Responsible Production
The Copper Mark. FCX is committed to validating all of its copper producing sites with The Copper Mark, a comprehensive assurance framework designed to demonstrate the copper industry's responsible production practices. To achieve The Copper Mark, each site is required to complete an external assurance process to assess conformance with 32 environmental, social and governance requirements. In fourth-quarter 2021, FCX achieved the Copper Mark at Bagdad. To date, FCX has a total of seven sites that have been validated (Bagdad, Morenci, Miami, El Paso, Cerro Verde, El Abra and Atlantic Copper), and FCX has commenced The Copper Mark assessment process at four additional sites in North America, specifically Chino, Tyrone, Safford and Sierrita.
International Council of Mining and Metals (ICMM). FCX is a founding and active member of the ICMM, an international organization dedicated to safe, fair and sustainable mining. FCX commits to implementing ICMM's Mining Principles which serve as a best practice framework on sustainable development for the global mining and metals industry. Richard Adkerson, FCX’s Chairman and CEO, serves as the current Chair of ICMM.
Consolidated Sales Volumes
Fourth-quarter 2021 copper sales of 1.02 billion pounds approximated the October 2021 estimate of 1.025 billion pounds of copper. Fourth-quarter 2021 copper sales were higher than fourth-quarter 2020 sales of 866 million pounds of copper, primarily reflecting the ramp-up of underground mining at PT-FI and higher milling rates in North America and South America.
Fourth-quarter 2021 gold sales of 395 thousand ounces were 5 percent above the October 2021 estimate of 375 thousand ounces of gold, primarily reflecting higher throughput rates. Fourth-quarter 2021 gold sales were higher than fourth-quarter 2020 sales of 293 thousand ounces, primarily reflecting the ramp-up of underground mining at PT-FI.
Fourth-quarter 2021 molybdenum sales of 19 million pounds were lower than the October 2021 estimate of 22 million pounds and fourth-quarter 2020 sales of 21 million pounds, primarily reflecting timing of shipments.
foremost_inxcopperx2022xnra.jpg

page2header2022a.jpg
Consolidated sales volumes for the year 2022 are expected to approximate 4.3 billion pounds of copper, 1.6 million ounces of gold and 80 million pounds of molybdenum, including 970 million pounds of copper, 380 thousand ounces of gold and 20 million pounds of molybdenum in first-quarter 2022. Projected sales volumes are dependent on operational performance, weather-related conditions, timing of shipments and other factors detailed in the Cautionary Statement below.
Consolidated Unit Net Cash Costs
Consolidated average unit net cash costs (net of by-product credits) for FCX's copper mines of $1.29 per pound of copper in fourth-quarter 2021, were higher than the October 2021 estimate of $1.26 per pound, primarily reflecting nonrecurring labor-related charges at Cerro Verde for collective labor agreements, and approximated the fourth-quarter 2020 average of $1.28 per pound.
Assuming average prices of $1,800 per ounce of gold and $19.00 per pound of molybdenum for 2022 and achievement of current sales volume and cost estimates, consolidated unit net cash costs (net of by-product credits) for FCX's copper mines are expected to average $1.35 per pound of copper for the year 2022 (including $1.35 per pound of copper in first-quarter 2022). The impact of price changes on 2022 consolidated unit net cash costs would approximate $0.03 per pound of copper for each $100 per ounce change in the average price of gold and $0.02 per pound of copper 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 (including Lone Star), Sierrita and Miami in Arizona, and Chino and Tyrone in New Mexico. In addition to copper, certain of these mines produce molybdenum concentrate, gold and silver. 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 substantial reserves and future opportunities in the United States (U.S.), primarily associated with existing mining operations. Current operations at the Lone Star copper leach project, which was completed in the second half of 2020, are exceeding the initial design capacity of 200 million pounds annually and produced approximately 235 million pounds of copper in 2021. FCX continues to advance opportunities to increase Lone Star operating rates and is advancing plans to increase volumes to achieve 300 million pounds of copper per year from oxide ores. The oxide project advances the opportunity for development of the large-scale sulfide resources at Lone Star. FCX is increasing exploration in the area to support metallurgical testing and mine development planning for a potential long-term investment in a concentrator.
FCX is also evaluating an expansion of the Bagdad operation in northwest Arizona and is engaging stakeholders. Feasibility studies to double Bagdad's operating rates are expected to commence in 2022.
FCX continues to advance initiatives to recover additional copper from its large existing leach stockpiles. There are several initiatives ongoing across FCX's Americas footprint which incorporate new applications, technologies and data analytics. Initial results are encouraging and support additional work on these emerging opportunities.

