DEVON ENERGY CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
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 accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. have been omitted. The accompanying unaudited interim financial statements and notes should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes included in Devons 2015 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
The accompanying unaudited interim financial statements furnished in this report reflect all adjustments that are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair statement of Devons results of operations and cash flows for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, as applicable, and Devons financial position as of March 31, 2016.
Recently Issued Accounting Standards
The FASB issued ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606). This ASU will supersede the revenue recognition requirements in Topic 605, Revenue Recognition and industry-specific guidance in Subtopic 932-605, Extractive Activities Oil and Gas Revenue Recognition. This ASU provides guidance concerning the recognition and measurement of revenue from contracts with customers. Its objective is to increase the usefulness of information in the financial statements regarding the nature, timing and uncertainty of revenues. The effective date for ASU 2014-09 was delayed through the issuance of ASU 2015-14, Revenue from Contracts with Customers Deferral of the Effective Date, to annual and interim periods beginning in 2018, with early adoption permitted in 2017. The ASU is required to be adopted using either the retrospective transition method, which requires restating previously reported results or the cumulative effect (modified retrospective) transition method, which utilizes a cumulative-effort adjustment to retained earnings in the period of adoption to account for prior period effects rather than restating previously reported results. Devon intends to use the cumulative effect transition method and is evaluating the impact this ASU will have on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. Devon does not plan on early adopting.
The FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842). This ASU will supersede the lease requirements in Topic 840, Leases. Its objective is to increase transparency and comparability among organizations. This ASU provides guidance requiring lessees to recognize most leases on their balance sheet. Lessor accounting does not significantly change from Topic 840, except for some changes made to align with Topic 606. This ASU is effective for Devon beginning January 1, 2019 and will be applied using a modified retrospective transition method, which requires applying the new guidance to leases that exist or are entered into after the beginning of the earliest period in the financial statements. Early adoption is permitted. Devon is evaluating the impact this ASU will have on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures and does not plan on early adopting.
The FASB issued ASU 2016-09, Compensation Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting. Its objective is to simplify several aspects of the accounting for share-based payments, including accounting for income taxes when awards vest or are settled, statutory withholding and accounting for forfeitures. Classification of these aspects on the statement of cash flows is also addressed. This ASU is effective for Devon beginning January 1, 2017. Devon is evaluating the impact this ASU will have on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures and does not plan on early adopting.
2. | Acquisitions and Divestitures |
Devon Acquisitions
On January 7, 2016, Devon acquired approximately 80,000 net acres and assets in the STACK play for approximately $1.5 billion, subject to certain adjustments. Devon funded the acquisition with approximately $830 million of cash and $659 million of common equity shares. A preliminary allocation of the purchase price at March 31, 2016 was approximately $1.3 billion to unproved properties and approximately $200 million to proved properties.

EnLink Acquisitions
On January 7, 2016, EnLink acquired Anadarko Basin gathering and processing midstream assets, along with dedicated acreage service rights and service contracts, for approximately $1.5 billion, subject to certain adjustments. EnLink funded the acquisition with approximately $215 million of General Partner common units and approximately $800 million of cash, primarily funded with the issuance of EnLink preferred units. The remaining $500 million of the purchase price is 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 $250 million of undiscounted future installment payment is reported in other current liabilities in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets with the remaining $250 million payment reported in other long-term liabilities. The accretion of the discount is reported within net financing costs in the accompanying consolidated comprehensive statement of earnings. A preliminary allocation of the purchase price at March 31, 2016 was $1.0 billion to intangible assets and $420 million to property and equipment.
Devon Asset Divestitures
In February 2016, Devon announced a program to divest certain non-core assets. On April 15, 2016, Devon reached an agreement to sell its Mississippian assets for $200 million, subject to certain adjustments. The transaction is expected to close in the second quarter of 2016.
3. | Derivative Financial Instruments |
Objectives and Strategies
Devon periodically enters into derivative financial instruments with respect to a portion of its oil, gas and NGL production to hedge future prices received. Additionally, Devon and EnLink periodically enter into derivative financial instruments with respect to a portion of their oil, gas and NGL marketing activities. These commodity derivative financial instruments include financial price swaps, basis swaps, costless price collars and call options. 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.
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.
As of December 31, 2015, Devons other current assets in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet included $236 million of accrued settlements that it received in January 2016.
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 Devons policy to enter into derivative contracts only with investment-grade rated counterparties deemed by management to be competent and competitive market makers. Additionally, Devons derivative contracts generally contain provisions that provide for collateral payments, if Devon or its counterpartys credit rating falls below certain credit rating levels.
As of March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, Devon held $5 million and $75 million, respectively, of cash collateral which represented the estimated fair value of certain derivative positions in excess of Devons credit guidelines. The collateral is reported in other current liabilities in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.

