Sanofi sets out strategic roadmap for long-term growth
![](/46/pdcnewsitem/03/78/42/Sanofi.png)
Six major launches expected to generate aggregate peak sales of €12 billion to €14 billion.
Sanofi has set out its strategic roadmap today for the period 2015–2020 and its ambition to become the pre-eminent diversified global healthcare company. Through a process of refocusing and reshaping the organisation and investing in key launches and businesses, Sanofi expects to deliver a sales compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of between +3% and +4% during 2015–2020, with a target of mid-single digit growth in the second half of this period.
Sanofi today provided average expected sales trends for each Global Business Unit (GBU) which support the overall expected Group sales performance during 2015–2020. As a result of investments in launches, headwinds in diabetes and the phasing of cost savings, Sanofi does not expect to show any meaningful bottom line growth over 2016–2017. Beginning in 2018, however Sanofi expects to grow Business EPS faster than sales, reflecting its improved sales mix and the full capture of cost efficiencies.
"The pharmaceutical industry is undergoing a transformation unlike anything we've previously seen. Continued consolidation in the sector has created a more competitive environment over the last few years and, at the same time, science has never been more exciting. In this context, I am defining new priorities for Sanofi. The company will remain diversified, but with a portfolio refocused on areas where we can win, and innovation driven to improve lives of millions of people," said Olivier Brandicourt, CEO, Sanofi. "Along with a more streamlined and accountable organization, we are taking clear measures to ensure success as we launch a strong set of new medicines across several therapeutic areas. By building on the successes of these products, we are confident that Sanofi will be well-positioned for sustained, long-term growth. Sanofi is also seeking external opportunities to enhance its growth profile."
Sanofi's long-term strategy rests on four pillars: reshape the portfolio, deliver outstanding launches, sustain innovation in R&D and simplify the organization.
