DOUBTFUL — METHODS DIFFERstock

Is DVN Halal?

Oil and gas production — financial ratios pass, but hydrocarbon activity remains a qualitative concern.

What You Should Know

Devon's March 31, 2026 filing reports debt/assets of 25.77%, liquidity/assets of 5.42%, receivables plus cash/assets of 12.33% and disclosed interest income of 0.37% of quarterly revenue. Oil, gas, NGL, midstream and marketing activity can be permissible, while hydraulic fracturing, emissions, commodity contracts and conventional financing require review.

⚠️ Concerns

  • Oil and gas extraction and hydraulic-fracturing impacts
  • Commodity marketing and derivatives
  • Disclosed interest income is not a complete purification prescription

A properly licensed historical market-cap series is not stored and business classification remains incomplete, so market-cap methods are not estimated from a current spot price.

Business-activity disclosure

Devon explores and produces oil, gas and NGLs and operates midstream and marketing activities. Energy production can be permissible, while hydrocarbon end uses, commodity contracts, emissions, water, land and conventional financing require qualitative review.

Limitation: The filing does not quantify a scholar-specific prohibited-revenue numerator; the $14 million interest-income figure is a disclosed income-screen input, not a complete purification prescription.

Purification

Devon discloses $14 million of interest income but does not prescribe a scholar-approved purification percentage; the disclosed ratio is evidence for the income screen, not a complete purification prescription.

Inputs, assumptions and primary sources
  • Amounts are USD millions from Devon Energy's March 31, 2026 Form 10-Q.
  • Interest-bearing debt is $999 million of short-term debt plus $7,387 million of long-term debt; operating lease liabilities are excluded.
  • Cash and cash equivalents are $1,763 million; restricted cash is excluded and investments are not identified as unrestricted debt securities.
  • Net accounts receivable are $2,250 million; first-quarter revenue is $3,807 million and disclosed interest income is $14 million.
  • The filing does not allocate oil, gas, NGL, royalty, marketing or other revenue into a universal prohibited-activity numerator.

This is a reproducible financial screen, not a fatwa. A failed total-assets screen can coexist with a pass under a market-cap methodology. ZakatInvest keeps the qualitative assessment separate so numerical thresholds do not erase material context.
