Gilead earns revenue from prescription medicines, with a large portion coming from antiviral drugs. Over the last twelve months revenue was $30.5 billion, growing at 2.6% a year across the last three years. The operating margin is -8.2%, which means the business recorded an operating loss, and the return on the capital invested in it is -6%. The company pays a dividend with a yield of 2.1%.

StocksXray gives Gilead Sciences, Inc. an X-Ray Score of 45 out of 100 (high confidence), ahead of 32% of the S&P 500 stocks in its sector. Its strongest lens is valuation (55) and its weakest is profitability (38).

How to read this report

Every number comes from SEC filings, end-of-day prices and the StocksXray models described on the methodology page. The X-Ray Score ranks each metric against the company's own sector. Fair value blends three models and carries a typical error of about 40%, so treat it as a range. Analyst ratings, price targets and earnings-call summaries are not part of this report. Educational research, not financial advice; read the disclaimer.
