Achieved total revenue of $17.4 million for second-quarter 2024, exceeding expectations

Reaffirming full-year 2024 outlook, including total revenue of $90 million - $105 million

Announcing $40 million investment by Carbon Direct Capital, strengthening financial flexibility

CHICAGO, Aug. 08, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- LanzaTech Global, Inc. (NASDAQ: LNZA) (“LanzaTech” or the “Company”), the carbon recycling company transforming waste carbon into sustainable fuels, chemicals, and materials, today reported its financial and operating results for second-quarter 2024, reaffirmed its previously issued financial outlook for full-year 2024, and is announcing a $40 million investment by new investor Carbon Direct Capital.

Highlights:

  • Reported revenue of $17.4 million for second-quarter 2024 as compared to revenue of $12.9 million for second-quarter 2023; year-over-year increase of 35% driven primarily by the Biorefining business and within that, licensing revenue associated with technology licensed to LanzaJet, Inc. (“LanzaJet”) and engineering services revenue from multiple customers
  • Continued to execute on Biorefining business, including recording early-stage equipment and engineering revenue related to a new project with NTPC Limited (“NTPC”), India’s largest power generation utility company
  • Advanced Joint Development Agreement & Contract Research business, with several current engagements expected to progress into broader opportunities within the Biorefining and CarbonSmart™ businesses
  • Achieved CarbonSmart milestone with the Company’s first pure-play ethanol fuel sales following successful initiatives to establish the optimal licensing arrangements, partners, and supply chain infrastructure; these fuel sales build on LanzaTech’s existing CarbonSmart business of selling ethanol-based products that entail the further processing or purification of ethanol offtake before delivering it to textile, chemical, and plastics customers
  • Increased ownership stake in LanzaJet to approximately 37% from approximately 23% during second-quarter 2024 in further consideration for the license to the Alcohol-to-Jet (“ATJ”) technology exclusively licensed from LanzaTech, as LanzaJet continues to meet new milestones
  • Launched CirculAir™, a joint offering with LanzaJet to globally deploy an end-to-end technology solution for the production of sustainable aviation fuel (“SAF”) from waste feedstocks
  • Reaffirming full-year 2024 financial guidance ranges, including revenue of $90 million to $105 million, and adjusted EBITDA loss of $(65) million to $(55) million
  • Announcing the closing of a $40 million investment in the form of a convertible note by Carbon Direct Capital, a new investor who is a globally recognized investor in the carbon management ecosystem

“We made progress on a number of strategic fronts during the quarter, including growing revenue, increasing our stake in LanzaJet, launching CirculAir, commencing direct CarbonSmart ethanol fuel sales, and bringing Carbon Direct Capital onboard as an important new investor,” said Dr. Jennifer Holmgren, Board Chair and Chief Executive Officer of LanzaTech.

“As we continue to execute our vision of a circular carbon economy, our competitive advantage is increasingly clear, driven by the feedstock flexibility of our platform and the commercial-scale plants operating today. We are attracting large, high-quality customers worldwide that are interested in the waste-derived products and fuels that our platform produces at scale. That interest is driven in large part because we are successfully converting a wide-range of carbon-rich waste feedstocks such as municipal waste, agriculture and biomass waste, and industrial off-gases into valuable ethanol today.”

Holmgren concluded, “Looking forward, we expect our existing licensees’ operations to continue to ramp to full production capacity and we have a number of sizable customer projects that are expected to move through final investment decision and into construction by the end of 2024. Beyond 2024, our primary financial objective is to reach profitability expeditiously, by driving growth in revenue and gross profit, and the way we get there is by executing projects and deploying licenses while being diligent with cost management, and that’s exactly the type of progress we are delivering today.”

Second-Quarter 2024 Financial Results

The table below outlines key reported second-quarter 2024 results:

$ millions, unless noted 2Q24 2Q23 % Change
Revenue 17.4  12.9  35 %
Cost of revenue 5.5  10.8  (49)%
Gross Profit 11.9  2.1  469 %
Operating expenses 34.7  32.7  6 %
Net income (loss) (27.8) (26.8) (4)%
Adjusted EBITDA (loss) (17.8) (23.8) 25 %
          

Revenue

  • Second-quarter 2024 revenue was $17.4 million as compared to $12.9 million for second-quarter 2023, which represented an increase of 35% year-over-year, and exceeded the Company’s previously disclosed expectations of 20% to 40% growth as compared to $10.2 million reported for first-quarter 2024. The year-over-year and sequential quarterly growth in revenue was driven by approximately $7.9 million of biorefining licensing revenue associated with the license of our technology to LanzaJet and the sublicensing of this proprietary technology to Jet Zero Australia earlier this year, as well as an increase in engineering services revenue. Biorefining revenue for second-quarter 2024, excluding the $7.9 million related to the LanzaJet sublicense was $5.8 million.
  • Joint Development Agreement (“JDA”) & Contract Research revenue for second-quarter 2024 was $2.8 million as compared to $2.2 million for second-quarter 2023, representing an increase of 25% year-over-year which was primarily driven by the progression and expansion of projects with existing partners.
  • CarbonSmart revenue for second-quarter 2024 was $0.9 million as compared to $1.0 million for second-quarter 2023. Notably, CarbonSmart revenue for the first half of 2024 was $1.8 million as compared to $1.0 million for the first half of 2023, representing an increase of 79% year-over-year.

