INFORMATION REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This report includes forward-looking statements regarding our expectations and plans, as well as future events or conditions. Such forward-looking statements are based on our examination of historical operating trends, the information used to prepare our December 31, 2012 reserve reports and other data in our possession or available from third parties. Such statements are subject to a number of assumptions, risks and uncertainties, many of which are beyond our control. Consequently, actual future results could differ materially from our expectations due to a number of factors, such as changes in the supply of and demand for oil, natural gas and NGLs and related products and services; exploration or drilling programs; political or regulatory events; general economic and financial market conditions; and other factors discussed in this report.

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

DEVON ENERGY CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

The accompanying unaudited financial statements and notes of Devon Energy Corporation (“Devon”) have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission. Pursuant to such rules and regulations, certain disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America have been omitted. The accompanying financial statements and notes should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes included in Devon’s 2012 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

The accompanying unaudited interim financial statements furnished in this report reflect all adjustments that are, in the opinion of management, necessary to a fair statement of Devon’s results of operations and cash flows for the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2013 and 2012 and Devon’s financial position as of June 30, 2013.

2. 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. These instruments are used to manage the inherent uncertainty of future revenues due to commodity price volatility and typically include financial price swaps, basis swaps, costless price collars and call options.

Devon periodically enters into interest rate swaps to manage its exposure to interest rate volatility. Devon periodically enters into foreign exchange forward contracts to manage its exposure to fluctuations in exchange rates.

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 contain provisions that provide for collateral payments, depending on levels of exposure and the credit rating of the counterparty.

As of June 30, 2013, Devon held $39 million of cash collateral. Such amount represented the estimated fair value of certain derivative positions in excess of Devon’s credit guidelines. The collateral is reported in other current liabilities in the accompanying balance sheet.

Commodity Derivatives

As of June 30, 2013, Devon had the following open oil derivative positions. Devon’s oil derivatives settle against the average of the prompt month NYMEX West Texas Intermediate futures price.

3. Restructuring Costs

Office Consolidation

In October 2012, Devon announced plans to consolidate its U.S. personnel into a single operations group centrally located at the company’s headquarters in Oklahoma City. As of June 30, 2013, Devon had substantially completed this initiative and incurred $126 million of restructuring costs associated with the office consolidation.

Divestiture of Offshore Assets

In the fourth quarter of 2009, Devon announced plans to divest its offshore assets. Devon completed this divestiture program in 2012, having incurred $196 million of cumulative restructuring costs associated with the divestitures.

Financial Statement Presentation

The schedule below summarizes restructuring costs presented in the accompanying comprehensive statements of earnings related to the office consolidation. There were no costs related to the offshore divestitures in the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2013 and 2012.

5. Income Taxes

In the second quarter of 2013, Devon repatriated to the United States $2.0 billion of cash from its foreign subsidiaries. In conjunction with the repatriation, Devon recognized approximately $100 million of current income tax expense. The current expense was entirely offset by the recognition of deferred income tax benefits, which included the reduction of the deferred tax liability previously recognized for unremitted foreign earnings deemed not to be indefinitely reinvested.

As of June 30, 2013, Devon’s unremitted foreign earnings totaled approximately $5.6 billion. Of this amount, approximately $4.4 billion was deemed to be indefinitely reinvested into the development and growth of Devon’s Canadian business. Therefore, Devon has not recognized a deferred tax liability for U.S. income taxes associated with such earnings. If such earnings were to be repatriated to the U.S., Devon may be subject to U.S. income taxes and foreign withholding taxes. However, it is not practical to estimate the amount of such additional taxes that may be payable due to the inter-relationship of the various factors involved in making such an estimate.

Devon has deemed the remaining $1.2 billion of unremitted foreign earnings not to be indefinitely reinvested. Consequently, Devon has recognized a deferred tax liability of approximately $550 million associated with such unremitted earnings as of June 30, 2013.

11. Property and Equipment

Asset Impairments

In the first six months of 2013, Devon recognized asset impairments related to its oil and gas property and equipment as presented below.

