Certain options to purchase shares of Devon’s common stock are excluded from the dilution calculations because the options are antidilutive. During both the three-month and six-month periods ended 2006, 2.6 million shares were excluded from the diluted earnings per share calculations. During the three-months and six-months ended 2005, 36,000 shares and 84,000 shares, respectively, were excluded from the diluted earnings per share calculations.
Change in Accounting Principle
Effective January 1, 2006, Devon adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 123(R),Share-Based Payment, (“SFAS No. 123(R)”), using the modified prospective transition method. SFAS No. 123(R) requires equity-classified share-based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options, to be valued at fair value on the date of grant and to be expensed over the applicable vesting period. Under the modified prospective transition method, share-based awards granted or modified on or after January 1, 2006, are recognized in compensation expense over the applicable vesting period. Also, any previously granted awards that are not fully vested as of January 1, 2006 are recognized as compensation expense over the remaining vesting period. No retroactive or cumulative effect adjustments were required upon Devon’s adoption of SFAS No. 123(R).
Prior to adopting SFAS No. 123(R), Devon accounted for its fixed-plan employee stock options using the intrinsic-value based method prescribed by Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25,Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees,(“APB No. 25”) and related interpretations. This method required compensation expense to be recorded on the date of grant only if the current market price of the underlying stock exceeded the exercise price.
Had Devon elected the fair value provisions of SFAS No. 123(R), Devon’s 2005 net earnings and net earnings per share would have differed from the amounts actually reported as shown in the following table.

As a result of adopting SFAS No. 123(R) on January 1, 2006, Devon’s earnings before income tax expense for the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2006 were $5 million and $11 million lower, respectively, than if Devon had continued to account for share-based compensation under APB No. 25. Also as a result of the adoption, net earnings for the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2006 were $3 million and $7 million lower, respectively, and the related basic and diluted earnings per share were approximately $0.01 per share lower for each 2006 period. Prior to the adoption of SFAS No. 123(R), Devon presented all tax benefits of deductions resulting from the exercise of stock options as operating cash inflows in the statement of cash flows. SFAS No. 123(R) requires the cash inflows resulting from tax deductions in excess of the compensation expense recognized for those stock options (“excess tax benefits”) to be classified as financing cash inflows. As required by SFAS No. 123(R), Devon recognized $7 million of excess tax benefits as financing cash inflows for the six months ended June 30, 2006.
Impact of Recently Issued Accounting Standards Not Yet Adopted
In June 2006, the FASB issued FASB Interpretation Number 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes—an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109.” This Interpretation clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an enterprise’s financial statements in accordance with FASB Statement No. 109, “Accounting for Income Taxes.” This Interpretation is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006. Devon is currently assessing the effect of this Interpretation on its financial statements.

Chief Acquisition
On June 29, 2006, Devon completed its acquisition of privately-owned Chief Holdings LLC (“Chief”). Devon paid $2.0 billion in cash and assumed approximately $0.2 billion of net liabilities in the transaction for a total purchase price of $2.2 billion. Devon funded the acquisition price, and the immediate retirement of $180 million of assumed debt, with $718 million of cash on hand and approximately $1.4 billion of borrowings issued under its commercial paper program. Devon estimates that the acquired properties include proved reserves of 598.2 billion cubic feet of natural gas equivalent and leasehold totaling 169,000 net acres located in the Barnett Shale area of Texas. Devon preliminarily allocated approximately $1.0 billion of the purchase price to proved reserves and approximately $1.2 billion to unproved properties.

5. Debt
New Credit Facility
In April 2006, Devon replaced its existing $1.5 billion five-year unsecured revolving credit facility with a $2.0 billion five-year, syndicated, unsecured revolving line of credit (the “Senior Credit Facility”). In June 2006, Devon amended its Senior Credit Facility to increase the aggregate commitment amount under the Senior Credit Facility from $2.0 billion to $2.5 billion. The amendment also added the right to increase the aggregate commitment further to $3.0 billion, under the same terms and conditions, should Devon deem any additional increase necessary.
The Senior Credit Facility includes a five-year revolving Canadian subfacility in a maximum amount of U.S. $500 million.
The Senior Credit Facility matures on April 7, 2011, and all amounts outstanding will be due and payable at that time unless the maturity is extended. Prior to each April 7 anniversary date, Devon has the option to extend the maturity of the Senior Credit Facility for one year, subject to the approval of the lenders.
Amounts borrowed under the Senior Credit Facility may, at Devon’s election, bear interest at various fixed rate options for periods of up to twelve months. Such rates are generally less than the prime rate. Devon may also elect to borrow at the prime rate. The Senior Credit Facility currently provides for an annual facility fee of $2.3 million that is payable quarterly in arrears.
As of June 30, 2006, there were no borrowings under the Senior Credit Facility. The available capacity under the Senior Credit Facility as of June 30, 2006, net of $287 million of outstanding letters of credit and $1.4 billion of outstanding commercial paper, was approximately $788 million.
�� The Senior Credit Facility contains only one material financial covenant. This covenant requires Devon to maintain a ratio of total funded debt to total capitalization, as defined in the credit agreement, of no more than 65%. As of June 30, 2006, Devon was in compliance with such covenants and restrictions. Devon’s debt-to-capitalization ratio at June 30, 2006, as calculated pursuant to the terms of the agreement, was 29.3%.

