NEWS RELEASE

2002 THIRD QUARTER RESULTS

EXCELLENT OPERATING PERFORMANCE AND RECORD REVENUES
NET LIQUID ASSETS GREW BY $275,000 PER DAY
INCREASED 2002 RED LAKE FORECASTS

(All amounts in this news release are expressed in United States dollars (US$) unless otherwise stated)

Toronto, October 23, 2002 – GOLDCORP INC. (GG:NYSE; G:TSX) is pleased to announce that for the third quarter (ending September 30th) 2002, the Company generated $0.09 and $0.18 per share, of earnings and cash flow, respectively. Management believes it is important to provide clarity and certainty to investors concerning the business of the corporation and its future. As a result, these results include a $0.02 per share charge as a result of an increase in the provision for post closure liabilities at the Wharf Mine. Excluding the effect of this, we recorded our best quarterly performance since we initiated our corporate restructuring in early 1994 (excluding one time anomalous investment gains in 1994). Bullion adjusted earnings and cash flow were, respectively, $0.10 and $0.21 per share. Gold production totaled 162,982 ounces at a cash cost of $86 per ounce sold. If stock options had been expensed, earnings for the quarter would have declined by $0.01 to $0.08 per share based on Canadian and United States Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP). The CEO and CFO of Goldcorp confirm the veracity and soundness of these financial and operating results and have provided the board of directors with a signed statement supporting this.

RED LAKE MINE – FURTHER INCREASE IN 2002 PRODUCTION FORECASTS

During the third quarter, 2002 the Red Lake Mine had its second most productive quarter ever! The quarterly production of 140,158 ounces of gold at a cash cost of $63 per ounce has been exceeded only by the first quarter 2001 production (146,512 ounces at $54 per ounce). The third quarter, 2002 production included 8,732 ounces from concentrate. For the first nine months of 2002 the Red Lake Mine produced 395,532 ounces at a cash cost of $63 per ounce. As a result of this strong performance, the 2002 total forecast production for Red Lake has been increased (for the second time this year) by 5% to 525,000 ounces at a cash cost of $65 per ounce (from 500,000 ounces at a cash cost of $65 per ounce).

A SOLID GOLD, INDUSTRY LEADING BALANCE SHEET
Gold holdings increased by 25% to 178,911 ounces
Net Liquid Assets grew $275,000 per day = 77% of Operating Cash Flow

By the end of the third quarter, 2002 Goldcorp’s cash and short term investments had increased by $17.1 million to $235.5 million and the Company remains Debt Free and Unhedged. The Company also continued to strengthen its balance sheet to reflect the belief that Gold is Money, by increasing its gold holdings by 25% or 35,316 ounces to a total of 178,911 ounces (5.56 tonnes). The after tax value of the increase in gold holdings during the third quarter 2002 was $8.3 million. The after tax value of the Company’s total liquid assets (cash, short term investments and gold bullion) therefore increased by $25.4 million during the quarter, representing an increase of $275,000 per day, indicating that the Company effectively converted 77% of its operating cash flow into liquid assets after the payment of all operating expenses, capital and dividends on a post tax basis.!

 


 

     
Goldcorp Inc. — 2002 Third Quarter Results   Page 2

Goldcorp’s gold bullion holdings continued to be increased in two ways. First, the Company held back from sale 15,326 ounces (9%) of its quarterly gold production. To date, a total of 78,751 ounces of gold have been accumulated in this manner. This bullion is carried on the balance sheet at cost, in accordance with Canadian GAAP. Second, Goldcorp purchased 19,990 ounces of gold bullion during the quarter at an average price of $306.25 per ounce (compared to the gold price of $323.70 per ounce at quarter end). To date, a total of 100,160 ounces of gold bullion has been accumulated in this manner. Fluctuations in the mark to market value of this portion of the gold bullion holdings are accounted for as unrealized gains or losses and reported quarterly in accordance with Canadian GAAP. In the first nine months of 2002 Goldcorp increased its gold bullion holdings by 143,850 ounces representing an amount equal to 31% of total production during that period.

