Sanofi Chief Executive Officer, Paul Hudson, commented:

“I am encouraged by the fourth quarter results which position Sanofi to deliver on our new strategic priorities. The acceleration in sales performance was mainly driven by the impressive growth of Dupixent^®, our transformative medicine for type 2 inflammatory diseases and by our differentiated Vaccines portfolio. At the same time, our sharpened focus on operating and financial efficiencies helped us to deliver margin expansion and significant cash flow improvement. We are making great progress in our ambition to transform Sanofi R&D and I am particularly excited by the positive proof of concept data for our BTK inhibitor, a potentially practice changing therapy for multiple sclerosis, announced today. There is increasing momentum across the entire Sanofi organization and I am confident we will achieve the long-term growth aspirations and margin targets we set out at our Capital Markets Day”.

Global Business Units

At its Capital Markets Day in December 2019, Sanofi announced plans for a new GBU organization⁽⁷⁾ which will include three core GBUs, Specialty Care, General Medicines and Vaccines together with a standalone Consumer Healthcare business. The General Medicines GBU will be created from two existing GBUs, Primary Care and China & Emerging Markets. Each GBU will include its respective Emerging Markets sales contribution.
Olivier Charmeil has been appointed to lead the General Medicines GBU. Olivier is one of Sanofi’s most seasoned business leaders. He will draw on his recent experience leading the China & Emerging Markets GBU to engage with customers and markets and ensure that our combined Diabetes, Cardiovascular and Established Products business drives growth and deliver for patients around the world.
Alongside the GBU reorganization, Sanofi will implement changes in the configuration of its Executive Committee. This leadership committee will now include, in addition to the four GBU Heads, the global Heads of R&D, Industrial Affairs, Finance, Human Resources and Legal, together with the Chief Digital Officer. A leaner configuration will foster agility and speed in decision-making, in line with the fourth priority of the company’s new strategy (“Reinvent How We Work”).

Dupixent^® (collaboration with Regeneron) generated sales of €679 million in the fourth quarter (up 135%). In the U.S., Dupixent^® sales of €545 million (up 135%) were driven by continued growth in atopic dermatitis which benefited from increased penetration in adult patients and launch in the adolescent age group (12 to 17 years of age) in March, together with rapid uptake in asthma and launch in chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyposis (CRSwNP, approved in June). In the U.S., Dupixent^® NBRx and TRx more than doubled in the quarter compared to the fourth quarter of 2018, growing at 108% and 117%, respectively.

In Emerging Markets, fourth-quarter Lantus^® sales were stable at €244 million reflecting lower sales in the Middle-East. Full-year 2019 Lantus^® sales decreased 17.0% to €3,012 million.
On January 28, 2020, Sanofi’s petition for rehearing the Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit decision affirming the December 2018 PTAB decisions invalidating the Lantus^® formulation patents was denied. Mylan currently does not have FDA approval for either its vial or pen product.

Fourth-quarter Toujeo^® sales increased 8.5% to €234 million. In the U.S., fourth-quarter Toujeo^® sales were €77 million, down 7.4% mainly reflecting lower average net price and the increased contribution to the coverage gap related to Medicare Part D. In Europe and Emerging Markets, fourth-quarter Toujeo^® sales were €87 million (up 14.3%) and €48 million (up 48.4%), respectively. Full-year 2019 Toujeo^® sales increased 3.2% to €883 million.

Fourth-quarter and full-year 2019 Amaryl^® sales were €79 million (stable) and €334 million (down 2.1%), respectively. In China, the second wave of the nationwide VBP (volume-based procurement) program includes glimepiride in 2020 and Sanofi has opted not to bid with Amaryl^®. In China, Amaryl^® sales were €136 million (up 3.1%) in 2019. Sanofi expects sales of Amaryl^® in China to decline significantly in 2020 due to the extended VBP program.

Fourth-quarter Apidra^® sales decreased 2.2% to €88 million. Lower sales in the U.S. (down 47.1% to €10 million) offset growth in Emerging Markets (up 20.7% to €34 million). Full-year 2019 Apidra^® sales were €344 million, down 3.6%.

Admelog^® (insulin lispro injection) generated sales of €56 million (down 1.8%) in the fourth quarter. Admelog^® sales in the U.S. were €52 million, down 7.4% due to the WAC price adjustment of -44% which took effect on July 1, 2019. Full-year 2019 Admelog^® sales were €250 million versus €93 million in 2018. Sanofi expects lower Admelog^® sales in 2020 due to the full-year impact of the U.S. WAC price adjustment.

Fourth-quarter and full-year 2019 Soliqua^® 100/33 (insulin glargine 100 Units/mL & lixisenatide 33 mcg/mL injection) and Suliqua™ sales increased 41% (to €39 million) and 60% (to €122 million), respectively.

