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 20162018 Annual Report on Form 10-K.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 nine-monthsix-month periods ended SeptemberJune 30, 20172019 and 20162018 and Devon’s financial position as of SeptemberJune 30, 2017.2019. As further discussed in Note 18, Devon sold its Canadian operations on June 27, 2019 and its ownership interests in EnLink and the General Partner on July 18, 2018. Activity relating to Devon’s Canadian operations and EnLink and the General Partner are classified as discontinued operations within Devon’s consolidated comprehensive statements of earnings and consolidated statements of cash flows. The associated assets and liabilities of Devon’s Canadian operations are presented as assets and liabilities associated with discontinued operations on the consolidated balance sheets.

Segment Information

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

Recently Adopted Accounting Standards

In January 2017,2019, Devon adopted ASU 2016-09, Compensation – Stock Compensation2016-02, Leases (Topic 718)842), Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting. Its objective is to simplify several aspects ofusing the accounting modified retrospective method. See Note 14for 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 exchanged for tax-withholding purposes as a financing activity. Thefurther discussion regarding Devon’s adoption of the new guidance did not materially impact the consolidated financial statements for the nine months ended September 30, 2017leases standard.

(Unaudited)

The SEC released Final Rule No. 33 -10532, Disclosure Update and Simplification, which amends various SEC disclosure requirements determined to be redundant, duplicative, overlapping, outdated or 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 amountsuperseded as part of step twothe SEC’s ongoing disclosure effectiveness initiative. The rule was effective November 5, 2018. The rule amended numerous SEC rules, items and forms covering a diverse group of topics. Devon has implemented these required changes which generally reduced or eliminated disclosures. Devon adopted the goodwill impairment test. Under ASU 2017-04, an entity should perform its goodwill impairment test by comparingrequirement of presenting current and comparative quarterly stockholders’ equity roll forwards in the fair valuefirst quarter of 2019.

The SEC released Final Rule Release No. 33-10618, FAST Act Modernization and Simplification of Regulation S-K, which amends Regulation S-K to modernize and simplify certain disclosure requirements in a 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 shouldmanner that reduces costs and burdens on registrants while continuing to provide all material information to investors. The rule became effective May 2, 2019. The rule amended numerous SEC rules, items and forms covering a diverse group of topics, primarily focusing on reducing or eliminating disclosures. Other than presentation, this adoption did not 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 nohave a material impact on theDevon’s 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 Customers2018-13, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 606)820): Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement. This ASU will supersede the revenue recognitioneliminate, add and modify certain disclosure requirements in Topic 605, Revenue Recognition and industry-specific guidance in Subtopic 932-605, Extractive Activities – Oil and Gas – Revenue Recognition. Thisfor fair value measurement. The 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,January 1, 2020, with early adoption permitted in 2017. Devon has not early adopted this ASU.for either the entire standard or only the provisions that eliminate or modify requirements. The ASU is requiredrequires the additional disclosure requirements to be adopted using eithera retrospective approach. Devon is currently evaluating the retrospective transition method, which requires restating previously reported results orprovisions of this ASU and assessing the cumulative effect (modified retrospective) transition method, which utilizes a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earningsimpact it may have on its disclosures in the period of adoptionnotes 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 statements of earnings, equity or cash flows. However, Devon continues to evaluate the “gross versus net” presentation of certain revenues and associated expenses in its consolidated statements of earnings. Any presentation changes would have no impact on operating income, earnings or cash flows. Devon does not expect significant changes to its annual disclosures; however, Devon’s quarterly disclosures will expand upon adoption of this ASU. Devon has implemented a process to gather and provide the quarterly disclosures required by the ASU.

2.Divestitures

In February 2019, Devon announced its intent to separate its Canadian business and related disclosures. Recently,Barnett Shale assets from the FASB issued Proposed Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2017-290, Leases (Topic 842)Company, based on authorizations provided by its Board of Directors. On June 27, 2019, Devon completed the sale of all of its operating assets and operations in Canada to Canadian Natural Resources Limited for proceeds, net of purchase price adjustments, of $2.6 billion ($3.4 billion Canadian dollars), Land Easement Practical Expedient for Transition to Topic 842and recognized a pre-tax gain of $189 million ($460 million, net of tax). This proposed ASU would permit an entity not to apply Topic 842 to land easements and rights-of-way that exist or expired before the effective date of Topic 842 and that were not previously assessed under Topic 840.An entity would continue to apply its current accounting policy for accounting for land easements that existed before the effective date of Topic 842. Once an entity adopts Topic 842, it would apply that Topic prospectively to all new (or modified) land easements and rights-of-way to determine whether the arrangement should be accounted for asAs a lease. For Devon, these contracts represent a relatively small percentagepart of the aggregate value of contracts being evaluated but represent a significant number of contracts.

