In accordance with IFRS 5 (Non-Current Assets Held for Sale and Discontinued Operations), Animal Health results in 2016 and gain on disposal in 2017 are reported separately. Third-quarter and first nine months 2017 income statements also reflect the consolidation of European operations related to Sanofi vaccine portfolio, following the termination of the Sanofi Pasteur MSD joint venture (SPMSD JV) with Merck at the end of 2016.
Q3 2017 sales performance supported by Sanofi Genzyme, Sanofi Pasteur and Emerging Markets
|
| Sanofi Chief Executive Officer, Olivier Brandicourt, commented: "The strong launch of Dupixent® in the U.S., the continued double-digit growth of our Multiple Sclerosis franchise and the performance of our pediatric vaccines were important drivers in the quarter. These positive dynamics, accompanied by robust growth in Emerging Markets and disciplined expense management, offset the decline of our Diabetes franchise. We are pleased by the progress in R&D demonstrated by the positive phase 3 topline results in asthma for Dupixent® and the recent advances of cemiplimab, our anti PD-1, in oncology." |

2017 third-quarter and nine-months Sanofi sales
| Unless otherwise indicated, all percentage changes in sales in this press release are stated at CER(8). |
In the third quarter of 2017, Company sales were €9,053 million, up 0.3% on a reported basis. Exchange rate movements had a negative effect of 4.4 percentage points mainly reflecting the movement of the U.S. Dollar, Japanese Yen, Egyptian Pound, Chinese Yuan and Turkish Lira. Company sales benefited from the acquisition of Boehringer Ingelheim's CHC business and full consolidation of Sanofi's European vaccines operations leading to an increase of 4.7% at CER. At CER and constant structure, Company sales were down 0.2%.
First nine months Company sales reached €26,364 million, up 5.7% on a reported basis. Exchange rate movements had a negative effect of 0.5 percentage points. At CER and constant structure, Company sales were up 1.2%.

| Soliqua® | 8 | - | 17 | - |
| Total Diabetes | 1,552 | -10.0% | 4,862 | -9.5% |
In the third quarter, global Diabetes sales decreased 10.0% to €1,552 million, reflecting lower Lantus® sales in the U.S. Third-quarter U.S. Diabetes sales were down 22.4% to €745 million. Year-to-date U.S. Diabetes sales decreased 20.2% to €2,398 million. As previously indicated, Sanofi expects an accelerated decline of U.S. diabetes sales in the fourth quarter of 2017 relative to the year-to-date performance. This reflects the phased impact of exclusions in commercial formularies at CVS and United Health as well as a high basis of comparison in the fourth quarter of 2016. Third-quarter sales in Emerging Markets increased 17.3% to €375 million. Third-quarter sales in Europe decreased 3.1% to €313 million reflecting market share gains which were more than offset by net price adjustments in Italy and Spain. Year-to-date global Diabetes sales decreased 9.5% to €4,862 million.
In the third quarter, Sanofi glargine (Lantus® and Toujeo®) sales decreased 11.3% to €1,321 million. U.S. Sanofi glargine sales were down 23.1% to €716 million, reflecting the impact of the exclusion from the CVS commercial formulary from January 1, 2017 as well as from the United Health commercial formulary which became effective on April 1, 2017. In Europe, Sanofi glargine sales decreased 3.2% to €238 million due to biosimilar competition in several European markets. Year-to-date Sanofi glargine sales decreased 10.9% to €4,146 million.
In the third quarter, Lantus® sales were €1,123 million down 15.5%. In the U.S., Lantus® sales decreased 25.4% to €608 million mainly reflecting lower average net price and the aforementioned impact of formulary exclusions. In Europe, third-quarter Lantus® sales were €184 million (down 14.0%) due to biosimilar competition and patients switching to Toujeo®. In Emerging Markets, third-quarter sales were up 17.2% to €256 million. Year-to-date Lantus® sales decreased 16.3% to €3,546 million.
