Forward-Looking Estimates
     The forward-looking statements provided in this discussion are based on management’s examination of historical operating trends, the information which was used to prepare the December 31, 2005 Devon reserve reports and other data in Devon’s possession or available from third parties. Devon cautions that its future oil, natural gas and NGL production, revenues and expenses are subject to all of the risks and uncertainties normally incident to the exploration for and development, production and sale of oil, gas and NGLs. These risks include, but are not limited to, price volatility, inflation or lack of availability of goods and services, environmental risks, drilling risks, regulatory changes, the uncertainty inherent in estimating future oil and gas production or reserves, and other risks as outlined below.
     Additionally, Devon cautions that its future marketing and midstream revenues and expenses are subject to all of the risks and uncertainties normally incident to the marketing and midstream business. These risks include, but are not limited to, price volatility, environmental risks, regulatory changes, the uncertainty inherent in estimating future processing volumes and pipeline throughput, cost of goods and services and other risks as outlined below.
     Though Devon has completed several major property acquisitions and dispositions in recent years, these transactions are opportunity driven. Thus, the following forward-looking estimates do not include any financial and operating effects of potential property acquisitions or divestitures which may occur during the remainder of 2006.
     Also, the financial results of Devon’s foreign operations are subject to currency exchange rate risks. Unless otherwise noted, all of the following dollar amounts are expressed in U.S. dollars. Amounts related to Canadian operations have been converted to U.S. dollars using a projected average 2006 exchange rate of $0.88 U.S. dollar to $1.00 Canadian dollar. The actual 2006 exchange rate may vary materially from this estimate. Such variations could have a material effect on these forward-looking estimates.
     Additional risks are discussed below in the context of line items most affected by such risks. A summary of these forward-looking estimates is included at the end of this document.
     Specific Assumptions and Risks Related to Price and Production Estimates Prices for oil, natural gas and NGLs are determined primarily by prevailing market conditions. Market conditions for these products are influenced by regional and worldwide economic conditions, weather and other local market conditions. These factors are beyond Devon’s control and are difficult to predict. In addition to volatility in general, oil, gas and NGL prices may vary considerably due to differences between regional markets, differing quality of oil produced (i.e., sweet crude versus heavy or sour crude), differing Btu contents of gas produced, transportation availability and costs and demand for the various products derived from oil, natural gas and NGLs. Substantially all of Devon’s revenues are attributable to sales, processing and transportation of these three commodities. Consequently, Devon’s financial results and resources are highly influenced by price volatility.
     Estimates for future production of oil, natural gas and NGLs are based on the assumption that market demand and prices for oil, gas and NGLs will continue at levels that allow for profitable production of these products. There can be no assurance of such stability. Most of Devon’s Canadian production of oil, natural gas and NGLs is subject to government royalties that fluctuate with prices. Thus, price fluctuations can affect reported production. Also, Devon’s international production of oil and natural gas is governed by payout agreements with the governments of the

3


Table of Contents

countries in which Devon operates. If the payout under these agreements is attained earlier than projected, Devon’s net production and proved reserves in such areas could be reduced.
     Estimates for future processing and transport of oil, natural gas and NGLs are based on the assumption that market demand and prices for oil, gas and NGLs will continue at levels that allow for profitable processing and transport of these products. There can be no assurance of such stability.
     The production, transportation, processing and marketing of oil, natural gas and NGLs are complex processes which are subject to disruption due to transportation and processing availability, mechanical failure, human error, meteorological events including, but not limited to, hurricanes, and numerous other factors. The following forward-looking statements were prepared assuming demand, curtailment, productibility and general market conditions for Devon’s oil, natural gas and NGLs during 2006 will be substantially similar to those of 2005, unless otherwise noted.
Geographic Reporting Areas for 2006
     The following estimates of production, average price differentials compared to industry benchmarks and capital expenditures are provided separately for each of the following geographic areas:
    the United States Onshore;
 
    the United States Offshore, which encompasses all oil and gas properties in the Gulf of Mexico;
 
