Long-Term Debt
In May 2012, Devon issued $2.5 billion of senior notes that are unsecured and unsubordinated obligations of Devon. Devon used the net proceeds to repay outstanding commercial paper and credit facility borrowings. The schedule below summarizes the key terms of these notes ($ in millions).
Commercial Paper
As of June 30, 2012, Devon had $2.1 billion of outstanding commercial paper at an average rate of 0.40 percent.
Credit Lines
On April 7, 2012, $0.46 billion of Devon’s Senior Credit Facility matured and was not extended. After the maturity, Devon maintains a $2.19 billion syndicated, unsecured revolving line of credit (the "Senior Credit Facility"). As of June 30, 2012, there were no borrowings under the Senior Credit Facility. The Senior Credit Facility contains only one material financial covenant. This covenant requires Devon’s ratio of total funded debt to total capitalization, as defined in the credit agreement, to be less than 65 percent. As of June 30, 2012, Devon was in compliance with this covenant with a debt-to-capitalization ratio of 23.8 percent. |
