San Diego, CA -- (SBWIRE) -- 07/02/2013 -- A deadline is coming up on July 15, 2013 in the lawsuit filed for investors of Amyris Inc (NASDAQ:AMRS) over alleged securities laws violations by Amyris Inc in connection with certain allegedly false and misleading statements made between April 29, 2011 and February 8, 2012.

Investors with a substantial investment in Amyris Inc (NASDAQ:AMRS) shares between between April 29, 2011 and February 8, 2012, should get active before the Deadline that is coming up on July 15, 2013, and should contact the Shareholders Foundation at mail(at)shareholdersfoundation.com or call +1(858) 779 - 1554.

According to the complaint filed in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California the plaintiff alleges on behalf of purchasers of Amyris Inc (NASDAQ:AMRS) between April 29, 2011 and February 8, 2012 that Amyris Inc violated the Section 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.

More specifically, the plaintiff alleges that between April 29, 2011 and February 8, 2012 that Amyris’ priority was the commercialization and production of Biofene and its derivatives for sale in a range of specialty chemical applications.

On April 29, 2011, Amyris Inc (NASDAQ:AMRS) announced the completion of the first industrial-scale facility for the production of Biofene™, Amyris’s renewable farnesene. On August 15, 2011, Amyris Inc (NASDAQ:AMRS) announced the commissioning of its third industrial-scale facility for the production of Biofene. On November 1, 2011, Amyris reported its Third Quarter Financial Results.

Then on February 9, 2012, Amyris, Inc. conducted a webcast conference call to discuss updated guidance for 2012 and other related matters. During the conference call the Chief Executive Officer of Amyris Inc said that given the lower planned volume, Amyris is no longer adhering to its previously announced plan to produce 40-50 million liters of Biofene in 2012, and Amyris is no longer forecasting positive cash-flow from operations in 2012 and to cover this gap, Amyris is raising additional equity financing.

NASDAQ:AMRS shares fell from over $30 in early 2011 to as low as 1.59 per share in May 2012.

For 2012, Amyris Inc reported that its annual Total Revenue declined from $146.99 million in 2011 to $73.69 million in 2012 and its respective Net Loss grew from $178.87 million to $205.14 million.

On July 1, 2013, NASDAQ:ARMS shares closed at $2.91 per share.

Those who are current long term stockholders of shares of Amyris Inc (NASDAQ:AMRS) have certain options and should contact the Shareholders Foundation.
