Guidance all at CER
| Emma Walmsley, Chief Executive Officer, GSK:<br><br>“GSK’s<br>momentum continues with another quarter of strong performance,<br>supporting upgraded guidance for 2025, and positioning us well for<br>2026 and achieving our longer-term growth outlooks. Sales grew in<br>all areas, with particularly strong performances in Specialty<br>Medicines driven by double-digit growth in Respiratory Inflammation<br>& Immunology, Oncology and HIV. We have also continued to make<br>very good progress in R&D with four FDA product approvals so<br>far this year, including for Blenrep in the US last week, and the<br>start of pivotal trials and targeted business development to<br>advance 15 scale pipeline opportunities, all launching before<br>2031.<br><br>This is<br>my final quarter reporting as CEO, and so I would like to thank<br>everyone who has contributed to the transformation of GSK in the<br>last nine years. Together, we have delivered a step-change in<br>operating performance, new prospects for growth and a clear pathway<br>for scale patient impact and sustained shareholder value. I am<br>delighted to be passing the baton to Luke and to be leaving all<br>that GSK has to offer in such good hands. I look forward to<br>cheering him and everyone at GSK to further<br>success.” |
The Total results are presented in summary above and on page 8 and Core results reconciliations are presented on pages 20 and 23. Core results are a non-IFRS measure that may be considered in addition to, but not as a substitute for, or superior to, information presented in accordance with IFRS. The following terms are defined on pages 50-51: Core results, AER% growth, CER% growth and other non-IFRS measures. GSK provides guidance on a Core results basis only for the reasons set out on page 18. All expectations, guidance and targets regarding future performance and dividend payments should be read together with ‘Guidance and outlooks, assumptions and cautionary statements’ on page 52-53. Abbreviations are defined on page 56.
2025 Guidance
GSK upgrades its full-year 2025 guidance at constant exchange rates (CER).
| Guidance | New 2025 guidance at CER | Previous 2025 guidance at CER |
| Turnover | Increase<br>between 6% to 7% | Increase<br>towards the top end of the range of between 3% to 5% |
| Core<br>operating profit | Increase<br>between 9% to 11% | Increase<br>towards the top end of the range of between 6% to 8% |
| Core<br>earnings per share | Increase<br>between 10% to 12% | Increase<br>towards the top end of the range of between 6% to 8% |
This guidance is supported by the following revised turnover expectations for full-year 2025 at CER, with the overall turnover outcome, within the overall range, dependent on the ongoing challenges for Vaccines in the US.
| Turnover expectations | New 2025 guidance at CER | Previous 2025 guidance at CER |
| Specialty<br>Medicines | Increase<br>at a mid-teens percentage | Increase<br>at a low-teens percentage |
| Vaccines | Decrease<br>of low single-digit per cent to broadly stable | Decrease<br>of low single-digit per cent to broadly stable |
| General<br>Medicines | Broadly<br>stable | Broadly<br>stable |
Core operating profit is now expected to grow between 9 to 11 per cent at CER. GSK continues to expect to deliver gross margin benefit due to improved product mix from Specialty Medicines growth and continued operational efficiencies. In addition, GSK anticipates further leverage in Operating profit as we continue to take a returns-based approach to SG&A investments, with SG&A expected to grow at a low single-digit percentage. Royalty income is now expected to be at £800-850 million, including an IP settlement agreed in April and royalty income as part of the CureVac/BioNTech mRNA patent litigation settlement in Q3. R&D continues to be expected to grow ahead of sales reflecting accelerating investment in the pipeline including reinvestment of the IP settlement income.
Core earnings per share is now expected to increase between 10 to 12 per cent at CER, one percent above Core operating profit growth, reflecting the expected benefit of up to 1% from the share buyback programme and now broadly stable interest charges partly offset by a higher tax rate which is expected to rise up to around 17.5%. Expectations for non-controlling interests remain unchanged relative to 2024.
Tariffs
GSK notes the US Administration's ongoing investigation under Section 232 of the Trade Expansion Act to determine the effects on national security of imports of pharmaceutical products. Our full-year guidance is inclusive of tariffs enacted thus far and indicated potential European tariffs impact of 15%. We are positioned to respond to the potential financial impact of tariffs, with mitigation options identified. Given the uncertain external environment, we continue to monitor developments.
Dividend policy
The Dividend policy and the expected pay-out ratio remain unchanged. Consistent with this, GSK has declared a dividend for Q3 2025 of 16p per share. GSK's future dividend policy and guidance regarding the expected dividend pay-out in 2025 are provided on page 37.
GSK has commenced a £2 billion share buyback programme, to be implemented over the period to the end of Q2 2026.
2021-2026 and 2031 Outlooks
In February 2025 GSK set out improved outlooks for 2031. Please see 2024 full year and fourth quarter results on gsk.com(1).
Exchange rates
If exchange rates were to hold at the closing rates on 30 September 2025 ($1.34/£1, €1.14/£1 and Yen 199/£1) for the rest of 2025, the estimated impact on 2025 Sterling turnover growth for GSK would be -3% and if exchange gains or losses were recognised at the same level as in 2024, the estimated impact on 2025 Sterling Core Operating Profit growth for GSK would be -5%.
Results presentation
A conference call and webcast for investors and analysts of the quarterly results will be hosted by Emma Walmsley, CEO, at 12 noon GMT (US EDT at 08.00 am) on 29 October 2025. Presentation materials will be published on www.gsk.com prior to the webcast and a transcript of the webcast will be published subsequently.

| Specialty Medicines | 3,409 | 15% | 16% | 9,669 | 14% | 16% |
Specialty Medicines sales grew by double-digit percentages in the quarter and YTD, reflecting continued growth across disease areas, with strong performances in HIV, Respiratory, Immunology & Inflammation, and Oncology.
| HIV | 1,944 | 11% | 12% | 5,538 | 8% | 10% |
In Q3 2025 HIV sales grew by 12%, driven by strong patient demand growth of +10ppts with Dovato, Cabenuva and Apretude more than offsetting the decline in Triumeq following guideline changes at the end of 2024. Long-Acting Medicines contributed over 75% of total HIV growth in the quarter with Cabenuva contributing more than 50%. Growth also benefited from favourable pricing due to channel mix, which offset the impact of the IRA Medicare Part D redesign. The US grew 17% in the quarter. YTD, HIV sales grew by 10%, driven by +10ppts of patient demand growth. Long-Acting Medicines contributed over 80% of total HIV growth YTD with Cabenuva contributing more than 50%.
| Oral<br>2DR | 852 | 17% | 18% | 2,393 | 14% | 16% |
Dovato, the first and only once-daily oral 2DR for the treatment of HIV infection in both treatment naive and virally suppressed adults and adolescents, continues to be the largest product in the HIV portfolio with sales of £695 million in the quarter and growing 24%.
| Long-Acting | 477 | 52% | 54% | 1,302 | 45% | 48% |
Cabenuva, the only complete long-acting injectable regimen for HIV treatment, reached sales of £357 million in the quarter, growing 48% due to strong patient demand across US and Europe. Apretude, the first long-acting injectable option for HIV prevention, delivered sales of £120 million in the quarter, growing 75% compared to Q3 2024.

| £m | AER | CER | £m | AER | CER | ||
| Respiratory,<br>Immunology & Inflammation | 954 | 13% | 15% | 2,721 | 14% | 17% |
Sales continued to grow at a double-digit rate in the quarter and YTD, and were primarily comprised of contributions from Nucala in respiratory and Benlysta in immunology.
| Nucala | 499 | 12% | 14% | 1,441 | 11% | 13% |
Nucala is an IL-5 antagonist monoclonal antibody treatment for severe asthma, with additional indications including CRSwNP, EGPA, HES and COPD. Sales growth in the quarter and YTD was driven by strong performance across all regions, reflecting higher patient demand for treatments addressing eosinophilic-led disease. Strong double-digit growth in the Europe and International regions continued in the quarter and YTD. US sales in the quarter and YTD grew at positive single digit percentages, with volume increases driven by higher patient demand and the recent launch in COPD, partially offset by ongoing pricing pressures, including the impact of IRA Medicare Part D redesign.
| Benlysta | 447 | 15% | 17% | 1,257 | 18% | 21% |
Sales of Benlysta, a monoclonal antibody treatment for lupus, grew in the quarter and YTD representing strong demand and volume growth with bio-penetration rates having increased across many markets.
| Oncology | 511 | 37% | 39% | 1,410 | 41% | 44% |
Oncology sales are largely comprised of sales from Jemperli, Zejula and Ojjaara/Omjjara. Strong Oncology sales growth in the quarter and YTD were driven in particular by increasing patient demand for Jemperli and Ojjaara/Omjjara partially offset by decreases in Zejula. Blenrep, a treatment in relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma, achieved YTD sales of £4m following launch and associated inventory build in the UK in Q2 2025, and from further initial commercial introductions in some smaller markets in Q3 2025.
| Jemperli | 230 | 77% | 79% | 600 | 89% | 93% |
Sales of Jemperli grew strongly in the quarter and YTD, driven largely by continued volume growth following Q3 2024 FDA approval and Q1 2025 EMA approval expanding the indication to include all adult patients with primary advanced or recurrent endometrial cancer. Strong growth continues in the US from high patient uptake, with the Europe and International regions increasingly contributing to sales and growth, with Jemperli now available in over 35 countries worldwide.
| Zejula | 137 | (5%) | (4%) | 419 | (7%) | (5%) |
Sales of Zejula, a PARP inhibitor treatment for ovarian cancer, reduced in the quarter and YTD. In the US, mid-single digit sales growth in the quarter was driven largely by favourable inventory movements and positive channel mix pricing impacts, however sales decreased YTD driven by ongoing volume reductions, including impacts of an FDA labelling update restricting use to certain patient populations, and unfavourable pricing including the impacts of IRA Medicare Part D redesign. The Europe and International regions continued to decline in the quarter and YTD, largely driven by reduced volumes from increased competition.
| Ojjaara/Omjjara | 146 | 49% | 51% | 396 | 69% | 72% |
Sales of Ojjaara/Omjjara, a treatment for myelofibrosis patients with anaemia, grew strongly in the quarter and YTD. US sales grew driven by volume with continued increases in patient uptake. Sales and growth contributions from Europe and International continued to increase following high patient uptake, and from commercial launches in 2025 across the regions including in France, Spain Italy, Australia and Canada. Ojjaara/Omjjara is now available in over 30 countries worldwide.

| £m | AER | CER | £m | AER | CER | ||
| Vaccines | 2,678 | 1% | 2% | 6,864 | (1%) | 1% |
Vaccines sales increased in the quarter primarily driven by strong ex-US demand for Shingrix and Arexvy, partly offset by lower Established and Influenza vaccines sales. YTD sales growth was moderated by lower demand for Arexvy in the US and lower Shingrix sales in China.
| Shingles | 830 | 12% | 13% | 2,550 | 1% | 3% |
Shingrix growth was driven primarily by increased demand in Europe partly offset by lower sales in the US. Q3 2025 growth also benefitted from strong performance in International.
In Europe, Shingrix sales grew at 48% driven by continuous strong uptake from the launch in France together with higher market demand and expanded public funding across several countries.
Sales of Shingrix in International increased by 21% reflecting accelerated demand in Japan following expanded public funding from April 2025 partially offset by a strong 2024 comparator including rapid uptake from the national immunisation programme (NIP) in Australia. YTD sales reflected phasing of lower H1 2025 deliveries to our co-promotion partner in China.
US sales decreased by 15% due to the continuing slowdown in the pace of penetration of harder-to-activate unvaccinated consumers. The US cumulative immunisation rate reached 43%, up 4 percentage points compared to 12 months earlier(1).
Shingrix is now launched in 60 countries, with markets outside the US representing 66% of YTD 2025 global sales (YTD 2024: 57%). The overwhelming majority of ex-US Shingrix opportunity is concentrated in 10 markets where the average immunisation rate is around 10% with significantly higher uptake in funded cohorts.
| Meningitis | 541 | 4% | 5% | 1,270 | 11% | 14% |
Strong performance of our Meningitis vaccines was led by Bexsero, a vaccine against meningitis B, and also included initial sales from the US launch of Penmenvy, a pentavalent vaccine against meningitis A, B, C, W and Y.
Bexsero grew primarily in Europe driven by continued uptake following recommendation and reimbursement in Germany together with expanded cohort recommendations in France. Sales were also up in International due to higher demand and geographic expansion.
| RSV | 251 | 34% | 36% | 395 | (9%) | (6%) |
Arexvy sales increased in the quarter but decreased YTD. Q3 2025 growth was driven by Europe and International related to recommendation and reimbursement in Germany and tender deliveries in Canada and Spain. While YTD Arexvy maintained the US market leading position in the older adult setting, in the quarter US sales decreased reflecting lower pre-season channel inventory build and slower market uptake partly offset by favourable returns provision adjustments. YTD sales also reflected lower US H1 2025 demand, which was impacted by a more limited ACIP recommendation for adults aged 60-74 since June 2024.
Arexvy is approved in 67 markets globally, 20 countries have national RSV vaccination recommendations for older adults and 9, including the US, have reimbursement programmes for Arexvy in place at the quarter end.
| Influenza | 216 | (24%) | (22%) | 223 | (26%) | (24%) |
Influenza vaccines sales declined mainly in the US driven by competitive pressure.
| Established<br>Vaccines | 840 | (9%) | (8%) | 2,426 | (4%) | (2%) |
Established Vaccines sales decreased in the quarter as a result of the impact of divested brands, lower sales for Cervarix and Synflorix and unfavourable US CDC stockpile movements for Boostrix partly offset by higher demand for MMRV vaccines, including a one-off sale of bulk antigen. The YTD decline is also driven by 2024 sales of AS03 adjuvant partially offset by favourable CDC stockpile movements for Infanrix/Pediarix.

| £m | AER | CER | £m | AER | CER | ||
| General Medicines | 2,460 | 3% | 4% | 7,516 | (4%) | (1%) |
Sales include contributions from both the Respiratory portfolio, including Trelegy, and the Other General Medicine portfolio. Sales grew in the quarter, broadly stable on a YTD basis, with growth in Trelegy partially offset in the quarter, and was more than offset YTD, by reductions in other respiratory and Other General Medicine product sales.
| Respiratory | 1,702 | 5% | 7% | 5,283 | (2%) | –% |
Sales grew in the quarter, with an increased growth in Trelegy of 25% partially offset by decreases in other respiratory products, particularly in European and International regions, as a result of continued generic erosion and competitive pressures. YTD sales were broadly stable as Trelegy growth was fully offset by declines in other respiratory products.
| Trelegy | 736 | 23% | 25% | 2,246 | 10% | 13% |
Trelegy sales continued to grow in the quarter and YTD, with strong volume growth continued across all regions reflecting patient demand, SITT class growth, and increased market share. Growth in the quarter increased due to positive US pricing impacts, where favourable channel mix pricing adjustments contributed 10ppts of global growth, more than offsetting ongoing channel pricing pressures, including the impact of IRA Medicare Part D redesign.
| Other<br>General Medicines | 758 | (3%) | –% | 2,233 | (8%) | (4%) |
Other General Medicines sales were broadly stable in the quarter and decreased YTD, reflecting the impacts of generic competition across the portfolio.

| £m | AER | CER | £m | AER | CER | ||
| US | 4,549 | 5% | 7% | 12,416 | 3% | 5% |
Specialty Medicines double-digit sales growth in the quarter and YTD was driven by strong double-digit growth in Oncology, HIV and Benlysta, driven largely by patient demand. Sales of Nucala grew single digit in the quarter and YTD, where growth from continued volume increases resulting from higher patient demand, including impacts from the recent launch in COPD, were partially offset by continued pricing pressures, including the impact of IRA Medicare Part D redesign.
Vaccines sales decreased in the quarter and YTD due to competitive pressure for Influenza vaccines, lower demand for Shingrix and lower pre-season channel inventory build together with slower market uptake for Arexvy. In addition in the quarter there were unfavourable CDC stockpile movements in Established vaccines. YTD Established vaccine sales benefitted from favourable CDC stockpile movements for Infanrix/Pediarix and higher demand for MMR vaccines related to measles outbreaks.
General Medicines sales increased double-digit in the quarter, driven by strong Trelegy sales with volume increases and positive pricing impacts as well as favourable channel mix pricing adjustments more than offsetting ongoing channel pricing pressures, including the impact of IRA Medicare Part D redesign. Growth in Trelegy was partially offset by reductions in other products across the other respiratory and Other General Medicine portfolios. YTD sales were broadly stable as Trelegy growth was offset by other reductions across the General Medicine portfolio.
US performance in the quarter and YTD reflected the introduction of the IRA Medicare Part D redesign, which adversely impacted a number of products across Specialty Medicines, Vaccines and General Medicines.
| Europe | 1,878 | 16% | 13% | 5,466 | 11% | 11% |
Specialty Medicines sales grew low double-digit in the quarter and YTD due to continued strong performance in Oncology, Benlysta and Nucala including the benefit from new indication launches. HIV sales grew low single-digit in the quarter and YTD.
Vaccines sales grew double digit driven by Shingrix launch uptake in France together with higher market demand and expanded public funding across several countries. Bexsero and Arexvy sales also grew strongly mainly in Germany following recommendations and reimbursements.
General Medicines sales decreased in the quarter and YTD, with growth for Trelegy and Anoro being more than offset by decreases across other general medicine products.
| International | 2,120 | 2% | 6% | 6,167 | (2%) | 3% |
Specialty Medicines double-digit sales growth in the quarter and YTD was driven by Nucala in respiratory, Benlysta in immunology, and Oncology. HIV sales grew single-digit in the quarter and YTD.
Vaccines sales grew in the quarter driven by accelerated Shingrix demand in Japan and Arexvy tender supply in Canada partly offset by lower Established vaccines sales. YTD vaccines sales decreased reflecting lower deliveries to our co-promotion partner in China and a stronger 2024 comparator in Australia for Shingrix together with sales of AS03 adjuvant in H1 2024.
General Medicines sales increased low single digit in the quarter, but decreased low single digit YTD. Performance reflected double-digit growth for Trelegy and growth in Anoro being offset by decreases across other general medicine products.

| % of sales | 24.1% | 0.1% | (0.2%) | 24.0% | 0.2% | (0.2%) |
Total cost of sales as a percentage of sales decreased in the quarter and year to date primarily driven by additional amortisation in Q3 2024 for Zejula and Jemperli, as well as lower major restructuring and transaction-related items.
Core cost of sales as a percentage of sales in the quarter and year to date was broadly stable, with favourable mix benefits from growth in Specialty Medicines and regional mix driven by US and Europe sales, as well as operational efficiencies, being offset by inventory provision movements compared to 2024. The year to date also included pricing impacts with an adverse comparison to higher price benefits in the comparator period, as well as supply chain optimisation charges.

Total SG&A as a percentage of sales decreased in the quarter and year to date driven by lower Significant legal expenses due to the Q3 2024 charge of £1.8 billion ($2.3 billion) in relation to Zantac.
Core SG&A growth in the quarter and year to date reflected continued disciplined investment to support new asset launches, including Blenrep, Penmenvy, depemokimab and Blujepa, as well as growth of key assets including Shingrix, Nucala, Ojjaara/Omjjara and long-acting HIV medicines, with spend reallocated from General Medicines and the acceleration of ongoing productivity initiatives. Year to date Core SG&A growth also included a one percentage point impact driven by the Q1 2024 reversal of the legal provision related to the Zejula royalty dispute, following a successful appeal.

