- Estimated number of doses per vaccinated person per year, on average~1.3 doses
- Estimated Comirnaty market share - U.S.~64%
- Estimated total demand for Paxlovid - global*, excluding China (includes use of existing government supply)~17 million courses
Challenges Ahead
- Company revenues are anticipated to be lower in 2023 than in 2022 due entirely to expected revenue declines for Pfizer’s COVID-19 products.
- Comirnaty revenues of approximately $13.5 billion, down 64% from actual 2022 results.
- Paxlovid revenues of approximately $8 billion, down 58% from actual 2022 results.
- The midpoint of the guidance range for Adjusted diluted EPS reflects a 49% operational decrease compared to 2022, primarily driven by anticipated lower revenues from COVID-19 products,
- Financial guidance for Adjusted diluted EPS is calculated using approximately 5.75 billion weighted average shares outstanding, and assumes no share repurchases in 2023.
