First Quarter Report — 2006
(in United States dollars, tabular amounts in thousands, except where noted)
Management’s Discussion and Analysis
of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
Three Months Ended March 31, 2006
This Management’s Discussion and Analysis should be read in conjunction with Goldcorp’s unaudited interim consolidated financial statements for the three months ended March 31, 2006 and related notes thereto which have been prepared in accordance with Canadian generally accepted accounting principles. Goldcorp’s accounting policies are consistent with United States generally accepted accounting principles in all material respects except as outlined in note 13 to the unaudited interim consolidated financial statements. In addition, the following should be read in conjunction with the 2005 audited consolidated financial statements, the related annual Management’s Discussion and Analysis, and the Annual Information Form/40-F on file with the US Securities and Exchange Commission and Canadian provincial securities regulatory authorities. All figures are in United States dollars (tabular amounts are in thousands) unless otherwise noted. This Management’s Discussion and Analysis has been prepared as of May 12, 2006.
FIRST QUARTER HIGHLIGHTS
  Net earnings tripled to $92.4 million ($0.27 per share), compared with $29.5 million ($0.12 per share) in 2005.
 
  Gold production increased to 295,100 ounces, compared with 275,400 ounces in 2005.
 
  Gold sales were 288,400 ounces, compared with 217,500 ounces in 2005.
 
  Total cash costs were minus $88 per ounce (net of by-product copper and silver credits) (2005 – positive $94) (1) .
 
  On March 31, 2006, Goldcorp completed the acquisition of Virginia Gold Mines and its Éléonore gold project in Quebec, Canada.
 
  Dividends paid during the quarter of $15.3 million.
 
  On May 12, 2006, Goldcorp closed on the agreement with Barrick Gold Corporation (“Barrick”) to acquire Placer Dome Inc’s (“Placer Dome’s”) Canadian operations and other assets for cash of approximately $1.6 billion, subject to final adjustments.
 
  On May 9, 2006, Goldcorp warrant holders voted in favor of the early exercise of the warrants. Proceeds are expected to be approximately $480 million assuming all warrants are exercised during the 30-day early exercise period.
 
  (1)   The Company has included a non-GAAP performance measure, total cash cost per gold ounce, throughout this document. The Company reports total cash costs on a sales basis. In the gold mining industry, this is a common performance measure but does not have any standardized meaning, and is a non-GAAP measure. The Company follows the recommendations of the Gold Institute standard. The Company believes that, in addition to conventional measures, prepared in accordance with GAAP, certain investors use this information to evaluate the Company’s performance and ability to generate cash flow. Accordingly, it is intended to provide additional information and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of performance prepared in accordance with GAAP.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis
(in United States dollars, tabular amounts in thousands, except where noted)
OVERVIEW
Goldcorp is a leading gold producer engaged in gold mining and related activities including exploration, extraction, processing and reclamation. The Company’s assets are comprised of the Red Lake Mine, a 37.5% interest in the world-class Alumbrera gold/copper mine in Argentina, the Luismin gold/silver mines in Mexico, the Amapari gold mine in Brazil, the Peak gold mine in Australia and the Wharf gold mine in the United States. Significant development projects include the expansion of the existing Red Lake mine, the Los Filos gold project in Mexico, and the Éléonore gold project in Canada. Goldcorp also owns a 62% interest in Silver Wheaton Corp (“Silver Wheaton”), a publicly traded silver mining company (see Subsequent Events).
Goldcorp is listed on the New York Stock Exchange (symbol: GG) and the Toronto Stock Exchange (symbol: G). In addition, the Company has five series of share purchase warrants which trade on the Toronto Stock Exchange; two of which also trade on the New York Stock Exchange. The Series A, B and C share purchase warrants replaced the former Wheaton share purchase warrants as of April 15, 2005, adding to the two previously existing series of Goldcorp share purchase warrants. Based on the completion of the early exercise of the existing warrants, the Company expects to receive proceeds of approximately $480 million to be used to pay down the debt undertaken on acquisition of Placer assets. In addition, the Company will issue a fraction of a new warrant for each exercised warrant.
Goldcorp’s strategy is to provide its shareholders with superior returns from high quality assets. Goldcorp has a strong and liquid balance sheet, and has not hedged or sold forward any of its future gold production.
Goldcorp is the world’s lowest cost million ounce gold producer. Gold production in 2006 is expected to approximate 2 million ounces on an annualized basis, at a total cash cost of less than $125 per ounce, taking into consideration the acquisition of Placer Dome assets from Barrick. Given the acquisition was completed on May 12, 2006, the pro-rated actual production is estimated to be 1.7 million ounces in 2006.
GOLDCORP INC. RESTATEMENT
Goldcorp Inc. (Goldcorp) is filing this amendment to its Interim Report on Form 40-F for the period ended March 31, 2006, to amend and restate the US GAAP note disclosure in its financial statements for the periods 2006 and2005. The restatement adjusts our US GAAP accounting for share purchase warrants with an exercise price denominated in a currency other than the Company’s functional currency, issued by the Company commencing in April 2002.
The Company primarily reports in Canadian GAAP and provides, in its financial statement note disclosure, a reconciliation to US GAAP. Under Canadian GAAP, all of the Company’s outstanding share purchase warrants are accounted for appropriately as equity. Based on the current interpretation of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities, share purchase warrants denominated in a currency other than the functional currency of the Company are classified and accounted for as a financial liability. The share purchase warrants did not satisfy the requirements to be scoped out as a derivative as per SFAS 133. From an economic perspective, the warrants will provide and have provided cash flow to the Company as an equity instrument. Previously, the Company was accounting for these share purchase warrants as equity based on its interpretation of SFAS 133 that they qualified for a scope exception. As a result of the SEC interpretation that these share purchase warrants did not meet the specific requirements of SFAS 133 for a scope exception, the Company has restated its first quarter 2006 and 2005 US GAAP net earnings to reflect the mark-to-market impacts related to fair valuation of these series of warrants. The restatement has no effect on the Company’s operations, cash flows, or liquidity at the ends of the respective restated periods.
The Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) has recently initiated a project on a similar issue to provide implementation guidance on determining whether a conversion option in convertible debt issued with a conversion option that has an exercise price that is denominated in a currency other than the issuer’s functional currency qualifies for the scope exception provided in SFAS 133. This would indicate that the accounting for the issue that gave rise to the Company’s amendment relating to its outstanding share purchase warrants may be revisited by the FASB.

