Sanofi Stock Report: 14.4% Income Growth Amid Restructuring

Sanofi stock gained momentum as the world’s third-largest pharmaceutical company announced its stunning performance in the third quarter of 2022 through revenue from sales area and earnings that were around a given level of change. The company was able to achieve these results due to the fast-growing sales of its vaccines in the initial months and the constant functioning of its product lines.

The French pharmaceutical company posted a 14.4% rise in business operating income to €4.6 billion, which was more than the €4 billion expected by analysts. Vaccine sales were particularly strong, increasing to €3.8 billion, an increase of 25.5%, which went far beyond the previously stated €3.2 billion. Initial flu vaccine distribution and the new RSV treatment for infants, Beyfortus, were the main drivers of the impressive quarterly result.

Sanofi Boosts Dupixent Sales by 23.8%

The company registered a 23.8% increase in the sale of its leading treatment drug, Dupixent, which is anti-inflammatory. Dupixent earned €3.48 billion, slightly higher than analyst expectations and offering even more benefits as it has very recently been given the green light for a new indication in lung disease.

Sanofi is close to the sale of the majority part of its consumer health business Opella, in a sensational strategic move. The contender of the shares is US based investor Clayton Dubilier & Rice. As the cost of the shares is about €16 billion, this sale will allow the company to invest in advanced clinical research for drugs, supporting the CEO’s plan to specialize in the so-called next-gen drugs.

Market reactions have been positive. JP Morgan experts are anticipating a 3-5% increase in Sanofi shares. Sanofi is expected to record a small gain in 2024 with the expansion of its core business. In response to this, there will be the most substantial growth in 2025 as a result of its cutting-edge portfolio.

Sanofi Stock Chart Analysis

SNU/USD 15-Minute Chart

During Sanofi’s recent stock performance review, it’s pretty obvious that these shares have been under pressure over the past few years. The stock reached the highest point of $55.04 before plunging downward, which became even more pronounced in the later sessions. The price currently lies at $52.07, which shows a 0.21% deflection from the previous value on the day. This was the biggest drop in the stock’s price that started a little before October 18, with the stock being the highest at $55.

The biggest change was seen on October 24, when the stock reached its lowest level of only $50.01, before making a little progress. The price has indeed gone up a bit, but we are still watching it fight to get higher. This deep selloff may be due to wider market concerns or the investors’ response to Sanofi’s cost-cutting plans, including the decision to spin off its consumer health division.

As the shares of Sanofi fluctuate just above the $50 mark, it is important to keep in mind that this psychological level is a major one. If Sanofi’s shares head further south beyond this psychological level, it may encourage further selling. However, for the rest of us preferring to see the bigger picture, this could also be a time to buy at a lower price, especially since Sanofi seems to be concentrating more on vaccines and speciality drugs.

In general, we are at a stage of inconsistency in Sanofi stock, as there has been a test of the critical support levels. This could either lead to additional losses or potential recovery, depending on the sentiment of the market.
