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.

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 and six-month periods ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 and Devon’s financial position as of June 30, 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 six months ended June 30, 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. Under ASU 2017-04, an entity should perform its 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.

Issued Accounting Standards Not Yet Adopted

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 Recognition and 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 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.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS – (Continued)

(Unaudited)

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 continuing research, Devon estimates at least 11,500 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. Recently, several companies, including certain upstream oil and gas companies, met with the FASB to discuss whether contracts for easements and rights-of-way are subject to the scope of ASU 2016-02 or other existing accounting standards. For Devon, these contracts represent a relatively small percentage of the aggregate value of contracts being evaluated but represent approximately 80% of the number of contracts. Therefore, this scoping decision could have a significant impact on the amount of effort required for Devon to adopt this ASU. Regardless, Devon anticipates the adoption of 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.

Devon Asset Divestitures

In May 2017, Devon announced a program to divest approximately $1 billion of upstream assets. The non-core assets identified for monetization include select portions of the Barnett Shale focused primarily in and around Johnson County and other properties located principally within Devon’s U.S. resource base. Devon expects the divestiture process will take 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.

Subsequent to June 30, 2017, Devon reached an agreement to sell its non-core Eagle Ford assets in Lavaca County for $205 million, subject to certain adjustments. The transaction is expected to close in the second half of 2017. No gain or loss is expected to be recognized under the full cost method of accounting.

In June 2016, Devon divested its non-core Mississippian assets for approximately $200 million. Estimated proved reserves associated with these assets were approximately 11 MMBoe, or less than 1% of total U.S. proved reserves. Under full cost accounting rules, sales or dispositions of oil and gas properties are generally accounted for as adjustments to capitalized costs, with no recognition of a gain or loss. No gain or loss was recognized on the sale of the Mississippian assets.

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.

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 June 30, 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 June 30, 2017, Devon held $34 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.

4.	Share-Based Compensation

In the second quarter of 2017, Devon’s stockholders approved the 2017 Plan. The 2017 Plan replaces the 2015 Plan. From the effective date of the 2017 Plan, no further awards may be made under the 2015 Plan, and awards previously granted will continue to be governed by the terms of the respective award documents. Subject to the terms of the 2017 Plan, awards may be made for a total of 33.5 million shares of Devon common stock, plus the number of shares available for issuance under the 2015 Plan (including shares subject to outstanding awards under the 2015 Plan that are transferred to the 2017 Plan in accordance with its terms). The 2017 Plan authorizes the Compensation Committee, which consists of independent, non-management members of Devon’s Board of Directors, to grant nonqualified and incentive stock options, restricted stock awards or units, Canadian restricted stock units, performance units and stock appreciation rights to eligible employees. The 2017 Plan also authorizes the grant of nonqualified stock options, restricted stock awards or units and stock appreciation rights to non-employee directors. To calculate the number of shares that may be granted in awards under the 2017 Plan, options and stock appreciation rights represent one share and other awards represent 2.3 shares.

The following table presents the effects of share-based compensation included in Devon’s accompanying consolidated comprehensive statements of earnings. Gross G&A expense for the first six months of 2017 and 2016 includes $21 million and $12 million, respectively, of unit-based compensation related to grants made under EnLink’s long-term incentive plans.

The vesting for certain share-based awards was accelerated in 2016 in conjunction with the reduction of workforce described in Note 6. For the six months ended June 30, 2016, approximately $67 million of associated expense for these accelerated awards is included in restructuring and transaction costs in the accompanying consolidated comprehensive statements of earnings.

	Six Months Ended June 30,

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.

Devon recognized $885 million and $2.5 billion in oil and gas asset impairments for its U.S. operations and $612 million and $1.2 billion for its Canadian operations for the three months ended and six months ended June 30, 2016, 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.

Reduction in Workforce

In the first six months of 2016, Devon recognized $236 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 settlements of defined retirement benefits.

As a result of the reduction of workforce, Devon ceased using certain office space that was subject to non-cancellable operating lease arrangements. Devon recognized restructuring costs that represent the present value of its future obligations under the leases and impairment charges for leasehold improvements and furniture associated with the office space it ceased using.

Transaction Costs

In the first six months of 2016, Devon and EnLink recognized transaction costs primarily associated with the closing of the acquisitions discussed in Note 2.

