There are currently 5.0 million Codexis shares held short by investors – that's known as Codexis's "short interest". This figure is 9.4% down from 5.5 million last month.
There are a few different ways that this level of interest in shorting Codexis shares can be evaluated.
Codexis's "short interest ratio" (SIR) is the quantity of Codexis shares currently shorted divided by the average quantity of Codexis shares traded daily (recently around 678411.08108108). Codexis's SIR currently stands at 7.4. In other words for every 100,000 Codexis shares traded daily on the market, roughly 7400 shares are currently held short.
However Codexis's short interest can also be evaluated against the total number of Codexis shares, or, against the total number of tradable Codexis shares (the shares that aren't held by "insiders" or major long-term shareholders – also known as the "float"). In this case Codexis's short interest could be expressed as 0.08% of the outstanding shares (for every 100,000 Codexis shares in existence, roughly 80 shares are currently held short) or 0.0812% of the tradable shares (for every 100,000 tradable Codexis shares, roughly 81 shares are currently held short).
A SIR below 10% would generally be considered to indicate a fairly optimistic outlook for the share price, with fewer people currently willing to bet against Codexis.

We're not expecting Codexis to pay a dividend over the next 12 months.
Over the last 12 months, Codexis's shares have ranged in value from as little as $8.43 up to $29.56. A popular way to gauge a stock's volatility is its "beta".
Beta is a measure of a share's volatility in relation to the market. The market (NASDAQ average) beta is 1, while Codexis's is 1.1483. This would suggest that Codexis's shares are a little bit more volatile than the average for this exchange and represent, relatively-speaking, a slightly higher risk (but potentially also market-beating returns).
