METHANEX CORP

This news release contains forward-looking statements with respect to us and our industry. These statements relate to future events or our future performance. All statements other than statements of historical fact are forward-looking statements. Statements that include the words “expects,” “will,” or other comparable terminology and similar statements of a future or forward-looking nature identify forward-looking statements.

More particularly and without limitation, any statements regarding the following are forward-looking statements:

•expected restart of idled capacity and timing for start-up of the same,

•expected shutdowns (either temporary or permanent) or restarts of existing methanol supply (including our own facilities),

•expected methanol and energy prices,

•expected levels, timing and availability of economically priced natural gas supply to each of our plants,

•expected operating costs, including natural gas feedstock costs and logistics costs, and

•expected actions of governments, governmental agencies, gas suppliers, courts, tribunals or other third parties.

We believe that we have a reasonable basis for making such forward-looking statements. The forward-looking statements in this document are based on our experience, our perception of trends, current conditions and expected future developments as well as other factors. 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, including, without limitation, future expectations and assumptions concerning the following:

•the supply of, demand for and price of methanol, methanol derivatives, natural gas, coal, oil and oil derivatives,

•our ability to procure natural gas feedstock on commercially acceptable terms,

•operating costs, including natural gas feedstock and logistics costs, capital costs, tax rates, cash flows, foreign exchange rates and interest rates, and

•global and regional economic activity (including industrial production levels).

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 primarily include those attendant with producing and marketing methanol and successfully carrying out major capital expenditure projects in various jurisdictions, including, without limitation:

•conditions in the methanol and other industries including fluctuations in the supply, demand and price for methanol and its derivatives, including demand for methanol for energy uses,

•the price of natural gas, coal, oil and oil derivatives,

•our ability to obtain natural gas feedstock on commercially acceptable terms to underpin current operations and future production growth opportunities,

•the ability to carry out corporate initiatives and strategies,

•actions of competitors, suppliers and financial institutions,

•actions of governments and governmental authorities, including, without limitation, implementation of policies or other measures that could impact the supply of or demand for methanol or its derivatives,

•world-wide economic conditions, and

•other risks described in our 2025 Annual Management’s Discussion and Analysis and our First Quarter 2026 Management’s Discussion and Analysis.

Having in mind these and other factors, investors and other readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on forward-looking statements. They are not a substitute for the exercise of one’s own due diligence and judgment. The outcomes implied by forward-looking statements may not occur and we do not undertake to update forward-looking statements except as required by applicable securities laws.
