NOTES TO THE CONDENSED HALF-YEAR CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AS OF JUNE 30, 2013

 

INTRODUCTION

 

Sanofi, together with its subsidiaries (collectively “Sanofi” or “the Group”), is a diversified global healthcare leader engaged in the research, development and marketing of therapeutic solutions focused on patient needs. Sanofi has fundamental strengths in the healthcare field, operating via seven growth platforms: Emerging Markets, Diabetes Solutions, Human Vaccines, Consumer Health Care, Animal Health, New Genzyme, and Other Innovative Products. Sanofi, the parent company of the Group, is a société anonyme (a form of limited liability company) incorporated under the laws of France. The registered office is at 54, rue La Boétie, 75008 Paris.

 

Sanofi is listed in Paris (Euronext: SAN) and New York (NYSE: SNY).

 

The condensed consolidated financial statements for the six months ended June 30, 2013 were reviewed by the Sanofi Board of Directors at the Board meeting on July 31, 2013.

 

A/ Basis of preparation of the half-year financial statements and accounting policies

 

 

A.1. INTERNATIONAL FINANCIAL REPORTING STANDARDS (IFRS)

 

The half-year consolidated financial statements have been prepared and presented in condensed format in accordance with IAS 34 (Interim Financial Reporting). The accompanying notes therefore relate to significant events and transactions of the period, and should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2012.

 

The accounting policies used in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements as of June 30, 2013 comply with international financial reporting standards (IFRS) as endorsed by the European Union and as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB). Except for the change described in Note A.1.2., the accounting policies applied as of June 30, 2013 are identical to those described in the notes to the published consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2012.

 

IFRSs endorsed by the European Union as of June 30, 2013 can be accessed under the heading “IAS/IFRS Standards and Interpretations” at:

 

http://ec.europa.eu/internal_market/accounting/ias/index_en.htm

 

A.1.1. New standards and amendments applicable in 2013

 

The new standards, amendments to standards, and interpretations issued by the IASB and mandatorily applicable with effect from the 2013 financial year are:

 

·    IAS 19 (Employee Benefits): The impacts of applying the amended IAS 19 are presented in Note A.1.2.

·    IFRS 13 (Fair Value Measurement), issued jointly by the IASB and the U.S. Federal Accounting Standards Board (FASB), proposes a common definition of fair value and application guidance. This new standard requires counterparty risk to be taken into account when measuring the fair value of financial instruments. The measurement of counterparty risk performed on first-time application of IFRS 13 indicated that this risk was not material to the Group. IFRS 13 also specifies the disclosures required for users of the financial statements to assess the techniques used to measure fair value. In accordance with IAS 34 the disclosures about the valuation techniques used to measure the fair value of financial instruments are provided in the table in Note A.4. and disclosures about the sensitivity of fair values of level 3 financial instruments are provided in Note B.11.

 

 

8 | 2013 Half-Year Financial Report  ·  Sanofi

 



 

In addition, the IASB issued five standards in May 2011 intended to improve the principles applied in the preparation of consolidated financial statements and the disclosure requirements for joint arrangements and for any type of entity in which an interest is held. All of these standards were endorsed by the European Union in December 2012, and the Group has early adopted them with effect from January 1, 2013.

 

·     IFRS 10 (Consolidated Financial Statements) supersedes the parts of IAS 27 (Consolidated and Separate Financial Statements) relating to consolidated financial statements, and SIC-12 (Consolidation – Special Purpose Entities). The new standard redefines the concept of control. In accordance with IFRS 10, the Group’s consolidated financial statements include all types of entity that the Group controls directly or indirectly, regardless of the level of its interest in the equity of the entity. The Sanofi Group controls an entity when it has power over that entity, is exposed to or has rights to variable returns from its involvement with that entity, and has the ability to use its power over that entity to affect the amount of those returns.

 

Entities consolidated by the Group are referred to as “subsidiaries” or, in the case of certain entities which the Group controls by means other than voting rights, as “consolidated structured entities”. IFRS 10 has had no material impact on the scope of consolidation of the Group.

