- Sanofi's CEO, Paul Hudson, commented, "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."
- "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," Hudson added.
