Devon Energy Corp. DVN today reported operational and financial results for the second quarter of 2016 and provided guidance for the third quarter and full-year 2016.
Highlights
- Exceeded production expectations in U.S. resource plays
- Raised 2016 production guidance for retained assets by 3 percent
- Reduced lease operating expenses 26 percent year over year
- Improved operating and G&A expense outlook
- Completed asset divestiture program with proceeds totaling $3.2 billion
- Increased E&P capital investment by $200 million in 2016
"Devon Energy's strategy of operating in North America's best resource plays, coupled with a focus on delivering best-in-class execution, led to another quarter of excellent operational results," said Dave Hager, president and CEO. "Production from our U.S. resource plays once again exceeded guidance expectations and we were able to deliver this outperformance with dramatically lower costs. With the cost savings achieved year to date, we are now on pace to reduce operating and G&A expenses by nearly $1 billion in 2016.
"In addition to our strong operating performance, we were able to significantly improve our financial strength over the past several months with the timely completion of our non-core asset divestiture program," Hager said. "Total divestitures reached $3.2 billion and surpassed the top end of our $2 billion to $3 billion guidance range. The majority of the sales proceeds will be utilized to reduce debt and position us to further accelerate investment in our best-in-class U.S. resource plays, led by the STACK and Delaware Basin."
Production Exceeds Expectations in U.S. Resource Plays
Devon's reported net production averaged 644,000 oil-equivalent barrels (Boe) per day during the second quarter of 2016. Of this amount, 545,000 Boe per day was attributable to the Company's core assets, where investment will be directed going forward. Production from core assets exceeded the mid-point of guidance by 6,000 Boe per day, driven entirely by Devon's U.S. resource plays.
Within the Company's U.S. resource plays, production averaged 419,000 Boe per day. This performance was highlighted by strong results from the STACK and Delaware Basin where aggregate production increased 27 percent year over year. Light-oil production from U.S. resource plays, which is Devon's highest margin product, averaged 110,000 barrels per day. This result exceeded the top end of guidance by 2,000 barrels per day.
In Canada, net oil production from Devon's heavy-oil projects averaged 121,000 barrels per day in the second quarter. Driven by the industry-leading performance of the Jackfish 3 facility, Canadian oil production increased 24 percent compared to the second quarter of 2015. Scheduled maintenance at the Company's Jackfish 2 facility curtailed production by 11,000 barrels per day in the quarter.
Retained Midland Assets Enhance 2016 Production Outlook
With the earlier than expected completion of Devon's asset divestiture program, the Company is updating its third quarter and full-year 2016 production expectations for its retained, go-forward asset base. The most significant change to previous guidance is Devon's decision to retain select assets in the Midland Basin that were previously categorized as non-core. These legacy Midland Basin assets have extremely low declines and are expected to produce approximately 15,000 Boe per day in the second half of 2016.
Due to the retention of Midland assets and other minor operating interests, Devon is raising the mid-point of its 2016 production guidance from its retained, go-forward asset base by 18,000 Boe per day, or 3 percent. The largest portion of this production raise is attributable to oil, where 2016 mid-point guidance increased by 4 percent or 10,000 barrels per day.
Lease Operating Expenses Decline 26 Percent; Additional Savings Expected
The Company has several cost-reduction initiatives underway that positively impacted second-quarter results. The most significant operating cost savings came from lease operating expenses (LOE), which is Devon's largest field-level cost. LOE declined 26 percent compared to the second quarter of 2015 to $416 million, and was 5 percent below the low end of guidance. The decrease in LOE was primarily driven by improved power and water-handling infrastructure, declining labor expense and lower supply chain costs.
Due to the operating cost performance achieved year to date and the impact of recently announced asset divestitures, the Company is lowering its full-year 2016 LOE outlook by $150 million to a range of $1.6 billion to $1.7 billion. With this improved outlook, Devon is now on track to reduce LOE and production taxes by nearly $600 million compared to 2015.
G&A Cost Savings Initiatives Ahead of Schedule
Devon also realized substantial general and administrative (G&A) cost savings in the second quarter. G&A expenses totaled $147 million, a 30 percent improvement compared to the second quarter of 2015. The significantly lower overhead costs were driven by reduced personnel expenses.
The Company now anticipates G&A expenses to decline to a range of $600 million to $650 million for the full-year 2016. Combined with reductions in capitalized G&A, Devon projects its total overhead costs to decline by approximately $400 million compared to 2015.
Accelerating Upstream Investment Activity
Devon continued to effectively control capital costs during the second quarter. Devon's accrued upstream capital spending, which accounts for activity that was incurred during the reporting period, amounted to $221 million in the quarter. This result was $29 million below the low end of the Company's guidance range.
As previously announced in June, Devon expects its full-year 2016 upstream capital program to range between $1.1 billion and $1.3 billion, an increase of $200 million from previous guidance. The incremental capital will be deployed in the STACK and Delaware Basin, with the potential to add as many as 7 operated rigs between these prolific plays in the second half of 2016. The additional capital investment is expected to deliver incremental production in early 2017.