 

·     IFRS 11 (Joint Arrangements) supersedes IAS 31 (Interests in Joint Ventures) and SIC-13 (Jointly Controlled Entities — Non-Monetary Contributions by Venturers). The new standard establishes principles that are applicable to the accounting for arrangements under which two or more parties exercise joint control. Depending on the rights and obligations of the parties, a joint arrangement is classified either as a joint operation (in which the Group recognizes its assets and liabilities in proportion to its rights to those assets and obligations for those liabilities) or as a joint venture (accounted for by the equity method). Sanofi exercises joint control if decisions relating to the relevant activities of the entity require the unanimous consent of Sanofi and of the other parties who share control. Under IFRS 11, proportionate consolidation is no longer a permitted option; the Group had not made use of this option. The Group has completed its assessment of IFRS 11, which has had no material impact on the scope of consolidation.

 

·      IFRS 12 (Disclosures of Interests in Other Entities) covers all the disclosures required when an entity holds interests in subsidiaries, associates or unconsolidated structured entities, regardless of the level of control or influence over the entity. IFRS 12 does not apply to interim financial reporting, unless significant events have occurred during the interim period. An assessment of the impact of IFRS 12 on the notes to the financial statements is ongoing. No significant event occurred during the first half of 2013 that would require any change to Sanofi’s financial information.

 

·      Two further standards – IAS 27 (Consolidated and Separate Financial Statements) and IAS 28 (Investments in Associates) have been amended, to bring them into line with the changes introduced by the publication of IFRS 10, IFRS 11 and IFRS 12.

 

 

Various other standards and amendments to standards are applicable from 2013 onwards. However, these pronouncements have no impact on the Group’s annual or half-year financial statements.

 

 

Sanofi · 2013 Half-Year Financial Report | 9

 



 

A.1.2. Change in accounting policy due to the amended IAS 19

 

As indicated in Note A.1.1., Sanofi is applying the amended IAS 19 (Employee Benefits) this year for the first time. The amended IAS 19 has been applied retrospectively, and the principal changes are as follows:

 

 

-    Interest income on defined-benefit pension plan assets are now measured by multiplying the fair value of the plan assets by the discount rate, instead of using assumptions about the expected rate of return on plan assets.

-   The “corridor” option, which allowed actuarial gains and losses to be deferred, is no longer permitted. However, this change has no impact because the Group already recognized all actuarial gains and losses directly in equity, in Other comprehensive income.

-    Past service cost arising during the period must now be recognized directly in profit or loss, because the amended standard now prohibits the deferral of unvested past service cost.

 

 

Also during 2013, Sanofi made a voluntary change in accounting policy by electing to report interest expense on the net defined-benefit liability as a financial expense; previously, this had been reported as a component of operating profit. The change is justified by the financial nature of this item, and brings the presentation into line with that used for the expense arising from the unwinding of discount on other long-term provisions. This reclassification has been applied retrospectively.

A.1.3. New standards, interpretations and amendments issued in the first half of 2013

 

In May 2013, the IASB issued IFRIC 21 (Levies), which is applicable retrospectively from January 1, 2014 but has yet to be endorsed by the European Union. This interpretation clarifies that the obligating event that results in recognition of a liability for government levies (i.e. any taxes, duties or other levies that do not fall within the scope of IAS 12) depends on the terms of the underlying legislation, regardless of the period used as the calculation basis for the levy.

 

An assessment of the impact of this interpretation is ongoing.

