Current report

The Company held its 2025 Annual Meeting of Stockholders on July 28, 2025, where stockholders were asked to vote on proposals to provide the Requisite Stockholder Approvals.

Current report

In addition to the measures presented in our consolidated financial statements, we review the following key business metrics to measure our performance, identify trends affecting our business, formulate business plans, and make strategic decisions that will impact the future operational results of LanzaTech. Increases or decreases in our key business metrics may not correspond with increases or decreases in our revenue.

Current report

Total revenue decreased $8.3 million, or 48%, in the three months ended June 30, 2025, compared to the same period in 2024. The decline was primarily driven by $7.5 million in licensing revenue received in the prior period related to LanzaJet sublicensing our technology. Engineering and other services revenue also declined by $3.2 million and other contract research declined by $0.5 million, mainly due to the completion of projects with existing customers and government entities whose projects reached completion of their current development phase. These decreases were partially offset by an increase of $2.9 million in CarbonSmart sales.

Current report

Cost of revenue increased $0.7 million, or 13%, in the three months ended June 30, 2025, compared to the same period in 2024. This increase was primarily driven by the cost of revenue for CarbonSmart products of $3.1 million partially offset by a decrease in engineering and other services of $1.5 million for contracts with existing customers and government entities. Cost of revenue also decreased $0.5 million for joint development arrangements and $0.4 million for other contract research.

Current report

SG&A expense increased $7.4 million, or 63%, in the three months ended June 30, 2025, compared to the same period in 2024. This was primarily due to a $9.5 million increase in professional services fees associated with the Company’s focus on streamlining its business priorities and a $1.0 million increase in facilities and consumable expenses, partially offset by a $3.1 million decrease in personnel and contractor expenses.

Current report

Interest income, net decreased $0.3 million in the three months ended June 30, 2025, compared to the same period in 2024. The decrease was primarily attributable to lower interest earned on smaller cash balances held in savings, money market, and investment accounts.

Current report

Other income, net increased $6.7 million in the three months ended June 30, 2025, compared to the same period in 2024. This was due to the overall net loss on changes in the fair value of our financial instruments, specifically, the increase in fair value of the Convertible Note of $9.4 million caused by the decrease in the assumed conversion price during the three months ended June 30, 2025 .

Current report

Results of Operations — Six Months Ended June 30, 2025 Compared to Six Months Ended June 30, 2024

Current report

Cost of revenues increased $1.5 million, or 12.1%, in the six months ended June 30, 2025, compared to the same period in the prior year, primarily driven by an increase of $6.3 million in cost of revenue related to CarbonSmart product sales due to higher activity in the first half of the year. The increase was offset by a $3.5 million decrease in cost of revenue for engineering and other services, a $1.0 million decrease in cost of revenue in Joint Development Agreements, and a $0.5 million decrease in other contract research.

Current report

R&D expense decreased $7.1 million, or 18.5%, in the six months ended June 30, 2025, compared to the same period in the prior year, primarily due to a decrease of $3.9 million was related to consumables and facilities expense, a decrease of $2.9 million in external R&D services related to project development costs that are not currently eligible for capitalization, and a decrease of $0.3 million in personnel and contractor expenses related to R&D projects.

Current report

On July 10, 2025, LanzaTech and Brookfield entered into Amendment No. 1 to the Brookfield Loan (the “Amended Brookfield Loan Agreement). Under the Amended Brookfield Loan Agreement, (i) the maturity date of the loan has been extended from October 3, 2027 to December 3, 2029 (the period from October 4, 2027 to December 3, 2029, the “extension period”), (ii) interest will accrue on a daily basis on the unpaid principal balance of the loan at (a) 8% per annum, payable quarterly in cash, from October 4, 2027 through and including December 3, 2028 and (b) 12% per annum, payable quarterly in cash, from December 4, 2028 through and including December 3, 2029 and (iii) during the extension period, the deemed repayment provisions set forth in the Loan Agreement associated with equity funding required for qualifying projects will not apply to eligible projects under the Amended Brookfield Framework Agreement with respect to which Brookfield has (or is deemed to have) delivered a rejection notice.

Current report

On the PIPE Closing Date, the Company and the PIPE Purchaser, entered into the PIPE Purchase Agreement pursuant to which the Company agreed to issue and sell 20,000,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock, to the PIPE Purchaser for an aggregate purchase price of $40.0 million (the “Series A Preferred Stock Issuance”), subject to certain closing conditions described therein. The Series A Preferred Stock Issuance was consummated on the PIPE Closing Date. The Company classifies the Series A Preferred Stock as mezzanine equity (temporary equity) outside of permanent equity on the consolidated balance sheets. This classification reflects provisions in the Series A Preferred Stock Agreement that could require redemption of the shares upon the occurrence of a deemed liquidation event, such as a change of control, which is not solely within the Company’s control. Pursuant to the PIPE Purchase Agreement, the Company also agreed to provide the PIPE Purchaser the contingent opportunity to participate in the potential future equity appreciation of the Company in the form of the PIPE Warrant that, similar to a structuring fee, would be issued if and only if certain conditions were satisfied prior to May 7, 2026, including obtaining a required stockholder vote and additional Financing meeting specified criteria. If issued, the PIPE Warrant would provide for the issuance of an aggregate of 780,000,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price equal to $0.0000001 per share (subject to adjustments in certain events, including the Reverse Stock Split, and to be no less than par value of the Company’s common stock) and the other terms to be set forth in the PIPE Warrant. Pursuant to the PIPE Purchase Agreement, the parties agreed that the PIPE Warrant would only be exercised upon consummation of a Subsequent Financing or, with the PIPE Purchaser’s consent, an Other Financing. If the Conditions to Exercise are satisfied, the PIPE Warrant will be deemed automatically exercised on a cashless, net-exercise basis at such time (the time immediately following such automatic exercise, the “Expiration Time”). The PIPE Warrant will terminate at the earlier of (i) the Expiration Time and (ii) May 7, 2026. As of June 30, 2025, the PIPE Warrant is classified as a current liability and is subject to remeasurement at fair value at each balance sheet date. The fair value of the PIPE Warrant was $28.4 million at June 30, 2025. Changes in fair value of the PIPE Warrant were recognized in other income, net within the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.

