the Performance Share Units is delayed, the Performance Share Units shall be settled within 30 days of the date that is the six-month anniversary of the Participant’s termination of employment.  If the Participant dies during the six-month delay, the Performance Share Units shall be settled in accordance with the Participant’s will or under the applicable laws of descent and distribution.  Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary herein, distributions made with respect to this Award may only be made in a manner and upon an event permitted by section 409A of the Code, and all payments to be made upon a termination of employment hereunder may only be made upon a “separation from service” as defined under section 409A of the Code.  To the extent that any provision of the Award Agreement would cause a conflict with the requirements of section 409A of the Code, or would cause the administration of the Performance Share Units to fail to satisfy the requirements of section 409A of the Code, such provision shall be deemed null and void to the extent permitted by applicable law.  In no event shall a Participant, directly or indirectly, designate the calendar year of payment.  This Award Agreement may be amended without the consent of the Participant in any respect deemed by the Board of Directors or its delegate to be necessary in order to preserve compliance with section 409A of the Code.

SCHEDULE A

PERFORMANCE GOAL, PERFORMANCE PERIOD AND PAYOUT VALUE LIMIT

1. Performance Period.  The maximum number of Performance Share Units in which Participant can vest pursuant to the Award shall be calculated based on the Performance Goal over a three-year Performance Period that begins January 1, 2017 and ends December 31, 2019 (the "Performance Period").

2. Performance Goal.  The Performance Goal is based on total shareholder return (“TSR”).  TSR shall mean the rate of return stockholders receive through stock price changes and the assumed reinvestment of dividends over the Performance Period.  Vesting will be based on the Company’s TSR ranking relative to the TSR ranking of the Peer Companies (identified in Section 3(c) below).  At the end of the Performance Period, the TSR for the Company, and for each Peer Company, shall be determined pursuant to the following formula:

TSR = (Closing Average Share Value – Opening Average Share Value) + Reinvested Dividends

Opening Average Share Value

The result shall be rounded to the nearest hundredth of one percent (.01%).

(a) The term “Closing Average Share Value” means the average value of the common stock for the 30 trading days ending on the last day of the Performance Period, which shall be calculated as follows: (i) determine the closing price of the common stock on each trading date during 30-day period and (ii) average the amounts so determined for the 30-day period.

(b) The term “Opening Average Share Value” means the average value of the common stock for the 30 trading days preceding the start of the Performance Period, which shall be calculated as follows: (i) determine the closing price of the common stock on each trading date during the 30-day period and (ii) average the amounts so determined for the 30-day period.

(c) “Reinvested Dividends” shall be calculated by multiplying (i) the aggregate number of shares (including fractional shares) that could have been purchased during the Performance Period had each cash dividend paid on a single share during that period been immediately reinvested in additional shares (or fractional shares) at the closing selling price per share on the applicable ex-dividend date by (ii) the Closing Average Share Value.  

(d) Each of the foregoing amounts shall be equitably adjusted for stock splits, stock dividends, recapitalizations and other similar events affecting the shares in question without the issuer’s receipt of consideration.

3. Vesting Schedule.  The Performance Share Units will vest pursuant to the Award, subject to application of the Payout Value Limit described in Section 4 below, based on the Company’s relative TSR ranking in respect of the Performance Period as compared to the TSR ranking of the Peer Companies, in accordance with the following schedule:

Devon Energy Corporation Relative TSR Ranking	Vesting (Percentage of Target Award)
1-3	200%
4	175%
5	150%
6	125%
7	100%
Median	90%
9	80%
10	70%
11	60%
12	50%
13-15	0%

(a) The maximum number of Performance Share Units that can vest for the Performance Period may range from 0% to 200% of the target Award, with the actual percentage to be determined on the basis of the percentile level at which the Committee certifies that the Performance Goal has been attained in relation to the corresponding Performance Goal for Peer Companies for the Performance Period; provided however, that the maximum number of Performance Share Units that may become earned and vested during such Performance Period will be calculated as follows: Number of Shares Granted x 200%.  The Committee retains sole discretion to reduce the vesting percentage (and thus the maximum number of Performance Share Units that may vest), including reduction to zero, without regard to the performance of the Company’s TSR relative to the TSR of the Peer Companies.  In addition, vesting of Performance Share Units shall be subject to the Payout Value Limit described in Section 4 below.

