GILEAD SCIENCES, INC. · 2026-08-04 · Importance 90 · Surprise 100 · No source text
GAAP operating loss was $10.394 billion in the second quarter of 2026 versus operating income of $2.474 billion in the prior-year quarter, producing a negative 133.2% operating margin versus 34.9%. The loss primarily reflected $11.183 billion of acquired IPR&D expense and a $1.750 billion IPR&D impairment, alongside higher R&D and SG&A expenses. Non-GAAP operating loss was $7.329 billion versus operating income of $3.290 billion, and non-GAAP operating margin was negative 93.9% versus 46.5%. Higher revenue and lower income tax expense only partially offset the acquisition-related charges and higher operating expenses.