c.Excludes charges totaling $0.02 per pound of copper primarily associated with the April 2020 revised operating plans (including employee separation costs) and the COVID-19 pandemic (including health and safety costs).
FCX's consolidated copper sales volumes from North America of 364 million pounds in fourth-quarter 2021 were higher than fourth-quarter 2020 copper sales volumes of 320 million pounds, primarily reflecting the successful ramp-up of production from Lone Star and the restart of mining and milling operations at Chino. North America copper sales are estimated to approximate 1.55 billion pounds for the year 2022.
Average unit net cash costs (net of by-product credits) for the North America copper mines of $1.90 per pound of copper in fourth-quarter 2021 were higher than fourth-quarter 2020 unit net cash costs of $1.76 per pound, primarily reflecting higher mining and milling costs associated with the return to pre-COVID-19 operating rates and higher maintenance and input costs, partly offset by higher sales volumes and by-product credits.
Average unit net cash costs (net of by-product credits) for the North America copper mines are expected to approximate $2.00 per pound of copper for the year 2022, based on achievement of current sales volume and cost estimates and assuming an average molybdenum price of $19.00 per pound. North America's average unit net cash costs for the year 2022 would change by approximately $0.04 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. Milling rates at Cerro Verde's concentrator facilities averaged 376,700 metric tons of ore per day in fourth-quarter 2021 and 380,300 metric tons of ore per day for the year 2021. Subject to ongoing monitoring of COVID-19 protocols, Cerro Verde is targeting milling rates to increase to approximately 400,000 metric tons of ore per day during 2022.
El Abra increased operating rates to pre-COVID-19 pandemic levels during 2021. Increased mining and stacking activities are expected to result in a 30 percent increase in El Abra copper production for the year 2022, compared with the year 2021.
FCX continues to evaluate a large-scale expansion at El Abra to process additional sulfide material and to achieve higher copper recoveries. El Abra's large sulfide resource could potentially support a major mill project similar to the facilities constructed at Cerro Verde in 2015. Technical and economic studies continue to be evaluated

