INFORMATION REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This report includes “forward-looking statements” as defined by the SEC. Such statements include those concerning strategic plans, our expectations and objectives for future operations, as well as other future events or conditions, and are often identified by use of the words “expects,” “believes,” “will,” “would,” “could,” “forecasts,” “projections,” “estimates,” “plans,” “expectations,” “targets,” “opportunities,” “potential,” “anticipates,” “outlook” and other similar terminology. Such forward-looking statements are based on our examination of historical operating trends, the information used to prepare our December 31, 2016 reserve reports and other data in our possession or available from third parties. Such statements are subject to a number of assumptions, risks and uncertainties, many of which are beyond our control. Consequently, actual future results could differ materially from our expectations due to a number of factors, including, but not limited to:

•

the volatility of oil, gas and NGL prices;

•

uncertainties inherent in estimating oil, gas and NGL reserves;

•

the extent to which we are successful in acquiring and discovering additional reserves;

•

the uncertainties, costs and risks involved in exploration and development activities;

•

risks related to our hedging activities;

•

counterparty credit risks;

•

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

•

risks relating to our indebtedness;

•

our ability to successfully complete mergers, acquisitions and divestitures;

•

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

•

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

•

midstream capacity constraints and potential interruptions in production;

•

competition for leases, materials, people and capital;

•

cyberattacks targeting our systems and infrastructure; and

•

any of the other risks and uncertainties discussed in this report, our 2016 Annual Report on Form 10-K and our other filings with the SEC.

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