Execution of a share buyback agreement for up to €2 billion

Paris, February 7, 2025. On January 30, 2025, Sanofi announced its intention to execute a share buyback program in 2025 of €5 billion, preferably through block trades and in the open market with the purpose of cancellation.

A first tranche of this program was announced on February 3, 2025, and executed on February 5, 2025, for an amount of €3 billion, through an off-market block trade with the long-standing shareholder L’Oréal.

On February 6, 2025, Sanofi has entered into a mandate with an investment service provider for the second tranche of this program. Under the terms of this mandate, Sanofi will repurchase its own shares for a total consideration of up to €2 billion, between February 7, 2025 and December 31, 2025 at the latest¹.