Oil and Gas Impairments
Under the full cost method of accounting, capitalized costs of oil and gas properties, net of accumulated DD&A and deferred income taxes, may not exceed the full cost ceiling at the end of each quarter. The ceiling is calculated separately for each country and is based on the present value of estimated future net cash flows from proved oil and gas reserves, discounted at 10% per annum, net of related tax effects. Estimated future net cash flows are calculated using end-of-period costs and an unweighted arithmetic average of commodity prices in effect on the first day of each of the previous 12 months.
The oil and gas impairments resulted from declines in the U.S. and Canada full cost ceilings. The lower ceiling values resulted primarily from significant decreases in the 12-month average trailing prices for oil, bitumen, gas and NGLs, which significantly reduced proved reserves values and, to a lesser degree, proved reserves.
EnLink Goodwill Impairments
In the first quarter of 2016, Devon recognized goodwill impairments related to EnLinks business. Additional information regarding the impairments is discussed in Note 13.
6. | Restructuring and Transaction Costs |
Reduction in Workforce
In the first quarter of 2016, Devon recognized $234 million of employee-related costs associated with a reduction in workforce that was made in response to the depressed commodity price environment. Of these employee-related costs, approximately $67 million resulted from accelerated vesting of share-based grants, which are noncash charges. Additionally, approximately $30 million resulted from estimated defined benefit settlements. These cash and noncash charges included estimates for employees released from service in the first quarter of 2016, as well as amounts based on the number of employees expected to be impacted by our non-core asset divestitures. Devon expects to complete these divestitures in 2016.
Transaction Costs
In the first quarter of 2016, Devon and EnLink recognized $13 million of transaction costs primarily associated with the closing of the acquisitions discussed in Note 2.

Devon estimates its annual effective income tax rate in recording its quarterly provision for income taxes in the various jurisdictions in which it operates. Statutory tax rate changes and other significant or unusual items are recognized as discrete items in the quarter in which they occur.
At December 31, 2015, Devon recorded a 100% valuation, or $967 million, allowance against the U.S. deferred tax assets that largely resulted from the full cost impairments recognized during 2015. In the first quarter of 2016, Devon provided an additional $808 million deferred tax valuation allowance to reflect its continued financial losses incurred largely by the additional full cost impairment.

In the first quarter of 2016, EnLink recorded a goodwill impairment of approximately $873 million. This impairment is not deductible for purposes of calculating income tax and therefore has an impact on the effective tax rate.
Devon and its subsidiaries are subject to U.S. federal income tax as well as income or capital taxes in various state and foreign jurisdictions. Devons tax reserves are related to tax years that may be subject to examination by the relevant taxing authority. Devon is under audit in the U.S. and various foreign jurisdictions as part of its normal course of business.

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 EnLinks unit price, caused a change in circumstances warranting an interim impairment test of EnLinks reporting units. In the first quarter of 2016, EnLink recorded a noncash goodwill impairment of $873 million. This consisted of a full impairment charge of $93 million related to its Crude and Condensate reporting unit and partial impairment to its Texas and General Partner reporting units of $473 million and $307 million, respectively.
Other Intangible Assets
The following table presents other intangible assets reported in other long-term assets in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. See Note 2 for discussion of changes in other intangible assets resulting from EnLink acquisitions during the first three months of 2016.

As of January 1, 2016, Devon adopted ASU 2015-03, Interest Imputation of Interest (Topic 835): Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs. This ASU requires debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability to be presented on the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of that debt liability rather than as an asset. As a result of the adoption, Devon reclassified unamortized debt issuance costs of $81 million as of December 31, 2015 from other long-term assets to a reduction of long-term debt on the consolidated balance sheets.