Commercial Paper
On June 28, 2006, Devon commenced issuing commercial paper under its program. Devon may borrow up to $2.0 billion under the commercial paper program. Also, any borrowings under the commercial paper program reduce available capacity under the Senior Credit Facility on a dollar-for-dollar basis. Commercial paper debt generally has a maturity of between one to 90 days, although it can have a maturity of up to 365 days, and bears interest at rates agreed to at the time of the borrowing. The interest rate is based on a standard index such as the Federal Funds Rate, London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR), or the money market rate as found in the commercial paper market. As of June 30, 2006, Devon had $1.4 billion of commercial paper outstanding at an average rate of 5.45%. The $1.4 billion of commercial paper is classified as current in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet.
6. Income Taxes
During the second quarter of 2006, the Canadian Federal and Alberta provincial governments enacted statutory rate reductions. As a result of these rate reductions, Devon recorded a $243 million deferred tax benefit in such quarter. Also during the second quarter of 2006, the state of Texas enacted a new income-based tax that replaces a previous franchise tax. The new tax is effective January 1, 2007. As a result of the enactment of the new tax in the second quarter of 2006, Devon recorded $39 million of deferred tax expense in such quarter.
7. Stockholders’ Equity

The shares repurchased in 2006 were repurchased at a cost of $253 million, or $59.61, per share. The shares repurchased in 2005 were repurchased at a cost of $1.6 billion, or $45.62, per share.
On August 3, 2005, Devon announced that its board of directors had authorized the repurchase of up to 50 million shares of our common stock. As of August 1, 2006, Devon had repurchased 6.5 million shares under this program for $387 million, or $59.80 per share. As a result of the Chief acquisition (see Note 4), this repurchase program has been suspended and will be reevaluated at a later date.
Share-Based Compensation Plans
As discussed in Note 1, on January 1, 2006, Devon changed its method of accounting for share-based compensation from the APB No. 25 intrinsic value accounting method to the fair value recognition provisions of SFAS No. 123(R). Currently, Devon’s share-based compensation includes amounts related to grants of nonqualified and incentive stock options, restricted stock awards and restricted stock units.

Devon estimates the fair values of stock options granted using a Black-Scholes option valuation model, which requires Devon to make several assumptions. The volatility of Devon’s common stock is based on the historical volatility of the market price of Devon’s common stock over a period of time equal to the expected term of the option and ending on the grant date. The dividend yield is based on Devon’s historical and current yield in effect at the date of grant. The risk-free interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury yield for the expected term of the option at the date of grant. The expected term of the options is based on historical exercise and termination experience for various groups of employees and directors. Each group is determined based on the similarity of their historical exercise and termination behavior.
Included in the following table is a summary of the grant-date fair values of stock options granted and the related assumptions. All such amounts represent the weighted-average amounts for each period.

9. Retirement Plans
Devon has various non-contributory defined benefit pension plans, including qualified plans (“Qualified Plans”) and nonqualified plans (“Supplemental Plans”). The Qualified Plans provide retirement benefits for U.S. and Canadian employees meeting certain age and service requirements. The Supplemental Plans provide retirement benefits for certain employees whose benefits under the Qualified Plans are limited by income tax regulations. Devon also has defined benefit postretirement plans (“Postretirement Plans”) which provide benefits for substantially all employees. The Postretirement Plans provide medical and, in some cases, life insurance benefits and are, depending on the type of plan, either contributory or non-contributory.

Employer Contributions
Devon previously disclosed in its financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2005, that it expected to contribute $7 million to the Qualified and Supplemental Plans in 2006 and $5 million to the Postretirement Plans in 2006. As of June 30, 2006, Devon has contributed $3 million to the Qualified and Supplemental Plans and $3 million to the Postretirement Plans.
10. 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 although actual amounts could differ materially from management’s estimate.
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 (“CERCLA”) and similar state statutes. In response to liabilities associated with these activities, accruals have been established when reasonable estimates are possible. Such accruals primarily include estimated costs associated with remediation. Devon has not used discounting in determining its accrued liabilities for environmental remediation, and no material claims for possible recovery from third party insurers or other parties related to environmental costs have been recognized in Devon’s consolidated financial statements. Devon adjusts the accruals when new remediation responsibilities are discovered and probable costs become estimable, or when current remediation estimates must be adjusted to reflect new information.
Certain of Devon’s subsidiaries acquired in past mergers are involved in matters in which it has been alleged that such subsidiaries are potentially responsible parties (“PRPs”) under CERCLA or similar state legislation with respect to various waste disposal areas owned or operated by third parties. As of

