<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 12pt"><B>METHANEX ACHIEVES ANOTHER QUARTER OF EXCELLENT EARNINGS</B>
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"><B>October&nbsp;25, 2006</B>

</DIV>
<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">For the third quarter of 2006, Methanex recorded net income of US$113.2&nbsp;million (diluted net income
per share of US$1.05) and Adjusted EBITDA<SUP style="font-size: 85%; vertical-align: text-top">1</SUP> of US$201.3&nbsp;million. This compares with net
income of US$82.1&nbsp;million (diluted net income per share of US$0.75) and Adjusted EBITDA<SUP style="font-size: 85%; vertical-align: text-top">1</SUP>
of US$153.0&nbsp;million for the second quarter of 2006.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Bruce Aitken, President and CEO of Methanex commented, &#147;Continued strong demand and a large number
of competitor outages caused an unprecedented shortage of methanol supply in the third quarter that
drove spot methanol prices to record highs. We believe that planned and unplanned production
outages across the industry in the third quarter caused the loss of more than one million tonnes of
methanol supply. As a result, methanol contract prices escalated by approximately US$100 per tonne
in the United States and Asia in September and increased further in all regions early in the fourth
quarter. Our average realized price for the third quarter was US$305 per tonne compared with US$279
per tonne for the second quarter of 2006.&#148;
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">The Methanex European posted contract price has been set for the fourth quarter of 2006 at 400
Euros per tonne (US$511 per tonne at time of settlement), an increase of 150 Euros over the third
quarter price. Our non-discounted posted contract prices for the United States and Asia for October
are US$599 per tonne and US$550 per tonne, respectively. This represents an average increase to
posted prices across the global regions of approximately US$235 per tonne from July to October.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Mr.&nbsp;Aitken added, &#147;Despite these very significant price increases, methanol demand remains strong.
Global methanol inventories are at very low levels and an extended period of high operating rates
is required to balance supply and demand.&#148;
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Mr.&nbsp;Aitken concluded, &#147;Our cash generation was very strong this quarter. With US$265&nbsp;million cash
on hand at the end of the third quarter, a strong balance sheet and a US$250&nbsp;million undrawn credit
facility, we are well positioned to meet our financial requirements related to a potential methanol
project in Egypt, complete our capital maintenance spending program, pursue new opportunities to
enhance our leadership position in the methanol industry, investigate opportunities related to new
methanol demand for energy applications and continue to deliver on our commitment to return excess
cash to shareholders.&#148;
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">A conference call is scheduled for <B>Thursday, October&nbsp;26, 2006 at 11:00 am EDT (8:00 am PDT) </B>to
review these third quarter results. To access the call, dial the Telus Conferencing operator ten
minutes prior to the start of the call at <B>(416)&nbsp;883-0139</B>, or toll free at <B>(888)&nbsp;458-1598</B>. The

</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Information contained in this press release and the attached Third Quarter 2006 Management&#146;s
Discussion and Analysis contains forward-looking statements. Certain material factors or
assumptions were applied in drawing the conclusions or making the forecasts or projections that are
included in these forward-looking statements. Methanex believes that it has a reasonable basis for
making such forward-looking statements. However, forward-looking statements, by their nature,
involve risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those
contemplated by the forward-looking statements. The risks and uncertainties include those attendant
with producing and marketing methanol and successfully carrying out major capital expenditure
projects in various jurisdictions, the ability to successfully carry out corporate initiatives and
strategies, conditions in the methanol and other industries including the supply and demand balance
for methanol, actions of competitors and suppliers, changes in laws or regulations in foreign
jurisdictions, world-wide economic conditions and other risks described in our 2005 Management&#146;s
Discussion &#038; Analysis and the attached Third Quarter 2006 Management&#146;s Discussion and Analysis.
Undue reliance should not be placed on forward-looking statements. They are not a substitute for
the exercise of one&#146;s own due diligence and judgment. The outcomes anticipated in forward-looking
statements may not occur and we do not undertake to update forward-looking statements. These
materials also contain certain non-GAAP financial measures. Non-GAAP financial measures do not have
any standardized meaning and therefore are unlikely to be comparable to similar measures used by
other companies. For more information regarding these non-GAAP measures, please see our 2005
Management&#146;s Discussion &#038; Analysis and the attached Third Quarter 2006 Management&#146;s Discussion and
Analysis.

