Full Year 2025 Financial Performance
Total revenues grew 2% to $29.4 billion. GAAP diluted EPS was $6.78, a significant increase from $0.38 in 2024, and non-GAAP diluted EPS rose to $8.15 from $4.62, driven by lower IPR&D expenses compared to the prior year.

auto_awesomeAnalysis
Gilead Sciences announced its fourth quarter and full year 2025 financial results, alongside its 2026 financial guidance. While the company reported a 5% increase in total revenues for Q4 2025 and a 2% increase for the full year, non-GAAP diluted EPS for Q4 2025 saw a slight decrease year-over-year, primarily due to higher acquired in-process research and development (IPR&D) expenses and an IPR&D impairment charge. Core HIV and Liver Disease product sales showed strong growth, driven by Biktarvy, Descovy, and Livdelzi. However, Veklury sales continued to decline significantly, and Cell Therapy product sales faced competitive headwinds. The company also provided updates on its pipeline, including positive Phase 3 results for an investigational HIV treatment and a label update for Yescarta, but also noted the discontinuation of two oncology studies (ASCENT-07 and STAR-221/EDGE-Gastric for domvanalimab). The 2026 guidance projects modest growth in product sales and non-GAAP EPS, reflecting a balanced outlook with both growth drivers and ongoing challenges.