June 30, 2006, Devon’s consolidated balance sheet included $5 million of non-current accrued liabilities, reflected in “Other liabilities,” related to these and other environmental remediation liabilities. Devon does not currently believe there is a reasonable possibility of incurring additional material costs in excess of the current accruals recognized for such environmental remediation activities. With respect to the sites in which Devon subsidiaries are PRPs, Devon’s conclusion is based in large part on (i) Devon’s participation in consent decrees with both other PRPs and the Environmental Protection Agency, which provide for performing the scope of work required for remediation and contain covenants not to sue as protection to the PRPs, (ii) participation in groups as ade minimisPRP, and (iii) the availability of other defenses to liability. As a result, Devon’s monetary exposure is not expected to be material.
Royalty Matters
Numerous gas producers and related parties, including Devon, have been named in various lawsuits alleging violation of the federal False Claims Act. The suits allege that the producers and related parties used below-market prices, improper deductions, improper measurement techniques and transactions with affiliates which resulted in underpayment of royalties in connection with natural gas and natural gas liquids produced and sold from federal and Indian owned or controlled lands. The principal suit in which Devon is a defendant isUnited States ex rel. Wright v. Chevron USA, Inc. et al.(the “Wrightcase”). The suit was originally filed in August 1996 in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Texas, but was consolidated in October 2000 with the other suits for pre-trial proceedings in the United States District Court for the District of Wyoming. On July 10, 2003, the District of Wyoming remanded theWrightcase back to the Eastern District of Texas to resume proceedings. On February 1, 2006, the Court entered a scheduling order in which trial is set for November 2007 if the suit continues to advance. Devon believes that it has acted reasonably, has legitimate and strong defenses to all allegations in the suit, and has paid royalties in good faith. Devon does not currently believe that it is subject to material exposure in association with this lawsuit and no liability has been recorded in connection therewith.
In 1995, the United States Congress passed the Deep Water Royalty Relief Act (the “DWRRA”). The intent of the DWRRA was to encourage deep water exploration in the Gulf of Mexico by providing relief from the obligation to pay royalties on certain federal leases. The DWRRA granted royalty relief, without regard to the market prices of oil or natural gas, with respect to leases issued between November 28, 1995 and November 28, 2000. However, in regulations promulgated by the Minerals Management Service (the “MMS”) subsequent to the passage of the DWRRA, the MMS imposed price thresholds on certain of these deep water leases issued in 1996, 1997 and 2000, such that if the market prices for oil or natural gas exceeded the thresholds for a given year, royalty relief would not be granted for that year.
The MMS has issued an order to Devon and other oil and gas producers to pay royalties on production from these leases issued in 1996, 1997 and 2000 due to market prices exceeding the price thresholds in recent years. Devon and certain other oil and gas producers have filed Administrative Appeals with the MMS contesting the MMS’ orders. In March 2006, one oil and gas producer filed suit in Federal court against the Department of Interior challenging the MMS’ authority to suspend royalty relief on the subject leases. Subsequently, in June 2006, such producer announced that it and the Department of Interior had agreed to ask the court to postpone the entry of a scheduling order while the two parties undertake efforts to mediate the disagreement.
Devon does not believe that the MMS has the legal authority to suspend the royalty relief granted by the DWRRA. This is based in part on prior successful litigation against the Department of Interior and the MMS involving similar issues related to the DWRRA. Accordingly, Devon has not accrued for any

such royalties in its consolidated financial statements. If it were to be found that the MMS’ regulations are valid, Devon estimates that as of June 30, 2006, it would owe royalties and interest totaling $14 million for production from properties obtained in the leases issued in 1996, 1997 and 2000.
Deep water leases issued in 1998 and 1999 did not include price thresholds. However, numerous government officials have recently called for the renegotiation of the leases issued in 1998 and 1999, with the renegotiated terms to include price thresholds. Legislation has been discussed that would prohibit companies from bidding on new leases if they have not paid royalties on properties obtained in 1998 and 1999 leases. In June and July 2006, the MMS issued letters to Devon and other oil and gas producers who acquired leases issued in 1998 and 1999. In such letters, the MMS acknowledges that the 1998 and 1999 leases do not include price thresholds, but maintains that such omission was an error on its part and was not its intention. While the MMS has confirmed that it will continue to honor the terms of these leases as issued, it notes the concerns being expressed by Congress and has invited Devon and the other affected oil and gas producers to renegotiate the terms and conditions of the 1998 and 1999 leases to add price threshold provisions. Devon has not yet met with the MMS on this issue and will not determine its course of action until such a meeting takes place. However, if Devon were to agree to renegotiate the terms of its 1998 and 1999 leases to include price threshold provisions, Devon would expect that such provisions would only be effective on a prospective basis.
Equatorial Guinea Investigation
The SEC has been conducting an inquiry into payments made to the government of Equatorial Guinea, and to officials and persons affiliated with officials of the government of Equatorial Guinea. On August 9, 2005, Devon received a subpoena issued by the SEC pursuant to a formal order of investigation. Devon has cooperated fully with the SEC’s previous requests for information in this inquiry and plans to continue to work with the SEC in connection with its formal investigation.
Hurricane Contingencies
Devon maintains a comprehensive insurance program that includes coverage for physical damage to its offshore facilities caused by hurricanes. Devon’s insurance program also includes substantial business interruption coverage which Devon expects to utilize to recover costs associated with the suspended production related to hurricanes that struck the Gulf of Mexico in the third quarter of 2005. Under the terms of the insurance program, Devon is entitled to be reimbursed for the portion of production suspended longer than forty-five days, subject to upper limits to oil and natural gas prices. Also, the terms of the insurance include a standard, per-event deductible of $1 million for offshore losses as well as a $15 million aggregate annual deductible. Based on current estimates of physical damage and the anticipated length of time Devon will have production suspended, Devon expects its policy recoveries will exceed repair costs and deductible amounts. This expectation is based upon several variables, including the amount of partial settlements that have been agreed to in July 2006. Should Devon’s total policy recoveries exceed repair costs and deductible amounts, the excess will be recognized as other income in the statement of operations.
The policy underlying the insurance program terms described above expires on August 31, 2006. Devon is currently working with its insurers to renew this policy and continue an insurance program that includes comprehensive coverage, including business interruption and physical damage coverage, for its business. Although Devon has not finalized the exact terms of its new coverage, it expects the new policy terms related to damage from named windstorms in the Gulf of Mexico will be materially different from the terms of its existing coverage. Devon expects the new coverage will include reduced coverage limits and higher deductibles and retention amounts as compared to those currently in effect.

