2. Acquisitions and Divestitures

Acquisition

On September 27, 2024, Devon completed its acquisition of the Williston Basin business of Grayson Mill for total consideration of approximately $5.0 billion, consisting of $3.5 billion of cash and approximately 37.3 million shares of Devon common stock, including purchase price adjustments. Devon funded the cash portion of the purchase price through cash on hand and debt financing. For additional information regarding the debt financing, see Note 11.

Purchase Price Allocation

This transaction has been accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting. Under the acquisition method of accounting, the assets and liabilities of Grayson Mill and its subsidiaries have been recorded at their respective fair values as of the date of completion of the acquisition and added to Devon’s. The preliminary purchase price assessment remains an ongoing process and is subject to change for up to one year subsequent to the closing date of the acquisition. Determining the fair value of the assets and liabilities of Grayson Mill requires judgment and certain assumptions to be made, the most significant of these being related to the valuation of Grayson Mill’s oil and gas properties. The inputs and assumptions related to the oil and gas properties are categorized as level 3 in the fair value hierarchy.

The following table represents the preliminary allocation of the total purchase price of Grayson Mill to the identifiable assets acquired and the liabilities assumed based on the fair values as of the acquisition date.

Contingent Earnout Payments

Devon is entitled to contingent earnout payments associated with the sale of its Barnett Shale assets in 2020 with upside participation beginning at a $2.75 Henry Hub natural gas price or a $50 WTI oil price. The contingent payment period commenced on January 1, 2021 and has a term of four years. Devon received $20 million in contingent earnout payments related to this transaction in the first quarter of 2024 and $65 million in the first quarter of 2023. Devon could also receive up to an additional $65 million in contingent earnout payments for the remaining performance period depending on future commodity prices. The valuation of the future contingent earnout payment included within other current assets in the September 30, 2024 consolidated balance sheet was approximately $20 million. This value was derived utilizing a Monte Carlo valuation model and qualifies as a level 3 fair value measurement.

Devon also received $4 million in contingent earnout payments in the first quarter of 2023 related to the sale of non-core assets in the Rockies.
