(FMPO) operates through its 99.8 percent interest in FM Properties Operating Co. (the Partnership), with 0.2 percent owned by the Managing General Partner, Freeport-McMoRan Inc. (FTX). FTX and Freeport-McMoRan Copper & Gold Inc. (FCX) guarantee the Partnership's debt. During 1996, following discussions with the staff of the Securities and Exchange Commission, FMPO determined that, because of the rights that FTX retains in connection with its guarantee of the Partnership's debt, it would be more appropriate to reflect its interest in the Partnership under the equity basis of accounting (prior year consolidated financial information has been restated to reflect this presentation). However, if the guarantees are eliminated, FMPO will have the authority to remove FTX as the Managing General Partner and FTX's rights with respect to the Partnership and FMPO would be eliminated. FMPO has no significant operations or source of funds other than its interest in the Partnership. The Partnership's financial statements follow: BALANCE SHEETS March 31, December 31, 1996 1995 ---------- ---------- ASSETS (In Thousands) Current assets: Cash and cash equivalents $ 711 $ 2,282 Accounts receivable and other 4,433 4,318 ---------- ---------- Total current assets 5,144 6,600 Real estate and facilities, net 170,534 180,040 Other assets 6,726 5,165 ---------- ---------- Total assets $ 182,404 $ 191,805 ========== ========== LIABILITIES AND PARTNERS' CAPITAL Current liabilities: Accounts payable and accrued liabilities $ 4,858 $ 8,100 Amounts due to FMPO 1,709 1,505 Current portion of long-term debt 29,294 - ---------- ---------- Total current liabilities 35,861 9,605 Long-term debt 87,000 121,294 Other liabilities 3,894 4,392 Partners' capital 55,649 56,514 ---------- ---------- Total liabilities and partners' capital $ 182,404 $ 191,805 ========== ========== STATEMENTS OF OPERATIONS Three Months Ended March 31, ------------------------ 1996 1995 ---------- ---------- (In Thousands) Revenues $ 13,829 $ 4,382 Costs and expenses: Cost of sales 13,313 5,870 General and administrative expenses 607 470 ---------- ---------- Total costs and expenses 13,920 6,340 ---------- ---------- Operating loss (91) (1,958) Interest expense, net (734) (184) Other income (expense), net (40) 11 ---------- ---------- Net loss $ (865) $ (2,131) ========== ========== 5 STATEMENTS OF CASH FLOW Three Months Ended March 31, ------------------------ 1996 1995 ---------- ---------- (In Thousands) Cash flow from operating activities: Net loss $ (865) $ (2,131) Adjustments to reconcile net loss to net cash provided by operating activities: Cost of real estate sales and depreciation and amortization 12,128 2,268 (Increase) decrease in working capital: Accounts receivable and other (1,615) (608) Accounts payable and accrued liabilities (3,553) 2,128 ---------- ---------- Net cash provided by operating activities 6,095 1,657 ---------- ---------- Cash flow from investing activities: Real estate and facilities (a) (2,606) (5,721) ---------- ---------- Net cash used in investing activities (2,606) (5,721) ---------- ---------- Cash flow from financing activities: Proceeds from debt 1,000 4,000 Repayment of debt (6,000) - ---------- ---------- Net cash provided by (used in) financing activities (5,000) 4,000 ---------- ---------- Net decrease in cash and cash equivalents (1,511) (64) Cash and cash equivalents at beginning of year 2,282 1,200 ---------- ---------- Cash and cash equivalents at end of period $ 771 $ 1,136 ========== ========== a.