Other Matters
Devon is involved in other various routine legal proceedings incidental to its business. However, to Devon’s knowledge as of the date of this report, there were no other material pending legal proceedings to which Devon is a party or to which any of its property is subject.
11. Reduction of Carrying Value of Oil and Gas Properties
During the second quarter of 2006, Devon drilled two unsuccessful exploratory wells in Brazil and determined that the capitalized costs related to these two wells should be impaired. Therefore, in the second quarter of 2006, Devon recognized a $16 million impairment of its investment in Brazil equal to the costs to drill the two dry holes and a proportionate share of block-related costs. There is no tax benefit related to this impairment. The two wells were unrelated to Devon’s Polvo development project in Brazil.
Devon has committed to drill four wells in Nigeria. The first two wells were unsuccessful. After drilling the second unsuccessful well in the first quarter of 2006, Devon determined that the capitalized costs related to these two wells should be impaired. Therefore, in the first quarter of 2006, Devon recognized an $85 million impairment of its investment in Nigeria equal to the costs to drill the two dry holes and a proportionate share of block-related costs. There is no tax benefit related to this impairment.

Item 2.Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
The following discussion addresses material changes in results of operations for the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2006, compared to the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2005, and in financial condition since December 31, 2005. It is presumed that readers have read or have access to Devon’s 2005 Annual Report on Form 10-K which includes disclosures regarding critical accounting policies as part of Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations. Unless otherwise stated, all dollar amounts are expressed in U.S. dollars.
Overview
We continued to execute our strategy to increase value per share. On June 29, 2006, we completed our acquisition of privately-owned Chief Holdings LLC (“Chief”). We paid $2.0 billion in cash and assumed approximately $0.2 billion of net liabilities in the transaction. We funded the acquisition price, and the immediate retirement of $180 million of assumed debt, with $718 million of cash on hand and approximately $1.4 billion of borrowings issued under our commercial paper program. We estimate that the acquired properties include proved reserves of 598.2 billion cubic feet of natural gas equivalent and leasehold totaling 169,000 net acres located in the Barnett Shale area of Texas. We preliminarily allocated approximately $1.0 billion of the purchase price to proved reserves and approximately $1.2 billion to unproved properties. The Chief acquisition had a minimal impact on our second quarter 2006 results of operations since it closed on June 29, 2006.
The following summarizes our performance for the three-months and six-months ended 2006 compared to the three-months and six-months ended 2005:
| • | | Net earnings for the second quarter and first half of 2006 increased 31% and 28%, respectively |
|
| • | | Earnings per diluted share for the second quarter and first half of 2006 rose 39% and 37%, respectively |
|
| • | | Net cash provided by operating activities for the first half of 2006 increased 18% to $2.8 billion |
|
| • | | Combined realized price for oil, gas and NGLs for the second quarter and first half of 2006 climbed 18% and 27%, respectively |
|
| • | | Marketing and midstream operating profit for the second quarter and first half of 2006 rose 17% and 30%, respectively |
|
| • | | Production decreased 2% for the second quarter, and was unchanged for the first half of 2006, excluding the effects of our 2005 sales of non-core properties and production suspended due to hurricanes |
|
| • | | Per unit operating costs increased 18% and 17% for the second quarter and first half of 2006, respectively, due to cost inflation driven by commodity price increases and due to the weakened U.S. dollar compared to the Canadian dollar |
|
| • | | Deferred income taxes in the second quarter and first half of 2006 include a $204 million net benefit due to the effects of statutory rate reductions enacted by the Canadian Federal and Alberta provincial governments, partially offset by a new income-based tax enacted by the state of Texas |
A more complete overview and discussion of full year expectations can be found in “Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in Devon’s 2005 Annual Report on Form 10-K and in a Form 8-K dated August 2, 2006 that includes certain updated 2006 estimates.