Commercial Paper
During the three months ended March 31, 2016, Devon reduced commercial paper borrowings by $626 million. As of March 31, 2016, Devon had no outstanding commercial paper borrowings.
Credit Lines
Devon has a $3.0 billion Senior Credit Facility. As of March 31, 2016, there were $43 million in outstanding letters of credit and no borrowings under the Senior Credit Facility. The Senior Credit Facility contains only one material financial covenant. This covenant requires Devons 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 March 31, 2016, Devon was in compliance with this covenant with a debt-to-capitalization ratio of 22.6%.
EnLink Debt
All of EnLinks and the General Partners debt is non-recourse to Devon.
EnLink has a $1.5 billion unsecured revolving credit facility. As of March 31, 2016, there were $11 million in outstanding letters of credit and $543 million in outstanding borrowings at an average rate of 2.23% under the $1.5 billion credit facility. The General Partner has a $250 million secured revolving credit facility. As of March 31, 2016, the General Partner had $9 million in outstanding borrowings at an average rate of 4.25%. EnLink and the General Partner were in compliance with all financial covenants in their respective credit facilities as of March 31, 2016.

17. | Stockholders Equity |
Common Stock Issued
In January 2016, Devon issued approximately 23 million shares of common stock in conjunction with the STACK asset acquisition discussed in Note 2.
In February 2016, Devon issued 79 million shares of common stock to the public, inclusive of 10 million shares sold as part of the underwriters option. Net proceeds from the offering were $1.5 billion.
Dividends
Devon paid common stock dividends of $125 million and $99 million in the first three months of 2016 and 2015, respectively. In the first quarter of 2016, Devon announced a decrease in the quarterly cash dividend rate from $0.24 per share to $0.06 per share beginning in the second quarter of 2016.
18. | Noncontrolling Interests |
Subsidiary Equity Transactions
As a result of EnLinks transactions discussed in Note 2, Devons ownership interest in EnLink decreased from 28% at December 31, 2015 to 25% at March 31, 2016, excluding the interest held by the General Partner. Additionally, Devons ownership in the General Partner decreased from 70% to 64% during the same time period as a result of the transaction discussed in Note 2. 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.
In March 2015, Devon conducted an underwritten secondary public offering of 23 million common units representing limited partner interests in EnLink, raising net proceeds of $569 million.

Distributions to Noncontrolling Interests
EnLink and the General Partner distributed $73 million and $53 million to non-Devon unitholders during the first three months of 2016 and 2015, respectively.
19. | Commitments and Contingencies |
Devon is party to various legal actions arising in the normal course of business. Matters that are probable of unfavorable outcome to Devon and which can be reasonably estimated are accrued. Such accruals are based on information known about the matters, Devons 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 Devons financial position or results of operations after consideration of recorded accruals. Actual amounts could differ materially from managements estimates.
Royalty Matters
Numerous oil and natural gas producers and related parties, including Devon, have been named in various lawsuits alleging royalty underpayments. The suits allege that the producers and related parties used below-market prices, made improper deductions, used improper measurement techniques and entered into gas purchase and processing arrangements with affiliates that resulted in underpayment of royalties in connection with oil, natural gas and NGLs produced and sold. Devon is also involved in governmental agency proceedings and is subject to related contracts and regulatory controls in the ordinary course of business, some that may lead to additional royalty claims. Devon does not currently believe that it is subject to material exposure with respect to such royalty matters.
Environmental Matters
Devon is subject to certain 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. Devons monetary exposure for environmental matters is not expected to be material.
Other Matters
Devon is involved in other various routine legal proceedings incidental to its business. However, to Devons knowledge, there were no other material pending legal proceedings to which Devon is a party or to which any of its property is subject.
20. | Fair Value Measurements |
The following table provides carrying value and fair value measurement information for certain of Devons financial assets and liabilities. The carrying values of cash, accounts receivable, other current receivables, accounts payable, other current payables and accrued expenses included in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets approximated fair value at March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015. Therefore, such financial assets and liabilities are not presented in the following table. Additionally, information regarding the fair values of oil and gas assets, goodwill and other intangible assets is provided in Note 5 and Note 13.