Total Established Rx Products	2,276	*-6.3%*	9,559	*-8.3%*

In the fourth quarter, Established Rx Products sales decreased 6.3% to €2,276 million, primarily reflecting the decline in Plavix^® and Aprovel^® family sales in China due to net price adjustments and inventory reduction in the channel following the nationwide implementation of the VBP program in December. Full-year 2019 Established Rx Products sales decreased 8.3% to €9,559 million (down 4.1% at CS) reflecting divestment of the European generics business at the end of the third quarter of 2018.

Fourth-quarter Lovenox^®sales decreased 4.0% to €335 million, reflecting lower Mature Markets sales (down 14.4% to €197 million) due to biosimilar competition in several countries in Europe. In Emerging Markets, Lovenox^® sales grew 16.2% to €138 million. Full-year 2019 Lovenox^® sales were down 7.4% to €1,359 million.

In the fourth quarter, Plavix^®sales were down 36.9% to €212 million, primarily reflecting the decrease in China (sales down 69.1% to €55 million) due to net price adjustments and inventory reduction in the channel following the nationwide implementation of the VBP program in December. In Japan, Plavix^® sales decreased 21.1% to €32 million due to a price reduction in October 2019. Full-year 2019 Plavix^® sales decreased 8.8% to €1,334 million.

Fourth-quarter Aprovel^®/Avapro^® sales were down 15.2% to €131 million, primarily reflecting the decrease in China (sales down 40.6% to €40 million) due to net price adjustments and inventory reduction in the channel following nationwide implementation of the VBP program in December. Full-year 2019 Aprovel^®/Avapro^® sales increased 2.0% to €674 million.

As previously announced, Sanofi expects sales of Plavix^® and the Aprovel^® family in China to decline by around 50% in 2020 due to implementation of the VBP program.

Fourth-quarter Renvela^®/Renagel^®(sevelamer) sales decreased 15.6% to €82 million, due to generic competition in the U.S. (down 40.4% to €35 million) and despite growth in China. Full-year 2019 Renvela^®/Renagel^® sales decreased 26.5% to €311 million.

In the fourth quarter, Generics sales decreased 0.4% to €271 million, including stable sales in Emerging Markets (at €172 million). Full-year 2019 Generics sales were €1,075 million, down 27.9% (up 3.9% at CS), reflecting the divestment of the European generics business at the end of the third quarter of 2018.

Total Consumer Healthcare	1,152	*-5.2%*	4,687	*-0.8%*

In the fourth quarter, Consumer Healthcare (CHC) sales decreased 5.2% to €1,152 million. Over half of the decline was related to the voluntary recall of Zantac^®. In addition, divestments of non-core products and product suspensions due to changing regulatory requirements impacted sales performance. These factors are expected to have a dampening effect on CHC performance through the first half of 2020. Full-year 2019 CHC sales decreased 0.8% to €4,687 million.

In September 2019, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and Health Canada issued public statements alerting that some ranitidine medicines, including Zantac^® OTC, could contain NDMA at low levels and asked manufacturers to conduct testing. Evaluations are ongoing on both drug substance (active ingredient) and finished drug product. Due to inconsistencies in preliminary test results of the active ingredient used in the U.S. and Canadian products, Sanofi decided to conduct the voluntary recall in the U.S. and Canada in October 2019.

In Europe, fourth-quarter CHC sales decreased 11.7% to €325 million, impacted by changing regulatory requirements as well as divestments of non-strategic brands. Full-year 2019 CHC sales in Europe were down 6.4% to €1,311 million.

In the U.S., fourth-quarter CHC sales decreased 12.8% to €246 million, reflecting the impact of the Zantac^® recall. In the fourth quarter, Zantac^® sales were -€3m compared to €31 million in the fourth quarter of 2018, reflecting the recall as well as additional provisions for returns. Full-year 2019 CHC sales in the U.S. were down 3.6% to €1,086 million.

In Emerging Markets, fourth-quarter CHC sales increased 3.0% to €425 million, driven by performance in Asia. Full-year 2019 CHC sales in Emerging Markets increased 4.7% to €1,652 million.

In the Rest of the World, fourth-quarter CHC sales increased 2.7% to €156 million, driven by the strong performance of Allegra^® in Japan.

Total Vaccines	1,908	*+22.0%*	5,731	*+9.3%*

Fourth-quarter Vaccines sales increased 22.0% to €1,908 million as the majority of U.S. influenza vaccines shipments occurred in the quarter, reflecting the delay in strain selection by the WHO at the beginning of the year. As a consequence, U.S. fourth-quarter Vaccines sales were up 33.1% to €1,002 million. In Europe and Emerging Markets, fourth-quarter Vaccines sales were up 15.1% (to €275 million) and up 14.2% (to €552 million), respectively, also driven by influenza vaccines performance. Full-year 2019 Vaccines sales were up 9.3% to €5,731 million.

