a. Includes a tax credit of $31 million ($16 million net of noncontrolling interest), primarily associated with completion of Cerro Verde’s 2016 tax audit. b. Includes net tax benefits totaling $83 million ($66 million net of noncontrolling interest), consisting of $69 million associated with the release of a portion of the valuation allowances recorded against PT Rio Tinto Indonesia (PT RTI) net operating losses (NOLs) and $24 million primarily associated with the reversal of a tax reserve related to the treatment of prior year contractor support costs, partly offset by a tax charge of $10 million associated with the audit of PT Freeport Indonesia’s (PT-FI) 2019 tax returns. FCX’s consolidated effective income tax rate was 33 percent for the first nine months of 2022 and 29 percent for the first nine months of 2021. Variations in the relative proportions of jurisdictional income result in fluctuations to FCX’s consolidated effective income tax rate. Because of its U.S. tax position, FCX does not record a financial statement impact for income or losses generated in the U.S. On August 16, 2022, the U.S. Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 (the Inflation Reduction Act) was signed into law, which includes, among other provisions, (i) a new corporate alternative minimum tax of 15 percent on the adjusted financial statement income (AFSI) of corporations with average AFSI exceeding $1.0 billion over a three-year period, and (ii) a new excise tax of 1 percent on the fair market value of net corporate stock repurchases. The provisions of the Inflation Reduction Act are effective for tax years beginning after December 31, 2022. FCX continues to analyze the impacts of the Inflation Reduction Act on its future results of operations.