Goldcorp’s gold bullion holdings are greater than the gold reserves of 39 (or 35%) of the 112 countries which own gold. Its holdings are greater than the gold reserves of Ireland or of Hong Kong and Luxembourg combined.

FINANCIAL AND OPERATING RESULTS
Third Quarter Ended September 30, 2002

Revenues of $49.6 million were at the highest ever quarterly level. Earnings were $16.3 million, or $0.09 per share, compared with $10.6 million or $0.06 per share, in the third quarter, 2001. Cash flow from operations was $32.9 million, or $0.18 per share compared with $17.9 million, or $0.11 per share, in the third quarter of 2001. Had the gold which was produced, but not sold, during the quarter been sold, earnings per share would have increased to $18.0 million, or $0.10 per share, while cash flow per share would have increased to $37.6 million, or $0.21 per share. The increased earnings compared to the third quarter 2001 resulted primarily from the higher gold production and a higher realized gold price. Earnings were also positively impacted by approximately $0.02 per share as a result of a number of non-operating items including, the increased revenue from interest, a $2.0 million gain from the sale of marketable securities and a $5.0 million gain recorded on foreign exchange. This was offset by the $3.5 million increase in the provision for post closure reclamation liabilities at the Wharf Mine and a $1.4 million non-cash increase in the provision for the decline in value of marketable securities.

The decision to increase the provision for post closure liabilities at the Wharf Mine, was made to assure investors that potential future liabilities were fully accounted for and adequate funds reserved to meet the Company’s responsibilities. Previous calculations of post closure costs for the Wharf Mine were made assuming a higher production rate, and lower costs than we now believe to be the case, which has necessitated an increase in the future provisions for these costs. Management believes it is important to provide clarity and certainty to investors concerning the business of the corporation and its future. In making this move Goldcorp feels it is adopting a leadership role within the mining industry, and one that is important in an era where investors require, and deserve, integrity and simplicity.

During the quarter, Goldcorp’s total gold production was 162,982 ounces at a cash cost of $86 per ounce sold compared with 134,907 ounces at a cash cost of $97 per ounce sold in the third quarter, 2001. The Red Lake Mine produced 140,158 ounces at a cash cost of $63 per ounce sold, compared with 111,252 ounces at a cash cost of $65 per ounce sold in the third quarter, 2001. Third quarter 2002 production at the Red Lake Mine resulted from the processing of 60,140 tons (at an average rate of 654 tons per day) with an average grade of 2.37 ounces of gold per ton (opt) (81.3 grams per tonne (gpt)) and a recovery rate of 90.7%. The increased production

Goldcorp Inc. — 2002 Third Quarter Results   Page 4

for the quarter relative to the same period 2001 was due to a higher grade (2.37 opt compared with 1.99 opt), increased recovery (90.7% compared with 87.5%), and the contribution of 8,732 ounces of gold produced from concentrate processed at Barrick Gold Corp.’s Goldstrike facility in Nevada.

The Wharf Mine produced 22,824 ounces of gold during the quarter at a cash cost of $227 per ounce sold, compared with 23,655 ounces at a cash cost of $228 per ounce in the third quarter of 2001. The reclamation of the Golden Reward Mine is over 50% complete, progressing well and remains on schedule and on budget.

The performance of Saskatchewan Minerals during the quarter was comparable to the same period in 2001, with revenue of $2.3 million and operating profit of $0.5 million and cash flow of $0.6 million.

Nine Months Ended September 30, 2002

Earnings were $46.4 million, or $0.27 per share, during the first nine months of 2002, compared to earnings of $40.6 million, or $0.25 per share, for the same period in 2001. Cash flow from operations for the first nine months, 2002 was $74.3 million, or $0.42 per share, compared with $72.9 million, or $0.44 per share, for the same period in 2001. Had all the gold bullion which was produced, but not sold, during the first nine months of 2002, been sold, earnings would have increased to $0.29 per share, and cash flow would have increased to $0.50 per share.

