`Moderna Inc. said it is considering pricing its Covid-19 vaccine in a range of $110 to $130 per
`dose in the U.S. when it shifts from government contracting to commercial distribution of the
`shots.
`
`The range is similar to the one Pfizer Inc. said in October it was considering for the Covid-19
`vaccine it developed with BioNTech SE.
`
`“I would think this type of pricing is consistent with the value” provided by the vaccine,
`Moderna Chief Executive Officer Stephane Bancel said in an interview Monday on the
`sidelines of the J.P. Morgan Healthcare Conference in San Francisco.
`
`The expected price for commercial insurers would be significantly higher than the per-dose
`cost in Moderna’s supply contracts with the federal government. Moderna’s updated booster

`shots cost about $26 per dose in a federal supply contract signed in July 2022. The original
`vaccine cost about $15 to $16 per dose in earlier supply contracts.
`
`To date, the federal government has purchased all doses of Covid-19 vaccines and made them
`available at no cost to consumers. U.S. officials have said that after the supply secured under
`federal contracts runs out, companies should switch to standard commercial distribution.
`
`Moderna is in discussions with hospital systems, pharmacies and pharmacy-benefit
`managers to line up distribution of its vaccine ahead of a potential fall booster shot campaign,
`Mr. Bancel said.
`
`Any booster shots distributed in the fall may be updated to match circulating variants of the
`coronavirus, Mr. Bancel said.
`
`Even at higher per-dose pricing, sales of Moderna’s Covid-19 vaccine are expected to decline.
`The Cambridge, Mass., company said Monday it expects minimum Covid-19 vaccine sales of
`about $5 billion for 2023, with the potential for more. For full-year 2022, it recorded about
`$18.4 billion in Covid-19 vaccine sales.
`
`The company is increasing its focus on potential new products beyond the Covid-19 vaccine,
`such as a vaccine for respiratory syncytial virus, or RSV. Moderna expects to report results
`from a large study for its RSV vaccine soon, Mr. Bancel said.
