Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On May 9, 2024, LanzaTech Global, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into an At Market Issuance Sales Agreement (the “Sales Agreement”) and a Terms Agreement (the “Terms Agreement” and, together with the Sales Agreement, the “ATM Agreements”) with B. Riley Securities, Inc. (“B. Riley Securities”), pursuant to which the Company may, from time to time, offer and sell shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (“Common Stock”), having an aggregate offering price of up to $100 million (the “Shares”).

Sales of the Shares under the ATM Agreements, if any, may be made by any method that is deemed an “at the market offering” as defined in Rule 415 promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). The Shares will be offered through or to B. Riley Securities, acting as agent in connection with agency transactions or as principal in connection with any principal transactions. Pursuant to the Terms Agreement, the Company will have the right, but not the obligation, from time to time at its sole discretion, for as long as the Sales Agreement remains effective, to direct B. Riley Securities on any trading day to act on a principal basis and purchase up to $180,000 per day, up to $900,000 per week, and up to $40 million per twelve-month period, subject to any applicable limitations pursuant to the rules and regulations of The Nasdaq Stock Market, LLC (the aggregate amount so purchased by B. Riley Securities under the Terms Agreement, the “Commitment”), which Commitment will be included within the aggregate offering price of up to $100 million of Common Stock sold pursuant to the ATM Agreements; provided, however, that only one principal sale may be requested per day unless otherwise agreed to by B. Riley Securities.

B. Riley Securities will be entitled to receive from the Company a commission in an amount (i) up to 3.0% of the gross sales price per Share sold through it as agent in agency transactions and (ii) equal to 5.0% of the purchase price per Share sold to B. Riley Securities, as principal in principal transactions. The Company has agreed to provide B. Riley Securities with customary indemnification and contribution rights. The Company will also reimburse B. Riley Securities for certain specified expenses as set forth in the Sales Agreement.

The issuance and sale, if any, of the Shares by the Company under the ATM Agreements is subject to the effectiveness of the Company’s registration statement on Form S-3 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on May 9, 2024. The Company makes no assurances as to if or when the registration statement will become effective or, if it does become effective, as to the continued effectiveness of the registration statement.

The Sales Agreement may be terminated by either B. Riley Securities or the Company, as permitted therein. The Sales Agreement will automatically terminate upon the sale of all of the Shares subject to the Sales Agreement.

This Current Report shall not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy any securities of the Company, nor shall there be any sale of such securities in any jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to registration or qualification under the securities laws of any such jurisdiction.

Title:						General Counsel and Corporate Secretary

LanzaTech Announces First Quarter 2024 Financial Results and Reiterates Full Year 2024 Outlook Achieved total revenue of $10.2 million for first quarter 2024 in-line with annual guidance and consistent with outlook of back-end weighted full year 2024 revenue Reiterating full year 2024 outlook including total revenue of $90 - $105 million Cash, restricted cash, and investments of $92.3 million at March 31, 2024 CHICAGO, IL (May 9, 2024) – LanzaTech Global, Inc. (Nasdaq: LNZA) (“LanzaTech” or the “Company”), the carbon recycling company transforming waste carbon into sustainable raw materials, today reported its financial and operating results for the first quarter 2024 and reiterated its previously issued financial outlook for full year 2024. “We delivered first quarter financial results in-line with our previously issued annual guidance, while achieving a key milestone with Project SECURE, showcasing our capacity for innovative, scalable carbon recycling solutions,” said Jennifer Holmgren, Board Chair and Chief Executive Officer of LanzaTech. “The robust growth in LanzaJet and the SAF market more broadly mirrors the rising demand for our waste-based ethanol, reflecting the expansion and impact of our commercial project pipeline, as well as the growing focus on and adoption of alternative aviation fuels. We're laying the groundwork for the emerging carbon economy, supported by our steadfast commitment and clear financial path forward, ensuring our efforts today shape a sustainable, deliberate future.” First Quarter 2024 Financial Results In the first quarter of 2024, revenue totaled $10.2 million, reflecting an increase of 6% compared to $9.6 million in the first quarter of 2023 and in-line with the Company’s previously issued guidance. The year- over-year growth in revenue reflects growth in the CarbonSmart and Joint Development Agreements & Contract Research businesses. Biorefining revenue declined year-over-year in the first quarter of 2024, as anticipated, to $5.0 million but saw strong contributions from engineering services revenue across projects in both early and advanced-stage engineering as well as from startup services associated with the ArcelorMittal facility in Belgium. Cost of revenues in the first quarter of 2024 totaled $6.8 million, driving gross profit of $3.5 million, up 87% year-over-year. Gross margin was 34% for the first quarter 2024, a 15 percentage point increase year- over year, reflecting a continued focus on revenue quality which drove a greater mix of high-margin engineering services and Joint Development Agreement work. Operating expenses declined 14% year-over-year in the first quarter of 2024, totaling $29.6 million. However, operating expenses increased quarter-on-quarter in the first quarter 2024 due to higher research