In August, Sanofi filed a patent infringement suit against Merck in the United States District Court for the District of New Jersey. In its suit Sanofi alleges infringement of two patents. The suit was triggered by a notification received from Merck in late June in which Merck stated that it had filed an NDA (505(b)(2) New Drug Application) with FDA for an insulin glargine vial drug product. Merck also stated that its NDA included a paragraph IV certification challenging all of the Sanofi patents then listed in the FDA Orange Book for Sanofi's Lantus® and Lantus® SoloStar® products.
In October, Sanofi filed a patent infringement suit against Mylan in the United States District Court for the District of New Jersey. In its suit Sanofi alleges infringement of 18 patents. The suit was triggered by notifications received from Mylan beginning in mid-September, in which Mylan stated that it had filed a NDA (505(b)(2) New Drug Application) with the FDA for insulin glargine pre-filled pen and vial drug products. Mylan also stated that its NDA included a paragraph IV certification challenging all of the Sanofi patents then listed in the FDA Orange Book for Sanofi's Lantus® (insulin glargine injection, 100 Units/mL) and Lantus® SoloStar® products.
Third-quarter Toujeo® sales were €198 million (up 23.4%) of which €108 million (down 6.6%) were recorded in the U.S., €54 million in Europe (up 66.7%) and €19 million in Emerging Markets (versus €3 million in the third quarter of 2016). Year-to-date Toujeo® sales increased 45.0% to €600 million.
Amaryl® sales were €82 million, down 3.3% in the third quarter, of which €70 million were generated in Emerging Markets (up 4.1%). Year-to-date Amaryl® sales were down 1.1% to €256 million.
Third-quarter Apidra® sales were stable at €89 million. Lower sales in the U.S. (down 25.8% to €21 million) were offset by strong growth in Emerging Markets (up 26.3%% to €22 million) and in Europe (up 9.4% to €35 million). Year-to-date Apidra® sales increased 3.7% to €280 million.
Soliqua® 100/33 (insulin glargine 100 Units/mL & lixisenatide 33 mcg/mL injection) was launched in the U.S. in January 2017 and SuliquaTM recently launched in the first European country, the Netherlands. In the U.S., payer coverage is improving and access was secured for 65% of commercial lives by the close of the third quarter. Soliqua® 100/33 / SuliquaTM sales were €8 million in the third quarter and €17 million in the first nine months.
Following contracting negotiations with U.S. payers, Sanofi has secured coverage for Lantus® and Toujeo® on the vast majority of formularies in the U.S. for 2018. Given the increased visibility on sales performance, Sanofi refines its global Diabetes franchise outlook and now expects a sales decline at an average annualized rate of between 6% and 8% at CER over the 2015-2018 time frame.
Cardiovascular franchise
Third-quarter Praluent® sales (collaboration with Regeneron) were €42 million of which €28 million was in the U.S. and €12 million in Europe. This reflected significant payer utilization management restrictions in the U.S. and limited market access in Europe. First nine months Praluent® sales were €118 million versus €68 million in the first nine months of 2016.
In October 2017, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit ordered a new trial and vacated the permanent injunction in the dispute concerning Amgen's asserted patent claims for antibodies targeting PCSK9. This ruling means that Sanofi and Regeneron will continue marketing, selling and manufacturing Praluent® in the U.S.
Third-quarter and year-to-date Multaq® sales were €81 million (down 4.5%) and €262 million (up 0.8%), respectively.

| Other | 1,051 | -0.4% | 3,346 | -2.6% |
| Total Established Rx Products | 2,264 | -6.5% | 7,463 | -2.7% |
In the third quarter, Established Rx Products sales decreased 6.5% to €2,264 million. This reflected a decline in sales in Europe (down 4.4% to €816 million), the onset of generic competition to Renvela®/Renagel® in the U.S. and the impact of generic competition to Plavix® in Japan, which more than offset a solid Emerging Markets performance (up 4.4% to €926 million). Year-to-date Established Rx Products sales decreased 2.7% to €7,463 million.
