       Consolidated Financial Statements.  Certain 1993 amounts have been
       reclassified to conform to the 1994 presentation.  Interim results are

       NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


       1. Restructuring Charges
          ---------------------
          Selling, general and administrative expenses included
       reorganization charges totaling $5.0 million ($4.1 million net of
       minority interest) for the three and six months ended December 31, 1994
       resulting from the adoption of a restructuring plan which shifted the
       marketing and administrative functions of Phosphate Chemicals Export
       Association, Inc. (PhosChem) (formed to market concentrated phosphates
       internationally) to its member companies.

       2. Environmental Matters
          ---------------------
          Operating earnings included provisions totaling $1.4 million and
       $9.0 million ($.8 million and $5.1 million net of minority interest)
       for the three and six months ended December 31, 1994 to provide for
       additional remediation costs associated with a sinkhole beneath a
       phosphogypsum storage stack at IMC-Agrico's New Wales concentrated
       phosphate production facility in Florida and repair and cleanup costs
       related to an earthen dam breach at IMC-Agrico's Payne Creek and
       Hopewell phosphate mining facilities in Florida.  These charges were
       partially offset by a gain of $5.0 million from the sale of land in
       Florida in September 1994.

       3. Write-Down of Investment in Oil and Gas Joint Venture
          -----------------------------------------------------
          Results for the three and six months ended December 31, 1993
       included a charge of $20.3 million from the write-down of the Company's
       investment in its oil and gas partnership.

       4. Income Taxes
          ------------
          The provision (credit) for income taxes included a charge of $4.1
       million for the six months ended December 31, 1993 which adjusted the
       Company's net deferred tax liability for the effect of changes in U.S.
       corporate tax rates.

       5. Accounting for Postemployment Benefits
          --------------------------------------
          Effective July 1, 1994, the Company adopted Statement of Financial
       Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 112, ``
                                             Employers' Accounting for
       Postemployment Benefits,''
                                 to account for disability benefits.  Prior
       to July 1, 1994, the Company recognized the cost of providing certain
       of these benefits on a cash basis.  SFAS No. 112 requires the cost of
       providing these benefits be recognized when it becomes probable that
       such benefits will be paid and when sufficient information exists to
       make reasonable estimates of the amounts to be paid.  Consequently,
       results for the six months ended December 31, 1994 reflected a charge
       of $5.9 million, net of taxes, for the cumulative effect of the
       adoption of SFAS No. 112.  The effect of the adoption of SFAS No. 112
       on the three and six months' earnings before the cumulative effect of
       the accounting change was not material.

       6.  Extraordinary Loss-Debt Retirement
          -----------------------------------
          In connection with the purchase of portions of the Company's Senior
       Notes during the three and six months ended December 31, 1994 the
<PAGE>



       Company recorded extraordinary charges, net of taxes, of $1.8 million
       and $3.0 million, respectively, for redemption premium incurred and
       write-off of previously deferred finance charges associated with such
       notes.  In September 1993, the Company purchased $220 million of its
       11.25 percent Notes from The Prudential Insurance Company of America
       and recorded an extraordinary charge of $23.8 million for redemption
       premium incurred and write-off of previously deferred finance charges
       associated with such notes, net of taxes.

       7.  Earnings (Loss) Per Share
          --------------------------
          Earnings (loss) per share were based on the weighted average number
       of shares and equivalent shares outstanding.  Shares used in the
       calculations were 29,563,096 shares and 29,550,647 shares for the three
       and six months ended December 31, 1994.  For the three and six months
       ended December 31, 1993, shares and equivalent shares outstanding
       totaled 25,045,475 and 23,549,925 shares, respectively.  The above
       shares reflected common stock offerings of 3,450,000 and 4,000,000
       shares in October 1993 and May 1994, respectively.

       8.  Sale of Receivables
          -------------------
          In October 1994, IMC-Agrico Company entered into an agreement with
       a financial institution whereby it can sell, on an ongoing basis, up to
       $75.0 million of an undivided percentage interest in certain
       receivables, subject to limited recourse provisions.  At December 31,
       1994, IMC-Agrico Company had sold $39.7 million of such receivable
       interests.  Related costs, charged to interest earned and other
       non-operating income and expense, net, totaled $.6 million for the
       three and six months ended December 31, 1994.  The Company's portion of
       the proceeds from the sale of receivable interests was used primarily
       to retire long-term debt.