Gold production for the first nine months of 2002 was 457,690 ounces at a cash cost of $89 per ounce sold, compared with 468,952 ounces at a cash cost of $86 per ounce in the first nine months of 2001. The Red Lake Mine produced 395,532 ounces of gold at a cash cost of $63 per ounce during the first nine months of 2002 compared with 389,691 ounces at a cash cost of $59 per ounce during the same period of 2001. The Wharf Mine produced 62,158 ounces of gold at a cash cost of $248 per ounce to the end of September 2002 compared with 79,261 ounces of gold at a cash cost of $210 per ounce during the first nine months of 2001.

DIVIDEND INCREASED 20%!

During the third quarter 2002 (September 4th, 2002) Goldcorp announced an increase in the total annual dividend payments by 20% from $0.10 to $0.12 per share. The Company intends to make this payment through equal quarterly installments of $0.03 per share. For 2002, two quarterly dividend payments of $0.025 per share were made prior to the dividend increase announcement. The third quarterly payment totaled $0.03 per share and was made on September 23, 2002. The final 2002 quarterly payments will be $0.03 per share for a total 2002 dividend payment of $0.11 per share. The total annual dividend payment is scheduled to reach $0.12 per share in 2003.

Goldcorp believes that making these dividend payments is an important way to return value to shareholders on an ongoing basis. The Company hopes to increase the total amount of this dividend payment as the gold price rises.

RED LAKE MINE EXPLORATION SUCCESS
High Grade Zone Richer, Wider and Deeper
10.80 opt (370.3 gpt) over 70 ft (21.34 m)!

We are currently conducting the largest exploration program ever undertaken at the Red Lake Mine with a 2002 budget of $12 million. We are exploring four key target areas in the mine: 1) Deep extensions of our High Grade Zone (HGZ); 2) Deep extensions of sulphide mineralization; 3) Potential repetitions of Red Lake style mineralization to the east in the Far East Zone; and 4) Possible high grade mineralization in the Western Complex Area.

During the quarter (September 6th, 2002) we released particularly encouraging exploration results which continued to confirm the validity of our exploration model which is based on observations that the high grade mineralization at both the Red Lake Mine itself and the adjacent Campbell Mine is controlled by distinct linear structures. More than 75% of all the gold discovered at the Red Lake Mine occurs along, or adjacent to, such a structure. We believe more gold will be discovered along extensions of this known structure and along two additional parallel linear structures which are interpreted to exist to the east (in the Far East Zone) and to the west (in the Western Complex Area).

The most encouraging aspect of these latest exploration results was that the High Grade Zone (HGZ) appears to be widening at depth. The richest intersection encountered was 10.80 opt (370.3 gpt) over 70 feet (ft) (21.34 metres(m)) at a vertical depth of 6850 ft (2088 m), which is the deepest intersection yet obtained from the HGZ and one of the richest and widest. It was within a 338 ft (103 m) interval containing 10 zones of gold mineralization.

AWARDS RECOGNIZING ACHIEVEMENTS
Board Selected as One of the Best
Chairman Named Entrepreneur of the Year.
Saskatchewan Minerals Awarded Excellent Rating in S. C. Johnson Audit

During the quarter, the Company was pleased to announce that its Board of Directors was ranked as the 16th Best Board in Canada in Canadian Business Magazine’s “second annual survey of The Best and Worst Boards in Canada” (August 19, 2002 edition).

On September 26, 2002, Goldcorp’s Chairman and CEO, Robert (Rob) McEwen was selected as the winner of Ernst and Young’s 2002 Ontario Entrepreneur of the Year Award in the Energy Category. The Company was pleased to see Rob receive this award as it recognized the ambition, dedication and innovation which he has focused towards turning the Red Lake Mine into the richest gold mine in the world and towards his goal of making Goldcorp “The Ultimate Gold Company". In accepting this award Rob acknowledged that it reflected the hard work and dedication of all Goldcorp’s employees in working towards these same goals.

One of Saskatchewan Minerals’ major customers – S. C. Johnson and Son Ltd. – conducts annual audits of its suppliers to assess the quality of operating and environmental practices. We are particularly pleased to announce that as a result of the most recent of these audits, Saskatchewan Minerals was awarded an excellent rating, representing a level of operating performance achieved by a select group of suppliers to S. C. Johnson.

