Second-quarter growth sets the baseline
Gilead's second-quarter total product sales reached USD 7.60 billion, an 8 percent year-over-year increase, according to the company's earnings call transcript carried by Yahoo on August 4, 2026. HIV sales rose 12 percent to USD 5.70 billion, while Trodelvy sales increased 26 percent to USD 457.00 million.
The quarter also changed the guidance framework. Gilead raised full-year HIV sales growth guidance to 9-10 percent from 8 percent, while full-year total product sales guidance stood at USD 30.10 billion to USD 30.40 billion.
What does October 29 mean for growth?
The next report will test whether the commercial momentum described in August carried into the third quarter. The PrEP business exceeded USD 1.00 billion in quarterly sales in the second quarter, and management cited a USD 4.00 billion annual run rate for the franchise.
Chronology gives investors three useful markers. On August 4, 2026, Gilead reported USD 7.60 billion in second-quarter total product sales and 12 percent HIV growth through Yahoo. On October 7, 2026, Truist Financial raised its target to USD 158.00, as reported by MarketBeat. On October 15, 2026, Gilead announced the October 29, 2026 reporting date through Yahoo.