Total R&D growth in the quarter and year to date was driven by an increase in Core R&D expense, as well as higher impairment charges. The year to date included an impairment charge of £471 million related to the termination of the belrestotug development programme (anti-TIGIT mAb) in Q2 2025.
Core R&D investment increased reflecting progression across the portfolio. In Oncology, this included acceleration in work on ADCs and studies into Blenrep (1L), as well as IDRX-42, the GIST treatment acquired in Q1 2025. In Specialty Medicines, increased investment was driven by efimosfermin acquired from Boston Pharmaceuticals in Q3 2025, and progression of ULA treatment and PrEP programmes, notably Q4M and Q6M. Year to date growth was partly offset by lower spend on depemokimab following filing in Q4 2024.
Investment also increased on clinical trial programmes associated with the pneumococcal MAPS and mRNA seasonal flu.

| Core | 208 | 24% | 23% | 634 | 37% | 37% |
The increase in Total and Core royalty income in Q3 2025 and the year to date was primarily driven by Kesimpta(1), Abrysvo(2) and Comirnaty(3) royalties. The year to date included historic royalties recognised in association with the settlement of an IP dispute.

In Q3 2025 other operating income included a charge of £280 million (Q3 2024: £359 million) arising from the remeasurement of contingent consideration liabilities (CCL) and the liabilities for the Pfizer, Inc. (Pfizer) put option. The charge in the current quarter primarily reflected exchange movements and discount unwind. See page 22 for further details. Other net operating income at £304 million (Q3 2024: £24 million) was driven by the £268 million ($370 million) settlement from CureVac in connection with the mRNA patent settlement, as well as fair value movements on equity investments and other net income.
The year to date other operating income reflected a charge of £193 million (YTD 2024: £1,422 million) arising from the remeasurement of CCLs and the liabilities for the Pfizer put option, primarily reflecting discount unwind as well as updated sales forecasts partly offset by favourable foreign currency movements. See page 25 for further details. Other net operating income at £326m (YTD 2024: £236 million) includes the £268 million ($370 million) settlement from CureVac as well as fair value movements on equity investments and other net income.

| % of sales | 34.9% | 0.4% | 0.9% | 33.9% | 0.7% | 1.0% |
Total operating profit margin was higher in the quarter and year to date mainly due to the £1.8 billion charge for the Zantac settlement in Q3 2024, as well as higher other net operating income and lower CCL charges, partly offset by higher impairment charges.
Core operating profit growth in the quarter and year to date primarily reflected higher turnover, favourable product mix and royalty income including from IP settlements. Growth was partly offset by increased investment in R&D, new asset launches and growth assets, and adverse pricing impacts, as well as in the year to date the Q1 2024 reversal of the legal provision related to the Zejula royalty dispute, following a successful appeal.

The increase in net finance costs in Q3 2025 was mainly driven by higher interest expense on debt. The decrease in the year to date was mainly driven by higher interest income on favourable cash positions, favourable interest on tax, higher swap interest and favourable movements on derivatives fair value, partly offset by higher interest expense on debt.

The effective tax rate on Total results reflected the different tax effects of the various Adjusting items included in Total results.
The effective tax rate on Core profits is broadly in line with expectations for the year. Issues related to taxation are described in Note 14, ‘Taxation’ in the Annual Report 2024. The Group continues to believe it has made adequate provision for the liabilities likely to arise from periods that are open and not yet agreed by relevant tax authorities. The ultimate liability for such matters may vary from the amounts provided and is dependent upon the outcome of agreements with relevant tax authorities.

| Core | 176 | 12% | 15% | 513 | 7% | 10% |
The increase in Total and Core NCIs in the quarter and year to date was primarily driven by higher core profit allocations from ViiV Healthcare, and a lower remeasurement loss on the CCL compared to the comparator periods impacting Total NCIs in the year to date.

The increase in the Q3 2025 and year to date Total EPS was primarily driven by lower Significant legal charges, higher other net operating income and lower CCL charges, partly offset by higher impairment charges.
The increase in the Core EPS in the quarter and year to date primarily reflected the growth in Core operating profit and the share buyback, as well as lower net finance costs in the year to date, partly offset by higher non-controlling interests.
Currency impact on results
The results for Q3 2025 are based on average exchange rates, principally $1.33/£1, €1.16/£1 and Yen198/£1. The period-end exchange rates were $1.34/£1, €1.14/£1 and Yen199/£1. Comparative exchange rates are given on page 38.

In Q3 2025 and year to date, the adverse currency impact primarily reflected the strengthening of Sterling against US Dollar as well as emerging market currencies, partly offset in the quarter by strengthening of the Euro. Exchange gains on the settlement of intercompany transactions resulted in a minimal impact from currency on Core EPS in the quarter and a favourable one percentage point in the year to date. There was minimal impact on Total EPS.

Q3 2025
Cash generated from operations for the quarter was £2,520 million (Q3 2024: £2,499 million). The increase primarily reflected higher Core operating profit and the cash settlement from CureVac as well as lower inventory build, partly offset by £565 million Zantac settlement payments.
Total contingent consideration cash payments in the quarter were £326 million (Q3 2024: £309 million). £321 million (Q3 2024: £305 million) of these were recognised in cash flows from operating activities, including cash payments made to Shionogi & Co. Ltd (Shionogi) of £306 million (Q3 2024: £295 million).
Free cash inflow was £1,246 million for the quarter (Q3 2024: £1,322 million). The decrease was primarily driven by higher capital expenditure on intangible assets and lower proceeds from the sale of intangible assets, partly offset by lower taxation payments and higher cash generated from operations.
9 months 2025
Cash generated from operating activities was £6,254 million (9 months 2024: £5,275 million). The increase reflected higher Core operating profit, favourable timing and movements on returns and rebates, including the impact of the removal of the AMP cap in H1 2024, and the cash settlement from CureVac as well as lower inventory build. The increase was partly offset by an adverse movement in receivables driven by higher Arexvy and Shingrix collections in Q1 2024, as well as £688 million Zantac settlement payments.
Total contingent consideration cash payments in 9 months 2025 were £1,000 million (9 months 2024: £935 million). £989 million (9 months 2024: £924 million) of these were recognised in cash flows from operating activities, including cash payments made to Shionogi & Co. Ltd (Shionogi) of £956 million (9 months 2024: £900 million).
Free cash inflow was £3,069 million for 9 months 2025 (9 months 2024: £1,939 million). The increase was driven by higher cash generated from operations, lower tax payments, lower capital expenditure on property, plant and equipment, and lower net interest cost, partly offset by higher capital expenditure on intangible assets and lower proceeds from the sale of intangible assets.
Total Net debt
At 30 September 2025, net debt was £14,444 million, compared with £13,095 million at 31 December 2024, comprising gross debt of £17,750 million and cash and liquid investments of £3,306 million. See net debt information on page 41.
Net debt increased by £1,349 million primarily due to the net acquisition costs of IDRx, Inc. (IDRx), BP Asset IX, Inc. to access efimosfermin, and Cellphenomics GmbH totalling £1,655 million, dividends paid to shareholders of £1,918 million, and shares purchased as part of the share buyback programme of £1,125 million. This was partly offset by free cash inflow of £3,069 million and exchange gain on net debt of £241 million.
At 30 September 2025, GSK had short-term borrowings (including overdrafts and lease liabilities) repayable within 12 months of £2,856 million and £744 million repayable in the subsequent year.

Trust: progress on our six priority areas for responsible business
Building Trust by operating responsibly is integral to GSK’s strategy and culture. This will support growth and returns to shareholders, reduce risk, and help GSK’s people thrive while delivering sustainable health impact at scale. The Company has identified six Responsible Business focus areas that address what is most material to GSK’s business and the issues that matter the most to its stakeholders. Highlights below include activity since Q2 2025 results. For more details on annual updates, please see GSK's Responsible Business Performance Report 2024(1).
Access
Commitment: to make GSK’s vaccines and medicines available at value-based prices that are sustainable for the business and implement access strategies that increase the use of GSK’s vaccines and medicines to treat and protect underserved people.
Progress since Q2 2025:
| ● | In<br>September, the Ministry of Health in Peru adopted single-dose<br>tafenoquine and related blood testing into its National Treatment<br>Guidelines for adults with relapsing vivax malaria. Peru is now the<br>third country worldwide, following Brazil and Thailand, to expand<br>its antimalarial toolkit with tafenoquine. More information can be<br>found here(2). |
| ● | Performance<br>metrics related to access are updated annually with related details<br>in GSK's<br>Responsible Business Performance Report<br>2024(1) on<br>page 11. |
Global health and health security
Commitment: develop novel products and technologies to treat and prevent priority diseases, including pandemic threats.
Progress since Q2 2025:
| ● | In<br>August, GSK announced its scientists will join forces with leading<br>infectious diseases teams from the University of Dundee and the<br>University of Exeter to discover new treatments for fungal<br>diseases, addressing a critical unmet need highlighted by the World<br>Health Organization. This five-year project, supported by Wellcome<br>with a research grant of £17.9 million, seeks to identify new<br>antifungal treatments, with an initial focus on Cryptococcus<br>neoformans, a deadly fungus causing meningitis, and Candida auris,<br>which is thought to be the first human pathogenic fungus to have<br>emerged as a result of climate change. By identifying new<br>antifungal treatment options, the research also aims to help<br>address the burden of antimicrobial resistance and contribute to<br>long-term health security. More information can be found<br>here(3). |
| ● | The<br>European Medicines Agency (EMA) granted orphan drug designation to<br>AlpE - the combination of alpibectir and ethionamide - for the<br>treatment of tuberculosis (TB). Alpibectir was identified in a<br>successful public-private collaboration with GSK, the Pasteur<br>Institute of Lille and the University of Lille and is currently<br>being studied in combination with first line TB drugs. The EMA<br>orphan designation marks a significant step forward in GSK’s<br>mission to tackle drug-resistant TB and improve outcomes for<br>patients worldwide. This achievement reflects the strength of<br>GSK’s collaboration with BioVersys and the broader UNITE4TB<br>consortium, and underscores GSK’s dedication to advancing<br>global health through science and partnership. More information can<br>be found here(4). |
| ● | Performance<br>metrics related to global health and health security are updated<br>annually with related details in GSK's<br>Responsible Business Performance Report<br>2024(1) on page<br>16. |
Environment
Commitment: committed to a net zero, nature-positive, healthier planet with ambitious goals set for 2030 and 2045.
Progress since Q2 2025:
| ● | In<br>September, GSK’s science-based targets for Land were<br>independently validated using the Science Based Targets Network<br>(SBTN) guidance, making GSK one of the first companies to have<br>validated targets for Land and Freshwater. These targets focus on<br>locations across its value chain where nature is particularly under<br>pressure, including how GSK sources the raw materials needed to<br>manufacture the medicines and vaccines that patients rely on. More<br>information can be found here(5). |
| ● | In<br>October, GSK announced positive pivotal phase III data for its<br>next-generation low carbon version of Ventolin (salbutamol) metered dose<br>inhaler. Data confirm therapeutic equivalence and comparable safety<br>profile for Ventolin<br>(salbutamol) containing innovative low carbon propellant. If<br>approved, this next-generation low carbon salbutamol has the<br>potential to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by 92% per inhaler<br>compared to the current version. GSK will proceed with regulatory<br>submissions, with launch expected in some markets in 2026. More<br>information can be found here(6). |
| ● | Performance<br>metrics related to environment are updated annually with related<br>details in GSK's Responsible Business Performance<br>Report 2024(1) on page<br>19. |
Inclusion
Commitment: meet patients’ needs with research that includes those impacted by the disease under study, attract and retain the best talent regardless of background, and support all GSK people to thrive.
| ● | Performance<br>metrics related to inclusion are updated annually with related<br>details in GSK's Responsible Business Performance<br>Report 2024(1) on page<br>27. |
Ethical standards
Commitment: promote ethical behaviour across GSK’s business by supporting its employees to do the right thing and working with suppliers that share GSK’s standards and operate responsibly.
| ● | Performance<br>metrics related to ethical standards are updated annually with<br>related details in GSK's Responsible Business Performance<br>Report 2024(1) on page<br>29. |
Product governance
Commitment: maintain robust quality and safety processes and responsibly use data and new technologies.

