<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt"><B>METHANEX COMPLETES HIGHLY PROFITABLE YEAR &#151; MOMENTUM INTO 2005 REMAINS STRONG</B>



<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt"><B>January&nbsp;26, 2005</B>


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">Methanex Corporation recorded net income of US$66.1&nbsp;million (US$0.55 per share) and generated
EBITDA<SUP style="font-size: 85%; vertical-align: text-top">1</SUP> of US$120.8&nbsp;million for the fourth quarter ended December&nbsp;31, 2004. This
compares to a net loss in the fourth quarter of 2003 of US$111.7&nbsp;million (US$0.93 per share) and
EBITDA of US$81.6&nbsp;million. Excluding unusual items related to non-cash asset restructuring
charges, the Company reported income before unusual items (after-tax) of US$27.7&nbsp;million (US$0.23
per share) for the fourth quarter of 2003.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">For the year ended December&nbsp;31, 2004, net income was US$236.4&nbsp;million (US$1.95 per share) and
EBITDA was US$434.4&nbsp;million. In 2003, income before unusual items (after-tax) was US$180.6&nbsp;million
(US$1.47 per share) and EBITDA was US$386.5&nbsp;million. After unusual items, the Company reported net
income for the year ended December&nbsp;31, 2003 of US$1.4&nbsp;million (US$0.01 per share).


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">Bruce Aitken, President and CEO of Methanex commented, &#147;2004 has been a record year for us with the
highest ever sales volumes and EBITDA per share. Tight methanol supply/demand conditions continued
in the fourth quarter resulting in further price strengthening. Our average realized price for the
fourth quarter of 2004 was US$248 per tonne compared with US$245 per tonne for the previous quarter
and US$204 per tonne for the fourth quarter of 2003. As we enter 2005, the market remains tight,
with global Methanex reference prices ranging from US$300 to $316 per
tonne (US$0.90 &#150; $0.95 per
gallon) before discounts.&#148;


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">Mr.&nbsp;Aitken continued, &#147;The 1.7&nbsp;million tonne per year Atlas methanol facility in Trinidad, in which
we have a 63.1% interest, commenced production in the third quarter of 2004 and has operated near
capacity during the fourth quarter. In Chile, we expect to start up our new 840,000 tonne per year
plant at the end of the first quarter of 2005. Together, these two new plants will represent a
step-change in our cost structure and will enhance our ability to generate cash throughout the
methanol price cycle&#148;.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">Mr.&nbsp;Aitken added, &#147;Looking ahead, we remain optimistic that tight market conditions and above
average methanol pricing will continue in 2005. We expect that the impact of planned methanol
capacity additions in 2005 should be largely offset by further industry restructuring and increased
demand.&#148;

<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">Mr.&nbsp;Aitken concluded, &#147;In May&nbsp;2004 our Board of Directors approved a normal course issuer
bid for 5% of our total outstanding shares and in November approved an increase in this bid raising
the maximum allowable repurchase to 12.2&nbsp;million shares, or 10% of the public float. As at the end
of 2004 a total of 6.1&nbsp;million shares have been repurchased at an average share price of US$13.95.
With US$210&nbsp;million cash on hand at the end of 2004 and a US$250&nbsp;million undrawn credit facility,
we have the financial capacity to complete Chile IV and our capital maintenance spending program,
pursue new opportunities to enhance our strategic position in the methanol industry and continue to
deliver on our commitment to maintain a prudent balance sheet and return excess cash to
shareholders.&#148;

<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">For the fourth quarter of 2004 we recorded EBITDA of $120.8&nbsp;million and net income of $66.1&nbsp;million
($0.55 per share). This compares with EBITDA of $125.9&nbsp;million and net income of $71.2&nbsp;million
($0.59 per share) for the third quarter of 2004 and EBITDA of $81.6&nbsp;million and a net loss of
$111.7&nbsp;million for the fourth quarter of 2003. During the fourth quarter of 2003, we recorded
before and after-tax non-cash asset restructuring charges of $139.4&nbsp;million related to the
write-down of property, plant and equipment and related assets in New Zealand and Medicine Hat,
Alberta. Excluding the impact of the asset restructuring charges, we recorded income before unusual
items (after-tax) of $27.7&nbsp;million for the fourth quarter of 2003.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">For the year ended December&nbsp;31, 2004, we recorded EBITDA of $434.4&nbsp;million and net income of $236.4
million ($1.95 per share) compared with EBITDA of $386.5&nbsp;million and income before unusual items
(after-tax) of $180.6&nbsp;million ($1.47 per share) in 2003. Including the impact of the Medicine Hat
and New Zealand asset restructuring charges and the write off of Australia project development
costs, we recorded net income of $1.4&nbsp;million ($0.01 per share) for the year ended December&nbsp;31,
2003.

