DEVON ENERGY CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Presentation

On August 29, 2000, Devon Energy Corporation ("Devon") and Santa Fe
Snyder Corporation ("Santa Fe Snyder") completed a merger of the two companies
(the "Santa Fe Snyder merger"). At that date, Santa Fe Snyder became a
wholly-owned subsidiary of Devon. The Santa Fe Snyder merger was accounted for
under the pooling-of-interests method of accounting for business combinations.
All operational and financial information contained herein includes the combined
amounts of Devon and Santa Fe Snyder for all periods presented.

The accompanying consolidated financial statements and notes thereto
have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and
Exchange Commission. Accordingly, certain footnote disclosures normally included
in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America have been omitted. The
accompanying consolidated financial statements and notes thereto should be read
in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto
included in Devon's 2000 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

In the opinion of Devon's management, all adjustments (all of which are
normal and recurring) have been made which are necessary to fairly state the
consolidated financial position of Devon and its subsidiaries as of March 31,
2001, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for the three
month periods ended March 31, 2001 and 2000. Certain of the 2000 amounts in the
accompanying consolidated financial statements have been reclassified to conform
to the 2001 presentation.

2. DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES

As of January 1, 2001, Devon adopted the provisions of Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative
Instruments and Certain Hedging Activities" and SFAS No. 138, "Accounting for
Certain Derivative Instruments and Certain Hedging Activities, an Amendment of
SFAS No. 133." SFAS No. 133 and SFAS No. 138 require that all derivative
instruments be recorded on the balance sheet at their respective fair values. In
accordance with the transition provisions of SFAS No. 133, Devon recorded a
net-of-tax cumulative-effect-type adjustment of a $36.6 million loss in
accumulated other comprehensive loss to recognize at fair value all derivatives
that are designated as cash-flow hedging instruments. Additionally, Devon
recorded a net-of-tax cumulative-effect-type adjustment to net earnings for a
$49.5 million gain ($0.38 per basic share and $0.37 per diluted share) related
to the fair value of derivative instruments that do not qualify as hedges. This
gain related principally to the option embedded in Devon's debentures that are
exchangeable into shares of Chevron Corporation common stock.

All derivatives are recognized on the balance sheet at their fair
value. All of Devon's derivatives that qualify for hedge accounting treatment
are either "cash flow" hedges or "foreign currency cash flow" hedges
(collectively, "cash flow hedges"). Devon designates its cash flow hedge
derivatives as such on the date the derivative contract is entered into. Devon
formally documents all relationships between hedging instruments and hedged
items, as well as its risk-management objective and strategy for undertaking
various hedge transactions. Devon also assesses, both at the hedge's inception
and on an ongoing basis, whether the derivatives that are used in hedging
transactions are highly effective in offsetting changes in cash flows of hedged
items.

During the first quarter of 2001, there were no gains or losses
reclassified into earnings as a result of the discontinuance of hedge accounting
treatment for any of Devon's derivatives.

By using derivative instruments to hedge exposures to changes in
commodity prices and exchange rates, Devon exposes itself to credit risk and
market risk. Credit risk is the failure of the counterparty to perform under the
terms of the derivative contract. To mitigate this risk, the hedging instruments
are usually placed with counterparties that Devon believes are minimal credit
risks.

Market risk is the adverse effect on the value of a derivative
instrument that results from a change in interest rates, commodity prices, or
currency exchange rates. The market risk associated with commodity price and
foreign exchange contracts is managed by establishing and monitoring parameters
that limit the types and degree of market risk that may be undertaken.

Devon periodically enters into financial hedging activities with
respect to a portion of its projected oil and natural gas production through
various financial transactions to manage its exposure to oil and gas price
volatility. These transactions include financial price swaps whereby Devon will
receive a fixed price for its production and pay a variable market price to the
contract counterparty. These transactions also include costless price collars
that set a floor and ceiling price for the hedged production. If the applicable
monthly price indices are outside of the ranges set by the floor and ceiling
prices in the various collars, Devon and the counterparty to the collars will
settle the difference. These financial hedging activities are intended to
support oil and natural gas prices at targeted levels and to manage Devon's
exposure to oil and gas price fluctuations. The oil and gas reference prices
upon which these price hedging instruments are based reflect various market
indices that have a high degree of historical correlation with actual prices
received by Devon.

