DJSI World highlights the most sustainable companies around the world by industry

Regeneron Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (NASDAQ: REGN) has been recognized as a global corporate responsibility leader through inclusion on the Dow Jones Sustainability World Index (DJSI World) for the third year in a row. Regeneron was also named to the Dow Jones Sustainability North America Index (DJSI North America) for the second time.

"We are proud that Regeneron has once again been named to the Dow Jones Sustainability World Index, alongside other corporate responsibility leaders," said Leonard S. Schleifer, M.D., Ph.D., President and Chief Executive Officer of Regeneron. "Corporate responsibility is woven into everything we do, as we create novel medicines for people in need. Our ESG strategy is grounded in the belief that being ethical and transparent are crucial to this mission. We remain committed to applying our unique science-led approach to advancing our global 2025 responsibility goals and working to improve our world."

Regeneron's global 2025 responsibility goals focus on relevant environmental and social issues and are part of the company's long-standing commitment to corporate responsibility. Regeneron provides an overview of our responsibility efforts and progress to date in our annual Responsibility Report. In addition to DJSI World, Regeneron has received a number of other recognitions, including inclusion on The Civic 50, a list of the 50 most community-minded companies in the United States; FTSE4Good Index, a list of companies with leading environmental, social and governance practices; Forbes' JUST 100 Companies; and Newsweek's America's Most Responsible Companies.