Lovenox® sales decreased 5.4% to €370 million in the third quarter, reflecting increased competition in Europe (down 10.9% to €220 million) which more than offset the growth in Emerging Markets (up 2.5% to €112 million). As of September, biosimilars have been introduced in the UK and Germany. Year-to-date Lovenox® sales decreased 1.9% to €1,187 million.
In the third quarter, Plavix® sales were down 4.7% to €358 million due to generic competition in Japan that started in June 2015 (sales in Japan were down 31.8% to €53 million). In Emerging Markets, third-quarter Plavix sales increased 5.0% to €254 million sustained by the performance in China. Year-to-date Plavix® sales decreased 2.3% to €1,123 million.
Third-quarter Renvela®/Renagel® sales decreased 35.1% to €153 million due to generic competition in the U.S. (down 42.7% to €112 million). In October, Sanofi launched an authorized generic of Renvela®/Renagel® on the U.S. market. In Europe, third-quarter Renvela®/Renagel® sales were down 10.0% to €18 million also reflecting generic competition. Year-to-date Renvela®/Renagel® sales decreased 6.7% to €647 million.
Aprovel®/Avapro® sales were down 9.8% to €150 million reflecting lower sales to Sanofi's partner in Japan which offset the growth in China. Year-to-date Aprovel®/Avapro® sales increased 4.1% to €533 million.

*CS: constant structure
In the third quarter, Consumer Healthcare (CHC) sales increased 48.5% to €1,132 million reflecting the closing of the acquisition of Boehringer Ingelheim CHC business on January 1, 2017. At constant structure, Sanofi CHC sales increased 1.0% in the third quarter driven by Emerging Markets (up 6.7% to €411 million), offset by lower sales in Europe (down 1.2% to €321 million) and the U.S. (down 3.8% to €241 million). At constant structure, year-to-date CHC sales increased 2.0% to €3,636 million.
In Europe, third-quarter CHC sales were up 65.1% to €321 million.

*CS: constant structure
Third-quarter Vaccines sales were up 11.0% to €1,916 million and reflected the termination of the Sanofi Pasteur MSD joint venture in Europe from December 31, 2016. At constant structure, sales were up 7.2% mainly driven by the Polio/Pertussis/Hib franchise. In the U.S., sales were up 5.5% to €1,263 million. In Emerging Markets, sales grew 11.9% to €374 million. In Europe, sales were up 68.9% to €199 million and up 9.8% at constant structure. Year-to-date Vaccines sales grew 11.4% at constant structure to €3,716 million.
In the third quarter, Polio/Pertussis/Hib (PPH) vaccines sales increased 38.6% to €433 million. At constant structure, PPH sales grew 20.7% reflecting increased Pentaxim® sales in China, strong performance of Pentacel® in the U.S., and Hexaxim® in Europe and in Emerging markets. At constant structure, year-to-date Polio/Pertussis/Hib vaccines sales increased 29.5% to €1,334 million.
Third-quarter and year-to-date Menactra® sales increased 8.3% to €250 million and 10.0% to €521 million, respectively.
Influenza vaccines sales increased 1.8% at constant structure to €951 million in the third quarter (1.0% at CER) reflecting a competitive environment and the high level of penetration for Fluzone HD in the over 65 years old population. The quadrivalent influenza vaccine, VaxigripTetraTM, was launched in several countries outside the U.S. Year-to-date influenza vaccines sales were €1,087 million, up 3.2% at constant structure.
In August, the acquisition of Protein Sciences was completed. Through this acquisition, Sanofi Pasteur added Flublok® to its influenza vaccine portfolio. Flublok® is the only recombinant protein-based influenza vaccine approved by the U.S. FDA. Flublok® QIV has demonstrated in a recent clinical study in adults 50 years of age and older that it reduced the incidence of laboratory-confirmed influenza by 30% (relative to comparator).
Third-quarter Adult Booster vaccines sales were €143 million, up 42.3% and 26.5% at constant structure driven by Adacel® in the U.S and improved supply of Repevax® in Europe. At constant structure, year-to-date Adult Booster vaccines sales were stable at €337 million.
