Amyris, Inc. (Nasdaq: AMRS) is a pioneering synthetic biotechnology company that leverages its Lab-to-Market™ technology platform to facilitate the world's shift towards sustainable consumption. Founded with the vision of transforming the Clean Health & Beauty and Flavors & Fragrances markets, Amyris specializes in converting plant sugars into essential hydrocarbon molecules, specialty ingredients, and consumer products using innovative bioscience solutions. The company's proprietary technology platform utilizes advanced machine learning, robotics, and artificial intelligence to bring new innovations to market at commercial scale, resulting in products incorporated into over 20,000 items from leading global brands, impacting more than 300 million consumers.
Recently, Amyris has undergone significant changes to optimize its operations and financial health. In June 2023, the company announced the resignation of its President & CEO, John Melo, with Han Kieftenbeld stepping in as Interim CEO while continuing his role as CFO. This leadership change aligns with Amyris' broader strategy to streamline its business and achieve cost reduction targets, including a global reduction in force and collaboration with PricewaterhouseCoopers (PwC) to implement 'Fit-to-Win' cost actions estimated at $250 million.
Further advancing its strategic transformation, Amyris commenced voluntary Chapter 11 proceedings in August 2023 to restructure its operations and financial framework. This restructuring aims to enhance the company's cost structure, capital position, and liquidity, allowing it to refocus on its core competencies in research and development, commercialization, and the application of sustainable ingredients through biofermentation. As part of this effort, Amyris plans to exit from its consumer brands, marketing them for sale while continuing to operate them through retail and e-commerce platforms during the transition.
Amyris has secured $190 million in debtor-in-possession financing from Foris Ventures to support its daily operations and meet its commitments to employees, customers, and partners throughout the restructuring process. The company is committed to maintaining its innovative edge and remains dedicated to introducing sustainable, effective, and accessible products to market, ensuring a path toward profitable growth and sustained cash generation.