    Canada; and
 
    International, which encompasses all oil and gas properties that lie outside of the United States and Canada.
Year 2006 Potential Operating Items
     Oil, Gas and NGL Production Set forth in the following paragraphs are individual estimates of oil, gas and NGL production for 2006. Devon’s most recent estimate of 2006 production, on a combined basis, was 217 MMBoe. As a result of various contractual and operational developments, Devon is increasing this estimate by one MMBoe. The most significant development contributing to this upward revision is that Devon now expects to reach payout under the production sharing contract governing its interest in the Azeri-Chirag-Gunashli oil development project within the next six months, resulting in an increase to 2006 production. Therefore, Devon now estimates, on a combined basis, that its 2006 oil, gas, and NGL production will total approximately 218 MMBoe.

     Oil Prices Devon has not fixed the price it will receive on any of its 2006 oil production. Devon’s 2006 average prices for each of its areas are expected to differ from the NYMEX price as set forth in the following table. The NYMEX price is the monthly average of settled prices on each trading day for benchmark West Texas Intermediate crude oil delivered at Cushing, Oklahoma.

     Gas Prices Devon’s 2006 average prices for each of its areas are expected to differ from the NYMEX price as set forth in the following table. The NYMEX price is determined to be the first-of-month South Louisiana Henry Hub price index as published monthly in Inside FERC.
     During the first half of 2006, Devon had approximately 51 MMcf per day of gas production that was subject to fixed-price contracts. During the last half of 2006, Devon will have approximately 88 MMcf per day of gas production that is subject to either fixed-price contracts, swaps, floors or collars. These amounts represent approximately 3% of Devon’s estimated gas production for 2006. Therefore, these various pricing arrangements are not expected to have a material impact on the ranges of estimated gas price realizations set forth in the following table.
         
    Expected Range of Gas Prices

     Marketing and Midstream Revenues and Expenses Marketing and midstream revenues and expenses are derived primarily from its natural gas processing plants and natural gas transport pipelines. These revenues and expenses vary in response to several factors. The factors include, but are not limited to, changes in production from wells connected to the pipelines and related processing plants, changes in the absolute and relative prices of natural gas and NGLs, provisions of the contract agreements and the amount of repair and workover activity required to maintain anticipated processing levels.
     These factors, coupled with uncertainty of future natural gas and NGL prices, increase the uncertainty inherent in estimating future marketing and midstream revenues and expenses. Devon’s most recent estimate for marketing and midstream revenues was between $1.74 billion and $2.20 billion, and the most recent estimate for marketing and midstream expenses was between $1.38 billion and $1.80 billion. Due to higher estimates for absolute and relative NGL prices, Devon now estimates that its marketing and midstream revenues will be between $1.77 billion and $2.00 billion, and marketing and midstream expenses will be between $1.35 billion and $1.56 billion.
     Production and Operating Expenses Devon’s production and operating expenses include lease operating expenses, transportation costs and production taxes. These expenses vary in response to several factors. Among the most significant of these factors are additions to or deletions from the property base, changes in the general price level of services and materials that are used in the operation of the properties, the amount of repair and workover activity required and changes in production tax rates. Oil, natural gas and NGL prices also have an effect on lease operating expenses and impact the economic feasibility of planned workover projects. Given these uncertainties, Devon estimates that 2006 lease operating expenses (including transportation costs) will be between $1.44 billion and $1.51 billion.
     Devon’s most recent estimate for production taxes was between 3.25% and 3.75% of consolidated oil, natural gas and NGL revenues. Effective March 26, 2006, oil revenues in China are subject to a new “Special Petroleum Gain” tax based on higher oil prices. As a result of the effect of this new tax, Devon now estimates its production taxes for 2006 to be between 3.6% and 4.0% of consolidated oil, natural gas and NGL revenues.
     Depreciation, Depletion and Amortization (“DD&A”) The 2006 oil and gas property DD&A rate will depend on various factors. Most notable among such factors are the amount of proved reserves that will be added from drilling or acquisition efforts in 2006 compared to the costs incurred for such efforts, and the revisions to Devon’s year-end 2005 reserve estimates that, based on prior experience, are likely to be made during 2006.
     Devon’s most recent estimate for its oil and gas property related DD&A rate was between $9.90 per Boe and $10.30 per Boe. Based on these DD&A rates and the production estimates set forth at that time, oil and gas property related DD&A expense for 2006 was expected to be between $2.145 billion and $2.230 billion. Due to continued weakening of the U.S. dollar