Cash equivalents Amounts consist primarily of money market investments. The fair value approximates the carrying value.
Level 2 Fair Value Measurements
Cash equivalents Amounts consist primarily of commercial paper and Canadian agency and provincial securities investments. The fair value approximates the carrying value.
Commodity, 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 - Devons debt instruments do not actively trade in an established market. The fair values of its debt are estimated based on rates available for debt with similar terms and maturity. The fair values of commercial paper and credit facility balances are the carrying values.
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, Devons Canadian exploration and production operating segment is reported as a separate reporting segment primarily due to the significant differences between the U.S. and Canadian regulatory environments. Devons U.S. and Canadian segments are both primarily engaged in oil and gas exploration and production 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. EnLinks operations consist of midstream assets and operations located across the U.S. Additionally, EnLink has a management team that is primarily responsible for capital and resource allocation decisions. Therefore, EnLink is presented as a separate reporting segment.

During the first three months of 2016, the sustained low commodity price environment remained a challenge for us and the upstream energy sector. In spite of this, we are committed to executing on our strategy and positioning our company for long-term success. To that end, we have taken financial and operational steps during the first quarter of 2016 to make prudent investments and upgrades to our portfolio of assets, improve our capital efficiency, further optimize our production operations to minimize production declines and control costs and protect our balance sheet. Specifically, we had several key achievements:
| Expanded our position in the STACK by acquiring approximately 80,000 net acres and assets for $1.5 billion. |
| Reduced exploratory and development capital investment by over 50% as compared to the fourth quarter of 2015. |
| Raised our 2016 full year production target 3%. |
| Reduced LOE by $35 million or 7% as compared to the fourth quarter of 2015, and lowered our 2016 operating cost outlook by $50 million through on-going cost reduction initiatives. |
| Reduced gross G&A by 5% as compared to the fourth quarter of 2015, primarily through cost reduction initiatives resulting from our February 2016 workforce reduction, the full benefits of which have yet to be realized. The reductions are expected to decrease gross G&A costs by approximately $400 million to $500 million on an annualized basis. |
| Raised net proceeds of $1.5 billion in an offering of our common stock. |
| Exited the first quarter of 2016 with $4.6 billion of liquidity, consisting of $1.6 billion of cash and $3.0 billion of capacity on our Senior Credit Facility. We have managed our debt maturity schedule to provide maximum flexibility with near-term liquidity; we have no major long-term debt maturities until December 2018. |
26
| Advanced our program to divest $2 billion to $3 billion of non-core assets across our portfolio, including entering into an agreement subsequent to quarter-end to sell our Mississippian assets for $200 million. |
In conjunction with the workforce reduction and transactions discussed above, we incurred $247 million of restructuring and transaction costs in the first three months of 2016. Additionally, we recognized $3.0 billion of asset impairments related to the continued depressed prices for commodities. While these impairments significantly impacted our earnings, they had no effect on our operating cash flow or debt covenants.
As we look ahead to the remainder of 2016, we expect commodity pricing to continue to be challenged. However, we have both oil and natural gas derivatives in place to provide some protection against downside price risk. As of April 29, 2016, we had derivative contracts for the last nine months of 2016 that protected 73,000 Bbls/d of our oil production at $38.85 and 224,000 MMBtu/d of our natural gas production at $2.70. We are also balancing capital requirements with cash flow and enhancing our financial strength by utilizing asset sale proceeds to reduce debt. This financial strategy positions us to take advantage of our resource plays when prices incentivize higher activity levels.

Oil, gas and NGL sales slightly increased due to a change in production volumes during the first quarter of 2016. While continued development of our Delaware Basin and Rockies assets and our enhanced positions in the STACK drove production increases, these increases were more than offset by reduced completion activity in the Eagle Ford and in our non-core properties. Additionally, our bitumen production increased primarily due to Jackfish 3 reaching nameplate capacity in the third quarter of 2015.
Oil, gas and NGL sales decreased in the first quarter of 2016 due to significant price decreases for all commodities. The decrease in oil and bitumen sales resulted from lower average WTI crude oil index prices, which were 31% lower than the first quarter of 2015. The decreases in gas and NGL sales were due to lower North American regional index prices upon which our gas sales are based and lower NGL prices at the Mont Belvieu, Texas hub.

Cash settlements as presented in the tables above represent realized gains or losses related to various commodity derivatives. 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 relationships between contract prices and the associated forward curves. Including the cash settlements discussed above, our oil, gas and NGL derivatives generated net gains in the first three months of 2016 and 2015.