INTERIM MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
FOR THE NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2002

This interim Management and Discussion Analysis (“MD&A”) updates the annual 2001 MD&A in terms of any significant changes in Goldcorp’s business and analyses the results of operations for the three months ended September 30, 2002 and the nine months ended September 30, 2002.

All amounts are in US dollars, except where otherwise indicated. Goldcorp completed a two-for-one stock split in May 2002 and the per share results from prior reporting periods have been restated to make comparisons to current period results more meaningful.

Earnings and Cash Flow (on a post stock-split basis)

Earnings for the third quarter of 2002 were $16.3 million, or $0.09 per share, compared with $10.6 million, or $0.06 per share, for the third quarter of 2001. The increase in earnings was driven predominantly by the excellent operating performance of the Red Lake Mine, improved gold prices and higher other income.

Revenues for the third quarter of 2002 of $49.6 million grew by $15.0 million (an increase of 43%) from last year due to a higher volume of ounces sold and a 15% improvement in the realized price per ounce of gold.

Non-operational gains contributed $7.7 million to other income during the third quarter of 2002, compared with $1.3 million for the corresponding period last year. The increase is largely related to foreign exchange gains on currency and profit on the sale of marketable securities.

Goldcorp’s earnings for the nine months ended September 30, 2002, in accordance with Canadian Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP), were $46.4 million, or $0.27 per share. This compares with earnings of $40.6 million, or $0.25 per share, for the corresponding period last year.

Operating cash flow for the third quarter 2002 was $32.9 million, or $0.18 per share, compared with $17.9 million, or $0.11 per share, for the third quarter of 2001. The improvement was driven by higher operating earnings, in particular the operating earnings of the Red Lake Mine.

Operating cash flow for the nine months ended September 30, 2002 was $74.3 million, or $0.42 per share. This compares with cash flow of $72.9 million, or $0.44 per share, for the corresponding period last year.

Cash Resources

Cash and short-term investments increased from $218.3 million at June 30, 2002, to $235.5 million at September 30, 2002.

Goldcorp believes that gold is money. The market for gold is liquid with an established international price. Gold bullion is readily convertible to cash. The market value (pre-tax) of Goldcorp’s gold bullion holdings, based on the London PM Fix as at September 30, 2002, stood at $57.9 million at the end of the third quarter of 2002, an increase of $12.2 million from June 30, 2002.

Gold Bullion

Goldcorp purchased 19,990 ounces of gold bullion on the open market during the third quarter of 2002. The average price of the purchased gold bullion was $306.25 per ounce, for a total purchase cost of $6.1 million. This brings the market value of the total amount of gold bullion purchased to date (100,160 ounces) to $32.4 million, based on the London PM Fix on the last business day in September 2002 of $323.70 per ounce. The average cost of the gold bullion purchased to-date is $319.73.

Gold bullion is traded on the open market at an established price. Unrealized gains or losses arising from fluctuations in the price of purchased gold bullion are accounted for on a mark-to-market basis, irrespective of whether or not the gold bullion has actually been sold.

During the third quarter of 2002, the Company continued with its strategy of increasing its gold bullion holdings by withholding some of its production from sale. The Company increased its holdings of gold bullion from production for the three months ended September 30, 2002, by 15,326 ounces (from 63,425 ounces as at June 30, 2002, to 78,751 ounces as at September 30, 2002). The market value of this gold bullion was $25.5 million, based on the London PM Fix on the last business day in September 2002 of $323.70. The cost of the gold bullion produced, but not yet sold, as at September 30, 2002, was $9.0 million.

The Company recognizes revenue under Canadian GAAP. Revenue from gold bullion production is recognized when title passes to the purchaser and as a result revenue is recorded when the gold is sold, not when it is produced.

