billion for underground development activities in the Grasberg minerals district in Indonesia, which depends on a resolution of
PT Freeport Indonesia's (PT-FI) long-term operating rights.
- At June 30, 2017, consolidated cash totaled $4.7 billion and consolidated debt
totaled $15.4 billion, compared with $4.2 billion of consolidated cash and $16.0 billion of consolidated debt at December 31,
2016. FCX had no borrowings and $3.5 billion available under its revolving credit facility at June 30, 2017.
Freeport-McMoRan Inc. (NYSE: FCX) reported net income attributable to common stock of $268 million ($0.18 per share) for
second-quarter 2017 and $496 million ($0.34 per share) for the first six months of 2017, compared with net losses attributable to
common stock of $479 million ($0.38 per share) for second-quarter 2016 and $4.7 billion ($3.70 per share) for the first six months
of 2016. After adjusting for net gains (losses) of $27 million ($0.01 per share) for second-quarter 2017 and $(452) million
($(0.36) per share) for second-quarter 2016, adjusted net income (loss) attributable to common stock totaled $241 million ($0.17
per share) for second-quarter 2017 and $(27) million ($(0.02) per share) for second-quarter 2016. Additionally, FCX's
second-quarter 2017 sales from its mining operations to affiliated smelters resulted in the deferral of $51 million ($0.04 per
share) of net income attributable to common stock, which will be recognized in future periods. Refer to the supplemental schedules,
"Adjusted Net Income (Loss)," beginning on page VII, and "Deferred Profits," on page X, which are available on FCX's website,

Richard C. Adkerson, President and Chief Executive Officer, said, "We are successfully executing our strategy of building
values in our large-scale, industry-leading portfolio of copper assets. Our strong management of costs and ongoing capital
discipline combined with improved copper prices are providing free cash flow to strengthen our company’s financial position. We
remain focused on protecting our past investments and supporting our long-term investment plans at the high-grade, long-lived
mineral deposits in the Grasberg minerals district in Papua, Indonesia. We are encouraged by recent progress in our active
negotiations with the Indonesian government to resolve issues involving our contractual rights and by multiple opportunities to
build long-term future values for our shareholders from our high-quality copper assets in the Americas."

Consolidated Sales Volumes
Second-quarter 2017 copper sales of 942 million pounds were lower than the April 2017 estimate of 975 million pounds,
primarily reflecting the impact of worker absenteeism on mining and milling rates in Indonesia. Second-quarter 2017 copper sales
were also lower than second-quarter 2016 sales of 987 million pounds, primarily reflecting anticipated lower ore grades in North
America and lower leach production and recoveries in South America, partly offset by higher volumes from Indonesia associated with
higher ore grades and the sale of concentrate in inventory produced in first-quarter 2017.
Second-quarter 2017 gold sales of 432 thousand ounces were slightly lower than the April 2017 estimate of 440 thousand
ounces, but were higher than second-quarter 2016 sales of 156 thousand ounces, primarily reflecting higher ore grades from
Indonesia.
Second-quarter 2017 molybdenum sales of 25 million pounds were slightly higher than the April 2017 estimate of 24 million
pounds and were higher than second-quarter 2016 sales of 19 million pounds.
Sales volumes for the year 2017 are expected to approximate 3.7 billion pounds of copper, 1.6 million ounces of gold and 93
million pounds of molybdenum, including 940 million pounds of copper, 375 thousand ounces of gold and 22 million pounds of
molybdenum in third-quarter 2017. Estimated sales volumes for the year 2017 are lower than April 2017 estimates by approximately
150 million pounds of copper and 320 thousand ounces of gold, principally attributable to lower mining rates in the Grasberg open
pit associated with reduced manpower levels and modifications to the ramp-up schedule for the Deep Mill Level Zone (DMLZ)
underground mine. These shortfalls are expected to be recovered in future periods. Efforts are under way to increase mining rates
in the Grasberg open pit to benefit from the high-grade ore currently available to be mined. Refer to page 6 for a discussion of
Indonesia Regulatory Matters, which may have a significant impact on future results.
Consolidated Unit Costs
Consolidated average unit net cash costs (net of by-product credits) for FCX's copper mines of $1.20 per pound of copper in
second-quarter 2017 were lower than unit net cash costs of $1.33 per pound in second-quarter 2016, primarily reflecting higher
by-product credits, partly offset by lower copper sales volumes.
Assuming average prices of $1,250 per ounce of gold and $7.50 per pound of molybdenum for the second half of 2017 and
achievement of current sales volume and cost estimates, consolidated unit net cash costs (net of by-product credits) for copper
mines are expected to average $1.19 per pound of copper for the year 2017. The impact of price changes for the second half of 2017
on consolidated unit net cash costs would approximate $0.015 per pound for each $50 per ounce change in the average price of gold
and $0.01 per pound for each $2 per pound change in the average price of molybdenum. Quarterly unit net cash costs vary with
fluctuations in sales volumes and realized prices, primarily for gold and molybdenum.
MINING OPERATIONS
North America Copper Mines. FCX operates seven open-pit copper mines in North America - Morenci, Bagdad, Safford,
Sierrita and Miami in Arizona, and Chino and Tyrone in New Mexico. In addition to copper, molybdenum concentrate, gold and silver
are also produced by certain of FCX's North America copper mines.
All of the North America mining operations are wholly owned, except for Morenci. FCX records its 72 percent undivided joint
venture interest in Morenci using the proportionate consolidation method.
Operating and Development Activities. FCX has significant undeveloped reserves and resources in North America and a
portfolio of potential long-term development projects. Future investments will be undertaken based on the results of economic and
technical feasibility studies, and are dependent on market conditions. FCX continues to evaluate opportunities to reduce the
capital intensity of its long-term development projects.
Through exploration drilling, FCX has identified a significant resource at the Lone Star project located near the Safford
operation in eastern Arizona. Initial production from the Lone Star oxide ores could begin in 2021 using existing
infrastructure to replace oxide production from Safford. FCX is seeking regulatory approvals for this project and continues to
evaluate longer term opportunities available from the significant sulfide potential in the Lone Star/Safford minerals
district.
Operating Data. Following is summary consolidated operating data for the North America copper mines for the second
quarters and first six months of 2017 and 2016:

North America's consolidated copper sales volumes of 408 million pounds in second-quarter 2017 were lower than second-quarter
2016 sales of 464 million pounds, primarily reflecting lower ore grades. North America copper sales are estimated to approximate
1.5 billion pounds for the year 2017, compared with 1.8 billion pounds in 2016.
Average unit net cash costs (net of by-product credits) for the North America copper mines of $1.53 per pound of copper in
second-quarter 2017 were higher than unit net cash costs of $1.40 per pound in second-quarter 2016, primarily reflecting lower
sales volumes, partly offset by higher by-product credits.
Average unit net cash costs (net of by-product credits) for the North America copper mines are expected to approximate $1.54 per
pound of copper for the year 2017, based on achievement of current sales volume and cost estimates and assuming an average
molybdenum price of $7.50 per pound for the second half of 2017. North America's average unit net cash costs for the year 2017
would change by approximately $0.02 per pound for each $2 per pound change in the average price of molybdenum.
South America Mining. FCX operates two copper mines in South America - Cerro Verde in Peru (in which FCX owns a 53.56
percent interest) and El Abra in Chile (in which FCX owns a 51 percent interest). These operations are consolidated in FCX's
financial statements. In addition to copper, the Cerro Verde mine produces molybdenum concentrate and silver.
Operating and Development Activities. The Cerro Verde expansion project commenced operations in September 2015 and
achieved capacity operating rates during first-quarter 2016. Cerro Verde's expanded operations benefit from its large-scale,
long-lived reserves and cost efficiencies. The project expanded the concentrator facilities from 120,000 metric tons of ore per day
to 360,000 metric tons of ore per day.
In the second half of 2015, FCX adjusted operations at its El Abra mine to reduce mining and stacking rates by approximately 50
percent to achieve lower operating and labor costs, defer capital expenditures and extend the life of the existing operations. El
Abra continues to operate at reduced rates.
FCX continues to evaluate a potential large-scale milling operation at El Abra to process additional sulfide material and to
achieve higher recoveries. Exploration results at El Abra indicate a significant sulfide resource, which could potentially support
a major mill project. Future investments will depend on technical studies, economic factors and market conditions.
Operating Data. Following is summary consolidated operating data for the South America mining operations for the second
quarters and first six months of 2017 and 2016:

South America's consolidated copper sales volumes of 287 million pounds in second-quarter 2017 were lower than second-quarter
2016 sales of 327 million pounds primarily reflecting lower mining rates, ore grades and recoveries. Sales from South America
mining are expected to approximate 1.2 billion pounds of copper for the year 2017, compared with 1.3 billion pounds of copper in
2016.
Average unit net cash costs (net of by-product credits) for South America mining of $1.65 per pound of copper in second-quarter
2017 were higher than unit net cash costs of $1.31 per pound in second-quarter 2016, primarily reflecting lower sales volumes and
higher maintenance costs. Average unit net cash costs (net of by-product credits) for South America mining are expected to
approximate $1.65 per pound of copper for the year 2017, based on current sales volume and cost estimates and assuming an average
price of $7.50 per pound of molybdenum for the second half of 2017.
Indonesia Mining. Through its 90.64 percent owned and consolidated subsidiary PT-FI, FCX's assets include one of the
world's largest copper and gold deposits at the Grasberg minerals district in Papua, Indonesia. PT-FI operates a proportionately
consolidated joint venture, which produces copper concentrate that contains significant quantities of gold and silver.
Regulatory Matters. In January and February 2017, the Indonesian government issued new regulations to address the export
of unrefined metals, including copper concentrate and anode slimes, and other matters related to the mining sector. The new
regulations permit the continuation of copper concentrate exports for a five-year period through January 2022, subject to various
conditions, including conversion from a contract of work to a special operating license (known as an IUPK, which does not provide
the same level of fiscal and legal protections as PT-FI's Contract of Work (COW), which remains in effect), a commitment to the
completion of smelter construction in five years and payment of export duties to be determined by the Ministry of Finance. In
addition, the new regulations enable application for an extension of operating rights five years before expiration of the IUPK and
require foreign IUPK holders to divest a 51 percent interest in the licensed entity to Indonesian interests no later than the tenth
year of production. Export licenses would be valid for one-year periods, subject to review every six months, depending on smelter
construction progress.
Following the issuance of the January and February 2017 regulations and discussions with the Indonesian government, PT-FI
advised the government that it was prepared to convert its COW to an IUPK, subject to obtaining an investment stability agreement
providing contractual rights with the same level of legal and fiscal certainty enumerated under its COW, and provided that the COW
would remain in effect until it is replaced by a mutually satisfactory alternative. PT-FI also committed to commence construction
of a new smelter during a five-year time frame, subject to approval of the extension of its long-term operating rights.
In mid-February 2017, pursuant to the COW's dispute resolution provisions, PTFI provided formal notice to the Indonesian
government of an impending dispute listing the government's breaches and violations of the COW. PT-FI continues to reserve its
rights under these provisions.
As a result of the 2017 regulatory restrictions and uncertainties regarding long-term investment stability, PT-FI has taken
actions to adjust its cost structure, slow investments in its underground development projects and new smelter, and place certain
of its workforce on furlough programs.
In late March 2017, the Indonesian government amended the regulations to enable PT-FI to retain its COW until replaced with an
IUPK accompanied by an investment stability agreement, and to grant PT-FI a temporary IUPK through October 10, 2017, that would
allow concentrate exports to resume during this period. In April 2017, PT-FI entered into a Memorandum of Understanding with the
Indonesian government confirming that the COW would continue to be valid and honored until replaced by a mutually agreed IUPK and
investment stability agreement. PT-FI agreed to continue to pay a five percent export duty during this period.
On April 21, 2017, the Indonesian government issued a permit to PT-FI that allows exports to resume for a six-month period, and
PT-FI commenced export shipments.
PT-FI and the Indonesian government are now engaged in active negotiations on the conversion of PT-FI's COW to an IUPK
accompanied by an investment stability agreement with the objective of providing a mutually acceptable long-term investment
framework. In addition to negotiating a stability agreement, the parties are also discussing requirements for the construction of a
new smelter and the government's request for divestment.
PT-FI and the Indonesian government are working cooperatively with the objective of reaching a mutually acceptable long-term
resolution during 2017 to secure PT-FI's long-term investments for the benefit of all stakeholders.
Operating and Development Activities. PT-FI is currently mining the final phase of the Grasberg open pit, which contains
high copper and gold ore grades. PT-FI expects to mine high-grade ore over the next several quarters prior to transitioning to the
Grasberg Block Cave underground mine in early 2019.
PT-FI has several projects in the Grasberg minerals district related to the development of its large-scale, long-lived,
high-grade underground ore bodies. In aggregate, these underground ore bodies are expected to produce large-scale quantities of
copper and gold following the transition from the Grasberg open pit. As a result of regulatory uncertainty, PT-FI has slowed
investments in its underground development projects in 2017. Assuming an agreement is reached to support PT-FI's long-term
investment plans, estimated annual capital spending on these projects would average $1.0 billion per year ($0.8 billion per year
net to PT-FI) over the next five years. Considering the long-term nature and size of these projects, actual costs could vary from
these estimates. In response to market conditions and Indonesian regulatory uncertainty, timing of these expenditures continues to
be reviewed. If PT-FI is unable to reach agreement with the Indonesian government on its long-term mining rights, FCX intends to
reduce or defer investments significantly in its underground development projects and pursue arbitration under its COW.