Total and Core results
Total reported results represent the Group’s overall performance.
GSK uses a number of non-IFRS measures to report the performance of its business. Core results and other non-IFRS measures may be considered in addition to, but not as a substitute for, or superior to, information presented in accordance with IFRS. Core results are defined below and other non-IFRS measures are defined on pages 50 and 51.
GSK believes that Core results, when considered together with Total results, provide investors, analysts and other stakeholders with helpful complementary information to understand better the financial performance and position of the Group from period to period, and allow the Group’s performance to be more easily compared against the majority of its peer companies. These measures are also used by management for planning and reporting purposes. They may not be directly comparable with similarly described measures used by other companies.
GSK encourages investors and analysts not to rely on any single financial measure but to review GSK’s quarterly results announcements, including the financial statements and notes, in their entirety.
GSK is committed to continuously improving its financial reporting, in line with evolving regulatory requirements and best practice. In line with this practice, GSK expects to continue to review and refine its reporting framework.
Core results exclude the following items in relation to our operations from Total results, together with the tax effects of all of these items:
| ● | amortisation<br>of intangible assets (excluding computer software and capitalised<br>development costs) |
| ● | impairment<br>of intangible assets (excluding computer software) and<br>goodwill |
| ● | major<br>restructuring costs, which include impairments of tangible assets<br>and computer software, (under specific Board approved programmes<br>that are structural, of a significant scale and where the costs of<br>individual or related projects exceed £25 million), including<br>integration costs following material acquisitions |
| ● | transaction-related<br>accounting or other adjustments related to significant<br>acquisitions |
| ● | proceeds<br>and costs of disposal of associates, products and businesses;<br>significant settlement income; Significant legal charges (net of<br>insurance recoveries) and expenses on the settlement of litigation<br>and government investigations; other operating income other than<br>royalty income, and other items including amounts reclassified from<br>the foreign currency translation reserve to the income statement<br>upon the liquidation of a subsidiary where the amount exceeds<br>£25 million |
Costs for all other ordinary course smaller scale restructuring and legal charges and expenses from operations are retained within both Total and Core results.
As Core results include the benefits of Major restructuring programmes but exclude significant costs (such as Significant legal charges and expenses, major restructuring costs and transaction items) they should not be regarded as a complete picture of the Group’s financial performance, which is presented in Total results. The exclusion of other Adjusting items may result in Core earnings being materially higher or lower than Total earnings. In particular, when significant impairments, restructuring charges and legal costs are excluded, Core earnings will be higher than Total earnings.
GSK has undertaken a number of Major restructuring programmes in response to significant changes in the Group’s trading environment or overall strategy or following material acquisitions. Within the Pharmaceuticals sector, the highly regulated manufacturing operations and supply chains and long lifecycle of the business mean that restructuring programmes, particularly those that involve the rationalisation or closure of manufacturing or R&D sites are likely to take several years to complete. Costs, both cash and non-cash, of these programmes are provided for as individual elements are approved and meet the accounting recognition criteria. As a result, charges may be incurred over a number of years following the initiation of a Major restructuring programme.
Significant legal charges and expenses are those arising from the settlement of litigation or government investigations that are not in the normal course and materially larger than more regularly occurring individual matters. They also include certain major legacy matters.
Reconciliations between Total and Core results, providing further information on the key Adjusting items, are set out on pages 20 and 23.
GSK provides earnings guidance to the investor community on the basis of Core results. This is in line with peer companies and expectations of the investor community, supporting easier comparison of the Group’s performance with its peers. GSK is not able to give guidance for Total results as it cannot reliably forecast certain material elements of the Total results, particularly the future fair value movements on contingent consideration and put options that can and have given rise to significant adjustments driven by external factors such as currency and other movements in capital markets.
ViiV Healthcare
ViiV Healthcare is a subsidiary of the Group and 100% of its operating results (turnover, operating profit, profit after tax) are included within the Group income statement.
Earnings are allocated to the three shareholders of ViiV Healthcare on the basis of their respective equity shareholdings (GSK 78.3%, Pfizer 11.7% and Shionogi 10%) and their entitlement to preferential dividends, which are determined by the performance of certain products that each shareholder contributed. As the relative performance of these products changes over time, the proportion of the overall earnings allocated to each shareholder also changes. In particular, the increasing proportion of sales of dolutegravir and cabotegravir-containing products has a favourable impact on the proportion of the preferential dividends that is allocated to GSK. Adjusting items are allocated to shareholders based on their equity interests. GSK was entitled to approximately 85% of the Total earnings and 83% of the Core earnings of ViiV Healthcare for 2024.
As consideration for the acquisition of Shionogi’s interest in the former Shionogi-ViiV Healthcare joint venture in 2012, Shionogi received the 10% equity stake in ViiV Healthcare and ViiV Healthcare also agreed to pay additional future cash consideration to Shionogi, contingent on the future sales performance of the products being developed by that joint venture, dolutegravir and cabotegravir. Under IFRS 3 ‘Business combinations’, GSK was required to provide for the estimated fair value of this contingent consideration at the time of acquisition and is required to update the liability to the latest estimate of fair value at each subsequent period end. The liability for the contingent consideration recognised in the balance sheet at the date of acquisition was £659 million. Subsequent remeasurements are reflected within other operating income/(expense) and within Adjusting items in the income statement in each period.
Cash payments to settle the contingent consideration are made to Shionogi by ViiV Healthcare each quarter, based on the actual sales performance and other income of the relevant products in the previous quarter. These payments reduce the balance sheet liability and hence are not recorded in the income statement. The cash payments made to Shionogi by ViiV Healthcare in the nine months ended 30 September 2025 were £956 million.
As the liability is required to be recorded at the fair value of estimated future payments, there is a significant timing difference between the charges that are recorded in the Total income statement to reflect movements in the fair value of the liability and the actual cash payments made to settle the liability.
Further explanation of the acquisition-related arrangements with ViiV Healthcare are set out on pages 89 and 90 of the Annual Report 2024.

All values are in British Pounds.
The Separation restructuring programme incurred cash charges of £41 million primarily from restructuring of some commercial and administrative functions. The programme focussed on the separation of GSK into two separate companies and is now largely complete.
Costs of significant acquisitions relate to integration costs of Affinivax Inc. (Affinivax) which was acquired in Q3 2022, BELLUS Health Inc. (Bellus) acquired in Q2 2023, Aiolos Bio, Inc. (Aiolos) acquired in Q1 2024, IDRx acquired in Q1 2025 and BP Asset IX, Inc. acquired to access efimosfermin in Q3 2025.
Transaction-related adjustments
Transaction-related adjustments resulted in a net charge of £319 million (Q3 2024: £361 million), the majority of which related to charges/(credits) for the remeasurement of contingent consideration liabilities, the liabilities for the Pfizer put option, and Pfizer and Shionogi preferential dividends in ViiV Healthcare.

All values are in British Pounds.
The £249 million charge relating to the contingent consideration for the former Shionogi-ViiV Healthcare joint venture represented an increase in the valuation of the contingent consideration due to Shionogi driven by updated exchange rates and net other remeasurements of £154 million and the unwind of the discount for £95 million. An explanation of the accounting for the non-controlling interests in ViiV Healthcare is set out on page 19.
There was a £25 million charge in the quarter relating to the contingent consideration on the former Novartis Vaccines business primarily related to updated exchange rates and the unwind of the discount.
The £10 million charge relating to the contingent consideration on the acquisition of Affinivax primarily related to the unwind of the discount.
Significant legal charges, Divestments, and other items
Legal charges provide for all significant legal matters and are not broken out separately by litigation or investigation.
Divestments and other items included the £268 million ($370 million) settlement from CureVac in connection with the mRNA patent settlement, as well as other net income, including fair value movements on equity investments.