       Item 2.Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
       Results of Operations.

       Results of Operations
       ---------------------

       Three months ended December 31, 1994 vs. three months ended December
       31, 1993
       ----------------------------------------------------------------------
          Net earnings for the three months ended December 31, 1994 totaled
       $26.1 million, or $.88 per share, significantly higher than last year's
       second quarter when the Company reported a net loss of $3.6 million, or
       $.14 per share.

          Included in 1994 operating results was an extraordinary charge of
       $1.8 million, or $.06 per share, related to the early extinguishment of
       debt.  In 1993, the loss included a charge of $20.3 million, $12.4
       million after taxes, or $.49 per share, related to the write-down of
       the Company's investment in an oil and gas joint venture.  See Notes to
       Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for further discussion of
       these non-recurring items.

          Net sales for the three months ended December 31, 1994 were $451.8
       million, a 37 percent increase over 1993 when sales were $329.0
<PAGE>



       million.  The Company continued to experience higher sales volume and
       prices across all product lines, particularly concentrated phosphates,
       where continued strength in global markets contributed heavily to the
       increase.

          Gross margins increased $80.1 million from last year's second
       quarter primarily due to higher margins for concentrated phosphates, a
       $58 million increase, potash, a $10 million increase, and phosphate
       rock, a $7 million increase.  With recent record orders from China for
       concentrated phosphates and potash, the global market has tightened for
       each of these product lines.

          Concentrated phosphate margins increased primarily as a result of
       higher prices ($59 million) as average diammonium phosphate prices
       increased 30 percent over year-earlier levels.  Other related
       concentrated phosphate products showed similar price improvements.  In
       addition, sales volume increased ($8 million) as domestic and export
       shipping demand increased 13 percent from the same period a year ago.
       As a result of increased market demand, in January 1995 the Company
       reopened its Taft, Louisiana, concentrated phosphates production
       facility which had been idled since May 1994.  Partially offsetting the
       above increases were higher production costs ($9 million) primarily due
       to higher raw material costs.

          Potash margins increased as a result of higher prices ($5 million)
       and increased sales volume ($4 million) as average potash prices and
       sales volume increased 3 percent and 28 percent, respectively, over the
       same period a year ago.  In addition, production costs were $1 million
       lower primarily due to increased production levels.

          Phosphate rock margins increased due primarily to increased sales
       volume and higher prices ($5 million) as phosphate rock contracts, tied
       partially to concentrated phosphate pricing, were positively affected.
       In addition, production costs were $2 million lower as all plants
       operated at higher production levels.

          The following table summarizes the Company's sales of crop nutrient
       products and average selling prices for the three months ended December
       31, 1994 and 1993:

                                           (Tons in millions of short tons)
                                                   1994         1993   
                                               -----------  -----------
       Concentrated phosphates - primarily
        diammonium phosphate (DAP)
        Total dry product sales tons             1.360        1.141
        Average DAP price per ton *           $156.50      $120.76

       *  Average DAP prices represent sales made FOB Florida, Louisiana and
       regional warehouses.

       Phosphate rock
        Sales tons                               2.937        2.460
        Average price per ton                  $20.35       $19.47

       Potash
        Sales tons                                .779         .610
        Average price per ton                  $70.67       $68.38
<PAGE>




          Selling, general and administrative expenses increased $5.9 million
       over the same period a year ago primarily due to reorganization charges
       which were incurred after a restructuring plan was adopted to shift the
       marketing and administrative functions of PhosChem to its member
       companies.

          Other operating income and expense for the three months ended
       December 31,1994 included $.7 million from the amortization of a
       deferred gain resulting from the exchange of the Company's phosphate
       business for a 56.3 percent interest in IMC-Agrico.  In 1993, other
       operating income and expense included $3.9 million of such
       amortization.

          Interest charges for the three months ended December 31, 1994 were
       $7 million lower than last year, which reflected management's efforts
       to reduce high-cost, long-term indebtedness over the past year.

       Six months ended December 31, 1994 vs. six months ended December 31,
       1993
       ----------------------------------------------------------------------
          Net earnings for the six months ended December 31, 1994 totaled
       $40.8 million, or $1.38 per share, a marked improvement over last year
       when the Company reported a net loss of $49.9 million, or $2.12 per
       share.