(b) If the Company’s final TSR value is equal to the TSR value of a Peer Company, the Committee shall assign the Company the higher ranking.

(c) In addition to the Company, the Peer Companies are Anadarko Petroleum Corporation, Apache Corporation, Chesapeake Energy Corporation, Concho Resources, Inc., ConocoPhillips, Continental Resources, Inc., EnCana Corporation, EOG Resources, Inc., Hess Corporation, Marathon Oil Corporation, Murphy Oil Corporation, Noble Energy, Inc., Occidental Petroleum Corporation, and Pioneer Natural Resources Company.

(d) The Peer Companies will be subject to change as follows:

(i) In the event of a merger, acquisition or business combination transaction of a Peer Company, in which the Peer Company is the surviving entity and remains publicly traded, the surviving entity shall remain a Peer Company.  Any entity involved in the transaction that is not the surviving company shall no longer be a Peer Company.

(ii) If a Peer Company ceases to be a publicly traded company at any time during the Performance Period, for any reason, such company shall remain a Peer Company but shall be deemed to have a TSR of negative 100% (-100%).

4. Reduction.  If the value (based on the fair market value of a share of Common Stock on the last day of the Performance Period) of the aggregate number of Performance Share Units that vest pursuant to the Award based on Sections 1-3 of this Schedule A exceeds the Payout Value Limit, then the maximum number of vested Performance Share Units calculated under Sections 1-3 of this Schedule A shall be reduced so that the value (based on the fair market value of a share of Common Stock on the last day of the Performance Period) of the total number of Performance Share Units that vest pursuant to the Award is equal to the Payout Value Limit.  The “Payout Value Limit” shall be equal to the product of (a) the fair market value of a share of Common Stock on the first day of the Performance Period, times (b) the target number of Units subject to the Award, times (c) four.  

5. General Vesting Terms.  Any fractional Performance Share Unit resulting from the vesting of the Performance Share Units in accordance with the Award Agreement shall be rounded down to the nearest whole number.  Any portion of the Performance Share Units that does not vest as of the end of the Performance Period shall be forfeited as of the end of the Performance Period.

Accounting Policies [Abstract]

Summary Of Significant Accounting Policies

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 2016 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

The accompanying unaudited interim financial statements furnished 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 periods ended March 31, 2017 and 2016 and Devon’s financial position as of March 31, 2017.

Recently Adopted Accounting Standards

In January 2017, Devon adopted ASU 2016-09, Compensation – Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting. Its objective is to simplify several aspects of the accounting for share-based payments, including income taxes when awards vest or are settled, statutory withholding and forfeitures. As the result of adoption, Devon made certain income tax presentation changes, most notably prospectively presenting excess tax benefits and deficiencies in the consolidated comprehensive statements of earnings and as operating cash flows in the consolidated statements of cash flows. Devon also retrospectively applied the new cash flow statement guidance dictating the presentation of shares traded for tax-withholding purposes as a financing activity. The adoption of the new guidance did not materially impact the consolidated financial statements for the three months ended March 31, 2017 or previously reported financial information but could have a more material future impact.

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-04, Intangibles - Goodwill And Other (Topic 350)—Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment ("ASU 2017-04"). ASU 2017-04 simplifies the accounting for goodwill impairments by eliminating the requirement to compare the implied fair value of goodwill with its carrying amount as part of step two of the goodwill impairment test. As a result, under ASU 2017-04, an entity should perform its annual, or interim, goodwill impairment test by comparing the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount. An impairment charge should be recognized for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the reporting unit's fair value. However, the impairment loss recognized should not exceed the total amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit. ASU 2017-04 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2019, including any interim impairment tests within those annual periods, with early application for interim or annual goodwill impairment tests performed on testing dates after January 1, 2017. In January 2017, Devon elected to early adopt ASU 2017-04, and the adoption had no impact on the consolidated financial statements. Devon will perform future goodwill impairment tests according to ASU 2017-04.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards

The FASB issued ASU 2014-09,Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606). This ASU will supersede the revenue recognition requirements in Topic 605,Revenue Recognitionand industry-specific guidance in Subtopic 932-605,Extractive Activities – Oil and Gas – Revenue Recognition.This ASU provides guidance concerning the recognition and measurement of revenue from contracts with customers. Its objective is to increase the usefulness of information in the financial statements regarding the nature, timing and uncertainty of revenues. The effective date for ASU 2014-09 was delayed through the issuance of ASU 2015-14,Revenue from Contracts with Customers – Deferral of the Effective Date,to annual and interim periods beginning in 2018, with early adoption permitted in 2017. Devon does not plan on early adopting this ASU. The ASU is required to be adopted using either the retrospective transition method, which requires restating previously reported results or the cumulative effect (modified retrospective) transition method, which utilizes a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings in the period of adoption to account for prior period effects rather than restating previously reported results. Devon intends to use the cumulative effect transition method and does not anticipate this ASU will have a material impact on its balance sheet or related consolidated statement of earnings, stockholders’ equity or cash flows. Devon continues to evaluate the impact of the disclosures required by this ASU. Devon does not expect its annual disclosures will materially change upon adopting this ASU. However, Devon’s quarterly disclosures will materially expand upon adoption of this ASU. Devon is implementing a process to gather and provide the quarterly disclosures required by the ASU.

The FASB issued ASU 2016-02,Leases (Topic 842). This ASU will supersede the lease requirements in Topic 840,Leases. Its objective is to increase transparency and comparability among organizations. This ASU provides guidance requiring lessees to recognize most leases on their balance sheet. Lessor accounting does not significantly change, except for some changes made to align with new revenue recognition requirements. This ASU is effective for Devon beginning January 1, 2019 and will be applied using a modified retrospective transition method, which requires applying the new guidance to leases that exist or are entered into after the beginning of the earliest period in the financial statements. Early adoption is permitted, but Devon does not plan to early adopt. Devon has begun the process of evaluating contracts and gathering the necessary terms and data elements for purposes of determining the impact this ASU will have on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. Based on initial research, Devon estimates more than 7,500 contracts and a large number of data elements must be gathered and reviewed to ensure proper accounting of these contracts once this ASU is effective. Furthermore, Devon anticipates complying with this standard will significantly impact its systems, processes and controls and is evaluating technology requirements and solutions needed to comply with the requirements of this ASU.

The FASB issued ASU No. 2017-07, Compensation – Retirement Benefits (Topic 715), Improving the Presentation of Net Periodic Pension Cost and Net Periodic Postretirement Benefit Cost. This ASU will require entities to present the service cost component of net periodic benefit cost in the same line item as other employee compensation costs and present the other components of net periodic benefit cost outside of operating income in the income statement. Only the service cost component of net periodic benefit cost is eligible for capitalization. This ASU is effective for Devon beginning January 1, 2018, and income statement presentation changes will be applied retrospectively, while service cost component capitalization will be applied prospectively. Upon adoption of this ASU, Devon will reclassify $7 million, $14 million and $16 million of non-service cost components of net periodic benefit costs for 2017, 2016 and 2015, respectively, as other nonoperating items. Such amounts are currently classified in Devon’s G&A. No other changes upon adopting this ASU are expected to be material.

Acquisitions and Divestitures

2. Acquisitions and Divestitures

Devon Acquisitions

On January 7, 2016, Devon acquired approximately 80,000 net acres (unaudited) and assets in the STACK play for approximately $1.5 billion. Devon funded the acquisition with $849 million of cash, after adjustments, and $659 million of common equity shares. The purchase price allocation was approximately $1.3 billion to unproved properties and approximately $200 million to proved properties.

EnLink Acquisitions

On January 7, 2016, EnLink acquired Anadarko Basin gathering and processing midstream assets, along with dedicated acreage service rights and service contracts, for approximately $1.4 billion. The purchase price allocation was $1.0 billion to intangible assets and approximately $400 million to property and equipment. EnLink funded the acquisition with approximately $215 million of General Partner common units and approximately $800 million of cash, primarily funded with the issuance of EnLink preferred units. The remaining $500 million of the purchase price was to be paid within one year with the option to defer $250 million of the final payment 24 months from the close date. The first installment payment of $250 million was paid in January 2017. The remaining $250 million payment is reported in other current liabilities in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. The accretion of the discount is reported within net financing costs in the accompanying consolidated comprehensive statement of earnings.