Indonesia Mining. PT-FI operates one of the world’s largest copper and gold mines at the Grasberg minerals district in Papua, Indonesia. PT-FI produces copper concentrate that contains significant quantities of gold and silver. FCX has a 48.76 percent ownership interest in PT-FI and manages its mining operations. Under the terms of the shareholders agreement, FCX’s economic interest in PT-FI approximates 81 percent through 2022. PT-FI's results are consolidated in FCX's financial statements.
Operating and Development Activities. The ramp-up of underground production at PT-FI continues to advance on schedule. Fourth-quarter 2021 highlights include:
Achieved quarterly copper and gold volumes approximating 100 percent of the projected ultimate annualized levels discussed below.
21 new drawbells were constructed at the Grasberg Block Cave and Deep Mill Level Zone (DMLZ) underground mines, bringing cumulative open drawbells to 510.
Combined average production from the Grasberg Block Cave and DMLZ underground mines approximated 160,800 metric tons of ore per day and PT-FI's total milling rates averaged 181,000 metric tons of ore per day.
PT-FI expects milling rates to average approximately 180,000 metric tons of ore per day in 2022. The installation of additional milling facilities at PT-FI are in progress and are currently expected to be completed in 2023, which will increase milling capacity to approximately 240,000 metric tons of ore per day.
PT-FI expects average annual production of approximately 1.6 billion pounds of copper and 1.6 million ounces of gold for the next five years at an attractive unit net cash cost, providing significant margins and cash flows.
PT-FI's estimated capital spending on the Grasberg Block Cave and DMLZ underground projects for the year 2022 is expected to approximate $1.0 billion, net of scheduled contributions from PT Indonesia Asahan Aluminium (Persero) (PT Inalum, also known as MIND ID). PT-FI is also advancing construction of a dual-fuel power plant and upgrades to the mill circuit to improve recoveries. In accordance with applicable accounting guidance, the aggregate costs (before scheduled contributions from PT Inalum), expected to approximate $1.2 billion for the year 2022, will be reflected as an investing activity in FCX's cash flow statement and contributions from PT Inalum will be reflected as a financing activity.
Kucing Liar. In October 2021, PT-FI commenced long-term mine development activities for its Kucing Liar deposit, which is expected to produce over 6 billion pounds of copper and 5 million ounces of gold over the life of the project. Similar to PT-FI's experience with large-scale, block-cave mines, pre-production development activities will occur over an approximate 10-year timeframe. At full operating rates, annual production from Kucing Liar is expected to approximate 600 million pounds of copper and 500 thousand ounces of gold, providing PT-FI with sustained long-term, large-scale and low-cost production. Capital investments for Kucing Liar over the next 10 years are expected to average approximately $400 million per annum. Kucing Liar will benefit from substantial shared infrastructure and PT-FI's experience and long-term success in block-cave mining.
Indonesia Smelter. In connection with PT-FI’s 2018 agreement with the Indonesia government to secure the extension of its long-term mining rights, PT-FI committed to construct new domestic smelting capacity totaling 2 million metric tons of concentrate per year by December 2023. During 2020, PT-FI notified the Indonesia government of schedule delays resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic and continues to review with the government a revised schedule for satisfying its commitment.
PT-FI is actively engaged in the following projects for domestic smelting activities:
Construction of a new greenfield smelter in Gresik, Indonesia with a capacity to process approximately 1.7 million metric tons of copper concentrate per year. In July 2021, PT-FI awarded a construction contract with an estimated cost of $2.8 billion. During 2021, PT-FI progressed site preparation activities and expects engineering procurement and construction activities to advance during 2022 and 2023. The smelter construction is expected to be completed as soon as feasible in 2024, which is subject to potential pandemic-related disruptions and other factors.
Expansion of PT Smelting's (PT-FI's 39.5-percent owned copper smelter and refinery in Gresik, Indonesia) capacity by 30 percent to 1.3 million metric tons of concentrate per year, which is expected to be completed by the end of 2023. PT-FI completed agreements in November 2021 with the majority owner of PT Smelting to implement the expansion plans. PT-FI will fund the cost of the expansion, estimated to approximate $250
foremost_inxcopperx2022xnra.jpg

page2header2022a.jpg
million, and convert the loan to equity, increasing ownership in PT Smelting to a majority ownership interest once the expansion is complete.
Construction of a precious metals refinery (PMR) to process gold and silver from the new greenfield smelter and PT Smelting at an estimated cost of $250 million.
In July 2021, PT-FI entered into a $1.0 billion, five-year, unsecured bank credit facility to advance these projects. As of December 31, 2021, $443 million ($432 million net of debt issuance costs) was drawn under this facility. Additional debt financing is being evaluated to fund the projects, with the cost of debt shared 49 percent by FCX and 51 percent by PT Inalum.
Capital expenditures for the new greenfield smelter and PMR (collectively, the Indonesia smelter projects) totaled $0.2 billion for the year 2021, and are expected to approximate $1.4 billion for the year 2022. Construction of the new smelter capacity will result in the elimination of export duties, providing an offset to the economic cost associated with the Indonesia smelter projects.

