B.20. SEGMENT INFORMATION
Sanofi reports two operating segments: Biopharma and Opella (formerly Consumer Healthcare – CHC).
The Biopharma operating segment comprises commercial operations and research, development and production activities relating to the Specialty Care, General Medicines and Vaccines franchises, for all geographical territories. The segment’s results include the costs of global support functions that are not within the managerial responsibility of the Opella GBU.
The Opella operating segment comprises commercial operations relating to consumer healthcare products, and research, development and production activities and global support functions (as listed above) dedicated to the segment, for all geographical territories. The Opella GBU segment’s results reflect all incurred costs of global support functions attributable to its business.
The “Other” category comprises reconciling items, primarily but not limited to (i) gains and losses on centralized foreign exchange risk hedging transactions that cannot be allocated to the operating segments and (ii) gains and losses on retained commitments in respect of previously divested operations.

B.20.1.2. Business operating income
Sanofi reports segment results on the basis of “Business operating income”, a non-IFRS financial measure used internally by the chief operating decision maker to measure the performance of each operating segment and to allocate resources.
“Business operating income” is derived from Operating income, adjusted as follows:
the amounts reported in the line items Restructuring costs and similar items, Fair value remeasurement of contingent consideration relating to business combinations (IFRS 3) or divestments and Other gains and losses, and litigation are eliminated;
expenses arising from the remeasurement of inventories following a business combination (IFRS 3) are eliminated;
amortization and impairment losses charged against intangible assets (other than software and other rights of an industrial or operational nature) are eliminated;
the share of profits/losses from investments accounted for using the equity method is added for joint ventures and associates with which Sanofi has entered into a strategic partnership agreement; and
net income attributable to non-controlling interests is deducted.
Segment results are shown in the table below:
