PHOENIX--(BUSINESS WIRE)--
Freeport-McMoRan Inc. (NYSE: FCX):
-
Net income attributable to common stock totaled $268 million,
$0.18 per share, for second-quarter 2017. After adjusting for net
gains of $27 million, $0.01 per share, second-quarter 2017 adjusted
net income attributable to common stock totaled $241 million, $0.17
per share.
-
Consolidated sales totaled 942 million pounds of copper, 432
thousand ounces of gold and 25 million pounds of molybdenum for
second-quarter 2017.
-
Consolidated sales 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 for third-quarter 2017.
-
Average realized prices were $2.65 per pound for copper, $1,243
per ounce for gold and $9.58 per pound for molybdenum for
second-quarter 2017.
-
Average unit net cash costs were $1.20 per pound of copper for
second-quarter 2017 and are expected to average $1.19 per pound of
copper for the year 2017.
-
Operating cash flows totaled $1.0 billion (including $144
million in working capital sources and changes in tax payments) for
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 for copper, $1,250 per
ounce for gold and $7.50 per pound for molybdenum for the second half
of 2017, operating cash flows for the year 2017 are expected to
approximate $3.8 billion (including $0.6 billion in working capital
sources and changes in tax payments).
-
Capital expenditures totaled $362 million (including
approximately $210 million for major mining projects) for
second-quarter 2017 and $706 million for the first six months of 2017
(including approximately $420 million for major mining projects).
Capital expenditures for the year 2017 are expected to approximate
$1.6 billion, including $0.7 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, "fcx.com,"
for additional information.
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.

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.

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).

a. Includes $82 million in production and
delivery costs and $5 million in selling, general and
administrative expenses.
|
|
b. Reflects adjustments to the fair value of
the contingent payments related to the 2016 drillship settlements.
The 12-month contingency period associated with the drillship
settlements ended June 30, 2017, and no additional amounts were
paid.
|
|
c. Net gains in second-quarter 2017 primarily
reflect an adjustment of $13 million to assets held for sale,
partly offset by a net charge of $2 million to adjust the
estimated fair value of the 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.
|
|
f. Per share amount does not foot down
because of rounding.