The overall increase in marketing and midstream margin was primarily due to EnLink acquisition activity in 2015 and the first quarter of 2016. This increase was partially offset by a decline in throughput volumes related to gas processing and transmission activities and lower margins on Devons downstream marketing commitments.

Our absolute production and property taxes decreased during the first quarter of 2016 primarily due to a decrease in our U.S. revenues, on which the majority of our production taxes are assessed. Production and property taxes as a percentage of oil, gas and NGL sales increased during the first quarter of 2016 primarily due to ad valorem and other taxes that do not change in direct correlation with the decline in oil, gas and NGL sales.

DD&A from our oil and gas properties decreased in the first quarter of 2016 compared to the first quarter of 2015 largely due to lower DD&A rates, as a result of the oil and gas asset impairments recognized in 2015.
Asset Impairments
During the first three months of 2016 and 2015, we recognized asset impairments of $3.0 billion and $5.5 billion, respectively. For further discussion, see Note 5 in Part I. Financial Information Item 1. Financial Statements of this report.
Restructuring and Transaction Costs
During the first three months of 2016, we recognized restructuring costs of $234 million as a result of the workforce reduction announced in February 2016, which was driven by our cost reduction initiatives and anticipated divestitures of non-core properties. These restructuring costs represent estimated employee-related cash and non-cash severance costs afforded under the terms of our severance policy. When estimating these costs, certain assumptions were made with respect to the timing of employee terminations and the number of employees that may receive employment offers from the purchasers of our divested assets. We estimate that a 10% change in the number of employees receiving employment offers would impact our estimate by approximately $4 million. See Note 6 in Part I. Financial Information Item 1. Financial Statements of this report.
During the first three months of 2016, we recognized $13 million of transaction costs primarily associated with the closing of the acquisitions discussed in Note 2 in Part I. Financial Information Item 1. Financial Statements of this report.

Operating Cash Flow
Net cash provided by operating activities decreased 91% primarily due to lower commodity prices and the impact of cash settlements associated with our commodity derivatives during 2015.
Excluding payments made for acquisitions, our consolidated operating cash flow funded 20% and 96% of our capital expenditures during the first three months of 2016 and 2015, respectively. In 2016, leveraging our liquidity, we also used cash balances and proceeds from our common stock offering to fund our acquisitions and capital expenditures.
Issuance of Common Stock
In February 2016, we issued 79 million shares of our common stock to the public, inclusive of 10 million shares sold as part of the underwriters option. Net proceeds from the offering were approximately $1.5 billion.

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 Devons capital expenditures are for the acquisition, drilling and development of oil and gas properties. In response to lower commodity prices, Devons 2016 capital program is designed to be substantially lower than 2015, evidenced by a 60% decrease in exploration and development costs from the first quarter of 2015 as well as a 35% decrease from the fourth quarter of 2015 to the first quarter of 2016.
Capital expenditures for Devons and Enlinks 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 drilling and development activities.
Acquisition capital for the first quarter of 2016 primarily consisted of Devons acquisition of assets in the STACK play for approximately $1.5 billion and EnLinks acquisition of Anadarko Basin gathering and processing midstream assets for $1.5 billion. Approximately $830 million and $800 million, respectively, was paid in cash at the closings with the remainder of the purchase prices funded with equity 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 three months of 2016, we reduced our debt by $489 million. The decrease was primarily due to reducing our commercial paper balances by $626 million partially offset by EnLinks increased credit facility borrowings to fund acquisitions and growth capital expenditures.
During the first three months of 2015, our net debt borrowings increased $485 million. The increase was primarily due to EnLink borrowings made to fund acquisitions.
Shareholder and Noncontrolling Interests Distributions
The following table summarizes our common stock dividends during the first three months of 2016 and 2015. In February 2016, we announced that our quarterly dividend will be decreased to $0.06 per share starting in the second quarter of 2016.

