Shares of Regeneron Pharmaceuticals (REGN) gained more than 8% in premarket trading on Friday, after the biotechnology firm reported stronger-than-expected third-quarter earnings, driven by growing demand for its eye treatments and higher collaboration revenue from Sanofi.
If the levels hold after the opening bell, REGN shares would jump to their highest levels since October 2024.
Regeneron reported a 36% surge in Q3 revenue to $5.12 billion, well above Wall Street estimates of $4.56 billion, according to Fiscal.ai. Adjusted earnings per share (EPS) shot up 70% to $20.07, also exceeding consensus estimates of $16.25.

CFO Christopher Fenimore attributed the Q3 beat to strong sales performance across its drug portfolio and higher collaboration revenue from Sanofi.
“Strong commercial execution across our portfolio, together with the anticipated step-up in Sanofi collaboration revenue in the first full quarter following repayment of the Development Balance, drove a 36% increase in total revenues and a 70% increase in non-GAAP EPS, positioning us to deliver one of our strongest years ever,” Fenimore said.
U.S. sales of Eylea HD, its higher-dose injectable treatment for certain retinal diseases, jumped 62% to $699 million. However, sales of the original Eylea fell 41% as patients switched to the newer version.

Regeneron’s collaboration revenue from Sanofi surged 68% to $2.72 billion, driven by strong demand for Dupixent, an inflammation treatment. Earlier this month, Regeneron and Sanofi expanded their partnership to develop four long-acting antibody treatments, with Regeneron receiving $1 billion upfront and becoming eligible for another $7 billion in future milestone payments.
Regeneron has approximately 50 product candidates in clinical development, covering cancer, obesity, immune disorders and other diseases. The company expects a U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) decision on Cemdisiran for generalized myasthenia gravis, a condition that causes muscle weakness, in November.
It ended September with approximately $18.86 billion in cash and marketable securities.
