NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
1. |
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies |
The accompanying unaudited interim financial statements and notes of Devon have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC. Pursuant to such rules and regulations, certain disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been omitted. The accompanying unaudited interim financial statements and notes should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes included in Devon’s 2018 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
The accompanying unaudited interim financial statements in this report reflect all adjustments that are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair statement of Devon’s results of operations and cash flows for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2019 and 2018 and Devon’s financial position as of March 31, 2019. As further discussed in Note 19, Devon sold its interests in EnLink and the General Partner on July 18, 2018. Activity relating to EnLink and the General Partner are classified as discontinued operations within Devon’s consolidated comprehensive statements of earnings and consolidated statements of cash flows.
Recently Adopted Accounting Standards
In January 2019, Devon adopted ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), using the modified retrospective method. See Note 15 for further discussion regarding Devon’s adoption of the leases standard.
The SEC released Final Rule No. 33 -10532, Disclosure Update and Simplification, which amends various SEC disclosure requirements determined to be redundant, duplicative, overlapping, outdated or superseded as part of the SEC’s ongoing disclosure effectiveness initiative. The rule was effective November 5, 2018. The rule amended numerous SEC rules, items and forms covering a diverse group of topics. Devon has implemented these required changes which generally reduced or eliminated disclosures. Devon adopted the requirement of presenting current and comparative quarterly stockholders’ equity roll forwards in the first quarter of 2019.
Issued Accounting Standards Not Yet Adopted
The FASB issued ASU 2018-13, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement. This ASU will eliminate, add and modify certain disclosure requirements for fair value measurement. The ASU is effective for annual and interim periods beginning January 1, 2020, with early adoption permitted for either the entire standard or only the provisions that eliminate or modify requirements. The ASU requires the additional disclosure requirements to be adopted using a retrospective approach. Devon is currently evaluating the provisions of this ASU and assessing the impact it may have on its disclosures in the notes to the consolidated financial statements.
The FASB issued ASU 2018-15, Intangibles, Goodwill and Other Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Customer’s Accounting for Implementation Costs Incurred in a Cloud Computing Arrangement that is a Service Contract. This ASU will require a customer in a cloud computing arrangement (i.e., hosting arrangement) that is a service contract to follow the internal-use software guidance in ASC 350-40 to determine which implementation costs to capitalize as assets or expense as incurred. Capitalized implementation costs related to a hosting arrangement that is a service contract will be amortized over the term of the hosting arrangement, beginning when the module or component of the hosting arrangement is ready for its intended use. This ASU is effective for annual and interim periods beginning January 1, 2020, with early adoption permitted. Entities have the option to adopt the ASU using either a retrospective approach or a prospective approach applied to all implementation costs incurred after the date of the adoption. Devon is currently evaluating the provisions of this ASU and assessing the impact it may have on its consolidated financial statements.
The SEC released Final Rule Release No. 33-10618, FAST Act Modernization and Simplification of Regulation S-K, which amends Regulation S-K to modernize and simplify certain disclosure requirements in a manner that reduces costs and burdens on registrants while continuing to provide all material information to investors. The rule is effective May 2, 2019. The rule amends numerous SEC rules, items and forms covering a diverse group of topics. As the changes are generally expected to reduce or eliminate disclosures, Devon is currently evaluating and assessing the impact it may have on its disclosures.