income of $310.5&nbsp;million ($2.82 per share on a diluted basis) and income before unusual items
(after-tax) of $284.7&nbsp;million ($2.58 per share on a diluted basis) compared with Adjusted EBITDA of

</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">A core element of our strategy is to strengthen our position as a low cost producer. Our core
production facilities in Chile and Trinidad are underpinned by long-term take-or-pay natural gas
purchase agreements with pricing terms that vary with methanol prices. These production hubs have
an annual production capacity of 5.8&nbsp;million tonnes and represent over 90% of our current annual
production capacity. The operating results for these facilities represent a substantial proportion
of our Adjusted EBITDA and, accordingly, we separately discuss the
impact of the changes in
average realized price, sales volumes and total cash costs related to these facilities.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Over the last few years we have been shutting down our high cost production which was exposed
to volatile prices for natural gas. We permanently closed our Kitimat facility on November&nbsp;1, 2005.
Our facilities in New Zealand have been positioned as flexible production assets with future
operations dependent on securing natural gas on commercially acceptable terms. The Waitara Valley
facility in New Zealand was idled on July&nbsp;10, 2006 and was restarted on August&nbsp;16, 2006. As the
operating results for these facilities represent a smaller proportion of our Adjusted EBITDA, the
impact of changes in average realized price, sales volumes and total cash costs have been combined
and presented as the change in cash margin related to these facilities in our analysis of Adjusted
EBITDA.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">For a further discussion of the definitions and calculations used in our Adjusted EBITDA analysis,
refer to <I>How We Analyze Our Business</I>.

</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">We entered the third quarter of 2006 in a strong pricing environment underpinned by high
global energy prices and low global inventories. During the third quarter of 2006 planned and
unplanned production outages led to extremely tight supply conditions with certain methanol
suppliers declaring force majeure as they were unable to meet customer sales commitments. As a
result, global inventories were significantly depleted during the quarter and methanol prices
increased dramatically in September.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Our average realized price for the third quarter of 2006 was $305 per tonne compared with
$279 per tonne for the second quarter of 2006 and $240 per tonne for the third quarter of 2005.
Higher average realized prices for the third quarter of 2006 increased our Adjusted EBITDA by $42
million compared with the second quarter of 2006 and increased our Adjusted EBITDA by $97&nbsp;million
compared with the third quarter of 2005. Our average realized price for the nine months ended
September&nbsp;30, 2006 was $289 per tonne compared with $253 per tonne during the same period in 2005
resulting in an increase in Adjusted EBITDA of $142&nbsp;million.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">The methanol industry is highly competitive and prices are affected by supply/demand fundamentals.
We publish non-discounted prices for each major methanol market and offer discounts to customers
based on various factors. For the third quarter of 2006 our average realized price was
approximately 13% lower than our average non-discounted posted price. This compares with
approximately 18% lower for the second quarter of 2006 and 15% lower for the third quarter of 2005.
To reduce the impact of cyclical pricing on our earnings, we have entered into long-term contracts
for a portion of our production volume with certain global customers where prices are either fixed
or linked to our costs plus a margin. Sales volumes under these long-term contracts in the third
quarter of 2006 represented a lower proportion of our total sales
volume compared with the second quarter of 2006 and this, together with additional volumes sold at
high spot prices during the quarter, resulted in a lower discount compared with the second quarter.
We believe it is important to maintain financial flexibility throughout the methanol price cycle
and these strategic contracts are a part of our balanced approach to managing cash flow and
liquidity.

