** Rest of world (ROW). Effective July 1, 2022, the Company began recording net product sales of Libtayo outside the United States. Excluded from this line item is approximately $17 million and $34 million of net product sales recorded by Sanofi in the fourth quarter and second half of 2022, respectively, in connection with sales in certain markets (Sanofi will record net product sales in such markets during a transition period until inventory on hand as of July 1, 2022 is sold through to the end customers).
*** Effective April 1, 2021, Kiniksa records net product sales of ARCALYST in the United States. Previously, the Company recorded net product sales of ARCALYST in the United States.

Net product sales of EYLEA in the U.S. in the fourth quarter of 2022 were negatively impacted by (i) a short-term shift to off-label use of compounded bevacizumab, (ii) a temporary closing in the fourth quarter of 2022 of a not-for-profit fund that provides patient co-pay assistance, and (iii) an increase in sales-related deductions. Volumes of U.S. EYLEA in the fourth quarter of 2022 increased compared to the fourth quarter of 2021.

There were no sales of REGEN-COV in the U.S. during 2022 as the Company had completed its final deliveries of drug product under its agreements with the U.S. government as of December 31, 2021.

Sanofi collaboration revenue increased 61% to $836 million in the fourth quarter of 2022, compared to the fourth quarter of 2021, and increased 50% to $2.856 billion for the full year 2022, compared to the full year 2021. This increase was primarily due to the Company's share of profits from commercialization of antibodies, which were $619 million and $388 million in the fourth quarter of 2022 and 2021, respectively, and $2.082 billion and $1.363 billion for full year 2022 and 2021, respectively. The change in the Company's share of profits from commercialization of antibodies was driven by profits associated with higher Dupixent sales. In addition, during 2022 the Company earned two $50 million sales-based milestones (including one in the fourth quarter of 2022) from Sanofi based upon sales of antibodies outside the U.S. on a rolling twelve-month basis, compared to earning one $50 million sales-based milestone in 2021 (in the third quarter of 2021).

Sanofi and Bayer collaboration revenue (and specifically, the share of profits the Company earned in connection with commercialization of products) was adversely impacted in 2022 by the U.S. dollar strengthening against foreign currencies, including the Japanese yen and the euro.

The Company recorded Roche collaboration revenue during full year 2022 and 2021 in connection with payments from Roche attributable to global gross profits from sales of Ronapreve. Roche collaboration revenue increased in the fourth quarter of 2022, compared to the fourth quarter of 2021, as no Roche collaboration revenue was recorded during the fourth quarter of 2021 since the Company owed a payment to Roche (which was recorded to Cost of goods sold) in connection with global gross profits of REGEN-COV and Ronapreve.

Refer to Table 4 for a summary of collaboration revenue.

** Certain reclassifications have been made to prior period amounts to conform with the current period's presentation. See note (f) below for additional information.

• GAAP and non-GAAP R&D expenses increased in the fourth quarter and full year of 2022, compared to the same periods in the prior year, driven by the impact of the 2022 amendments to the Sanofi collaboration agreements, additional costs incurred in connection with the Company's late-stage pipeline, an increase in clinical manufacturing activities, and higher headcount and headcount-related costs. The increase for the full year of 2022, compared to full year 2021, was partly offset by lower costs incurred in connection with development activities for REGEN-COV and fasinumab.
• Acquired IPR&D for full year 2022 included a $195 million charge related to the Company's acquisition of Checkmate Pharmaceuticals, Inc., a $30 million up-front payment in connection with the Company's collaboration agreement with CytomX (fourth quarter 2022), and a $20 million opt-in payment in connection with a product candidate under the Company's collaboration agreement with Adicet Bio, Inc. Acquired IPR&D for the fourth quarter and full year of 2021 included $34 million in aggregate up-front payments in connection with the Company's collaboration agreement with Nykode Therapeutics.
• GAAP and non-GAAP SG&A expenses increased in the fourth quarter and full year of 2022, compared to the same periods in the prior year, primarily due to an increase in commercialization-related expenses for Libtayo (as effective July 1, 2022, the Company became solely responsible for the commercialization of Libtayo worldwide), higher contributions to an independent not-for-profit patient assistance organization, and higher headcount and headcount-related costs, partly offset by educational campaigns related to COVID-19 that did not recur during 2022.
• GAAP and non-GAAP COGS decreased in the fourth quarter and full year of 2022, compared to the same periods in the prior year, primarily due to the Company recognizing U.S. REGEN-COV net product sales (and corresponding cost of goods sold) during 2021 and a 2021 payment of $260 million owed by the Company in connection with global gross profits under its Roche collaboration agreement; such transactions did not recur in 2022. GAAP and non-GAAP COGS also decreased in 2022 since effective July 1, 2022, following the acquisition of Libtayo worldwide rights, the Company is no longer obligated to pay Sanofi for their share of U.S. Libtayo gross profits.
  
