Winthorpe III, if you really want to find the "profit share" numbers you can find them(look at the sec filings), they get 30% to 50% of partner profit margin.
To this date, they produce 3 molecules(end of this year should be at the very least 6):
-Farnesene, used for production of:
Lubricants
Squalane
Vitamin E
Liquid farnesene rubber(tyres)
Plasticizers(With Cray Valley/Total)
Fragrance
Market price range from 3$/kg as rubber to 24$/kg as squalane.
Can also be turned to biofuel but they do not sell fuels anymore
-Ambroxide, used for fragrance, market price is 665$/kg for amyris product and the synthetic synthesized molecule.
-Patchoulol,used for fragrance, market price is 50$/kg.
So if we look at the profit share they have:
-Lubricants - they get 33% of all the downstream sales via Novvi JV.
Squalane - they get 50% of all the downstream sales via Nikko JV.
Vitamin E - when the vitamin E is sold to the market, the profit is split 50%/50%.
Liquid farnesene rubber - when kuraray sells the farnesene to the for tyers, the part of the profit goes to amyris.
Plasticizer - when cray valley sells the farnesene part of the profit they get goes to amyris.
Fragrance - when Takasago sells farnesene based fragrance, amyris gets part of the profit.
For the two other fragrance molecules(Partner is Firmenich), amyris gets 30% of profit sales at first and when firmenich gets 15M$ more than amyris they start to split the profit 50%/50%.
All this profit share money is starting to get paid at 2017.
