Methanex Corp (MEOH) shares rose 10.39% to close at $69.28 on October 29, 2026. The primary driver was a strong third-quarter earnings report that significantly exceeded analyst expectations, coupled with a new share repurchase program.
What Happened
Methanex reported third-quarter revenue of $1.39 billion, surpassing the consensus estimate of $1.3 billion by $90 million. Non-GAAP earnings per share came in at $3.69, beating the consensus figure of $2.86 by $0.83. The company attributed the performance to supply tightness and record North American production. Management guided for 2026 production of approximately 9.0 million tons of methanol and 0.3 million tons of ammonia. The Board of Directors approved a Normal Course Issuer Bid to repurchase up to 3.868 million shares, representing 5% of outstanding stock, with purchases potentially beginning on November 4.