Oil Revenues
Oil revenues increased $207 million in the second quarter of 2006. Oil revenues increased $355 million due to a $26.41 per barrel increase in our realized average price of oil. A three million barrel decrease in production caused oil revenues to decrease by $148 million. Production lost from the 2005 property divestitures accounted for one million barrels of the decrease. We also suspended certain domestic oil production in 2005 and 2006 due to the effects of Hurricanes Katrina, Rita, Dennis and Ivan. Compared to the second quarter of 2005, there were one million additional barrels of suspended production in the second quarter of 2006 due to the hurricanes. The remaining one million barrel decrease in 2006 is primarily due to certain international properties for which we are receiving fewer volumes after recovering our costs under the production sharing contracts. Operating issues also contributed to the decrease.
Oil revenues increased $307 million in the first half of 2006. Oil revenues increased $609 million due to a $22.67 per barrel increase in our realized average price of oil. An eight million barrel decrease in production caused oil revenues to decrease by $302 million. Production lost from the 2005 property divestitures caused a decrease of three million barrels. Compared to the first half of 2005, there were one million additional barrels of suspended production in the first half of 2006 due to the previously mentioned hurricanes. In addition, production decreased due to certain international properties for which we are receiving fewer volumes after recovering our costs under applicable production sharing contracts. Operating issues also contributed to the decrease.
Gas Revenues
Gas revenues decreased $102 million in the second quarter of 2006. Gas revenues decreased $52 million due to a $0.26 per Mcf decrease in our realized average price of gas. A decrease in production of eight Bcf caused gas revenues to decrease by $50 million. Production lost from the 2005 property divestitures caused a decrease of eight Bcf. Compared to the second quarter of 2005, there was an additional seven Bcf of suspended production in the second quarter of 2006 due to the previously mentioned hurricanes. This decrease was partially offset by new drilling and development and increased performance in U.S. offshore and onshore properties.
Gas revenues increased $87 million in the first half of 2006. Gas revenues increased $264 million due to a $0.67 per Mcf increase in our realized average price of gas. A decrease in production of 31 Bcf caused gas revenues to decrease by $177 million. Production lost from the 2005 property divestitures caused a decrease of 33 Bcf. Compared to the first half of 2005, there was an additional 17 Bcf of suspended production in the first half of 2006 due to the previously mentioned hurricanes. These decreases were partially offset by production increases resulting from new drilling and development in U.S. offshore and onshore properties.
28
NGL Revenues
NGL revenues increased $36 million in the second quarter of 2006. A $7.84 per barrel increase in our realized average NGL price in the second quarter of 2006 increased NGL revenues by $45 million. A slight decrease in production caused NGL revenues to decrease by $8 million.
NGL revenues increased $67 million in the first half of 2006. A $6.83 per barrel increase in our realized average NGL price in the first half of 2006 increased NGL revenues by $79 million. A slight decrease in production caused NGL revenues to decrease by $12 million.
Marketing and Midstream Revenues
Marketing and midstream revenues increased $8 million, in the second quarter of 2006. Revenues increased $11 million primarily due to higher NGL prices. This increase was partially offset by lower gas sales volumes, which caused revenues to decrease $3 million.
Marketing and midstream revenues increased $54 million in the first half of 2006. Revenues increased $96 million primarily due to higher NGL and gas prices. This was partially offset by lower gas sales volumes, which caused revenues to decrease $42 million.
Oil, Gas and NGL Production and Operating Expenses

Lease operating expenses increased $24 million in the second quarter of 2006. The increase in lease operating expense was largely caused by higher commodity prices. With the overall increase in oil, gas and NGL prices, more well workovers and repairs and maintenance costs were performed to either maintain or improve production volumes. Such costs also increased due to inflationary pressure driven by higher commodity prices. Commodity price increases also caused such operating costs as ad valorem taxes, power and fuel costs to rise. Additionally, changes in the Canadian-to-U.S. dollar exchange rate resulted in a $13 million increase in costs. Partially offsetting these increases was a decrease of $20 million in lease operating expenses related to properties that were sold in 2005.
Lease operating expenses increased $25 million in the first half of 2006. As discussed in the previous paragraph, the increase in lease operating expense for the first half of 2006 was largely caused by higher commodity prices. Additionally, changes in the Canadian-to-U.S. dollar exchange rate resulted
29
in a $20 million increase in costs. Partially offsetting these increases was a decrease of $76 million in lease operating expenses related to properties that were sold in 2005.
The increases described above were also the primary factors causing lease operating expenses per Boe to increase during the second quarter and first half of 2006. Although we divested properties that had higher per-unit operating costs, the cost escalation largely related to higher commodity prices and the weaker U.S. dollar compared to the Canadian dollar had a greater effect on our per unit costs than the property divestitures.
Production taxes increased $11 million in the second quarter of 2006 and $16 million in the first half of 2006. The majority of our production taxes are assessed on our onshore domestic properties. In the U.S., most of the production taxes are based on a fixed percentage of revenues. Therefore, the 2% and 7% increases in domestic oil, gas and NGL revenues in the second quarter and first half of 2006, respectively, were the primary causes of the production tax increases. The remainder of the increase was primarily due to a new Chinese “Special Petroleum Gain” tax based on higher oil prices. In the second quarter of 2006, we recorded $9 million from this new tax.
Marketing and Midstream Operating Costs and Expenses
Marketing and midstream operating costs and expenses decreased $8 million in the second quarter of 2006. Expenses decreased $12 million primarily due to lower gas sales volumes. This was partially offset by an $4 million increase in costs and expenses primarily due to higher NGL prices.
Marketing and midstream operating costs and expenses remained consistent in the first half of 2006. Expenses increased $45 million primarily due to higher NGL and gas purchase prices. This was completely offset by lower gas sales volumes.
Depreciation, Depletion and Amortization Expenses (“DD&A”)
DD&A of oil and gas properties is calculated as the percentage of total proved reserve volumes produced during the year, multiplied by the net capitalized investment plus future development costs in those reserves (the “depletable base”). Generally, if reserve volumes are revised up or down, then the DD&A rate per unit of production will change inversely. However, if the depletable base changes, then the DD&A rate moves in the same direction. The per unit DD&A rate is not affected by production volumes. Absolute or total DD&A, as opposed to the rate per unit of production, generally moves in the same direction as production volumes. Oil and gas property DD&A is calculated separately on a country-by-country basis.
Oil and gas property DD&A increased $62 million in the second quarter of 2006. DD&A increased $109 million due to an increase in the combined U.S., Canadian and international DD&A rate from $8.48 per Boe in the second quarter of 2005 to $10.56 per Boe in the second quarter of 2006. This increase was partially offset by a 10% decrease in the combined oil, gas and NGL production in the second quarter of 2006 which caused oil and gas property DD&A to decrease by $47 million. The primary factors contributing to the DD&A rate increase were changes in the Canadian-to-U.S. dollar exchange rate and inflationary pressure on both the costs incurred in the prior twelve months as well as the estimated development costs to be spent in future periods on proved undeveloped reserves. In addition, the DD&A rate also increased as a result of unproved costs which, in the second quarter of 2005, were not being amortized but were subsequently transferred to the depletable base as a result of drilling activities.
Oil and gas property DD&A increased $28 million in the first half of 2006. DD&A increased $151 million due to an increase in the combined U.S., Canadian and international DD&A rate from $8.79 per Boe in the first half of 2005 to $10.25 per Boe in the first half of 2006. This increase was partially
30
offset by a 12% decrease in the combined oil, gas and NGL production in the first half of 2006 which caused oil and gas property DD&A to decrease by $123 million. The primary factors contributing to the DD&A rate increase were changes in the Canadian-to-U.S. dollar exchange rate and inflationary pressure on both the costs incurred in the prior twelve months as well as the estimated development costs to be spent in future periods on proved undeveloped reserves. In addition, the DD&A rate also increased as a result of unproved costs which, in the first half of 2005, were not being amortized but were subsequently transferred to the depletable base as a result of drilling activities.
General and Administrative Expenses (“G&A”)
Devon’s net G&A consists of three primary components. The largest of these components is the gross amount of expenses incurred for personnel costs, office expenses, professional fees and other G&A items. The gross amount of these expenses is partially reduced by two components. One is the amount of G&A capitalized pursuant to the full cost method of accounting related to exploration and development activities. The other is the amount of G&A reimbursed by working interest owners of properties for which Devon serves as the operator. These reimbursements are received during both the drilling and operational stages of a property’s life. The gross amount of G&A incurred, less the amounts capitalized and reimbursed, is recorded as net G&A in the consolidated statements of operations. Net G&A includes expenses related to oil, gas and NGL exploration and production activities, as well as marketing and midstream activities. See the following table for a summary of G&A expenses by component.
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |

Net G&A | | $ | 90 | | | | 78 | | | | 180 | | | | 136 | |
| | | | | | | | | | | | |
Gross G&A increased $27 million in the second quarter of 2006 compared to the same period of 2005. Higher employee compensation and benefits costs caused gross G&A to increase $21 million. Of this increase, $7 million represented stock option expense recognized pursuant to our adoption of Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 123(R),Share Based Payment,in the first quarter of 2006, and $3 million represented an increase in restricted stock expense due to our grants subsequent to the second quarter of 2005. In addition, changes in the Canadian-to-U.S. dollar exchange rate caused a $4 million increase in costs.
Gross G&A increased $68 million from the first half of 2006 compared to the same period of 2005. Higher employee compensation and benefits costs caused gross G&A to increase $47 million. Of this increase, $15 million represented stock option expense recognized pursuant to our adoption of Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 123(R),Share Based Payment,in the first quarter of 2006, and $8 million represented an increase in restricted stock expense due to our grants subsequent to the second quarter of 2005. In addition, changes in the Canadian-to-U.S. dollar exchange rate caused a $7 million increase in costs.
Capitalized G&A increased $17 million and $27 million in the second quarter and first half of 2006, respectively, primarily due to increases in capitalizable salaries and benefits.

Interest Expense
The following schedule includes the components of interest expense for the second quarter and first half of 2006 and 2005.
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| | Three Months | | | Six Months | |
| | Ended June 30, | | | Ended June 30, | |