 

 

12 | 2013 Half-Year Financial Report  ·  Sanofi

 



 

A.2. USE OF ESTIMATES

The preparation of financial statements requires management to make reasonable estimates and assumptions based on information available at the date of the finalization of the financial statements. These estimates and assumptions may affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses in the financial statements, and disclosures of contingent assets and contingent liabilities as at the date of the review of the financial statements. Examples of estimates and assumptions include:

 

·

amounts deducted from sales for projected sales returns, chargeback incentives, rebates and price reductions;

·

impairment of property, plant and equipment, intangible assets, and investments in associates and joint ventures;

·

the valuation of goodwill, and the valuation and useful life of acquired intangible assets;

·

the amount of post-employment benefit obligations;

·

the amount of provisions for restructuring, litigation, tax risks and environmental risks;

·

the amount of deferred tax assets resulting from tax loss carry-forwards and deductible temporary differences;

·

the measurement of contingent consideration.

For half-year financial reporting purposes, and as allowed under IAS 34, Sanofi has determined income tax expense on the basis of an estimate of the effective tax rate for the full financial year. This rate is applied to Income before tax and associates and joint ventures. The estimated effective tax rate is based on the tax rates that will be applicable to projected pre-tax profits or losses arising in the various tax jurisdictions in which Sanofi operates.

 

Actual results could vary from these estimates.

A.3. SEASONAL TRENDS

Sanofi’s activities are not subject to significant seasonal fluctuations.

 

 

Sanofi · 2013 Half-Year Financial Report | 13

 

 

 



 

A.4. FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

 

Under IFRS 7 (Financial Instruments: Disclosures), fair value measurements must be classified using a hierarchy based on the inputs used to measure the fair value of the instrument. This hierarchy has three levels:

 

-  Level 1:

use of quoted prices in active markets for identical instruments (without modification or repackaging);

 

 

-  Level 2:

use of quoted prices in active markets for similar assets and liabilities, and valuation techniques in which all important inputs are derived from observable market data;

 

 

-  Level 3:

use of valuation techniques in which not all important inputs are derived from observable market data.

 

The table below sets forth the principles used to measure the fair value of the principal financial assets and liabilities recognized by the Group in its balance sheet:

B/ Significant information for the first half of 2013

 

B.1. IMPACT OF CHANGES IN SCOPE OF CONSOLIDATION

 

On March 20, 2013, Sanofi completed the acquisition of 100% of Genfar S.A., the leading manufacturer of pharmaceutical products in Colombia. Genfar S.A. is also the second-largest generics company in Colombia in terms of sales, generating annual revenue in the region of €100 million. The provisional purchase price allocation resulted in the recognition of goodwill amounting to €118 million. The provisional fair value of the other intangible assets identified in the acquisition is €59 million (see Note B.3.). The impacts of this acquisition on business operating income and net income in the first half of 2013 are not material.

The impact of the other acquisitions during the period is not material at Group level.

Sanofi made no divestments during the period.

 

B.2. PROPERTY, PLANT AND EQUIPMENT

Acquisitions of intangible assets other than goodwill (excluding software) in the first half of 2013 amounted to €142 million, including the acquisition by Chattem of the worldwide rights to the Rolaids® trademark for €64 million.

The €59 million effect of changes in scope of consolidation relates to the fair value attributed to products, trademarks and other rights in the Genfar acquisition, completed during the first half of 2013 (see Note B.1.).

The “Transfers” line mainly comprises acquired research and development that came into commercial use during the period and is being amortized from the date of marketing approval.

“Products, trademarks and other rights” mainly comprise:

 

-

marketed products, with a carrying amount of €13.8 billion as of June 30, 2013 (€15.2 billion as of December 31, 2012) with a weighted average amortization period of approximately 9 years;

-

trademarks, with a carrying amount of €0.4 billion as of June 30, 2013 (€0.4 billion as of December 31, 2012) with a weighted average amortization period of approximately 14 years.

Goodwill amounted to €38,144 million as of June 30, 2013, versus €38,073 million as of December 31, 2012. The movement during the first half of 2013 included an increase of €142 million as a result of acquisitions completed during the period (especially Genfar, see Note B.1.), and the negative effect of currency translation differences (€71 million).

 

B.4. IMPAIRMENT OF INTANGIBLE ASSETS

 

The results of impairment tests conducted in accordance with IAS 36 (Impairment of Assets) as of June 30, 2013 led to the recognition of a charge of €440 million.

