New Risk • Aug 11
New minor risk - Market cap size The company's market capitalization is less than US$100m. Market cap: €22.2m (US$24.3m) This is considered a minor risk. Companies with a small market capitalization are most likely businesses that have not yet released a product to market or are simply a very small company without a wide reach. Either way, risk is elevated with these companies because there is a chance the product may not come to fruition or the company's addressable market or demand may not be as large as expected. In addition, if the company's size is the main factor, it is less likely to have many investors and analysts following it and scrutinizing its performance and outlook. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Major Risks Less than 1 year of cash runway based on free cash flow trend (-US$540m free cash flow). Share price has been highly volatile over the past 3 months (32% average weekly change). Negative equity (-US$648m). Minor Risks Currently unprofitable and not forecast to become profitable over next 2 years (US$159m net loss in 2 years). Shareholders have been diluted in the past year (15% increase in shares outstanding). Market cap is less than US$100m (€22.2m market cap, or US$24.3m). Annuncio • May 29

Amyris Achieves Promising In-Vivo Results For Intranasal Delivery Of RNA/NLC Vaccine Amyris, Inc. announced promising in-vivo results in a study of its licensed RNA vaccine through intranasal delivery, developed in collaboration with the Infectious Disease Research Institute (IDRI). Current mRNA vaccine technologies are providing limited immunity protection for the upper respiratory system. As a result, vaccinated people may experience viral replication and viral shedding regardless of variants. In-vivo results indicate that, when delivered to the mucosal membranes via intranasal administration, the Amyris/IDRI RNA vaccine generates antibodies and provides upper respiratory protection for SARS-CoV-2 (COVID-19), which Amyris believes has the potential to provide fuller protection against current variants of SARS-CoV-2. The Amyris/IDRI RNA technology may also support the potential for intranasal vaccine delivery that can protect against SARS-CoV-2 and other respiratory diseases, including the flu. If approved and commercialized, the Amyris/IDRI RNA vaccine is targeted to be more accessible to people in underserved countries. In addition, the intranasal vaccine may offer improved upper respiratory protection beyond currently approved vaccines. Amyris will provide a detailed update of the progress of its vaccine platform and a roadmap for scale up and delivery during one of its upcoming investor mini-series webinars.