2.Divestitures
2019 Asset Divestitures
In the first quarter of 2019, Devon received proceeds of approximately $
In February 2019, Devon announced its intent to separate its Canadian business and Barnett Shale assets from the Company, based on authorizations provided by its Board of Directors. Devon is evaluating multiple methods of separation for these assets, including potential sales or spin-offs. As of March 31, 2019, Devon does not currently have any indications that it would recognize an impairment upon separating its Canadian business or its Barnett Shale assets.
Devon anticipates reporting all financial information for its Canadian business and Barnett Shale assets as discontinued operations in 2019 when all the requisite criteria are met for such financial statement presentation.
3.Derivative Financial Instruments
Objectives and Strategies
Devon enters into derivative financial instruments with respect to a portion of its oil, gas and NGL production to hedge future prices received. Additionally, Devon periodically enters into derivative financial instruments with respect to a portion of its oil, gas and NGL marketing activities. These commodity derivative financial instruments include financial price swaps, basis swaps and costless price collars. Devon periodically enters into interest rate swaps to manage its exposure to interest rate volatility and foreign exchange forward contracts to manage its exposure to fluctuations in the U.S. and Canadian dollar exchange rates. As of March 31, 2019, Devon did not have any open interest rate swap or foreign exchange contracts.
Devon does not intend to hold or issue derivative financial instruments for speculative trading purposes and has elected not to designate any of its derivative instruments for hedge accounting treatment.
Counterparty Credit Risk
By using derivative financial instruments, Devon is exposed to credit risk. Credit risk is the failure of the counterparty to perform under the terms of the derivative contract. To mitigate this risk, the hedging instruments are placed with a number of counterparties whom Devon believes are acceptable credit risks. It is Devon’s policy to enter into derivative contracts only with investment-grade rated counterparties deemed by management to be competent and competitive market makers. Additionally, Devon’s derivative contracts generally contain provisions that provide for collateral payments if Devon’s or its counterparty’s credit rating falls below certain credit rating levels.
Commodity Derivatives
As of March 31, 2019, Devon had the following open oil derivative positions. The first two tables present Devon’s oil derivatives that settle against the average of the prompt month NYMEX WTI futures price. The third table presents Devon’s oil derivatives that settle against the respective indices noted within the table.

Foreign exchange (gain) loss, net
The U.S. dollar is the functional currency for Devon’s consolidated operations except its Canadian subsidiaries, which use the Canadian dollar as the functional currency. The amounts in the table above include both unrealized and realized foreign exchange impacts of foreign currency denominated monetary assets and liabilities, including intercompany loans between subsidiaries with different functional currencies. Unrealized gains and losses arise from the remeasurement of these foreign currency denominated monetary assets and liabilities and intercompany loans. Realized gains and losses arise when there are settlements of these foreign currency denominated monetary assets and liabilities and intercompany loans.

Devon estimates its annual effective income tax rate to record its quarterly provision for income taxes in the various jurisdictions in which it operates. Statutory tax rate changes and other significant or unusual items are recognized as discrete items in the quarter in which they occur.
In the table above, the “other” effect is primarily composed of permanent differences for which dollar amounts do not increase or decrease in relation to the change in pre-tax earnings. Generally, such items have an insignificant impact on Devon’s effective income tax rate. However, these items had a more noticeable impact to the rate in the first three months of 2018 due to the low relative net loss during the period.
In the first quarter of 2019, the deferred tax asset representing Devon’s U.S. state net operating loss subject to a valuation allowance decreased by $
As of the first quarter of 2018, Devon’s U.S. segment maintained a
During the first quarter of 2019, Devon announced its intent to separate all Canadian assets. As a result, Devon’s foreign earnings were no longer considered indefinitely reinvested as of March 31, 2019. However, the deferred tax asset of its Canadian investment will not be recorded until the form of the separation is certain.

15.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 $
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.

Commitments and Contingencies |
Devon is party to various legal actions arising in the normal course of business. Matters that are probable of unfavorable outcome to Devon and which can be reasonably estimated are accrued. Such accruals are based on information known about the matters, Devon’s estimates of the outcomes of such matters and its experience in contesting, litigating and settling similar matters. None of the actions are believed by management to likely involve future amounts that would be material to Devon’s financial position or results of operations after consideration of recorded accruals. Actual amounts could differ materially from management’s estimates.
Royalty Matters
Numerous oil and natural gas producers and related parties, including Devon, have been named in various lawsuits alleging royalty underpayments. Devon is currently named as a defendant in a number of such lawsuits, including some lawsuits in which the plaintiffs seek to certify classes of similarly situated plaintiffs. Among the allegations typically asserted in these suits are claims that Devon used below-market prices, made improper deductions, used improper measurement techniques and entered into gas purchase and processing arrangements with affiliates that resulted in underpayment of royalties in connection with oil, natural gas and NGLs produced and sold. Devon is also involved in governmental agency proceedings and royalty audits and is subject to related contracts and regulatory controls in the ordinary course of business, some that may lead to additional royalty claims. Devon does not currently believe that it is subject to material exposure with respect to such royalty matters.