Based on continuing research, Devon estimates a large number of contracts and data elements must be gathered and reviewed to ensure proper accounting of these contracts once this ASU is effective. Devon anticipates the adoption of this standard will significantly impact its consolidated financial statements, 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 statement of earnings. 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 presentation changes in the statement of earnings 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 $16transaction, $436 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

Devon Acquisitions

asset retirement obligations were assumed by Canadian Natural Resources Limited. In January 2016, Devon acquired approximately 80,000 net acres (unaudited) and assets inaggregate, 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.

2017 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. Through September 30, 2017, Devon completed divestiture transactions totaling approximately $400 million, before purchase price adjustments. Estimatedtotal estimated proved reserves associated with these assets were approximately 400 MMBoe, or 21% of total proved reserves. In conjunction with the Canadian divestiture, Devon recognized $273 million of restructuring and asset impairment related charges. These costs relate to personnel, office lease abandonment and a firm transportation agreement abandonment. Additional information on these discontinued operations can be found in Note 18.

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

In the first quarter of 2019, Devon received proceeds of approximately $300 million and recognized a $44 million net gain on asset dispositions, primarily from sales of non-core assets in the Permian Basin. In aggregate, the total estimated proved reserves associated with these divested assets were approximately 25 MMBoe, or less than 1%2% of total U.S. proved reserves. As of December

During the second quarter of 2016,2018, Devon divested non-coresold a portion of its Barnett Shale assets, primarily located in Johnson County for approximately $200$553 million. Estimated proved reserves associated with these assets were less than 1%approximately 10% of total U.S. proved reserves.

In the third quarter of 2016, The transaction resulted in several separate transactionsan adjustment to Devon’s capitalized costs with different purchasers, Devon divested non-core upstream assets located in east Texas, the Anadarko Basin and the Midland Basin for approximately $1.7 billion. Estimated proved reserves associated with these assets were approximately 146 MMBoe, or approximately 9% of total U.S. proved reserves.

Proceeds from the transactions were used primarily for debt repayment and to support capital investment in Devon’s core resource plays.

The divestiture transactions that closedno gain recognized in the third quarterconsolidated statement of 2016 significantly altered the costs and reserves relationship of Devon’s U.S. cost center. Therefore, Devon recognized a $1.4 billion gain in the third quarter of 2016 associated with these divestitures. A summary of the gain computation follows.

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 fundedconjunction with the issuance of EnLink preferred units. The remaining $500divestiture, Devon settled certain gas processing contracts and recognized an approximately $40 million ofsettlement expense, which is included in asset dispositions within 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.

In August 2016, EnLink formed a joint venture to operate and expand its midstream assets in the Delaware Basin. The joint venture is initially owned 50.1% by EnLink and 49.9% by the joint venture partner. EnLink contributed approximately $244 million of existing non-monetary assets to the joint venture and committed an additional $262 million in capital to fund potential future development projects and potential acquisitions. The joint venture partner committed an aggregate of approximately $400 million of capital, including initial cash contributions of approximately $138 million, and granted EnLink call rights beginning in 2021 to acquire increasing portions of the joint venture partner’s interest.

EnLink Asset Divestitures

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

Derivative Financial3.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 enterenters into derivative financial instruments with respect to a portion of theirits 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.volatility. As of SeptemberJune 30, 2017,2019, Devon did not have any open foreign exchangeinterest rate swap contracts.

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

Counterparty Credit Risk

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

Commodity Derivatives

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 below presents the effects of share-based compensation expense included in Devon’s accompanying consolidated comprehensive statements of earnings. Gross G&A expense for the first nine months of 2017 and 2016 includes $28 million and $18 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 nine months ended September 30, 2016, approximately $60 million of associated expense for these accelerated awards6 and is included in restructuring and transaction costs in the accompanying consolidated comprehensive statements of earnings.

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 onrestructuring expenses during the first daysix months of each of the previous 12 months.