Divestiture Program Complete and Exceeds Expectations
In the second quarter of 2016, Devon announced multiple agreements to monetize $2 billion of non-core upstream assets in the U.S. Several of these transactions have closed and the Company expects the remaining transactions to close in the third quarter. The Company expects to incur minimal cash taxes associated with these divestitures.
Subsequent to quarter end, the Company announced an agreement to sell its 50 percent interest in the Access Pipeline for CAD $1.4 billion, or USD $1.1 billion. This transaction is expected to close in the third quarter of 2016. With the announced sale of Access Pipeline, Devon's divestiture program is now complete reaching $3.2 billion, exceeding the top end of the Company's $2 billion to $3 billion guidance range. At least two-thirds of the sales proceeds are expected to be utilized for debt reduction, while the remaining amount will be reinvested in the Company's U.S. resource plays.
Significant Liquidity and Financial Strength
Devon exited the second quarter with $1.7 billion of cash on hand. Pro-forma for the recent asset sales, cash balances will increase to $4.6 billion and the Company had no borrowings on its $3 billion senior credit facility.
The Company's consolidated debt was $12.7 billion at the end of the second quarter. Adjusted for asset sales, Devon's net debt, which excludes non-recourse EnLink obligations, declines to $4.7 billion. The Company's ownership in EnLink is valued at greater than $3 billion and is expected to generate cash distributions of $270 million in 2016.
Cash Inflow Exceeds $800 Million
In the second quarter of 2016 Devon had a reported net loss of $1.6 billion, or $3.04 per share. Adjusting for items that securities analysts typically exclude from their published estimates, Devon's core earnings totaled $33 million, or $0.06 per share.
Adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) reached $649 million in the second quarter of 2016. The closing of the Company's non-core Mississippian assets added approximately $200 million of additional cash flow in the second quarter of 2016, bringing cash inflows to more than $800 million.
Non-GAAP Reconciliations
Pursuant to regulatory disclosure requirements, Devon is required to reconcile non-GAAP (generally accepted accounting principles) financial measures to the related GAAP information.

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES
This press release includes 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 this press release, including reconciliations to their most directly comparable GAAP measure.
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 second-quarter 2016 earnings.

ADJUSTED EBITDA
We define Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP financial measure, as EBITDA adjusted for certain items presented in the accompanying reconciliation. We believe that EBITDA is widely used by investors to measure a company's performance without regard to items such as interest expense, taxes, depreciation and amortization, which can vary substantially from company to company depending upon accounting methods and book value of assets, capital structure and the method by which assets were acquired. In addition, Adjusted EBITDA generally excludes certain other items that management believes affect the comparability of operating results or are not related to Devon's ongoing operations. Management uses Adjusted EBITDA to evaluate the company's operational trends and performance relative to other oil and gas companies.

NET DEBT AND ADJUSTED NET DEBT
Devon defines net debt as debt less cash and cash equivalents and net debt attributable to the consolidation of EnLink Midstream as presented in the following table. Adjusted net debt is net debt further adjusted for the estimated proceeds Devon expects to receive from the asset divestitures that have closed or will close in the third quarter of 2016. Devon believes that netting these sources of cash, including the estimated asset sale proceeds, against debt and adjusting for EnLink net debt provides a clearer picture of the future demands on cash from Devon to repay debt.