First Quarter Report — 2006
(in United States dollars, tabular amounts in thousands, except where noted)
ACQUISITION OF VIRGINIA GOLD MINES
In December 2005, the Company announced that it had entered into an agreement with Virginia Gold Mines Inc (“Virginia”) to acquire Virginia’s Éléonore gold project in Quebec, Canada pursuant to a plan of arrangement involving Virginia. Under the agreement, shareholders of Virginia received 0.4 of a Goldcorp common share and 0.5 of a share in a new public exploration company (“New Virginia”) for each issued and outstanding Virginia share. On March 31, 2006, Goldcorp completed the acquisition of Virginia and retained the Éléonore gold project. New Virginia holds all other assets of Virginia, including net working capital, cash received prior to closing on the exercise of Virginia options and warrants, its non-Éléonore assets and a sliding scale 2% net smelter return royalty on the Éléonore project. On March 31, 2006, Goldcorp issued 19.3 million common shares, and warrants, pursuant to the transaction valued at total consideration of $406 million.
The acquisition of Virginia was originally disclosed as an asset acquisition. Upon further review, the Company concluded that the transaction should be described as a business combination as Virginia was a business whose principal operations are the exploration of mining properties. This change in description does not change the basis of the accounting for the transaction.
ACQUISITION OF CERTAIN PLACER DOME MINING ASSETS
On October 30, 2005, Goldcorp entered into an agreement with Barrick to acquire certain of Placer Dome’s Canadian and other mining assets and interests upon Barrick’s successful acquisition of Placer Dome. On March 15, 2006, Barrick acquired 100% of the outstanding shares of Placer Dome for approximately $10.0 billion in shares and cash. On May 12, 2006, Goldcorp completed the agreement with Barrick for cash of approximately $1.6 billion, subject to final adjustments. The acquisition was funded with a $250 million advance payment paid in January 2006 from cash on hand. The remainder was paid upon closing by drawing down on credit facilities in the amount of $1.3 billion. Goldcorp has acquired Placer Dome’s interests in the Campbell (100%), Porcupine (51%) and Musselwhite (68%) gold mines in Canada, and the La Coipa (50%) gold/silver mine in Chile. Goldcorp has also acquired a 40% interest in the Pueblo Viejo gold development project in the Dominican Republic, together with Placer Dome’s interest in its Canadian exploration properties, including the Mount Milligan copper/gold deposit in British Columbia. On April 19, 2006, Goldcorp entered into an agreement with Atlas Cromwell Ltd (“Atlas”) to sell certain of Goldcorp’s recently acquired Canadian exploration interests in exchange for preference shares convertible into 240 million common shares of Atlas at a notional price of C$0.50 per share for total notional consideration of C$120 million. These assets include Placer Dome’s former interests in Mt. Milligan, Berg, Toodoggone, Maze and Howard’s Pass. On completion of the transaction, and assuming 100% conversion of the preferred shares of Atlas, Goldcorp would own an 82% equity interest in Atlas on an issued and outstanding basis (76% fully diluted).
Upon Barrick gaining control of Placer Dome on January 19, 2006, Goldcorp initiated its integration plan. The integration process of the Placer Dome mines is well underway which will allow the Company to maximize on synergies and create significant shareholder value.
This business combination will be accounted for as a purchase transaction, with Goldcorp being identified as the acquirer and the Placer Dome operations as the acquiree. The results of operations of the acquired assets will be included in the consolidated financial statements of Goldcorp from the date of acquisition. After consummation of the proposed acquisition of Placer Dome operations and assets, Goldcorp will complete an exercise to value the identifiable assets and liabilities acquired, including any goodwill that may arise in the acquisition.
ACQUISITION OF WHEATON RIVER MINERALS LTD
In December 2004, Goldcorp and Wheaton announced a take-over bid by Goldcorp for Wheaton on the basis of one Goldcorp share for every four Wheaton shares. On February 14, 2005, the minimum two-thirds bid requirement under the terms of the Goldcorp offer was satisfied. With conditions met, a special $0.50 per share cash dividend, totaling approximately $95 million, was paid to existing Goldcorp shareholders. Goldcorp included, with the exception of net earnings, 100% of Wheaton’s operating results from February 14 to April 15, 2005. Net earnings for this period include 82% of Wheaton’s operating results. On April 15, 2005, Goldcorp acquired the

remaining 18% of Wheaton. A non-controlling interest was assigned to the 18% interest in Wheaton that Goldcorp did not own from February 14 to April 15, 2005 upon which date this non-controlling interest was eliminated. Total consideration amounted to $2.235 billion, including acquisition costs, satisfied by the issuance of 143.8 million Goldcorp shares.

Review of Financial Results:
Goldcorp was transformed during February, 2005 by the acquisition of Wheaton, which resulted in a substantial increase in revenues, gold production and sales, earnings, cash flows and assets. Also effective April 1, 2005, the Company discontinued its previous practice of holding back from sale approximately one-third of mine production. The first quarter 2006 financial results increased significantly compared to the corresponding period from the prior year as a result of a full three months of operating results from the Wheaton operations, combined with the sale of all production at higher realized metal prices.

The Red Lake mine produced 121,300 ounces of gold, compared with 198,500 ounces for the corresponding period last year. The reduced production relates to lower ore grades and re-alignment of the mining plan and sequence. This was done in order to allow the significant new development at depth in support of the shaft and to accommodate the integration of the Red Lake and Campbell operations. The average mill feed grade was 59 grams/tonne compared to an unusually high 104 grams/tonne in 2005. Recoveries were steady at 97%. The Canadian dollar was approximately 2% stronger relative to the United States dollar, compared to the fourth quarter of 2005, which negatively impacted the total cash costs per ounce. All these factors resulted in cash costs of $130 per gold ounce in the first quarter of 2006, compared to $81 per gold ounce in the first quarter of 2005. Previously, the Company had adopted a policy of holding back from sale approximately one-third of mine production. This practice was discontinued effective April 1, 2005 and the gold bullion on hand at that date was sold during the second quarter.
The expansion project progressed well during the quarter as development work required to connect the new shaft to the existing mine moved ahead. The sinking of the shaft was steady and was deepened by 155 meters in the first quarter, bringing the depth to 1,563 meters as at March 31, 2006. The expanded mill will be ready for operation in mid-2007 and the expansion project is on track for completion in late 2007.
Planning continues at the Red Lake Mine to integrate the Campbell Mine acquired from Placer Dome. Various activities have taken place during the first quarter, including developing potential synergies, reviewing the organizational structure, establishing a new senior management team, initiating strategic business planning, and advancing underground development. Development is being driven from each mine to establish a connection between the two mines at the 34-36 level early in the third quarter.

(1)   Alumbrera’s operations are included in Goldcorp’s operating results for the period subsequent to February 14, 2005, the date of acquisition of Wheaton.
 
(2)   The calculation of total cash costs per ounce of gold for Alumbrera is net of by-product copper sales revenue. If copper production were treated as a co-product, average total cash costs at Alumbrera for the three months ended March 31, 2006 would be $162 per ounce of gold and $1.04 per pound of copper (March 31, 2005 – $172 per ounce of gold and $0.68 per pound of copper).
 