EnLink and the General Partner distributed $73 million and $53 million to non-Devon unitholders during the first three months of 2016 and 2015, respectively.
EnLink and General Partner Distributions
Devon received $66 million and $72 million in distributions from EnLink and the General Partner during the first three months of 2016 and 2015, respectively.
Issuance of Subsidiary Units
In February 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 proceeds of approximately $725 million. Also in conjunction with this acquisition, the General Partner issued 15.6 million of common units with an aggregate value of $215 million.
Sale of Subsidiary Units
In March 2015, we conducted an underwritten secondary public offering of 23 million common units representing limited partner interests in EnLink, raising proceeds of $569 million, net of underwriting discount.
Liquidity
Historically, our primary sources of capital and liquidity have been our operating cash flow and cash on hand. Additionally, we maintain a commercial paper program, supported by our revolving line of credit, which can be accessed as needed to supplement operating cash flow and cash balances. Available sources of capital and liquidity include, among others, 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. Another major source of future liquidity will be proceeds from our planned asset divestiture program. We estimate the combination of these sources of capital will continue to be adequate to fund future capital expenditures, debt repayments and other contractual commitments.
Operating Cash Flow
Our operating cash flow is sensitive to many variables, the most volatile of which are the prices of the oil, bitumen, gas and NGLs we produce and sell. Our consolidated operating cash flow decreased 91% in the first three months of 2016 compared to the first three months of 2015 as a result of the significant decreases in commodity prices, as well as the protected prices in our hedge contracts. In spite of this decline, we expect operating cash flow to continue to be a key source of liquidity as we adjust our capital program in response to lower commodity prices. Additionally, we anticipate utilizing divestiture proceeds and our credit availability to provide additional liquidity as needed.
To mitigate some of the risk inherent in prices, we utilize various derivative financial instruments to protect a portion of our production against downside price risk. As of April 29, 2016, we had derivative contracts for the last nine months of 2016 as presented below.

Capital Expenditures
Excluding acquisitions and EnLink, our 2016 capital expenditures are expected to range from $1.2 billion to $1.4 billion, including $900 million to $1.1 billion for our oil and gas capital program, and are forecasted to decline throughout the year. As such, our capital expenditures excluding acquisitions and EnLink were $454 million in the first quarter of 2016, are forecasted to range from $325 million to $405 million in the second quarter of 2016 and are forecasted to range from $200 million to $300 million in the third and fourth quarters of 2016.
Credit Availability
As of March 31, 2016, we had $3.0 billion of available capacity under the Senior Credit Facility, net of letters of credit outstanding. This credit facility supports our $3.0 billion commercial paper program. At March 31, 2016, we had no outstanding commercial paper borrowings.
The Senior Credit Facility contains only one material financial covenant. This covenant requires us to maintain a ratio of total funded debt to total capitalization, as defined in the credit agreement, to be no greater than 65%. As of March 31, 2016, we were in compliance with this covenant with a debt-to-capitalization ratio of 22.6%.
EnLink has a $1.5 billion unsecured revolving credit facility, and the General Partner has a $250 million secured revolving credit facility. As of March 31, 2016, there were $11 million in outstanding letters of credit and $543 million outstanding borrowings under the $1.5 billion credit facility, and the General Partner had $9 million in outstanding borrowings under the $250 million credit facility.
Divestiture Program
In 2016, we expect a significant source of liquidity to be generated from the divestitures of non-core assets across our portfolio. In February 2016, we announced a program to divest our interest in Access Pipeline and certain non-core upstream assets targeting total proceeds of $2 billion to $3 billion. On April 15, 2016, we reached an agreement to sell our Mississippian assets for $200 million. The transaction is expected to close in the second quarter of 2016 and will bring our total divestiture proceeds to approximately $300 million. The divestiture process for our remaining non-core assets is ongoing, with the marketing of our interest in Access Pipeline and efforts to monetize the remaining upstream assets in the U.S. continuing to progress. Overall, we remain on track to complete our non-core divestitures by the end of 2016.