The Separation restructuring programme incurred cash charges of £49 million primarily from the restructuring of some commercial and administrative functions. The non-cash charges of £17 million primarily reflected the write-down of assets in manufacturing locations.
The programme focussed on the separation of GSK into two separate companies and is now largely complete. The programme has delivered its target of £1.1 billion of annual savings, with total costs still expected at £2.4 billion, with cash charges of £1.7 billion and non-cash charges of £0.7 billion.
Costs of significant acquisitions relate to integration costs of Affinivax which were acquired in Q3 2022, Bellus acquired in Q2 2023, Aiolos acquired in Q1 2024, IDRx acquired in Q1 2025 and BP Asset IX, Inc. acquired to access efimosfermin in Q3 2025.
Cash charges of £11 million under Legacy programmes primarily arose from the divestment of the cephalosporins business.
Transaction-related adjustments
Transaction-related adjustments resulted in a net charge of £241 million (9 months 2024: £1,463 million), the majority of which related to charges/(credits) for the remeasurement of contingent consideration liabilities, the liabilities for the Pfizer put option, and Pfizer and Shionogi preferential dividends in ViiV Healthcare.
| Charge/(credit) | 9 months 2025<br><br><br>m | 9<br>months 2024<br><br><br>£m |
| Contingent<br>consideration on former Shionogi-ViiV Healthcare joint<br>Venture<br><br><br>(including Shionogi preferential dividends) | 161 | 1,106 |

| Other<br>adjustments | 48 | 66 |
| Total<br>transaction-related charges | 241 | 1,463 |
All values are in British Pounds.
The £161 million charge relating to the contingent consideration for the former Shionogi-ViiV Healthcare joint venture represented an increase in the valuation of the contingent consideration due to Shionogi, driven by the unwind of the discount for £308 million partly offset by updated exchange rates and net other remeasurements of £147 million. The £96 million credit relating to the ViiV Healthcare put option and Pfizer preferential dividends represented a decrease in the valuation of the put option primarily as a result of updated exchange rates and sales forecasts. The ViiV Healthcare contingent consideration liability is fair valued under IFRS. An explanation of the accounting for the non-controlling interests in ViiV Healthcare is set out on page 19.
The £134 million charge relating to the contingent consideration on the former Novartis Vaccines business primarily related to changes to future sales forecasts, updated exchange rates and the unwind of the discount.
The £16 million credit relating to the contingent consideration on the acquisition of Affinivax primarily related to updated milestone payment dates partly offset by the unwind of the discount.
Significant legal charges, Divestments, and other items
Legal charges provide for all significant legal matters and are not broken out separately by litigation or investigation.
Divestments and other items included the £268 million ($370 million) settlement from CureVac in connection with the mRNA patent settlement, as well as other net income, including fair value movements on equity investments.

Segment information
Operating segments are reported based on the financial information provided to the Chief Executive Officer and the responsibilities of the GSK Leadership Team (GLT). GSK reports results under two segments: Commercial Operations and Total R&D. Members of the GLT are responsible for each segment.
R&D investment is essential for the sustainability of the business. However, for segment reporting the Commercial operating profits exclude allocations of globally funded R&D.
The Total R&D segment is the responsibility of the Chief Scientific Officer and is reported as a separate segment. The operating costs of this segment includes R&D activities across Specialty Medicines, including HIV and Vaccines. It includes R&D and some SG&A costs relating to regulatory and other functions.
The Group’s management reporting process allocates intra-Group profit on a product sale to the market in which that sale is recorded, and the profit analyses below have been presented on that basis.
Adjusting items reconciling segment profit and operating profit comprise items not specifically allocated to segment profit. These include impairment and amortisation of intangible assets (excluding computer software and capitalised development costs), major restructuring costs, which include impairments of tangible assets and computer software, transaction-related adjustments related to significant acquisitions, proceeds and costs of disposals of associates, products and businesses, Significant legal charges and expenses on the settlement of litigation and government investigations, other operating income other than royalty income, and other items including amounts reclassified from the foreign currency translation reserve to the income statement upon the liquidation of a subsidiary where the amount exceeds £25 million.

Commercial Operations Core operating profit of £4,514 million increased in the quarter driven by higher turnover, favourable product mix and royalty income, partly offset by increased investment in new asset launches and growth assets, as well as adverse pricing impacts in comparison to higher price benefits in Q3 2024.
The R&D segment operating expense of £1,489 million grew in the quarter primarily reflecting progression across the portfolio. In Oncology, this included acceleration in work on ADCs and studies into Blenrep (1L), as well as IDRX-42, the GIST treatment acquired in Q1 2025. In Specialty Medicines, increased investment was driven by efimosfermin acquired from Boston Pharmaceuticals in Q3 2025, and progression of ULA treatment and PrEP programmes, notably Q4M and Q6M. Investment also increased on clinical trial programmes associated with the pneumococcal MAPS and mRNA seasonal flu.

Commercial Operations Core operating profit of £12,540 million grew in the year to date driven by higher turnover, favourable product mix and royalty income, partly offset by increased investment in new asset launches and growth assets, as well as adverse pricing impacts in comparison to higher price benefits in YTD 2024.
The R&D segment operating expense of £4,309 million grew in the year to date primarily reflecting progression across the portfolio. In Oncology, this included acceleration in work on ADCs and studies into Blenrep (1L), as well as IDRX-42, the GIST treatment acquired in Q1 2025. In Specialty Medicines, increased investment was driven by efimosfermin acquired from Boston Pharmaceuticals in Q3 2025, and progression of ULA treatment and PrEP programmes, notably Q4M and Q6M. Year to date growth was partly offset by lower spend on depemokimab following filing in Q4 2024. Investment also increased on clinical trial programmes associated with the pneumococcal MAPS and mRNA seasonal flu.
Legal matters
The Group is involved in significant legal and administrative proceedings, principally product liability, intellectual property, tax, anti-trust, consumer fraud and governmental investigations, which are more fully described in the ‘Legal Proceedings’ note in the Annual Report 2024. At 30 September 2025, the Group’s aggregate provision for legal and other disputes (not including tax matters described on page 10) was £731 million (31 December 2024: £1,446 million).
The Group may become involved in significant legal proceedings in respect of which it is not possible to meaningfully assess whether the outcome will result in a probable outflow, or to quantify or reliably estimate the liability, if any, that could result from ultimate resolution of the proceedings. In these cases, the Group would provide appropriate disclosures about such cases, but no provision would be made.
The ultimate liability for legal claims may vary from the amounts provided and is dependent upon the outcome of litigation proceedings, investigations and possible settlement negotiations. The Group’s position could change over time, and, therefore, there can be no assurance that any losses that result from the outcome of any legal proceedings will not exceed by a material amount the amount of the provisions reported in the Group’s financial accounts.
Significant legal developments since the date of the Q2 2025 results:
Product Liability
Zantac
As previously disclosed, the vast majority of the remaining cases have been resolved or dismissed such that 13 state court cases remain. GSK is in negotiations with plaintiffs’ counsel on the remaining cases and has recently resolved the two cases in Nevada state court with trials scheduled in 2026. The trial in the Mayor & City of Baltimore action is scheduled to begin 28 September 2026.
In Delaware, following the Supreme Court’s reversal of the lower court’s decision on admissibility of expert opinions, the defendants filed a motion for summary judgment. Plaintiffs filed a motion to allow supplemental expert disclosures. A hearing on both motions was held on 23 October 2025.
As previously disclosed, approximately 14,000 product liability cases were dismissed following the grant of defendants’ Daubert motions in December 2022 in the Federal MDL proceeding. These are now on appeal by the plaintiffs to the United States Court of Appeals for the Eleventh Circuit, along with appeals in the medical monitoring and consumer class action cases. Oral argument was held on 10 October 2025. A decision is expected in the first half of 2026.
Intellectual Property
Zejula
In August 2025, GSK received a paragraph IV letter from Sun Pharmaceutical Industries Limited (“Sun”) relating to Zejula. On 19 September 2025, GSK filed a patent infringement suit against Sun in the United States District Court for the District of Delaware alleging Sun’s proposed generic of Zejula infringes GSK patents.
Breo
In August 2025, GSK received a paragraph IV letter from Transpire Bio Inc. (“Transpire”) relating to Breo. On 25 September 2025, GSK filed a patent and trademark infringement suit against Transpire in the United States District Court for the Southern District of Florida alleging Transpire’s proposed generic of Breo infringes GSK patents and trade dress.
Returns to shareholders
Quarterly dividends
The Board has declared a third interim dividend for 2025 of 16p per share (Q3 2024: 15p per share).
Dividends remain an essential component of total shareholder return and GSK recognises the importance of dividends to shareholders. On 23 June 2021, at the GSK Investor Update, GSK set out that from 2022 a progressive dividend policy will be implemented guided by a 40 to 60 per cent pay-out ratio through the investment cycle. Consistent with this, GSK has declared a dividend of 16p for Q3 2025. The expected dividend for 2025 is 64p per share. In setting its dividend policy, GSK considers the capital allocation priorities of the Group and its investment strategy for growth alongside the sustainability of the dividend.

Ordinary shareholders may participate in the dividend reinvestment plan (DRIP). The last date for DRIP elections is 15 December 2025. The equivalent interim dividend receivable by ADR holders will be calculated based on the exchange rate on 6 January 2026. An annual fee of $0.03 per ADS (or $0.0075 per ADS per quarter) is charged by the Depositary.