(3)   The realized metal prices are above spot prices, due to price adjustments on sales receivables in the higher price environment.
During the first quarter, the stripping ratio increased to 3.4 from an average of 2.3 in the fourth quarter of 2005, in line with the planned mining sequence. It is expected to average 3.0 in 2006. Mill throughput for the quarter, which included approximately 2.8 million tonnes of stockpiled ore, was lower due to a planned shutdown that was delayed into the first quarter of 2006.
Total cash costs decreased in the first quarter to minus $1,310 per ounce of gold, net of by-product copper credits, compared to minus $389 per ounce during the same period last year. This decrease in total cash costs resulted primarily from a 100% improvement in the copper price to an average of $3.25 per pound.
Production in the first quarter was 62,300 ounces of gold and 40.8 million pounds of copper and sales were 51,500 ounces of gold and 33.5 million pounds of copper. The difference between production and sales is due to normal timing differences in shipments and delays in the transfer of title which is a requirement for revenue recognition.
The 8% production expansion of the concentrator to a 40 million tonne per annum milling capacity (Goldcorp’s share 15 million tonnes) continues on schedule. The expansion involves the installation and commissioning of an additional 6.7 MW ball mill and ancillary equipment. The capital cost of the concentrator expansion is estimated at $16 million (Goldcorp’s share – $6 million) with commissioning still on target for the end of 2006.
Open pit production for the first quarter was 8% above expectations due to waste dump design changes and haul distance optimization for the haul truck fleet.
Delineation drilling continues within the pit area providing further encouragement that the pit life may be extended marginally in conjunction with the use of slightly higher metal prices.

Luismin achieved record production levels during the first quarter due to the increased mill throughput as a result of the 30% increase in mill capacity at San Dimas in 2005. A total of 47,800 ounces of gold were produced in the first quarter of 2006, an increase of 20% over the 40,000 ounces of gold for the corresponding period in the prior year. In addition, 2,191,900 ounces of silver were produced, 16% more than the 1,894,000 ounces produced in the corresponding period in 2005. Cash costs were 19% lower than the fourth quarter of 2005 due to increased utilization of the mill capacity and greater silver cost credits, however they were higher than the comparable period of 2005 due to somewhat lower grades.
Exploration activities continued in the San Dimas district, confirming the extension of the high grade mineralization in the Roberta, Robertita, Marinas, Castellana and Santa Lucia veins within the high grade zone area in the Central Block with the deeper level exhibiting wider and richer mineralization. Exploration work continues on the underground drives which will provide essential infrastructure for drilling and drifting to increase the proven and probable reserves.
At the Nukay project, the extensive exploration program underway is achieving good results with higher grade underground ore being delineated.

(1)   Gold recovery is determined when the individual leach pads are reclaimed and production is reconciled.
 
(2)   Tonnes of ore processed each quarter do not necessarily correlate to ounces produced during the quarter, as there is a time delay between placing tonnes on the leach pad and pouring ounces of gold.
During the first quarter of 2006, the Amapari mine produced 20,400 ounces of gold and sold 22,600 ounces of gold.
Ore processing and gold production were below expectations due to the late commissioning of the spent ore reclaimer and the early onset of the Amazonian wet season. These issues impacted ore crushing and stacking productivity and tonnage placed under leach. Gold recoveries from leach pads were lower than expected as optimization of the agglomeration process is taking longer than planned.
Mining of ore and waste from a total of four pits continued on plan during the quarter, with 3.1 million tonnes of waste removed and 362,400 tonnes of ore mined.
Total cash costs for the quarter were $464 per ounce, which includes the build up of costs on the leach pad in 2005 that formed part of the opening work-in-progress inventory. These costs continued to be negatively impacted by the strong Brazilian currency, which has appreciated against the United States dollar by 7% since January 1, 2006 as well as the lower than expected recoveries and lower than planned tonnes placed under leach.
Work programs are underway to improve operating practices and efficiencies with ore crushing, agglomeration, stacking and leaching. Improvements were made to the operation during the quarter including the commissioning of the spent ore reclaimer and process water neutralization plant.
Exploration work continued on a number of projects adjacent to the existing mine infrastructure and within the tenement package. Diamond drilling at Urucum East has continued to intersect encouraging results. Drilling commenced at the Vila do Meio project testing the significance of several gold intersections encountered during previous exploration drilling in the area for iron ore mineralization. Ground geophysical surveys were completed at the Timbo and Bananeira projects and the untested gap between the Tapereba C and Urucum ore bodies. Several anomalies were identified by these surveys, which will be drill tested in the second quarter .

The Peak mine sold 35,300 ounces of gold for the first quarter compared with 27,800 ounces sold for the corresponding period in the prior year. At recent copper prices more copper ore is economic resulting in another copper production record for a single quarter. Plant capacity was maintained at the increased rate of 700,000 tonnes per annum for the quarter with an expected further increase to 730,000 tonnes per annum for the second quarter. Further plant de-bottlenecking continues with the upgrade of the gravity circuit, increased capacity of the copper circuit, and the installation of new tailing lines. Recoveries continue to improve even at the higher throughput, however relative recoveries were down from the fourth quarter of 2005 due to the lower gold grade. These improvements, combined with higher gold and copper prices, significantly improved the earnings from operations for the quarter. The total cash costs of $192 per gold ounce were a result of the above noted mill improvements and higher by-product credits.
Exploration work and delineation drilling continues to focus on New Cobar, Peak Deeps and Perseverance Zone D.

(1)   Tonnes of ore processed do not correlate directly to ounces produced during the quarter as there is a time delay between placing ore on the leach pad and producing gold.
The Wharf Mine produced 9,900 ounces of gold in the first quarter of 2006 compared with 17,700 ounces of gold in the first quarter of 2005. The lower production is a result of higher silver content in the ore thus slowing throughput in the refinery. Despite the decrease in production there is considerable gold in circuit waiting to be refined. Wharf sold 11,800 ounces of gold during the quarter compared with 34,300 ounces sold during the same period of 2005. The decrease is due to the discontinuation of the policy in 2005 of holding back from sale a portion of the production and selling the gold bullion inventory on hand. Minor plant modifications of the strip circuit, designed to increase the metal production from inventory were completed by the end of the first quarter which will eliminate refinery constrictions caused by higher silver grades. Total cash costs for the quarter were $315 per ounce, compared to $282 per ounce during the first quarter of 2005, primarily as a result of the lower gold sales and slightly lower grade.