Devon also periodically enters into foreign exchange rate swaps to
manage its exposure to oil and gas price volatility. The foreign exchange rate
swaps mitigate the effect of volatility in the Canadian-to-U.S. dollar exchange
rate on Canadian oil revenues that are predominantly based on U.S. dollar
prices.

Devon does not hold or issue derivative instruments for trading
purposes. All of Devon's commodity price financial swaps and costless price
collars and foreign exchange rate swaps in place at January 1, 2001 and March
31, 2001 have been designated as cash flow hedges. Changes in the

9
10

fair value of these derivatives are reported on the balance sheet in
"Accumulated other comprehensive loss" ("AOCL"). These amounts are reclassified
to oil and gas sales when the forecasted transaction takes place.

Devon assesses the effectiveness of its hedges based on changes in the
derivative's intrinsic value. The change in the time value of the derivative is
excluded from the assessment of hedge effectiveness and, along with any
ineffectiveness, is recorded on the statement of operations in "Change in fair
value of derivative instruments." For the quarter ended March 31, 2001, Devon
recorded a net charge of less than $0.1 million which represented the
ineffectiveness of the various cash flow hedges.

As of January 1, 2001, $31.9 million of net deferred losses on
derivative instruments accumulated in AOCL as a result of the $36.6 million
transition adjustment are expected to be reclassified to earnings during the
next 12 months.

As of March 31, 2001, $16.1 million of net deferred losses on
derivative instruments accumulated in AOCL are expected to be reclassified to
earnings during the next 12 months. Transactions and events expected to occur
over the next 12 months that will necessitate reclassifying these derivatives'
losses to earnings are the production and sale of oil and gas which includes the
production hedged under the various derivative instruments. The maximum term
over which the Company is hedging exposures to the variability of cash flows for
commodity price risk is 21 months.

Devon recorded an expense of $14.0 million in the first quarter of 2001
for the change in fair value of derivative instruments. Substantially all of
this expense related to the fair value change in the option that is embedded in
Devon's debentures which are exchangeable into shares of Chevron Corporation
common stock.

3. EARNINGS PER SHARE

The following tables reconcile the net earnings and common shares
outstanding used in the calculations of basic and diluted earnings per share for
the three-month periods ended March 31, 2001 and 2000.

Options to purchase approximately 0.8 million shares of Devon's common
stock with exercise prices ranging from $58.84 per share to $89.66 per share
(with a weighted average price of $66.49 per share) were outstanding at March
31, 2001, but were not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share
for the first quarter of 2001 because the options' exercise price exceeded the
average market price of Devon's common stock during the first quarter.
Similarly, options to purchase approximately 2.6 million shares of Devon's
common stock with exercise prices ranging from $39.44 per share to $92.78 per
share (with a weighted average price of $59.96 per share) were excluded from the
diluted earnings per share calculation for the first quarter of 2000. The
excluded options for the 2001 period expire between May 22, 2001 and February
22, 2011.

5. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Devon is party to various legal actions arising in the normal course of
business. Matters that are probable of unfavorable outcome to Devon and which
can be reasonably estimated are accrued. Such accruals are based on information
known about the matters, Devon's estimates of the outcomes of such matters and
its experience in contesting, litigating and settling similar matters. None of
the actions are believed by management to involve future amounts that would be
material to Devon's financial position or results of operations after
consideration of recorded accruals.

Environmental Matters

Devon is subject to certain laws and regulations relating to
environmental remediation activities associated with past operations, such as
the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act
("CERCLA") and similar state statutes. In response to liabilities associated
with these activities, accruals have been established when reasonable estimates
are possible. Such accruals primarily include estimated costs associated with
remediation. Devon has not used discounting in determining its accrued
liabilities for environmental remediation, and no claims for possible recovery
from third party insurers or other parties related to environmental costs have
been recognized in Devon's consolidated financial statements. Devon adjusts the
accruals when new remediation responsibilities are discovered and probable costs
become estimable, or when current remediation estimates must be adjusted to
reflect new information.