The information furnished herein reflects all adjustments which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair statement of the results for the periods. All such adjustments are, in the opinion of management, of a normal recurring nature. 6 Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations. OVERVIEW FM Properties Inc. (FMPO) operates through its 99.8 percent interest in FM Properties Operating Co. (the Partnership), with 0.2 percent owned by the Managing General Partner, Freeport-McMoRan Inc. (FTX). FTX and Freeport-McMoRan Copper & Gold Inc. (FCX) guarantee the Partnership's debt. During 1996, following discussions with the staff of the Securities and Exchange Commission, FMPO determined that, because of the rights that FTX retains in connection with its guarantee of the Partnership's debt, it would be more appropriate to reflect its interest in the Partnership under the equity basis of accounting (prior year consolidated financial information has been restated to reflect this presentation). However, if the guarantees are eliminated, FMPO will have the authority to remove FTX as the Managing General Partner and FTX's rights with respect to the Partnership and FMPO would be eliminated. During the quarter, the Partnership began to capitalize on the enhanced sales opportunities at its Austin, Texas property holdings that resulted from a series of legislative and judicial developments which occurred in 1995 (discussed in FMPO's 1995 Annual Report to Stockholders). The Partnership completed a $1.9 million sale of a 25 acre undeveloped tract within the Barton Creek Development, its first under the Water Quality Protection Zone legislation enacted in late 1995. Subsequent to the end of the first quarter, the Partnership sold a second undeveloped tract totaling 79 acres for $2.9 million. Selling undeveloped tracts to sub-developers is an integral part of FMPO's business strategy for the Barton Creek Development, as these transactions provide funds to reduce debt, lower future carrying and development costs and establish values for the Partnership's remaining properties within Barton Creek. The Partnership's intensified marketing efforts to sell its Dallas, Houston and San Antonio properties resulted in first-quarter 1996 sales from these areas which exceeded sales from the 1995 period. These efforts have also generated sales contracts scheduled for completion throughout the remainder of 1996. Additionally, opportunities for significant transactions involving the Partnership's properties may arise. In the past, permitting and development uncertainties caused valuation assessment obstacles that kept FMPO from successfully completing negotiations involving significant transactions. However, as the Partnership experiences success in establishing values for its properties, FMPO can expect opportunities to consider significant transactions involving its properties. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS First Quarter ------------------------ 1996 1995 ---------- ---------- (In Thousands) Loss from the Partnership $ (865) $ (2,131) Operating loss (894) (2,841) Net loss (894) (2,840) FMPO has no significant operations or source of funds other than its interest in the Partnership. Accordingly, the following discussion and analysis addresses the results of operations and the capital resources and liquidity of the Partnership. The Partnership's summary operating results follow: First Quarter ------------------------ 1996 1995 ---------- ---------- (In Thousands) Revenues $ 13,829 $ 4,382 Operating loss (91) (1,958) Net loss (865) (2,131) Revenues for the 1996 quarter totaled $13.8 million consisting of $4.3 million from the sale of 76 developed single-family homesites and $9.5 million primarily from the sale of 156 acres of undeveloped commercial and residential properties. Revenues for the 1995 period totaled $4.4 million consisting of $4.3 million from the sale of 90 developed single-family homesites and $0.1 million from the sale of 6 undeveloped acres. Higher revenues reflect the increase in FMPO's real estate activity following the 7 settlement of the Austin area development issues, discussed above, as well as favorable real estate markets and interest rates. General and administrative expenses of the Partnership, combined with those incurred by FMPO, were reduced to $0.6 million for the first quarter of 1996, compared with $1.2 million for the 1995 period, as a result of steps taken in the third quarter of 1995 to reduce costs. FMPO's current business strategy includes the sale of larger undeveloped tracts of land. These transactions by their nature can cause significant variations in FMPO's revenues and operating income during a particular accounting period. As a result, significant fluctuations in FMPO's future operating results can be expected in any given quarter which may cause future operating losses to be incurred. Consequently, past operating results are not necessarily indicative of trends in profitability. CAPITAL RESOURCES AND LIQUIDITY During 1995, the Partnership extended its debt maturities until 1997. The Partnership has the potential to achieve significant debt reductions prior to any required principal payments. However, these reductions are dependent on the future cash flow from the Partnership's assets, which is subject to numerous economic and other factors, including factors beyond FMPO's control. There can be no assurance that the Partnership will generate cash flow or obtain funds sufficient to make required interest and principal payments. FMPO continues to seek a permanent financial restructuring, which may include issuing new debt or equity investments, and believes that the planned reduction of the Partnership's debt will significantly improve its alternatives. An objective in arranging new financing for FMPO will be to eliminate the guarantees of its debt by FTX and FCX. These debt guarantees were extended in connection with the extension of the Partnership's debt maturities; however, there are currently no arrangements for any further guarantee extensions. While FMPO believes any new financing will be beneficial to the long-term interests of its shareholders, an elimination of the guarantees would be expected to increase financing costs significantly. The extent of any refinancing, including any need to sell properties in connection therewith, will determine the future net cash flow available to FMPO to recover its investment in the Partnership. ---------------------------- The results of operations reported and summarized above are not necessarily indicative of future operating results. 8 SIGNATURE Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the registrant has duly caused this report to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned thereunto duly authorized.