a.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.
b.Excludes COVID-19 related costs (including one-time incremental employee benefits and health and safety costs) totaling $0.02 per pound of copper.
PT-FI's consolidated sales of 370 million pounds of copper and 392 thousand ounces of gold in fourth-quarter 2021 were higher than fourth-quarter 2020 consolidated sales of 286 million pounds of copper and 293 thousand ounces of gold, primarily reflecting the ramp-up of underground mining at PT-FI. Consolidated sales volumes from PT-FI are expected to approximate 1.6 billion pounds of copper and 1.6 million ounces of gold for the year 2022.
Because of the fixed nature of a large portion of PT-FI's costs, unit net cash costs depend on copper and gold volumes and gold prices. PT-FI's unit net cash costs (net of gold and silver credits) of $0.08 per pound of copper in fourth-quarter 2021 were lower than $0.18 per pound in fourth-quarter 2020, primarily reflecting higher copper and gold sales volumes.
Average unit net cash costs (net of gold and silver credits) for PT-FI are expected to approximate $0.18 per pound of copper for the year 2022, based on achievement of current sales volumes and cost estimates and assuming an average gold price of $1,800 per ounce. PT-FI's average unit net cash costs for the year 2022 would change by approximately $0.09 per pound of copper for each $100 per ounce change in the average price of gold.

Molybdenum Mines. FCX operates two wholly owned molybdenum mines in Colorado - the Henderson underground mine and the Climax open-pit mine. The Henderson and Climax mines produce high-purity molybdenum concentrate, which is typically further processed into value-added molybdenum chemical products. The majority of the molybdenum concentrate produced at the Henderson and Climax mines and at FCX's North America and South America copper mines is processed at FCX's conversion facilities.
Operating and Development Activities. Production from the molybdenum mines totaled 7 million pounds of molybdenum in fourth-quarter 2021 and 5 million pounds of molybdenum in fourth-quarter 2020. FCX plans to increase mining rates at the Climax mine in 2022 to provide options to increase volumes in response to market demand for molybdenum. FCX's consolidated molybdenum sales and average realized prices, which include sales of molybdenum produced at the Molybdenum mines and at FCX's North America and South America copper mines are presented on page 3.
Average unit net cash costs for the Molybdenum mines of $9.90 per pound of molybdenum in fourth-quarter 2021 were higher than average unit net cash costs of $9.23 per pound in fourth-quarter 2020, primarily reflecting increased costs associated with higher mining rates and higher maintenance and equipment costs. Based on current sales volume and cost estimates, average unit net cash costs for the Molybdenum mines are expected to approximate $12.50 per pound of molybdenum for the year 2022.
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.

EXPLORATION
FCX's mining exploration activities are primarily 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 at our existing properties in North America and South America. Exploration expenditures for the year 2022 are expected to approximate $110 million, compared with $50 million in 2021. FCX intends to increase its exploration expenditures during 2022 primarily to advance Lone Star and other opportunities at FCX's North America copper mines. FCX has long-lived reserves and a significant resource position in its existing portfolio.

PRELIMINARY ESTIMATED RECOVERABLE PROVEN AND PROBABLE MINERAL RESERVES AND MINERAL RESOURCES
FCX has significant mineral reserves, mineral resources and future development opportunities within its portfolio of mining assets. FCX's preliminary estimated consolidated recoverable proven and probable mineral reserves from its mines at December 31, 2021, include 107.2 billion pounds of copper, 27.1 million ounces of gold and 3.39 billion pounds of molybdenum, which were determined using metal price assumptions of $2.50 per pound for copper, $1,200 per ounce for gold and $10.00 per pound for molybdenum. The preliminary estimated recoverable proven and probable mineral reserves presented in the table below represent the estimated metal quantities from which FCX expects to be paid after application of estimated metallurgical recovery rates and smelter recovery rates, where applicable. Recoverable mineral reserve volumes are those which FCX estimates can be economically extracted or produced at the time of the mineral reserve determination.

