Gilead Sciences is a biopharmaceutical company focused on developing and commercializing innovative medicines to treat life-threatening diseases, including HIV, viral hepatitis, and cancer. The company's primary revenue streams are from product sales, royalties, and collaborations, and it holds a significant market position due to its innovative medicines and strong R&D pipeline. Gilead operates in more than 35 countries worldwide.
Total revenues of $6.7 billion remained relatively flat for the three months ended March 31, 2025, compared to the same period in 2024. This was primarily due to lower Veklury and Oncology sales being mostly offset by higher HIV and Liver Disease sales.
Net income attributable to Gilead was $1.3 billion for the three months ended March 31, 2025, compared to a net loss of $4.2 billion for the same period in 2024. This increase was primarily due to a $3.9 billion acquired in-process research and development expense and a $2.4 billion impairment charge in 2024 that did not repeat in 2025.
The effective tax rate increased for the three months ended March 31, 2025, compared to the same period in 2024, primarily due to the non-deductible acquired IPR&D expense recorded in connection with the first quarter 2024 acquisition of CymaBay, partially offset by tax benefits from stock-based compensation.