 

This charge mainly comprises a net loss of €384 million arising on the intangible assets of BiPar due to the discontinuation of the internal investigational programs for iniparib. Given that no goodwill arose on the initial recognition of this business combination, which was completed in 2009, the contingent consideration liability relating to this acquisition has been reversed through profit or loss in accordance with the pre-revision version of IFRS 3. Consequently, the net impairment loss includes the €76 million gain arising from the reversal of the contingent consideration liability (see Note B.11.).

B.8.3. Reduction in share capital

 

On April 30, 2013, the Board of Directors approved the cancellation of 8,387,236 treasury shares (€602 million including additional paid-in capital), representing 0.63% of the share capital as of June 30, 2013.

 

These cancellations had no effect on consolidated shareholders’ equity.

 

B.8.4. Performance share plan

 

The Board of Directors meeting held on March 5, 2013 awarded a performance share plan consisting of 4,295,705 shares, of which 2,838,795 will vest after a four-year service period and 1,456,910 will vest after a three-year service period but will be non-transferable for a further two-year lock-up period.

 

The plan was measured as of the date of grant. The fair value of each share awarded is equal to the quoted market price of the share as of that date (€74.76), adjusted for dividends expected during the vesting period.

 

The fair value of the performance share plan is €256 million. This amount is being recognized as an expense over the vesting period, with the matching entry recorded directly in equity. The expense recognized for this plan during the first half of 2013 was €22 million.

 

The total expense recognized in the first half of 2013 for all restricted share plans was €73 million, compared with €59 million in the first half of 2012. A total of 12,647,809 shares were in process of vesting as of June 30, 2013 (4,267,265 under the 2013 plan, 4,529,740 under the 2012 plan, 1,778,720 under the 2011 plan, and 2,072,084 under the 2010 plan).

 

B.8.5. Stock option plan

 

On March 5, 2013, the Board of Directors granted 788,725 stock subscription options at an exercise price of €72.19. The vesting period is four years, and the plan expires on March 5, 2023.

 

The following assumptions were used in determining the fair value of this plan:

 

·             dividend yield: 4.45%;

 

·             plan maturity: 7 years;

 

·             volatility of Sanofi shares, computed on a historical basis: 27.21%;

 

·             interest rate: 1.395%.

 

On this basis, the fair value of one option is €12.02, and the fair value of the 2013 plan is €9 million. This amount is being recognized as an expense over the vesting period, with the matching entry recorded directly in equity. The expense recognized for this plan during the first half of 2013 was €0.8 million.

 

The total expense recognized for stock option plans in the first half of 2013 was €12 million, compared with €14 million in the first half of 2012.

Principal financing and debt reduction transactions during the period

 

During the first half of 2013, the Group carried out a $1.5 billion bond issue maturing April 2018 and bearing interest at an annual rate of 1.25%.

 

Six borrowings were repaid on maturity:

 

·                 a $1 billion bond issue carried out in March 2011, which matured on March 28, 2013;

 

·                 a €1.5 billion bond issue carried out in May 2009, which matured on May 17, 2013;

 

·                 a ¥15 billion bond issue carried out in June 2008, which matured on June 5, 2013;

 

·                 a €150 million bank loan from the European Investment Bank, which matured on February 13, 2013;

 

·                 two “Schuldschein” loans (€108 million fixed rate, €162 million floating rate), which matured on May 13, 2013.

 

In addition, Sanofi had the following arrangements in place as of June 30, 2013 to manage its liquidity in connection with current operations:

 

·                 a €3 billion syndicated credit facility expiring December 25, 2013, available for drawdown in euros, extended until December 24, 2014 by the exercise of an extension option in July 2013;

 

·                 a €7 billion syndicated credit facility (€0.250 billion expiring July 6, 2015, €6.750 billion expiring July 3, 2017), available for drawdown in euros or U.S. dollars.