7.	Income Taxes

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

Other		(6	%)		3	%		(4	%)		3	%
Effective income tax rate		2	%		10	%		2	%		7	%

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 through the first six months 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. Devon provided an additional $1.3 billion to the U.S. segment valuation allowance in the first six months of 2016 based on the financial loss recorded during the period. Devon reduced its U.S. segment valuation allowance by $320 million in the first six months of 2017 based on the financial income recorded during the period. Furthermore, a partial allowance continues to be held against certain Canadian segment deferred tax assets.

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 impairments to EnLink’s Texas and General Partner reporting units of $473 million and $307 million, respectively.

Other Intangible Assets

The following table presents other intangible assets reported in other long-term assets in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.

	June 30, 2017			December 31, 2016
	(Millions)
Customer relationships	$	1,796		$	1,796
Accumulated amortization		(231	)		(172	)
Net intangibles	$	1,565		$	1,624

The weighted-average amortization period for other intangible assets is 14 years. Amortization expense for intangibles was $30 million for both the three months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively, and $59 million and $58 million for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively. The remaining amortization expense is estimated to be $118 million for each of the next five years.

Credit Lines

Devon has a $3.0 billion Senior Credit Facility. As of June 30, 2017, Devon had $58 million in outstanding letters of credit under the Senior Credit Facility. There were no outstanding borrowings under the Senior Credit Facility at June 30, 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 June 30, 2017, Devon was in compliance with this covenant with a debt-to-capitalization ratio of 19.3%.

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 June 30, 2017, there were $9 million in outstanding letters of credit and $166 million in outstanding borrowings at an average rate of 2.8% under the $1.5 billion credit facility. The General Partner has a $250 million secured revolving credit facility. As of June 30, 2017, the General Partner had $65 million in outstanding borrowings at an average rate of 3.2%. EnLink and the General Partner were in compliance with all financial covenants in their respective credit facilities as of June 30, 2017.

In May 2017, EnLink issued $500 million of 5.45% unsecured senior notes due in 2047. The proceeds were used to repay outstanding borrowings under its revolving credit facility and for general partnership purposes. Additionally, in June 2017, EnLink redeemed its $163 million 7.125% senior unsecured notes due in 2022. EnLink redeemed the notes at 103.6% of the principal amount, plus accrued unpaid interest, for aggregate cash consideration of $174 million, which resulted in a gain on extinguishment of debt of $9 million for both the three and six months ended June 30, 2017. The gain is included in net financing costs in the consolidated comprehensive statement of earnings.

Dividends

The table below summarizes the dividends Devon paid on its common stock.

	Amounts		Rate
	(Millions)		(Per Share)
Quarter Ended 2017:
First quarter 2017	$	32	$	0.06
Second quarter 2017		33	$	0.06
Total year-to-date	$	65
Quarter Ended 2016:
First quarter 2016	$	125	$	0.24
Second quarter 2016		33	$	0.06
Total year-to-date	$	158

In response to the depressed commodity price environment, Devon reduced its quarterly dividend to $0.06 per share 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 six months of 2017, EnLink issued and sold 4 million common units though its “at the market” program and generated $72 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 June 30, 2017, Devon’s ownership interest in EnLink was 23%, excluding the interest held by the General Partner. Devon’s ownership interest in the General Partner as of June 30, 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 $163 million and $147 million to non-Devon unitholders during the first six 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.

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 June 30, 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.

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. 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 and interest rate derivatives – The fair values of commodity and interest rate 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.

During the first six months of 2017, Devon generated solid operating results with its three-fold strategy of operating in North America’s very best resource plays, delivering superior execution and maintaining a high degree of financial strength. Led by our development in the STACK, Delaware and Eagle Ford, we continued to improve our 90-day initial production rates. With investments in proprietary data tools, predictive analytics and artificial intelligence, we are delivering industry-leading, initial-rate well productivity performance and improving the performance of our established wells. Even though our 2017 production volumes have declined from 2016 due to reduced capital investment, we estimate our highest-margin U.S. oil production from retained assets will exit 2017 at a rate 18-23% higher than year-end 2016. This production growth is driven by our improved well productivity, along with increased drilling activity, and will build operational momentum into 2018.

Besides improving our upstream capital efficiency, we continued our focus on managing and reducing costs. With creative supply chain sourcing strategies, improved efficiency and lower debt levels, our aggregate LOE, gross G&A and financing costs declined $190 million, or 12%, during the first six months of 2017.

Compared to 2016, commodity prices increased significantly and were the primary driver for improvements in Devon’s operating margins, earnings and cash flow during the first six months of 2017. We exited the second quarter of 2017 with liquidity comprised of $2.4 billion of cash and $3 billion of available credit under our debt facility. We have no significant debt maturities until 2021. At June 30, 2017, we also had approximately 55% of our remaining 2017 forecasted oil production hedged at an average floor price of $50/Bbl and approximately 55% of our remaining 2017 forecasted natural gas production hedged at an average floor price of $3.10/MMBtu. We are building our 2018 hedge positions at similar prices.

