Full-year 2024 guidance suspended due to the temporary pause of API
production at the Brindisi site in Italy
Paris – March
14th, 2024 – EUROAPI
today announces that its Italian subsidiary, EUROAPI Italy S.R.L.,
is suspending the production of all APIs1 in Brindisi. Following an
internal audit, quality control deficiencies due to potential local
misconduct have been identified and are being further investigated.
Production will remain suspended until further notice. The relevant
health authorities have been informed. The company has initiated a
forensic audit and will inform its customers.
The Brindisi site produces 11 APIs and
intermediates, mostly anti-infectives (including spiramycin,
rifaximin, rifampicin and teicoplanin). In 2023, sales related to
the Brindisi site amounted to 63 million euros, of which 43%
related to Sanofi. The value of Brindisi non-current assets has
been fully impaired in 2023 Consolidated Accounts. This situation
is expected to impact the Group's operational and financial
performance. Consequently, the full-year 2024 guidance is
suspended. A revised full-year 2024 outlook will be provided in Q2
2024, along with the planned communication on the implementation
and the financing of the FOCUS-27 project announced on February
28th, 2024.
