Guidance
Paul Hudson, Chief Executive Officer: “We achieved double-digit sales growth in 2024 while pursuing the transformation of the company. Innovation was a key driver of our growth as launches already contributed 11 percent of sales, with Beyfortus becoming a blockbuster in its first full year of sales. We exceeded our business EPS guidance. In 2024, we announced an intention to sell a controlling stake in Opella consumer health, which will make Sanofi a focused, science-driven biopharma company. We increased R&D investments and achieved significant progress with our pipeline in 2024, including positive phase 3 study results for new medicines such as rilzabrutinib in rare diseases and tolebrutinib in multiple sclerosis. As we enter 2025, we expect continued, solid growth in sales and a strong rebound in earnings. We are also confident in the mid to long-term growth prospects of Sanofi, supported by ongoing launches, Dupixent (currently expected to reach sales of around €22 billion in 2030 , in line with the current ambition), and expected future launches from our pipeline.”