          Included in 1994 operating results was a one-time charge of $5.9
       million, or $.20 per share, for the cumulative effect on prior years of
       a change in accounting for postemployment benefits resulting from the
       adoption of SFAS No. 112 on July 1, 1994 and an extraordinary charge of
       $3.0 million, or $.10 per share, related to the early extinguishment of
       debt.  In 1993, the loss included an extraordinary charge of $23.8
       million, or $1.01 per share, related to the early extinguishment of
       debt, a charge of $20.3 million, $12.4 million after taxes, or $.49 per
       share, related to the write-down of the Company's investment in an oil
       and gas joint venture and a charge of $4.1 million, or $.17 per share,
       for an adjustment to the Company's net deferred tax liability for the
       effect of changes in U.S. corporate tax rates.  See Notes to Condensed
       Consolidated Financial Statements for further discussion of these
       non-recurring items.

          Net sales for the six months ended December 31, 1994 were $872.6
       million, a 47 percent increase over 1993 when sales were $595.4
       million.  The Company continued to experience higher sales volume and
       prices across all product lines, particularly concentrated phosphates,
       where continued strength in global markets contributed heavily to the
       increase.

          Gross margins increased $149.4 million from the same period a year
       ago primarily due to higher margins for concentrated phosphates, a $126
       million increase, and potash, a $19 million increase.

          Concentrated phosphate margins have increased significantly
       primarily due to higher prices ($118 million) as average DAP prices
       increased 35 percent over last year's first half.  At the same time,
       sales volume increased ($26 million) as export shipments were up 41
       percent over last year's first half.  Partially offsetting the price
       and sales volume increases were higher production costs ($18 million)
<PAGE>



       primarily due to higher raw material costs and a charge resulting from
       remediation costs associated with a sinkhole described in Note 2 of
       Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.  In December
       1994, China, a major crop nutrient customer, placed a record order with
       PhosChem for 900,000 metric tons of DAP (with an option to purchase an
       additional 200,000 metric tons) for shipment through June 1995.

          Potash margins also increased primarily due to higher sales volume
       ($10 million) as domestic and export shipments rose 41 percent over
       last year.  Correspondingly, prices have begun to rise ($5 million) as
       demand has recently increased.  Production costs were lower ($4
       million) due primarily to higher production levels.  In November 1994,
       China placed a record order with Canpotex, a Canadian export consortium
       (of which the Company is a member), for 800,000 metric tons of potash
       with an option to purchase an additional 500,000 metric tons.

          Phosphate rock margins showed little change from a year ago as
       increased sales volume ($2 million), a 13 percent improvement over last
       year's first half, and higher prices ($3 million) were completely
       offset by higher production costs ($5 million) as excessive rainfalls
       in Florida early in the first half affected phosphate rock production
       and additional costs were incurred in the startup of the Company's
       previously idled Payne Creek mine.  In addition, repair and cleanup
       costs associated with an earthen dam breach at the Company's Payne
       Creek and Hopewell phosphate mining facilities in Florida contributed
       to higher production costs.

          The following table summarizes the Company's sales of crop nutrient
       products and average selling prices for the six months ended December
       31, 1994 and 1993:

                                          (Tons in millions of short tons)
                                                   1994         1993   
                                               -----------  -----------
       Concentrated phosphates - primarily DAP
        Total dry product sales tons             2.668        2.073
        Average DAP price per ton *           $154.11      $114.20

       *  Average DAP prices represent sales made FOB Florida, Louisiana and
       regional warehouses.

       Phosphate rock
        Sales tons                               5.293        4.669
        Average price per ton                  $20.05       $19.73

       Potash
        Sales tons                               1.689        1.200
        Average price per ton                  $66.27       $68.26

          Selling, general and administrative expenses increased $6.3 million
       over the same period a year ago primarily due to reorganization charges
       which were incurred after a restructuring plan was adopted to shift the
       marketing and administrative functions of PhosChem to its member
       companies.