Environmental Matters
Devon is subject to certain laws and regulations relating to environmental remediation activities associated with past operations, such as the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act and similar state statutes. In response to liabilities associated with these activities, loss accruals primarily consist of estimated uninsured remediation costs. Devon’s monetary exposure for environmental matters is not expected to be material.
Beginning in 2013, various parishes in Louisiana filed suit against more than
Other Matters
Devon is involved in other various legal proceedings incidental to its business. However, to Devon’s knowledge, there were no material pending legal proceedings to which Devon is a party or to which any of its property is subject.

The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair values in the table above.
Level 1 Fair Value Measurements
Cash equivalents – Amounts consist primarily of money market investments and the fair value approximates the carrying value.
Level 2 Fair Value Measurements
Cash equivalents – Amounts primarily consist of Canadian agency and provincial securities investments. The fair value approximates the carrying value.
Commodity and interest rate derivatives – The fair value of commodity derivatives is estimated using internal discounted cash flow calculations based upon forward curves and data obtained from independent third parties for contracts with similar terms or data obtained from counterparties to the agreements.
Debt – Devon’s debt instruments do not actively trade in an established market. The fair values of its debt are estimated based on rates available for debt with similar terms and maturity.

Except for balance sheet amounts, which are presented as of period end. |
During the first three months of 2019, we made significant progress in our transition to “New Devon” - a U.S. oil growth company. We announced our intention to separate our Canadian business and our Barnett Shale assets from the Company. We anticipate using the proceeds from the separation of these assets to maintain target debt levels. As we continue to execute on our strategic objectives of funding high-return projects, generating free cash flow, maintaining financial strength and returning cash to shareholders, we have already achieved the following accomplishments in 2019.
|
• |
Increased Delaware Basin and Powder River Basin production 25% in the first quarter of 2019 compared to the fourth quarter of 2018. |
|
• |
Initiated workforce and other cost reduction initiatives targeting $200 million of annualized savings by the end of 2019 |
|
• |
Repurchased $4.0 billion of our $5.0 billion share repurchase program, representing a 20% reduction in outstanding shares since the program’s inception. |
|
• |
Increased our quarterly common stock dividend 12.5% to $0.09 per share beginning in the second quarter of 2019. |
We exited the first quarter of 2019 with liquidity comprised of $1.3 billion of cash and $2.9 billion of available credit under our Senior Credit Facility. We have no debt maturities until 2021. We currently have approximately 60% of our expected oil and gas production protected for the remainder of 2019. These contracts consist of collars and swaps based off the WTI oil benchmark and the Henry Hub natural gas index. Additionally, we have entered into regional basis swaps in an effort to protect price realizations across our portfolio in the U.S. and Canada.

Continued growth in the Delaware Basin and Powder River Basin drove production increases for New Devon for the first quarter of 2019 compared to the fourth quarter of 2018. These production gains were offset by lower production volumes associated with the Eagle Ford and U.S. divest assets. Canada production was lower due to higher royalties in the first quarter of 2019.

In the fourth quarter of 2018, market forces widened Canadian heavy oil differentials beyond historical norms and negatively impacted the price we realized on our Canadian production. We had basis swaps for approximately half of our fourth quarter production to mitigate the effect of the lower market price. To further mitigate the effects of the lower price, we reduced our Jackfish production beginning in November 2018 which impacted our fourth quarter production by approximately 8 MBbls/d. Our Canadian heavy oil unhedged realized price for the fourth quarter of 2018 was near zero. During the first quarter of 2019, heavy oil differentials significantly improved primarily due to provincially mandated production cuts.

Cash settlements as presented in the tables above represent realized gains or losses related to the instruments described in Note 3 in “Part I. Financial Information – Item 1. Financial Statements” in this report.
In addition to cash settlements, we also recognize fair value changes on our oil, gas and NGL derivative instruments in each reporting period. The changes in fair value resulted from new positions and settlements that occurred during each period, as well as the relationship between contract prices and the associated forward curves.

LOE decreased primarily due to a Canadian product inventory impairment in the fourth quarter of 2018 and our U.S. non-core divestitures.
Gathering, processing and transportation decreased approximately $20 million due to the expiration of the EnLink Bridgeport minimum volume commitment at the end of 2018.
Production taxes as a percent of oil, gas and NGL sales decreased in the first quarter of 2019 compared to the fourth quarter of 2018 as improved Canadian heavy oil differentials resulted in a higher percentage of our oil, gas and NGL revenues being in Canada whereas the majority of our production taxes are assessed related to our U.S. upstream revenues.