<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt"><B><I>Q4 2004 compared with Q3 2004</I></B>


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">Our fourth quarter of 2004 average realized price was $248 per tonne compared with $245 per tonne
for the third quarter of 2004. Strong demand and industry supply disruptions have resulted in low
global inventories and the continuation of a very strong methanol price environment. This
favourable price environment is underpinned by high North American natural gas prices and high
global energy prices.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">We publish non-discounted reference prices for each major methanol market and offer discounts to
customers based on various factors. The methanol industry is highly competitive and prices are
affected by supply / demand fundamentals. For the fourth quarter of 2004 our average realized price
is approximately 18% lower than our published average non-discounted reference price in the United
States for the same period. This compares to approximately 12% lower for the third quarter of 2004.
In order to reduce the impact of cyclical pricing on our earnings we have strategically positioned
ourselves with certain global customers under long-term contracts where prices are either fixed or
linked to our costs plus a margin. The discount has increased as a result of higher methanol prices
together with higher volumes sold under these types of arrangements during the fourth quarter of
2004. While the discount from reference prices in the current favourable pricing environment has
increased, the discount should narrow during periods of lower pricing. We believe it is important
to maintain financial flexibility throughout the methanol price cycle and these strategic contracts
are a component of our prudent approach to liquidity.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">Our total cash costs for the fourth quarter of 2004 were higher than in the third quarter of 2004
and this decreased EBITDA by $31&nbsp;million. Approximately $16&nbsp;million of this increase in costs
relates to our New Zealand operations. During the fourth quarter, our favourable New Zealand dollar
foreign currency forward contracts expired and this, together with higher natural gas costs,
decreased EBITDA by approximately $13&nbsp;million compared with the third quarter. Also during the
fourth quarter we restructured and limited our New Zealand operations to the 500,000 tonne per year
Waitara Valley facility. As a result of the restructuring we reduced our workforce and paid
severance costs of approximately $3&nbsp;million. We have positioned our New

<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">Zealand operations to be flexible and will continue to critically assess our operating plan
during 2005 with consideration given to prevailing market conditions and our ability to generate
positive cash margins.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">Natural gas purchase contracts for our strategic assets in Chile and Trinidad are linked to
methanol prices in order to reduce our commodity price risk exposure and we believe this enables
these facilities to be competitive throughout the methanol price cycle. Higher natural gas costs in
Chile and Trinidad and other costs impacted by changes in methanol prices decreased EBITDA by
approximately $6&nbsp;million. We also incurred $2&nbsp;million in costs related to unplanned maintenance
during the fourth quarter in Chile and Trinidad. The remaining increase in costs relates primarily
to an increase in stock-based compensation expense of $2&nbsp;million due to an appreciation in our
share price and costs for strategic initiatives as we continue to pursue opportunities to enhance
our strategic position in the methanol industry.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">Our total sales volume of 2.1&nbsp;million tonnes for the fourth quarter of 2004 was approximately
290,000 tonnes higher than the third quarter. Approximately 40% of this increase relates to new
customer contracts with the remaining increase primarily the result of differences in the timing of
customer deliveries. Higher sales volumes of produced methanol during the fourth quarter of 2004
increased EBITDA by $26&nbsp;million compared with the third quarter.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">We purchase additional methanol produced by others on the spot market or through offtake agreements
in order to meet customer needs and support our marketing efforts. Consequently, we realize holding
gains or losses on the resale of this product depending on the methanol price at the time of
resale. The cost for purchased methanol also includes allocated fixed storage and handling costs of
approximately $5 per tonne. During the fourth quarter of 2004, the loss on the sale of purchased
methanol was $3&nbsp;million higher than the third quarter of 2004.