6


Table of Contents

compared to the Canadian dollar and continuing inflationary pressures on both costs incurred and estimated development costs to be spent in future periods on proved undeveloped reserves, Devon now estimates that its oil and gas property related DD&A rate will be between $10.30 per Boe and $10.70 per Boe. Based on these DD&A rates and the updated production estimates, oil and gas property related DD&A expense for 2006 is expected to be between $2.25 billion and $2.33 billion.
     Additionally, Devon expects its depreciation and amortization expense related to non-oil and gas property fixed assets to total between $170 million and $180 million.
     Accretion of Asset Retirement Obligation The 2006 accretion of asset retirement obligation is expected to be between $48 million and $53 million.
     General and Administrative Expenses (“G&A”) Devon’s G&A includes employee compensation and benefits costs and the costs of many different goods and services used in support of its business. G&A varies with the level of Devon’s operating activities and the related staffing and professional services requirements. In addition, employee compensation and benefits costs vary due to various market factors that affect the level and type of compensation and benefits offered to employees. Also, goods and services are subject to general price level increases or decreases. Therefore, significant variances in any of these factors from current expectations could cause actual G&A to vary materially from the estimate.
     Given these limitations, consolidated G&A in 2006 is expected to be between $370 million and $390 million. This estimate includes $35 million of expenses related to restricted stock compensation costs, net of related capitalization in accordance with the full cost method of accounting for oil and gas properties. This estimate also includes $35 million of expenses related to stock option compensation costs, net of related capitalization. Stock option costs are being expensed beginning January 1, 2006.
     Reduction of Carrying Value of Oil and Gas Properties Devon follows the full cost method of accounting for its oil and gas properties. Under the full cost method, Devon’s net book value of oil and gas properties, less related deferred income taxes (the “costs to be recovered”), may not exceed a calculated “full cost ceiling.” The ceiling limitation is the discounted estimated after-tax future net revenues from oil and gas properties plus the cost of properties not subject to amortization. The ceiling is imposed separately by country. In calculating future net revenues, current prices and costs used are those as of the end of the appropriate quarterly period. These prices are not changed except where different prices are fixed and determinable from applicable contracts for the remaining term of those contracts. Such contracts include derivatives accounted for as cash flow hedges. The costs to be recovered are compared to the ceiling on a quarterly basis. If the costs to be recovered exceed the ceiling, the excess is written off as an expense. An expense recorded in one period may not be reversed in a subsequent period even though higher oil and gas prices may have increased the ceiling applicable to the subsequent period.
     Because the ceiling calculation dictates that prices in effect as of the last day of the applicable quarter are held constant indefinitely, and requires a 10% discount factor, the resulting value is not indicative of the true fair value of the reserves. Oil and natural gas prices have historically been cyclical and, on any particular day at the end of a quarter, can be either substantially higher or lower than Devon’s long-term price forecast that is a barometer for true fair value. Therefore, oil and gas property writedowns that result from applying the full cost ceiling limitation, and that are caused by fluctuations in price as opposed to reductions to the underlying quantities of