Certain of Devon's subsidiaries acquired in the PennzEnergy merger are
involved in matters in which it has been alleged that such subsidiaries are
potentially responsible parties ("PRPs") under CERCLA or similar state
legislation with respect to various waste disposal areas owned or operated by
third parties. As of March 31, 2001, Devon's consolidated balance sheet included
$7.8 million of accrued liabilities, reflected in "Other liabilities," for
environmental remediation. Devon does not currently believe there is a
reasonable possibility of incurring additional material costs in excess of the
current accruals recognized for such environmental remediation activities. With
respect to the sites in which Devon subsidiaries are PRPs, Devon's conclusion is
based in large part on (i) the availability of defenses to liability, including
the availability of the "petroleum exclusion" under CERCLA and similar state
laws, and/or (ii) Devon's current belief that its share of wastes at a
particular site is or will be viewed by the Environmental Protection Agency or
other PRPs as being de minimis. As a result, Devon's monetary exposure is not
expected to be material.

Royalty Matters

More than 30 oil companies, including Devon, are involved in disputes
in which it is alleged that such companies and related parties underpaid
royalty, overriding royalty and working interests owners in connection with the
production of crude oil. The proceedings include suits in federal court in
Texas, Louisiana, Mississippi and Wyoming that have been consolidated into one
proceeding in Texas. To avoid expensive and protracted litigation, certain
parties, including Devon, have entered into a global settlement agreement which
provides for a settlement of all claims of all members of the settlement class.
The court held a fairness hearing and issued an Amended Final Judgment approving

15
16

5. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES (CONTINUED)

the settlement on September 10, 1999. However, certain entities have appealed
their objections to the settlement.

Also, pending in federal court in Texas is a similar suit alleging
underpaid royalties to the United States in connection with natural gas and
natural gas liquids produced and sold from United States owned and/or controlled
lands. The claims were filed by private litigants against Devon and numerous
other producers, under the federal False Claims Act. The United States served
notice of its intent to intervene as to certain defendants, but not Devon. Devon
and certain other defendants are challenging the constitutionality of whether a
claim under the federal False Claims Act can be maintained absent government
intervention. Devon believes that it has acted reasonably and paid royalties in
good faith. Devon does not currently believe that it is subject to material
exposure in association with this litigation. As a result, Devon's monetary
exposure in this suit is not expected to be material.

Maersk Rig Contract

In December 1997, the working interest owner partner of Pennzoil
Venezuela Corporation, S.A. ("PVC"), a subsidiary of Devon as a result of the
PennzEnergy merger, entered into a contract with Maersk Jupiter Drilling, S.A.
("Maersk") for the provision of a rig for drilling services relative to the
anticipated drilling program associated with Devon's Block 70/80 in Lake
Maracaibo, Venezuela. The rig was assembled and delivered by Maersk to Lake
Maracaibo where it performed an abbreviated drilling program for both Blocks
68/79 and 70/80. It is currently stacked in Lake Maracaibo. The contract, which
expires October 1, 2001, provides for early termination, with a charge for such
termination which is currently estimated at $42,000 per day with certain
escalation factors for the balance of the term. As of March 31, 2001, Devon's
consolidated balance sheet included accrued liabilities, reflected in "Other
liabilities," for the expected cost to terminate/settle the contract. Devon does
not currently believe there is a reasonable possibility of incurring additional
material costs in excess of the liability recognized for such
termination/settlement of the contract.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS.

The following discussion addresses material changes in results of
operations for the three months ended March 31, 2001, compared to the three
months ended March 31, 2000, and in financial condition since December 31, 2000.
It is presumed that readers have read or have access to Devon's 2000 Annual
Report on Form 10-K.

OVERVIEW

Devon's revenues and net earnings for the quarter ended March 31, 2001,
were the highest of any quarter in its history. Net earnings for the first
quarter of 2001 were $400.3 million, or $3.08 per share. This compares to net
earnings of $105.2 million, or $0.81 per share for the first quarter of 2000.
The increase in first quarter earnings was due to sharply higher natural gas
prices and higher overall production.

17
18

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Total revenues increased $463.2 million, or 83%, in the first quarter
of 2001. This was the result of increases in the average prices of gas and NGL,
along with higher production on a combined Boe basis. Oil, gas and NGL revenues
were up $463.1 million, or 84%, for the first quarter of 2001 compared to the
first quarter of 2000. The quarterly comparisons of production and price changes
are shown in the following tables. (Note: Unless otherwise stated, all dollar
amounts are expressed in U.S. dollars.)

(1) Gas volumes are converted to Boe or MBoe at the rate of six Mcf of gas
per barrel of oil, based upon the approximate relative energy content
of natural gas and oil, which rate is not necessarily indicative of the
relationship of oil and gas prices. The respective prices of oil, gas
and NGL are affected by market and other factors in addition to
relative energy content.

