As Shire announces unaudited results for the year to 31 December 2015, Flemming Ornskov, M.D. CEO, comments:

“In 2015, we significantly advanced our strategy to become a leading global biotechnology company focused on rare diseases and other specialty conditions. Our continued focus on innovation has resulted in Shire entering 2016 with the most robust pipeline in its history, now with 14 programs either in Phase 3 or Phase 3 ready, and with the acquisition of Dyax and the planned combination with Baxalta, we are positioned for global leadership in rare diseases.”