Third-quarter Travel and other endemic vaccines sales were €114 million up 53.2% and 34.1% at constant structure reflecting improved supply of Rabies and Hepatitis A vaccines. At constant structure, year-to-date Travel and other endemic vaccines sales were up 12.8% to €333 million.
Third-quarter and first nine months Dengvaxia® sales were €4 million and €22 million, respectively. This performance resulted from challenges regarding operational implementation of large public vaccination programs, in a difficult political and economic environment and a context of low disease incidence, in particular in Latin America.

In Europe, at constant structure, year-to-date sales decreased 0.3% to €7,058 million.
Sales in Japan increased 6.8% to €386 million in the third quarter. At constant structure, sales in Japan were down 12.0% impacted by generic Plavix® competition, lower sales of Aprovel® and Vaccines. In Japan, at constant structure, year-to-date sales decreased 6.7% to €1,387 million.
R&D update
| Consult Appendix 6 for full overview of Sanofi's R&D pipeline |
Regulatory update
Regulatory updates since the publication of second-quarter results on July 31, 2017 include the following:
- In September, the European Commission granted marketing authorization for Dupixent® (dupilumab), for use in adults with moderate-to-severe atopic dermatitis who are candidates for systemic therapy.
- In September, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) granted Breakthrough Therapy designation status to cemiplimab (REGN2810/SAR439684) for the treatment of adults with metastatic cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma (CSCC) and adults with locally advanced and unresectable CSCC. Cemiplimab is an investigational human, monoclonal antibody targeting PD-1, being jointly developed by Sanofi and Regeneron.
- In September, the FDA granted tentative approval for Admelog® (insulin lispro) 100 Units/mL, a rapid-acting human insulin analog. Sanofi filed a paragraph IV certification and Eli Lilly did not file a suit against Sanofi within the 45 days period under Hatch-Waxman Act. Sanofi is currently working closely with the FDA in order to receive full approval for Admelog in order to launch in the U.S.
At the end of October 2017, the R&D pipeline contained 44 pharmaceutical new molecular entities (excluding Life Cycle Management) and vaccine candidates in clinical development of which 13 are in Phase 3 or have been submitted to the regulatory authorities for approval.
Portfolio update
Phase 3:
- In October, Sanofi and Regeneron announced that the Phase 3 investigational study, LIBERTY ASTHMA VENTURE, evaluating dupilumab in adults and adolescents with severe, steroid-dependent asthma met its primary endpoint and key secondary endpoints. The study results showed that dupilumab significantly reduced steroid use, asthma attacks, and improved lung function.
- In September, Sanofi and Alnylam reported positive topline results from the APOLLO Phase 3 study of patisiran in hereditary ATTR (hATTR) amyloidosis patients with polyneuropathy. This study met its primary efficacy endpoint and all secondary endpoints.
- In September, Sanofi and Regeneron announced positive results of the Phase 3 CAFÉ study for Dupixent® in patients with moderate-to-severe atopic dermatitis who are inadequately controlled with or intolerant to the broad immunosuppressant drug cyclosporine A (CSA), or when this treatment is medically inadvisable. The results of this study were presented at the European Academy of Dermatology and Venerology (EADV) Congress.
- In September, Sanofi and Regeneron announced that the pivotal Phase 3 LIBERTY ASTHMA QUEST study of dupilumab in a broad population of patients with uncontrolled, persistent asthma met its two primary endpoints. Dupilumab, when added to standard therapies, reduced severe asthma attacks (exacerbations) and improved lung function.
- In September, Sanofi alliance partner Alnylam Pharmaceuticals announced that it had suspended dosing in all ongoing fitusiran studies pending further review of a safety event (a fatal thrombotic event occurred in a patient with hemophilia A without inhibitors enrolled in the Phase 2 Open Label Extension study of fitusiran) and development of a risk mitigation strategy. Based on overall consideration of fitusiran's benefit-risk profile, Alnylam aims to resume dosing as soon as it is feasible upon agreement with global regulatory authorities and with appropriate protocol amendments for enhanced patient safety monitoring in place.