  GAAP COGS also decreased in the fourth quarter and full year of 2022 due to lower inventory write-offs and reserves. Non-GAAP COGS excluded certain charges related to REGEN-COV (primarily inventory write-offs and reserves) of $134 million and $197 million in the fourth quarter and full year of 2022, respectively, and $232 million in each of the fourth quarter and full year of 2021.
• Other operating (income) expense, net, for full year 2022 included the recognition of $44 million (an increase to other operating income) as a result of discontinuing further clinical development of fasinumab related to the Company's Teva and Mitsubishi Tanabe Pharma collaborative arrangements.
  

Other Financial Information

GAAP other income (expense) included the recognition of net unrealized gains on equity securities of $81 million in the fourth quarter of 2022, compared to $138 million of net unrealized losses in the fourth quarter of 2021. GAAP other income (expense) included the recognition of net unrealized losses on equity securities of $40 million for full year 2022, compared to net unrealized gains of $386 million for full year 2021.

In the fourth quarter and full year 2022, the Company's GAAP effective tax rate (ETR) was 9.6% and 10.7%, respectively, compared to 11.0% and 13.4% in the fourth quarter and full year 2021, respectively. The GAAP ETR in the fourth quarter and full year 2022, compared to the same periods in the prior year, included a higher benefit from the proportion of income earned in foreign jurisdictions with tax rates lower than the U.S. federal statutory rate (including the impact from REGEN-COV income earned in the U.S. during 2021). In the fourth quarter and full year 2022, the non-GAAP ETR was 11.3% and 12.1%, respectively, compared to 12.6% and 13.5% in the fourth quarter and full year 2021, respectively.

GAAP net income per diluted share was $10.50 in the fourth quarter of 2022, compared to $19.69 in the fourth quarter of 2021. GAAP net income per diluted share was $38.22 for the full year 2022, compared to $71.97 for full year 2021. Non-GAAP net income per diluted share was $12.56 in the fourth quarter of 2022, compared to $23.42 in the fourth quarter of 2021. Non-GAAP net income per diluted share was $44.98 for the full year 2022, compared to $74.35 for the full year 2021. A reconciliation of the Company's GAAP to non-GAAP results is included in Table 3 of this press release.

During the full year 2022, the Company repurchased shares of common stock under its share repurchase program, and recorded the cost of the shares, or $2.100 billion, as Treasury Stock. As of December 31, 2022, $745 million remained available for share repurchases under the program. In January 2023, the Company's board of directors authorized a new share repurchase program to repurchase up to an additional $3.0 billion of the Company's common stock. Repurchases may be made from time to time at management's discretion through a variety of methods. The program has no time limit and can be discontinued at any time.

(a)	This press release uses non-GAAP R&D, non-GAAP SG&A, non-GAAP COGS, non-GAAP gross margin on net product sales, non-GAAP other income (expense), net, non-GAAP ETR, non-GAAP net income, non-GAAP net income per share, total revenues excluding REGEN-COV and Ronapreve, and free cash flow, which are financial measures that are not calculated in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP). These non-GAAP financial measures are computed by excluding certain non-cash and/or other items from the related GAAP financial measure. The Company also includes a non-GAAP adjustment for the estimated income tax effect of reconciling items. A reconciliation of the Company's GAAP to non-GAAP results is included in Table 3 of this press release. The Company makes such adjustments for items the Company does not view as useful in evaluating its operating performance. For example, adjustments may be made for items that fluctuate from period to period based on factors that are not within the Company's control (such as the Company's stock price on the dates share-based grants are issued or changes in the fair value of the Company's investments in equity securities) or items that are not associated with normal, recurring operations (such as restructuring- or integration-related expenses). Management uses these non-GAAP measures for planning, budgeting, forecasting, assessing historical performance, and making financial and operational decisions, and also provides forecasts to investors on this basis. With respect to free cash flows, the Company believes that this non-GAAP measure provides a further measure of the Company’s operations' ability to generate cash flows. Additionally, such non-GAAP measures provide investors with an enhanced understanding of the financial performance of the Company's core business operations. However, there are limitations in the use of these and other non-GAAP financial measures as they exclude certain expenses that are recurring in nature.
