| ** Effective July 1, 2022, the Company began recording net product sales of Libtayo outside the United States. Excluded from the full year 2023 is approximately $6 million of first quarter 2023 net product sales recorded by Sanofi in connection with sales in certain markets (Sanofi recorded net product sales in such markets during a transition period). Similarly, excluded from the fourth quarter and full year 2022 is approximately $17 million and $34 million, respectively, of net product sales recorded by Sanofi (see Table 5). | ||||||||||||||||||
Net product sales of EYLEA in the U.S. decreased in the fourth quarter and full year 2023, compared to the same periods of 2022, primarily due to changing market dynamics, resulting in a lower net selling price and lower volumes. EYLEA volumes in the fourth quarter of 2023 were impacted by the August 2023 launch of EYLEA HD and subsequent transition of EYLEA patients to EYLEA HD.
Sanofi collaboration revenue increased in the fourth quarter and full year 2023, compared to the same periods of 2022, primarily due to the Company's share of profits from commercialization of antibodies, which were $886 million and $619 million in the fourth quarter of 2023 and 2022, respectively, and $3.137 billion and $2.082 billion for the full year 2023 and 2022, respectively. The change in the Company's share of profits from commercialization of antibodies was driven by higher profits associated with an increase in Dupixent sales. In addition, during 2023 (third quarter) the Company earned the final $50 million sales-based milestone from Sanofi based upon aggregate annual sales of antibodies outside the U.S., compared to earning two $50 million sales-based milestones in 2022 (including one in the fourth quarter of 2022).
The Company recorded collaboration revenue during 2023 and 2022 in connection with payments from Roche attributable to global gross profits from sales of Ronapreve. The decrease in other collaboration revenue was due to lower sales of Ronapreve.
Refer to Table 4 for a summary of collaboration revenue.
Other revenue for the fourth quarter and full year 2023 included the recognition of $16 million and $50 million, respectively, of revenue in connection with the Company's agreement with BARDA to fund certain costs for a next-generation COVID-19 monoclonal antibody therapy for the prevention of SARS-CoV-2 infection. The increase in other revenue in 2023 was also due to higher royalties earned in connection with sales of Novartis' Ilaris® (canakinumab).

| (a) | This press release uses non-GAAP R&D, non-GAAP SG&A, non-GAAP COGS, non-GAAP gross margin on net product sales, non-GAAP other income (expense), net, non-GAAP ETR, non-GAAP net income, non-GAAP net income per share, total revenues excluding Ronapreve, and free cash flow, which are financial measures that are not calculated in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP). These non-GAAP financial measures are computed by excluding certain non-cash and/or other items from the related GAAP financial measure. The Company also includes a non-GAAP adjustment for the estimated income tax effect of reconciling items. A reconciliation of the Company's GAAP to non-GAAP results is included in Table 3 of this press release. The Company makes such adjustments for items the Company does not view as useful in evaluating its operating performance. For example, adjustments may be made for items that fluctuate from period to period based on factors that are not within the Company's control (such as the Company's stock price on the dates share-based grants are issued or changes in the fair value of the Company's investments in equity securities) or items that are not associated with normal, recurring operations (such as acquisition and integration costs). Management uses these non-GAAP measures for planning, budgeting, forecasting, assessing historical performance, and making financial and operational decisions, and also provides forecasts to investors on this basis. With respect to free cash flows, the Company believes that this non-GAAP measure provides a further measure of the Company’s operations' ability to generate cash flows. Additionally, such non-GAAP measures provide investors with an enhanced understanding of the financial performance of the Company's core business operations. However, there are limitations in the use of these and other non-GAAP financial measures as they exclude certain expenses that are recurring in nature. Furthermore, the Company's non-GAAP financial measures may not be comparable with non-GAAP information provided by other companies. Any non-GAAP financial measure presented by the Company should be considered supplemental to, and not a substitute for, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP. |
| (b) | The casirivimab and imdevimab antibody cocktail for COVID-19 is known as REGEN-COV in the United States and Ronapreve in other countries. Roche records net product sales of Ronapreve outside the United States. |
| (c) | The Company's 2024 financial guidance does not assume the completion of any business development transactions not completed as of the date of this press release. |
| (d) | Gross margin on net product sales represents gross profit expressed as a percentage of total net product sales recorded by the Company. Gross profit is calculated as net product sales less cost of goods sold. |
| (e) | Corresponding reimbursements from collaborators and others for manufacturing of commercial supplies is recorded within revenues. |
| (f) | Represents Libtayo global net sales, inclusive of sales outside the United States which were recorded by Sanofi prior to July 1, 2022. |
