Board declares fixed-plus-variable dividend of $0.49 per share based on second-quarter 2021 results
Dividend payout represents a 44 percent increase compared to the previous quarter

OKLAHOMA CITY, Aug. 03, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Devon Energy Corp. (NYSE:DVN) announced today that its board of directors has declared a fixed-plus-variable dividend of $0.49 per share based on the company's second quarter financial performance. This represents a 44 percent increase in payout compared to the dividend declared for the first quarter of 2021. Both the fixed quarterly dividend of $0.11 per share and the variable dividend of $0.38 per share are payable on Sep. 30, 2021 to shareholders of record at the close of business on Sep. 13, 2021.

"We are pleased to continue to reward shareholders and differentiate ourselves by declaring a fixed-plus-variable dividend for the third consecutive quarter," said Rick Muncrief, president and CEO. "The power of this uniquely designed dividend framework was demonstrated with a 44 percent increase to the dividend payout this quarter."

The company's fixed-plus-variable dividend framework is designed to pay a sustainable fixed dividend through the cycle and evaluate a variable dividend on a quarterly basis. After the fixed dividend is funded, up to 50 percent of the remaining excess free cash flow in each quarter may be distributed to shareholders through a variable dividend.
