BERLIN (Reuters) – Germany’s BioNTech, whose COVID-19 vaccine in partnership with Pfizer was widely used during the pandemic, reported on Wednesday a plunge in 2023 revenue and earnings as its focus shifts towards cancer drug development.
The Mainz-based company posted revenues of 3.819 billion euros, down by more than three-quarters compared to 2022, and net profit of 930.3 million euros, 90% lower than a year earlier.
BioNTech is targeting 2024 revenues in a range of 2.5 billion to 3.1 billion euros, depending among other things on regulatory developments and COVID-19 vaccine uptake, it said in a statement.
The company is aiming for its first oncology launch in 2026 and ten indication approvals by 2030, the statement added.