- SAR341402, a rapid acting insulin, entered into phase 3.
- Cemiplimab, a PD1-inhibitor, entered in phase 3 for second-line treatment of cervical cancer.
Phase 2:
- In October, positive results from a Phase 2 study of dupilumab in adults with active moderate-to-severe eosinophilic esophagitis were presented at the World Congress of Gastroenterology (WCOG). The study showed that patients who received dupilumab weekly reported a significant improvement in the ability to swallow versus placebo.
- SAR407899, a Rho kinase inhibitor, entered into phase 2a in microvascular angina.
- Sanofi decided to stop the development of SAR156597 in Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis.
Phase 1:
- Sanofi does not intend to continue development with, or seek a license from, the Walter Reed Army Institute of Research for the Zika vaccine candidate following BARDA's decision (Biomedical Advanced Research and Development Authority) to de-scope its contract with Sanofi Pasteur to fund the manufacture and clinical development of an inactivated Zika vaccine.
2017 third-quarter and first-nine months financial results(9)
Business Net Income(9)
In the third quarter of 2017, Sanofi generated net sales of €9,053 million, an increase of 0.3% (up 4.7% at CER). First nine months net sales were €26,364 million, up 5.7% on a reported basis (up 6.2% at CER).
Third-quarter other revenues increased 27.3% (up 33.3% at CER) to €340 million reflecting VaxServe sales contribution of non-Sanofi products of €268 million (up 49.5% at CER). First nine months other revenues increased 48.9% (up 49.7% at CER) to €859 million reflecting VaxServe sales contribution of €636 million (up 77.5% at CER).
Third-quarter Gross Profit increased 0.3% to €6,540 million (up 5.0% at CER). At CER and CS*, third-quarter Gross Profit increased 0.2%. The gross margin ratio was stable at 72.2% versus the third quarter of 2016. The positive gross margin impact of Vaccines, China and Immunology was offset by the negative U.S. Diabetes net price evolution and currency variations. In the third quarter, the gross margin ratio of Pharmaceuticals was 72.8%, a decrease of 0.5 percentage points and the gross margin ratio of Vaccines was 70.3%, an increase of 2.6 percentage points. In the first nine months of 2017, the gross margin ratio improved by 0.3 percentage points to 71.6% versus the first nine months of 2016. Sanofi expects its gross margin ratio to be between 70% and 71% at CER in 2017.
Research and Development (R&D) expenses increased 9.8% to €1,341 million (up 12.9% at CER) in the third quarter. At CER and CS*, R&D expenses increased 10.7% reflecting mainly the increased spending on the development programs in immuno-oncology and sotagliflozin as well as a low base for comparison in the third quarter of 2016. First-nine months R&D expenses increased 7.3% to €4,008 million (up 7.3% at CER and up 5.3 % at CER and constant structure).
Third-quarter selling general and administrative expenses (SG&A) were up 1.8% to €2,314 million (up 5.9% at CER). At CER and CS*, SG&A expenses were down 2.1% mainly reflecting the increasing effect of cost savings. Despite immunology launch costs, marketing expenses were slightly down at CER and CS* as a result of a reduction of Diabetes spending in the U.S. and further cost savings efforts. In the third quarter, the ratio of SG&A to sales increased 0.4 percentage points to 25.6% compared to the third quarter of 2016. First-nine months SG&A expenses increased 6.9% to €7,360 million (up 7.1% at CER and down 0.4% at CER and CS*). In the first nine months of 2017, the ratio of SG&A to sales increased 0.3 percentage points to 27.9% compared to the same period of 2016.
Third-quarter other current operating income net of expenses was €16 million versus -€119 million for the same period of 2016. In the third quarter of 2017, this line included €68 million of income related to a capital gain and a litigation settlement. First nine months other current operating income net of expenses was €118 million versus -€49 million in the same period of 2016.