</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Sales volumes of methanol produced at our production hubs in Chile and Trinidad for the third
quarter of 2006 were higher by 178,000 tonnes compared with the second quarter of 2006 and this
increased Adjusted EBITDA by $26&nbsp;million.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">The commencement of operations of Chile IV in June&nbsp;2005 increased our annual production capacity to
5.8&nbsp;million tonnes from 5.0&nbsp;million tonnes. Sales volumes of methanol produced at our production
hubs in Chile and Trinidad for the third quarter of 2006 and the nine months ended September&nbsp;30,
2006 were higher than in the comparable periods in 2005 by 472,000 tonnes and 711,000 tonnes,
respectively. Higher sales volumes for these periods increased Adjusted EBITDA by $56&nbsp;million and
$98&nbsp;million, respectively.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"><B><I>Total cash costs</I></B>
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Our production facilities in Chile and Trinidad are underpinned by long-term take-or-pay
natural gas purchase agreements with pricing terms that include base and variable price components.
The variable component is adjusted in relation to increases in methanol prices above pre-determined
prices. We believe this enables these facilities to be competitive throughout the methanol price
cycle.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Total cash costs for the third quarter of 2006 were higher than in the second quarter of 2006 by
$18&nbsp;million. Natural gas and certain other costs impacted by higher methanol prices increased cash
costs by $10&nbsp;million for the third quarter compared with the second quarter. Higher unabsorbed
fixed costs as a result of lower production at our facilities in Chile during the third quarter of
2006 increased our cash costs by $4&nbsp;million. The remaining increase in cash costs relates primarily
to higher supply chain and ocean shipping costs during the third quarter of 2006 compared with the
second quarter of 2006.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Total cash costs for the third quarter of 2006 and the nine months ended September&nbsp;30, 2006 were
higher than in the comparable periods in 2005 and this decreased Adjusted EBITDA by $33&nbsp;million and
$72&nbsp;million, respectively. Natural gas and certain other costs impacted by higher methanol prices
increased cash costs for the third quarter of 2006 and the nine month period ended September&nbsp;30,
2006 compared with the same periods in 2005 by $20&nbsp;million and $34&nbsp;million, respectively.
Stock-based compensation expense was higher for the third quarter of 2006 and the nine months ended
September&nbsp;30, 2006 compared with the same periods in 2005 by $6&nbsp;million and $13&nbsp;million,
respectively. The increase in stock-based compensation expense is primarily due to the impact of
increases in our share price. The remaining increase in our cash costs for the third quarter of
2006 and the nine months ended September&nbsp;30, 2006 compared with the same periods in 2005 relates
primarily to higher ocean shipping fuel costs and other supply chain costs in 2006. The increase in
supply chain costs during 2006 has been partially recovered from customers and this recovery has
been included in revenue.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"><B><I>Margin earned from New Zealand and Kitimat facilities</I></B>
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">For the third quarter of 2006, our cash margin on the sale of New Zealand inventory was $3
million lower than the second quarter of 2006 primarily as a result of lower sales volumes during
the third quarter. For the third quarter of 2006 and nine months ended September&nbsp;30, 2006, our cash
margin on the sale of New Zealand and Kitimat inventory was higher by $8&nbsp;million and $18&nbsp;million,
respectively, than the comparable periods in 2005. The increase in cash margin primarily relates to
lower sales volumes of high cost Kitimat inventory and higher methanol prices during 2006.

</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Depreciation and amortization was $31&nbsp;million for the third quarter of 2006 compared with $24
million for the second quarter of 2006 and $23&nbsp;million for the third quarter of 2005. The increase
in depreciation and amortization during the third quarter of 2006 is primarily as a result of
higher sales volumes of Chile and Trinidad production and unabsorbed depreciation recorded for our
Chile facilities during planned and unplanned maintenance activities during the third quarter. For
the nine months ended September&nbsp;30, 2006, depreciation and amortization was $79&nbsp;million compared
with $65&nbsp;million for the same period in 2005. The increase in depreciation and amortization for the
nine months ended September&nbsp;30, 2006 compared with the same period in 2005 is primarily due to the
depreciation of Chile IV, which commenced

