$AMRS Amyris "Amyris delivers high-performance renewable products across a wide range of consumer and industry segments. Our products offer customers a way to reduce environmental impact with No Compromise® in performance or availability.

We developed innovative microbial engineering and screening technologies that modify the way microorganisms process sugars. With our innovative bioscience technology and established fermentation processes, we convert plant-sourced sugars into renewable molecules for multiple applications.

Our story began over a decade ago, when Amyris was founded with a vision of making a positive impact on the world through science. We first used our proprietary process to convert plant-sugars into an alternative, lower cost, stable supply of artemisinin, an effective anti-malarial. Thanks to our breakthrough technology, these life saving drugs are more readily accessible.

Our initial business strategy was focused on the production of Biofene®, Amyris’s brand of renewable farnesene, a long-chain branched hydrocarbon molecule, manufactured using Amyris-engineered microbes in fermentation of plant sugar feedstock.

Building on the expertise from farnesene production, Amyris is developing, and in some cases producing, a range of other molecules. From these renewable molecules, we are developing a wide range of renewable specialty chemicals and fuels products, ranging from cosmetic emollients and fragrances to fuels and lubricants and even biopharmaceuticals, through our µPharm drug discovery platform."

$AMRS Gingko. Entered into an Initial Strategic Partnership Agreement with Ginkgo Bioworks to accelerate commercialization of bio-based ingredients and establish clear leadership in industrial biotechnology with a combined offering that we consider unparalleled. In connection with the agreement, a license fee of $15 million was paid on July 25, 2016, to Amyris in exchange for use of certain Amyris technology and the parties agreed to pursue the negotiation and execution of a definitive partnership agreement that includes significant value sharing. The partnership is expected to deliver more new ingredients into the global market over the next three years than the entire industry has achieved in the last 10 years.