Reserves at December 31, 2021107.2 27.1 3.39 
In addition to the preliminary estimated consolidated recoverable proven and probable mineral reserves, FCX's preliminary estimated mineral resources (including measured, indicated and inferred resources) at December 31, 2021, which were assessed using $3.00 per pound for copper, totaled 191 billion pounds of incremental contained copper. FCX continues to pursue opportunities to convert this material into mineral reserves, future production volumes and cash flow. See Cautionary Statement below.
CASH FLOWS, CASH AND DEBT
Operating Cash Flows. FCX generated operating cash flows of $2.3 billion (including $0.4 billion from working capital and other sources) in fourth-quarter 2021 and $7.7 billion (including $0.8 billion from working capital and other sources) for the year 2021.
Based on current sales volume and cost estimates, and assuming average prices of $4.50 per pound of copper, $1,800 per ounce of gold and $19.00 per pound of molybdenum, FCX's consolidated operating cash flows are estimated to approximate $8.0 billion (net of $1.3 billion of working capital and other uses) for the year 2022. The impact of price changes during 2022 on operating cash flows would approximate $365 million for each $0.10 per pound change in the average price of copper, $100 million for each $100 per ounce change in the average price of gold and $110 million for each $2 per pound change in the average price of molybdenum.
Capital Expenditures. Capital expenditures totaled $0.8 billion in fourth-quarter 2021 (including $0.3 billion for major mining projects and $0.1 billion for the Indonesia smelter projects) and $2.1 billion for the year 2021 (including $1.25 billion for major mining projects and $0.2 billion for the Indonesia smelter projects).
Capital expenditures for the year 2022 are expected to approximate $4.7 billion ($3.3 billion excluding the Indonesia smelter projects), including $2.0 billion for major mining projects ($1.4 billion for underground development activities associated with the Grasberg Block Cave and DMLZ and $0.6 billion for discretionary growth projects). Capital expenditures for the Indonesia smelter projects are currently being funded through PT-FI's $1.0 billion unsecured bank credit facility.

FCX's next senior note maturity is March 2023, with redemption rights at par in December 2022.

FINANCIAL POLICY
In February 2021, the Board adopted a financial policy for the allocation of cash flows aligned with FCX’s strategic objectives of maintaining a strong balance sheet and increasing cash returns to shareholders while advancing opportunities for future growth.
Following achievement of FCX’s net debt target in the range of $3.0 billion to $4.0 billion (excluding debt for additional smelting capacity in Indonesia), FCX announced in November 2021 the implementation of a performance-based shareholder returns policy, including the commencement of a $3.0 billion share repurchase program and expected base and variable dividends on common stock totaling $0.60 per share for 2022. The policy is being implemented to direct up to 50 percent of cash flows, after planned capital spending (excluding Indonesia smelter project investments) and distributions to noncontrolling interests, to shareholder returns with the balance available for investments in future value enhancing growth projects and further debt reductions. The Board will review the structure and the amount of performance-based payout framework at least annually.
On December 22, 2021, FCX declared dividends totaling $0.15 per share on its common stock (which included a $0.075 per share quarterly base cash dividend and a $0.075 per share quarterly variable cash dividend), which will be paid on February 1, 2022, to shareholders of record as of January 14, 2022. The declaration and payment of dividends (base or variable) is at the discretion of the Board and will depend on FCX's financial results, cash requirements, business prospects, global economic conditions and other factors deemed relevant by the Board.
Through January 25, 2022, FCX acquired 15.4 million shares of FCX's common stock for a total cost of $599.9 million ($39.03 per share) under its $3.0 billion share repurchase program, including 12.7 million shares for a total cost of $488.2 million ($38.32 per share) in fourth-quarter 2021. The timing and amount of share repurchases is at the discretion of management and will depend on a variety of factors. The share repurchase program may be modified, increased, suspended or terminated at any time at the Board’s discretion.