We recognized gains in conjunction with certain of our U.S. asset dispositions in 2019 and 2018. For further discussion, see Note 2 in “Part I. Financial Information – Item 1. Financial Statements” in this report.
During the first quarter of 2019, we recognized restructuring and transaction costs primarily as a result of our workforce reductions. See Note 5 in “Part I. Financial Information – Item 1. Financial Statements” in this report for additional information.
The remaining change in other expense was driven primarily by changes in foreign currency exchange instruments as further discussed in Note 6, in “Part I. Financial Information – Item 1. Financial Statements” in this report.

Results of Operations – Q1 2019 vs. Q1 2018
The following graphs, discussion and analysis are intended to provide an understanding of our results of operations and current financial condition. Specifically, the graph below shows the change in net earnings from the three months ended March 31, 2018 to the three months ended March 31, 2019. The material changes are further discussed by category on the following pages. To facilitate the review, these numbers are being presented before consideration of earnings attributable to noncontrolling interests.
* Other includes asset dispositions, restructuring and transaction costs and other expenses.
Net earnings decreased $164 million during the first quarter of 2019 compared to the first quarter of 2018. The decrease primarily related to a $572 million decrease in upstream operations, driven by $668 million loss on valuation changes and cash settlements of commodity derivatives and a $60 million increase in depreciation, depletion and amortization. These changes were partially offset by lower financing costs primarily due to $312 million of early retirement of debt costs associated with our $800 million debt retirement in the first quarter of 2018.
The graph below presents the drivers of the upstream operations change presented above, with additional details and discussion of the drivers following the graph.

Strong performance in the Delaware Basin and Eagle Ford drove production growth for New Devon during the first quarter of 2019 compared to the first quarter of 2018. These production gains were offset by lower production volumes associated with divest assets.

LOE decreased primarily due to the impact of our U.S. non-core asset divestitures.
Gathering, processing and transportation decreased approximately $20 million 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 during the third quarter of 2018.

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. However, changes in assets and liabilities, net, negatively impacted our operating cash flow by $302 million in the first quarter of 2019 primarily due to realizing impacts associated with the Canadian widening differentials in the fourth quarter of 2018. Excluding this short-term timing impact, operating cash flow before changes in assets and liabilities, net fully funded our capital expenditures during the first three months of 2019. We utilize available cash balances and divestiture proceeds to supplement our operating cash flows.
Divestitures of Property and Equipment
During the first three months of 2019, we sold non-core U.S. assets for approximately $300 million, net of customary purchase price adjustments. For additional information, please see Note 2 in “Part I. Financial Information – Item 1. Financial Statements” in this report. During the first three months of 2018, we sold non-core U.S. assets for $47 million, net of customary purchase price adjustments.

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.
Debt Activity
During the first quarter of 2019, our debt decreased $162 million due to the repayment of our 6.30% senior notes at maturity.
34
During the first quarter of 2018, our debt decreased $807 million due to completed tender offers of certain long-term debt. In conjunction with the tender offers, we recognized a $312 million loss on the early retirement of debt, including $304 million of cash retirement costs and fees. For additional information, see Note 14 in “Part I. Financial Information – Item 1. Financial Statements” in this report.
Shareholder Distributions and Stock Activity
Devon paid $34 million ($0.08 per share) and $32 million ($0.06 per share) in common stock dividends during the first three months of 2019 and 2018, respectively. In February 2019, we announced an increase to our quarterly dividend to $0.09 per share beginning in the second quarter of 2019.
We repurchased 36.1 million shares of common stock for $1.0 billion in the first quarter of 2019 and 2.6 million shares of common stock for $82 million in the first quarter of 2018 under a share repurchase program authorized by our Board of Directors. For additional information, see Note 18 in “Part I. Financial Information – Item 1. Financial Statements” in this report.
Cash Flows from Discontinued Operations
All cash flows in the following table relate to activities of EnLink and the General Partner, in which all our aggregate ownership was divested in July 2018.