(1)   Silver Wheaton’s operations are included in Goldcorp’s operating results for the period subsequent to February 14, 2005, the date of acquisition of Wheaton.
As of January 1, 2006, Goldcorp owned 59% of Silver Wheaton and on March 30, 2006, this interest increased to 62% as a result of the amendment to the existing Silver agreement. Goldcorp agreed to increase the number of ounces of silver to be delivered over the 25 year contract period by 100 million ounces to 220 million ounces, and waived any capital expenditure contributions previously required by Silver Wheaton. In consideration for these amendments, Silver Wheaton issued 18 million common shares valued at $116 million, and a $20 million non-interest bearing promissory note payable to Goldcorp and due in March 2007.
In March 2006, Silver Wheaton entered into an agreement with Glencore International AG, to purchase 4.75 million ounces of silver per year for a period of 20 years, based on production from their Yauliyacu mining operation in Peru. Total upfront consideration paid was $285 million. In addition, a cash payment of $3.90 per ounce of silver delivered under the contract is due, subject to an inflationary adjustment.
In April 2006, Silver Wheaton closed a C$200 million public offering of 16.7 million common shares at a price of C$12.00 per share, on a bought deal basis. This transaction decreased Goldcorp’s ownership interest in Silver Wheaton to 57%. This dilution of the Company’s interest will give rise to a non-taxable dilution gain of approximately $60 million that will be recognized in earnings in the second quarter ending June 30, 2006.

First Quarter Report — 2006
(in United States dollars, tabular amounts in thousands, except where noted)
PROJECT DEVELOPMENT REVIEW
Los Filos Project
During the quarter, a feasibility study was completed, combining the Los Filos and El Bermejal deposits as a twin open pit operation with a single heap leach pad facility. The combined deposits will be referred to as the Los Filos Project going forward. The mine reserves and resources total over 5.0 million ounces with 4.51 million ounces in proven and probable reserve status.
The Los Filos and El Bermejal deposits will be developed together with two different methods of ore processing. Higher grade ore from within the Los Filos deposit will be crushed to 19mm and agglomerated before being conveyor stacked and heap leached. Lower grade ore from Los Filos and El Bermejal deposits will be hauled from the open pit directly to the leach pad to be bulk heap leached. The recovery solution will be treated to produce a final gold doré product on site.
Project construction is well advanced and expected to be completed by the end of 2006 with commercial production planned to start in the second quarter of 2007. Commercial production for 2007 is expected to be 200,000 ounces of gold rising to 350,000 ounces in 2008. Approximately 70% of all project capital has been either spent or committed to date. The access road is completed, electrical power is energized, the water supply is 80% complete, pit stripping is 35% complete, and the ore leaching facilities 40% complete.
Pre-stripping of the Los Filos pit is progressing well, with 7.8 million tonnes of waste mined as of March 31, 2006. The El Bermejal pit development was started with clearing and grubbing activities and haul road construction. The heap leach pad construction, including the bedding soil and liner placement is well underway. All major equipment for process facilities has been procured and deliveries started as per schedule.
Capital expenditures to March 31, 2006 amounted to $112 million with$28 million being expended during the three months ended March 31, 2006.
Éléonore Project
On March 31, 2006, Goldcorp completed the acquisition of Virginia and its Éléonore gold project. The Éléonore property is located in the north-east corner of the Opinaca Reservoir in the James Bay area of the Province of Quebec, Canada. Previous work on the property consisted mainly of surface geological interpretation and subsequently 56 kilometers of drill holes in exploration drilling.
During the first quarter, preparation for the integration into Goldcorp proceeded with senior staff being assigned to the project, review of documentation and data, and meetings held with various parties involved in the project including Government and First Nation representatives. Further integration activities in the second quarter will include establishment of administrative and human resources programs, transfer of employees, continuation of the extensive drilling program, completion of key studies, project planning, schedule establishment and budget preparation.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis
(in United States dollars, tabular amounts in thousands, except where noted)
EXPENSES
                 
    Three Months Ended  
    March 31     March 31  
    2006     2005  
 
Depreciation and depletion
  $ 45,767     $ 17,579  
Corporate administration
    8,548       4,009  
Exploration
    3,920       1,517  
Depreciation and depletion, which relates to mining activities, increased to $45.8 million for the quarter, compared to $17.6 million in 2005. The significant increase in depreciation and depletion is due to the acquisition of Wheaton mining assets effective February 15, 2005 and the resulting fair value allocation to these assets.
Corporate administration increased during the first quarter of 2006, compared to the same period in 2005, due primarily to increased corporate activity relating to acquisition growth.
A total of $3.9 million (2005 – $1.5 million) was invested in exploration during the quarter. Part of the increase is due to the fact that the prior year amount only included Wheaton’s operating results from February 15, 2005 onwards.

In the first quarter of 2006, the stock option expense relates to the normal vesting of options. As a result of the acquisition of Wheaton, Goldcorp stock options which existed at December 31, 2004 became fully vested during the quarter and $5.3 million was expensed in 2005. Corporate transaction costs pertaining to the acquisition of Wheaton in the amount of $2.9 million, including severance and restructuring of insurance policies were expensed in 2005. There were no corporate transaction costs in the first quarter of 2006.
INCOME AND MINING TAXES
Income and mining taxes for the three months ended March 31, 2006 totaled $46.6 million, approximately 32% of earnings before taxes. In 2005, income and mining taxes were $16.0 million, or 32% of earnings before taxes.

First Quarter Report — 2006
(in United States dollars, tabular amounts in thousands, except where noted)
NON-CONTROLLING INTERESTS
The non-controlling interest relates to Goldcorp’s ownership of its subsidiary company, Silver Wheaton. This interest increased from 59% to 62% as at March 30, 2006, as a result of the amendment to the existing Silver agreement. Goldcorp agreed to increase the number of ounces of silver to be delivered over the 25 year contract by 100 million ounces to 220 million ounces, and to waive any capital expenditure contributions previously required by Silver Wheaton. In consideration for these amendments, Silver Wheaton issued to Goldcorp 18 million common shares valued at $116 million and a $20 million non-interest bearing promissory note. As a result of this transaction, Goldcorp’s non-controlling interest balance increased by $32.3 million, mining interests increased by $46.3 million and future income tax liability increased by $14.0 million.
The non-controlling interest’s share of net earnings for the three months ended March 31, 2006 amounted to $5.7 million.
During the three months ended March 31, 2005, Goldcorp acquired an 82% interest in Wheaton, which resulted in an 18% non-controlling interest. Goldcorp acquired the 18% non-controlling interest’s share of Wheaton on April 15, 2005. In addition, Goldcorp had a non-controlling interest in Silver Wheaton. The non-controlling interest’s share of net earnings for the three months ended March 31, 2005 amounted to $4.2 million.
NON-GAAP MEASURE – TOTAL CASH COST PER GOLD OUNCE CALCULATION
The Company has included a non-GAAP performance measure, total cash cost per gold ounce, throughout this document. The Company reports total cash costs on a sales basis. In the gold mining industry this is a common performance measure but does not have any standardized meaning, and is a non-GAAP measure. The Company follows the recommendations of the Gold Institute standard. The Company believes that, in addition to conventional measures, prepared in accordance with GAAP, certain investors use this information to evaluate the Company’s performance and ability to generate cash flow. Accordingly, it is intended to provide additional information and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of performance prepared in accordance with GAAP. The following table provides a reconciliation of total cash costs per ounce to the financial statements:

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
At March 31, 2006, the Company held cash and cash equivalents of $170 million (December 31, 2005 – $562 million) and working capital of $178 million (December 31, 2005 – $582 million). The decrease in consolidated cash and cash equivalents primarily resulted from Goldcorp’s payment of $250 million to Barrick relating to the acquisition of certain Placer assets as well as Silver Wheaton’s cash payment of $245 million to Glencore with respect to the acquisition of the Yauliyacu silver purchase contract.
The Company has debt capacity available totaling $1.4 billion made up of three separate credit facilities including a $500 million revolving credit facility, a $550 million bridge facility and a $350 million revolving credit facility. The facilities are unsecured and available to finance acquisitions and for general corporate purposes. Amounts drawn incur interest at LIBOR plus 0.625% to 1.125% per annum dependent upon the Company’s leverage ratio, increasing by an additional 0.125% per annum if the total amount drawn down exceeds 50% of the facility amount. Undrawn amounts are subject to a 0.15% to 0.25% per annum commitment fee dependent on the
goldcorp     |     15

 


 

Management’s Discussion and Analysis
(in United States dollars, tabular amounts in thousands, except where noted)
Company’s leverage ratio. Amounts drawn on the $500 credit facility are required to be refinanced or repaid by July 29, 2010. Amounts drawn on the $350 million facility will be required to be refinanced or repaid within two years of the closing date and amounts drawn on the $550 million facility will be required to be refinanced or repaid within one year of the closing date. All facilities were undrawn as at March 31, 2006. On May 12, 2006, $1.3 billion of these facilities were drawn down to fund the acquisition of certain Placer Dome assets.
In the opinion of management, the working capital at March 31, 2006, together with cash flows from operations, are sufficient to support the Company’s normal operating requirements on an ongoing basis.
Total assets increased to $5,055 million at March 31, 2006 from $4,066 million at December 31, 2005, primarily as a result of the acquisition of Virginia, effective March 31, 2006, and the addition of a silver purchase agreement between Silver Wheaton and Glencore’s Yauliyacu mining operation.
During the quarter, the Company generated operating cash flows of $74 million, compared with cash generated operating activities of $80 million during the same period of 2005. Unfavorable non-cash operating working capital movements during the quarter of $66 million resulted primarily from cash tax payments in 2006 and increases in accounts receivable due to timing and higher metal prices.
During the three months ended March 31, 2006, the Company disposed of marketable securities for a net gain of $2.6 million and invested a total of $67 million in mining interests, including $18 million at Red Lake, $37 million at the Luismin operations and $6 million at Amapari.
During the first quarter of 2006, the Company paid a monthly dividend of $0.015 per share, resulting in total cash dividend payments for the quarter of $15.3 million.
As of May 12, 2005, there were 364 million common shares of the Company issued and outstanding. The Company had 9.8 million stock options outstanding under its share option plan. In addition, the Company had 7.0 million share purchase warrants outstanding (exchangeable for 14.5 million common shares) and 159.6 million Series A, B and C share purchase warrants outstanding (exchangeable for 39.9 million common shares).
Derivative instruments
The Company employs, from time to time, interest rate and Canadian dollar forward and option contracts to manage exposure to fluctuations in metal prices and foreign currency exchange rates.
Commitments
Commitments exist for expenditures for mining interests of approximately $173 million, primarily relating to the Red Lake expansion and construction at Los Filos.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES
Income and mining taxes
The provision for income and mining taxes is based on the liability method. Future taxes arise from the recognition of the tax consequences of temporary differences by applying enacted or substantively enacted tax rates applicable to future years to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts and the tax bases of certain assets and liabilities, and for tax losses and other deductions carried forward. The Company records a valuation allowance against any portion of those future income tax assets that it believes will, more likely than not, fail to be realized.
Mining interests
Mining interests are the most significant assets of the Company, representing $3,753 million at March 31, 2006, and represent capitalized expenditures related to the exploration and development of mining properties and related plant and equipment. Capitalized

(in United States dollars, tabular amounts in thousands, except where noted)
costs are depreciated and depleted using either a unit-of-sale method over the estimated economic life of the mine to which they relate, or using the straight-line method over their estimated useful lives.
The costs associated with mining properties are separately allocated to reserves, resources and exploration potential, and include acquired interests in production, development and exploration stage properties representing the fair value at the time they were acquired. The values of such mineral properties are primarily driven by the nature and amount of material interests believed to be contained or potentially contained, in properties to which they relate.
The Company reviews and evaluates its mining interests for impairment at least annually or when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the related carrying amounts may not be recoverable. An impairment is considered to exist if the total estimated future undiscounted cash flows are less than the carrying amount of the assets. An impairment loss is measured and recorded based on discounted estimated future cash flows. Future cash flows are estimated based on expected future production, commodity prices, operating costs and capital costs.
Reclamation and closure costs obligations
Reclamation and closure costs obligations have been estimated based on the Company’s interpretation of current regulatory requirements, however changes in regulatory requirements and new information may result in revisions to estimates. The Company recognizes the fair value of liabilities for reclamation and closure costs obligations in the period in which they are incurred. A corresponding increase to the carrying amount of the related assets is generally recorded and depreciated over the life of the asset.
Goodwill and impairment testing
The acquisition of Wheaton was accounted for using the purchase method whereby assets acquired and liabilities assumed were recorded at their fair market values as of the date of acquisition and any excess of the purchase price over such fair value was recorded as goodwill. Goodwill was identified and allocated to reporting units by preparing estimates of the fair value of each reporting unit and comparing this amount to the fair value of assets and liabilities in the reporting unit.
The Company evaluates, on at least an annual basis, the carrying amount of goodwill to determine whether current events and circumstances indicate that such carrying amount may no longer be recoverable. To accomplish this, the Company compares the fair value of its reporting units to their carrying amounts. If the carrying value of a reporting unit exceeds its fair value, the Company compares the implied fair value of the reporting unit’s goodwill to its carrying amount, and any excess of the carrying value over the fair value is charged to operations. Assumptions underlying fair value estimates are subject to significant risks and uncertainties.
Investment in Alumbrera
The Company has joint control over Alumbrera through certain matters requiring unanimous consent in the shareholders’ agreement and, therefore, has proportionately consolidated its 37.5% share of the financial statements of Alumbrera from February 15, 2005. On this basis, the Company records its 37.5% share of the assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses of Alumbrera in these consolidated financial statements.
OVERSIGHT ROLE OF THE AUDIT COMMITTEE
The Audit Committee reviews, with management and the external auditors, the Company’s quarterly Management’s Discussion and Analysis and related consolidated financial statements and approves the release of such information to shareholders. For each audit or quarterly review, the external auditors prepare a report for members of the Audit Committee summarizing key areas, significant issues and material control weaknesses encountered, if any.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis
(in United States dollars, tabular amounts in thousands, except where noted)
OUTLOOK
Expenditures for mining interests for the remainder of the year are forecast to approximate $230 million, which primarily relate to the Red Lake expansion and the completion of the construction at Los Filos.
The Company has not hedged or sold forward any of its future gold production.
Goldcorp is the world’s lowest cost million ounce gold producer. Gold production in 2006 is expected to approximate 2 million ounces on an annualized basis, at a total cash cost of less than $125 per ounce assuming the acquisition of Placer Dome assets from Barrick. Given the acquisition was completed on May 12, 2006, the pro-rated production is estimated to be 1.7 million ounces.
SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
On April 20, 2006, Silver Wheaton closed a C$200 million public offering of 16.7 million common shares at a price of C$12.00 per share. This transaction resulted in a decrease in Goldcorp’s ownership in Silver Wheaton from 62% to 57%. This dilution of the Company’s interest will give rise to a non-taxable dilution gain of approximately $60 million that will be recognized in operations in the second quarter ending June 30, 2006.

