On July 8, 2024, Devon agreed to buy Grayson Mill's Williston Basin business for $3.25 billion in cash plus 37,210,292 new Devon shares, both subject to adjustment. Closing is expected in the third quarter of 2024, pending antitrust (HSR) clearance, with $250 million to be placed in escrow; the sellers get resale registration rights for the shares. This is the acquisition later funded in part by the August 2024 term loan and notes.