This press release also includes forward-looking statements regarding mineral resources not included in proven and probable mineral reserves. A mineral resource, which includes measured, indicated and inferred mineral resources, is a concentration or occurrence of material of economic interest in or on the Earth’s crust in such form, grade or quality, and quantity that there are reasonable prospects for economic extraction. Such a deposit cannot qualify as recoverable proven and probable mineral reserves until legal and economic feasibility are confirmed based upon a comprehensive evaluation of development and operating costs, grades, recoveries and other material factors. Accordingly, no assurance can be given that the estimated mineral resources will become proven and probable mineral reserves.
This press release also contains financial measures such as net debt, adjusted net income and unit net cash costs per pound of copper and molybdenum, which are not recognized under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. As required by SEC Regulation G, reconciliations of these measures to amounts reported in FCX’s consolidated financial statements are in the supplemental schedules of this press release.

Freeport-McMoRan Inc.
INCOME TAXES (continued)

g.In accordance with applicable accounting rules, FCX adjusts its interim provision for income taxes equal to its consolidated tax rate.
h.The year 2020 includes tax benefits of $53 million associated with the reversal of a year-end 2019 tax charge related to the sale of FCX's interest in the lower zone of the Timok exploration project in Serbia and $6 million associated with the removal of a valuation allowance on deferred tax assets.
i.The year 2020 includes tax charges of $21 million ($17 million net of noncontrolling interests) associated with establishing a tax reserve related to the treatment of prior-year contractor support costs and $8 million ($7 million net of noncontrolling interest) associated with an unfavorable 2012 Indonesia Supreme Court ruling.
j.FCX's consolidated effective income tax rate is a function of the combined effective tax rates for the jurisdictions in which FCX operates, excluding the U.S. jurisdiction.
Assuming achievement of current sales volume and cost estimates and average prices of $4.50 per pound for copper, $1,800 per ounce for gold and $19.00 per pound for molybdenum, FCX estimates its consolidated effective tax rate for the year 2022 would approximate 30 percent. Changes in projected sales volumes and average prices during 2022 would incur tax impacts at estimated effective rates of 39 percent for Peru, 38 percent for Indonesia and 0 percent for the U.S.

NET DEBT
Net debt, which FCX defines as consolidated debt less consolidated cash and cash equivalents, is intended to provide investors with information related to the performance-based payout framework in FCX’s financial policy, which requires achievement of a net debt target in the range of $3 billion to $4 billion (excluding project debt for additional smelting capacity in Indonesia). This information differs from consolidated debt determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for consolidated debt determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP. FCX's net debt, which may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies follows (in millions):

a.Includes $432 million, net of debt issuance costs, for the PT-FI Term Loan.

DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS
For the year 2021, FCX's mined copper was sold 59 percent in concentrate, 21 percent as cathode and 20 percent as rod from North America operations. Substantially all of FCX's copper concentrate and cathode sales contracts provide final copper pricing in a specified future month (generally one to four months from the shipment date) based primarily on quoted London Metal Exchange (LME) monthly average copper prices. FCX records revenues and invoices customers at the time of shipment based on then-current LME prices, which results in an embedded derivative on provisionally priced concentrate and cathode sales that is adjusted to fair value through earnings each period, using the period-end forward prices, until final pricing on the date of settlement. LME copper settlement prices averaged $4.40 per pound during fourth-quarter 2021 and settled at $4.40 per pound on December 31, 2021. Because a significant portion of FCX's copper concentrate and cathode sales in any quarterly period usually remain subject to final pricing, the quarter-end forward price is a major determinant of the average recorded copper price for the period. FCX's average realized copper price was $4.42 per pound in fourth-quarter 2021.

b.Reflects adjustments to provisionally priced copper sales for the years 2021 and 2020.
At December 31, 2021, FCX had provisionally priced copper sales at its copper mining operations totaling 397 million pounds of copper (net of intercompany sales and noncontrolling interests) recorded at an average price of $4.42 per pound, subject to final pricing over the next several months. FCX estimates that each $0.05 change in the price realized from the quarter-end provisional price would have an approximate $12 million effect on 2022 net income attributable to common stock. The LME copper price settled at $4.42 per pound on January 25, 2022.