1.   DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND NATURE OF OPERATIONS
 
    Goldcorp Inc (“Goldcorp” or “the Company”) is a leading gold producer engaged in gold mining and related activities including exploration, extraction, processing and reclamation. As a result of the 2005 acquisition of Wheaton River Minerals Ltd (“Wheaton”), the Company’s assets are comprised of the Red Lake gold mine in Canada, a 37.5% interest in the Alumbrera gold/copper mine in Argentina, the Luismin gold/silver mines in Mexico, the Amapari gold mine in Brazil, the Peak gold mine in Australia, and the Wharf gold mine in the United States. Significant development projects include the expansion of the existing Red Lake mine, Los Filos gold project in Mexico and the Éléonore gold project in Canada (note 3). Goldcorp also owns a 62% interest in Silver Wheaton Corp (“Silver Wheaton”), a publicly traded silver mining company (note 14). In addition, on May 12, 2006, the Company acquired certain assets from Barrick Gold Corporation (“Barrick”) following Barrick’s acquisition of Placer Dome Inc (“Placer Dome”), including Placer Dome’s interests in the Campbell, Porcupine and Musselwhite gold mines in Canada, the La Coipa gold/silver mine in Chile, and the Pueblo Viejo development project in Dominican Republic (note 4).
 
2.   SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
 
    These unaudited interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared by the Company in accordance with Canadian generally accepted accounting principles (“Canadian GAAP”).

3.   BUSINESS COMBINATION – VIRGINIA GOLD MINES INC
 
    On March 31, 2006, the Company completed the acquisition of Virginia Gold Mines Inc (“Virginia”). Goldcorp issued 19.3 million common shares at a price of $20.63 per share. This issue price is the five-day average share price of Goldcorp common shares at December 5, 2005, the date of announcement.
 
    Under the agreement, shareholders of Virginia received 0.4 of a Goldcorp common share and 0.5 of a share in a new public exploration company (Virginia Mines Inc, “New Virginia”) for each issued and outstanding Virginia share. New Virginia holds all other assets of Virginia including net working capital, cash received prior to closing from the exercise of Virginia options and warrants, non-Éléonore exploration assets, and a sliding scale 2% net smelter return royalty on the Éléonore project.
 
    This acquisition was accounted for under the purchase method as a business combination with Goldcorp identified as the acquirer and Virginia as the acquiree. The allocation of the purchase price of Virginia is summarized in the following table:
         
Purchase price:
       
Common shares of Goldcorp issued to acquire 100% of Virginia (19.3 million shares)

4.   BUSINESS COMBINATION – PLACER DOME MINING ASSETS
 
    On October 30, 2005, Goldcorp entered into an agreement with Barrick to acquire certain of Placer Dome’s Canadian and other mining assets and interests upon Barrick’s successful acquisition of Placer Dome. On March 15, 2006, Barrick acquired 100% of the outstanding shares of Placer Dome for approximately $10.0 billion in shares and cash. On May 12, 2006, Goldcorp completed the agreement with Barrick for cash of approximately $1.6 billion, subject to adjustment. The acquisition was funded with a $250 million advance payment paid in January 2006 from cash on hand. The remainder was paid upon closing by drawing down on credit facilities (note 7) in the amount of $1.3 billion. Goldcorp has acquired Placer Dome’s interests in the Campbell (100%), Porcupine (51%) and Musselwhite (68%) gold mines in Canada, and the La Coipa (50%) gold/silver mine in Chile. Goldcorp has also acquired a 40% interest in the Pueblo Viejo gold development project in the Dominican Republic, together with Placer Dome’s interest in its Canadian exploration properties, including the Mount Milligan copper/gold deposit in British Columbia. On April 19, 2006, Goldcorp entered into an agreement with Atlas Cromwell Ltd (“Atlas”) to sell certain of Goldcorp’s recently acquired Canadian exploration interests in exchange for preference shares convertible into 240 million common shares of Atlas at a notional price of C$0.50 per share for total notional consideration of C$120 million. These assets include Placer Dome’s former interests in Mt. Milligan, Berg, Toodoggone, Maze and Howard’s Pass.
 
    This business combination will be accounted for as a purchase transaction, with Goldcorp being identified as the acquirer and the Placer Dome operations as the acquiree. The results of operations of the acquired assets will be included in the consolidated financial statements of Goldcorp from the date of acquisition. Goldcorp will complete a valuation of the identifiable assets and liabilities acquired, including any goodwill that may arise in the acquisition. Based on the December 31, 2005 balance for the Placer Dome assets, a preliminary purchase allocation is as follows:
         
Purchase price, subject to final adjustments
       
Cash
  $ 1,585,000

      On March 30, 2006, Goldcorp and Silver Wheaton amended their silver purchase contract, increasing the minimum number of ounces of silver to be delivered over the 25 year period by 100 million ounces, to 220 million ounces, and waiving any capital expenditure contributions previously required to be paid by Silver Wheaton. In consideration for these amendments, Silver Wheaton issued to Goldcorp 18 million common shares, valued at the February 13, 2006 closing price of $6.42 per share, and a $20 million non-interest bearing promissory note due on March 30, 2007. As a result, at March 31, 2006, Goldcorp owned 62% of Silver Wheaton’s common shares. This transaction resulted in an increase to silver mining interests of $32,323,000 net of future income tax liabilities.