</DIV>
<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Interest incurred during construction is capitalized to the cost of the asset until the asset
is substantively complete and ready for productive use. The Chile IV methanol facility commenced
operations in June&nbsp;2005.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"><B>Income Taxes</B>
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">During 2005, the Government of Trinidad and Tobago introduced new tax legislation retroactive to
January&nbsp;1, 2004. As a result, during 2005 we recorded a $17&nbsp;million charge to increase future
income tax expense to reflect the retroactive impact for the period January&nbsp;1, 2004 to December&nbsp;31,
2004. In February&nbsp;2006, the Government of Trinidad and Tobago passed an amendment to this
legislation that changed the retroactive effective date to January&nbsp;1, 2005. As a result of this
amendment we recorded an adjustment to decrease future income tax expense by a total of $26&nbsp;million
during the first quarter of 2006. The adjustment includes a reversal of the previous charge to 2005
earnings and an additional adjustment to recognize the benefit of tax deductions that were
reinstated as a result of the change in the retroactive effective date.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Excluding the above-noted adjustment, the tax rate for the third quarter of 2006 was 30% compared
with 32% for the second quarter of 2006. The statutory tax rate in Chile and Trinidad, where we
earn substantially all of our pre-tax earnings, is 35%. Our Atlas facility in Trinidad has partial
relief from corporation income tax until 2014. During the third quarter of 2006, we earned a higher
proportion of our consolidated income from methanol produced at the Atlas facility and this
contributed to a lower effective tax rate as compared with the second quarter of 2006. Excluding
unusual items, the effective tax rate for the nine months ended September&nbsp;30, 2006 was 32% compared
with 31% for the same period in 2005.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">In Chile the tax rate consists of a first category tax that is payable when income is earned and a
second category tax that is due when earnings are distributed from Chile. The second category tax
is initially recorded as future income tax expense and is subsequently reclassified to current
income tax expense when earnings are distributed. Accordingly, the ratio of current income tax
expense to total income tax expense is highly dependent on the level of cash distributed from
Chile.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Our methanol facilities in Trinidad operated at near design capacity during the third quarter
of 2006. These plants are capable of producing above design capacity and would have produced a
further 34,000 tonnes of production but for short-term delivery infrastructure constraints of our
natural gas suppliers.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Our methanol production facilities in Chile produced 666,000 tonnes during the third quarter of
2006 compared with an operating capacity of 960,000 tonnes. Planned maintenance on our Chile I
facility was completed in July resulting in a loss of approximately 30,000 tonnes of production and
various unplanned outages at our Chile facilities during the third quarter of 2006 resulted in a
loss of approximately 146,000 tonnes of production. The repair and maintenance of delivery
infrastructure by our natural gas suppliers resulted in a loss of approximately 93,000 tonnes of
production and curtailments
of natural gas as a result of redirection orders from the Argentinean government resulted in a loss
of approximately 25,000 tonnes of production. We expect that we will continue to lose some amounts
of natural gas as a result of delivery infrastructure repair and maintenance in the fourth quarter
of 2006, however, these losses should be lower as the demand for natural gas in the domestic market
is typically reduced during the summer season in the southern hemisphere.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Effective July&nbsp;25, 2006, the government of Argentina increased the duty on exports of natural gas
from Argentina to Chile, which have been in place since May&nbsp;2004, from approximately $0.30 per
mmbtu to $2.25 per mmbtu. Exports of natural gas from the province of Tierra del Fuego were exempt
from this duty until late October&nbsp;2006 when the government of Argentina extended this duty to
include this province retroactive to May&nbsp;2004 at the same rates applicable to the other provinces.
As a result of this resolution, the increased duty on exports of natural gas will apply to all of
the natural gas feedstock that we source from Argentina, or approximately 60% of the total current
gas supply to our plants in Chile. The total cost of the export duty to our gas suppliers on an
annual basis has increased to approximately $200&nbsp;million. While we have contractual protection
against these export duties, we have been in discussions with certain of our Argentinean gas
suppliers regarding the impact of the increased export duty and, subject to certain conditions, we
have indicated a willingness to share some of this export duty. We expect to reach agreements with
our gas suppliers by the end of the year.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">The cost of any potential agreements reached with our gas suppliers related to this export duty
cannot be reasonably estimated at this time and therefore we cannot provide assurance that this
export duty will not have an adverse effect on our results of operations and financial condition.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">The Waitara Valley facility in New Zealand was temporarily idled on July&nbsp;10, 2006 and was restarted
on August&nbsp;16, 2006. We produced 71,000 tonnes at this facility during the third quarter of 2006 and
as at the end of the third quarter we had contracted natural gas to allow us to produce
approximately 80,000 tonnes of methanol. We continue to seek other supplies of natural gas to
supplement this production and to extend the life of our New Zealand operations. There can be no
assurance that we will be able to secure additional gas on commercially acceptable terms.