In the fourth quarter, Polio/Pertussis/Hib (PPH) vaccines sales decreased 13.7% to €443 million, reflecting unfavorable delivery phasing of Hexaxim^® in Emerging Markets. Fourth-quarter Emerging Markets PPH vaccines sales were down 16.4% to €243 million. In the U.S., PPH vaccines sales were up 3.9% to €110 million in the fourth quarter driven by Pentacel^®. In Europe, over the period, PPH vaccines sales were down 9.6% to €75 million due to unfavorable delivery phasing on pediatric vaccines. Full-year 2019 PPH vaccines sales were up 9.8% to €1,946 million.

Influenza vaccines sales increased 69.1% to €1,039 million in the fourth quarter, as the majority of U.S. influenza vaccines shipments occurred in the quarter (up 65.7% to €705 million).

Fourth-quarter sales in the U.S. increased 11.8% to €3,684 million, reflecting strong Dupixent^®performance and quarterly phasing of influenza vaccines shipments. Full-year 2019 U.S. sales increased 5.0% to €12,756 million.

Fourth-quarter sales in Emerging Markets rose 1.8% to €2,675 million as growth in Vaccines (up 14.2%) and Diabetes (up 7.4%) was largely offset by lower sales of Established Rx Products (down 9.3%). In Asia, fourth-quarter sales were down 9.0% to €883 million, due to lower sales in China (down 21.0% to €453 million), mainly reflecting the impact of the VBP program. In Latin America, fourth-quarter sales increased 7.5% to €744 million driven by Mexico performance. Fourth-quarter sales in Brazil were up 2.4% to €249 million. In Africa and the Middle East region, fourth-quarter sales were up 3.2% to €634 million, mainly reflecting order phasing. Fourth-quarter sales in the Eurasia region increased 19.8% to €360 million, supported by strong growth in Turkey. Fourth-quarter sales in Russia were €168 million, up 1.3%. In Emerging Markets, full-year 2019 sales increased 8.7% to €10,914 million. In 2019, sales in China, Brazil and Russia were €2,704 million (up 8.8%), €1,013 million (up 1.6%) and €673 million (up 9.1%), respectively.

Fourth-quarter sales in Europe were stable at €2,344 million. Over the period, Dupixent^®and Vaccines performance were offset by lower Lovenox^®, Lemtrada^®, Lantus^® and CHC sales. In Europe, full-year 2019 sales decreased 6.1% (-1.3% at CS) to €8,852 million, reflecting divestment of the European generics business at the end of the third quarter of 2018.

Sales in Japan increased 0.5% to €455 million in the fourth quarter, driven by Dupixent^® which offset lower sales of Plavix^® and Vaccines. In Japan, full-year 2019 sales increased 4.6% to €1,908 million.

Appendix 11: Definitions of non-GAAP financial indicators

Company

“Company” corresponds to Sanofi and its subsidiaries.

Company sales at constant exchange rates (CER)

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.

Reconciliation of net sales to Company sales at constant exchange rates for the fourth quarter and full-year 2019

€ million	Q4 2019	2019
Net sales	9,608	36,126
Effect of exchange rates	184	688
Company sales at constant exchange rates	9,424	35,438

Business net income

Sanofi publishes a key non-GAAP indicator.
Business net income is defined as net income attributable to equity holders of Sanofi excluding:

amortization of intangible assets,
impairment of intangible assets,
fair value remeasurement of contingent consideration related to business combinations or to disposals,
other impacts associated with acquisitions (including impacts of acquisitions on associates and joint ventures),
restructuring costs and similar items⁽¹⁾,
other gains and losses (including gains and losses on disposals of non-current assets⁽¹⁾),
effects of IFRS16 on lease accounting,
costs or provisions associated with litigation⁽¹⁾,
tax effects related to the items listed above as well as effects of major tax disputes,
net income attributable to non-controlling interests related to the items listed above,

(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

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.
²Not exceeding a cap of €500 million per transaction.

IFRS 16

The new lease accounting standard (IFRS16) impact mainly comes from the amortization of the lease asset recognized on a straight-line basis while the interest expense decreases over the life of the lease. IFRS16 standard is effective as of 1 January 2019. The impact on business EPS is -2 cents in 2019. In 2020, Sanofi will report Business Net Income and 2019 comparative, applying IFRS16 for both periods. 2019 comparative numbers will be available in Q1 2020.