N/M Not meaningful.

OIL REVENUES. Oil revenues decreased $16.2 million, or 6%, in the first
quarter of 2001. Oil revenues decreased $4.4 million due to a $0.42 per barrel
decrease in the average price of oil in 2001. A decrease in 2001's production of
0.5 million barrels caused oil revenues to decrease by $11.8 million. This
reduction was primarily the result of the disposition of certain domestic and
international properties whose production was included in the 2000 quarter but
which were sold prior to the 2001 quarter.

GAS REVENUES. Gas revenues increased $484.4 million, or 201%, in 2001's
first quarter. Production rose 8.0 Bcf in the 2001 period, which added $18.6
million of gas revenues. A $4.17 per Mcf increase in the average gas price in
the first quarter of 2001 contributed $465.8 million of the increase in gas
revenues.

The largest contributor to the 2001 production increase was production
added as a result of new drilling and development domestically, primarily in
Devon's coalbed methane properties.

These domestic increases were partially offset by a decline in Canadian
gas production of 1.2 Bcf, or 7% in the 2001 quarter. Increased royalty rates
and natural declines, partially offset by

20
21

new drilling, development and acquisitions were the primary reasons for the
production decline. The increase in gas prices from the 2000 quarter to the 2001
quarter, resulted in an increase in the Canadian government's royalty percentage
from 21.2% in the 2000 quarter to 28.8% in the 2001 quarter. Gross Canadian gas
production, before royalties, was 21.3 Bcf in the 2001 quarter compared to 20.8
Bcf in the 2000 quarter.

NGL REVENUES. NGL revenues decreased $5.0 million, or 13%, in the first
quarter of 2001. An increase in the average price in 2001 of $5.22 per barrel,
or 27%, caused NGL revenues to increase $6.9 million in the 2001 period. A
production decrease of 0.6 million barrels caused revenues to decrease $11.9
million. The production drop was primarily the result of a temporary shutdown of
a gas processing plant in the Gulf of Mexico and the sale of certain domestic
properties.

PRODUCTION AND OPERATING EXPENSES. The components of production and
operating expenses for the first quarter of 2001 and 2000 are set forth in the
following tables.

Total production and operating expenses $ 6.07 4.58 +33%
=========== =======
</TABLE>

Recurring operations and maintenance expenses increased $12.6 million,
or 12%, in the first quarter of 2001. This increase was primarily the result of
increases in fuel and electricity costs as well as increases in many third-party
field service costs.

Transportation costs increased $5.6 million, primarily due to an
increase in coalbed methane gas production and increases in transportation
costs.

21
22

Production taxes increased $25.1 million, or 129%, in the 2001 quarter.
The majority of Devon's production taxes are assessed on its onshore domestic
properties. In the U.S., most of the production taxes are based on a fixed
percentage of revenues. Therefore, the 95% increase in domestic oil, gas and NGL
revenues in the first quarter of 2001 was the primary cause of the production
tax increase. Production taxes did not increase proportionately to the increase
in revenues. This was primarily due to the fact that most of the increase in
domestic revenues occurred in the Rocky Mountain division which has higher
production tax rates than the other domestic divisions.

DEPRECIATION, DEPLETION AND AMORTIZATION EXPENSES ("DD&A"). Oil and gas
property related DD&A increased $15.3 million, or 10%, from $158.9 million in
the first quarter of 2000 to $174.2 million in the first quarter of 2001. Oil
and gas property related DD&A expense increased $1.3 million due to the 1%
increase in combined oil, gas and NGLs production in 2001. Additionally, an
increase in the combined U.S., Canadian and international DD&A rate from $5.27
per Boe in 2000 to $5.73 per Boe in 2001 caused oil and gas property related
DD&A to increase by $14.0 million. The $0.46 increase in the 2001 rate over the
2000 rate is primarily the result of an increase in future development costs and
the disposition of certain properties during 2000, partially offset by an
increase in total reserves.

Non-oil and gas property DD&A expense increased $2.4 million from $6.3
million in the first quarter of 2000 compared to $8.7 million the first quarter
of 2001. Depreciation of new non-oil and gas property and the gas pipeline and
gathering system in Wyoming accounted for the increase.