EnLink Asset Divestitures

During the first quarter of 2017, EnLink divested its ownership interest in Howard Energy Partners for approximately $190 million.

Devon Upstream Asset Divestitures

In May 2017, Devon announced its intent to divest approximately $1 billion of upstream assets. The non-core assets identified for monetization include select portions of the Barnett Shale focused primarily around Johnson County and other properties located principally within Devon’s U.S. resource base. Devon expects the divestiture process will take up to 12 to 18 months to complete. Devon plans to deploy divestiture proceeds toward its U.S. resource plays and to further strengthen its investment-grade financial position. The non-core divestiture plan is also expected to accelerate Devon’s transition to higher-margin production.

Derivative Instruments And Hedging Activities Disclosure [Abstract]

Derivative Financial Instruments

3. Derivative Financial Instruments

Objectives and Strategies

Devon periodically enters into derivative financial instruments with respect to a portion of its oil, gas and NGL production to hedge future prices received. Additionally, Devon and EnLink periodically enter into derivative financial instruments with respect to a portion of their 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 and foreign exchange forward contracts to manage its exposure to fluctuations in the U.S. and Canadian dollar exchange rates. As of March 31, 2017, Devon did not have any open foreign exchange 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 March 31, 2017, Devon held $13 million of cash collateral, which represented the estimated fair value of certain derivative positions in excess of Devon’s credit guidelines and is reported in other current liabilities in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. As of December 31, 2016, Devon held no collateral from counterparties.

Asset Impairment Charges [Abstract]

Asset Impairments

5. Asset Impairments

Oil and Gas Impairments

Under the full cost method of accounting, capitalized costs of oil and gas properties, net of accumulated DD&A and deferred income taxes, may not exceed the full cost “ceiling” at the end of each quarter. The ceiling is calculated separately for each country and is based on the present value of estimated future net cash flows from proved oil and gas reserves, discounted at 10% per annum, net of related tax effects. Estimated future net cash flows are calculated using end-of-period costs and an unweighted arithmetic average of commodity prices in effect on the first day of each of the previous 12 months.

In the first quarter of 2016, Devon recognized $1.6 billion and $554 million in oil and gas asset impairments for its U.S. and Canadian operations, respectively. The oil and gas impairments resulted from declines in the U.S. and Canada full cost ceilings. The lower ceiling values resulted primarily from significant decreases in the 12-month average trailing prices for oil, bitumen, gas and NGLs, which significantly reduced proved reserves values and, to a lesser degree, proved reserves.

EnLink Goodwill Impairments

In the first quarter of 2016, EnLink recognized $873 million in goodwill impairments. See Note 12 for additional details.

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 March 31,
	2017			2016
	(Millions)
Current income tax expense (benefit)	$	20		$	(10	)
Deferred income tax benefit		(1	)		(207	)
Total income tax expense (benefit)	$	19		$	(217	)
U.S. statutory income tax rate		35	%		35	%
Deferred tax asset valuation allowance		(32	%)		(22	%)
Non-deductible goodwill impairments		0	%		(8	%)
Taxation on Canadian operations		0	%		(2	%)
State income taxes		1	%		1	%
Other		(1	%)		2	%
Effective income tax rate		3	%		6	%

Devon estimates its annual effective income tax rate in recording 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.

Throughout 2016 and into the first quarter of 2017, Devon continued to maintain a 100% valuation allowance against its U.S. deferred tax assets resulting from prior year cumulative financial losses largely due to full cost impairments. Furthermore, a partial allowance continues to be held against certain Canadian segment deferred tax assets. Devon provided an additional $808 million and a reduction of $192 million to the U.S. segment valuation allowance in the first quarters of 2016 and 2017, respectively, based on the financial loss and income recorded during those periods.     

In the first quarter of 2016, EnLink recorded goodwill impairments totaling $873 million. These impairments are not deductible for purposes of calculating income tax and, therefore, have an impact on the effective tax rate.

Devon is under audit in the U.S. and various foreign jurisdictions as part of its normal course of business. The timing of resolution of income tax examinations is uncertain as are the amounts and timing of tax payments that are part of any audit settlement process. Devon believes that within the next 12 months, it is reasonably possible that certain tax examinations will be resolved by settlement with the taxing authorities.