</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">We entered the third quarter of 2006 in a strong pricing environment underpinned by high
global energy prices and low global methanol inventories. During the third quarter of 2006, planned
and unplanned production outages led to extremely tight supply conditions with certain methanol
suppliers declaring force majeure as they were unable to meet customer sales commitments. As a
result, global inventories were significantly depleted and methanol prices increased dramatically
in September and again in October. We believe that it could take an extended period of high
operating rates to balance supply and demand.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Over the next twelve months, we expect new capacity and expansions of existing capacity to increase
methanol supply by approximately 2.5&nbsp;million tonnes, outside of China. Over the same period, we
believe a similar volume of capacity could shut down as a result of high feedstock prices. The next
increment of world-scale capacity is the 1.7&nbsp;million tonne per year NPC facility in Iran and we
expect product from this facility will be available to the market during the first half of
2007.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">In addition, there is a 1.0&nbsp;million tonne plant in Oman that is under construction. We expect
product from this plant to be available to the market early in 2008.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">In China, a 0.6&nbsp;million tonne per year natural gas-based methanol plant on Hainan Island is
in its early start-up phase. Due to its location on the coast, this plant could export methanol.
However, it is our understanding that most of the production from this facility will supply
traditional methanol markets in the coastal provinces of East and South China. There is also
additional smaller-scale capacity being added in China over the next year which is expected to be
absorbed in the domestic market in China.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Demand for methanol in China has grown at higher rates than we expected in 2006. We believe that a
large proportion of this additional unexpected demand is related to non-traditional uses for
methanol such as gasoline blending. Therefore, while new production capacity has recently commenced
operations and additional smaller-scale capacity is expected to be constructed in China during
2006, we continue to believe substantially all domestic methanol production will be consumed within
the local market. As a result, we expect imports into China during 2006 to remain at levels similar
to 2005 and that imports into China will grow over time.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">During 2005, just over two million tonnes of methanol was used in the production of MTBE for
consumption in the United States. As a result of the 2005 United States Energy Policy Act, MTBE had
been substantially removed from gasoline in the United States by the end of May&nbsp;2006. We continue
to believe the impact of lower demand for methanol for MTBE consumed in the United States in 2006
will be more than offset by increases in demand for methanol for MTBE elsewhere in the world,
increases in demand for methanol in energy related uses as well as demand growth related to other
chemical derivatives.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">We believe the strong pricing environment and tight global inventory dynamics will continue
into the fourth quarter. During 2007, we expect to see new non-traditional demand growth for
methanol for energy related uses such as di-methyl ether (DME)&nbsp;and fuel blending. It is our view
that traditional and non-traditional growth, along with closures of high cost capacity, will offset
the new supply that is scheduled to start up over the coming year. We believe that supply/demand
fundamentals will be balanced to tight during 2007 and that methanol prices will be underpinned by
global energy prices.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">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 provide a
sound basis for Methanex continuing to be the leader in the methanol industry.