The oil and gas impairments in 20162019. Of these expenses, $24 million 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 goodwill impairments. See Note 12 for additional details.

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

Throughout 2016 and throughIn the second quarter of 2019, the deferred tax asset representing Devon’s U.S. state net operating loss that is subject to a valuation allowance increased by $11 million from the first nine monthsquarter of 2017, Devon continued to maintain a 100%2019. The corresponding increase in the valuation allowance against its U.S.the state net operating loss resulted in a 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 $796 million to the U.S. segment valuation allowanceexpense, which is included within state income taxes in the first nine months of 2016 based on the financial loss recorded during the period. Also, during the third quarter of 2016, Devon’s Canadian segment recorded a $71 million partial valuation allowance. Devon reduced its U.S. segment valuation allowance by $348 million in the first nine months of 2017 based on the financial income recorded during the period.table above.

Also inIn the table above, the “other” effect is primarily composed of permanent differences for which dollar amounts do not increase or decrease in relation to the change in pre-tax earnings. Generally, such items have an insignificant impact on ourDevon’s effective income tax rate. However, these items havehad a more noticeable impact to ourthe rate in the third quarterfirst six months of 20172019 due to lowerthe low relative earningsnet loss during the period. During the third quarter of 2017, “other” is primarily related to the taxation of foreign earnings and other financing items.

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.

(Unaudited)

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

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

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

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.

Asset Divestitures

During the third quarter of 2016, Devon derecognized $197 million of goodwill in conjunction with the upstream oil and gas asset divestitures discussed in Note 2.

Credit Lines

Devon has a $3.0 billion Senior Credit Facility. As of SeptemberJune 30, 2017,2019, Devon had $59 million in outstanding letters of credit under the Senior Credit Facility. There were no outstanding borrowings under the Senior Credit Facility at September 30, 2017.and had issued $3 million in outstanding letters of credit under this facility. The Senior Credit Facility contains only one material financial covenant. This covenant requires Devon’s ratio of total funded debt to total capitalization, as defined in the credit agreement, to be no greater than 65%. Under the terms of the credit agreement, total capitalization is adjusted to add back noncash financial write-downs such as full cost ceiling impairments or goodwill impairments. As of SeptemberJune 30, 2017,2019, Devon was in compliance with this covenant with a debt-to-capitalization ratio of 18.9%23.4%.

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

Retirement of Senior Notes

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

In the thirdfirst quarter of 2016,2018, Devon completed tender offers to repurchase $1.2 billion$807 million in aggregate principal amount of debt securities, using proceeds fromcash on hand. This included $384 million of the asset divestitures discussed in Note 2.7.875% senior notes due September 30, 2031 and $423 million of the 7.95% senior notes due April 15, 2032. Devon recognized a $312 million loss on early retirement of debt, primarily consisting of $82$304 million in cash retirement costs and other fees.$8 million of noncash charges. These costs, along with other minimal noncash charges associated with retiring the debt, are included in net financing costs in the consolidated comprehensive statements of earnings.

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 September 30, 2017, there were $9 million in outstanding letters of credit and no outstanding borrowings under the $1.5 billion credit facility. The General Partner has a $250 million secured revolving credit facility. As of September 30, 2017, the General Partner had $74 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 September 30, 2017.

In the second quarter of 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 the second quarter of 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 during the second quarter of 2017. The gain is included in net financing costs in the consolidated comprehensive statement of earnings.

2314.Leases

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

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

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

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

Noncontrolling InterestsDiscontinued Operations and Assets Held For Sale

Subsidiary Equity Transactions

EnLink has the ability

Canada

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

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

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

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

As announced on June 27, 2019, Devon utilized a portion of the sales proceeds to early retire its $500 million of the 4.00% senior notes due July 15, 2021 and $1.0 billion of the 3.25% senior notes due May 15, 2022. Devon expects to recognize a loss on the early retirement of these notes in the third quarter of 2017, 2019 consisting of $52 million in cash retirement costs and $6 million of noncash charges.

EnLink

On June 6, 2018, Devon announced that it had entered into additional equity distribution agreementsan agreement to sell up to $600 millionits aggregate ownership interests in common units through its programs. Future common units that EnLink issues will be issued under the new equity distribution agreement. During the first nine months of 2017, EnLink issued and sold 5 million common units through its programs and generated $92 million in net proceeds.

