"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."

In the U.S., fourth-quarter sales increased 8.7% (to €4,671 million), supported by the strong performance of Specialty Care driven by Dupixent® .
In Europe, fourth-quarter sales decreased 5.6% (to €2,636 million) reflecting lower flu vaccines sales and deconsolidation of Libtayo® sales, partially offset by Dupixent® and CHC performance.
In the Rest of World region, fourth-quarter sales increased 2.4% (to €3,418 million), reflecting the performance of Specialty Care driven by Dupixent® , growth of General Medicines core assets and CHC which largely offset lower Vaccines sales. Sales in China increased 2.3% to €578 million, driven by Dupixent® , Praluent® , Plavix® and Toujeo® which more than offset the VBP impact on Lantus® and lower Vaccines sales. In Japan, fourth-quarter sales increased 10.9% to €406 million mainly driven by the growth of Dupixent® , Sarclisa® and CHC. In Brazil, fourth-quarter sales were up 4.9% driven by General Medicines core-assets. Full-year 2022 sales in Brazil were down 2.0% reflecting lower Vaccines and Lovenox® sales. In Russia, fourth-quarter sales decreased 0.7% to 172 million. In March 2022, Sanofi has stopped any new spending not related to the supply of its essential and life-changing medicines and vaccines in Russia. This includes all advertising and promotional spending.
The study of the anti PD1/IL-15 fusion protein, SAR445877 (formerly known as KD050, entering our pipeline through Kadmon acquisition) in patients with solid tumors enrolled its first participants.
The study evaluating the safety and tolerability of intravenous SAR446159 (also known as ABL301), an anti-alpha-synuclein/IGF1R mAb in Parkinson's Disease, was initiated in collaboration with ABL Bio.
• Sanofi and Innate Pharma announced an expansion of their collaboration, with Sanofi licensing a natural killer (NK) cell engager program targeting B7H3 from Innate's ANKETTM (Antibody-based NK Cell Engager Therapeutics) platform. Sanofi will also have the option to add up to two additional ANKETTM targets. Upon candidate selection, Sanofi will be responsible for all development, manufacturing and commercialization.
An update of the R&D pipeline at as of Dec 31, 2022, is available on our website: https://www.sanofi.com/en/ science-and-innovation/research-and-development
Sanofi has collaborated with the World Health Organization (WHO) since 2001, with the objective to contribute to eliminate sleeping sickness, or Human African Trypanosomiasis (HAT), by 2030.
Sleeping sickness is a neglected tropical disease, which affects mostly poor populations living in remote rural areas of sub-Saharan Africa. If left untreated, the parasitic disease is usually fatal. Since the start of Sanofi's collaboration with the WHO, the number of cases of sleeping sickness has fallen by 97%, from 26,950 in 2001 to 805 in 2021, dropping below 1,000 for the fourth consecutive year. Through Sanofi's partnership with the World Health Organization (WHO), the company supports disease management, including screening of populations, disease awareness campaign, capacity building, as well as drug donation.
In September 2020, Sanofi and the Drugs for Neglected Diseases initiative (DNDi) signed an agreement to develop and roll out acoziborole, a single dose treatment administered at the point of diagnosis making it a potential game-changer to support the sustainable elimination of the disease once approved. This new chemical entity has been tested in Phase 2/3 clinical studies in Democratic Republic of Congo and Guinea. The results, which were published in the Lancet Infectious Diseases medical journal in November 2022, showed that the 18-month treatment success rate for acoziborole was 95% in late-stage g-HAT patients. The study shows that acoziborole has a favorable safety profile, with no significant drug-related safety signals being reported.
Upon approval, acoziborole could replace fexinidazole, also developed by Sanofi and DNDi and first approved in 2018. Fexinidazole is a ten-day once-a-day treatment that is effective in both the first and the second stages of the disease in adults and children aged six years and older.
Sanofi is accelerating its efforts to address climate change and now build the road to net zero emissions across all operations (scope 1 & 2) and the entire value chain (scope 3) by 2045. This is an acceleration of 5 years compared to Sanofi's previous commitment towards net zero emissions by 2050.
This new commitment will be building on years of work to reduce the environmental footprint of its products and activities. The progress of Sanofi's environmental strategy is disclosed in appendix 10: CSR dashboards.
Sanofi has been recognized again on the 2022 CDP's Climate Change A List for its commitment and transparency in the fight against climate change. In addition, Sanofi has also achieved the leadership score (A-) for its actions to protect water resources.
Sanofi has also been awarded the 2022 Terra Carta Seal. The Seal is being awarded to companies from around the world who are driving innovation and leadership in their industry and tackling climate change. All recipients must have credible transition roadmaps underpinned by globally recognised, scientific metrics for achieving net zero by 2050 or earlier and have ambitions aligned with those of the Terra Carta, a recovery plan for Nature, People and Planet.
Additionally, in recognition of Sanofi' continued CSR strategy implementation, a few of Sanofi's ESG rankings have been positively updated:

When we refer to changes in our net sales "at constant exchange rates" (CER), this means that we exclude the effect of changes in exchange rates.
We eliminate the effect of exchange rates by recalculating net sales for the relevant period at the exchange rates used for the previous period.

Sanofi publishes a key non-GAAP indicator. Business net income is defined as net income attributable to equity holders of Sanofi excluding:
(1) Reported in the line items Restructuring costs and similar items and Gains and losses on disposals, and litigation, which are defined in Notes B.19. and B.20. to our consolidated financial statements.
Free cash flow is a non-GAAP financial indicator which is reviewed by our management, and which we believe provides useful information to measure the net cash generated from the Company's operations that is available for strategic investments1 (net of divestments1 ), for debt repayment, and for capital return to shareholders. Free Cash Flow is determined from the Business Net Income adjusted for depreciation, amortization and impairment, share of profit/loss in associates and joint ventures net of dividends received, gains & losses on disposals, net change in provisions including pensions and other post-employment benefits, deferred taxes, share-based expense and other non-cash items. It comprises net changes in working capital, capital expenditures and other asset acquisitions2 net of disposal proceeds2 , and payments related to restructuring and similar items. Free cash flow is not defined by IFRS and it is not a substitute measure for the IFRS aggregate net cash flows in operating activities.
1Amount of the transaction above a cap of €500 million per transaction (inclusive of all payments related to the transaction). 2Not exceeding a cap of €500 million per transaction (inclusive of all payments related to the transaction).
