Devon Energy is an independent oil and gas producer that explores for and produces crude oil, natural gas and natural gas liquids in the United States. Its operations are focused on shale and other onshore basins, with the Delaware Basin in the Permian region a key area. The company supplies its output to refiners, processors, utilities and marketers, and has no consumer-facing business.
Revenue comes from the production it markets, so its income moves with oil and gas prices as well as volumes. Sales were $20.4 billion over the last twelve months, with growth of -4.6% a year over the last three years. The operating margin is 23.1%, and the business earns a profit of 7% on the capital invested in it. Net debt is 1.4 times EBITDA. The dividend yield is 2.2%. On the site's X-Ray Score it receives 49 out of 100.

Debt = borrowings plus lease liabilities. Cash & securities = cash, equivalents and short-term marketable securities (long-term securities are not counted, so net cash can be understated for companies that hold large long-term investments). Net debt = debt minus cash & securities. Source: latest SEC 10-Q/10-K. EBIT / EV yield = operating profit divided by market cap plus net debt.
Fair value estimate
$65middle half of models $51 – $74
Undervalued+26.0% to fair value
Average of the 13 valuation models that pass our checks: multiples, discounted cash flow, dividend discount and earnings power value. A model more than 100% above or 60% below the price is left out as unrealistic. Model uncertainty is High, based on how far apart the models are. Undervalued or Overvalued means the gap to fair value is more than 17.5%.
Peak-cycle earnings: the current operating margin is more than 1.5x its 7-year average, so multiples applied to today's profit may overstate value; model uncertainty is set to High

What this means
Weak business, but the price is low
Our models put fair value above today's price, but models can be wrong, so check the business first. A high score does not guarantee a good outcome; it shifts the odds a little. Use the checklist as a prompt for your own research.

Sector leaders: highest X-Ray Score in Energy
DVN ranks #12 of 20 in Energy and #6 of 9 in Oil & Gas Exploration & Production by X-Ray Score. A higher score is stronger on our five pillars; it is a ranking of facts, not a forecast.
Green means better than the peer median, red worse (only where a higher or lower figure is clearly better). A dash means too few companies report the figure. P/E, EV/EBITDA and price changes are not graded: a different level is not good or bad by itself.

These ratings compare companies with each other and describe the past; they are not a forecast, a recommendation or part of the X-Ray Score. A factor is left out when its data is missing or meaningless (for example a P/E on negative earnings). A dash in the history columns means fewer than three usable years.

Signals describe what the chart is doing, not what to do. Moving averages: price above the average is bullish. Oscillators use the usual thresholds (RSI 30/70, Stochastic 20/80, CCI ±100, Williams %R −80/−20; MACD and momentum above zero are bullish). Weekly and monthly views use closing prices only.