AMORTIZATION OF GOODWILL. In connection with Devon's August 1999 merger
with PennzEnergy Company, Devon recorded $352.1 million of goodwill. Subsequent
to the first quarter of 2000, adjustments to the purchase price resulted in
changes to goodwill. These changes caused goodwill amortization to decrease from
$10.3 million in the first quarter of 2000 to $8.5 million in the first quarter
of 2001.

GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES ("G&A"). Devon's net G&A consists
of three primary components. The largest of these components is the gross amount
of expenses incurred for personnel costs, office expenses, professional fees and
other G&A items. The gross amount of these expenses is partially reduced by two
offsetting components. One is the amount of G&A capitalized pursuant to the
full-cost method of accounting. The other is the amount of G&A reimbursed by
working interest owners of properties for which Devon serves as the operator.
These reimbursements are received during both the drilling and operational
stages of a property's life. The gross amount of G&A incurred, less the amounts
capitalized and reimbursed, is recorded as net G&A in the consolidated
statements of operations. The following table is a summary of G&A expenses by
component for the first quarter of 2001 and 2000.

</TABLE>

Net G&A decreased $2.6 million, or 10%, in the first quarter of 2001
compared to the first quarter of 2000. Gross G&A decreased $1.3 million, or 2%.
The decrease in gross expenses in the first quarter of 2001 was primarily
related to cost savings realized from the Santa Fe Snyder merger.

G&A was reduced $1.6 million due to an increase in the amount
capitalized as part of oil and gas properties. The increase in capitalized G&A
was primarily related to increased drilling activities. G&A, however, rose by
$0.3 million due to a decrease in the amount of reimbursements on operated
properties in the 2001 quarter.

INTEREST EXPENSE. Interest expense decreased $5.5 million, or 14%, in
2001's first quarter. A decrease in the average debt balance outstanding from
$2.4 billion in 2000 to $1.9 billion in 2001 caused interest expense to decrease
by $8.6 million. The decrease in the average debt balance in the first quarter
of 2001 was primarily attributable to the repayment of long-term debt from
excess cash flow. Approximately $0.1 billion of the reduction was due to certain
debentures being revalued upon the adoption of a new accounting principle as
discussed below.

The increase in the average rate on the debt outstanding from 6.8% in
the 2000 quarter to 6.9% in the 2001 quarter resulted in a $0.3 million increase
in interest expense. The increase in the rate is the result of the adoption of
Financial Accounting Standards Board Statement of Financial Accounting Standards
No. 133 ("SFAS No. 133") effective January 1, 2001. Pursuant to SFAS No. 133,
the debentures that are exchangeable into shares of Chevron Corporation common
stock were revalued as of August 17, 1999. This is the date the debentures were
assumed as part of the PennzEnergy merger. Under SFAS No. 133, the total fair
value of the debentures was allocated between the interest-bearing debt and the
option that is embedded in the debentures. Accordingly, the debt portion of the
debentures was reduced by $139.6 million as of August 17, 1999. This discount is
being accreted in interest expense, which has raised the effective interest rate
on the debentures to 7.76% in the first quarter of 2001 compared to 4.92%
recorded prior to 2001. The accretion in the first quarter of 2001 was $3.0
million.

DEFERRED EFFECT OF CHANGES IN FOREIGN CURRENCY EXCHANGE RATE ON
SUBSIDIARY'S LONG-TERM DEBT. Until mid-January 2000, Devon's Canadian subsidiary
Northstar Energy Corporation had certain fixed-rate senior notes which were
denominated in U.S. dollars. Changes in the exchange rate between the U.S.
dollar and the Canadian dollar from the dates the notes were issued to the date
of repayment increased or decreased the expected amount of Canadian dollars
eventually required to repay the notes. Such changes in the Canadian dollar
equivalent balance of the debt were required to be included in determining net
earnings for the period in which the exchange rate changed. In mid-January 2000,
the U.S. dollar denominated notes were retired prior to maturity with cash on
hand and borrowings under Devon's long-term credit facilities. The
Canadian-to-U.S. dollar exchange rate dropped slightly in January 2000 prior to
the debt retirement. As a result, $2.4 million of expense was recognized in the
first quarter of 2000.