Share capital in issue
At 30 September 2025, 4,026 million shares (Q3 2024: 4,080 million) were in free issue (excluding Treasury shares and shares held by the ESOP Trusts). The Company issued a small number of shares in the quarter (Q3 2024: minimal number) under employee share schemes for net proceeds of £0.4 million (Q3 2024: £1 million).
On 5 February 2025, GSK announced a £2 billion share buyback programme to be completed over an 18 month period. As at 30 September 2025, 79 million shares have been repurchased and are being held as treasury shares, at a cost of £1,130 million, including transaction costs of £7 million.
Treasury shares for these purposes include shares purchased by GSK plc on 30 September 2025 under the third tranche of the share buyback programme. As announced via RNS, GSK purchased 305,000 ordinary shares on 30 September 2025, to be held as Treasury shares. Upon settlement of the relevant trades, the shares purchased on that date are held as Treasury shares, and are therefore treated as Treasury shares for the purposes of the Q3 2025 reporting period and this results announcement. The settlement cost of these shares was £5 million.
At 30 September 2025, the Company held 248 million Treasury shares at a cost of £4,087 million, of which 169 million shares at a cost of £2,957 million were repurchased as part of previous share buyback programmes, which has been deducted from retained earnings.
At 30 September 2025, the ESOP Trusts held 41.3 million shares, of which 40.7 million were held for the future exercise of share options and share awards and 0.6 million were held for the Executive Supplemental Savings plan. The carrying amount of £172 million has been deducted from other reserves. The market value of these shares was £652 million.

Additional information
Accounting policies and basis of preparation
This unaudited Results Announcement contains condensed financial information for the three and nine months ended 30 September 2025 and should be read in conjunction with the Annual Report 2024, which was prepared in accordance with UK-adopted international accounting standards in conformity with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006 and the IFRS Accounting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB). This Results Announcement has been prepared applying consistent accounting policies to those applied by the Group in the Annual Report 2024, except for the adoption of the amended IFRS Accounting Standard as set out below.
The IASB’s amendments to IAS 21 The Effects of Changes in Foreign Exchange Rates specify how an entity should assess whether a currency is exchangeable into another currency, and which spot exchange rate should be used when it is not. GSK has adopted these new requirements for the reporting period beginning on 1 January 2025, with no material impact on the Group’s financial statements.
The Group has not identified any changes to its key sources of accounting judgements or estimations of uncertainty compared with those disclosed in the Annual Report 2024.
This Results Announcement does not constitute statutory accounts of the Group within the meaning of sections 434(3) and 435(3) of the Companies Act 2006. The full Group accounts for 2024 were published in the Annual Report 2024, which has been delivered to the Registrar of Companies and on which the report of the independent auditor was unqualified and did not contain a statement under section 498 of the Companies Act 2006.
Exchange rates
GSK operates in many countries and earns revenues and incurs costs in many currencies. The results of the Group, as reported in Sterling, are affected by movements in exchange rates between Sterling and other currencies. Average exchange rates, as modified by specific transaction rates for large transactions, prevailing during the period, are used to translate the results and cash flows of overseas subsidiaries, associates and joint ventures into Sterling. Period-end rates are used to translate the net assets of those entities. The currencies which most influenced these translations and the relevant exchange rates were:
| Q3 2025 | Q3<br>2024 | 9 months 2025 | 9<br>months 2024 | 2024 | ||||||

Contingent liabilities
There were contingent liabilities at 30 September 2025 in respect of arrangements entered into as part of the ordinary course of the Group’s business. No material losses are expected to arise from such contingent liabilities. Provision is made for the outcome of legal and tax disputes where it is both probable that the Group will suffer an outflow of funds and it is possible to make a reliable estimate of that outflow. Descriptions of the significant legal disputes to which the Group is a party are set out on page 36, and pages 287 to 290 of the 2024 Annual Report.
Net assets
The book value of net assets increased by £2,666 million from £13,086 million at 31 December 2024 to £15,752 million at 30 September 2025. This primarily reflected contribution from Total comprehensive income for the period partly offset by dividends paid to shareholders, and shares repurchased under the first and second tranche and shares committed to be repurchased under the third tranche of the share buyback programme and associated transaction costs.
At 30 September 2025, the net surplus on the Group’s pension plans was £192 million compared with a £103 million net deficit at 31 December 2024. This movement from a net deficit to a net surplus is primarily related to an increase to the UK discount rate from 5.5% to 5.8% and a decrease to the UK inflation rate from 2.90% to 2.70%, and a $131 million contribution made to the US Cash Balance Plan during Q3 2025. This is partially offset by a decrease to the US discount rate from 5.5% to 5.0%, and lower UK and US asset values.
Other payables includes £300 million related to shares still to be purchased as part of the third tranche of the share buyback programme, including £5 million for shares purchased but not settled at 30 September 2025.
The estimated present value of the potential redemption amount of the Pfizer put option related to ViiV Healthcare, recorded in Other payables in Current liabilities, was £819 million (31 December 2024: £915 million).
Contingent consideration amounted to £6,783 million at 30 September 2025 (31 December 2024: £7,280 million) as follows:

Business acquisitions
On 21 February 2025, GSK completed the acquisition of 100% of IDRx, Inc, a Boston based, clinical stage biopharmaceutical company dedicated to developing precision therapies for the treatment of gastrointestinal stromal tumours (GIST). The acquisition includes a lead molecule, IDRX-42, a highly selective investigational tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) that is designed to improve the outcomes for patients with GIST. The consideration for the acquisition comprised an upfront payment of US$1.1 billion (£840 million) as adjusted for working capital acquired paid upon closing and up to US$150 million (£119 million) as an additional success-based regulatory milestone payment. The estimated fair value of the contingent consideration payable was US$56 million (£45 million). In addition, GSK will also be responsible for success-based milestone payments as well as tiered royalties for IDRX-42 owed to Merck KGaA, Darmstadt, Germany.
On 7th July 2025, GSK completed the acquisition of 100% of BP Asset IX, Inc. a subsidiary of Boston Pharmaceuticals which provides access to efimosfermin alfa. Efimosfermin is a phase III-ready, potential best-in-class, investigational speciality medicine to treat and prevent progression of steatotic liver disease (SLD). The consideration for the acquisition comprised an upfront payment of US$1.2 billion (£879 million) as adjusted for working capital acquired paid upon closing and up to US$800 million (£588 million) in certain success-based regulatory milestone payments. The estimated fair value of the contingent consideration payable was US$302 million (£222 million).
The values in the table below are provisional and subject to change. The purchase price allocations are expected to be completed by the end of Q4 2025.
During the period to 30th September 2025, no sales arising from the IDRx or BP Asset IX's businesses were included in Group turnover and no revenue is expected until regulatory approval is received on the respective acquired assets.
GSK continues to support the ongoing development of the acquired assets and consequently these assets will be loss making until regulatory approval on these assets is received. The development of these assets has been integrated into the Group’s existing R&D activities, so it is impracticable to quantify these development costs or the impact on Total profit after taxation for the period ended 30 September 2025.
Goodwill of £377 million (£109 million for IDRx and £268 million for BP Asset IX) has been recognised. The goodwill represents specific synergies available to GSK from the business combinations. The goodwill has been allocated to the Group’s R&D segment. None of the goodwill is expected to be deductible for tax purposes.
The provisional fair values of the net assets acquired, including goodwill, are as follows:
| IDRx Inc | BP Asset IX | Total | ||
| m | m | £m | ||
| Net<br>assets acquired: | ||||
| Intangible<br>assets | 882 | 1,030 | 1,912 | |

| Deferred<br>tax liabilities | (128) | (220) | (348) | |
| 776 | 833 | 1,609 | ||
| Goodwill | 109 | 268 | 377 | |
| Total<br>consideration | 885 | 1,101 | 1,986 |
All values are in British Pounds.
Of the total £2 billion consideration (£0.9 billion for IDRx and £1.1 billion for BP Asset IX), £277 million (£55 million for IDRx and £222 million for BP Asset IX) was unpaid as at 30 September 2025. As at 30 September 2025, the present value of the contingent consideration payable was £44 million for IDRX and £229 million for BP Asset IX.
On 15 January 2025, GSK completed the acquisition of a Berlin based private company, Cellphenomics GmbH, which has developed proprietary capabilities in developing durable organoid models, for a total cash consideration of up to €44 million (approximately £37 million) of which €15 million (£13 million) was unpaid as at 30 September 2025. The acquisition is accounted for as a business combination but is not considered a significant acquisition for the Group.

camlipixant (P2X3 receptor antagonist)
Camlipixant (BLU-5937) is an investigational, highly selective oral P2X3 receptor antagonist currently in development for first-line treatment of adult patients suffering from refractory chronic cough (RCC). The CALM phase III development programme to evaluate the efficacy and safety of camlipixant for use in adults with RCC is ongoing.

Depemokimab is in late-stage development in a range of IL-5 mediated conditions including asthma with type 2 inflammation, chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (CRSwNP), hypereosinophilic syndrome (HES) and eosinophilic granulomatosis with polyangiitis (EGPA). It is the first ultra-long-acting biologic engineered to have an extended half-life and high binding affinity and potency for IL-5, enabling six-month dosing intervals in phase III clinical trials.
In 2025, GSK initiated the ENDURA-1 and ENDURA-2 phase III clinical trials assessing the efficacy and safety of depemokimab as an add-on therapy in patients with uncontrolled moderate to severe chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) with type 2 inflammation. In Q3, the VIGILANT phase III trial was also initiated to assess early use of depemokimab in patients with COPD with type 2 inflammation who have experienced one exacerbation and are at high risk for future exacerbations.
Regulatory reviews seeking approval for the use of depemokimab in patients with asthma with type 2 inflammation and in patients with CRSwNP are ongoing in four major markets: EU, China, Japan and the US. Submissions in other markets are expected to progress through the year.

