Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

Plan Administrator

Devon Energy Corporation Incentive Savings Plan

We have audited the accompanying statements of net assets available for benefits of Devon Energy Corporation Incentive Savings Plan as of December 31, 2011 and 2010, and the related statement of changes in net assets available for benefits for the year ended December 31, 2011. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Plan’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Plan is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Plan’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the net assets available for benefits of Devon Energy Corporation Incentive Savings Plan as of December 31, 2011 and 2010, and the changes in net assets available for benefits for the year ended December 31, 2011 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Our audits were conducted for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic financial statements taken as a whole. The supplemental schedule of assets (held at end of year) as of December 31, 2011 is presented for the purpose of additional analysis and is not a required part of the basic financial statements but is supplemental information required by the Department of Labor’s Rules and Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974. The supplemental schedule is the responsibility of the Plan’s management. The supplemental schedule has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audits of the basic financial statements and, in our opinion, is fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole.

DEVON ENERGY CORPORATION INCENTIVE SAVINGS PLAN

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

1. Description of Plan

The following description of the Devon Energy Corporation Incentive Savings Plan (the Plan) is provided for general information purposes only. Participants should refer to the plan agreement and respective amendments for a more complete description of the Plan’s provisions.

General

The Plan is a multiple employer defined contribution plan covering substantially all United States employees of each of Devon Energy Corporation (Devon) and Thunder Creek Gas Services, LLC and is subject to the provisions of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended (ERISA). Employees are eligible to participate in the Plan as soon as administratively possible following the completion of one hour of service. There is no minimum age requirement for the employees to be eligible.

Fidelity Management Trust Company (the Trustee) is the Trustee of the Plan.

The plan administrator is a committee (Benefits Committee) of employees of Devon appointed by, and serving at the direction of Devon. The Benefits Committee has the sole responsibility for the administration of the Plan, except with respect to duties related to the selection and monitoring of investment options in the Plan. The selection and monitoring of investment options, along with related functions, is the responsibility of a separate committee (Investments Committee) of employees that is also appointed by, and serving at the direction of Devon. Devon’s Board of Directors, or a committee thereof, has the sole responsibility for appointing and removing the Trustee of the Plan. Under the terms of an agreement between the Trustee and the Plan, the Trustee administers the trust for the Plan, including receiving, investing and holding plan assets and paying benefits to participants in accordance with instructions from the plan administrator.

Contributions

As defined in the Plan, participants elect to contribute from 1% to 50% of their compensation to the Plan subject to limitations under the Internal Revenue Code (IRC). Amounts contributed are excluded from the participant’s taxable income for the year of contribution. Participants who have attained age 50 before the end of the Plan year are eligible to make catch-up contributions. Participants may also contribute amounts representing distributions from other qualified defined benefit or defined contribution plans (Rollover Contributions). Participant Rollover Contributions were approximately $1,921,000 for the year ended December 31, 2011.

Participants may receive an employer match on their contribution to the Plan in an amount determined annually by Devon. The amount of the matching contribution may vary according to the participant’s years of service and whether the participant is eligible for enhanced contributions. Participants employed subsequent to October 1, 2007 and participants who opted out of a separate defined benefit plan sponsored by Devon are eligible for enhanced contributions. For the year ended December 31, 2011, for all participants with at least five years of service, Devon contributed amounts equal to 100% of each participant’s contributions to the Plan, with the matching contribution being limited to the lesser of 6% of the participant’s compensation, or $14,700. For participants with less than five years of service, Devon’s matching contribution was limited to the lesser of 3% of the participant’s compensation, or $7,350 (except that participants who were employed prior to October 1, 2007 and elected to continue to participate in a separate defined benefit plan were not eligible for enhanced contributions and received the higher matching contribution described in the preceding sentence even if they had less than five years of service).