Cost of Revenue

  • Second-quarter 2024 cost of revenue was $5.5 million as compared to $10.8 million for second-quarter 2023, a 49% decline year-over-year. Cost of revenue for second-quarter 2024 was largely comprised of headcount allocations related to the delivery of our biorefining services and JDA work. As a result of the significant licensing component of our revenue in second-quarter 2024 and its associated low cost, gross margin was 68%. Excluding the uplift attributed to the LanzaJet sublicense transaction, gross margin was 42% for the quarter.

Operating Expenses

  • Second-quarter 2024 operating expenses were $34.7 million as compared to $32.7 million for second-quarter 2023. The increase of 6% year-over-year was driven primarily by project-related expenses that are expected to be recovered once the specific projects advance through the development phases, a portion of which are expected to be recovered in fourth-quarter 2024.

Net Loss

  • Second-quarter 2024 net loss was $(27.8) million as compared to second-quarter 2023 net loss of $(26.8) million. The year-over-year increase was primarily driven by a $5.8 million non-cash expense associated with the net change of financial instruments.

Adjusted EBITDA Loss

  • Second-quarter 2024 adjusted EBITDA loss was $(17.8) million as compared to second-quarter 2023 adjusted EBITDA loss of $(23.8) million. The decrease in the loss of 25% is mainly attributable to the same factors that drove the increase in gross profit.

Commercial & Operational Highlights

LanzaTech continues to execute on key aspects of its business model, with a number of notable commercial and operational achievements during second-quarter 2024:

  • Awarded a contract by engineering, procurement, and construction company Jakson Green to provide our technology platform to NTPC for the production of 4G ethanol. NTPC is planning to build a plant showcasing a commercial route to transforming carbon dioxide and hydrogen into valuable fuels, chemicals, and raw materials. The plant is expected to begin operations by mid-2026.
  • Increased ownership in LanzaJet to approximately 37% from approximately 23% as a result of share consideration received in return for enabling LanzaJet to further sublicense to Jet Zero Australia, the ATJ technology that LanzaTech exclusively licensed to LanzaJet. LanzaTech is entitled to receive two additional tranches of LanzaJet shares, as LanzaJet further sublicenses this technology, with the second tranche expected to be received within the next six months and the third and final tranche during 2025, based on the pace of current commercial activity.
  • Launched a joint offering with LanzaJet called CirculAir which provides an end-to-end commercial solution utilizing LanzaTech’s Gas Fermentation platform in conjunction with LanzaJet’s ATJ platform to produce SAF and renewable diesel from a wide range of waste feedstocks, including industrial off gases, carbon dioxide and hydrogen, as well as gasified solids, such as municipal solid waste and residues from agriculture and forestry.
  • Progressed Project SECURE by working collaboratively with the Department of Energy and Technip Energies on advancing the agreement for the project. LanzaTech anticipates the award contracting process will be completed in the coming months, with the goal of receiving initial award funds by the end of 2024.
  • Advanced three projects into the early-stage engineering phase of the Company’s project development pipeline. LanzaTech also added one net new qualified project opportunity into the first phase of development. LanzaTech continues to expect that several projects currently in advanced engineering will achieve Final Investment Decision (“FID”) and move into the construction phase in fourth-quarter 2024.
  • Continued to progress scale up at IndianOil Corporation’s facility in India and ArcelorMittal’s facility in Belgium. The current total installed nameplate production capacity across the Company’s licensee’s operating fleet of six commercial projects is approximately 300,000 tons of ethanol per year.
  • Managed costs across the organization, with cost savings associated with the previously disclosed reorganization and work reprioritization initiatives continuing to materialize. LanzaTech remains on track to deliver previously disclosed cost reductions.

Notable Financing Activity

On August 6, 2024, LanzaTech successfully closed a new $40 million investment by Carbon Direct Capital, a globally recognized investor focused on investing in carbon management companies. The additional capital will be used to fund growth and working capital, and was invested pursuant to a convertible note purchase agreement which contemplates one or more closings for up to $150 million of Convertible Notes. LanzaTech continues to seek additional financing under the Convertible Note Purchase Agreement from certain accredited investors with whom the Company has a preexisting substantive relationship.