reserves, should not be viewed as absolute indicators of a reduction of the ultimate value of the related reserves.
     During the first half of 2006, we reduced the carrying value of our Nigerian and Brazilian oil and gas properties by $85 million and $16 million, respectively, due to unsuccessful exploratory drilling results. It is not possible to predict whether Devon will incur other reductions in carrying value in future periods.
     Interest Expense Future interest rates and debt outstanding have a significant effect on Devon’s interest expense. Devon can only marginally influence the prices it will receive in 2006 from sales of oil, natural gas and NGLs and the resulting cash flow. These factors increase the margin of error inherent in estimating future interest expense. Other factors which affect interest expense, such as the amount and timing of capital expenditures, are within Devon’s control.
     Devon’s most recent estimate of its 2006 interest expense (net of amounts capitalized) was between $430 million and $440 million. Devon has determined that these estimates should be increased due to increases in prevailing floating interest rates. Therefore, 2006 interest expense is now estimated to be between $435 million and $445 million.
     The interest expense in 2006 related to Devon’s fixed-rate debt, including net accretion of related discounts, will be approximately $410 million. This fixed-rate debt removes the uncertainty of future interest rates from some, but not all, of Devon’s long-term debt. Devon’s floating rate debt is discussed in the following paragraphs.
     Devon used variable-rate commercial paper to fund a portion of the Chief acquisition. Also, Devon has various debt instruments which have been converted to floating rate debt through the use of interest rate swaps. Devon’s floating rate debt is as follows:
             
    Notional    
Debt Instrument   Amount   Floating Rate
    (In millions)    
Commercial Paper
  $ 1,426 1   Various 2
2.75% notes due in August 2006
  $ 500     LIBOR less 26.8 basis points
6.55% senior notes due in August 2006
  $ 179 3   Banker’s Acceptance plus 340 basis points
4.375% senior notes due in Oct 2007
  $ 400     LIBOR plus 40 basis points
 
1   Represents outstanding balance as of June 30, 2006.
 
2   The interest rate is based on a standard index such as the Federal Funds Rate, LIBOR, or the money market rate as found on the commercial paper market. As of June 30, 2006, the average rate on the outstanding balance was 5.45%.
 
3   Converted from $200 million Canadian dollars at a Canadian-to-U.S. dollar exchange rate of $0.8969 as of June 30, 2006.
     Devon’s most recent estimate for interest expense on its floating rate debt was between $80 million and $90 million. Based on future LIBOR rates as of June 30, 2006, interest expense on floating rate debt, including net amortization of premiums, is now expected to total between $85 million and $95 million in 2006.
     Devon’s interest expense totals include payments of facility and agency fees, amortization of debt issuance costs, the effect of interest rate swaps not accounted for as hedges, and other miscellaneous items not related to the debt balances outstanding. Devon expects between $5 million and $15 million of such items to be included in its 2006 interest expense. Also, Devon expects to capitalize between $65 million and $75 million of interest during 2006.

Table of Contents

     Effects of Changes in Foreign Currency Rates Foreign currency gains or losses are not expected to be material in 2006.
     Other Revenues Devon’s most recent estimate for other revenues in 2006 was between $135 million and $155 million. This estimate included $50 million to $70 million for a portion of anticipated insurance proceeds in excess of related costs. Due to the factors discussed below regarding Devon’s insurance program, Devon believes it is possible that the ultimate amount of such excess insurance recoveries will not be recordable as other revenues until 2007. Therefore, Devon now estimates that its other revenues in 2006 will be between $80 million and $100 million.
     Devon maintains a comprehensive insurance program that includes coverage for physical damage to its offshore facilities caused by hurricanes. Its 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. During the third quarter of 2006, Devon collected $467 million as a full settlement with its primary insurers. Devon is not immediately recording this amount as other revenues due to uncertainties surrounding future costs to be incurred and future reimbursements to be received from its secondary insurers. 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. However, Devon believes it is possible that the ultimate amount of such excess will not be known until 2007. Therefore, Devon expects such excess will not be recordable as other revenues until 2007.
     Income Taxes Devon’s financial income tax rate in 2006 will vary materially depending on the actual amount of financial pre-tax earnings. The tax rate for 2006 will be significantly affected by the proportional share of consolidated pre-tax earnings generated by U.S., Canadian and International operations due to the different tax rates of each country. There are certain tax deductions and credits that will have a fixed impact on 2006 income tax expense regardless of the level of pre-tax earnings that are produced.
     Given the uncertainty of pre-tax earnings, Devon expects that its consolidated financial income tax rate in 2006 will be between 25% and 45%. The current income tax rate is expected to be between 20% and 30%. The deferred income tax rate is expected to be between 5% and 15%. Significant changes in estimated capital expenditures, production levels of oil, gas and NGLs, the prices of such products, marketing and midstream revenues, or any of the various expense items could materially alter the effect of the aforementioned tax deductions and credits on 2006 financial income tax rates.
Year 2006 Potential Capital Sources, Uses and Liquidity
     Capital Expenditures Though Devon has completed several major property acquisitions in recent years, these transactions are opportunity driven. Thus, Devon does not “budget,” nor can it reasonably predict, the timing or size of such possible acquisitions.
     Devon’s capital expenditures budget is based on an expected range of future oil, natural gas and NGL prices as well as the expected costs of the capital additions. Should actual prices