The Company however believes that its performance should also be assessed with gold bullion valued at its net realizable value and the impact on earnings and cash flow calculated as if the bullion was sold. This approach more accurately reflects the results of our production activities and eliminates income fluctuations caused by changes in inventory levels. The Company refers to these measures as “bullion adjusted earnings” and “bullion adjusted cash flow” respectively.

Bullion adjusted earnings and bullion adjusted cash flow are not measures of performance under Canadian or US GAAP. They should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for GAAP earnings or operating cash flow. These measures do not have standardized meaning nor are they necessarily comparable with other companies.

For the third quarter of 2002, had we sold all the bullion that was produced during the quarter and after accounting for taxes payable, our reported earnings per share would have increased from $0.09 per share to $0.10 per share, while operating cash flow per share would have increased from $0.18 per share, to $0.21 per share.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2002, had we sold all the bullion that was produced for the first nine months of the year, our reported earnings per share would have increased from $0.27 per share, to $0.29 per share, while operating cash flow per share would have increased from $0.42 per share to, $0.50 per share.

Had all of the 78,751 ounces of gold bullion produced, but not yet sold, been sold during the third quarter of 2002 at the London PM Fix of $323.70, earnings per share would have increased by $0.05 per share, while cash flow per share would have increased by $0.14 per share.

Gold bullion purchases on the open market and gold bullion production are delivered to the Bank of Nova Scotia’s vaults in both Toronto and New York.

Cash costs of for the third quarter of 2002 of $63 per ounce was $2 lower than for the corresponding period last year. Red Lake delivered excellent production results for the third quarter of 2002 of 140,158 ounces, exceeding expectations and targets. The third quarter production for 2002 was equivalent to 126% of the production for the corresponding period last year. Production for the third quarter of 2002 was ahead of plan by 15,588 ounces.

Gold bullion production for the nine months ended September 30, 2002 of 395,532 ounces was equivalent to 101% of the production for the corresponding period last year. Production for the nine months ended September 30, 2002 was ahead of plan by 39,183 ounces.

Gold bullion production for the third quarter of 2002 of 140,158 ounces resulted from the processing of 60,140 tons at an average grade of 2.37 ounces per ton (opt), or 81.3 grams per tonne (gpt), with a recovery rate of 90.7 %.

Gold bullion production for the nine months ended September 30, 2002 of 395,532 ounces resulted from the processing of 181,127 tons at an average grade of 2.29 opt, or 78.5 gpt, with a recovery rate of 90.8 %.

Annual forecast production had been set at 475,000 ounces, or approximately 5% below 2001 production levels, so as to facilitate development work in support of exploration efforts in the mine. However, given the performance for the first nine months of the year, the annual production is currently projected at 525,000 ounces at cash cost of $65 per ounce.

Production of 22,824 ounces of gold for the third quarter of 2002 is equivalent to 96% of the production for the corresponding period last year. Gold bullion production for the nine months ended September 30, 2002, was 62,158 ounces, which is equivalent to 78% of the production for the corresponding period last year.

Total operating cost for the third quarter of 2002 of $288 per ounce was $52 higher than the corresponding period last year. Non-cash cost for the third quarter ended September 30, 2002 was $61 per ounce, compared with $8 per ounce for the corresponding period last year. The increase in non-cash costs is related to pre-stripping required to access the ore in the mine’s remaining pit. The costs relating to pre-stripping are capitalized and then amortized over the mine’s remaining ounces. Total operating cost for the nine months ended September 30, 2002, of $290 per ounce was $72 higher than the corresponding period last year.

The non-cash cost is forecast at $45 for the year. Cash cost for the year is projected at $250 per ounce and total cost per ounce is expected to be $295 per ounce. Production is forecast at 85,000 ounces.

Reclamation on the Golden Reward Mine commenced during 2002. The budget for the entire reclamation project has been set at $6.4 million, with $4.4 million being budgeted for 2002. Total reclamation expenditures of $3.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2002, compares with the budget for the nine months ended September 30, 2002, of $3.8 million.

