A lot has changed since our early days, but many things remain constant, including our core mission of bringing important new medicines to people with serious diseases. We have always taken a long-term view to our business, investing in science and technology that we believe will drive innovation today and for many years to come. This investment has yielded six FDA-approved medicines and a robust internally-discovered and developed product pipeline. In 2017, we received U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and European Commission approvals for two important new medicines, DUPIXENT® (dupilumab, blocking the IL-4 and IL-13 pathways) Injection for adults with moderate-to-severe atopic dermatitis and KEVZARA® (sarilumab, blocking the IL-6 pathway) Injection for adults with moderately to severely active rheumatoid arthritis, both of which were homegrown in our laboratories. We were one of only three companies to obtain multiple FDA approvals for novel medicines in 2017, and in its overview of 2017 approvals, the FDA highlighted DUPIXENT as one of two notable examples of first-in-class medicines with “potential for strong positive impact on the health of the American people.” We also continued to bring EYLEA® (aflibercept, blocking VEGF) Injection to more people in need, achieving nearly $6 billion in global sales in 2017, together with our ex-U.S. collaborator Bayer. In addition, the United States Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit ordered a new trial on the issues of written description and enablement and vacated the permanent injunction in the ongoing litigation regarding PRALUENT® (alirocumab, blocking PCSK9) Injection. With positive results from the large cardiovascular ODYSSEY OUTCOMES trial announced in early 2018, we hope that PRALUENT will be able to deliver on its promise of helping the many patients at high cardiovascular risk who are not adequately treated with statins. In 2018, we are anticipating two additional FDA approval decisions: dupilumab for the treatment of adults and adolescents (12 years+) with moderate-to-severe asthma, and cemiplimab, our PD-1 antibody, in advanced cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma, a difficult-to-treat skin cancer. Our clinical-stage pipeline includes 16 important new product candidates, including fully human antibodies and bispecific antibodies, in multiple different therapeutic areas, including cancer, diabetic eye diseases, pain, muscle atrophy and allergic disease. < MENU > 2 0 1 7 A N N U A L R E P O R T 4 GROWTH We are committed to investing in our R&D efforts while continuing to deliver strong financial results for our shareholders. In 2017, total revenues increased 21 percent from 2016 to $5.9 billion, driven by continued growth within our EYLEA franchise, as well as increased contributions of revenue from our collaborators. $5.9 BILLION in total revenue for 2017 (21% increase over 2016) With DUPIXENT’s approval in adults with uncontrolled moderate-to-severe atopic dermatitis and strong clinical data in multiple investigational settings (asthma, eosinophilic esophagitis and nasal polyps), we see potential to change the practice of medicine in allergic diseases. We are further evaluating dupilumab in pediatric patients, in patients who suffer from multiple allergic conditions at the same time, as well as in people with peanut allergy and grass allergy. With the accelerated development of REGN3500, our IL-33 antibody which may also have a potential impact on diseases like atopic dermatitis, asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, allergic diseases will be a focus of the company for many years to come. We also continue to actively develop and refine new technologies that can improve and expedite the drug development process. One major technology initiative, the Regeneron Genetics Center (RGC), is one of the leading genomics efforts in the world. To date, the RGC has sequenced exomes from 300,000 volunteers, enabled through collaborations with health record pioneers like the Geisinger Health System and UK Biobank. Early in 2018, we were proud to form a novel, pre-competitive consortium with other leading life sciences companies to fund the RGC’s sequencing of the 500,000 individuals in the UK Biobank population—one of the largest human sequencing efforts in the world—advancing Regeneron’s research and accelerating delivery of this unprecedented “big data” resource to the global research community. In 2017, we also created new alliances with several emerging companies that have synergistic technology capabilities, including Intellia Therapeutics, Inc. to pursue CRISPR-based therapeutics and Decibel Therapeutics, Inc. to pursue solutions for hearing loss. We are committed to investing in our R&D efforts while continuing to deliver strong financial results for our shareholders. In 2017, total revenues increased 21 percent from 2016 to $5.9 billion, driven by continued growth within our EYLEA franchise, as well as increased contributions of revenue from our collaborators. This revenue growth was realized without taking any price increases on our medicines. We earned $16.32 per diluted share from non-GAAP net income of $1.90 billion, a 44 percent increase over 2016, and generated free cash flow in excess of $1.0 billion.* Our balance sheet remains strong, and we ended the year with $2.9 billion in cash and marketable securities. *Non-GAAP net income, non-GAAP net income per share, and free cash flow are not measures calculated in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”). See “Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements and Non-GAAP Financial Measures” starting on page 27 for a definition of these measures and a reconciliation of each of these measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure. < MENU > 2 0 1 7 A N N U A L R E P O R T 5 The reduction of the U.S. corporate tax rate to 21 percent will provide a significant benefit to Regeneron, especially as currently most of our profits are subject to taxation in the United States. We do not expect the new tax law to have a material impact on our overall strategy, as we develop and manufacture products in the United States and Ireland based on business needs. Our near-term plan for the incremental cash flow that will be generated by the reduction in tax is to re-invest it into our research efforts and use it to support our growth. We have grown our team to over 6,500 people and have purposely created an innovative and collaborative culture where the highest-quality research thrives and where committed teams can discover, develop and commercialize new medicines. After the 2018 annual shareholder meeting, Charles Baker will be retiring from the Board of Directors, having served for nearly three decades. We thank Chuck for his early support and for offering his leadership, business expertise and wisdom to the company and its shareholders. Beyond our own Regeneron team, we also are keenly focused on fostering the next generation of scientific innovators. We are a leader in supporting STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Math) initiatives that reward and inspire promising young minds, including providing in excess of $100 million over ten years to support the Regeneron Science Talent Search, the nation’s oldest and most prestigious high school science competition. We take our commitment to being a responsible corporate citizen seriously, and, in order to increase transparency around all aspects of our environmental, social and governance practices, we have launched a new Responsibility Report this year. Leonard S. Schleifer, MD, PhD Founder, President and Chief Executive Officer We are confident that our proven ability to turn science into medicine, as well as our prudent financial management, keeps us well-positioned to deliver important advances for patients in need and deliver sustainable, long-term growth.

