Ipsen’s ambition is to become a leader in specialty healthcare solutions for targeted debilitating diseases. Its development strategy is supported by 3 franchises: neurology, endocrinology and urology-oncology. Ipsen’s commitment to oncology is exemplified through its growing portfolio of key therapies improving the care of patients suffering from prostate cancer, bladder cancer or neuroendocrine tumors. Ipsen also has a significant presence in primary care. Moreover, the Group has an active policy of partnerships. Ipsen’s R&D is focused on its innovative and differentiated technological platforms, peptides and toxins, located in the heart of the leading biotechnological and life sciences hubs (Les Ulis, France; Slough/Oxford, UK; Cambridge, US).
2015 has been Ipsen´s best year since becoming a publicly traded company, marked by their take-off in the US. In 2016 the US will overtake France to become their number one affiliate. Besides an excellent 2015 operating performance, sales grew by more than 10% year-on-year, driven by the successful launch of Somatuline in neuroendocrine tumors in the US and Europe, and the performance of Dysport in aesthetics. Core operating income grew by close to 24%, reflecting continuous transformation and cost monitoring efforts.