(after-tax) per share, operating income and cash flows from operating activities before changes in
non-cash working capital. These measures do not have any standardized meaning prescribed by
Canadian GAAP and therefore are unlikely to be comparable to similar measures presented by other
companies. We believe these measures are useful 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 and other measures of financial performance and
liquidity reported in accordance with Canadian GAAP.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 12pt"><B>Adjusted EBITDA</B>
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">This supplemental non-GAAP measure is provided to assist readers in determining our ability to
generate cash from operations. We believe this measure is useful in assessing performance and
highlighting trends on an overall basis. We also believe Adjusted EBITDA is frequently used by
securities analysts and investors when comparing our results with those of other companies.
Adjusted EBITDA differs from the most comparable GAAP measure, cash flows from operating
activities, primarily because it does not include changes in non-cash working capital, other cash
payments related to operating activities, stock-based compensation expense, other non-cash items,
Kitimat closure costs, interest expense, interest and other income, and current income taxes.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">The following table shows a reconciliation of cash flows from operating activities to Adjusted
EBITDA:

May to August (the winter season in the southern hemisphere) in each of 2004, 2005 and 2006, our
Chilean production facilities experienced production losses of approximately 50,000 tonnes, 100,000
tonnes and 30,000 tonnes, respectively, as a result of curtailments of natural gas resulting from
redirection orders from the Argentinean government. There can be no assurance that natural gas
supply to our facilities will not be impacted in the future. See our 2005 Annual Report for further

</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">We review our results of operations by analyzing changes in the components of our Adjusted
EBITDA (refer to <I>Supplemental Non-GAAP Measures </I>for a reconciliation to the most comparable GAAP
measure), depreciation and amortization, interest expense, interest and other income, unusual items
and income taxes. In addition to the methanol that we produce at our facilities, we also purchase
and re-sell methanol produced by others. We analyze the results of produced methanol sales
separately from purchased methanol sales as the margin characteristics of each are very different.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 12pt"><B>Produced Methanol</B>
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">The key drivers of changes in our Adjusted EBITDA for produced methanol are average realized price,
sales volume and cash costs. We provide separate discussion of the changes in Adjusted EBITDA
related to our core Chile and Trinidad production hubs and the changes in Adjusted EBITDA related
to our Kitimat and New Zealand facilities.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Our production hubs in Chile and Trinidad are underpinned by long-term take-or-pay natural gas
purchase agreements and the operating results for these facilities represent a substantial portion
of our Adjusted EBITDA. Accordingly, in our analysis of Adjusted EBITDA for our facilities in Chile
and Trinidad we separately discuss the impact of changes in average realized price, sales volume
and cash costs.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Our facilities in Kitimat and New Zealand incur higher production costs and their operating results
represent a smaller proportion of our Adjusted EBITDA. To eliminate our exposure to high cost North
American natural gas feedstock, we permanently closed our Kitimat production facility on November
1, 2005. Our 530,000 tonne per year Waitara Valley facility in New Zealand has been positioned as a
flexible production asset. The impact of changes in average realized price, sales volume and cash
costs on the Adjusted EBITDA for our Kitimat and New Zealand facilities has been combined and
presented as the change in cash margin.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">The price, cash cost and volume variances included in our Adjusted EBITDA analysis for produced
methanol are defined and calculated as follows:

average realized price is calculated as the difference from
period-to-period in the selling price of produced methanol
multiplied by the current period sales volume of produced
methanol. Sales under long-term contracts where the prices are
either fixed or linked to our costs plus a margin are included
as sales of produced methanol. Accordingly, the selling price
of produced methanol will differ from the selling price of
purchased methanol.</TD>

which is directly related to the price of methanol at the time of purchase. Accordingly, the
analysis of purchased methanol and its impact on our Adjusted EBITDA is discussed on a net margin
basis.

</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Information contained in this Management&#146;s Discussion and Analysis contains forward-looking
statements. Certain material factors or assumptions were applied in drawing the conclusions or
making the forecasts or projections that are included in these forward-looking statements. Methanex
believes that it has a reasonable basis for making such forward-looking statements. However,
forward-looking statements, by their nature, involve risks and uncertainties that could cause
actual results to differ materially from those contemplated by the forward-looking statements. The
risks and uncertainties include those attendant with producing and marketing methanol and
successfully carrying out major capital expenditure projects in various jurisdictions, the ability
to successfully carry out corporate initiatives and strategies, conditions in the methanol and
other industries including the supply and demand balance for methanol, actions of competitors and
suppliers, changes in laws or regulations in foreign jurisdictions, world-wide economic conditions
and other risks described in our 2005 Management&#146;s Discussion &#038; Analysis which is available on
SEDAR at <U>www.sedar.com </U>and EDGAR at<U> www.sec.gov</U>.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Undue reliance should not be placed on forward-looking statements. They are not a substitute for
the exercise of one&#146;s own due diligence and judgment. The outcomes anticipated in forward-looking
statements may not occur and we do not undertake to update forward-looking statements.