Balance Sheet, Liquidity

As of June 30, 2024, LanzaTech had $75.8 million in total cash, restricted cash, and investments, compared to total cash of $92.3 million at the end of first-quarter 2024. As of August 7, 2024, post funding of the $40 million capital raise, LanzaTech has total cash in excess of $100 million.

Total cash burn in second-quarter 2024 was $16.5 million, which was down significantly as compared to $29.2 million for first-quarter 2024. The decrease in quarter-over-quarter was due to a number of large annual payments incurred in first-quarter 2024, including 2023 incentive compensation, the majority of 2024 insurance premiums, and others cash payments that are expensed throughout the year but funded in the first quarter.

Full-Year 2024 Financial and Operating Outlook

LanzaTech is reaffirming its previously issued financial and operating outlook for full-year 2024. The table below outlines full-year 2024 guidance metrics:

$ millions  2024
Revenue  $90 - $105
Adjusted EBITDA (loss)  $(65) - $(55)
    
  • Management expects total revenue of $90 million to $105 million for full-year 2024, which, at the midpoint, represents approximately 55% revenue growth over full-year 2023.

  • Revenue for the second half of 2024 is projected to be heavily weighted to the fourth quarter, with third-quarter revenue expected to be similar to second-quarter 2024.

  • Multiple projects are expected to progress to the FID stage of the development process during the second half of 2024, and are expected to begin generating equipment revenues, and in certain cases recover previously incurred costs, as these projects progress into construction. While not currently expected, should timing delays occur and advancement of these projects be delayed to 2025, the probability of achieving full-year 2024 guidance could be negatively impacted. LanzaTech expects that the quarterly impact of unanticipated project timing shifts will diminish over time as the Company scales recurring revenue.

  • Management expects adjusted EBITDA loss of $(65) million to $(55) million for full-year 2024, which, at the midpoint represents improvement of approximately 25% over the prior year.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

To supplement our financial statements presented in accordance with US GAAP and to provide investors with additional information regarding our financial results, we have presented adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP financial measure. Adjusted EBITDA is not based on any standardized methodology prescribed by US GAAP and is not necessarily comparable to similarly titled measures presented by other companies.

We define adjusted EBITDA as our net loss, excluding the impact of depreciation, interest income, net, stock-based compensation, change in fair value of warrant liabilities, change in fair value of SAFE liabilities, change in fair value of the FPA Put Option liability and Fixed Maturity Consideration, transaction costs on issuance of Forward Purchase Agreement, (loss) gain from equity method investees and other one-time costs related to the Business Combination and securities registration on Form S-4 and our registration statement on Form S-1. We monitor adjusted EBITDA because it is a key measure used by our management and the Board to understand and evaluate our operating performance, to establish budgets, and to develop operational goals for managing our business. We believe adjusted EBITDA helps identify underlying trends in our business that could otherwise be masked by the effect of certain expenses that we include in net loss. Accordingly, we believe adjusted EBITDA provides useful information to investors, analysts, and others in understanding and evaluating our operating results and enhancing the overall understanding of our past performance and future prospects.

Adjusted EBITDA is not prepared in accordance with US GAAP and should not be considered in isolation of, or as an alternative to, measures prepared in accordance with US GAAP. There are a number of limitations related to the use of adjusted EBITDA rather than net loss, which is the most directly comparable financial measure calculated and presented in accordance with US GAAP. For example, adjusted EBITDA: (i) excludes stock-based compensation expense because it is a significant non-cash expense that is not directly related to our operating performance; (ii) excludes depreciation expense and, although this is a non-cash expense, the assets being depreciated and amortized may have to be replaced in the future; (iii) excludes gain or losses on equity method investee; and (iv) excludes certain income or expense items that do not provide a comparable measure of our business performance. In addition, the expenses and other items that we exclude in our calculations of adjusted EBITDA may differ from the expenses and other items, if any, that other companies may exclude from adjusted EBITDA when they report their operating results. In addition, other companies may use other measures to evaluate their performance, all of which could reduce the usefulness of our non-GAAP financial measures as tools for comparison.

The Company does not provide a reconciliation of forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures to the most comparable U.S. GAAP financial measures on a forward-looking basis, including adjusted EBITDA, because the Company is unable to predict with reasonable certainty the ultimate outcome of pending litigation, unusual gains and losses, foreign currency exchange gains or losses and potential future asset impairments, as well as discrete taxable events, without unreasonable effort. These items are uncertain, depend on various factors, and could have a material impact on U.S. GAAP results for the guidance period.