Participants eligible for enhanced contributions also receive additional, nondiscretionary contributions by Devon calculated as a percentage of their compensation, as defined in the Plan. In 2011, the enhanced contribution percentage ranged from 8% to 16%, depending upon a participant’s years of service.

Participant Accounts

Each participant’s account is credited with the participant’s contribution, Devon’s contribution and allocations of earnings or losses on the investments selected by the participant, and charged with an allocation of administrative

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS – CONTINUED

expenses. Allocations are based on participant earnings on account balances, as defined. The benefit to which a participant is entitled is the benefit that can be provided from the participant’s vested account.

Investments

Participants direct their account balances to be invested in a number of investment options. Participants may change their investment options on a daily basis. Investment options of the Plan as of December 31, 2011 consist of mutual funds, equity securities, Devon common stock, money market funds, collective trust funds, stable value fund and Brokerage Link. Brokerage Link is a self-directed brokerage account that allows participants to invest in a wide variety of funds.

Vesting

Participants are vested immediately in their contributions, plus actual earnings or losses thereon. For each year of service up to four years, participants become 25% vested in employer contributions to their account and the earnings or losses generated thereon. Participants will become vested upon a change of control of Devon, as defined in the Plan, or if the participant dies, becomes totally disabled or reaches age 65 while employed by Devon or another participating employer.

Notes Receivable from Participants

Participants may borrow from their fund accounts up to 50% of their vested balance, but such loan may not be less than $1,000 or greater than $50,000. Participants may not have more than two loans outstanding at any time. The loans are secured by the balance in the participants’ accounts. The loans bear interest at a fixed rate, which approximates the rate generally charged for consumer loans secured by certificates of deposit or marketable securities. The interest rates ranged from 4.25% to 9.75% at December 31, 2011. The terms of the loans may not exceed five years, except for loans used to purchase a primary residence, in which case the loan term generally will not exceed 15 years. Maturity dates ranged from January 2012 to May 2021 at December 31, 2011. Principal and interest is repaid through biweekly payroll deductions from the participants’ wages.

Payment of Benefits

While still employed, Participants who are age 59 1/2 or older may withdraw all or part of the vested interest in their account at any time. Participants who are still employed also may withdraw their Rollover Contributions regardless of age. In addition, Participants who are still employed and who have taken all other withdrawals and loans available under the Plan may also request a withdrawal in an amount necessary to satisfy an immediate and heavy financial need.

On termination of service due to death, disability or upon retirement, participants (or a beneficiary in the case of death) may elect to receive either a lump-sum amount equal to the value of the participant’s vested interest in his or her account or equal installments (monthly, quarterly, semi-annually or annually) for any period less than the life expectancy of the participant and his or her beneficiary. For termination of service for other reasons, participants may receive the value of the vested interest in their account as a lump-sum distribution. Depending on the value of the participant’s vested interest in his or her account at the time of his or her termination of service, the value of the participant’s vested interest may be automatically paid in a lump-sum distribution, paid in a direct rollover or automatically rolled over to an individual retirement account or annuity established in the participant’s (or beneficiary’s) name.

Forfeited Accounts

Upon termination of employment of participants who are not fully vested in Devon’s contributions, the nonvested portion is forfeited and used to reduce Devon’s future contributions. Employer contributions were reduced by $727,000 in 2011. As of December 31, 2011 and 2010, there were approximately $1,515,000 and $1,098,000, respectively, of forfeitures available to reduce future employer contributions.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

The following are the significant accounting policies followed by the Plan in preparing the accompanying financial statements:

Basis of Presentation

The financial statements have been prepared on the accrual basis of accounting in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires Devon’s management and the plan administrator to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities and changes therein, and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Investment Valuation and Income Recognition

The Plan’s investments are stated at fair value. Fair value represents the price that would be received to sell the investment in an orderly transaction between market participants. This price is commonly referred to as the “exit price.” Fair value measurements are classified according to a hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs underlying the valuation techniques. This hierarchy consists of three broad levels:

 

   

Level 1 – Inputs consist of unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and have the highest priority. When available, Level 1 inputs are used to measure fair value because they generally provide the most reliable evidence of fair value.

