FISCAL YEAR 2022 OUTLOOK

The construction of Samsung Biologics Plant 4 is on schedule with 6 X 10KL production capacity expected to commence operations in October. The company has secured a number of large scale manufacturing contracts with active presales activities for Plant 4,and at the close of Q2,in the first half of 2022 alone,the company had secured over USD 7.9 billion in sales backlog including deals with Janssen,Merck,GSK,Lilly,and Novartis to name a few.

Earlier this month,Samsung Biologics secured additional land sized at 357,366 ㎡and approximately 30% larger than its current site,to support the build out of its second campus. At the newly acquired site,the company will host additional large-scale manufacturing facilities as well as an open innovation facility.

Samsung Biologics also published its second annual ESG Report this month,reflecting the company's latest sustainability efforts to address a wide range of environmental,social,and governance (ESG) activities related to its business.