Total interest expense | | $ | 102 | | | | 146 | | | | 203 | | | | 264 | |
| | | | | | | | | | | | |
The average debt balance decreased from $7.8 billion in the second quarter of 2005 to $6.7 billion in the second quarter of 2006 due to debt repayments during 2005. This decrease in debt outstanding caused interest expense to decrease $20 million. This decrease in interest expense was partially offset by $5 million of additional interest due to higher floating rates in 2006. The average interest rate on outstanding debt increased from 6.8% in the second quarter of 2005 to 7.0% in the second quarter of 2006.
The average debt balance decreased from $7.9 billion in the first half of 2005 to $6.7 billion in the first half of 2006 due to debt repayments during 2005. This decrease in debt outstanding caused interest expense to decrease $43 million. This decrease in interest expense was partially offset by $11 million of additional interest due to higher floating rates in 2006. The average interest rate on outstanding debt increased from 6.8% in the first half of 2005 to 7.0% in the first half of 2006.
Other items included in interest expense that are not related to the debt balance outstanding were $29 million lower in the second quarter and the first half of 2006. Of this decrease, $25 million related to the loss on the early redemption of the zero coupon convertible senior debentures during the second quarter of 2005. In conjunction with this early redemption, Devon also expensed $5 million in remaining unamortized issuance costs during the second quarter of 2005.
Changes in Fair Value of Derivative Financial Instruments
The following schedule includes the components of the change in fair value of derivative financial instruments for the second quarter and first half of 2006 and 2005.
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| | Three Months | | | Six Months | |
| | Ended June 30, | | | Ended June 30, | |
| | 2006 | | | 2005 | | | 2006 | | | 2005 | |
| | | | | | (In millions) | | | | | |
Change in fair value of the option embedded in debentures exchangeable into shares of Chevron Corporation common stock | | $ | 47 | | | | (22 | ) | | | 61 | | | | 29 | |
Ineffectiveness of commodity hedges | | | — | | | | 3 | | | | — | | | | 6 | |
Other | | | — | | | | 1 | | | | (2 | ) | | | (1 | ) |
| | | | | | | | | | | | |
Total | | $ | 47 | | | | (18 | ) | | | 59 | | | | 34 | |
| | | | | | | | | | | | |
The fair value of the option embedded in debentures exchangeable into shares of Chevron Corporation common stock is driven primarily by the price of Chevron Corporation’s common stock. As
32
a result, increases or decreases in the price of such common stock generally will cause the fair value of this embedded option to increase or decrease in a like manner.
Reduction of Carrying Value of Oil and Gas Properties
During the second quarter of 2006, we drilled two unsuccessful exploratory wells in Brazil and determined that the capitalized costs related to these two wells should be impaired. Therefore, in the second quarter of 2006, we recognized a $16 million impairment of our investment in Brazil equal to the costs to drill the two dry holes and a proportionate share of block-related costs. There is no tax benefit related to this impairment. The two wells were unrelated to our Polvo development project in Brazil.
We have committed to drill four wells in Nigeria. The first two wells were unsuccessful. After drilling the second unsuccessful well in the first quarter of 2006, we determined that the capitalized costs related to these two wells should be impaired. Therefore, in the first quarter of 2006, we recognized an $85 million impairment of our investment in Nigeria equal to the costs to drill the two dry holes and a proportionate share of block-related costs. There is no tax benefit related to this impairment.
Other Income, net
The following schedule includes the components of other income for the three and six months periods ended June 30.
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| | Three Months | | | Six Months | |
| | Ended June 30, | | | Ended June 30, | |
| | 2006 | | | 2005 | | | 2006 | | | 2005 | |
| | | | | | (In millions) | | | | | |
Interest and dividend income | | $ | 28 | | | | 25 | | | | 56 | | | | 51 | |
Net gain on sales of non-oil and gas property and equipment | | | 1 | | | | — | | | | 5 | | | | 150 | |
Loss on derivative financial instruments | | | — | | | | (16 | ) | | | — | | | | (55 | ) |
Other | | | 1 | | | | 5 | | | | (3 | ) | | | 6 | |
| | | | | | | | | | | | |
Other income, net | | $ | 30 | | | | 14 | | | | 58 | | | | 152 | |
| | | | | | | | | | | | |
The increases in interest and dividend income in the second quarter and first half of 2006 were primarily due to an increase in interest rates on cash and short-term investment balances.
The increase in the net gain on sales of non-oil and gas property and equipment in the first half of 2005 is related to the sale of certain midstream assets in January 2005.
The losses on derivative financial instruments in the second quarter and first half of 2005 related to hedges that no longer qualified for hedge accounting and were settled prior to the end of their original term. These commodity hedges related to 5,000 barrels per day of U.S. oil production and 3,000 barrels per day of Canadian oil production from properties sold as part of our property divestiture program.
Income Taxes
During interim periods, income tax expense is based on the estimated effective income tax rate that is expected for the entire fiscal year. The estimated effective tax rate was 18% in the second quarter of 2006 and 35% in the second quarter of 2005. The estimated effective tax rate was 28% in the first half of 2006 and 37% in the first half of 2005.
The rates for the second quarter and first half of 2006 were lower than the statutory federal tax rate primarily due to the effects of tax law changes. During the second quarter of 2006, the Canadian Federal and Alberta provincial governments enacted statutory rate reductions. As a result, we recorded a
33
$243 million deferred tax benefit in such quarter. Also during the second quarter of 2006, the state of Texas enacted a new income-based tax that replaces a previous franchise tax. The new tax is effective January 1, 2007. As a result of the enactment of the tax in the second quarter of 2006, we recorded $39 million of deferred tax expense in such quarter. Excluding the effects of these statutory tax rate changes and the effects of the oil and gas property impairments with no related tax benefits which were previously discussed, the effective rates were 36% for both the second quarter and first half of 2006.
Capital Resources, Uses and Liquidity
The following discussion of liquidity and capital resources should be read in conjunction with the consolidated statements of cash flows included in Part 1, Item 1.