CHANGE IN FAIR VALUE OF DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS. As a result of the
adoption of SFAS No. 133 effective January 1, 2001, all derivatives are included
on the balance sheet at their fair value. The $14.0 million charge included in
the first quarter of 2001 principally represents the change in the fair value of
derivatives that do not qualify as hedges. The change is primarily the result of
changes in the fair value of the option embedded in the debentures exchangeable
into shares of Chevron Corporation common stock.

INCOME TAXES. During interim periods, income tax expense is based on
the estimated effective income tax rate that is expected for the entire fiscal
year. The estimated effective tax rate in the first quarter of 2001 was 39%,
compared to 41% estimated in the first quarter of 2000.

The lower expected 2001 rate is primarily due to the effect of certain
components of 2001's income tax expense that will not fluctuate in relation to
pre-tax earnings. Examples are the amounts of amortization of goodwill and
certain Canadian DD&A recorded for financial statement purposes that are not
deductible for income tax purposes, and the Canadian large corporation tax that
is based on capitalization levels instead of pre-tax earnings. As pre-tax
earnings increase as they did in 2001, these fixed components have less impact
on the effective tax rate.

Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109, "Accounting for
Income Taxes" ("SFAS No. 109"), requires that the tax benefit of available tax
carryforwards be recorded as an asset to the extent that management assesses the
utilization of such carryforwards to be "more likely than not". When the future
utilization of some portion of the carryforwards is determined not to be "more
likely than not", SFAS No. 109 requires that a valuation allowance be provided
to reduce the recorded tax benefits from such assets.

Included as deferred tax assets at March 31, 2001, were approximately
$208 million of net operating loss carryforwards. The carryforwards include U.S.
federal net operating loss carryforwards, the majority of which do not begin to
expire until 2008, U.S. state net operating loss carryforwards which expire
primarily between 2002 and 2014, Canadian carryforwards which expire primarily
between 2001 and 2007 and minimum tax credits which have no expiration. Devon
expects the tax benefits from the net operating loss carryforwards to be
utilized between 2001 and 2006. Such expectation is based upon current estimates
of taxable income during this period, considering limitations on the annual
utilization of these benefits as set forth by federal tax regulations.
Significant changes in such estimates caused by variables such as future oil and
gas prices or capital expenditures could alter the timing of the eventual
utilization of such carryforwards. There can be no assurance that Devon will
generate any specific level of continuing taxable earnings. However, Devon's
management believes that future taxable income will more likely than not be
sufficient to utilize substantially all its tax carryforwards prior to their
expirations.

CUMULATIVE EFFECT OF CHANGE IN ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLE. At the time of
adoption of SFAS No. 133, Devon recorded a cumulative-effect-type adjustment to
net earnings for a $49.5 million gain related to the fair value of derivatives
that do not qualify as hedges. This gain included $46.2 million related to the
option embedded in the debentures that are exchangeable into shares of Chevron
Corporation common stock.

CAPITAL EXPENDITURES, CAPITAL RESOURCES AND LIQUIDITY

The following discussion of capital expenditures, capital resources and
liquidity should be read in conjunction with the consolidated statements of cash
flows included in Part 1, Item 1.

CAPITAL EXPENDITURES. Approximately $345.9 million was spent in the
first three months of 2001 for capital expenditures. This total includes $332.1
million for the acquisition, drilling or development of oil and gas properties,
$4.5 million related to the construction of an extensive gas gathering system,
related CO2 removal facilities and gas processing project all located in the
Powder River Basin of Wyoming, and $9.3 million for other fixed assets.

Approximately $436.1 million was spent for capital expenditures in the
first quarter of 2000. This total includes $409.5 million for the acquisition,
drilling or development of oil and gas properties, $16.6 million related to the
construction of the gas pipeline and gathering system in Wyoming, and $10.0
million for other fixed assets.

CAPITAL RESOURCES AND LIQUIDITY. Net cash provided by operating
activities ("operating cash flow") continued to be the primary source of capital
and liquidity in the first quarter of 2001. Operating cash flow in the first
quarter of 2001 was $756.7 million, compared to $346.0 million in the first
quarter of 2000. The increase in operating cash flow in the 2001 quarter was
primarily caused by the rise in revenues, partially offset by increased
expenses, as discussed earlier in this section.

Devon used its operating cash flow to fund its capital expenditures,
reduce long-term debt by over $55 million and increase cash and cash equivalents
by almost $382 million during the first quarter. As of April 30, 2001, Devon had
approximately $933 million available under its $1 billion credit facilities.