Goodwill And Other Intangible Assets

12. Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets

Goodwill

Devon performs an annual impairment test of goodwill at October 31, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of a reporting unit may not be recoverable. Sustained weakness in the overall energy sector driven by low commodity prices, together with a decline in EnLink’s unit price, caused a noncash goodwill impairment of $873 million in the first quarter of 2016. This consisted of a full impairment charge of $93 million related to EnLink’s Crude and Condensate reporting unit and partial impairment to EnLink’s Texas and General Partner reporting units of $473 million and $307 million, respectively.

Other Intangible Assets

There were no outstanding borrowings under the Senior Credit Facility at March 31, 2017. 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 full cost ceiling impairments or goodwill impairments. As of March 31, 2017, Devon was in compliance with this covenant with a debt-to-capitalization ratio of 19.2%.

EnLink Debt

All of EnLink’s and the General Partner’s debt is non-recourse to Devon.

EnLink has a $1.5 billion unsecured revolving credit facility. As of March 31, 2017, there were $9 million in outstanding letters of credit and $330 million in outstanding borrowings at an average rate of 3.00% under the $1.5 billion credit facility.

Commitments And Contingencies

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 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. The suits allege that the producers and related parties 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 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 environmental, health and safety laws and regulations, including with respect 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.

Other Matters

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

20. Fair Value Measurements

The following table provides carrying value and fair value measurement information for certain of Devon’s financial assets and liabilities. None of the items below are measured using Level 3 inputs. The carrying values of cash, accounts receivable, other current receivables, accounts payable, other current payables and accrued expenses included in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets approximated fair value at March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016. Therefore, such financial assets and liabilities are not presented in the following table. Additionally, the fair values of oil and gas assets, goodwill and other intangible assets and related impairments are measured as of the impairment date using Level 3 inputs. More information on these items is provided in Note 5 and Note 12, respectively.

Capital lease obligations	$	(7	)	$	(6	)	$	—	$	(6	)

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 U.S. and Canadian treasury securities. The fair value approximates the carrying value.

Level 2 Fair Value Measurements

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

Commodity, interest rate and foreign currency derivatives – The fair values of commodity, interest rate and foreign currency derivatives are 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. The fair values of commercial paper and credit facility balances are the carrying values.

Installment payment – The fair value of the EnLink installment payment was based on Level 2 inputs from third-party market quotations.

Capital lease obligations – The fair value was calculated using inputs from third-party banks.

Segment Reporting [Abstract]

Segment Information

21. Segment Information

Devon manages its operations through distinct operating segments, which are defined primarily by geographic areas. For financial reporting purposes, Devon aggregates its U.S. operating segments into one reporting segment due to the similar nature of the businesses. However, Devon’s Canadian E&P operating segment is reported as a separate reporting segment primarily due to the significant differences between the U.S. and Canadian regulatory environments. Devon’s U.S. and Canadian segments are both primarily engaged in oil and gas E&P activities.

Devon considers EnLink, combined with the General Partner, to be an operating segment that is distinct from the U.S. and Canadian operating segments. EnLink’s operations consist of midstream assets and operations located across the U.S. Additionally, EnLink has a management team that is primarily responsible for capital and resource allocation decisions. Therefore, EnLink is presented as a separate reporting segment.

Summary Of Significant Accounting Policies (Policies)

3 Months Ended

Mar. 31, 2017

Accounting Policies [Abstract]

Recent Accounting Standards

Recently Adopted Accounting Standards

In January 2017, Devon adopted ASU 2016-09, Compensation – Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting. Its objective is to simplify several aspects of the accounting for share-based payments, including income taxes when awards vest or are settled, statutory withholding and forfeitures. As the result of adoption, Devon made certain income tax presentation changes, most notably prospectively presenting excess tax benefits and deficiencies in the consolidated comprehensive statements of earnings and as operating cash flows in the consolidated statements of cash flows. Devon also retrospectively applied the new cash flow statement guidance dictating the presentation of shares traded for tax-withholding purposes as a financing activity. The adoption of the new guidance did not materially impact the consolidated financial statements for the three months ended March 31, 2017 or previously reported financial information but could have a more material future impact.