          Other operating income and expense for the six months ended
       December 31, 1994 included a gain of $5.0 million from the sale of land
       in Florida and $1.4 million from the amortization of a deferred gain
<PAGE>



       resulting from the exchange of the Company's phosphate business for a
       56.3 percent interest in IMC-Agrico.  In 1993, other operating income
       and expense included $7.7 million of such amortization.

          Interest charges for the six months ended December 31, 1994 were
       $14.5 million lower than last year which reflected management's efforts
       to reduce high-cost, long-term indebtedness over the past year.


       Financial Condition
       -------------------
          Since June 30, 1994, cash and cash equivalents have decreased $92.4
       million.  Primary uses of cash included $114.9 million to purchase
       portions of the Company's outstanding Senior Notes, $106.7 million of
       cash sharing distributions to Freeport-McMoRan Resource Partners,
       Limited Partnership (FRP) and $27.2 million of capital expenditures.
       Partially offsetting these cash outflows were $140.7 million generated
       by operating activities, $10.9 million of proceeds from debt issuances
       and $6.0 million from the sale of fixed assets.

          The Company's working capital ratio at December 31, 1994 was 2.2
       versus 2.6 at June 30, 1994 and declined primarily due to the sale of
       receivable interests discussed in Note 8 of Notes to Condensed
       Consolidated Financial Statements.  Debt to total capitalization
       improved to 45.8 percent at December 31, 1994 compared to 64.4 percent
       a year ago and 51.3 percent at June 30, 1994 and reflects management's
       efforts to reduce long-term indebtedness over the past year.

           The Company has an agreement with a group of banks to provide it
       with an unsecured revolving credit facility (the Working Capital
       Facility) under which the Company may borrow up to $100 million until
       June 30, 1996.  At December 31, 1994, $10.0 million was drawn down for
       temporary working capital purposes and $29.7 million was drawn down in
       the form of letters of credit principally to support industrial revenue
       bonds and other debt and credit risk guarantees.

           IMC-Agrico also has an agreement with a group of banks to provide
       it with a $75 million unsecured revolving credit facility (the
       IMC-Agrico Working Capital Facility).  At December 31, 1994, $12.4
       million was drawn down in the form of letters of credit.  There were no
       other borrowings under this agreement at December 31, 1994.

          In October 1994, IMC-Agrico Company entered into an agreement with
       a financial institution whereby it can sell, on an ongoing basis, up to
       $75.0 million of an undivided percentage interest in certain
       receivables, subject to limited recourse provisions.  At December 31,
       1994, IMC-Agrico Company had sold $39.7 million of such receivable
       interests.  The Company's portion of the proceeds from the sale of
       receivable interests was used primarily to retire long-term debt.

           Certain debt agreements contain provisions which restrict the
       Company's ability to make capital expenditures, dispose of assets,
       limit the payment of dividends or other distributions to stockholders,
       and prohibit the incurrence of additional indebtedness.  The Working
       Capital Facility also contains financial ratios and tests which must be
       met with respect to interest and fixed charge coverage, tangible net
       worth, working capital and debt to total capitalization.  In addition,
       the IMC-Agrico Working Capital Facility contains financial and minimum
<PAGE>



       net Partners' capital requirements, places limitations on indebtedness
       of IMC-Agrico and restricts the ability of IMC-Agrico to make cash
       distributions in excess of Distributable Cash (as defined in the
       Partnership Agreement).  At December 31, 1994, both the Company and
       IMC-Agrico were in compliance with all of the covenants in the
       indentures and other agreements governing its indebtedness.

           IMC-Agrico makes cash distributions to each partner based on
       formulas and sharing ratios as defined in the Partnership Agreement.
       For the six months ended December 31, 1994, the total amount of
       Distributable Cash generated by IMC-Agrico was $201.2 million, of which
       $108.8 million was distributed to FRP, including $24.2 million
       subsequent to December 31, 1994.

           Capital expenditures for the year ending June 30, 1995 are
       estimated to total $67 million (including $49 million by IMC-Agrico).
       The Company believes that its current liquidity position and cash flow
       from operations should be sufficient to meet its working capital needs
       and expansion of its operations.

           In October 1993 and May 1994, the Company successfully completed
       common stock offerings totaling 7,450,000 shares, the proceeds of which
       were used to reduce long-term indebtedness.  Assuming the common stock
       offerings had occurred on July 1, 1993 and the proceeds used to reduce
       outstanding indebtedness, the pro forma net loss for the six months
       ended December 31, 1993 would have been $40.9 million, or $1.38 per
       share.