 

     Six Months Ended June 30, 2013  
     Gross      Net of Taxes  
     (In millions)  

U.S. oil and gas assets

   $ 1,110       $ 707   

Canada oil and gas assets

     843         632   
  

 

 

    

 

 

 

Total asset impairments

   $ 1,953       $ 1,339   
  

 

 

    

 

 

 

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 percent per annum, net of related tax effects. Estimated future net cash flows are calculated using end-of-period costs and an unweighted arithmetic average of commodity prices in effect on the first day of each of the previous 12 months.

The oil and gas impairments resulted primarily from declines in the U.S. and Canada full cost ceilings since December 31, 2012. The lower ceiling values resulted primarily from decreases in the 12-month average trailing prices for oil, bitumen and NGLs, which have reduced proved reserve values.

If estimated future cash flows decline due to price decreases or other factors, Devon could incur additional full cost ceiling impairments related to its oil and gas property and equipment.

12. Goodwill

During the first six months of 2013, Devon’s Canadian goodwill decreased $162 million entirely due to foreign currency translation.

13. Debt

Commercial Paper

During the second quarter of 2013, Devon repatriated $2.0 billion of foreign earnings to the United States and repaid $2.0 billion of commercial paper borrowings. As of June 30, 2013, Devon had $1.7 billion of outstanding commercial paper at an average rate of 0.36 percent.

Credit Lines

Devon has a $3.0 billion syndicated, unsecured revolving line of credit (the “Senior Credit Facility”). As of June 30, 2013 there were no borrowings under the Senior Credit 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 percent. As of June 30, 2013, Devon was in compliance with this covenant with a debt-to-capitalization ratio of 22.8 percent.

16. Stockholders’ Equity

Dividends

Devon paid common stock dividends of $170 million and $162 million in the first six months of 2013 and 2012, respectively. The quarterly cash dividend was $0.20 per share in the first and second quarter of 2012 and in the first quarter of 2013. Devon increased the dividend rate to $0.22 per share in the second quarter of 2013.

17. Commitments and Contingencies

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

Royalty Matters

Numerous natural gas producers and related parties, including Devon, have been named in various lawsuits alleging royalty underpayments. The suits allege that the producers and related parties used below-market prices, made improper deductions, used improper measurement techniques and entered into gas purchase and processing arrangements with affiliates that resulted in underpayment of royalties in connection with natural gas and NGLs produced and sold. Devon’s largest exposure for such matters relates to royalties in New Mexico. 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.

Chief Redemption Matters

In 2006, Devon acquired Chief Holdings LLC (“Chief”) from the owners of Chief, including Trevor Rees-Jones, the majority owner of Chief. In 2008, a former owner of Chief filed a petition against Rees-Jones, as the former majority owner of Chief, and Devon, as Chief’s successor pursuant to the 2006 acquisition. The petition claimed, among other things, violations of the Texas Securities Act, fraud and breaches of Rees-Jones’ fiduciary responsibility to the former owner in connection with Chief’s 2004 redemption of the owner’s minority ownership stake in Chief.

On June 20, 2011, a court issued a judgment against Rees-Jones for $196 million, of which $133 million of the judgment was also issued against Devon. Devon did not have a legal right of set off with respect to the judgment. Therefore, Devon had recorded a $133 million long-term liability relating to the judgment with an offsetting $133 million long-term receivable relating to its right to be indemnified by Rees-Jones and certain other parties pursuant to the indemnification agreement.

The plaintiffs and Rees-Jones have settled all claims related to the 2004 redemption. Under the terms of the settlement, Rees-Jones and Devon received full releases for all of the plaintiffs’ claims with Rees-Jones funding all settlement payments. Consequently, Devon reversed the previously recorded liability and asset in the first quarter of 2013.

Other Matters

Devon is involved in other various routine 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.

18. Fair Value Measurements

The following tables provide carrying value and fair value measurement information for certain of Devon’s financial assets and liabilities. The carrying values of cash, accounts receivable, other current receivables, accounts payable, other payables and accrued expenses included in the accompanying balance sheets approximated fair value at June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012. Therefore, such financial assets and liabilities are not presented in the following tables.

The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair values in the tables above.

Level 1 Fair Value Measurements

Cash equivalents and short-term investments — Amounts consist primarily of U.S. and Canadian treasury securities and money market investments. The fair value approximates the carrying value.