 

Sanofi also has in place two commercial paper programs, one in France (€6 billion) and the other in the United States ($10 billion). Only the U.S. program was drawn down as of June 30, 2013, in an amount of $2.1 billion.

The financing arrangements in place as of June 30, 2013 at the level of the Sanofi parent company (which centrally manages the bulk of the Group’s financing needs) are not subject to covenants regarding financial ratios, and contain no clauses linking credit spreads or fees to Sanofi’s credit rating.

As of June 30, 2013, none of these instruments had an expiry date later than October 2013 (except for a forward purchase position of GBP 31 million maturing between 2013 and 2015).

These positions primarily hedge material foreign-currency cash flows arising after the balance sheet date in relation to transactions carried out during the six months to June 30, 2013 and recognized in the consolidated balance sheet as of that date. Gains and losses on these hedging instruments (forward contracts) are calculated and recognized in parallel with the recognition of gains and losses on the hedged items. Consequently, the commercial foreign exchange gain or loss to be recognized on these items (hedges and hedged transactions as of June 30, 2013) in the second half of 2013 will not be material.

B.10.2. Currency and interest rate derivatives used to manage financial risk exposures

Cash pooling arrangements for foreign subsidiaries outside the euro zone, and some of the Group’s financing activities, expose certain entities (especially the Sanofi parent company) to financial foreign exchange risk. This is the risk of changes in the value of loans and borrowings denominated in a currency other than the functional currency of the lender or borrower.

This foreign exchange risk is hedged by firm financial instruments (currency swaps or forward contracts) contracted with banks.

(3)            Amounts reported in the income statement line item Fair value remeasurement of contingent consideration liabilities.

 

(4)            Mainly comprises the reversal of the BiPar contingent consideration: €76 million (see Note B.4.).

 

(5)            As of January 1, 2013, comprised €1,350 million due after more than one year and €100 million due within less than one year.

 

Liabilities related to business combinations and to non-controlling interests as of June 30, 2013 mainly comprised the Bayer contingent consideration liability arising from the acquisition of Genzyme in 2011 (€660 million) and contingent consideration associated with the acquisition of TargeGen in 2010 (€190 million).

 

Bayer is entitled to receive the following potential payments:

 

-

a percentage of sales of alemtuzumab up to a maximum of $1,250 million or over a maximum period of ten years, whichever is achieved first;

 

 

-

milestone payments on 2013 annual sales of Campath®, Fludara® and Leukine®, up to a maximum of $50 million;

 

 

-

milestone payments based on specified levels of worldwide sales of alemtuzumab beginning in 2021, unless Genzyme exercises its right to buy out these milestone payments by making a one-time payment not exceeding $900 million.

 

The fair value of the Bayer liability is determined on the basis of these contractual terms, applied to sales forecasts that are weighted for probability and discounted.

 

If the product were to obtain marketing approval in all of the geographical regions, the fair value of the Bayer liability would increase by approximately 18%.

 

If the discount rate were to fall by 1 point, the fair value of the Bayer liability would increase by approximately 3%.

 

The former shareholders of TargeGen will be entitled to receive additional consideration if specified development milestones are attained, up to and including product approval.

 

The fair value of the TargeGen liability is determined on the basis of these contractual terms, weighted for the probability that the development milestones will be attained.

 

If the most advanced indication were to be approved, the TargeGen liability would increase by approximately 8%.

For the first half of 2013, the “provisions utilized” line includes in particular €317 million paid into pension funds in the United States.

 

(3)            Amounts charged and reversals during the first half of 2013 are largely due to reassessments of tax risks and the resolution of various procedures underway with the tax authorities of several countries.

 

(4)            Includes in particular transfers between current and non-current.

 

Provisions for pensions and other employee benefits

 

With effect from January 1, 2013, the Group has applied the amended IAS 19, the impacts of which are presented in Note A.1.2.

 

For disclosures about the sensitivity of pension and other employee benefit obligations, and the assumptions used as of December 31, 2012, see Note D.19.1. to the consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2012.