EnLink Capital Resources and Expenditures
In January 2016, EnLink acquired additional gathering and processing midstream assets in the Anadarko Basin for approximately $1.5 billion in cash and equity, subject to certain adjustments. The first installment of $1.02 billion for the acquisition was paid at closing, and the final installment of $500 million is due no later than the first anniversary of the closing date, with the option to defer $250 million of the final installment up to 24 months following the closing date.
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, near-term and long-term production growth opportunities and capital allocation challenges. In February 2016, our credit rating was revised by Standard & Poors Financial Services from BBB+ with a negative outlook to BBB with a stable outlook. Moodys Investor Service revised our senior unsecured ratings from Baa1 with a credit watch negative outlook to Ba2 with a negative outlook. Fitch Ratings affirmed our BBB+ rating but revised our outlook from stable to negative.
There are no rating triggers in any of our or EnLinks contractual debt obligations that would accelerate scheduled maturities should our debt rating fall below a specified level. However, these downgrades could adversely impact our and EnLinks interest rate on any credit facility borrowings and the ability to economically access debt markets in the future.
Critical Accounting Estimates
Full Cost Method of Accounting and Proved Reserves
We perform a full cost ceiling impairment test each quarter for our U.S. and Canadian oil and gas properties. The ceiling tests for the first quarter of 2016 resulted in recognizing ceiling impairments on our U.S. and Canadian properties totaling $1.6 billion and $554 million, respectively.
Depending on the relationship between our capitalized costs and calculated full cost ceiling at the time of the most recent ceiling test performed, uncertain future prices limit our ability to predict and measure potential future full cost impairments. However, because the ceiling test computation uses a 12-month trailing price to determine future cash flows, we can typically predict when circumstances will result in future impairments that are material, particularly in the next one to two quarters. However, due to the nature of estimating future cash flows, measuring any potential impairments is more difficult.
Based on prices from the last nine months of the trailing 12-month average and the short-term pricing outlook for the second quarter of 2016, we expect to recognize additional U.S. and Canadian full cost impairments in the second quarter of 2016. While difficult to measure, we estimate that the second quarter 2016 impairments will approximate $2 billion to $3 billion in the aggregate. Our full cost impairments have no effect on liquidity or capital resources. However, they adversely affect our results of operations in the period recognized.
Goodwill
We test goodwill for impairment annually at October 31, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances dictate that the carrying value of goodwill may not be recoverable. Sustained weakness in the overall energy sector driven by low commodity prices, together with a decline in the EnLink unit price, caused a change in circumstances warranting an interim impairment test for EnLinks reporting units.
The goodwill assessment is performed at the reporting unit level and primarily utilizes a discounted cash flow analysis, supplemented by a market approach analysis in the assessment. Key assumptions in the analysis include the use of an appropriate discount rate, terminal year multiples and estimated future cash flows, including volume forecasts and estimated operating and G&A costs. In estimating cash flows, current and historical market information, among other factors, are incorporated.
Using the fair value approaches described above, it was determined that the estimated fair value of EnLinks Texas, General Partner and Crude and Condensate reporting units were less than their carrying amounts, primarily due to changes in assumptions related to commodity prices and discount rates. Through the analysis, a goodwill impairment loss of $473 million, $307 million and $93 million for EnLinks Texas, General Partner and Crude and Condensate reporting units, respectively, was recognized in the first quarter of 2016.
37
As of March 31, 2016, the goodwill allocated to the Crude and Condensate reporting unit was fully impaired. Other than those mentioned above, no other goodwill impairment was identified or recorded for the remaining reporting units as a result of the interim goodwill assessment, as their estimated fair values were in excess of carrying values. However, the fair value of EnLinks Texas reporting unit is not substantially in excess of its carrying value. The fair value of the Texas reporting unit approximates its carrying value after considering the impairment loss above, and as of March 31, 2016, $230 million of goodwill remains allocated to the Texas reporting unit.
Our impairment determinations involved significant assumptions and judgments, as discussed above. Differing assumptions regarding any of these inputs could have a significant effect on the various valuations. If actual future results are not consistent with these assumptions and estimates, or the assumptions and estimates change due to new information, we may be exposed to additional goodwill impairment charges, which would be recognized in the period in which we would determine that the carrying value exceeds fair value. We would expect that a prolonged or sustained period of lower commodity prices would adversely affect the estimate of future operating results, which could result in future goodwill impairments for other reporting units due to the potential impact on the cash flows of our operations.
The goodwill impairment has no effect on liquidity or capital resources. However, it adversely affects our results of operations in the period recognized.
Income Taxes
The amount of income taxes recorded requires interpretations of complex rules and regulations of federal, state, provincial and foreign tax jurisdictions. We recognize current tax expense based on estimated taxable income for the current period and the applicable statutory tax rates. We routinely assess potential uncertain tax positions and, if required, estimate and establish accruals for such amounts. We have recognized deferred tax assets and liabilities for temporary differences, operating losses and other tax carryforwards. We routinely assess our deferred tax assets and reduce such assets by a valuation allowance if we deem it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. At December 31, 2015, we recorded a 100% valuation allowance against the U.S. deferred tax assets that largely resulted from the full cost impairments recognized during 2015. As a result of the continued financial losses in the first quarter of 2016, we continued to have a 100% valuation allowance against our U.S. deferred tax assets as of March 31, 2016.
The accruals for deferred tax assets and liabilities are often based on assumptions that are subject to a significant amount of judgment by management. These assumptions and judgments are reviewed and adjusted as facts and circumstances change. Material changes to our income tax accruals may occur in the future based on the progress of ongoing audits, changes in legislation or resolution of other pending matters.
Non-GAAP Measures
We make reference to core earnings (loss) attributable to Devon and core earnings (loss) per share attributable to Devon in Overview of 2016 Results in this Item 2. that are not required by or presented in accordance with GAAP. These non-GAAP measures should not be considered as alternatives to GAAP measures. Core earnings (loss) attributable to Devon, as well as the per share amount, represent net earnings excluding certain noncash or non-recurring items that are typically excluded by securities analysts in their published estimates of our financial results. Our non-GAAP measures are typically used as a quarterly performance measure. Amounts excluded for the first quarter of 2016 relate to derivatives and financial instrument fair value changes, noncash asset impairments (including an impairment of goodwill), deferred tax asset valuation allowance and restructuring and transaction costs. Amounts excluded for the first quarter of 2015 relate to derivatives and financial instrument fair value changes and noncash asset impairments. We believe these non-GAAP measures facilitate comparisons of our performance to earnings estimates published by securities analysts. We also believe these non-GAAP measures can facilitate comparisons of our performance between periods and to the performance of our peers.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
Commodity Price Risk
We have commodity derivatives that pertain to a portion of our production for the last nine months of 2016, as well as 2017. The key terms to our open oil, gas and NGL derivative financial instruments as of March 31, 2016 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 estimates of the forward curves of the relevant price indices. At March 31, 2016, a 10% change in the forward curves associated with our commodity derivative instruments would have changed our net asset positions by the following amounts:
10% Increase | 10% Decrease | |||||||||
Gain (loss): | (Millions) | |||||||||
Gas derivatives |
$ | (12 | ) | $ | 9 | |||||