We expect to further enhance our financial strength with our recently announced $1 billion asset divestiture program. The planned divestitures consist of 35,000 Boe/d of production from select non-core leasehold within the Barnett Shale and the Eagle

Table of Contents

Ford, along with other minor properties. Subsequent to June 30, 2017, we announced the $205 million sale of our non-core Eagle Ford assets in Lavaca County. Combined with other minor asset sales, we have now sold $340 million of assets under this program.

Looking ahead, Devon has four priorities in the current environment as we execute on our strategy. We will continue to build and maintain momentum in the STACK and Delaware. We intend to organically fund our capital programs. We will execute on the remainder of our asset divestiture program. Finally, we expect to further improve our investment-grade financial strength.

2017 sales	$	1,144		$	546	$	571		$	254		$	2,515

Commodity sales increased in the second quarter and the first six months 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. Additionally, our bitumen sales benefited from tighter bitumen and heavy oil differentials. 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 U.S. production volumes steadily declined throughout 2016. Asset divestitures also caused our volumes to decline significantly in the third and fourth quarters of 2016.

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 second quarter and first six months of 2017. Including the cash settlements discussed above, our oil, gas and NGL derivatives incurred net losses in the second quarter and first six months of 2016.

Total profit	$	224		$	207			+8	%	$	431		$	409			+5	%

The overall increase in marketing and midstream margin during the second quarter and the first six months 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. Devon is 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.

Total	$	8.18	$	7.09		+15	%	$	7.90	$	7.11		+11	%

Our absolute LOE decreased during the second quarter and the first six months of 2017 primarily due to our non-core U.S. 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. These cost savings were partially offset by Access Pipeline transportation tolls of $29 million and $60 million during the second quarter and first six months of 2017, respectively, 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 Canada LOE per BOE compared to the second quarter and the first six months of 2016.

Gross G&A increased during the second quarter of 2017 due to employee severance costs and decreased the first six months 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 during the second quarter and for the first six months of 2017 primarily due to higher employee compensation costs.

Total		5.8	%		6.9	%		- 16	%		6.2	%		8.0	%		- 22	%

Production taxes increased during each period in 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 each period 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.

DD&A from our oil and gas properties decreased in the second quarter and the first six months 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. DD&A from our other assets

Table of Contents

decreased due to the divestiture of Access Pipeline in the fourth quarter of 2016. EnLink’s DD&A increased primarily due to acquisitions made during 2016.

Asset Impairments

During the second quarter and the first six months of 2016, we recognized asset impairments totaling $1.5 billion and $4.5 billion, respectively. 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 six months of 2016, we recognized restructuring costs of $256 million as a result of a reduction in workforce driven by our cost reduction initiatives and divestiture of non-core properties.

During the first six months of 2016, we recognized transaction costs of $15 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.

Devon’s net financing costs decreased during the second quarter and the first six months of 2017 primarily due to the repayment of $2.5 billion in borrowings, including scheduled maturities and early retirements funded with asset divestiture proceeds. EnLink’s net financing costs decreased during the second quarter and first six months of 2017 due to a gain on extinguishment of debt as disclosed in Note 14 in “Part I. Financial Information – Item 1. Financial Statements” of this report.

Operating Cash Flow

Net cash provided by operating activities increased approximately 220% primarily due to significantly higher commodity prices and lower operating costs as compared to the first six months of 2016.

Our consolidated operating cash flow funded 100% of our capital expenditures during the first six months of 2017. In 2016, leveraging our liquidity, we also used cash balances and proceeds from our common stock offering and non-core asset divestitures 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 pay a portion of the $250 million installment payment related to EnLink’s 2016 acquisition further discussed in Note 2 in “Part I. Financial Information – Item 1. Financial Statements” in this report.

Divestitures of Property and Equipment

During the first six months of 2017, Devon sold non-core U.S. assets for approximately $100 million. In June 2016, we sold our non-core Mississippian assets for approximately $200 million. For further discussion, see Note 2 in “Part 1. Financial Information – Item 1. Financial Statements” in this report.

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 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 development activities.

Acquisition capital for the first six 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 $850 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 six months of 2017, consolidated net debt borrowings increased $410 million. In May 2017, EnLink issued $500 million of 5.45% senior notes due in 2047 to repay outstanding borrowings under its revolving credit facility and for general partnership purposes. Additionally, in June 2017, EnLink redeemed its 7.125% senior unsecured notes due in 2022.