In September 2017, EnLink issued 400,000 preferred units through an underwritten public offering for net proceeds of approximately $394 million.

During the first nine months of 2016, EnLink issued and sold 7 million common units for net proceeds of $110 million. In conjunction with its acquisition of Anadarko Basin gathering and processing midstream assets during the first quarter of 2016, EnLink issued preferred units as discussed in Note 2.

As of September 30, 2017, Devon’s ownership interest in EnLink was 23%, excluding the interest held by the General Partner. Devon’s controlling ownership interest in the General Partner as of September 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 $247 millionfor $3.125 billion. Upon entering into the agreement to sell its ownership interest in June 2018, Devon concluded that the transaction was a strategic shift and $224 millionmet the requirements of assets held for sale and discontinued operations. As a result, Devon classified the results of operations and cash flows related to non-Devon unitholders duringEnLink and the General Partner as discontinued operations on its consolidated financial statements.

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

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

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

During the first ninesix months of 20172019, Devon had net outflows of approximately $280 million with EnLink, which primarily related to gathering and 2016, respectively.processing expenses. These net outflows represent gross cash amounts and not net working interest amounts.

Commitments and Contingencies

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

Royalty Matters

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

Environmental Matters

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

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

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

Other Matters

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

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, cash restricted for discontinued operations, accounts receivable, other current receivables, accounts payable, other current payables, and accrued expenses and lease liabilities included in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets approximated fair value at SeptemberJune 30, 20172019 and December 31, 2016.2018, as applicable. 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 and U.S. and Canadian treasury securities. Thethe fair value approximates the carrying value.

Level 2 Fair Value Measurements

Cash equivalents – Amounts primarily 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 valuesvalue of commodity and interest rate derivatives areis 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 value of the credit facility balance is the carrying value.

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.

DuringWe have made significant progress in our transition to “New Devon” - a U.S. oil growth company. We closed on the first nine months of 2017, we generated solid operating results with our three-fold strategy of operating in North America’s best resource plays, delivering superior execution and maintaining a high degree of financial strength. Led by our development in the STACK, 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 performancesale of our established wells. Even thoughCanadian operations and are making progress in separating our 2017 production volumesBarnett Shale assets from the Company. We are using the proceeds from the separation of these assets to maintain target debt levels as well as return cash to our shareholders. As we continue to execute on our strategic objectives of funding high-return projects, generating free cash flow, maintaining financial strength and returning cash to shareholders, we have declined from 2016 due to reduced capital investment, we estimate our highest-margin U.S. oil production from retained assets will exit 2017 at levels approximately 20% higher than year-end 2016.already achieved the following accomplishments in 2019.

 

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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 nine months of 2017. We exited the thirdsecond quarter of 20172019 with liquidity comprised of $2.8$3.8 billion of cash, inclusive of $370 million of cash restricted for discontinued operations, and $2.9$3.0 billion of available credit under our Senior Credit Facility. WeAfter completing the $1.5 billion of early retirement of debt in July 2019, we have no significantoutstanding debt maturities until 2021. At September 30, 2017, we also had2025. We currently have approximately 65%75% of our remaining 2017 forecastedexpected oil and gas production hedged atprotected with hedges for the remainder of 2019. These contracts consist of collars and swaps based off the WTI oil benchmark and the Henry Hub natural gas index. Additionally, we have entered into regional basis swaps in an average flooreffort to protect price realizations across our portfolio.

Continued growth in the Delaware Basin drove production increases for New Devon in the second quarter of 2019 compared to the first quarter of 2019. These production gains were slightly offset by lower production volumes associated with the U.S. resource base. Through September 30, 2017, we have closed non-core divestitures totaling approximately $400 million under this program.divest assets.

We recently unveiled our “2020 Vision,” which is a strategic plan through the end of the decade intended to deliver top-tier returns on invested capital, while delivering sustainable, long-term growth for our business. We plan to attain leading returns with our 2020 Vision by pursing the following objectives:

1.

Disciplined capital allocation that builds scale in the STACK and Delaware Basin.

2.

Maximize returns by growing higher-value liquids production and lowering operating expenses with a technology focus across all areas of the business.

3.

Further high-grade portfolio with monetization of several billion dollars of assets.

4.

Reduce debt balances.

5.

Return cash to shareholders.