(a)   On March 23, 2006, Silver Wheaton entered into an agreement to purchase 4.75 million ounces of silver per year for a period of 20 years, based on the production from Glencore International AG’s (“Glencore”) Yauliyacu mining operations in Peru, for an upfront payment of $285 million, comprised of $245 million in cash and a $40 million promissory note (note 7). In addition, a cash payment of $3.90 per ounce of silver delivered under the contract is due (subject to an inflationary adjustment commencing in 2009).
 
(b)   Silver Wheaton has an agreement to purchase all of the silver produced by Lundin Mining Corporation’s Zinkgruvan mine in Sweden for a per ounce cash payment of the lesser of $3.90 and the prevailing market price, subject to adjustment.

7.   BANK CREDIT FACILITIES AND PROMISSORY NOTES
  (a)   On July 29, 2005, Goldcorp entered into a $500 million revolving credit facility with a syndicate of five lenders. The facility is unsecured and available to finance acquisitions and for general corporate purposes. Amounts drawn incur interest at LIBOR plus 0.625% to 1.125% per annum dependent upon the Company’s leverage ratio, increasing by an additional 0.125% per annum if the total amount drawn under this facility exceeds $250 million. Undrawn amounts are subject to a 0.15% to 0.25% per annum commitment fee dependent on the Company’s leverage ratio. All amounts drawn are required to be refinanced or repaid by July 29, 2010. The facility was undrawn as at March 31, 2006. On May 12, 2006, $400 million of this facility was drawn down to fund the acquisition of certain Placer Dome assets (note 4).
 
  (b)   As at March 31, 2006, the Company had two committed credit facilities comprising a $550 million bridge facility and a $350 million revolving credit facility. Both facilities are unsecured, and amounts drawn down will incur interest at LIBOR plus 0.625% to 1.125% per annum dependent upon the Company’s leverage ratio, increasing by an additional 0.125% per annum if the total amount drawn under either facility exceeds 50% of the facility amount. Undrawn amounts will be subject to a 0.15% to 0.25% per annum commitment fee dependent on the Company’s leverage ratio. Amounts drawn on the $350 million facility will be required to be refinanced or repaid within two years of the closing date and amounts drawn on the $550 million facility will be required to be refinanced or repaid within one year of the closing date. On May 12, 2006, these facilities were fully drawn down to fund the acquisition of certain Placer Dome assets (note 4).
 
  (c)   The Company has an Aus$5,000,000 ($3,582,000), unsecured, revolving working capital facility for its Peak mine operations of which $nil was drawn down at March 31, 2006. The loan bears interest related to the Australian Treasury Bill rate plus 1.5% per annum.
 
  (d)   During the quarter ended March 31, 2006, Silver Wheaton entered into credit agreements to borrow a total of $125 million with repayment terms of up to five years. Amounts incur interest at LIBOR plus a spread determined by Silver Wheaton’s leverage ratio. The credit facilities are secured against Silver Wheaton’s assets including its silver purchase contracts. Total debt financing costs were $1,029,000 of which $254,000 was amortized to income during the period. On March 31, 2006, Silver Wheaton repaid $5 million of the outstanding balance. The remaining balance was repaid in April 2006 from the proceeds of a C$200 million public offering completed by Silver Wheaton on April 20, 2006 (note 14).

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
(in United States dollars, tabular amounts in thousands, except where noted — Unaudited)
  (e)   On March 23, 2006, as partial consideration for entering into the Yauliyacu silver purchase contract (note 6), Silver Wheaton issued a $40 million promissory note to Glencore, bearing interest at 3% per annum and due on July 21, 2006. The promissory note was repaid in April with proceeds from a C$200 million public offering completed by Silver Wheaton on April 20, 2006 (note 14).
8.   NON-CONTROLLING INTERESTS
 
    As a result of the Wheaton acquisition on February 14, 2005, Goldcorp acquired Wheaton’s 65% ownership of its subsidiary, Silver Wheaton. This interest decreased to 59% in December 2005 following the issuance of additional shares by Silver Wheaton to non-controlling interests. On March 30, 2006, Goldcorp and Silver Wheaton amended the silver purchase contract, increasing the minimum number of ounces of silver to be delivered over the 25 year period by 100 million ounces, to 220 million ounces, and waiving any capital expenditure contributions previously required to be paid by Silver Wheaton. In consideration for these amendments, Silver Wheaton issued to Goldcorp 18 million common shares, valued at the February 13, 2006 closing price of $6.42 per share, and a $20 million non-interest bearing promissory note due on March 30, 2007. As a result, at March 31, 2006, Goldcorp owned 62% of the Silver Wheaton’s common shares. This transaction resulted in an increase to mining interests of $46,613,000, an increase to future income tax liabilities of $14,290,000, and an increase in non-controlling interests of $32,323,000.
 
    The detail of this non-controlling interest in Silver Wheaton is as follows:

(b)   Stock Options
 
    On May 15, 2005, shareholders approved the Company’s 2005 Stock Option Plan which allows for up to 12.5 million stock options, with a maximum exercise period of ten years, to be granted to employees, officers and consultants.
 
    The Company granted 595,000 stock options during the three months ended March 31, 2006, which vest over a period of three years, are exercisable at prices ranging from C$28.84 to C$30.55 per option, expire in 2016, and have a total fair value of $3,969,000.
 
    The fair value of the options on the date of grant is determined by using an option pricing model with the following assumptions: risk-free interest rate of 3%, dividend yield of 1%, volatility factor of the expected market price of the Company’s common stock of 30%, and a weighted average expected life of the options of four years. The fair value of the options is expensed over the vesting period of the options.
 
    Compensation expense of $3,399,000 has been recognized during the three months ended March 31, 2006.

Goldcorp Inc. is amending and restating its US GAAP note disclosure in its financial statements for the years 2005, 2004 and 2003. The restatement adjusts the Company’s US GAAP accounting for share purchase warrants with an exercise price denominated in a currency other than the Company’s functional currency and is discussed further in note 13(j).
Differences between Canadian and US GAAP, as they affect the Company’s financial statements, are as follows:
(a)   Under Canadian GAAP, the Company accounted for its joint venture interests in Alumbrera on a proportionate consolidated basis. Under US GAAP, the Company is required to equity account for its investment in Alumbrera and present in operations its proportionate share of Alumbrera net earnings in accordance with US GAAP.
 