    <TD>These interim consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles in Canada on a basis consistent with those followed in the most
recent annual consolidated financial statements. These accounting principles are different in
some respects from those generally accepted in the United States and the significant differences
are described and reconciled in note 14. These interim consolidated financial statements do not
include all note disclosures required by Canadian generally accepted accounting principles for
annual financial statements, and therefore should be read in conjunction with the annual
consolidated financial statements included in the Methanex Corporation 2005 Annual Report.</TD>

    <TD>During 2005, the Government of Trinidad and Tobago introduced new tax legislation retroactive to
January&nbsp;1, 2004. As a result, during 2005 we recorded a $16.9&nbsp;million charge to increase future
income tax expense to reflect the retroactive impact for the period January&nbsp;1, 2004 to December
31, 2004. In February&nbsp;2006, the Government of Trinidad and Tobago passed an amendment to this
legislation that changed the retroactive date to January&nbsp;1, 2005. As a result of the amendment
we recorded an adjustment to decrease future income taxes by a total of $25.8&nbsp;million. The
adjustment is made up of the reversal of the previous charge to 2005 earnings of $16.9&nbsp;million
and an additional adjustment of $8.9&nbsp;million to recognize the benefit of tax deductions that
were reinstated as a result of the change in the implementation date.</TD>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt; margin-left: 4%">On March&nbsp;3, 2006, the Company granted 402,460 performance share units. Performance
share units are grants of notional common shares where the ultimate number of units that
vest will be determined by the Company&#146;s total shareholder return in relation to a
predetermined target over the period to vesting. The number of units that will ultimately
vest will be in the range of 50% to 120% of the original grant. The performance share units
granted on March&nbsp;3, 2006 will vest on December&nbsp;31, 2008.
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt; margin-left: 4%">Compensation expense for deferred, restricted and performance share units is initially
measured at fair value based on the market value of the Company&#146;s common shares and is
recognized over the related service period. Changes in fair value are recognized in earnings
for the proportion of the service that has been rendered at each reporting date. The fair
value of deferred, restricted and performance share units at September&nbsp;30, 2006 was $46.8
million compared with the recorded liability of $31.3&nbsp;million. The difference between the
fair value and the recorded liability of $15.5&nbsp;million will be recognized over the weighted
average remaining service period of approximately 1.8&nbsp;years.
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt; margin-left: 4%">For the three and nine month periods ended September&nbsp;30, 2006, compensation expense related
to deferred, restricted and performance share units included in cost of sales and operating
expenses was $6.3&nbsp;million (2005 &#151; $1.5&nbsp;million) and $16.6&nbsp;million (2005 &#151; $6.9&nbsp;million),
respectively. For the three and nine month periods ended September&nbsp;30, 2006, the
compensation expense included $3.6&nbsp;million (2005 &#150; recovery of $0.6&nbsp;million) and $8.5
million (2005 &#151; $0.3&nbsp;million), respectively, related to the effect of the increase in the
Company&#146;s share price. As at September&nbsp;30, 2006, the Company&#146;s share price was US$24.34 per
share.

