Insights

Strong free cash flow, low leverage and a near-term transformative merger define a pivotal quarter for Devon.

Devon generated $816 million of free cash flow in Q1 2026 on operating cash flow of $1.7 billion, while capital spending of $848 million came in about 6% below guidance. Production averaged 833,000 Boe/d, with oil at 46% of volume and at the top end of guidance, indicating solid operational execution.

The balance sheet remains conservative, with net debt of $6.57 billion and net debt‑to‑EBITDAX at 0.9% (0.9x), supported by a cash balance of $1.8 billion and an undrawn $3.0 billion credit facility. This provides flexibility as the company advances a business optimization plan targeting $1 billion in annual pre‑tax free cash flow improvement.

Shareholders of Devon and Coterra approved their all‑stock merger, expected to close on or around May 7, 2026. The combined company aims for $1.0 billion in sustainable annual pre‑tax synergies by year‑end 2027, with Devon shareholders owning about 54% of the new Devon Energy. Subsequent filings in mid‑June 2026 are expected to provide guidance for the combined entity.

Targeted merger synergies $1.0 billion per year Expected sustainable annual pre-tax synergies by year-end 2027
core earnings financial
"the company’s core earnings were $641 million, or $1.04 per diluted share"
Core earnings are the profit a business generates from its normal, ongoing operations after removing one-time gains or losses and unusual accounting adjustments; think of it as the recurring paycheck a household can expect each month rather than a one-off inheritance or sale. Investors care because it highlights the company’s sustainable cash-making ability and makes performance easier to compare across periods and with other firms.
EBITDAX financial
"Devon defines net debt-to-EBITDAX as net debt divided by an annualized EBITDAX measure"
EBITDAX is a measure of a company's operating profit that adds back interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization and exploration costs to net income. Think of it as the cash-generating power of a business before financing, tax effects, non-cash accounting charges and the variable cost of searching for new reserves—useful for comparing companies whose exploration spending or accounting treatments differ. Investors use it to assess core operating performance and short-term cash flow potential without those distortions.
free cash flow financial
"Devon defines free cash flow as total operating cash flow less capital expenditures"
Free cash flow is the amount of money a company has left over after paying all its expenses and investing in its business, like buying equipment or updating facilities. It shows how much cash is available to reward shareholders, pay down debt, or save for future growth. This helps investors understand if a company is financially healthy and able to grow.
three way collars financial
"Oil Commodity Hedges | Three Way Collars"
net debt-to-EBITDAX financial
"Net debt-to-EBITDAX (Non-GAAP) | 0.9"
Net debt-to-EBITDAX is a leverage ratio that compares a company’s debt burden (total debt minus cash) to its recurring cash-generation before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization and certain exploration or one-time items. Think of it as how many years of that adjusted operating cash flow would be needed to pay off the company’s net debt; lower numbers mean less risk and greater ability to handle downturns, which investors use to judge financial strength and repayment capacity.
business optimization plan financial
"the business optimization plan could differ materially from actual results"
Total revenues $3,807 million
Net earnings $120 million
Core earnings $641 million
Diluted EPS (GAAP) $0.19
Diluted EPS (core) $1.04
Free cash flow $816 million

Guidance

For Q2 2026 on a standalone basis, Devon expects production of 851,000–868,000 Boe per day (46% oil) and approximately $900 million in capital spending; full-year 2026 guidance for the combined Devon–Coterra entity will be provided in mid-June 2026.

Business Optimization Success: Projected to reach 100 percent of the $1 billion annual pre-tax free cash flow improvement target well ahead of schedule, providing a strong foundation ahead of merger close

 

   

Robust Cash Generation: Operations generated $1.7 billion of operating cash flow and $816 million of free cash flow during the first quarter

 

   

Accelerated Shareholder Returns: Repurchased $69 million of shares during the first quarter. Announced plans for a new share repurchase authorization in excess of $5 billion and an increase to the quarterly fixed dividend, both following the closing of the Coterra merger and subject to Board approval

 

   

Merger Progress: Both Devon and Coterra shareholders approved the transformative merger on May 4, 2026, with the transaction expected to close on or around May 7, 2026

CEO COMMENTARY

“Devon delivered another strong quarter in the first quarter of 2026, beating guidance across major value drivers, including oil production and capital,” said Clay Gaspar, president and CEO. “Our relentless focus on operational excellence and cost discipline continues to drive significant free cash flow and meaningful returns to shareholders. We are also on track to achieve a significant milestone with the full delivery of our $1 billion business optimization target well ahead of schedule, further strengthening our future margins and positioning Devon for long-term success as we head into the close of our transformative merger with Coterra.”

“With the overwhelming support of both companies’ shareholders, we have cleared a major milestone and are excited to move toward closing this transformative merger with Coterra Energy,” Gaspar added. “As we bring these two organizations together, we are confident in our ability to unlock significant synergies, accelerate free cash flow growth, and deliver enhanced returns to shareholders of the combined company.”

STRATEGIC MERGER WITH COTERRA ENERGY

On Feb. 2, 2026, Devon announced that it had entered into an agreement to combine in an all-stock merger with Coterra Energy.

The combination will create one of the largest shale operators in the world with an asset base anchored by a premier position in the economic core of the Delaware Basin. The go-forward company, to be named Devon Energy, is expected to unlock substantial value for shareholders by leveraging enhanced scale to improve margins, increase free cash flow, and accelerate cash returns through the capture of $1.0 billion in sustainable annual pre-tax synergies, expected to be fully achieved by year-end 2027.

