Sanofi Chief Executive Officer, Paul Hudson, commented:

“We closed 2022, marking the successful execution of the first chapter of our 6-year ‘Play to Win’ strategy. Specialty Care delivered the highest sales among our businesses. Dupixent® and Vaccines continue to be our leading growth drivers. We are particularly proud of the progress we made in R&D transformation with multiple approvals of transformative medicines and new product launches across Specialty Care. At the same time, we keep delivering strong proof points of our improved financial performance underpinned by the achievement of the 30% BOI margin. Moving to the next chapter of our strategy, we are looking forward to the planned launches of Altuviiio® and Beyfortus® as well as key pivotal readouts, including the COPD indication for Dupixent®. With the view on the expected entrants of generic competition for Aubagio® in the coming months, we remain confident in our outstanding commercial capabilities, including the ambition to reach sales of 10 billion euros for Dupixent® in 2023, enabling us to guide to low single-digit EPS growth for the year.”