</DIV>



<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt; margin-left: 3%">Effective July&nbsp;25, 2006, the government of Argentina increased the duty on exports of natural
gas from Argentina to Chile, which have been in place since May&nbsp;2004, from approximately $0.30
per mmbtu to $2.25 per mmbtu. Exports of natural gas from the province of Tierra del Fuego were
previously exempt from this duty until late October when the government of Argentina extended
this duty to include this province retroactive to May&nbsp;2004 at the same rates applicable to the
other provinces. As a result of this resolution, the increased duty on exports of natural gas
will apply to all of the natural gas feedstock that the Company sources from Argentina, or
approximately 60% of the total current gas supply to its plants in Chile. The total cost of the
export duty to our gas suppliers on an annual basis has increased to approximately $200&nbsp;million.
While the Company has contractual protection against export duties, it has been in discussions
with certain gas suppliers in Argentina regarding the impact of the increased export duty and,
subject to certain conditions, the Company has indicated a willingness to share some of this
export duty. The Company expects to reach agreements with its gas suppliers by the end of the
year.
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt; margin-left: 3%">The cost of any potential agreements reached with the Company&#146;s gas suppliers cannot be
reasonably estimated at this time and therefore the Company cannot provide assurance that this
export duty will not have an adverse effect on its results of operations and financial
condition.

accounted for as a liability under US GAAP because the exercise price of the stock options
is denominated in a currency other than the Company&#146;s functional currency or the currency
in which the optionee is normally compensated. For Canadian GAAP purposes, no compensation
expense has been recorded as these options were granted in 2001 which is prior to the
effective implementation date for fair value accounting under Canadian GAAP. During the
three and nine month periods ended September&nbsp;30, 2006, an increase to operating expenses of
$0.2&nbsp;million (2005 &#150; decrease of $0.2&nbsp;million) and $0.4&nbsp;million (2005 &#150; decrease of $0.3
million), respectively, was recorded in accordance with US GAAP .</TD>

    <TD><B>Forward exchange contracts: </B>Under Canadian GAAP, forward exchange
contracts that are designated and qualify as hedges are recorded at fair value and
recognized in earnings when the hedged transaction is recorded. Under US GAAP, forward
exchange contracts that are designated and qualify as hedges are recorded at fair value at
each reporting date, with the change in fair value either being recognized in earnings to
offset the change in fair value of the hedged transaction, or recorded in other
comprehensive income until the hedged transaction is recorded. The ineffective portion, if
any, of the change in fair value of forward exchange contracts that are designated and
qualify as hedges is immediately recognized in earnings. For the three and nine month
periods ended September&nbsp;30, 2006, no adjustment to operating expenses was recorded in
accordance with US GAAP. For the three and nine month periods ended September&nbsp;30, 2005, no
adjustment to operating expenses and an increase of $0.3&nbsp;million, respectively, was
recorded in accordance with US GAAP.</TD>

    <TD><B>Interest in Atlas joint venture: </B>US GAAP requires interests in joint
ventures to be accounted for using the equity method. Canadian GAAP requires proportionate
consolidation of interests in joint ventures. The Company has not made an adjustment in
this reconciliation for this difference in accounting principles because the impact of
applying the equity method of accounting does not result in any change to net income or
shareholders&#146; equity. This departure from US GAAP is acceptable for foreign private issuers
under the practices prescribed by the United States Securities and Exchange Commission.</TD>

    <TD><B>Performance Share Units: </B>On March&nbsp;3, 2006, the Company granted 402,460
performance share units. Performance share units are grants of notional common shares where
the ultimate number of units that vest will be determined by the Company&#146;s total
shareholder return in relation to a predetermined target over the period to vesting. The
number of units that will ultimately vest will be in the range of 50% to 120% of the
original grant. Under Canadian GAAP, the fair value of performance share units is measured
each reporting period as the market price multiplied by the total shareholder return
result. This fair value is recognized over the related service period with changes in fair
value being recognized in earnings for the proportion of the service that has been rendered
at each reporting date. Under US GAAP, the fair value of performance share units is
calculated each reporting period using a pricing model that incorporates the service and
market conditions related to the performance share units. This fair value is recognized
over the related service period with changes in fair value being recognized in earnings for
the proportion of the service that has been rendered at each reporting date. For the three
and nine month periods ended September&nbsp;30, 2006, no adjustment to operating expenses was
recorded in accordance with US GAAP.</TD>