Beginning in mid-April 2017, PT-FI experienced a high level of worker absenteeism, which has unfavorably impacted mining and
milling rates. During May 2017, a significant number of employees and contractors participated in an illegal strike and did not
respond to PT-FI's multiple summons to return to work. As a result, these workers were deemed to have voluntarily resigned pursuant
to Indonesian laws and regulations. During second-quarter 2017, PT-FI took steps to mitigate the impacts of worker absenteeism,
including producing from available mine and mill stockpiles and selling concentrate in inventory produced in first-quarter 2017.
PT-FI is also taking steps to increase its workforce in order to restore normal operating rates.
In June 2017, production from the DMLZ underground mine, which is currently being developed, was impacted by mining-induced
seismic activity. Mining-induced seismic activity is not uncommon in block cave mining. To mitigate the impact of these events,
PT-FI has adjusted the DMLZ mine plans while it evaluates the appropriate start-up schedule. PT-FI expects DMLZ to ramp up to full
capacity of 80,000 metric tons of ore per day in 2021, but at a slower pace than previous estimates.
PT-FI is also evaluating opportunities to mine a section of high-grade ore from the Grasberg open pit in 2018 and 2019 currently
planned to be mined in future periods from the Grasberg Block Cave underground mine. These plans are expected to be evaluated
through the remainder of 2017.
Indonesia's consolidated sales of 247 million pounds of copper and 427 thousand ounces of gold in second-quarter 2017 were
higher than second-quarter 2016 sales of 196 million pounds of copper and 151 thousand ounces of gold, primarily reflecting the
sale of concentrate in inventory and higher ore grades, partly offset by lower mill rates.
Assuming achieving planned operating rates for the second half of 2017, consolidated sales volumes from Indonesia mining are
expected to approximate 1.0 billion pounds of copper and 1.6 million ounces of gold for the year 2017, compared with 1.1 billion
pounds of copper and 1.1 million ounces of gold for the year 2016.
A significant portion of PT-FI's costs are fixed and unit costs vary depending on production volumes and other factors.
Indonesia's unit net cash costs (including gold and silver credits) of $0.13 per pound of copper in second-quarter 2017 were lower
than unit net cash costs of $1.20 per pound in second-quarter 2016, primarily reflecting higher gold and silver credits.
Assuming an average gold price of $1,250 per ounce for the second half of 2017 and achievement of current sales volume and cost
estimates, unit net cash costs (net of gold and silver credits) for Indonesia mining are expected to approximate $0.13 per pound of
copper for the year 2017. Indonesia mining's unit net cash credits for the year 2017 would change by approximately $0.05 per pound
for each $50 per ounce change in the average price of gold. Because of the fixed nature of a large portion of Indonesia's costs,
unit costs vary from quarter to quarter depending on copper and gold volumes.
Indonesia mining's projected sales volumes are dependent on a number of factors, including operational performance, workforce
productivity, the timing of shipments and its ability to continue to export copper concentrate.
Molybdenum Mines. FCX has two wholly owned molybdenum mines in North America - the Henderson underground mine and the
Climax open-pit mine, both in Colorado. The Henderson and Climax mines produce high-purity, chemical-grade molybdenum concentrate,
which is typically further processed into value-added molybdenum chemical products. The majority of molybdenum concentrate produced
at the Henderson and Climax mines, as well as from FCX's North America and South America copper mines, is processed at FCX's
conversion facilities.
Operating and Development Activities. In response to market conditions, the Henderson molybdenum mine continues to
operate at reduced rates. Production from the Molybdenum mines totaled 8 million pounds of molybdenum in second-quarter 2017 and 7
million pounds in second-quarter 2016. Refer to summary operating data on page 3 for FCX's consolidated molybdenum sales, which
includes sales of molybdenum produced at the Molybdenum mines, and from FCX's North America and South America copper mines.
Average unit net cash costs for the Molybdenum mines of $7.81 per pound of molybdenum in second-quarter 2017 approximated
second-quarter 2016 costs. Based on current sales volume and cost estimates, unit net cash costs for the Molybdenum mines are
expected to average approximately $7.85 per pound of molybdenum for the year 2017.
For a reconciliation of unit net cash costs per pound to production and delivery costs applicable to sales reported in FCX's
consolidated financial statements, refer to the supplemental schedules, "Product Revenues and Production Costs," beginning on page
XIII, which are available on FCX's website, "fcx.com."
Mining Exploration Activities. FCX's mining exploration activities are generally associated with its existing mines,
focusing on opportunities to expand reserves and resources to support development of additional future production capacity.
Exploration results continue to indicate opportunities for significant future potential reserve additions in North America and
South America. Exploration spending continues to be constrained by market conditions and is expected to approximate $70 million for
the year 2017, compared to $44 million in 2016.
CASH FLOWS, CASH and DEBT
Operating Cash Flows. FCX generated operating cash flows of $1.0 billion (including $144 million in working capital
sources and changes in tax payments) in second-quarter 2017 and $1.8 billion (including $322 million in working capital sources and
changes in tax payments) for the first six months of 2017.
Based on current sales volume and cost estimates, and assuming average prices of $2.65 per pound of copper, $1,250 per ounce of
gold and $7.50 per pound of molybdenum for the second half of 2017, FCX's consolidated operating cash flows are estimated to
approximate $3.8 billion for the year 2017 (including $0.6 billion in working capital sources and tax payments). The impact of
price changes during the second half of 2017 on operating cash flows would approximate $180 million for each $0.10 per pound change
in the average price of copper, $40 million for each $50 per ounce change in the average price of gold and $40 million for each $2
per pound change in the average price of molybdenum. Refer to page 6 for discussion of Indonesian Regulatory Matters, which may
have a significant impact on future results.
Capital Expenditures. Capital expenditures totaled $362 million for second-quarter 2017 (including approximately $210
million for major mining projects) and $706 million for the first six months of 2017 (including approximately $420 million for
major mining projects). Capital expenditures are expected to approximate $1.6 billion for the year 2017, including $0.9 billion for
major mining projects, primarily for underground development activities at Grasberg.
As a result of regulatory uncertainty, PT-FI has slowed investments in its underground development projects. If PT-FI is unable
to reach an agreement with the Indonesian government on its long-term mining rights, FCX intends to reduce or defer investments
significantly in underground development projects and pursue arbitration under its COW.

