Analysis · SNY · Life Sciences
A standout quarter saw Sanofi deliver 17.8% constant-currency sales growth, fueled by Dupixent breaking through €5 billion in a single quarter and pharma launches up 48%. Business EPS jumped 33.3%, prompting management to raise full-year guidance — now expecting around 10% sales growth with EPS growing slightly faster. Ambitious 2030 targets were also set: Dupixent at ~€25 billion and pharma launches at ~€10 billion. However, the pipeline saw significant pruning: amlitelimab will not be submitted in atopic dermatitis, and the itepekimab and balinatunfib programs were discontinued, which tempers the long-term growth story. The strong commercial execution and upgraded guidance are clear positives, but the pipeline setbacks and the need for R&D transformation flagged by the new CEO add a note of caution.
