We cannot judge Devon Energy Corporation yet, because fewer than five years had both a return on capital and a cost of capital we could measure. This is not a “no”.

Devon Energy Corporation (DVN) has a Lemma Quality Score of 7.3 out of 10 as of October 19, 2026, which reads as high quality. A high reading means most of the pillars are strong, with no serious weakness pulling the average down. Five pillars feed it, and every one of them is computed from what the company reported rather than from its share price.
Ranked with the 87 Energy companies Lemma publishes, the score sits at the 98th percentile, among the top tenth of the group. The median across the group is 5.0, and the top quarter begins at 5.9, so Devon Energy Corporation is well above the typical company here.
On profitability, Devon Energy Corporation scores 8.7, a strong reading. Its peers have a median of 5.5 across 84 Energy companies, which places it well above them, at the 87th percentile. A reading this strong says the business earns well on what it sells and on the capital it uses, the kind of margin profile competitors find hard to copy.
There is no solvency score for Devon Energy Corporation: too little of the pillar could be measured from the filings to give an honest reading. The overall is therefore the weighted average of the other pillars. Across 79 Energy companies the median for this pillar is 6.5. Without it the overall says nothing about how comfortably the company carries its debt.
Devon Energy Corporation’s growth score is 10.0 out of 10 (strong). Against a median of 5.2 among 66 Energy companies, that is well above the group and the 99th percentile. A high growth score rewards a business that is getting bigger in a way that reaches the bottom line, not just the top one.
Devon Energy Corporation’s efficiency score is 6.8 out of 10 (average). Against a median of 5.5 among 81 Energy companies, that is above the group and the 65th percentile. Middling efficiency is unremarkable on its own, though improvements here tend to show up in free cash flow first.
Devon Energy Corporation’s predictability score is 3.3 out of 10 (weak). Against a median of 3.1 among 86 Energy companies, that is in line with the group and the 61st percentile. A low predictability score often belongs to cyclical businesses, where good and bad years alternate with the economy or with commodity prices.
This is a lopsided profile. Growth scores 10.0 but predictability only 3.3, a gap of 6.7 points, so the overall hides a business that is excellent in one respect and weak in another. A growth lead says the business is expanding faster than it is doing anything else well, which is worth checking against predictability. A predictability shortfall means the record is volatile, so the averages behind the other pillars move more than they appear to.
Every scored pillar is at or above the median of Energy companies, so there is no catch-up left to lift the overall. The risk runs the other way: a one point fall in profitability, the heaviest of them, would take the score from 7.3 to about 7.0. Only four of the five pillars could be scored. Together they carry 80 of the 100 weight points (the full set is profitability 25, solvency 20, growth 20, efficiency 15, predictability 20), and the overall is the weighted average of those alone.
These are the Energy companies closest to Devon Energy Corporation in market value. Each has its own page scored on the same five pillars, so the comparison is like for like.
How much profit the company generates from its capital and sales.
The company’s ability to service debt and meet its obligations.
How fast revenue, earnings and cash flow are compounding.
How well assets and earnings convert into cash and output.
How stable and consistent results have been over time.
Each metric is scored from 0 to 10 against sector-aware benchmarks, where higher is better. Metrics roll up into five pillars, and the pillars combine into the overall score using the weights shown. Sector-sensitive metrics are judged relative to peers in the same sector.
This score is a systematic, backward-looking read of reported fundamentals. It does not judge valuation, management quality, competitive moat, or future prospects, and can be distorted by one-off items or unusual accounting. Treat it as a starting point, not a recommendation.

This page last changed on October 19, 2026. The score moves with the financial statements, so the page changes when a new filing moves the reading rather than on a schedule. Live figures for DVN are in the app.
No. Quality and valuation are separate questions, and a good business at the wrong price is still a bad purchase. Score the business here, then price it with a DCF you control.
Inside Lemma Analysis the same five pillars run on every company we cover, with the metrics behind each one, current fundamentals, a DCF you control and a watchlist that tells you when the price catches up.