Oncology
Blenrep (belantamab mafodotin)
In October 2025, the US FDA approved Blenrep (belantamab mafodotin-blmf) in combination with bortezomib and dexamethasone (BVd) for the treatment of adult patients with relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma who have received at least two prior lines of therapy, including a proteasome inhibitor and an immunomodulatory agent. The approval was supported by data from the pivotal DREAMM-7 phase III trial showing superior efficacy for Blenrep combinations compared to standards of care, including overall survival versus a daratumumab-based triplet. Blenrep is the only anti-BCMA accessible in the community setting where 70% of patients receive care, and is available in the US through a new streamlined Risk Evaluation and Mitigation Strategy (REMS) programme.
Blenrep combinations are approved in 2L+ relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma in the EU, UK, Japan, Canada, Switzerland and Brazil. Applications are currently under review in other markets globally, including China where the application is based on the results of DREAMM-7 and has been granted Breakthrough Therapy Designation and Priority Review.
GSK is advancing the DREAMM (DRiving Excellence in Approaches to Multiple Myeloma) clinical programme to demonstrate Blenrep’s potential benefit in earlier lines of treatment. Follow-up continues for overall survival in both DREAMM-7 and DREAMM-8 with data expected in early 2028, including in patients who have received only one prior line of therapy. DREAMM-10, a phase III trial in newly diagnosed transplant-ineligible patients, which represent over 70% of patients starting therapy, was initiated in Q4 2024. Interim efficacy and safety data for Blenrep as a first line treatment are expected in early 2028 with enrolment expanded to US sites to increase US patient representation in the study population.

Jemperli (dostarlimab)
Jemperli (dostarlimab) remains the foundation of GSK’s immuno-oncology-based research and development programme. It is the only approved immuno-oncology-based treatment regimen to demonstrate a statistically significant and clinically meaningful overall survival benefit for the first-line treatment of adult patients with primary advanced or recurrent endometrial cancer irrespective of biomarker status. Ongoing pivotal trials include those in our AZUR programme (colon / rectal cancers), JADE (head and neck cancer), and DOMENICA (supported-collaborative study with ARCAGY-GINECO in endometrial cancer).
In September 2025, the decision was made to terminate the cobolimab development programme. All GSK- and Tesaro-sponsored studies of cobolimab are in the process of winding down and the global rights to the asset will be returned to the original licensor, AnaptysBio.

Zejula (niraparib)
GSK continues to assess the potential of niraparib, currently approved as Zejula for treating ovarian cancer, in addressing other challenging cancers. Niraparib monotherapy is being evaluated in patients with newly diagnosed, MGMT unmethylated glioblastoma in the phase III GLIOFOCUS trial sponsored by the Ivy Brain Tumor Center and supported by GSK.
In October 2025, the US FDA granted Orphan Drug Designation (ODD) to niraparib for the treatment of malignant glioma, including glioblastoma. ODD is a special status granted by the FDA to medicines intended to treat, diagnose, or prevent rare diseases. The five-year survival rate for glioblastoma of less than 7% highlights a clear and urgent need for greater innovation. Early clinical data suggest that niraparib could have potential as an effective treatment for patients with newly diagnosed MGMT unmethylated glioblastoma.

HIV
As a pioneer in long-acting injectables, ViiV Healthcare, majority owned by GSK, is focused on the next-generation of HIV innovation with integrase inhibitors (INSTIs), the gold standard for HIV regimens, at the core. The HIV pipeline, including three new INSTIs in development and five planned launches by 2030, will continue to drive performance over the coming decade and beyond.
In October 2025, data were shared at the European AIDS Conference (EACS) and IDWeek 2025, reinforcing leadership in HIV innovation, with a focus on long-acting injectables.
Data included results from CLARITY, a phase I study comparing acceptability and tolerability of single-dose long-acting cabotegravir (CAB LA, marketed as Apretude) versus lenacapavir. Patient experience is an important factor for injectables and results showed a significant majority of participants and healthcare professionals preferred CAB LA, with the majority finding CAB LA injections to be totally or very acceptable. These data add to the growing body of clinical and real-world efficacy, safety and tolerability evidence supporting Apretude, and will help inform expectations and decision making when initiating long-acting injectables for HIV prevention. Results were also shared from part two of the phase IIb EMBRACE study evaluating N6LS, one of the broadest and most potent broadly neutralising antibodies (bNABs) currently in development in combination with CAB LA. This asset is seen as a potential partner candidate for twice yearly dosing and the next phase of the study is now fully recruited.

Infectious Diseases
Arexvy (respiratory syncytial virus vaccine, adjuvanted)
GSK continues to progress the life-cycle management of Arexvy, its RSV vaccine for adults, with potential expanded indications in new populations and geographies. The vaccine is now under regulatory review by the European Medicines Agency (EMA) to expand use in adults 18 years and older, with a regulatory decision anticipated in H1 2026. Regulatory reviews are also ongoing in the US and Japan to expand use in adults aged 18-49 at increased risk of severe RSV disease. In September 2025, the EMA approved an update to Arexvy's EU label, to allow its co-administration with Herpes zoster vaccine (recombinant, adjuvanted) or with pneumococcal conjugate vaccine.
The vaccine has now been approved for use in 67 markets worldwide.

bepirovirsen (HBV ASO)
Bepirovirsen, a triple-action antisense oligonucleotide, is a potential new treatment option for people with chronic hepatitis B (CHB) that has been granted Fast Track designation by the US FDA and SENKU designation by the Japanese Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare in Japan for the treatment of CHB. To further expand development of novel sequential regimens, GSK entered an agreement for an exclusive worldwide license to develop and commercialise daplusiran/tomligisiran (GSK5637608, formerly JNJ-3989), an investigational hepatitis B virus-targeted small interfering ribonucleic acid (siRNA) therapeutic. This agreement provides an opportunity to investigate a novel sequential regimen to pursue functional cure in an even broader patient population with bepirovirsen. Phase IIb trials for this sequential therapy started in Q4 2024.

tebipenem HBr
GSK has an exclusive licence agreement with Spero Therapeutics, Inc. for the development of tebipenem HBr (oral carbapenem antibiotic). In May 2025, the phase III PIVOT-PO trial evaluating tebipenem HBr as oral treatment for complicated urinary tract infections (cUTIs), including pyelonephritis, was stopped early for efficacy following a recommendation from an Independent Data Monitoring Committee.
In October 2025, positive phase III data from the PIVOT-PO trial were presented at IDWeek 2025. The data demonstrate non-inferiority compared with intravenous carbapenem antibiotics and show tebipenem HBr's potential as the first oral option for patients with cUTIs.
GSK plans to work with US regulatory authorities to include the data as part of a filing in H2 2025. If approved, tebipenem HBr could be the first oral carbapenem antibiotic for patients in the US who suffer from cUTIs, adding to GSK’s innovative anti-infectives portfolio and helping address the challenges of antimicrobial resistance (AMR).

Reporting definitions
CAGR (Compound annual growth rate)
CAGR is defined as the compound annual growth rate and shows the annualised average rate for growth in sales and core operating profit between 2021 to 2026, assuming growth takes place at an exponentially compounded rate during those years.
CER and AER growth
In order to illustrate underlying performance, it is the Group’s practice to discuss its results in terms of constant exchange rate (CER) growth. This represents growth calculated as if the exchange rates used to determine the results of overseas companies in Sterling had remained unchanged from those used in the comparative period. CER% represents growth at constant exchange rates. For those countries which qualify as hyperinflationary as defined by the criteria set out in IAS 29 ‘Financial Reporting in Hyperinflationary Economies’ (Argentina and Turkey) CER growth is adjusted using a more appropriate exchange rate where the impact is significant, reflecting depreciation of their respective currencies in order to provide comparability and not to distort CER growth rates.
AER% represents growth at actual exchange rates.
Core Earnings per share
Unless otherwise stated, Core earnings per share refers to Core basic earnings per share.
Core Operating Margin
Core Operating margin is Core operating profit divided by turnover.
Free cash flow
Free cash flow is defined as the net cash inflow/outflow from operating activities less capital expenditure on property, plant and equipment and intangible assets, contingent consideration payments, net finance costs, and dividends paid to non-controlling interests, contributions from non-controlling interests plus proceeds from the sale of property, plant and equipment and intangible assets, and dividends received from joint ventures and associates. The measure is used by management as it is considered an indicator of net cash generated from business activities (excluding any cash flows arising from equity investments, business acquisitions or disposals and changes in the level of borrowing) available to pay shareholders dividends and to fund strategic plans. Free cash flow growth is calculated on a reported basis. A reconciliation of net cash inflow from operations to free cash flow from operations is set out on page 41.
Free cash flow conversion
Free cash flow conversion is free cash flow from operations as a percentage of profit attributable to shareholders.
General Medicines
General Medicines are usually prescribed in the primary care or community settings by general healthcare practitioners. For GSK, this includes medicines for inhaled respiratory, dermatology, antibiotics and other diseases.
Non-controlling interest
Non-controlling interest is the equity in a subsidiary not attributable, directly or indirectly, to a parent.
Percentage points
Percentage points of growth which is abbreviated to ppts.
RAR (Returns and Rebates)
GSK sells to customers both commercial and government mandated contracts with reimbursement arrangements that include rebates, chargebacks and a right of return for certain pharmaceutical products principally in the US. Revenue recognition reflects gross-to-net sales adjustments as a result. These adjustments are known as the RAR accruals and are a source of significant estimation uncertainty and fluctuation which can have a material impact on reported revenue from one accounting period to the next.
Risk adjusted sales
Pipeline risk-adjusted sales are based on the latest internal estimate of the probability of technical and regulatory success for each asset in development.
Specialty Medicines
Specialty Medicines are typically prescription medicines used to treat complex or rare chronic conditions. For GSK, this comprises medicines for infectious diseases, HIV, Respiratory, Immunology & Inflammation, and Oncology.
Total Net debt
Net debt is defined as total borrowings less cash, cash equivalents, liquid investments, and short-term loans to third parties that are subject to an insignificant risk of change in value. The measure is used by management as it is considered a good indicator of GSK's ability to meet its financial commitments and the strength of its balance sheet.
Total and Core results
Total reported results represent the Group’s overall performance. GSK uses a number of non-IFRS measures to report the performance of its business. Core results and other non-IFRS measures may be considered in addition to, but not as a substitute for or superior to, information presented in accordance with IFRS. Core results are defined on page 18 and other non-IFRS measures are defined in pages 50 and 51.
Total Operating Margin
Total Operating margin is Total operating profit divided by turnover.
Total Earnings per share
Unless otherwise stated, Total earnings per share refers to Total basic earnings per share.
Working capital
Working capital represents inventory and trade receivables less trade payables.
Year to date
Year to date is the nine-month period in the year to 30 September 2025 or the same prior period in 2024 as appropriate.