Commodity sales increased in the third quarter and the first nine months of 2017 due to 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 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 increases 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, production from our retained U.S. assets, other than STACK, steadily declined throughout 2016 and into 2017. Our 2016 asset divestiture program also caused our volumes to decline significantly in the third and fourth quarters of 2016. Additionally, Hurricane Harvey negatively impacted our third quarter 2017 production in the Eagle Ford as we temporarily suspended operations.

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 ourRealized oil, gas and NGL prices with,decreased primarily due to lower Henry Hub and without,Mont Belvieu index prices and widening natural gas differentials in the effects ofPermian Basin and STACK which are partially mitigated by our regional natural gas basis swaps. These decreases were slightly offset by a 9% improvement in the cash settlements. The prices do not include the effects of fair value gains and losses.WTI index price.

The overall increaseWe recognized gains in marketing and midstream operating margin during the third quarter and the first nine 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.

Asset Dispositions and Other

          In conjunction with the non-core upstreamcertain of our U.S. asset divestitures, we recognized a gain during the third quarter of 2016.dispositions in 2019. For further discussion, see Note 2 in “Part I. Financial Information – Item 1. Financial Statements” ofin this report.

Total LOE and LOE per Boe increased during the third quarter of 2017 primarily due to higher transportation of $38 million resulting from tolls on Canada’s Access Pipeline of $27 million, which commenced in the fourth quarter of 2016 subsequent to the sale of our interest in the pipeline, and continued development of the STACK.

Total LOE decreased during the first nine months of 2017 primarily due to our non-core U.S. property divestitures during 2016 and continued well optimization and cost reduction initiatives across our portfolio which have offset industry inflation. These initiatives have been primarily focused on reducing costs associated with water disposal, power and fuel, compression and workovers. These cost savings and non-core divestitures impact were partially offset by Access Pipeline transportation tolls of $87 million during the first nine months of 2017, which was the primary driver of the increase in total LOE per Boe.

Gross G&A increased during the third quarter of 2017 due to an increase in costs related to automation and process improvement initiatives and decreased the first nine months of 2017 largely due to lower Devon employee costs resulting from our 2016 workforce reduction and other cost reduction initiatives. During the first nine months of 2017, reimbursed G&A decreased primarily due to the divestitures of operated properties in 2016. EnLink net G&A increased during the third quarter and for the first nine months of 2017 primarily due to higher employee compensation costs.

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.

During the first ninesix months of 2017, property2019, we recognized restructuring and other taxes decreasedtransaction costs 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.

workforce reductions. See Table of Contents

DD&A from our oil and gas properties decreased in the third quarter primarily due to lower production and decreased during the first nine 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 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 and gathering system expansions in 2017.

Asset Impairments

During the third quarter and the first nine months of 2016, we recognized asset impairments totaling $319 million and $4.9 billion, respectively. For further discussion, see Note 56 in “Part I.

Canada revenues increased in the second quarter of 2019 compared to the first quarter of 2019 due to increased realized prices partially offset by lower production volumes. Canadian production decreased during the thirdsecond quarter andof 2019 compared to the first nine monthsquarter of 20172019 primarily due to scheduled turnaround at the 2016 repaymentJackfish 2 facility and recording four less days of $2.5 billion in borrowings, including scheduled maturities and early retirements fundedproduction due to the divestiture close date.

In conjunction with asset divestiture proceeds.

EnLink’s interest on debt outstanding increasedthe sale of our Canadian business during the thirdsecond quarter and the first nine months of 2017 due to increased borrowings. In the first nine months of 2017, EnLink2019, we recognized a pre-tax gain of $189 million as well as restructuring and transaction costs and related asset impairment charges of $273 million.

We continueResults of Operations –2019 vs. 2018

The following graphs, discussion and analysis are intended to expect lowprovide an understanding of our results of operations and current income tax ratesfinancial condition. To facilitate the review, these numbers are being presented before consideration of earnings attributable to noncontrolling interests.

Q2 2019 vs. Q2 2018

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

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

Net earnings increased $830 million during the second quarter of 2019 compared to the second quarter of 2018. The increase primarily related to a $460 million increase in upstream operations, a $228 million change in other items and a $168 million increase in discontinued operations. Upstream operations increased primarily due to a $627 million gain on valuation changes and cash settlements for commodity derivatives, partially offset by a $229 million lower field price effect primarily related to our oil and NGL production. Other items increased primarily due to $154 million of asset impairments and $85 million of restructuring charges recognized in the U.S. segment basedsecond quarter of 2018. During the second quarter of 2019, earnings from discontinued operations increased due to recognizing a gain on the disposition of our continuing net operating loss position. ForCanadian business partially offset by related restructuring and asset impairment charges as further discussion on income taxes, see discussed in Note 718 in “Part I. Financial Information – Item 1. Financial Statements” ofin this report.