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. We expect to complete these asset separations in 2019. We plan to use the proceeds from these transactions for debt repayments. 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.
35
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 first quarter of 2019, we held approximately $1.3 billion of cash. Our operating cash flow forecasts are sensitive to many variables and include a measure of uncertainty as the actual results of these variables may differ from our expectations.
Commodity Prices – The most uncertain and volatile variables for our operating cash flow are the prices of the oil, bitumen, gas and NGLs we produce and sell. Prices are determined primarily by prevailing market conditions. Regional and worldwide economic activity, weather and other substantially variable factors influence market conditions for these products. These factors, which are difficult to predict, create volatility in prices and are beyond our control.
To mitigate some of the risk inherent in prices, we utilize various derivative financial instruments to protect a portion of our production against downside price risk. We target hedging approximately 50% of our production in a manner that systematically places hedges for several quarters in advance, allowing us to maintain a disciplined risk management program as it relates to commodity price volatility. We supplement the systematic hedging program with discretionary hedges that take advantage of favorable market conditions. The key terms to our oil, gas and NGL derivative financial instruments as of March 31, 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 expect to aggressively optimize our cost structure in conjunction with our planned Canadian and 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. As of March 31, 2019, we have completed workforce reduction and cost reduction initiatives expected to generate $110 million of annualized savings and are targeting $200 million of G&A savings by the end of 2019.
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
We announced the separation of our Canadian and Barnett Shale businesses, which we intend to complete by the end of 2019, as discussed further in Note 2 in “Part I. Financial Information – Item 1. Financial Statements” in this report.
Capital Expenditures
Our exploration and development budget for the remainder of 2019 is expected to range from $1.3 billion to $1.5 billion, excluding capital associated with our Canadian and Barnett Shale upstream assets.
Credit Availability
As of March 31, 2019, we had approximately $2.9 billion of available borrowings under our Senior Credit Facility. This credit facility supports our $3.0 billion of short-term credit under our commercial paper program. At March 31, 2019, there were no borrowings under our commercial paper program, and we were in compliance with the facility’s financial covenant.
Debt Ratings
We receive debt ratings from the major ratings agencies in the U.S. In determining our debt ratings, the agencies consider a number of qualitative and quantitative items including, but not limited to, commodity pricing levels, our liquidity, asset quality, reserve mix, debt levels, cost structure, planned asset sales and production growth opportunities. Our credit rating from Standard and
36
Poor’s Financial Services is BBB with a negative outlook. Our credit rating from Fitch is BBB+ with a negative outlook. Our credit rating from Moody’s Investor Service is Ba1 with a positive outlook. Any rating downgrades may result in additional letters of credit or cash collateral being posted under certain contractual arrangements.
Share Repurchase Program
In February 2019, our Board of Directors authorized an expansion of our pre-existing share repurchase program by an additional $1.0 billion to $5.0 billion. The share repurchase program expires December 31, 2019. Through March 31, 2019, we had executed $4.0 billion of the authorized program.
Critical Accounting Estimates
Income Taxes
We regularly assess factors relative to whether our foreign earnings are considered indefinitely reinvested. These factors include forecasted and actual results for both our U.S. and Canadian operations, borrowing conditions in the U.S. and existing U.S. income tax laws. Changes in any of these factors could require recognition of additional deferred, or even current, U.S. income tax expense. We accrue deferred U.S. income tax expense on our foreign earnings when the factors indicate that these earnings are no longer considered indefinitely reinvested.
During the first quarter of 2019, we announced our intent to separate all Canadian assets. As a result, our foreign earnings were no longer considered indefinitely reinvested as of March 31, 2019. However, the deferred tax asset of our Canadian investment will not be recorded until the form of the separation is certain.
Non-GAAP Measures
We make reference to “core earnings (loss) attributable to Devon” and “core earnings (loss) per share attributable to Devon” in “Overview of 2019 Results” in this Item 2 that are not required by or presented in accordance with GAAP. These non-GAAP measures are not alternatives to GAAP measures and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our results reported under GAAP. Core earnings (loss) attributable to Devon, as well as the per share amount, represent net earnings excluding certain noncash and other items that are typically excluded by securities analysts in their published estimates of our financial results. Additionally, we’ve presented our discontinued operations associated with the sale of our aggregate interests in EnLink and the General Partner separately. For more information on the results of operations for EnLink and the General Partner, see Note 19 in “Part I. Financial Information – Item 1. Financial Statements” in this report. Our non-GAAP measures are typically used as a quarterly performance measure. Amounts excluded relate to asset dispositions, noncash asset impairments (including noncash unproved asset impairments), deferred tax asset valuation allowance, costs associated with early retirement of debt, fair value changes in derivative financial instruments and foreign currency and restructuring and transaction costs associated with the workforce reductions during 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.
