Servi­er adds a 's­mile' to its brand while set­ting am­bi­tious on­col­o­gy goals

Servi­er has dropped bil­lions of dol­lars over the past sev­er­al years with the goal of be­com­ing a top play­er in hard-to-treat can­cers. Now it’s set­ting a dead­line — and giv­ing its brand a makeover.

The French phar­ma aims to hit at least $2.9 bil­lion (€3 bil­lion) in an­nu­al on­col­o­gy sales by 2030, an am­bi­tious goal con­sid­er­ing the group’s to­tal rev­enue for the 2020/2021 fis­cal year topped out at $4.6 bil­lion (€4.725 bil­lion). Servi­er launched a pri­vate US branch to fo­cus on can­cer back in 2018 dubbed Servi­er Phar­ma­ceu­ti­cals, just af­ter sweep­ing up Shire’s on­col­o­gy busi­ness for $2.4 bil­lion. A few years lat­er, the com­pa­ny threw down $1.8 bil­lion to take Agios’ Tib­so­vo and oth­er can­cer can­di­dates in­to the fold.
