For Immediate Release
Codexis Reports First Quarter 2012 Results
REDWOOD CITY, Calif. – May 10, 2012 – Codexis, Inc. (NASDAQ: CDXS), a developer of cost-advantaged processes for the production of biofuels, bio-based chemicals, and pharmaceutical intermediates, today announced financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2012.
“In the first quarter of 2012, we saw increased sales in our pharmaceutical business and made continued progress with our development projects and partnerships in bio-based fuels and chemicals,” said Peter Strumph, interim CEO of Codexis. “We remain focused on growing our pharmaceutical portfolio while continuing to advance CodeXyme™ cellulase enzymes and CodeXol™ detergent alcohols toward commercialization.”
First Quarter Financial Highlights:
Revenue: For the first quarter of 2012, the company reported revenues of $31.1 million, in-line with $31.0 million from the first quarter of 2011. Product revenue in the first quarter of 2012 was $15.2 million, a 17% increase over $12.9 million in the prior year quarter, primarily driven by increased sales of atorvastatin-related intermediates. Collaborative research and development revenue of $14.6 million decreased 16% from $17.5 million in the first quarter of 2011.
Operating Expenses: Research and development expenses in the first quarter of 2012 were $16.3 million, an increase of 19% from $13.8 million for the first quarter of 2011. The increase was primarily due to continued development of CodeXol™ detergent alcohol. Selling, general and administrative expenses in the first quarter of 2012 were $9.4 million, an increase of 4% compared to $9.0 million in the same period of 2011.
Net Loss: Net loss was ($7.5) million, or ($0.21) per share, based on 36.1 million weighted average common shares outstanding in the first quarter of 2012. This compares to a net loss of ($3.5) million or ($0.10) per share during the first quarter of 2011.
Adjusted EBITDA: On a non-GAAP basis, Adjusted EBITDA was ($3.1) million in the first quarter of 2012 compared to $1.8 million for the first quarter of 2011. Adjusted EBITDA is calculated by adjusting net loss for net interest expense, income taxes, depreciation, amortization and stock-based compensation. A reconciliation of net loss to Adjusted EBITDA is presented below.

Cash: Cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities at March 31, 2012 were $62.2 million, a 3% decrease compared to $63.8 million at December 31, 2011. The company generated $0.6 million in cash from operations in the first quarter of 2012.

Reconciliation of GAAP to Non-GAAP Financial Information
In this press release, in addition to GAAP financial results, we present Adjusted EBITDA because we believe it assists investors and analysts in comparing our performance across reporting periods on a consistent basis by excluding items that we do not believe are indicative of our core operating performance. In addition, we use Adjusted EBITDA to evaluate the effectiveness of our business strategies.
A reconciliation of GAAP net loss to Adjusted EBITDA is included in the table below.

Adjusted EBITDA has limitations as an analytical tool. Some of these limitations are:
| • | Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect our cash expenditures, or future requirements, for capital expenditures or contractual commitments; |
| • | Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, our working capital needs; |
| • | Although depreciation and amortization are non-cash charges, the assets being depreciated and amortized will often have to be replaced in the future, and Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect any cash requirements for such replacements; and |
| • | Non-cash compensation is and will remain a key element of our overall long-term incentive compensation package, although we exclude it as an expense when evaluating our ongoing operating performance for a particular period. |
Page | 6
Because of these limitations, Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for performance measures calculated in accordance with GAAP. We compensate for these limitations by relying primarily on our GAAP results and using Adjusted EBITDA only supplementally.