 

   

Level 2 – Inputs consist of quoted prices that are generally observable for the asset. Common examples of Level 2 inputs include quoted prices for similar assets in active markets or quoted prices for identical assets in markets not considered to be active.

 

   

Level 3 – Inputs are not observable from objective sources and have the lowest priority. The most common Level 3 fair value measurement is an internally developed cash flow model.

Realized gains or losses are calculated based on proceeds from the sale of investments and the fair value of the investments at the beginning of the plan year or at time of purchase if acquired during the current plan year. Unrealized appreciation or depreciation of the investments is calculated based on the fair value of the investments at the end of the plan year and the fair value of the investments at the beginning of the plan year or at time of purchase if acquired during the current plan year. Purchases and sales of securities are recorded on a trade-date basis. Interest income is recorded on the accrual basis. Dividends are recorded on the ex-dividend date.

Investment contracts held by a defined-contribution plan are required to be reported at fair value. However, contract value is the relevant measurement attribute for that portion of the net assets available for benefits of a defined-contribution plan attributable to fully benefit-responsive investment contracts because contract value is the amount participants would receive if they were to initiate permitted transactions under the terms of the plan. The Statements of Net Assets Available for Benefits presents the fair value of the investment contracts as well as the adjustment of the fully benefit-responsive investment contracts from fair value to contract value. The Statement of Changes in Net Assets Available for Benefits is prepared on a contract value basis.

Notes Receivable From Participants

Notes receivable from participants are measured at their unpaid principal balance plus any accrued but unpaid interest. Delinquent participant loans are reclassified as distributions based upon the terms of the plan document.

Payment of Benefits

Benefits are recorded when paid.

Administrative

Trustee, audit and certain other administrative fees for 2011 were paid by Devon on behalf of the Plan.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements Adopted

In May 2011, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2011-04, Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements in U.S. GAAP and IFRS. This update changes certain fair value measurement principles and enhances the disclosure requirements particularly for level 3 fair value measurements. This update is effective for the Plan prospectively for the year ending December 31, 2012. The Plan does not expect the adoption of this update will materially impact its financial statements.

  (1) Investment fund seeks results that correspond generally to the price and yield performance, before fees and expenses, of the Russell 3000 Index. This fund allows for daily redemptions with no unfunded commitments.
  (2) Investment fund seeks preservation of principal and to earn current income while tracking interest rates over the intermediate term by investing in a diversified portfolio of stable value contracts, including wrap contracts issued by insurance companies, banks, and other financial institutions. This fund allows for daily redemptions with no unfunded commitments.
  (3) Investment fund seeks results that correspond generally to the price and yield performance, before fees and expenses, of the MSCI ACWI ex-U.S. IMI Index. This fund allows for daily redemptions with no unfunded commitments.
  (4) Investment fund seeks results through active management that correspond generally to the price and yield performance, after fees and expenses, of the FTSE NAREIT Equity REITS Index. This fund allows for daily redemptions with no unfunded commitments.
  (5) Investment fund sought to provide long-term growth of capital by primarily investing in a diversified portfolio of large and medium-sized US companies and sought to outperform its benchmark, the S&P 500 Index, within defined risk and return parameters. This fund allowed for daily redemptions.
  (6) Investment fund sought to provide long-term growth of capital by investing in the stocks of large companies based outside of the United States. This fund allowed for daily redemptions.

The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair values in the tables above.

Level 1 Fair Value Measurements

Amounts consist of mutual funds, equity securities and money market funds that are actively traded and can be redeemed upon demand. The fair values of these instruments are based upon quoted market prices.