ADJUSTED NET INCOME (LOSS)
|
| |
|
Adjusted net income (loss) is intended to provide investors and others with information about FCX's
recurring operating performance. This information differs from net income (loss) attributable to common stock determined in
accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) and should not be considered in isolation or as a
substitute for measures of performance determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP. FCX's adjusted net income (loss) follows,
which may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies (in millions, except per share
amounts).

million in selling, general and administrative expenses.
|

potential $150 million in contingent consideration related to the December 2016 onshore California sale, which totaled $21
million at June 30, 2017, and in accordance with accounting guidelines, will continue to be adjusted through December 31,
2020. Second-quarter 2016 reflects gains associated with the sales of a 13 percent undivided interest in the Morenci
unincorporated joint venture and an interest in the Timok exploration project in Serbia.

| |
|
d. Refer to “Income Taxes,” on page IX, for further discussion of net tax
charges.
|
|
|
|
e. The second-quarter 2017 gain primarily reflects an adjustment to the
estimated fair value of the potential $120 million in contingent consideration related to the November 2016 sale of FCX’s
interest in TFHL, which totaled $55 million at June 30, 2017, and in accordance with accounting guidelines, will continue to
be adjusted through December 31, 2019. Second-quarter 2016 reflects the estimated loss on the sale of FCX’s interest in
TFHL.