and development and SG&A expenses driven by personnel costs and severance costs associated with the reorganization announced last quarter. Net loss totaled $(25.5) million for the first quarter of 2024, compared to a net loss of $(63.3) million in the prior year period. Adjusted EBITDA loss for the first quarter of 2024 increased quarter-on-quarter to $(22.1) million, with the increase primarily driven by the decline in revenue compared to the fourth quarter 2023. Operational Highlights • Project SECURE Selected by US Department of Energy to Receive up to $200 Million Investment – In March 2024, LanzaTech and its partner Technip Energies announced that they were selected by the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) to begin award negotiations for up to a $200 million investment grant to fund the previously announced Project SECURE. Project SECURE will be sited in the US and aims to develop a transformational technology to produce sustainable ethylene from captured carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions at an ethylene cracker operating at a major petrochemical facility. We believe that Project SECURE offers an immediate and replicable solution to decarbonize ethylene production using existing infrastructure. This provides a signficant commercial opportunity for LanzaTech and Technip Energies to rapidly penetrate the ethylene market with this technology integration offering and capture a significant portion of this market, estimated to reach $200 billion annually, given our established licensing models. • Sustainable Aviation Fuel Momentum and Freedom Pines Fuels Facility Startup Initiation – LanzaJet’s 10 million gallon per year ethanol-to-sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) facility completed construction in January 2024 and is on track for production of fuel in the second quarter 2024. LanzaTech’s ethanol will be a critical feedstock for SAF, and when coupled with LanzaJet’s technology, enables production of SAF from a variety of waste inputs and residues, including municipal solid waste and e-fuels. • Project Development Pipeline Continues Expansion – The Company added 9 net new qualified project opportunities into the first phase and 1 net addition into the advanced engineering phase of its expanding development project pipeline during the first quarter of 2024. The Company also continues to expect that several projects currently in advanced engineering will achieve Final Investment Decision (FID) and move into the construction phase in the second half of 2024. The Company continues to progress towards full production capacity 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 6 commercial projects is approximately 310,000 tons of ethanol per year. Organizational Streamlining Initiative The recently announced executive reorganization and streamlining initiative is well underway with most major changes across the executive team now complete and a company-wide review of corporate G&A savings opportunities completed. The associated cost savings initiatives are also well underway and on track to deliver the previously estimated full year cost reductions. Balance Sheet, Liquidity and Other Updates

As of March 31, 2024, LanzaTech had $92.3 million in total cash, restricted cash, and investments, compared to $121.4 million at the end of the fourth quarter 2023. Total cash burn in the first quarter of 2024 was $29.2 million, which was up quarter over quarter as a result of the lower revenue and also was materially impacted by a number of large annual payments, including 2023 incentive compensation, 2024 insurance premiums, and others that are expensed throughout the year but paid in the first quarter. Management continues to believe its current liquidity position provides adequate financial flexibility to execute on its near-term objectives and obligations. The Company will continue to opportunistically and patiently explore other strategic financing alternatives to ensure it is best positioned to achieve its long-term growth objectives. The Company filed with the SEC today a universal shelf registration statement on Form S-3 that includes a prospectus offering for an At-the-Market, or ATM, issuance for up to $100 million of the Company’s common shares which, subject to effectiveness, provides a tool to opportunistically leverage and access capital. “LanzaTech recently marked a significant milestone by passing the one-year anniversary of our business combination, which makes us eligible for Form S-3 filing,” said Geoff Trukenbrod, Chief Financial Officer of LanzaTech. “Earlier today, as part of normal course, we filed a universal shelf registration statement on Form S-3, including a new $100 million At-the-Market (ATM) facility. While we currently have sufficient liquidity to meet our near-term objectives and obligations, the Form S-3, once effective, helps us to maintain financial flexibility and agility over both the near and long-term. Although there are no immediate plans to utilize the ATM facility, once the Form S-3 is effective it equips us to efficiently and opportunistically capitalize on future opportunities as they arise, with a constant focus on accelerating LanzaTech’s growth and path to profitability.” Reiterating Full Year 2024 Financial and Operating Outlook The Company is reiterating its previously issued financial and operating outlook for the full year 2024. Management expects total revenue of $90 - $105 million and adjusted EBITDA of $(65) - $(55) million. The current outlook includes expected annual growth across all components of the business and at the midpoint, approximately 55% revenue growth over last year. The Company continues to expect its financial performance to be significantly back-end weighted to the second half of 2024.

Forward Looking Statements This press release includes forward-looking statements regarding, among other things, the plans, strategies and prospects, both business and financial, of LanzaTech. These statements are based on the beliefs and assumptions of LanzaTech’s management. Although LanzaTech believes that its plans, intentions and expectations reflected in or suggested by these forward-looking statements are reasonable, LanzaTech cannot assure you that it will achieve or realize these plans, intentions or expectations. Forward-looking statements are inherently subject to risks, uncertainties and assumptions. Generally, statements that are not historical facts, including statements concerning possible or assumed future actions, business strategies, events or results of operations, are forward-looking statements. These statements may be preceded by, followed by or include the words “believes,” “estimates,” “expects,” “projects,” “forecasts,” “may,” “will,” “should,” “seeks,” “plans,” “scheduled,” “anticipates,” “intends” or similar expressions. The forward-looking statements are based on projections prepared by, and are the responsibility of, LanzaTech’s management. These forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance, conditions or results, and involve a number of known and unknown risks, uncertainties, assumptions and other important factors, many of which are outside LanzaTech’s control, that could cause actual results or outcomes to differ materially from those discussed in the forward- looking statements. LanzaTech may be adversely affected by other economic, business, or competitive factors, and other risks and uncertainties, including those described under the header “Risk Factors” in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023 filed by LanzaTech with the SEC, and in future SEC filings. New risk factors that may affect actual results or outcomes emerge from time to time and it is not possible to predict all such risk factors, nor can LanzaTech assess the impact of all such risk factors on its business, or the extent to which any factor or combination of factors may cause

actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements. Forward- looking statements are not guarantees of performance. You should not put undue reliance on these statements, which speak only as of the date hereof. All forward-looking statements attributable to LanzaTech or persons acting on its behalf are expressly qualified in their entirety by the foregoing cautionary statements. LanzaTech undertakes no obligations to update or revise publicly any forward- looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by law. 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. LANZATECH GLOBAL INC.

SAFE HARBOR STATEMENT 2

FINANCIAL INFORMATION & NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES 3 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 Forward Purchase Agreement (“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 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.