During the first six months of 2016, we reduced our debt by $329 million. The decrease was primarily due to reducing our commercial paper balances by $626 million and was partially offset by EnLink’s increased credit facility borrowings to fund acquisitions and growth capital expenditures.

Payment of Installment Payable

During the first quarter 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

The following table summarizes our common stock dividends during the first six months of 2017 and 2016. In the second quarter of 2016, we decreased our quarterly cash dividend rate to $0.06 per share.

	Amounts		Rate
	(Millions)		(Per Share)
Quarter Ended 2017:
First quarter 2017	$	32	$	0.06
Second quarter 2017		33	$	0.06
Total year-to-date	$	65
Quarter Ended 2016:
First quarter 2016	$	125	$	0.24
Second quarter 2016		33	$	0.06
Total year-to-date	$	158

EnLink and the General Partner distributed $163 million and $147 million to non-Devon unitholders during the first six months of 2017 and 2016, respectively.

EnLink and General Partner Distributions

Devon received $133 million in distributions from EnLink and the General Partner during the first six months of 2017 and 2016.

Issuance of Subsidiary Units

During the first six months of 2017, EnLink issued and sold 4 million common units through its “at the market” program and generated $72 million in net proceeds. Additionally, during the first six months of 2016, EnLink issued and sold 3 million common units for net proceeds of $52 million through its “at the market” program.

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 also 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 $1.1 billion in the first six months of 2017 compared to the first six 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 within our operating cash flow. Additionally, proceeds from non-core asset divestitures will 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 June 30, 2017, see Note 3 in “Part I. Financial Information – Item 1. Financial Statements” in this report.

Divestiture of Property and Equipment

In May 2017, we announced a program to divest approximately $1 billion of non-core upstream assets, which includes select portions of the Barnett Shale focused primarily in and around Johnson County and other minor properties across the U.S. Devon has reached an agreement to sell our non-core Eagle Ford assets in Lavaca County for $205 million. The transaction is expected to close in the second half of 2017 and will bring our total divestiture proceeds to $340 million when combined with other minor asset sales. We expect to open the Barnett Shale data room to potential buyers in the third quarter of 2017.

Capital Expenditures

Excluding EnLink, our 2017 capital expenditures are expected to range from $2.2 billion to $2.6 billion, including $1.9 billion to $2.2 billion for our exploration and development capital program. Our capital expenditures excluding EnLink were $1.1 billion in the first six months of 2017, are forecasted to range from $0.6 million to $0.7 million in the third quarter of 2017 and are forecasted to range from $0.5 million to $0.8 million in the fourth quarter of 2017.

Credit Availability

We have a $3.0 billion Senior Credit Facility. As of June 30, 2017, we had approximately $2.9 billion available under this facility, net of $58 million in outstanding letters of credit, and were in compliance with the facility’s financial covenant. This credit facility supports our $3.0 billion of short-term credit under our commercial paper program. At June 30, 2017, there were no borrowings under our commercial paper program.

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 June 30, 2017, there were $9 million in outstanding letters of credit and $166 million borrowed under the $1.5 billion credit facility and $65 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 gathering and processing midstream 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. 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.

Critical Accounting Estimates

Income Taxes

The amount of income taxes recorded requires interpretations of complex rules and regulations of federal, state, provincial and foreign tax jurisdictions. We recognize current tax expense based on estimated taxable income for the current period and the applicable statutory tax rates. We routinely assess potential uncertain tax positions and, if required, estimate and establish accruals for such amounts. We have recognized deferred tax assets and liabilities for temporary differences, operating losses and other tax carryforwards. We routinely assess our deferred tax assets and reduce such assets by a valuation allowance if we deem it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. At June 30, 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 second quarter and first six months 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, noncash asset impairments and gains associated with early retirement of debt. Amounts excluded for the second quarter and first six months 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 June 30, 2017, we have commodity derivatives that pertain to a portion of our production for the last six 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 June 30, 2017, a 10% change in the forward curves associated with our commodity derivative instruments would have changed our net asset positions by approximately $150 million.

Interest Rate Risk

As of June 30, 2017, we had total debt of $10.6 billion. Of this amount, $10.4 billion bears fixed interest rates averaging 5.3%, and $231 million is comprised of floating rate debt with interest rates averaging 2.9%.

As of June 30, 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 June 30, 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 June 30, 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 June 30, 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.