 

10


DEVON ENERGY CORPORATION INCENTIVE SAVINGS PLAN

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS – CONTINUED

Level 2 Fair Value Measurements

Amounts consist of collective trust funds. These funds can be redeemed upon demand. The fair values are based upon the net asset values provided by investment managers.

The methods described above may produce a fair value calculation that may not be indicative of net realizable value or reflective of future fair values. Furthermore, although these valuation methods are appropriate and consistent with other market participants, the use of different methodologies or assumptions to determine the fair value of certain financial instruments could result in a different estimate of fair value at the reporting date.

 

4. Stable Value Fund

The SEI Stable Asset Fund (the “Fund”) is a collective trust fund sponsored by SEI Trust Company. The beneficial interest of each participant is represented by units. Units are issued and redeemed daily at the Fund’s constant NAV of $1 per unit. Distribution to the Fund’s unit holders are declared daily from the net investment income and automatically reinvested in the Fund on a monthly basis. It is the policy of the Fund to use its best efforts to maintain a stable net asset value of $1 per unit, but there is no guarantee that the Fund will be able to maintain this value.

Participants may direct the withdrawal or transfer of all or a portion of their investment in the Fund at contract value. Contract value represents contributions made to the Fund, plus earnings, less participant withdrawals and administrative expenses. The Fund imposes certain restrictions on the Plan, and the Fund itself may be subject to circumstances that impact its ability to transact at contract value. Plan management believes that the occurrence of events that would cause the Fund to transact at less than contract value is not probable.

 

5. Plan Termination

Although Devon has not expressed any intent to terminate the Plan, it may do so at any time. Benefits owed to participants are not actuarially determined and the aggregate vested benefits are limited to the Plan’s net assets available for plan benefits. In the event of termination, participants will become 100% vested in their accounts.

 

6. Plan Investment Assets

Following is a schedule of the Plan’s investments that exceed 5% of the Plan’s net assets at December 31, 2011 and 2010, and the fair value of such investments:

DEVON ENERGY CORPORATION INCENTIVE SAVINGS PLAN

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS – CONTINUED

 

7. Related Party Transactions

The Trustee and Devon are parties in interest as defined by ERISA. Certain plan investments are shares of mutual funds managed by Fidelity Management & Research Company, which is an affiliate of the Trustee. The Trustee also invests certain Plan assets in the Devon Stock Fund. Such transactions qualify as party-in-interest transactions permitted by the Department of Labor regulations.

 

8. Tax Status

The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) has determined and informed Devon by a letter dated April 16, 2010, that the Plan and related trusts are designed in accordance with applicable sections of the Internal Revenue Code (IRC). Prior to April 16, 2010, the Plan operated under a determination letter dated August 1, 2002. Although the Plan has been amended since receiving the determination letter, the plan administrator believes that the Plan is designed and is currently being operated in compliance with the applicable provisions of the IRC.

Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America require plan management to evaluate tax positions taken by the Plan and recognize a tax liability (or asset) if the Plan has taken an uncertain position that more likely than not would not be sustained upon examination by the IRS. The plan administrator has analyzed the tax positions taken by the Plan, and has concluded that as of December 31, 2011, there are no uncertain positions taken or expected to be taken that would require recognition of a liability (or asset) or disclosure in the financial statements. The Plan is subject to routine audits by taxing jurisdictions. There are currently routine IRS audits for the tax periods of 2008 and 2009 in progress. The plan administrator believes it is no longer subject to income tax examinations for years prior to 2008. The plan administrator has responded to IRS requests for information in a timely manner and the IRS has made no adverse findings regarding the operation of the Plan.

 

9. Risk and Uncertainties

In general, the investments provided by the Plan are exposed to various risks, such as interest rate, credit and overall market volatility risks. Because of the risks associated with investment securities, it is reasonably possible that changes in the values of investment securities will occur in the near term and that such change could materially affect participants’ account balances and the amounts reported in the statements of net assets available for benefits.

 

10. Reconciliation of Financial Statement to Form 5500