<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt"><B><I>Q4 2004 compared with Q4 2003</I></B>


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">The fourth quarter of 2004 average realized price of $248 per tonne is $44 per tonne higher than
the average realized price of $204 per tonne for the same period in 2003 and this increased EBITDA
by $62&nbsp;million.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">Our total cash costs for the fourth quarter of 2004 were higher than in the fourth quarter of 2003
and this decreased EBITDA by $47&nbsp;million. Approximately $29&nbsp;million of this impact relates to
higher natural gas costs for our New Zealand operations, including the expiration of favourable New
Zealand dollar foreign currency forward contracts and severance costs. We purchase natural gas for
our Kitimat facility on a short-term basis and the purchase price is set in a competitive market
that can fluctuate widely. Higher North American energy prices increased the natural gas costs of
our Kitimat facility by $5&nbsp;million for the fourth quarter of 2004 compared with the same period in
2003. The cost of natural gas for our strategic facilities in Chile and Trinidad is linked to
methanol prices. As a result of higher methanol prices we incurred higher costs for natural gas in
Chile and Trinidad and this decreased EBITDA by $8&nbsp;million for the fourth quarter of 2004 compared
with the fourth quarter of 2003. The remaining increase in costs relates primarily to the impact
of the increase in our share price on stock-based compensation expense of $3&nbsp;million and costs
incurred to enhance our strategic position in the methanol industry.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">The Atlas methanol facility in Trinidad commenced operations during the third quarter of 2004 and
has strengthened our strategic asset base. Primarily as a result of the addition of this new low
cost production capacity, our sales volume of produced methanol for the fourth quarter of 2004 was
approximately 203,000 tonnes higher than in same period last year and this increased EBITDA by $18
million.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">During the fourth quarter of 2004 we sold 402,000 tonnes of purchased methanol and incurred a loss
of $6&nbsp;million compared with a loss of $12&nbsp;million on the sale of 399,000 tonnes for the fourth
quarter of 2003. The cost for purchased methanol includes allocated fixed storage and handling
costs of approximately $5 per tonne in 2004 and 2003.

<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">Tight market conditions as a result of strong demand and industry supply disruptions resulted in a
favourable price environment throughout 2004. Our average realized price for the year ended
December&nbsp;31, 2004 was $234 per tonne compared with $220 per tonne for 2003 and this increased
EBITDA by $72&nbsp;million.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">Our total cash costs were higher in 2004 compared with 2003 and this decreased EBITDA by $84
million. Approximately 50% of this impact relates to higher costs for our New Zealand operations.
Despite the increase in operating costs, our New Zealand operations earned positive cash margins
throughout 2004. Higher methanol prices in 2004 compared with 2003 increased the natural gas costs
for our facilities in Chile and Trinidad and this decreased EBITDA by $22&nbsp;million. Natural gas
costs for our Kitimat facility were higher in 2004 and this decreased EBITDA by $7&nbsp;million.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">Our share price appreciated by over 60% during 2004 and this increased compensation expense related
to restricted and deferred share units by $6&nbsp;million compared with 2003. Compensation expense for
restricted and deferred share units is impacted by movements in our share price with changes in the
fair value of the related liability recognized in earnings for the percentage of the requisite
service that has been rendered at each reporting date.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">Our sales volume of produced methanol in 2004 was higher than 2003 by 365,000 tonnes and this
increased EBITDA by $35&nbsp;million. During the year ended December&nbsp;31, 2004 we sold 2.0&nbsp;million tonnes
of purchased methanol and incurred a loss of $15&nbsp;million compared with a loss of $40&nbsp;million on the
sale of 1.4&nbsp;million tonnes for the same period in 2003.

<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">Depreciation and amortization expense for the fourth quarter of 2004 was $22&nbsp;million compared with
$27&nbsp;million for the fourth quarter of 2003. For the year ended December&nbsp;31, 2004, depreciation and
amortization expense was $79&nbsp;million compared with $96&nbsp;million for the same period in 2003. The
overall decrease in depreciation expense in 2004 compared with 2003 relates to the lower carrying
value of property, plant and equipment due to the write-down of our Medicine Hat and New Zealand
production facilities at December&nbsp;31, 2003.

