Sanofi Chief Executive Officer, Christopher A. Viehbacher commented: 

"The Group's financial performance in the first-quarter continued the growth trajectory that emerged at the 

end of 2013. Our Business EPS(1) grew 5.8% at CER which is in line with our full-year financial 

guidance. Importantly, our pipeline showed steady progress. We presented study results for alirocumab, 

dupilumab, initiated the LixiLan Phase III program and announced plans to resubmit the sBLA for 

LemtradaTM. In addition, the first dengue vaccine Phase III study met its primary endpoint. During the next 

three quarters of 2014, we expect important development milestones for multiple high potential pipeline 

projects including ToujeoTM (U300), the Dengue vaccine, alirocumab, Cerdelga®

 and dupilumab."