           There were no other material changes in the Company's financial
       condition, capital resources, or liquidity from that described in the
       Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 1994.



       Other Matters
       -------------
           Pursuant to the development order for the New Wales concentrated
       phosphate facility, the Company has been monitoring groundwater
       contamination levels, and had until October 30, 1994 to achieve
       permitted levels or seek an extension of time in order to accomplish
       it.  Failure to reach such levels could potentially result in the
       incurrence of substantial expenditures to line or relocate a New Wales
       cooling pond.

           Concentrations of groundwater contaminants had been slowly dropping
       and approaching permitted levels following plugging of the 12 former
       recharge wells located beneath the cooling pond.  The concentrations
       increased significantly, however, at the time of the appearance of a
       large hole atop the New Wales phosphogypsum stack, believed to be
       caused by a sinkhole beneath the stack.

           Concentrations are currently substantially in excess of permitted
       levels.  Because the Company is pumping water from the aquifer to use
       at the New Wales facility, the contamination has not traveled outside
       the Company's property.

           The Company is working with government authorities in connection
       with the sinkhole, and remediation of the groundwater contamination
<PAGE>



       levels is seen as a part of the overall situation; accordingly no
       formal request for extension under the development order has been
       filed.

           The Company also resolved a dispute with the U.S. Environmental
       Protection Agency  concerning alleged violations of water discharge
       permits at several phosphate facilities in Florida.  Under the terms of
       the settlement the Company has paid a penalty of $835,000 and has
       agreed to complete supplementary environmental projects valued at
       $265,000.

           In November of 1994, the earthen wall of a settling pond at one of
       the Company's phosphate facilities in Florida was breached, allowing
       water to flow onto neighboring property, including streams.  Corrective
       action was promptly taken and remedial measures are also being taken.
       An investigation into the incident is presently being conducted in
       cooperation with environmental agencies.  This breach was the second
       such incident at Company facilities in 1994; the earlier incident, also
       in Florida, involved the release of water onto Company property and
       property of a corporate neighbor, plus lesser amounts into streams.



       Part II. OTHER INFORMATION


       Item 1.  Legal Proceedings.


           Pursuant to certain agreements between the Company and its former
       parent company, Mallinckrodt Group Inc., the Company has agreed to
       indemnify Mallinckrodt Group Inc. against any liability or costs
       attributable to, among other things, litigation involving the crop
       nutrient business, whether or not the events which give rise to the
       litigation predated July 1, 1987.

           In the ordinary course of its business, the Company is and will
       from time to time be involved in routine litigation.  Except for (i)
       the matters discussed in the Company's 1994 Annual Report on Form 10-K
       (the 1994 Form 10-K) and Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter
       ended September 30, 1994 (the First Quarter 10-Q) and (ii) the matters
       discussed below, certain of which matters were previously discussed in
       greater detail in the Company's 1994 Form 10-K and First Quarter 10-Q,
       none of the litigation pending or known to be threatened at this time
       is regarded by the Company as potentially material.

       Sterlington Litigation
       ----------------------
           A new trial judge has been assigned to the previously disclosed
       Texas litigation relating to the May 1991 explosion at a nitroparaffins
       plant in Sterlington, Louisiana.  The previous judge did not rule on
       pending motions before leaving the bench.  The Texas Court of Appeals
       has now reversed an earlier decision of the trial judge and has ruled
       that, under Texas law, the April 1,1993 settlement agreement discussed
       in the 1994 Form 10-K between the Company and Angus Chemical Company
       (Angus) released the insurers of the Company to the same extent that it
       released the Company.  Neither the trial judge nor the Texas Court of
       Appeals ruled as to whether Louisiana law permits Angus to pursue its
<PAGE>



       previously disclosed direct action claims against the Company's
       insurers.

       Potash Antitrust Litigation
       ---------------------------
           The judge in the previously disclosed potash antitrust action filed
       in federal court in Minnesota against U.S. potash producers, including
       the Company, has certified a class of all direct U.S. potash purchasers
       as plaintiffs in that case.

       convertible securities which would have an antidilutive effect on
       earnings (loss) per share for each period.
