Gilead reported earnings on Thursday and it may be finally turning the corner. GILD was considered a one trick pony due to the success of its Hepatitis drugs, which unfortunately have starting to drop in revenue. That decline has been meet with a rising revenue stream from new HIV treatments, which tend to be longer term treatments than Hepatitis cases. As a result of recent acquisitions, Oncology is also a growing revenue stream with Yescarta more than doubling revenue to $96m in the first quarter. GILEAD also has a sizable cash at hand of $30 Billion along with a very strong balance sheet. Analysts have a overweight rating on the stock and a average price target of $81, we expect some upgrades in the days to come.