(b)   Under US GAAP (SFAS 115), the Company’s investments in securities would be classified as available-for-sale securities and carried at fair value. The unrealized holding gains on available-for-sale securities are not recognized under Canadian accounting principles, but are recognized under United States accounting principles as a component of comprehensive income and reported as a net amount in a separate component of shareholders’ equity until realized. The amounts recorded in comprehensive income for the three months ended March 31, 2006 are shown net of tax expense of $605,000 (March 31, 2005 – $1,241,000).
 
(c)   United States accounting principles do not allow for the use of contributed surplus to eliminate a deficit.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
(in United States dollars, tabular amounts in thousands, except where noted — Unaudited)
(d)   Under US GAAP, the renunciation of tax deductions to holders of flow-through shares is treated as a future tax expense rather than as a cost of issuing equity as required by Canadian accounting principles.
 
(e)   Under US GAAP, a proportionate amount of the cumulative translation adjustment account is not recognized in earnings when there is a reduction in the Company’s net investment in a subsidiary as a result of dividend distributions.
 
(f)   Under US GAAP, SFAS 130, “Reporting Comprehensive Income” establishes rules for the reporting and display of comprehensive income and its components. Comprehensive income is net income, plus certain other items that are recorded directly to shareholders’ equity such as foreign currency translation adjustments and unrealized gains (losses) on marketable securities.
 
(g)   In 2003, certain changes to income tax legislation affecting mining companies became law; however, the enabling regulations which quantify the deduction for mining taxes paid permitted by this change in legislation (which is considered to be substantively enacted for Canadian GAAP purposes) had not yet received the required approval to be considered enacted for US GAAP purposes. Consequently for US GAAP purposes the 2006 results have been adjusted to remove the benefit accrued for the deduction for income tax purposes of actual provincial and other Crown royalties and mining taxes paid as at March 31, 2006. The benefits of this change in legislation will be recognized for US GAAP purposes when the approval for the amendments to the regulations has been given. The net effect of the restatement is to increase the tax provision for the three months ended March 31, 2006, by an amount of $555,000. These legislative changes still remained in draft at March 31, 2006; the previous GAAP differences for the three months ended March 31, 2005, was $308,000.
 
(h)   Under US GAAP, the change in cumulative translation adjustment recorded in the balance sheet for Canadian GAAP is recorded in the calculation of comprehensive income for US GAAP.
 
(i)   On January 1, 2006, the Company adopted EITF 04-06, “Accounting for Stripping Costs Incurred During Production in the Mining Industry”, which contrasts the Canadian guidance EIC -160, “Stripping Costs Incurred in the Production Phase of a Mining Operation”. Under US GAAP capitalized deferred stripping is not permissible, therefore any additions to the deferred strip balance capitalized under Canadian GAAP should be expensed to cost of sales for US GAAP. The Company has adjusted for this difference prospectively from January 1, 2006, with the cumulative effect of the change in accounting policy being recorded to the opening balance of retained earnings as at January 1, 2006. The opening retained earnings adjustment is $11,152,000 net of future income tax liability of $4,780,000, providing a total decrease to mining interests of $15,932,000. For the three months ended March 31, 2006, the net effect of expensing the stripping costs for US GAAP is an increase in cost of sales of $2,688,000 net of future income tax liability recovery of $699,000.
 
(j)   Share purchase warrants
 
    For Canadian GAAP purposes, share purchase warrants are classified and accounted for as equity on the Company’s financial statements. The technical interpretation of US GAAP, in accordance with SFAS 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities, currently requires share purchase warrants with an exercise price denominated in a currency other than its functional currency be classified and accounted for as a financial liability. As a result of this interpretation, the Company has restated its March 31, 2006 and 2005 US GAAP net earnings to reflect the mark-to-market impacts related to fair valuation of these series of warrants. The net effect of the restatement is to reduce net earnings in 2006 by an amount of $457,856,000 arising from the recognition of a mark-to-market loss on the share purchase warrants (2005 – mark-to-market loss of $4,184,000). This non-cash restatement has no effect on the Company’s operations, cash flow, or liquidity for the respective restated periods.
 
(k)   Impact of recent United States accounting pronouncements
38      |      goldcorp

 


 

First Quarter Report — 2006
(in United States dollars, tabular amounts in thousands, except where noted — Unaudited)
    In May 2005, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 154, “Accounting Changes and Error Corrections, a replacement of Accounting Principles Board (“APB”) Opinion No. 20 and FASB Statement No. 3” (“SFAS No. 154”). SFAS No. 154 requires retrospective application to prior periods’ financial statements of a voluntary change in accounting principle unless it is impracticable. APB Opinion No. 20, “Accounting Changes,” previously required that most voluntary changes in accounting principle be recognized by including in net income of the period of the change the cumulative effect of changing to the new accounting principle. SFAS No. 154 became effective for the Company on January 1, 2006. The adoption of SFAS No. 154 did not have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements. The Company will continue to apply the requirements of SFAS No. 154 to any future accounting changes and error corrections.
 
    In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 123 (revised 2004), “Share Based Payment” (“SFAS No. 123(R)”). SFAS No. 123(R) supersedes APB Opinion No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees,” and amends SFAS No. 95, “Statement of Cash Flows.” Generally, the fair value approach in SFAS No. 123(R) is similar to the fair value approach described in SFAS No. 123. In 2005, the Company used the Black-Scholes formula to estimate the fair value of stock options granted to employees. The Company adopted SFAS No. 123(R), using the modified-prospective method, beginning January 1, 2006. Based on the terms of the Company’s plans, it did not have a cumulative effect related to its plans. The Company also elected to continue to estimate the fair value of stock options using the Black-Scholes formula. In the first quarter of 2006, the adoption of SFAS No. 123(R) did not have a material impact on first quarter stock-based compensation expense. Further, the adoption of SFAS No. 123(R) will not have a material impact on the Company’s future stock-based compensation expense.
 
    In November 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 151, “Inventory Costs, an amendment of Accounting Research Bulletin No. 43, Chapter 4” (“SFAS No. 151”). SFAS No. 151 requires that abnormal amounts of idle facility expense, freight, handling costs and wasted material (spoilage) be recorded as current period charges and that the allocation of fixed production overheads to inventory is based on the normal capacity of the production facilities. SFAS No. 151 became effective for the Company on January 1, 2006. The adoption of SFAS No. 151 did not have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.
14. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
On April 20, 2006, Silver Wheaton closed a C$200 million public offering of 16.7 million common shares at a price of C$12.00 per share. This transaction resulted in a decrease in Goldcorp’s ownership in Silver Wheaton from 62% to 57%. This dilution of the Company’s interest will give rise to a non-taxable dilution gain of approximately $60 million that will be recognized in earnings in the second quarter ending June 30, 2006.