38
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 divested assets, Canada and the Barnett Shale to compute Adjusted EBITDAX and Adjusted Field-Level Cash Margin for New Devon. We use Adjusted EBITDAX and Adjusted Field-Level Cash Margin to assess the performance of our portfolio of upstream assets on a “same-store” basis across periods.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
Commodity Price Risk
As of March 31, 2019, we have commodity derivatives that pertain to a portion of our production for the last nine months of 2019 and for 2020. The key terms to our open oil, gas and NGL derivative financial instruments are presented in Note 3 in “Part I. Financial Information – Item 1. Financial Statements” in this report.
The fair values of our commodity derivatives are largely determined by the forward curves of the relevant price indices. At March 31, 2019, a 10% change in the forward curves associated with our commodity derivative instruments would have changed our net positions by approximately $230 million.
Interest Rate Risk
As of March 31, 2019, we had total debt of $5.8 billion. All of this debt was based on fixed interest rates averaging 5.4%.
Foreign Currency Risk
Our net assets, net earnings and cash flows from our Canadian subsidiaries are based on the U.S. dollar equivalent of such amounts measured in the Canadian dollar functional currency. Assets and liabilities of the Canadian subsidiaries are translated to U.S. dollars using the applicable exchange rate as of the end of a reporting period. Revenues, expenses and cash flows are translated using an average exchange rate during the reporting period. A 10% unfavorable change in the Canadian-to-U.S. dollar exchange rate would not have materially impacted our March 31, 2019 balance sheet.
Devon engages in intercompany loan activity between subsidiaries with different functional currencies. The value of these foreign currency denominated intercompany loans increases or decreases from the remeasurement into the subsidiaries’ functional currency. Based on the amount of the intercompany loans as of March 31, 2019, a 10% change in the foreign currency exchange rates would not have materially impacted our balance sheet.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Disclosure Controls and Procedures
We have established disclosure controls and procedures to ensure that material information relating to Devon, including its consolidated subsidiaries, is made known to the officers who certify Devon’s financial reports and to other members of senior management and the Board of Directors.
Based on their evaluation, our principal executive and principal financial officers have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) were effective as of March 31, 2019 to ensure that the information required to be disclosed by Devon in the reports that it files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC rules and forms.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
We implemented internal controls to ensure we adequately evaluated our contracts and properly assessed the impact of the new lease accounting standard on our financial statements to facilitate its adoption in the first quarter of 2019. There were no significant changes to our internal control over financial reporting due to the adoption of the new lease accounting standard. There were no other changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during our most recent fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II. Other Information
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
We are involved in various legal proceedings incidental to our business. However, to our knowledge as of the date of this report, there were no material pending legal proceedings to which we are a party or to which any of our property is subject.
On April 4, 2019, Devon Energy Production Company, L.P., a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (“DEPCO”), agreed to settle its previously disclosed negotiations with the EPA relating to certain alleged Clean Air Act violations at its Beaver Creek Gas Plant located near Riverton, Wyoming by executing an agreed order with the EPA. The order includes a penalty of $150,000 and is subject to the issuance of a final order from the regional EPA judicial officer. Moreover, in connection with the resolution of this matter with EPA, DEPCO expects to enter into consent decree with respect to the same matter with the Wyoming Department of Environmental Quality, which will also include a separate penalty of $150,000. Any such consent decree would be subject to court approval.
Please see our 2018 Annual Report on Form 10-K for additional information.
Item 1A. Risk Factors
There have been no material changes to the information included in Item 1A. “Risk Factors” in our 2018 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

In addition to shares purchased under the share repurchase program described below, these amounts also included 693,000 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 March 31, 2019, we had repurchased 114.3 million common shares for $4.0 billion, or $35.01 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 purchase shares of our common stock through an investment in the Devon Stock Fund, which is administered by an independent trustee. Eligible employees purchased approximately 13,500 shares of our common stock in the first quarter of 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. Shares sold under the Canadian Plan were acquired through open-market purchases. These shares and any interest in the Canadian Plan were offered and sold in reliance on the exemptions for offers and sales of securities made outside of the U.S., including under Regulation S for offers and sales of securities to employees pursuant to an employee benefit plan established and administered in accordance with the law of a country other than the U.S. In the first quarter of 2019, there were 8,300 shares purchased by Canadian employees.