| | | | | | |
Cash Flows from Operating Activities
Net cash provided by operating activities (“operating cash flow”) continued to be a primary source of capital and liquidity in the first half of 2006. The increase in operating cash flow in the first half of 2006 was primarily caused by the increase in net earnings as discussed in the “Results of Operations” section of this report.
Cash Flows from Investing Activities
Capital Expenditures.Cash used for capital expenditures in the first half of 2006 was $4.7 billion. This total includes $4.5 billion for the acquisition, drilling or development of oil and gas properties, including $2.0 billion related to the acquisition of the Chief properties. These amounts compare to cash used for capital expenditures of $2.0 billion in the first half of 2005 which included $1.9 billion for the acquisition, drilling or development of oil and gas properties.
Proceeds from the Sale of Property and Equipment.We generated sale proceeds of $26 million and $2.2 billion in the first half of 2006 and 2005, respectively. The decrease in proceeds in 2006 was largely due to our 2005 divesture program in which we sold non-core oil and gas properties as well as non-core midstream assets.
Cash Flows from Financing Activities
Debt Borrowings.During the second quarter of 2006, we issued $1.4 billion of commercial paper to partially fund the Chief acquisition.
Debt Repayments.During the first half of 2006, we paid $180 million to retire the debt assumed through the Chief acquisition and made other payments totaling $28 million. During the first half of
34
2005, we paid $452 million to redeem the zero coupon convertible debentures.
Stock Repurchases.During the first half of 2006, we repurchased 4.2 million shares at a cost of $253 million. This compares to the repurchase of 34.2 million shares for $1.6 billion in the first half of 2005.
Issuance of Common Stock.We received proceeds of $27 million and $81 million from shares issued primarily from the exercise of employee stock options in the first half of 2006 and 2005, respectively.
Dividends.Devon’s common stock dividends were $99 million and $70 million in the first half of 2006 and 2005, respectively. We also paid $5 million of preferred stock dividends in 2006 and 2005. The increase in common stock dividends from 2005 to 2006 was primarily related to a 50% increase in the quarterly dividend rate which was partially offset by a decrease in the number of shares outstanding. Effective with the first quarter 2006 dividend payment, Devon increased its quarterly dividend rate from $0.075 per share to $0.1125 per share. The decrease in shares outstanding was primarily related to share repurchases partially offset by shares issued for stock option exercises.
Liquidity
At June 30, 2006, our unrestricted cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments totaled $1.4 billion. During the first half of 2006 and 2005, such balances decreased $924 million and increased $657 million, respectively. The decrease in 2006 was primarily driven by the use of cash on hand to partially fund the Chief acquisition.
Historically, our primary source of capital and liquidity has been operating cash flow. Additionally, we maintain a revolving line of credit and a commercial paper program which can be accessed as needed to supplement operating cash flow. Other available sources of capital and liquidity include the issuance of equity securities and long-term debt. We expect the combination of these sources of capital will be more than adequate to fund future capital expenditures and other contractual commitments.
Operating Cash Flow
Our operating cash flow is sensitive to many variables, the most volatile of which is pricing of the oil, natural gas and NGLs produced. Prices for these commodities are determined primarily by prevailing market conditions. Regional and worldwide economic activity, weather and other substantially variable factors influence market conditions for these products. These factors are beyond our control and are difficult to predict. We expect operating cash flow to continue to be our primary source of liquidity.
Credit Lines
Another source of liquidity is our $2.5 billion five-year, syndicated, unsecured revolving line of credit (the “Senior Credit Facility”). The Senior Credit Facility also includes the right to increase the aggregate commitment further to $3.0 billion should we deem any additional increase necessary.
The Senior Credit Facility includes a five-year revolving Canadian subfacility in a maximum amount of U.S. $500 million.
The Senior Credit Facility matures on April 7, 2011, and all amounts outstanding will be due and payable at that time unless the maturity is extended. Prior to each April 7 anniversary date, we have the option to extend the maturity of the Senior Credit Facility for one year, subject to the approval of the lenders.
Amounts borrowed under the Senior Credit Facility may, at our election, bear interest at various
35
fixed rate options for periods of up to twelve months. Such rates are generally less than the prime rate. We may also elect to borrow at the prime rate. The Senior Credit Facility currently provides for an annual facility fee of $2.3 million that is payable quarterly in arrears.
As of June 30, 2006, there were no borrowings under the Senior Credit Facility. The available capacity under the Senior Credit Facility as of June 30, 2006, net of $287 million of outstanding letters of credit and $1.4 billion of outstanding commercial paper, was approximately $788 million.
The Senior Credit Facility contains only one material financial covenant. This covenant requires Devon to maintain a ratio of total funded debt to total capitalization of no more than 65%. The credit agreement contains definitions of total funded debt and total capitalization that include adjustments to the respective amounts reported in Devon’s consolidated financial statements. Per the agreement, total funded debt excludes the debentures that are exchangeable into shares of Chevron Corporation common stock. Also, total capitalization is adjusted to add back noncash financial writedowns such as full cost ceiling property impairments or goodwill impairments. As of June 30, 2006, Devon’s ratio as calculated pursuant to this covenant was 29.3%.
Our access to funds from the Senior Credit Facility is not restricted under any “material adverse effect” clauses. It is not uncommon for credit agreements to include such clauses. These clauses can remove the obligation of the banks to fund the credit line if any condition or event would reasonably be expected to have a material and adverse effect on the borrower’s financial condition, operations, properties or business considered as a whole, the borrower’s ability to make timely debt payments, or the enforceability of material terms of the credit agreement. While our Senior Credit Facility includes covenants that require Devon to report a condition or event having a material adverse effect on Devon, the obligation of the banks to fund the Senior Credit Facility is not conditioned on the absence of a material adverse effect.
We also have access to short-term credit under our commercial paper program. Total borrowings under the commercial paper program may not exceed $2.0 billion. Also, any borrowings under the commercial paper program reduce available capacity under the Senior Credit Facility on a dollar-for-dollar basis. Commercial paper debt generally has a maturity of between seven to 90 days, although it can have a maturity of up to 365 days.
We used approximately $1.4 billion of borrowings under our commercial paper program to fund a portion of the Chief acquisition which closed on June 29, 2006.
Common Stock Repurchase Program
On August 3, 2005, we announced that our board of directors had authorized the repurchase of up to 50 million shares of our common stock. As of August 3, 2006, we had repurchased 6.5 million shares under this program for $387 million, or $59.80 per share. As a result of the Chief acquisition, this repurchase program has been suspended and will be reevaluated at a later date.
Impact of Recently Issued Accounting Standards Not Yet Adopted
In June 2006, the FASB issued FASB Interpretation Number 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes—an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109.” This Interpretation clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an enterprise’s financial statements in accordance with FASB Statement No. 109, “Accounting for Income Taxes.” This Interpretation is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006. We are currently assessing the effect of this Interpretation on our financial statements.