DEFERRED PROFITS
FCX defers recognizing profits on sales from its mining operations to Atlantic Copper and on 39.5 percent of PT-FI's sales to PT Smelting (PT-FI's 39.5 percent-owned Indonesia smelting unit) until final sales to third parties occur. Changes in these deferrals attributable to variability in intercompany volumes resulted in net (reductions) additions to operating income totaling $(44) million ($(10) million to net income attributable to common stock) in fourth-quarter 2021 and $20 million ($20 million to net income attributable to common stock) in fourth-quarter 2020, $(188) million ($(106) million to net income attributable to common stock) for the year 2021 and $(7) million ($1 million to net income attributable to common stock) for the year 2020. FCX's net deferred profits on its inventories at Atlantic Copper and PT Smelting to be recognized in future periods' net income attributable to common stock totaled $175 million at December 31, 2021. Quarterly variations in ore grades, the timing of intercompany shipments and changes in product prices will result in variability in FCX's net deferred profits and quarterly earnings. Based on current estimates, FCX does not expect a significant change in its net deferred profits in first-quarter 2022.

BUSINESS SEGMENTS
FCX has organized its mining operations into four primary divisions – North America copper mines, South America mining, Indonesia mining and Molybdenum mines, and operating segments that meet certain thresholds are reportable segments. Separately disclosed in the following tables are FCX's reportable segments, which include the Morenci, Cerro Verde and Grasberg (Indonesia Mining) copper mines, the Rod & Refining operations and Atlantic Copper Smelting & Refining.
Intersegment sales between FCX’s business segments are based on terms similar to arms-length transactions with third parties at the time of the sale. Intersegment sales may not be reflective of the actual prices ultimately realized because of a variety of factors, including additional processing, the timing of sales to unaffiliated customers and transportation premiums.
FCX allocates certain operating costs, expenses and capital expenditures to its operating divisions and individual segments. However, not all costs and expenses applicable to an operation are allocated. U.S. federal and state income taxes are recorded and managed at the corporate level (included in Corporate, Other & Eliminations), whereas foreign income taxes are recorded and managed at the applicable country level. In addition, most mining exploration and research activities are managed on a consolidated basis, and those costs along with some selling, general and administrative costs, are not allocated to the operating divisions or individual segments. Accordingly, the following segment information reflects management determinations that may not be indicative of what the actual financial performance of each operating division or segment would be if it was an independent entity.

Freeport-McMoRan Inc.
PRODUCT REVENUES AND PRODUCTION COSTS

Unit net cash costs per pound of copper and molybdenum are measures intended to provide investors with information about the cash-generating capacity of FCX's mining operations expressed on a basis relating to the primary metal product for the respective operations. FCX uses this measure for the same purpose and for monitoring operating performance by its mining operations. This information differs from measures of performance determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of performance determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP. These measures are presented by other metals mining companies, although FCX's measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies.
FCX presents gross profit per pound of copper in the following tables using both a “by-product” method and a “co-product” method. FCX uses the by-product method in its presentation of gross profit per pound of copper because (i) the majority of its revenues are copper revenues, (ii) it mines ore, which contains copper, gold, molybdenum and other metals, (iii) it is not possible to specifically assign all of FCX's costs to revenues from the copper, gold, molybdenum and other metals it produces and (iv) it is the method used by FCX's management and Board of Directors to monitor FCX's mining operations and to compare mining operations in certain industry publications. In the co-product method presentations, shared costs are allocated to the different products based on their relative revenue values, which will vary to the extent FCX's metals sales volumes and realized prices change.
FCX shows revenue adjustments for prior period open sales as a separate line item. Because these adjustments do not result from current period sales, these amounts have been reflected separately from revenues on current period sales. Noncash and other costs, which are removed from site production and delivery costs in the calculation of unit net cash costs, consist of items such as stock-based compensation costs, long-lived asset impairments, idle facility costs, restructuring and/or unusual charges. As discussed above, gold, molybdenum and other metal revenues at copper mines are reflected as credits against site production and delivery costs in the by-product method. The following schedules are presentations under both the by-product and co-product methods together with reconciliations to amounts reported in FCX's consolidated financial statements.