Table of Contents

received differ materially from Devon’s price expectations for its future production, some projects may be accelerated or deferred and, consequently, may increase or decrease total 2006 capital expenditures. In addition, if the actual material or labor costs of the budgeted items vary significantly from the anticipated amounts, actual capital expenditures could vary materially from Devon’s estimates.
     Given the limitations discussed, the company expects its 2006 capital expenditures for drilling and development efforts, plus related facilities, to total between $4.745 billion and $4.940 billion. These amounts include between $1.375 billion and $1.435 billion for drilling and facilities costs related to reserves classified as proved as of year-end 2005. In addition, these amounts include between $2.280 billion and $2.375 billion for other production capital and between $1.090 billion and $1.130 billion for exploration capital. Other production capital includes development drilling that does not offset currently productive units and for which there is not a certainty of continued production from a known productive formation. Exploration capital includes exploratory drilling to find and produce oil or gas in previously untested fault blocks or new reservoirs.
     The following table shows expected drilling, development and facilities expenditures by geographic area. These amounts do not include the $2.2 billion Chief acquisition.

     In addition to the above expenditures for drilling, development and facilities, Devon expects to spend between $330 million to $380 million on its marketing and midstream assets, which include its oil pipelines, gas processing plants, CO2 removal facilities and gas transport pipelines. Devon also expects to capitalize between $235 million and $245 million of G&A expenses in accordance with the full cost method of accounting and to capitalize between $65 million and $75 million of interest. Devon also expects to pay between $35 million and $45 million for plugging and abandonment charges, and to spend between $170 million and $180 million for other non-oil and gas property fixed assets.
     Other Cash Uses Devon’s management expects the policy of paying a quarterly common stock dividend to continue. With the current $0.1125 per share quarterly dividend rate and 441 million shares of common stock outstanding as of June 30, 2006, dividends are expected to approximate $198 million. Also, Devon has $150 million of 6.49% cumulative preferred stock upon which it will pay $10 million of dividends in 2006.
     On August 3, 2005, Devon announced its intention to buy back up to 50 million shares of its common stock. As of August 2, 2006, Devon had repurchased 6.5 million shares under the program for $387 million. As a result of the Chief acquisition, this repurchase program has been suspended and will be reevaluated later in 2006.

Table of Contents

     Capital Resources and Liquidity Devon’s estimated 2006 cash uses, including its drilling and development activities and repurchase of common stock, are expected to be funded primarily through a combination of working capital (which totaled $1.3 billion at the end of 2005) and operating cash flow. In addition, Devon utilized approximately $718 million of cash and approximately $1.4 billion of borrowings under its commercial paper program to fund the Chief acquisition price. Any remaining cash uses could be funded with borrowings from the available capacity under Devon’s credit facility, which was $788 million at June 30, 2006. The amount of operating cash flow to be generated during 2006 is uncertain due to the factors affecting revenues and expenses as previously cited. However, Devon expects its combined capital resources to be more than adequate to fund its anticipated capital expenditures and other cash uses for 2006.
     If significant other acquisitions or other unplanned capital requirements arise during the year, Devon could utilize its existing credit facility and/or seek to establish and utilize other sources of financing.