The share of profits from associates was €40 million in the third quarter versus €71 million for the same period of 2016. The share of profits from associates included Sanofi's share in Regeneron profit. In the third quarter of 2016, this line included the share of profit of Sanofi Pasteur MSD for an amount of €29 million. In the first nine months, the share of profits from associates was €121 million versus €124 million for the same period of 2016.
In the third quarter, non-controlling interests were -€30 million versus -€31 million in the third quarter of 2016. First nine months non-controlling interests were -€95 million versus -€81 million for the same period of 2016.

2017 Guidance
Sanofi confirms its full-year 2017 guidance for business EPS(9) to be broadly stable at CER, barring unforeseen major adverse events. The currency impact on 2017 business EPS is now estimated to be -1% to -2% if the average September 2017 exchange rates are applied to the fourth quarter of 2017.
Reconciliation of IFRS net income reported to business net income (see Appendix 4)
In the first nine months of 2017, the IFRS net income was €8,305 million reflecting the acquisition of BI's CHC business and full consolidation of Sanofi's European vaccine operations. The main items excluded from the business net income were:
- A net gain of €4,484 million resulting from the divestment of the Animal Health business.
- An amortization charge of €1,424 million related to fair value remeasurement on intangible assets of acquired companies (primarily Aventis: €285 million, Genzyme: €658 million and BI CHC business €188 million) and to acquired intangible assets (licenses/products: €105 million). An amortization charge of €434 million related to fair value remeasurement on intangible assets of acquired companies (primarily Aventis: €81 million, Genzyme: €200 million and BI CHC business €55 million) and to acquired intangible assets (licenses/products: €34 million) was recorded in the third quarter. These items have no cash impact on the Company.
- An impairment of intangible assets of €31million (of which €19 million recorded in the third quarter). This item has no cash impact on the Company.
- A charge of €174 million (of which €74 million in the third quarter) mainly reflecting an increase of Bayer contingent considerations linked to Lemtrada® (charge of €86 million of which €2 million in the third quarter 2017) and fair value adjustment of contingent consideration linked to Sanofi Pasteur MSD termination (€75 million in the third quarter).
- Expenses of €176 million arising from the impact of the acquisition of BI CHC business and Sanofi Pasteur MSD termination on inventories.
- Restructuring costs and similar items of €613 million (of which €249 million in the third quarter) mainly related to streamlining initiatives in addition to the rationalization of the industrial network.
(9) See Appendix 3 for 2017 third-quarter and first nine months consolidated income statement; see Appendix 8 for definitions of financial indicators, and Appendix 4 for reconciliation of IFRS net income reported to business net income.
- A €909 million tax effect arising from the items listed above, comprising €467 million of deferred taxes generated by amortization charged against intangible assets, €216 million associated with restructuring costs and similar items, €56 million associated with the impact of acquisition on inventories and €33 million associated with fair value remeasurement of contingent consideration.
- The third quarter tax effect was €281 million, including €134 million of deferred taxes on amortization charged against intangible assets and €90 million associated with restructuring costs and similar items (see Appendix 4).
- A tax of €111 million on dividends paid to shareholders of Sanofi.
On October 6, 2017, the French Constitutional Council (Conseil Constitutionnel) declared invalid the additional contribution of 3% due on dividends paid in cash since August 2012. The company will record the impact of this decision and any additional tax measures in the fourth quarter of 2017.
- An expense of €41 million net of tax (of which an income of €2 million in the third quarter) related to expenses arising from the impact of acquisitions on associates and joint ventures.
Capital Allocation
In the first nine months of 2017, net cash generated by operating activities was €4,156 million after capital expenditures of €1,009 million and an increase in working capital of €1,460 million. This net cash flow funded acquisitions and partnerships net of disposals (€924 million) and restructuring costs and similar items (€621 million).

Appendix 8: 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 third quarter and first half of 2017
| € million | Q3 2017 | 9M 2017 |
| Net sales | 9,053 | 26,364 |
| Effect of exchange rates | (403) | (133) |
| Company sales at constant exchange rates | 9,456 | 26,497 |
Business net income