Table of Contents

Net earnings increased $666 million during the six months ended 2019 compared to the same period in 2018. The increase primarily related to a $327 million decrease in financing costs, a $177 million change in other items, a $142 million increase in discontinued operations, a $72 million decrease in exploration expense, partially offset by a $127 million increase in DD&A. Financing costs decreased primarily from $312 million of early retirement costs associated with our $800 million debt retirement in 2018. Other items decreased due to $154 million of asset impairments recognized in 2018 and an approximately $45 million gain recognized during 2019. During the second quarter of 2019, earnings from discontinued operations increased due to recognizing a gain on the disposition of our Canadian business partially offset by related restructuring and asset impairment charges further discussed in Note 18 in “Part I. Financial Information – Item 1. Financial Statements” in this report. Exploration expense decreased due to unproved asset impairments of $61 million during 2018.

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

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

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

Operating Cash Flow

Net

As presented in the table above, net cash provided by operating activities increased 96% primarily duecontinued to significantly higher commodity prices as compared to the first nine monthsbe a significant source of 2016.

Our consolidated operatingcapital and liquidity. Operating cash flow nearly funded 100%all of our capital expenditures during the first ninethree months and six months of 2017. In 2016, leveraging our liquidity, we also used2019. We utilized available cash balances and divestiture proceeds fromto supplement our common stock offeringoperating cash flows and non-core asset divestitures to fund our acquisitionsother investing and capital expenditures.financing cash uses.

Divestitures of Property and EquipmentOperating Cash Flow

During the first nine months of 2017, as part of our announced divestiture program, we sold non-core U.S. assets for approximately $320 million, net of customary purchase price adjustments. During the first nine months of 2016, we divested certain non-core upstream assets in the U.S. for approximately $1.9 billion. For further discussion, see Note 2 in “Part 1. Financial Information – Item 1. Financial Statements” in this report.

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.

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 withinliquidity. Operating cash flow and maintaining significant flexibility. Ournearly funded all of our capital investment program is driven by a disciplined allocation process focused on returns.

Capital expenditures for 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 nine 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 nine months of 2017, consolidated net debt borrowings increased $252 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. In June 2017, EnLink redeemed its 7.125% senior unsecured notes due in 2022 for aggregate cash consideration of $174 million. Additionally, EnLink reduced its credit facility borrowings $74 million during the first ninethree months and six months of 2017.

During the first nine months of 2016, our consolidated net debt borrowings decreased $1.8 billion. The decrease was primarily due2019. We utilized available cash balances and divestiture proceeds to completed tender offers to purchase and redeem $1.2 billion of debt securities. For additional information, see Note 14 in “Part I. Financial Information – Item 1. Financial Statements” in this report. The remaining decrease was due to reducing our commercial paper balances by $626 million during the first nine months of 2016.

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.

EnLink and the General Partner distributed $247 million and $224 million to non-Devon unitholders during the first nine months of 2017 and 2016, respectively.

EnLink and General Partner Distributions

Devon received $199 million in distributions from EnLink and the General Partner during the first nine months of 2017 and 2016.

Issuance of Subsidiary Units

During the first nine months of 2017, EnLink issued and sold 5 million common units through its “at the market” programs and generated $92 million in net proceeds. In September 2017, EnLink issued preferred units in an underwritten public offering generating net proceeds of approximately $394 million.

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. Additionally, during the first nine months of 2016, EnLink issued and sold 7 million common units for net proceeds of $110 million through its “at the market” programs.

Liquidity

Our primary sources of capital and liquidity aresupplement our operating cash flow, asset divestiture proceedsflows and fund other investing and financing 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.uses.

Operating Cash Flow

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

Divestitures of Property and Equipment

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

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

In conjunction with the tender offers, we recognized a $312 million loss on the early retirement of debt, including $304 million of cash retirement costs and fees. For additional information, see Note 13 in “Part I. Financial Information – Item 1. Financial Statements” in this report.

