Updates
July 21, 2022: deal closes.
Original Post
Devon is tracked here.
Dividends: it is hard to figure out what the "regular fixed dividend" is but it appears to be 34 cents.
DVN:
- today: closed down slightly during the day; trading at $78
- down minimally after hours, after announcement
- P/E = 14
- market cap = $52 billion
- pays 6.52%
- pays a regular fixed and a variable dividend
- dividend history here; from 9 cents two years ago to $1.27 now which will be increased. In the chart below, I assume both "fixed" and "variable" dividend included.
Breaking: Devon is coming to North Dakota. Lynn Helms said this back in 2011 and the blog caught it! Whoo-hoo! Actually caught it twice, see below. Press release here.
From an earlier post on the blog:
- July 25, 2021: buyout offer?
- private equity firm Warburg Pincus asked for indicative acquisition offers for a deal that could exceed $500 million
Put this in context with NOG's announcement of a Bakken bolt-on addition yesterday.
- buyer: Devon
- seller: RimRock Oil and Gas LP
- deal:
- 38,000 net acres in the Williston Basin / Bakken
- $865 million
- back of envelope, $/acre:
- $865 million / 38,000 net acres = $23,000 / net acre
- production: RimRock’s first-quarter production was approximately 15,000 Boe per day (78% oil), with volumes expected to increase to an average of 20,000 Boe per day over the next year.
- back of the envelope, $/flowing boepd:
- $865 million / 15,000 boepd = $60,000 peer flowing boepd
- almost identical to the NOG acquisition linked above
Devon will approve a 13% increase to the fixed quarterly dividend following the closing of the deal. The company also expects this transaction to be accretive to the variable dividend payout in 2022 and beyond.