 

The principal assumptions used (in particular, discount rates and the market value of plan assets) for the euro zone, the United States and the United Kingdom were reviewed as of June 30, 2013 to take into account changes during the first half of 2013.

 

Actuarial gains and losses on pensions and other post-employment benefits recognized with a matching entry in equity are as follows (amounts reported before tax):

B.14. LEGAL AND ARBITRAL PROCEEDINGS

 

Sanofi and its affiliates are involved in litigation, arbitration and other legal proceedings. These proceedings typically are related to product liability claims, intellectual property rights (particularly claims against generic companies seeking to limit the patent protection of Sanofi products), competition law and trade practices, commercial claims, employment and wrongful discharge claims, tax assessment claims, waste disposal and pollution claims, and claims under warranties or indemnification arrangements relating to business divestitures.

 

The matters discussed below constitute the most significant developments since publication of the disclosures concerning legal proceedings in the Company’s financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2012.

 

 

a) Products

 

· Plavix® Product litigation

 

As of July 2013, there are approximately 644 actions pending with a total of around 4,000 plaintiffs in connection with the use of Plavix®.

 

b) Patents

 

· Plavix® Patent Litigation in Australia

 

On April 8, 2013, the Australian Department of Health and Ageing filed an application before the First Instance Federal Court of Australia seeking payment of damages from Sanofi related to the Apotex preliminary injunction amounting to AU$156 million.

 

c) Other litigation and arbitration

 

· Zimulti®/Acomplia® (rimonabant) class action

 

In March 2013, the Court granted Plaintiffs motion for class certification, certifying only a class of purchasers of Sanofi ADRs between February 24, 2006 and June 13, 2007. The Court rejected Plaintiffs’ request for a class of purchasers of Sanofi ordinary shares. The proceeding is in the discovery stage.

 

 · Merial Heartgard® Advertisement Claim

 

In April 2013, the Court denied Plaintiffs motion for class certification. In May 2013, Plaintiffs filed a petition requesting permission to appeal. On May 30, 2013 the District Court issued an order staying all pending motions, including Merial’s motion for summary judgment until the appeal has been decided.

 

 · Merial Frontline® Advertisement Claim

 

On March 19, 2013, the Court granted Defendants’ motion for summary judgment and dismissed the cases. In April 2013, Plaintiffs filed a notice of appeal.

Sanofi’s pharmaceuticals portfolio consists of flagship products, plus a broad range of prescription medicines, generic medicines, and consumer health products. This segment also includes all associates and joint ventures whose activities are related to pharmaceuticals, in particular the entities majority owned by BMS.

 

The Vaccines segment is wholly dedicated to vaccines, including research, development, production and marketing. This segment includes the Sanofi Pasteur MSD joint venture.

 

 

Sanofi · 2013 Half-year financial report | 29

 

 

 


 


 

The Animal Health segment comprises the research, development, production and marketing activities of Merial, which offers a complete range of medicines and vaccines for a wide variety of animal species.

 

The “Other” segment consists of all activities that are not reportable segments as defined in IFRS 8.

 

Inter-segment transactions are not material.

 

B.18.1. Segment results

 

Sanofi reports segment results on the basis of “Business operating income”. This indicator, which complies with IFRS 8, is used internally to measure operational performance and allocate resources.

 

Business operating income is derived from Operating income, adjusted as follows:

 

·                  the amounts reported in the line items Restructuring costs, Fair value remeasurement of contingent consideration liabilities and Other gains and losses, and litigation are eliminated;

 

·                  amortization and impairment losses charged against intangible assets (other than software) are eliminated;

 

·                  the share of net profits/losses from associates and joint ventures is added;

 

·                  the share attributable to non-controlling interests is deducted;

 

·                  other acquisition-related effects (primarily the workdown of acquired inventories remeasured at fair value at the acquisition date, and the impact of acquisitions on investments in associates and joint ventures) are eliminated;

 

·                  restructuring costs relating to associates and joint ventures are eliminated.
