Upgrade to Buy (BUY, TP €75 [€70], 24 pgs)

Sanofi’s shares have suffered following the Bioverativ deal and EPS d’grades post full year results. We show 2019 mid-single digit EPS growth is increasingly likely with non-EM diabetes just 9% of 2019 sales. Growth driven by Dupixent, Praluent & Bioverativ, aided by an easy 2018 comp should drive a re-rating. We forecast ~20% 12mth TSR, with 5% EPS growth, 4.5% dividend yield and a 10% re-rating (still a 10% sector discount despite 5% CAGR EPS growth 2018-23). BUY.
