Exhibit 99.2 Press Release

 

Sinovac Receives Tender to Supply Seasonal Flu Vaccine in Beijing

 

BEIJING, September 14, 2015 -- Sinovac Biotech Ltd. (NASDAQ: SVA), a leading provider of biopharmaceutical products in China, today announced that it has been selected by the Beijing government to be a supplier of the seasonal influenza vaccine for its 2015 vaccination campaign.

 

The Beijing government plans to order a minimum of 1.2 million doses of the seasonal flu vaccine from four manufacturers for its 2015 campaign. The exact quantity of doses to be ordered will depend on demand during the flu season. During the 2014 campaign, a total of 1.37 million doses of the flu vaccine were administered, of which Sinovac supplied 400,000 doses. Sinovac expects to begin delivering vaccines for the 2015 tender in the third quarter of 2015.

 

Mr. Weidong Yin, Chairman, President and CEO of Sinovac, commented, "We are pleased to be selected once again by the Beijing government to supply seasonal flu vaccines for Beijing citizens. This vaccination campaign is an important step in protecting geriatric and school-age populations from influenza."

 

The Beijing government began purchasing seasonal flu vaccines in 2007 to prevent and control the spread of influenza among populations most susceptible to complications from the virus. Each year, the Beijing government evaluates potential suppliers on product quality, service and price, among other factors.