Level 2 Fair Value Measurements

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

Commodity, interest rate and foreign currency derivatives — The fair values of commodity, interest rate and foreign currency derivatives are estimated using internal discounted cash flow calculations based upon forward curves and data obtained from independent third parties for contracts with similar terms or data obtained from counterparties to the agreements.

Debt — Devon’s debt instruments do not actively trade in an established market. The fair values of its fixed-rate debt are estimated based on rates available for debt with similar terms and maturity. The fair value of Devon’s variable-rate commercial paper is the carrying value.

Level 3 Fair Value Measurements

Long-term investments — Devon’s long-term investments presented in the tables above consisted entirely of auction rate securities. Due to an inactive market for Devon’s auction rate securities, quoted market prices for these securities were not available. Therefore, Devon used valuation techniques that rely on unobservable inputs to estimate the fair values of its long-term auction rate securities. These inputs were based on continued receipts of principal at par, the collection of all accrued interest to date, the probability of full repayment of the securities considering the U.S. government guarantees substantially all of the underlying student loans, and the AAA credit rating of the securities. As a result of using these inputs, Devon concluded the estimated fair values of its long-term auction rate securities approximated the par values as of June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012.

Included below is a summary of the changes in Devon’s Level 3 fair value measurements during the first six months of 2013 and 2012.

19. 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 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 segments are all primarily engaged in oil and gas producing activities. Revenues are all from external customers.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

The following discussion and analysis addresses material changes in our results of operations and capital resources and uses for the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2013, compared to the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2012, and in our financial condition and liquidity since December 31, 2012. For information regarding our critical accounting policies and estimates, see our 2012 Annual Report on Form 10-K under “Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.”

(1) Adjusted earnings, adjusted earnings per share and adjusted operating cash flow are financial measures not prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. (GAAP). For a description of adjusted earnings, adjusted earnings per share and adjusted operating cash flow as well as reconciliations to the comparable GAAP measures, see “Non-GAAP Measures” in this Item 2.
(2) Computed as revenues from commodity sales, commodity derivatives settlements, and marketing and midstream operations, less expenses for lease operations, marketing and midstream operations, general and administration, taxes other than income taxes and interest, with the result divided by total production.

During the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2013, our adjusted earnings, adjusted earnings per share and operating margin per Boe all increased compared to the 2012 periods. The improved 2013 results were driven primarily by increases in gas prices and oil volumes. These factors also contributed to higher adjusted operating cash flow, which when combined with a reduction in capitalized costs, caused our cash flow deficit to narrow considerably in 2013.

During the first six months of 2013, we recognized noncash asset impairments totaling $2.0 billion ($1.3 billion after tax).

Upstream sales increased $177 million due to a 16 percent increase in our liquids production, partially offset by a 5 percent decline in our gas production in the second quarter of 2013. As a result of continued development of our oil properties, primarily in the Permian Basin, oil sales increased $131 million. Bitumen sales increased $9 million due to development of our Jackfish thermal heavy oil projects in Canada. Additionally, our NGL sales increased $57 million primarily as a result of continued drilling in the liquids-rich gas portions of the Cana-Woodford and Barnett Shales and the Permian Basin. These increases were partially offset by decreases in our gas production, which resulted in a $20 million decline in sales.

Production information for our key properties is summarized below:

 

   

Permian Basin production increased 30 percent compared to the second quarter of 2012 and 13 percent compared to the first quarter of 2013. Oil production accounted for 60 percent of our 76,000 Boe per day produced in the Permian Basin during the second quarter of 2013. The year-over-year increase in total production was driven by a 32 percent increase in oil production.

 

   

Barnett Shale production increased 4 percent compared to the second quarter of 2012 and decreased 1 percent compared to the first quarter of 2013. Although total production decreased in the second quarter of 2013 compared to the first quarter of 2013, liquids production increased 2 percent. Liquids production accounted for 24 percent of our 1.4 Bcfe per day produced in the Barnett Shale during the second quarter of 2013. The year-over-year increase in total production was driven by a 34 percent increase in liquids production.

 

   

Cana-Woodford Shale production increased 15 percent compared to the second quarter of 2012 and decreased 5 percent compared to the first quarter of 2013. Liquids production accounted for 39 percent of our 322 MMcfe per day produced in Cana during the second quarter of 2013. The year-over-year increase in total production was driven by a 48 percent increase in liquids production.