Shareholders of both companies approved the transaction on May 4, 2026, and the merger is expected to close on or around May 7, 2026. Upon completion of the transaction, Devon shareholders will own approximately 54 percent of the combined company and Coterra shareholders will own approximately 46 percent of the combined company on a fully diluted basis.

FINANCIAL RESULTS

Devon reported net earnings of $120 million, or $0.19 per diluted share, in the first quarter of 2026. Adjusting for items analysts typically exclude from estimates, the company’s core earnings were $641 million, or $1.04 per diluted share.

 

1


Devon’s operating cash flow totaled $1.7 billion in the first quarter. The company funded its capital requirements and had $816 million in free cash flow for the quarter.

At the end of the first quarter, Devon had a cash balance of $1.8 billion and an undrawn credit facility of $3.0 billion. Outstanding debt totaled $8.4 billion and the company’s net debt-to-EBITDAX ratio was 0.9 times.

RETURN OF CAPITAL

Devon has not yet declared a quarterly dividend during the second quarter due to the pending merger with Coterra Energy. Following the closing of the merger and subject to Board approval, the company expects to declare a quarterly dividend for the second quarter of $0.315 per share.

The company returned capital to shareholders through the ongoing execution of its $5.0 billion share repurchase program. During the first quarter, Devon repurchased shares for $69 million. In connection with the pending merger with Coterra Energy, the company has suspended share repurchasing activity through the expected closing.

Following the closing of the merger with Coterra Energy, the company expects to establish a new share repurchase authorization in excess of $5 billion, subject to Board approval.

OPERATING RESULTS

Devon’s capital activity in the first quarter averaged 19 operated drilling rigs and 6 completion crews across its asset portfolio. This level of activity resulted in 110 gross operated wells being placed online, with an average lateral length of 10,500 feet. Capital investment, excluding acquisition capital, was $848 million, or 6 percent below guidance. This positive variance was primarily attributable to effective cost management and timing of facility spend. The company also completed $151 million in leasehold acquisitions, primarily in the Delaware Basin, across its portfolio.

Production averaged 833,000 Boe per day in the first quarter, in line with guidance. Oil totaled 387,000 barrels per day in the quarter, which was 46 percent of total volume and at the top-end of the company’s guidance.

Underpinning these results is the continued strong progress in advancing the company’s business optimization plan. With strong momentum established, the company expects to fully achieve its $1 billion annual pre-tax free cash flow improvement target well ahead of schedule with the upcoming repayment of the $1 billion term loan. These actions will continue to strengthen margins and maximize capital efficiency across Devon’s assets.

Q2 2026 OUTLOOK

On a Devon standalone basis, production in the second quarter of 2026 is expected to average 851,000 to 868,000 Boe per day (46 percent oil). Capital spending in the second quarter is expected to be approximately $900 million.

Given the expected closing of the merger with Coterra Energy, the company is not providing full-year 2026 guidance at this time. Guidance for the combined entity will be provided in mid-June 2026.

Additional details of Devon’s forward-looking guidance are available on the company’s website at www.devonenergy.com.

CONFERENCE CALL WEBCAST AND SUPPLEMENTAL EARNINGS MATERIALS

The company’s first-quarter conference call will be held at 10:00 a.m. Central (11:00 a.m. Eastern) on May 6, 2026, and will serve primarily as a forum for analyst and investor questions and answers.

NON-GAAP MEASURES

 

(all monetary values in millions, except per share amounts)

Devon’s earnings materials include non-GAAP financial measures. These non-GAAP measures are not alternatives to GAAP measures, and you should not consider these non-GAAP measures in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. Below is additional disclosure regarding each of the non-GAAP measures used in the earnings materials, including reconciliations to their most directly comparable GAAP measure.

The earnings materials may include forward-looking non-GAAP measures. The company is unable to provide reconciliations of these forward-looking non-GAAP measures, because components of the calculations are inherently unpredictable, such as changes to current assets and liabilities, the timing of changes in capital accruals, unknown future events and estimating certain future GAAP measures. The inability to reliably quantify certain components of the calculation would significantly affect the usefulness and accuracy of a reconciliation.

CORE EARNINGS

Devon’s reported net earnings include items of income and expense that are typically excluded by securities analysts in their published estimates of the company’s financial results. Accordingly, the company also uses the measures of core earnings and core earnings per share attributable to Devon. Devon believes these non-GAAP measures facilitate comparisons of its performance to earnings estimates published by securities analysts. Devon also believes these non-GAAP measures can facilitate comparisons of its performance between periods and to the performance of its peers. The following table summarizes the effects of these items on first-quarter 2026 and fourth-quarter 2025 earnings.

EBITDAX

Devon believes EBITDAX provides information useful in assessing operating and financial performance across periods. Devon computes EBITDAX as net earnings before financing costs, net; income tax expense; 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 normal operations. EBITDAX as defined by Devon may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies.

NET DEBT

Devon defines net debt as debt (includes short-term and long-term debt) less cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash. Devon believes that netting these sources of cash against debt provides a clearer picture of the future demands on cash from Devon to repay debt.

NET DEBT-TO-EBITDAX

Devon defines net debt-to-EBITDAX as net debt divided by an annualized EBITDAX measure. Devon believes this ratio provides information useful to investors in assessing the company’s credit position and debt leverage.

EBITDAX is an annualized measure using a trailing twelve-month calculation.

FREE CASH FLOW

Devon defines free cash flow as total operating cash flow less capital expenditures. Devon believes free cash flow provides a useful measure of available cash generated by operating activities for other investing and financing activities.