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

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

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

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

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

Liquidity

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

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

Operating Cash Flow

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

Commodity Prices – The most uncertain and volatile of whichvariables for our operating cash flow are the prices of the oil, bitumen, gas and NGLs we produce and sell. Our consolidated operating cash flow increased approximately $1.2 billionPrices are determined primarily by prevailing market conditions. Regional and worldwide economic activity, weather and other substantially variable factors influence market conditions for these products. These factors, which are difficult to predict, create volatility in the first nine months of 2017 compared to the first nine 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 adjustprices and are beyond our capital program to invest within our operating cash flow. Furthermore, proceeds from non-core asset divestitures will provide additional liquidity as needed.control.

Table of Contents

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

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

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

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

Divestitures of Property and Equipment

In February 2019, we announced the separation of our Canadian and Barnett Shale businesses. In June 2019, we completed the sale of our Canadian operations for $2.6 billion ($3.4 billion Canadian dollars) and are progressing on the separation of our Barnett Shale assets. For additional information, on our derivative positions in place at September 30, 2017, see Note 32 in “Part I. Financial Information – Item 1. Financial Statements” in this report.

Divestitures of Property and Equipment

          In May 2017, we announced a program to divest approximately $1 billion of upstream assets. These 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. Through September 30, 2017, Devon completed divestiture transactions totaling approximately $400 million, before purchase price adjustments. The most significant asset remaining in this program is select Barnett Shale leasehold. Data rooms for the Barnett properties opened in September 2017 and initial bids are expected during the fourth quarter of 2017.

Capital Expenditures

Excluding EnLink, our 2017 capital expenditures areOur exploration and development budget for the remainder of 2019 is expected to range from $2.4$0.8 billion to $2.5$0.9 billion, including $2.0 billion to $2.1 billion forexcluding capital associated with our exploration and development capital program. Our capital expenditures excluding EnLink were $1.7 billion in the first nine months of 2017 and are forecasted to range from $0.7 billion to $0.8 billion in the fourth quarter of 2017.Barnett Shale assets.

Credit Availability

We have a $3.0 billion Senior Credit Facility. As of SeptemberJune 30, 2017,2019, we had approximately $2.9$3.0 billion of available borrowings under this facility, net of $59 million in outstanding letters of credit, and were in compliance with the facility’s financial covenant.our Senior Credit Facility. This credit facility supports our $3.0 billion of short-term credit under our commercial paper program. At SeptemberJune 30, 2017,2019, there were no borrowings under our commercial paper program.

In January 2017, EnLink paid the first $250 million installment payment related to the 2016 Anadarko Basin gathering and processing midstream assets acquisition. The remaining $250 million installment payment is payable by January 2018.Senior Credit Facility.

Debt Ratings

We receive debt ratings from the major ratings agencies in the U.S. In determining our debt ratings, the agencies consider a number of qualitative and quantitative items including, but not limited to, commodity pricing levels, our liquidity, asset quality, reserve mix, debt levels, cost structure, planned asset sales and near-term and long-term production growth opportunities. Our credit rating from Standard and Poor’s Financial Services is BBB with a stablenegative outlook. In March 2017,Our credit rating from Fitch Ratings affirmed ouris BBB+ with a negative outlook. Our credit rating and revised our outlook to stable from negative. In April 2017, Moody’s Investor Service upgraded our credit rating from Ba2 tois Ba1 with a stablepositive 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 anyShare Repurchase Program

In February 2019, our Board of Directors authorized an expansion of our or EnLink’s contractual debt obligations that would accelerate scheduled maturities should a debt rating fall below a specified level. However, these downgrades could adversely impact our and EnLink’s interest rate on any credit facility borrowings andpre-existing share repurchase program by an additional $1.0 billion to $5.0 billion. The share repurchase program expires December 31, 2019. Through July 31, 2019, we had executed $4.4 billion of the ability to economically access debt markets in the future.authorized program.

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 ifOn June 27, 2019, we deem it is more likely than not that some portion ordivested all of our Canadian operating assets. Our foreign earnings have not been considered indefinitely reinvested since the deferred taxannouncement of the plan to separate the assets will not be realized. At September 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 basedfirst quarter of 2019. For additional information see Note 7 in “Part I. Financial Information – Item 1. Financial Statements” in this report.

For additional information regarding our critical accounting policies and estimates, see our 2018 Annual Report on the progress of ongoing audits, changes in legislation or resolution of other pending matters.Form 10-K.