Guidance and Outlooks, assumptions and cautionary statements
2025 Guidance
GSK upgrades its full-year 2025 guidance at constant exchange rates (CER).
GSK now expects its turnover to increase between 6% to 7% and Core operating profit to increase between 9% to 11%. Core earnings per share is expected to increase between 10% to 12%. Within the overall range, the overall turnover outcome is dependent on the ongoing challenges for Vaccines in the US.
The Group has made planning assumptions that we expect turnover for Specialty Medicines to increase at a mid-teens percentage, Vaccines to decrease by a low-single digit per cent to broadly stable, and General Medicines to be broadly stable.
The Core earnings per share guidance includes the implementation of the £2 billion share buyback programme to the end of Q2 2026.
2021-2026 and 2031 Outlooks
In February 2025 GSK set out improved outlooks for 2031. Please see 2024 full year and fourth quarter results on gsk.com(1).
Assumptions and basis of preparation related to 2025 Guidance, 2021-26 and 2031 Outlooks
In outlining the guidance for 2025, and outlooks for the period 2021-26 and for 2031, the Group has made certain assumptions about the macro-economic environment, the healthcare sector (including regarding existing and possible additional governmental legislative and regulatory reform), the different markets and competitive landscape in which the Group operates and the delivery of revenues and financial benefits from its current portfolio, its development pipeline and restructuring programmes. GSK notes the US Administration's ongoing investigation under Section 232 of the Trade Expansion Act to determine the effects on national security of imports of pharmaceutical products. Our full-year guidance is inclusive of tariffs enacted thus far and indicated potential European tariffs impact of 15%. We are positioned to respond to the potential financial impact of tariffs, with mitigation options identified. Given the uncertain external environment, we continue to monitor developments.
2025 Guidance
These planning assumptions as well as operating profit and earnings per share guidance and dividend expectations assume no material interruptions to supply of the Group’s products, no material mergers, acquisitions or disposals, no material litigation or investigation costs for the Company (save for those that are already recognised or for which provisions have been made) and no change in the Group’s shareholdings in ViiV Healthcare. The assumptions also assume no material changes in the healthcare environment or unexpected significant changes in pricing or trade policies, including tariffs (except as noted above), as a result of government or competitor action. The 2025 guidance factors in all divestments and product exits announced to date.
2021-26 and 2031 Outlooks
The assumptions for GSK’s revenue, Core operating profit, Core operating margin and cash flow outlooks, 2031 revenue outlook and margin expectations through dolutegravir loss of exclusivity assume the delivery of revenues and financial benefits from its current and development pipeline portfolio of medicines and vaccines (which have been assessed for this purpose on a risk-adjusted basis, as described further below); regulatory approvals of the pipeline portfolio of medicines and vaccines that underlie these expectations (which have also been assessed for this purpose on a risk-adjusted basis, as described further below); no material interruptions to supply of the Group’s products; successful delivery of the ongoing and planned integration and restructuring plans; no material mergers, acquisitions or disposals or other material business development transactions; no material litigation or investigation costs for the Company (save for those that are already recognised or for which provisions have been made); and no change in the shareholdings in ViiV Healthcare. GSK assumes no premature loss of exclusivity for key products over the period.
The assumptions for GSK’s revenue, Core operating profit, Core operating margin and cash flow outlooks, 2031 revenue outlook and margin expectations through dolutegravir loss of exclusivity also factor in all divestments and product exits announced to date as well as material costs for investment in new product launches and R&D. Risk- adjusted sales includes sales for potential planned launches which are risk-adjusted based on the latest internal estimate of the probability of technical and regulatory success for each asset in development.
Notwithstanding our guidance, outlooks and expectations, there is still uncertainty as to whether our assumptions, guidance, outlooks and expectations will be achieved.
All outlook statements are given on a constant currency basis and use 2024 average exchange rates as a base (£1/$1.28, £1/€1.18, £1/Yen 193).

Assumptions and cautionary statement regarding forward-looking statements
The Group’s management believes that the assumptions outlined above are reasonable, and that the guidance, outlooks, and expectations described in this report are achievable based on those assumptions. However, given the forward-looking nature of these guidance, outlooks, and expectations, they are subject to greater uncertainty, including potential material impacts if the above assumptions are not realised, and other material impacts related to foreign exchange fluctuations, macro-economic activity, the impact of outbreaks, epidemics or pandemics, changes in legislation, regulation, government actions, including the impact of any potential tariffs or other restrictive trade policies on the Group's products, or intellectual property protection, product development and approvals, actions by our competitors, and other risks inherent to the industries in which we operate.
This document contains statements that are, or may be deemed to be, “forward-looking statements”. Forward-looking statements give the Group’s current expectations or forecasts of future events. An investor can identify these statements by the fact that they do not relate strictly to historical or current facts. They use words such as ‘anticipate’, ‘estimate’, ‘expect’, ‘intend’, ‘will’, ‘project’, ‘plan’, ‘believe’, ‘target’ and other words and terms of similar meaning in connection with any discussion of future operating or financial performance. In particular, these include statements relating to future actions, prospective products or product approvals, future performance or results of current and anticipated products, sales efforts, expenses, the outcome of contingencies such as legal proceedings, dividend payments and financial results. Other than in accordance with its legal or regulatory obligations (including under the Market Abuse Regulation, the UK Listing Rules and the Disclosure Guidance and Transparency Rules of the Financial Conduct Authority), the Group undertakes no obligation to update any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. The reader should, however, consult any additional disclosures that the Group may make in any documents which it publishes and/or files with the SEC. All readers, wherever located, should take note of these disclosures. Accordingly, no assurance can be given that any particular expectation will be met and investors are cautioned not to place undue reliance on the forward-looking statements.
All guidance, outlooks and expectations should be read together with the guidance and outlooks, assumptions and cautionary statements in this Q3 2025 earnings release and in the Group's 2024 Annual Report on Form 20-F.
Forward-looking statements are subject to assumptions, inherent risks and uncertainties, many of which relate to factors that are beyond the Group’s control or precise estimate. The Group cautions investors that a number of important factors, including those in this document, could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied in any forward-looking statement. Such factors include, but are not limited to, those discussed under ‘Risk Factors’ in the Group’s Annual Report on Form 20-F for 2024. Any forward-looking statements made by or on behalf of the Group speak only as of the date they are made and are based upon the knowledge and information available to the Directors on the date of this report.
Independent review report to GSK plc
Conclusion
We have been engaged by GSK plc (“the company”) to review the condensed financial information in the Results Announcement of the company for the three and nine months ended 30 September 2025.
The condensed financial information comprises:
| ● | the<br>income statement and statement of comprehensive income for the<br>three and nine month periods ended 30 September 2025 on page 26 and<br>27; |
| ● | the<br>balance sheet as at 30 September 2025 on page 28; |
| ● | the<br>statement of changes in equity for the nine-month period then ended<br>on page 29; |
| ● | the<br>cash flow statement for the nine-month period then ended on page<br>30; and |
| ● | the<br>accounting policies and basis of preparation and the explanatory<br>notes to the condensed financial information on pages 31 to 41 that<br>have been prepared applying consistent accounting policies to those<br>applied by GSK plc and its subsidiaries (“the Group”)<br>in the Annual Report 2024, which was prepared in accordance with<br>UK-adopted international accounting standards in conformity with<br>the requirements of the Companies Act 2006 and the IFRS Accounting<br>Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards<br>Boards (IASB). |
Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the condensed financial information in the Results Announcement for the three and nine months ended 30 September 2025 is not prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with the accounting policies set out in the accounting policies and basis of preparation section on page 38.
Basis for Conclusion
We conducted our review in accordance with International Standard on Review Engagements (UK) 2410 “Review of Interim Financial Information Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity” issued by the Financial Reporting Council for use in the United Kingdom (ISRE (UK) 2410). A review of interim financial information consists of making inquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (UK) and consequently does not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion.
As disclosed on page 38, the annual financial statements of the Group are prepared in accordance with United Kingdom adopted international accounting standards. The condensed set of financial information included in this Results Announcement have been prepared in accordance with the accounting policies set out in the accounting policies and basis of preparation section on page 38.
Conclusion Relating to Going Concern
Based on our review procedures, which are less extensive than those performed in an audit as described in the Basis for Conclusion section of this report, nothing has come to our attention to suggest that the directors have inappropriately adopted the going concern basis of accounting or that the directors have identified material uncertainties relating to going concern that are not appropriately disclosed.
This Conclusion is based on the review procedures performed in accordance with ISRE (UK) 2410, however future events or conditions may cause the entity to cease to continue as a going concern.
Responsibilities of the directors
The directors are responsible for preparing the Results Announcement of the company in accordance with the Disclosure Guidance and Transparency Rules of the United Kingdom’s Financial Conduct Authority.
In preparing the Results Announcement, the directors are responsible for assessing the company’s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the directors either intend to liquidate the company or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.
Auditor’s Responsibilities for the review of the financial information
In reviewing the Results Announcement, we are responsible for expressing to the company a conclusion on the condensed financial information in the Results Announcement. Our Conclusion, including our Conclusion Relating to Going Concern, are based on procedures that are less extensive than audit procedures, as described in the Basis for Conclusion paragraph of this report.
Use of our report
This report is made solely to the company in accordance with ISRE (UK) 2410. Our work has been undertaken so that we might state to the company those matters we are required to state to it in an independent review report and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the company, for our review work, for this report, or for the conclusions we have formed.