The Company’s mining and exploration activities are subject to various governmental laws and regulations relating to the protection of the environment. These environmental regulations are continually changing and generally becoming more restrictive. Based on ongoing interaction with federal and state regulators and the community, the Company has decided to set up an additional liability of $3.5 million. This relates to additional costs of monitoring site and water quality for an extended period of time following the cessation of mining and the subsequent mine reclamation (post-closure costs). The Company will be setting aside, in cash, an equal amount in a segregated account to fund the expected liability.

Revenue and operating profit improved over the corresponding periods last year, due to higher sales volumes and pricing levels.


Expenses

Depreciation, depletion and reclamation expenses incurred for the third quarter ended September 30, 2002 were $8.6 million, compared with $3.6 million for the corresponding period last year. The increase is related to the amortization at the Wharf Mine of capitalized prestripping required to access the ore in the mine’s remaining pit, along with a one-time $3.5 million charge for post-closure costs (see Wharf operational summary).

Total exploration and reserve development expenditures (both expensed and capitalized) were $4.3 million for the third quarter of 2002, compared with $5.6 million for the corresponding period last year. For the nine months ended September 30, 2002, expenditures were $11.1 million, compared with $9.8 million for the corresponding period last year. Of the total exploration expenditures, 19% was expensed during the third quarter and 18% was expensed for the nine months ended September 30, 2002.

Other income

Interest and other income earned during both the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2002 was higher than the corresponding periods last year, due to interest earned on larger average cash balances, in particular arising from the proceeds of the recent financing.

The Company recorded a gain on foreign currency for the third quarter of 2002 of $5.0 million compared with $1.3 million for the corresponding period last year. The gain during the third quarter of 2002 is due to the appreciation of the U.S. Dollar in relation to the Canadian Dollar during the quarter and the resultant gain from the sale of U.S. denominated cash and short-term investments. This essentially reversed the translation losses recorded during the second quarter of 2002.

The third quarter saw increased activity in the levels of purchase and sale of marketable securities. The Company realized gains on its portfolio of marketable securities for the third quarter of 2002 of $2.0 million, for a year-to-date total of $7.4 million. The Company crystallized gains on long held investments and reduced its position in non-performing securities. During the third quarter of 2002 the Company took a strategic position in a company identified as a potential acquisition target. Upon further analysis, this holding was sold.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The third quarter of 2002 was characterized by strong cash flow from operations and increased trading activity in marketable securities. Net cash provided by operating activities was $32.9 million compared with $17.9 million for the corresponding period last year.

Goldcorp’s treasury is very strong. At the end of September 30, 2002, cash and short-term investments were $235.5 million, an increase of $157.4 million from December 31, 2001. The increase is mainly due to the equity financing completed at the end of April 2002, which added net proceeds of $137.7 million and increased cash flow from operations.

The market value of Goldcorp’s gold bullion holdings, based on the London PM Fix on September 30, 2002 was $25.5 million for gold bullion holdings from production and $32.4 million gold bullion purchased, for an overall market value of $57.9 million.

Goldcorp remains debt free and its gold production and reserves are totally unhedged. Goldcorp has no significant off balance sheet liabilities. Goldcorp operations participate in defined contribution pension plans. Contributions to defined contribution plans are based on specified percentages of salaries. Goldcorp has no associated unfunded pension liabilities.

Due to the Company’s continued strong financial position and performance, the quarterly dividend was increased by 20%. The third quarter dividend payment was $0.03 per share (previously $0.025 per share), bringing the total dividend payment for the three months ended September 30, 2002 to $5.5 million.

Outlook for 2002

With the excellent nine month production results from the Red Lake Mine, its gold production, originally budgeted at 475,000 ounces for the year, is now forecast at 525,000 ounces for the year at a cash cost of $65 per ounce. The total cost at the Red Lake Mine is forecast at less than $100 per ounce for the year.

Gold production from the Wharf Mine is expected to reach 85,000 ounces for the year, with cash cost of $250 per ounce. The total cost at the Wharf Mine is forecast at $295 per ounce for the year.