 

   

Jackfish production increased 4 percent compared to the second quarter of 2012 and decreased 2 percent compared to the first quarter of 2013. Bitumen production accounted for all of our 53,000 Boe per day produced at Jackfish during the second quarter of 2013. In June 2013, our Jackfish 1 project reached payout status. Consequently, our Jackfish 1 production will be burdened with a higher Canadian provincial government royalty rate beginning with June 2013. The higher royalty rate decreases our production net of royalties.

 

   

Granite Wash production increased 16 percent compared to the second quarter of 2012 and 33 percent compared to the first quarter of 2013. Liquids production accounted for 52 percent of our 22,000 Boe per day produced in the Granite Wash during the second quarter of 2013.

 

   

Mississippian-Woodford Trend production increased 73 percent compared to the first quarter of 2013 to 5,000 Boe per day. Oil production accounted for 61 percent of our total production in the Mississippian-Woodford Trend during the second quarter of 2013.

 

   

Rocky Mountain production decreased 6 percent compared to the second quarter of 2012. Although total production was down, oil production increased 27 percent compared to the second quarter of 2012. Liquids production accounted for nearly 32 percent of our 333 MMcfe per day produced in the Rocky Mountains during the second quarter of 2013.

 

   

Gulf Coast/East Texas production decreased 11 percent compared to the second quarter of 2012. Liquids production accounted for nearly 25 percent of our 329 MMcfe per day produced in Gulf Coast/East Texas during the second quarter of 2013.

 

   

Lloydminster production decreased 12 percent compared to the second quarter of 2012. Oil production accounted for 94 percent of our 30,000 Boe per day produced at Lloydminster during the second quarter of 2013.

Upstream sales increased $428 million in the second quarter of 2013 primarily due to a 34 percent increase in our realized price without hedges. Our gas sales were the most significantly impacted with a $383 million increase due to prices. The change in our gas price was largely due to fluctuations of the North American regional index prices upon which our gas sales are based. Oil and bitumen sales increased $102 million as a result of 11 percent increase in our realized price without hedges. NGL sales decreased $57 million as a result of a 16 percent decrease in our realized price without hedges. The largest contributor to the lower NGL price was a decrease in the average NGL prices at the Mont Belvieu, Texas hub.

The volume and price changes in the tables above caused the following changes to our oil, gas and NGL sales between the six months ended June, 30, 2013 and 2012.

Upstream sales increased $277 million due to a 13 percent increase in our liquids production, partially offset by a 6 percent decline in our gas production in the first six months of 2013. As a result of continued development of our oil properties, primarily in the Permian Basin, oil sales increased $223 million. Bitumen sales increased $43 million due to development of our Jackfish thermal heavy oil projects in Canada. Additionally, our NGL sales increased $78 million primarily as a result of continued drilling in the liquids-rich gas portions of the Cana-Woodford and Barnett Shales and the Permian Basin. These increases were partially offset by decreases in our gas production, which resulted in a $67 million decline in sales.

Upstream sales increased $217 million during the first six months of 2013 due to a 14 percent increase in our realized price without hedges. Our gas sales increased $492 million due to prices. The change in our gas price was largely due to fluctuations of the North American regional index prices upon which our gas sales are based. Our liquids sales decreased $275 million due to lower realized prices without hedges. The largest contributors to the lower liquids prices were a decrease in the average NYMEX West Texas Intermediate index price, wider bitumen differentials and lower NGL prices at the Mont Belvieu, Texas hub.

Cash settlements presented in the tables above represent realized gains or losses related to various commodity derivatives. In addition to cash settlements, we also recognize unrealized changes in the fair values of our commodity derivatives in each reporting period. The changes in fair value result from new positions and settlements that occur during each period, as well as the relationships between contract prices and the associated forward curves. Including the cash settlements discussed above, our commodity derivatives generated a net gain of $366 million and $665 million in the second quarter of 2013 and 2012, respectively. Including the cash settlements discussed above, our commodity derivatives generated a net gain of $46 million and $810 million in the first six months of 2013 and 2012, respectively.