Non-GAAP Measures

We make reference to “core earnings (loss) attributable to Devon” and “core earnings (loss) per share attributable to Devon” in “Overview of 20172019 Results” in this Item 2.2 that are not required by or presented in accordance with GAAP. These non-GAAP measures are not alternatives to GAAP measures and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our results reported under GAAP. Core earnings (loss) attributable to Devon, as well as the per share amount, represent net earnings excluding certain noncash and other items that are typically excluded by securities analysts in their published estimates of our financial results. For more information on the results of discontinued operations for our Canadian operations and for EnLink and the General Partner, see Note 18 in “Part I. Financial Information – Item 1. Financial Statements” in this report. Our non-GAAP measures are typically used as a quarterly performance measure. Amounts excluded for the third quarter and first nine months of 2017 relate to changes in derivatives and financial instrument fair values and foreign currency, gains and losses on asset sales, dispositions, noncash asset impairments gains(including noncash unproved asset impairments), deferred tax asset valuation allowance, costs associated with early retirement of debt, and deferred tax asset valuation allowance. Amounts excluded for the third quarter and first nine months of 2016 relate tofair value changes in derivatives andderivative financial instrument fair valuesinstruments and foreign currency, noncash asset impairments (including an impairment of goodwill),settlements related to minimum volume contract commitments, restructuring and transaction costs gains on asset sales,associated with the workforce reductions in 2019 and 2018 and restructuring and transaction costs associated with the early retirementdivestment of debt and deferred tax asset valuation allowance. our Canadian operations in 2019.

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

EBITDAX and Field-Level Cash Margin

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

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

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

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

Item 3. Quantitative and QualitativeQualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Commodity Price Risk

As of SeptemberJune 30, 2017,2019, we have commodity derivatives that pertain to a portion of our estimated production for the last threesix months of 2017,2019, as well as 2018 and 2019.for 2020. The key terms to our open oil, gas and NGL derivative financial instruments are presented in Note 3in “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 SeptemberJune 30, 2017,2019, a 10% change in the forward curves associated with our commodity derivative instruments would have changed our net asset positions by approximately $170$180 million.

Interest Rate Risk

As of SeptemberJune 30, 2017,2019, we had total debt of $10.4$5.8 billion. OfAll of this amount, $10.3 billion bearsdebt was based on fixed interest rates averaging 5.3%,5.4%. Total debt is inclusive of the $1.5 billion of debt that was reclassified to liabilities associated with discontinued operations at June 30, 2019 and $74 million is comprised of floating rate debt with interest rates averaging 3.2%.

As of September 30, 2017, we had open interest rate swap positions that are presentedretired early in July 2019. See Note 318 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 September 30, 2017.report for additional information.

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 theDevon has certain Canadian dollar functional currency. Assets and liabilitiesobligations resulting from its divestment of its Canadian operations which are to be paid with the Canadian subsidiariescash restricted for discontinued operations. These balances are translated to U.S. dollarsremeasured 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 SeptemberJune 30, 20172019 balance sheet.sheet for these items. See Note 18 in “Part I. Financial Information – Item 1. Financial Statements” in this report for additional information.

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 SeptemberJune 30, 20172019 to ensure that the information required to be disclosed by Devon in the reports that it files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC rules and forms.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

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

PART II. Other Information

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

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

In addition to shares purchased under the share repurchase program described below, these amounts also included 108,000 shares received by us from employees for the payment of personal income tax withholding on vesting transactions.

(2)

On March 7, 2018, we announced a $1.0 billion share repurchase program. On June 6, 2018, we announced the expansion of this program to $4.0 billion. On February 19, 2019, we announced a further expansion to $5.0 billion with a December 31, 2019 expiration date. As of June 30, 2019, we had repurchased 120.2 million common shares for $4.2 billion, or $34.62 per share, under our share repurchases program. Future purchases under the program will be made in open market, private transactions or through the use of ASR programs.

Under the Devon Plan, eligible employees may purchasemade purchases of shares of our common stock through an investment in the Devon Stock Fund, which is administered by an independent trustee. Eligible employees purchased approximately 10,4008,800 shares of our common stock in the thirdsecond quarter of 2017,2019, at then-prevailing stock prices, that they held through their ownership in the Stock Fund. We acquired the shares of our common stock sold under the Devon Plan through open-market purchases.

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.