Consolidated earnings for the year is forecast at $0.34 per share and cash flow per share is forecast at $0.58 per share. The Company expects to continue its strategy of building its gold bullion holdings.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited)

(United States dollars, tabular amounts in thousands)

1.   General
 
    The unaudited interim period consolidated financial statements have been prepared by the Company in accordance with Canadian generally accepted accounting principles. The preparation of financial data is based on accounting policies and practices consistent with those used in the preparation of the audited annual consolidated financial statements. The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the notes to the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2001.
 
    These unaudited interim consolidated financial statements reflect all normal and recurring adjustments, which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of the respective interim periods presented.
 
2.   Changes in Accounting Policies – Stock-Based Compensation
 
    Effective January 1, 2002, the Company adopted the new recommendations of the Canadian Institute of Chartered Accountants in Handbook Section 3870, “Stock-based compensation and other stock-based payments”. Section 3870 is applied prospectively to all stock-based payments to non-employees granted on or after January 1, 2002.
 
    The Company accounts for all stock-based payments to non-employees granted on or after January 1, 2002, using the fair value based method. Stock options granted to employees are accounted for as a capital transaction. The Company is also required to disclose the pro forma effect of accounting for stock option awards granted to employees subsequent to January 1, 2002, under the fair value based method. Accordingly, the fair value of the 3,687,000 options granted subsequent to January 1, 2002 has been estimated at the date of grant using a Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following assumptions: risk-free interest rate of 4%; dividend yield of 1%; volatility factor of the expected market price of the Company’s common stock of 37%; and a weighted average expected life of the options of 3 years. For purposes of pro forma disclosure, the estimated fair value of the options is expensed over the options’ vesting period, which is 3 years.

3.   Gold Bullion
 
    Gold bullion inventory produced by Goldcorp’s operations has been accounted for differently than gold bullion purchased. Gold bullion produced is carried at the lower of average cost or net realizable value, whereas purchased gold bullion is carried at net realizable value and the unrealized gains and losses are charged to earnings during the current period.
 
    During the nine months ended September 30, 2002, the Company purchased 100,160 ounces of gold bullion for a total cost of $32,024,000. At September 30, 2002, the market value of the purchased gold bullion was $32,422,000, an increase of $398,000, which the Company has recorded as an unrealized gain on gold bullion investment.
 
    At September 30, 2002, the Company had 78,751 ounces of produced gold bullion, which is carried on the balance sheet at a production cost of $8,985,000. Based on a gold price of $323.70 per ounce on September 30, 2002, the Company’s purchased gold bullion had a market value of $25,492,000.

5.   Capital Stock
 
    On March 21, 2002, the Company’s shareholders approved a two-for-one split of the Company’s common shares. The record date for the split was May 22, 2002. Previously reported earnings per share information has been adjusted to reflect this split.
 
    On April 30, 2002, the Company issued 8,000,000 Units (on a pre-split basis) at a price of US$18.00 per Unit, for net proceeds of $137,740,000. Each Unit consisted of one common share and one-half of one share purchase warrant. One full share purchase warrant, subsequent to the two-for-one share split, entitles the holder to purchase two common shares at a price of US$25.00 for a period of up to five years from the closing date of April 30, 2002.
 
    At September 30, 2002, the Company had 182,240,392 common shares outstanding. If all outstanding options and warrants had been exercised a total of 207,302,506 common shares would have been outstanding.

6.   Amalgamation with CSA Management Inc.
 
    During 2000, Goldcorp amalgamated with CSA Management Inc. (CSA), a major shareholder of Goldcorp with a 17% equity interest and a 44% voting interest. The Goldcorp common shares held by CSA were cancelled on amalgamation. For accounting purposes, the cancellation was treated as Goldcorp redeeming its common shares with common share capital, contributed surplus and retained earnings reduced as follows:

         
Share capital
  $ 36,553  
Contributed surplus
    5,569  
Retained earnings
    56,276  
 
   
 
Total
  $ 98,398  
 
   
 

  The accounting treatment had the effect of reducing Goldcorp’s share capital, eliminating existing contributed surplus and moving the Company’s retained earnings, at the date of the transaction, into a deficit position. At September 30, 2002, the Company had retained earnings of $1,925,000.