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-04, Intangibles - Goodwill And Other (Topic 350)—Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment ("ASU 2017-04"). ASU 2017-04 simplifies the accounting for goodwill impairments by eliminating the requirement to compare the implied fair value of goodwill with its carrying amount as part of step two of the goodwill impairment test. As a result, under ASU 2017-04, an entity should perform its annual, or interim, goodwill impairment test by comparing the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount. An impairment charge should be recognized for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the reporting unit's fair value. However, the impairment loss recognized should not exceed the total amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit. ASU 2017-04 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2019, including any interim impairment tests within those annual periods, with early application for interim or annual goodwill impairment tests performed on testing dates after January 1, 2017. In January 2017, Devon elected to early adopt ASU 2017-04, and the adoption had no impact on the consolidated financial statements. Devon will perform future goodwill impairment tests according to ASU 2017-04.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards

The FASB issued ASU 2014-09,Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606). This ASU will supersede the revenue recognition requirements in Topic 605,Revenue Recognitionand industry-specific guidance in Subtopic 932-605,Extractive Activities – Oil and Gas – Revenue Recognition.This ASU provides guidance concerning the recognition and measurement of revenue from contracts with customers. Its objective is to increase the usefulness of information in the financial statements regarding the nature, timing and uncertainty of revenues. The effective date for ASU 2014-09 was delayed through the issuance of ASU 2015-14,Revenue from Contracts with Customers – Deferral of the Effective Date,to annual and interim periods beginning in 2018, with early adoption permitted in 2017. Devon does not plan on early adopting this ASU. The ASU is required to be adopted using either the retrospective transition method, which requires restating previously reported results or the cumulative effect (modified retrospective) transition method, which utilizes a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings in the period of adoption to account for prior period effects rather than restating previously reported results. Devon intends to use the cumulative effect transition method and does not anticipate this ASU will have a material impact on its balance sheet or related consolidated statement of earnings, stockholders’ equity or cash flows. Devon continues to evaluate the impact of the disclosures required by this ASU. Devon does not expect its annual disclosures will materially change upon adopting this ASU. However, Devon’s quarterly disclosures will materially expand upon adoption of this ASU. Devon is implementing a process to gather and provide the quarterly disclosures required by the ASU.

The FASB issued ASU 2016-02,Leases (Topic 842). This ASU will supersede the lease requirements in Topic 840,Leases. Its objective is to increase transparency and comparability among organizations. This ASU provides guidance requiring lessees to recognize most leases on their balance sheet. Lessor accounting does not significantly change, except for some changes made to align with new revenue recognition requirements. This ASU is effective for Devon beginning January 1, 2019 and will be applied using a modified retrospective transition method, which requires applying the new guidance to leases that exist or are entered into after the beginning of the earliest period in the financial statements. Early adoption is permitted, but Devon does not plan to early adopt. Devon has begun the process of evaluating contracts and gathering the necessary terms and data elements for purposes of determining the impact this ASU will have on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. Based on initial research, Devon estimates more than 7,500 contracts and a large number of data elements must be gathered and reviewed to ensure proper accounting of these contracts once this ASU is effective. Furthermore, Devon anticipates complying with this standard will significantly impact its systems, processes and controls and is evaluating technology requirements and solutions needed to comply with the requirements of this ASU.

The FASB issued ASU No. 2017-07, Compensation – Retirement Benefits (Topic 715), Improving the Presentation of Net Periodic Pension Cost and Net Periodic Postretirement Benefit Cost. This ASU will require entities to present the service cost component of net periodic benefit cost in the same line item as other employee compensation costs and present the other components of net periodic benefit cost outside of operating income in the income statement. Only the service cost component of net periodic benefit cost is eligible for capitalization. This ASU is effective for Devon beginning January 1, 2018, and income statement presentation changes will be applied retrospectively, while service cost component capitalization will be applied prospectively. Upon adoption of this ASU, Devon will reclassify $7 million, $14 million and $16 million of non-service cost components of net periodic benefit costs for 2017, 2016 and 2015, respectively, as other nonoperating items. Such amounts are currently classified in Devon’s G&A. No other changes upon adopting this ASU are expected to be material.  

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 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.