Current report

780,000,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price equal to $0.0000001 per PIPE Warrant Share (subject to adjustments in certain events, including the Reverse Stock Split and to be no less than par value of the common stock) and the other terms to be set forth in the PIPE Warrant. Pursuant to the PIPE Purchase Agreement, the parties agreed that the PIPE Warrant would only be exercised upon consummation of a Subsequent Financing or, with the PIPE Purchaser’s consent, an Other Financing. If the Conditions to Exercise are satisfied, the PIPE Warrant will be deemed automatically exercised, concurrently with the consummation of such Financing, on a cashless, net-exercise basis (the time immediately following such automatic exercise, the “Expiration Time”). The Warrant will terminate at the earlier of (i) the Expiration Time and (ii) May 7, 2026.

Current report

Series A Convertible Senior Preferred Stock – Mezzanine Equity

Current report

On May 7, 2025, the Company issued Series A Convertible Senior Preferred Stock pursuant to the PIPE Purchase Agreement. Due to contractual provisions that could require redemption upon the occurrence of certain events—such as a deemed liquidation event (e.g., change of control)—that are not solely within the Company’s control, management determined that classification as mezzanine equity (temporary equity) outside of permanent equity was appropriate. This classification is in accordance with applicable SEC guidance and ASC 480.

Current report

The determination of classification requires significant judgment in evaluating the contractual terms of the instrument, including the likelihood and timing of potential redemption events. Management’s assessment involves consideration of all relevant facts and circumstances at issuance and on an ongoing basis. These judgments directly affect the Company’s presentation of equity and liquidity metrics and could materially impact future results if redemption becomes probable or if the instrument is subsequently reclassified.

Current report

The PIPE Warrant is classified as a current liability and is subject to remeasurement at fair value at each reporting period, with changes in fair value recognized in other income (expense), net in the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.

Current report

The valuation of the PIPE Warrant involves the use of significant unobservable inputs and management judgment. As of June 30, 2025, the fair value was determined based on the Company’s common stock price, adjusted for the probability of warrant issuance and exercisability, as well as applicable discounts reflecting liquidity, dilution, and other financing-related risks. Because these assumptions are highly sensitive to changes in market conditions, the fair value of the PIPE Warrant may fluctuate materially from period to period.
Removed paragraphs (4)

Previous report

Cost of revenues increased $0.7 million, or 11.0%, in the three months ended March 31, 2025, compared to the prior year period, primarily driven by the increase in sales for CarbonSmart products with a corresponding increase in cost of revenues of $3.2 million. The increase was offset by a decline in sales for engineering and other services which decreased the corresponding cost of revenues by $2.0 million. Similarly, the decrease in sales of JDA and other contract research drove a total decrease in cost of revenues of $0.5 million.

Previous report

The Convertible Note bore interest at a fixed rate of 8.00% per annum and would mature on August 6, 2029 (the “Convertible Note Maturity Date”), unless earlier redeemed or converted in accordance with its terms. The Convertible Note was subject to mandatory conversion for shares of the Company’s common stock upon the completion by the Company of an equity financing prior to the Convertible Note Maturity Date that resulted in the Company receiving minimum gross proceeds in an amount that was equal to the greater of (i)$40 million and (ii) 50% of the total principal amount under the outstanding Convertible Note immediately following the final closing under the Convertible Note Purchase Agreement (a “Qualified Equity Financing”) at a conversion price equal to the lower of (i) the lowest per-share selling price per share in the Qualified Equity Financing, less a 10% discount and (ii) the Valuation Cap (as defined below). The Convertible Note was also convertible at the option of the holder upon the completion by the Company of an equity financing prior to the Convertible Note Maturity Date that did not meet the definition of a Qualified Equity Financing (a “Non-Qualified Equity Financing”) at a conversion price equal to the lower of (i) the lowest per-share selling price in the Non-Qualified Equity Financing and (ii) the Valuation Cap. The Convertible Note was also convertible at the option of the holders any time prior to the Convertible Note Maturity Date at a conversion price equal to the Valuation Cap of$1.25 per share. The Valuation Cap was subject to adjustment based on the Company’s holdings in LanzaJet, and the conversion price in all cases was subject to adjustment for stock splits, reclassifications, redesignations, subdivisions, recapitalizations, and dividends. As of March 31, 2025, no Qualified Equity Financing nor Non-Qualifying Financing events had occurred.
