a. Sanofi
The Company is party to a global, strategic collaboration with Sanofi to research, develop, and commercialize fully human monoclonal antibodies, which currently consists of Dupixent® (dupilumab), Kevzara® (sarilumab), and itepekimab.
Sanofi is generally responsible for funding 80% to 100% of agreed-upon development costs. The Company is obligated to reimburse Sanofi for 30% to 50% of worldwide development expenses that were funded by Sanofi (i.e., "development balance") based on the Company's share of collaboration profits; however, the Company is only required to apply 20% of its share of profits from the collaboration each calendar quarter to reimburse Sanofi for these development expenses. As of September 30, 2024, the Company's contingent reimbursement obligation to Sanofi under the collaboration was approximately $1.810 billion.
Sanofi leads commercialization activities for products under the collaboration, subject to the Company's right to co-commercialize such products. During the three months ended September 30, 2023, the Company earned the final $50.0 million sales-based milestone from Sanofi upon aggregate annual sales of antibodies outside the United States exceeding $3.0 billion on a rolling twelve-month basis.
