Exhibit 99.1 FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE AMYRIS, INC. REPORTS FOURTH QUARTER AND FULL YEAR 2022 FINANCIAL RESULTS • Fourth quarter Consumer revenue of $52.8 million increased 64% over the prior year and was another record quarter.

Core revenue of $269.8 million grew 44% over prior year • Use of cash for operating and investing activities sequentially improved each quarter; Q4 2022 down $102 million versus Q1 2022 • Actions taken to simplify portfolio, streamline management structure and deliver efficiencies Emeryville, CA – March 15, 2023 – Amyris, Inc. (Nasdaq: AMRS), a leading synthetic biotechnology company accelerating the world’s transition to sustainable consumption through its Lab-to-MarketTM technology platform and clean beauty consumer brands, today announced financial results for the fourth quarter and full year ended December 31, 2022. Q4 2022 Core revenue of $75.8 million grew 17% versus the prior year quarter driven by record Consumer revenue of $52.8 million, a 64% year-over-year increase for the quarter and 92% for the full year 2022. Amyris’ consumer brands continued their robust growth trajectory, outperforming prestige beauty industry growth of 15% according to NPD Group. Their year-end report confirms that every category in prestige beauty posted double- digit gains in 2022, with skin care, hair care, and color cosmetics growing 12%, 22%, and 18%, respectively. Amyris’ brands delivered 44%, 744%, and 145% growth, respectively, in these categories. “We have focused our brand leadership teams and are making differentiated portfolio choices placing our investment on attractive beauty categories such as skin care, hair care, color cosmetics, baby care and healthy aging with our flagship brands Biossance, JVN, Rose Inc., Pipette, Stripes and MenoLabs,” commented John Melo, President and Chief Executive Officer. “We have grouped our other, more nascent, brands under one leader to achieve economies of scale. We also expanded our Technology Access partnerships by signing an agreement with Givaudan for beauty and personal care, similar to existing partnerships with DSM in flavor and fragrance and Ingredion in food and beverage. We are actively working on a partnership for human health.” “We continued to have access to the necessary capital to fund our operations,” added Melo. “We secured $150 million in funding in the fourth quarter and communicated yesterday that we secured an additional $50 million to bridge us to the $200 million upfront cash payment from our strategic transaction, which is expected to close in the next 30-45 days following HSR review.” During 2022, Amyris reduced its use of cash for operating and investing activities sequentially each quarter from ($200) million in Q1 to ($189) million in Q2 to ($164) million in Q3 to ($97) million in Q4. The company also reduced its inventory holdings in Q4 and continues to build on these initial cost and cash improvements. Although management was not fully satisfied with the progress toward reducing operating expense, the company did substantially reduce the costs involved with inbound air shipping from Q3 to Q4 by $9.2 million or 72% and delayered its leadership structure effecting a $1.2 million initial restructuring charge. “We have much more to do on our Fit-to-Win agenda and are committed to delivering quarter-by-quarter improvements in profitability and cash generation from operations. We continue to be well-positioned to execute our Lab-to-Market strategy. We own the underlying science, we are the long-term producer at scale, we partner with leaders in their respective end-markets and bring some of the best performing clean beauty, health and


 
wellness products to consumers with our family of leading prestige brands. To fully leverage our assets and drive enterprise value, we are focused on efficiency, lowering our cost and significantly simplifying our portfolio. We expect these actions to meet our objective of ending 2023 as a self-sufficient enterprise,” concluded Melo. Revenue 1 Core revenue comprises Consumer and Technology Access revenue. Technology Access includes ingredient product revenue, R&D collaboration, and technology licenses. Core revenue excludes strategic transactions and other. Totals may not foot due to rounding. 2 Strategic Transactions & Other includes $143.6 million Flavors & Fragrances transaction (Q1 2021); $0.2 million discontinued ingredients value share (Q1 2021); and $10.0 million RebM transaction (Q2 2021) Q4 2022 Financial Highlights • Core revenue of $75.8 million increased 17% compared to Q4 2021 Core revenue of $64.8 million.

Ingredients product revenue decreased 12% to $14.3 million, reflecting temporary supply and working capital constraints, resulting in significant unfulfilled orders, as the business transitioned from higher cost toll manufacturing to lower cost internal sourcing from the new fermentation plant in Brazil.