<P align="left" style="font-size: 8pt">*&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Quarterly operating capacity for New Zealand includes only the plants that operated during
the fourth quarter of 2004.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">Our facilities in Chile and the Titan facility in Trinidad were impacted by unplanned shutdowns
during the fourth quarter of 2004 and production from these facilities was 120,000 tonnes lower
than full operating capacity.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">The fourth quarter of 2004 was the first full quarter of production for the 1.7&nbsp;million tonne per
year Atlas methanol facility. During the fourth quarter, this facility operated near capacity and
our share of production was 264,000 tonnes.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">In December&nbsp;2004 we reduced our operations in New Zealand to the 500,000 tonne per year Waitara
Valley plant. We have positioned the New Zealand operations to be flexible and will continue to
critically assess our operating plan during 2005 with consideration given to prevailing market
conditions and our ability to generate positive cash margins.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">As discussed in our third quarter Management&#146;s Discussion and Analysis, we suffered curtailments of
natural gas to our facilities in Chile during the period mid-May to August as a result of reduced
supply from our suppliers in Argentina. This is the winter peak usage period in Argentina and we
have not suffered any curtailments since early August. We continue to closely monitor this issue
as there can be no assurance as to its ultimate outcome.



<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt"><FONT style="font-variant: SMALL-CAPS"><B>Supply/Demand Fundamentals </B></FONT>


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">Poor industry operating performance and strong demand for methanol was experienced throughout the
fourth quarter of 2004 resulting in the continuation of very favourable methanol market conditions
and low global inventories. The introduction of product from the 1.7&nbsp;million tonne per year Atlas
facility was primarily offset by the shutdowns of Lyondell&#146;s Channelview facility (750,000 tonnes)
and Terra Industries&#146; Beaumont plant (700,000 tonnes) during the second half of 2004. The 1.0
million tonne per year NPC facility in Iran also commenced operations during the third quarter of
2004 and a 1.0&nbsp;million tonne facility in Saudi Arabia started up late in 2004.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">Our 840,000 tonne per year Chile IV facility will be the next significant increment of industry
supply. Additional capacity additions for 2005 are planned and we believe that the impact of this
new supply will be largely offset by increased demand and further shutdowns of higher cost methanol
production exposed to high North American natural gas prices or high energy prices. Production from
our New Zealand facilities during 2004 totalled 1.1&nbsp;million tonnes and will be lower in 2005 as we
are currently operating only the 500,000 tonne per year Waitara Valley plant.

for the same period in 2003. For the year ended December&nbsp;31, 2004, cash flows from operating

were $375&nbsp;million compared with $330&nbsp;million for the same period in 2003. The improvement in cash
flows from operating activities in 2004 compared with 2003 is primarily the result of higher levels
of earnings.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">During 2004 we have returned $119&nbsp;million of cash to shareholders through share repurchases and
quarterly dividend payments. On November&nbsp;18, 2004, we announced an increase in our normal course
issuer bid, raising the maximum allowable repurchase from 6.1&nbsp;million common shares to 12.2&nbsp;million
common shares. The normal course issuer bid expires May&nbsp;16, 2005. During the fourth quarter, we
repurchased for cancellation 1.5&nbsp;million shares at an average price of US$16.51 per share, or $25
million. To December&nbsp;31, 2004, we have repurchased for cancellation 6.1&nbsp;million shares under this
bid at an average price of US$13.95 per share, totaling $86&nbsp;million. During the fourth quarter of
2004, we paid a quarterly dividend of US$0.08 per share, or approximately $10&nbsp;million.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">On March&nbsp;31, 2004, we repaid all of the limited recourse long-term debt related to the Titan
methanol facility. The total payment, including transaction costs, was $183&nbsp;million.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">During the fourth quarter of 2004 we contributed $9&nbsp;million to fund our portion of a debt reserve
related to the limited recourse long-term debt of the Atlas joint venture and capital expenditures
for this facility were $7&nbsp;million.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">We are currently expanding our operations in Chile with the construction of Chile IV, an 840,000
tonne per year methanol facility, which is expected to start up at the end of the first quarter of
2005. Capital expenditures for Chile IV during the fourth quarter were $15&nbsp;million, including
capitalized interest of $4&nbsp;million. Total capital expenditures for Chile IV during 2004 were $80
million, including capitalized interest of $14&nbsp;million.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">We have excellent financial capacity and flexibility. Our cash balance at December&nbsp;31, 2004 was
$210&nbsp;million and we have an undrawn $250&nbsp;million credit facility. The planned capital maintenance
expenditure program directed towards major maintenance, turnarounds and catalyst changes is
estimated to total approximately $80&nbsp;million for the period to the end of 2007. At December&nbsp;31,
2004, our estimated remaining expenditures to complete the construction of Chile IV were $57
million, including capitalized interest of $6&nbsp;million. We have $250&nbsp;million of public bonds due
August&nbsp;2005 and are currently reviewing our refinancing options.