$ | (3 | ) | $ | 3 | |||||
Processing and fractionation derivatives |
$ | (3 | ) | $ | 3 |
Interest Rate Risk
At March 31, 2016, we had total debt of $12.5 billion. Of this amount, $11.6 billion bears fixed interest rates averaging 5.4%, and approximately $900 million is comprised of floating rate debt with interest rates averaging 1.8%.
As of March 31, 2016, we had open interest rate swap positions that are presented in Note 3 in Part I. Financial Information Item 1. Financial Statements in this report. The fair values of our interest rate swaps are largely determined by estimates of the forward curves of the 3-month LIBOR rate. A 10% change in these forward curves would not have materially impacted our balance sheet at March 31, 2016.
Foreign Currency Risk
Our net assets, net earnings and cash flows from our Canadian subsidiaries are based on the U.S. dollar equivalent of such amounts measured in the Canadian dollar functional currency. Assets and liabilities of the Canadian subsidiaries are translated to U.S. dollars using the applicable exchange rate as of the end of a reporting period. Revenues, expenses and cash flow are translated using an average exchange rate during the reporting period. A 10% unfavorable change in the Canadian-to-U.S. dollar exchange rate would not have materially impacted our March 31, 2016 balance sheet.
Our non-Canadian foreign subsidiaries have a U.S. dollar functional currency. However, some 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. Additionally, at March 31, 2016, we held foreign currency exchange forward contracts to hedge exposures to fluctuations in exchange rates on certain of our Canadian-dollar cash and intercompany loans. The increase or decrease in the value of the forward contracts is offset by the increase or decrease to the U.S. dollar equivalent of the Canadian-dollar cash and intercompany loans. At March 31, 2016, a 10% change in the foreign exchange rate would have changed the fair value of our foreign currency derivative positions by the following amounts:
As of March 31, 2016 | ||||
Gain (loss): | (Millions) | |||
