Latest analysis

FCX posts $7.5B Q3 2026 revenue on 40% higher copper prices while approving $4.5B Bagdad expansion and advancing Indonesia mine ramp-up.

Freeport-McMoRan delivered Q3 2026 revenues of $7.5 billion and net income attributable to common stockholders of $1.2 billion, both materially above Q3 2025, driven by copper prices averaging $6.48/lb on COMEX — a 40% year-over-year increase — that more than offset lower Indonesia volumes during the Grasberg Block Cave ramp-up. The Board approved a $4.5 billion Bagdad expansion in November 2026 that would more than double mining and milling rates and position Bagdad as the second-largest U.S. copper mine by mid-2030. A new FCPA investigation disclosure related to PT Smelting — a joint venture with Mitsubishi Materials Corporation — was added to the risk factor update and remains unresolved despite the SEC declining enforcement.
