Forward-Looking Statements
This presentation includes "forward-looking statements" as defined by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Such statements are subject to a variety of risks
and uncertainties that could cause actual results or developments to differ materially from those projected in the forward-looking statements. Please refer to the slide
entitled “Forward-Looking Statements” included in this presentation for other important information regarding such statements.
Use of Non-GAAP Information
This presentation may include non-GAAP financial measures. Such 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. For additional disclosure regarding such non-GAAP measures, including
reconciliations to their most directly comparable GAAP measure, please refer to Devon’s most recent earnings release at www.devonenergy.com.
Cautionary Note to Investors
The SEC permits oil and gas companies, in their filings with the SEC, to disclose only proved, probable and possible reserves that meet the SEC's definitions for such terms, and
price and cost sensitivities for such reserves, and prohibits disclosure of resources that do not constitute such reserves. This presentation may contain certain terms, such as
resource potential, risked or unrisked resource, potential locations, risked or unrisked locations, exploration target size and other similar terms. These estimates are by their
nature more speculative than estimates of proved, probable and possible reserves and accordingly are subject to substantially greater risk of being actually realized. The SEC
guidelines strictly prohibit us from including these estimates in filings with the SEC. Investors are urged to consider closely the disclosure in our Form 10-K, available at
www.devonenergy.com. You can also obtain this form from the SEC by calling 1-800-SEC-0330 or from the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov.

This presentation includes "forward-looking statements" as defined by the SEC. Such statements include those concerning strategic plans, expectations and objectives for future
operations, and are often identified by use of the words “expects,” “believes,” “will,” “would,” “could,” “forecasts,” “projections,” “estimates,” “plans,” “expectations,”
“targets,” “opportunities,” “potential,” “anticipates,” “outlook” and other similar terminology. All statements, other than statements of historical facts, included in this
presentation that address activities, events or developments that the Company expects, believes or anticipates will or may occur in the future are forward-looking statements.
Such statements are subject to a number of assumptions, risks and uncertainties, many of which are beyond the control of the Company. Statements regarding our business
and operations are subject to all of the risks and uncertainties normally incident to the exploration for and development and production of oil and gas. These risks include, but
are not limited to: the volatility of oil, gas and NGL prices, including the currently depressed commodity price environment; uncertainties inherent in estimating oil, gas and NGL
reserves; the extent to which we are successful in acquiring and discovering additional reserves; the uncertainties, costs and risks involved in exploration and development
activities; risks related to our hedging activities; counterparty credit risks; regulatory restrictions, compliance costs and other risks relating to governmental regulation, including
with respect to environmental matters; risks relating to our indebtedness; our ability to successfully complete mergers, acquisitions and divestitures; the extent to which
insurance covers any losses we may experience; our limited control over third parties who operate our oil and gas properties; midstream capacity constraints and potential
interruptions in production; competition for leases, materials, people and capital; cyberattacks targeting our systems and infrastructure; and any of the other risks and
uncertainties identified in our Form 10-K and our other filings with the SEC. Investors are cautioned that any such statements are not guarantees of future performance and
that actual results or developments may differ materially from those projected in the forward-looking statements. The forward-looking statements in this presentation are
made as of the date of this presentation, even if subsequently made available by Devon on its website or otherwise. Devon does not undertake any obligation to update the
forward-looking statements as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.