<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt"><FONT style="font-variant: SMALL-CAPS"><B>Short-term Outlook</B></FONT>


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">Global economic growth and tight supply conditions resulted in a favourable pricing environment in
2004. As we enter 2005 the methanol market remains extremely tight and global inventory levels are
low. We expect that the impact of planned new capacity additions during 2005 is likely to be
largely offset by further shutdowns of higher cost global methanol production and increased demand.
The methanol price will ultimately depend on industry operating rates, the rate of industry
restructuring and the strength of global demand. We believe that our excellent financial position
and financial flexibility, outstanding global supply network and low-cost position will ensure that
Methanex continues to be the leader in the methanol industry.

<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">In addition to providing measures prepared in accordance with Canadian Generally Accepted
Accounting Principles (GAAP), Methanex presents certain supplemental non-GAAP measures. These are
EBITDA, income before unusual items (after-tax) and basic income before unusual items (after-tax)
per share. These measures do not have any standardized meaning prescribed by GAAP and therefore are
unlikely to be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies. These measures are
provided to assist readers in evaluating the operating performance and liquidity of the Company&#146;s
ongoing business. These measures should be considered in addition to, and not as a substitute for,
net income, cash flows from operating activities and other measures of financial performance and
liquidity reported in accordance with GAAP.

<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">Information in this management&#146;s discussion and analysis may contain forward-looking statements.
By their nature, such forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties that could cause
actual results to differ materially from those contemplated by the forward-looking statements. They
include world-wide economic conditions, actions of competitors, the availability and cost of gas
feedstock, the ability to implement business strategies and pursue business opportunities,
conditions in the methanol and other industries including the supply and demand for methanol and
the risks attendant with producing and marketing methanol and carrying out major capital
expenditure projects. Please also refer to page 43 of our 2003 Annual Report for more information
on forward-looking statements.

</TABLE>

<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">Effective January&nbsp;1, 2004, the Company adopted the amended recommendations of the Canadian
Institute of Chartered Accountants (&#147;CICA&#148;) for accounting for stock-based compensation. The
amended standard requires recognition of an estimate of the fair value of stock-based awards as a
charge to earnings. Previously, the Company provided note disclosure of pro forma net income as if
a fair value method had been used for stock based awards granted since January&nbsp;1, 2002.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">The amended recommendations have been applied retroactively, with restatement of prior periods. The
restatement at December&nbsp;31, 2003 resulted in an increase to contributed surplus and a decrease to
retained earnings of $7&nbsp;million (December&nbsp;31, 2002 &#151; $3&nbsp;million). The adjustments represent the
total compensation expense recorded for stock options granted on or after January&nbsp;1, 2002. The
restatement of the results for the three month period and year ended December&nbsp;31, 2003 resulted in
an increase to cost of sales and operating expenses of $1&nbsp;million and $4&nbsp;million, respectively.
Compensation expense related to stock options was $0.3&nbsp;million for the three month period ended
December&nbsp;31, 2004 and $2&nbsp;million for the year ended December&nbsp;31, 2004.

</TR>

</TABLE>

<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">Effective January&nbsp;1, 2004, the Company adopted the new CICA recommendations for accounting for
asset retirement obligations, which include site restoration costs. The new standard requires that
obligations associated with the retirement of tangible long-lived assets and associated retirement
costs be recognized at fair value in the period in which the obligation is incurred with a
corresponding increase in the carrying amount of the related long-lived asset. The asset
retirement obligation liability is increased at the end of each period to reflect the passage of
time and changes in the estimated future cash flows underlying the initial fair value measurement.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">This standard has been applied retroactively, with restatement of prior periods. This restatement
resulted in a decrease to the accrual for site restoration and an increase to retained earnings of
$2&nbsp;million at December&nbsp;31, 2003. The restatement of the results for the three month period and
year ended December&nbsp;31, 2003 resulted in a reduction to net income of $1&nbsp;million and $2&nbsp;million,
respectively. The application of this standard results in charges to net income of $0.3&nbsp;million
for the three month period ended December&nbsp;31, 2004 and $1&nbsp;million for the year ended December&nbsp;31,
2004.