Diabetic eye diseases are under-diagnosed and under-treated, and will become an increasing issue given an aging population and overall increase in the prevalence of diabetes. We believe there is an important opportunity for EYLEA to help more patients with DME, as only a small percentage of patients currently receive treatment with an anti-VEGF therapy. We also recently announced positive topline Phase 3 results from a study of EYLEA in moderately severe to severe non-proliferative diabetic retinopathy without DME (the PANORAMA study), and expect to complete a regulatory submission for this indication by the end of 2018. Patients with diabetes are at risk for losing vision because of diseased blood vessels in the eye. Vascular leaks lead to retinal swelling and vision loss, or what is known as diabetic macular edema, an indication for which EYLEA is currently approved. GROW T H We recorded $5.9 billion in global net sales in 2017, a growth of 14 percent versus 2016.* Annual net product sales of EYLEA in the United States increased by 11 percent to $3.7 billion versus full-year 2016, representing solid growth for a multi-billion-dollar product in its sixth year on the market. In addition to efficacy and safety, another important consideration for physicians and patients is flexible dosing. With this in mind, we submitted a supplemental Biologic License Application (BLA) for every-3-month dosing (Q12) of EYLEA to the FDA, and have received a target action date of August 11, 2018. EYLEA is already approved for monthly as well as every-other-month dosing. *Bayer records net product sales of EYLEA outside the United States.

GROWTH During its first nine months on the market, DUPIXENT generated $256 million in sales, nearly all in the United States. We are We, alongside our collaborator Sanofi, took an industry-leading approach by having in-depth, advanced conversations about pricing and value with both payers and independent value assessment groups prior to launch. We received a positive response to the cost-effective price, which is significantly less than the list price of comparable biologics used in dermatology. We believe DUPIXENT could be a pipeline in a single product, given its potential to help patients with a number of Type 2 allergic diseases. Based on our positive Phase 3 program evaluating DUPIXENT in asthma, we and Sanofi submitted an application to the EMA and a supplemental BLA to the FDA for this indication and have been assigned a target action date of October 20, 2018 for the latter. Our pivotal asthma program consisted of three trials, which enrolled a broad population of uncontrolled asthma patients. DUPIXENT demonstrated significant reductions in both exacerbations and improvements in lung function. In the VENTURE study, DUPIXENT was the first biologic to demonstrate the ability to reduce the use of systemic steroids—completely eliminating their use in half of patients—while still providing significant improvements in lung function. In addition to ongoing studies in pediatric atopic dermatitis and pediatric asthma, we also have two fully enrolled Phase 3 studies of dupilumab in nasal polyps and presented positive Phase 2 data in eosinophilic esophagitis, an orphan disease that currently has no approved treatment options. We also announced a partnership with Aimmune Therapeutics, Inc. to study dupilumab for the treatment of people with peanut allergies, with studies expected to begin in 2018. In addition to these diseases, we believe there is important potential for dupilumab in related diseases such as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). We also continue to explore ways to enhance dupilumab in combination with other antibodies, such as our IL-33 antibody candidate. *Sanofi records global net product sales of DUPIXENT, PRALUENT and KEVZARA.

In March 2018, we and our collaborator Sanofi announced that PRALUENT significantly reduced cardiovascular events in the landmark ODYSSEY OUTCOMES trial. We also announced a new precision medicine approach focusing on patients at the highest risk for these events, as well as a novel pricing strategy designed to break gridlock in the current access environment. In the ongoing PCSK9 patent litigation, we were pleased that, in late 2017, the United States Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit ordered a new trial on the issues of written description and enablement and vacated the permanent injunction. KEVZARA® (SARILUMAB) INJECTION Our IL-6R antibody for rheumatoid arthritis, also developed and commercialized alongside Sanofi, was approved in the United States, European Union and Japan in 2017. Initial feedback from physicians has been positive, and we are working on securing reimbursement decisions. *Sanofi records global net product sales of DUPIXENT, PRALUENT and KEVZARA.

Based on positive data announced in December 2017, we submitted our first BLA in advanced cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma, for which we have been granted Breakthrough Therapy designation by the FDA, and are currently awaiting a target action date. The EMA has also accepted our application for review in this indication. We also have three pivotal programs ongoing for non-small cell lung cancer, basal cell carcinoma and cervical cancer, in addition to a host of programs across a range of solid tumor and blood cancers both as monotherapy and in combination with other therapies. < MENU > 2 0 1 7 A N N U A L R E P O R T 1 1 PIPELINE (as of April 2018) Regeneron has 16 product candidates in clinical development, nearly all of which were developed using our proprietary VelociGene ® and VelocImmune ® technologies.
