Based on natural gas feedstock availability and the turnaround completed in 2025, the Company has extended the useful life of the Medicine Hat facility. The effect of these changes on actual and expected depreciation expense was as follows.

b) Asset impairment charge:
The Company reviews the carrying value of long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. The continued decline in New Zealand's forecasted gas profile has been identified as an impairment indicator for the New Zealand cash generating unit ("New Zealand CGU") and the carrying value of the New Zealand CGU was tested for impairment during the year.

The recoverable amount of the New Zealand CGU was based on fair value less costs of disposal, estimated using discounted cash flows. The model contains significant unobservable inputs and as a result is classified within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.

There are three key variables that impact the Company’s estimates of future cash flows: (1) the availability of natural gas feedstock, (2) the price of natural gas feedstock, and (3) the methanol price. The Company’s estimate of the availability of natural gas and the price of natural gas takes into consideration the current contracted terms, as well as factors that it believes are relevant to supply under these contracts and supplemental natural gas sources. Methanol price estimates are based on supply and demand fundamentals. The values assigned to the key assumptions represent management's assessment of future trends and have been based on historical data from both external and internal sources.

Based on the test performed, the Company recorded a non-cash before-tax asset impairment charge of $60 million in property, plant and equipment, in addition to $11 million in supplies inventory, for a total impairment charge of $71 million to write down the carrying value of the New Zealand CGU to its recoverable amount of nil.

The following table presents the Level 3 inputs and the sensitivities of the fair value less costs of disposal model to changes in these inputs:

The sensitivity has been prepared considering each variable independently. It is possible that the assumptions used in establishing fair value amounts will differ from future outcomes and the impact of such variations could be material.