LOE increased $0.50 per Boe and $0.42 per Boe during the second quarter and first six months of 2013, respectively. The largest contributor to the higher unit cost is related to our liquids production growth, particularly in the Permian Basin in the U.S. Such projects generally require a higher cost to produce per unit than our gas projects. We experienced upward pressures on costs in certain operating areas, which also contributed to the higher LOE per Boe.

DD&A from our oil and gas properties decreased in both 2013 periods largely as a result of the asset impairment charges recognized in 2012 and 2013. DD&A from our other properties increased in both 2013 periods largely from the construction of our new headquarters in Oklahoma City and natural gas pipeline development in the Cana-Woodford Shale.

Interest expense increased in both 2013 periods primarily due to higher average debt borrowings and lower capitalized interest, partially offset by lower weighted average interest rates. Borrowings were primarily used to fund capital expenditures in excess of our operating cash flow.

In the six months ended June 30, 2013, we incurred $46 million of restructuring costs associated with the consolidation of our U.S. personnel into one location in Oklahoma City. This amount includes $25 million related to office space that is subject to non-cancellable operating lease agreements that we ceased using as a part of the office consolidation. We also recognized $6 million of asset impairment charges for leasehold improvements and furniture associated with the office consolidation.

Under the full-cost method of accounting, capitalized costs of oil and gas properties are subject to a quarterly full cost ceiling test, which is discussed in Note 11 to the financial statements under “Item 1. Consolidated Financial Statements” of this report.

The oil and gas impairments resulted primarily from declines in the U.S. and Canada full cost ceilings since December 31, 2012. The lower ceiling values resulted primarily from decreases in the 12-month average trailing prices for oil, bitumen and NGLs, which have reduced proved reserve values.

If pricing conditions decline from June 30, 2013, we could incur additional full cost ceiling impairments related to our oil and gas property and equipment.

In the second quarter of 2013, we repatriated to the United States $2.0 billion of cash from our foreign subsidiaries. In conjunction with the repatriation, we recognized approximately $100 million of current income tax expense. The current expense was entirely offset by the recognition of deferred income tax benefits, which included the reduction of the deferred tax liability previously recognized for unremitted foreign earnings deemed not to be indefinitely reinvested.

Operating Cash Flow – Continuing Operations

Net cash provided by operating activities (“operating cash flow”) was our primary source of capital in the first six months of 2013. Our operating cash flow was comparable to the first six months of 2012.

During the first six months of 2013 and 2012, our operating cash flow funded approximately 70 percent and 60 percent, respectively, of our cash payments for capital expenditures. Leveraging our liquidity, we used cash balances and short-term debt to fund the remainder of our cash-based capital expenditures.

Capital Expenditures

The amounts in the table below reflect cash payments for capital expenditures, including cash paid for capital expenditures incurred in prior periods.

Our capital expenditures consist of amounts related to our oil and gas exploration and development operations, our midstream operations and other corporate activities. The vast majority of our capital expenditures are for the acquisition, drilling and development of oil and gas properties, which totaled $3.1 billion and $3.9 billion in the first six months of 2013 and 2012, respectively. The 21% decline in exploration and development capital spending in the first six months of 2013 was primarily due to a decline in new venture acreage acquisitions and utilization of the drilling carries in 2013 from our Sinopec and Sumitomo joint venture arrangements.

Capital expenditures for our midstream operations are primarily for the construction and expansion of natural gas processing plants, natural gas gathering systems and oil pipelines. Our midstream capital expenditures are largely impacted by oil and gas drilling activities. The higher 2013 midstream expenditures primarily relate to our plants in the Barnett and Cana-Woodford Shales and the Access Pipeline in Canada.

Debt Activity, Net

During the first six months of 2013, we repatriated $2.0 billion of foreign earnings to the U.S. and repaid outstanding commercial paper borrowings. The repayment resulted in a net repayment of $1.5 billion for the first six months of 2013. During the first six months of 2012, we received $2.5 billion from the issuance of long-term debt, the proceeds of which were primarily used to repay outstanding commercial paper and credit facility borrowings. We also utilized short-term borrowings of $967 million to fund capital expenditures in excess of our operating cash flow.

Shareholder distributions

The following table summarizes our common stock dividends (amounts in millions) during the first six months of 2013 and 2012. In the second quarter of 2013, we increased our quarterly dividend to $0.22 per share.
