DVN Devon Energy Corporation
Price Chart
Executive Summary
Devon Energy acquired 16,300 net undeveloped acres in the Delaware Basin for $2.6 billion ($161,500/acre) from a BLM lease sale. The deal adds ~400 high-quality locations with favorable federal lease terms (87.5% NRI, 10-year terms) adjacent to existing acreage, funded with cash on hand. This is a bolt-on to the recently completed Coterra merger, extending inventory life and expected to be NAV-accretive.
Key Financial Metrics
