PRESS RELEASE

Biocon Biologics Expands Footprint in Emerging Markets Takes Over the Commercialization of Biosimilars Business from Viatris in 70+ countries

Bengaluru, Karnataka, India: July 5, 2023

Biocon Biologics Ltd (BBL) , a subsidiary of Biocon Ltd (BSE code: 532523, NSE: BIOCON), today announced that the company has completed the integration of the acquired biosimilars business in over 70 countries in Emerging Markets effective July 1, 2023, increasing the scale and scope of its business.

Following the deal closure in November 2022, this marks the first wave of countries where Viatris' operations have fully transitioned to Biocon Biologics. A robust integration plan has ensured a seamless transition of partners, people, systems, and processes across these countries.

The existing commercialized portfolio of biosimilars, including bTrastuzumab, bPegfilgrastim, bBevacizumab, bGlargine, bAspart, bAdalimumab, and bEtanercept, managed by Viatris in these markets, is now a part of Biocon Biologics’ commercial organization. We will work with existing and new partners to expand our footprint and strengthen our business presence in these countries. Our best-in-class R&D capabilities, high-quality manufacturing, supply chain excellence, and commercial and regulatory expertise will enable us to expand access to a diverse portfolio of biosimilars, meet patients’ needs and be a trusted partner to patients and the healthcare community in these markets.

Shreehas Tambe, CEO & Managing Director, Biocon Biologics said : “The successful integration of Viatris’ biosimilars business to Biocon Biologics in over 70 countries is a significant milestone and marks the beginning of the transition process. Working closely with our partners, Biocon Biologics will now lead commercial operations in these markets and broaden access to patients with our differentiated portfolio of high quality biosimilars. This first wave in the transition process comes ahead of plan, thanks to the tireless efforts of our colleagues at both companies, our advisors and partners who worked relentlessly to make this happen.”

Susheel Umesh, Chief Commercial Officer - Emerging Markets, Biocon Biologics said: “The transitioning of these 70+ Emerging Markets to Biocon Biologics from Viatris marks the first phase of the business integration plan charted out for the acquired business. This will allow Biocon Biologics to meaningfully expand the geographic reach of the existing biosimilars portfolio and future pipeline into growth markets where Viatris has existing sales infrastructure and local market expertise. Working closely with key stakeholders in these markets will allow us to ensure reliable supplies of our biosimilars for those who need them the most, while enabling us to capitalize on the rapidly expanding global biosimilars opportunity.”

Addressing Need for Biosimilars in EMs

Noncommunicable diseases (NCDs) have emerged as the leading cause of death and disability in Emerging Markets. Each year, 17 million* people die from a NCD before age 70; and 86% of these premature deaths occur in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs). Of the 41 million* deaths due to NCDs each year, 77% are in LMICs. Biologic therapies have had transformative and far-reaching effects particularly within some of the leading NCD therapy areas: cancer, diabetes, and immunology. Biosimilars present an enormous opportunity to provide affordable access to these advanced therapies. By expanding access to cost-effective biosimilars, Biocon Biologics seeks to facilitate the achievement of Target 3.4 of the UN Sustainable Development Goals SDGs by 2030 – i.e.; reduce premature mortality from Non-Communicable Diseases by one third through prevention and treatment.
