Order Instituting Cease-and-Desist Proceedings Pursuant to Section 21C of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, Making Findings, and Imposing a Cease-and-Desist Order.
On October 15, 2021, the SEC instituted settled cease-and-desist proceedings against Amyris Inc. stating: "During the first two quarters of 2018, Amyris improperly recognized certain royalty revenues that rendered its financial statements materially inaccurate. These revenue recognition errors resulted from internal accounting control failures that led to important information not being communicated to the company’s internal accounting staff concerning certain significant royalty payments, which also resulted in Amyris’s failure to make and keep accurate books and records."
