Gilead Sciences IncFDA approval of Bixlenvo and upcoming approvals strengthen Gilead's pipeline and growth prospects.
Gilead Sciences has secured its third FDA approval in under four months, with the latest being Bixlenvo, a daily pill for virologically suppressed adults with HIV, approved on August 27. The company's shares have risen over 21% this year, nearly doubling the S&P 500's gain, yet it may still be undervalued. More approvals are anticipated, including anito-cel for multiple myeloma with a PDUFA date of December 23, and Yeztugo, a once-weekly oral PrEP, with a target date of February 2. Financially, Gilead reported $7.6 billion in Q2 revenue, up 8% year over year, and raised its dividend by 3.8% to $0.82 per share. For the first time in Q2, the company topped $1 billion in PrEP sales, up 101% year over year, driven by Descovy's $801 million in sales, a 60% increase. Despite concerns about HIV reliance, Gilead's gross margins remain above 80%, and its pipeline positions it for long-term growth.
