Good afternoon, everyone, and welcome to Gilead's third quarter 2025 earnings conference call. My name is Rebecca, and I'll be today's host. In a moment, we'll begin our prepared remarks, followed by our Q&A session. To ask a question, press star 1. To withdraw your question, press star 2. Now, I'll hand the call over to Jackie Ross, Senior Vice President of Treasury and Investor Relations.

Thank you, Rebecca. Just after market close today, we issued a press release with earnings results for the third quarter of 2025. The press release, slides, and supplementary data are available on the Investors section of our website at gilead.com. The speakers on today's call will be our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, Daniel O'Day, our Chief Commercial Officer, Joanna Mercier, our Chief Medical Officer, Dietmar Berger, and our Chief Financial Officer, Andrew Dickinson. After that, we'll open the call to Q&A, where the team will be joined by Cindy Peretti, the Executive Vice President of Kite. Let me remind you that we will be making forward-looking statements. Please refer to slide two regarding the risks and uncertainties relating to forward-looking statements that could cause actual results to differ materially. With that, I'll turn the call over to Dan.

Thank you, Jackie, and good afternoon, everyone. We appreciate you joining today as we take you through another very strong set of quarterly results. Our third quarter earnings underscore the growing momentum you're seeing from Gilead today, which is driven by our strong portfolio and the impressive execution of our teams. As you'll hear during the call, our progress is visible in both our quarterly results and in our strong clinical pipeline. Highlights of our third quarter include commercial outperformance across our HIV therapies and Livdelzi. This resulted in 6% year-over-year growth for Biktarvi, 20% year-over-year growth for Descovi, and 35% sequential growth for Livdelzi. Disciplined operating expense management contributed to 22% year-over-year growth in non-GAAP EPS. Even excluding a 25-cent benefit from a non-recurring accounting item, non-GAAP EPS grew 10% compared to 4% based business growth year-over-year, highlighting the leverage in our business model. As a reflection of our strong performance year-to-date, we are increasing our full-year HIV revenue growth expectations to approximately 5%. This is despite the $900 million headwind for our HIV business in 2025, associated with the Medicare Part D redesign. Our newest addition to the HIV portfolio, Yes2Go, for HIV prevention, delivered third quarter sales of $39 million or $54 million, including the first few weeks of launch in June. Of course, our initial priority has been securing payer coverage, and I'm very pleased to share that we've already achieved our 75% coverage goal, nearly three months ahead of our target. This sets a strong foundation for continued growth in 2026. Our confidence in our HIV business comes from both our existing on-market product leadership and our innovative pipeline. We look forward to sharing progress on one of our next-generation HIV treatments before the end of the year with an update on the Artistry 1 and Artistry 2 studies. These Phase 3 programs are evaluating an investigational single-tablet regimen of Bickegravir and Lenacapavir, and we continue to target a product launch in early 2027. As I mentioned, Livdelzee was a standout of the quarter, contributing to 12% year-over-year growth in our liver portfolio. Livdelzee exceeded $100 million in quarterly sales for the first time and is already the number one treatment for second-line PBC in the U.S. We're also pleased to share that we have filed for FDA approval of Bulavertide for the treatment of chronic hepatitis delta virus. This therapy has been available in Europe since 2020 under the brand name of Hepcludex, and we expect to bring it to patients in the U.S. in 2026. Turning to oncology, we continue to make significant clinical progress, most recently with the presentation of our Ascent O3 detailed data at ESMO and simultaneous publication in the New England Journal of Medicine. Given the particularly aggressive nature of this disease, we are moving as quickly as we can to bring Tredelvi to first-line metastatic triple-negative breast cancer patients. We have submitted SBLAs with the FDA and are targeting a potential commercial launch in 2026. that could extend Trodelvi's leadership in breast cancer. We also continue to target commercial launch for AnitaCell for multiple myeloma in 2026, and look forward to sharing an update from the pivotal Imagine One study before the end of this year. In summary, we are very pleased with our performance in the third quarter, building on a very strong 2025 overall, and just as importantly, we have significant potential ahead. The quality, breadth, and diversity we built into the portfolio over the past years is now presenting us with multiple opportunities to drive benefits for patients. With several just-launched or soon-to-be-launched products across HIV, oncology, and liver disease, and clinical readouts on the horizon with further commercial potential, this continues to be an exciting phase of growth. The fact that we now have no major LOEs until 2036 reinforces our strong position. My thanks as always to the Gilead team for their incredible work this quarter and their continued dedication to doing more for the communities we serve. With that, I'll hand it over to Joanna.

Thanks Dan and good afternoon everyone. I'm pleased to share our third quarter results representing another strong quarter of commercial execution, with exciting momentum in our most recently launched products, Yes2Go and LiveDelze, in addition to continued robust Biktarvi and Discovi growth. Starting on slide 7, third quarter product sales excluding Vicluri were $7.1 billion, up 4% year-over-year and up 2% sequentially, driven by strength across our HIV portfolio, offset in part by lower oncology revenue. Including veculary sales of $277 million, third quarter total product sales were $7.3 billion, up 4% sequentially and down 2% year over year, primarily reflecting lower veculary sales associated with fewer COVID-19-related hospitalizations. Moving to slide eight, HIV sales of $5.3 billion dollars represented four percent growth versus prior year and prior quarter primarily driven by higher demand and favorable inventory dynamics partially offset by lower average realized price year to date our hiv business has grown more than five percent which is particularly impressive as we managed through a 900 million dollar headwind for the full year related to the medicare part d redesign. Consistent with our performance year-to-date, we are increasing our guidance for full-year HIV revenue growth to approximately 5%, up from 3% last quarter. On slide 9, BICTARBI sales of $3.7 billion were up 6% year-over-year and 4% sequentially due to higher demand reflecting continued market growth of 2-3% and strong commercial execution. BICTARBI's year-over-year market share in the U.S. has grown every quarter since launch and achieved a record high of approximately 52% in the third quarter. Given Big Tarvey's clear differentiation and market leadership, we're pleased that the expected loss of exclusivity in the U.S. for Big Tarvey has been extended into 2036. Moving to Descovy, third quarter sales were a record $701 million, dollars, increasing 20% year-over-year, primarily due to higher demand for Descovy for PrEP. Sequentially, sales were up 7%, driven by higher demand and average realized price due to channel mix, partially offset by inventory dynamics. As a reminder, roughly three-quarters of Descovy sales are for HIV prevention. This highlights the incredible momentum in the prevention market driven by the growing awareness and increasing unrestricted access, as well as excellent commercial execution. Descovy for PrEP achieved a new record market share of more than 45% in the U.S. in the third quarter. This reflects the strengths of our PrEP team and the impact they're having in ensuring HIV PrEP reaches more of the people who could benefit from it. Overall, the PrEP market grew approximately 14% year over year. Moving to slide 10 and one quarter in, we're really excited with the initial positive reception to our Yes2Go launch across consumers, clinicians, and payers. Yes2Go is increasingly recognized in clinical guidelines, including most recently the U.S. This strong endorsement of Yes2Go offers healthcare providers, public health leaders, and communities clear guidance on an innovation that could help shift the trajectory of the HIV. epidemic. As we've discussed previously, expanding payer coverage is a critical indicator in our initial launch, and we're working with every payer to accelerate access. I'm thrilled that we have already achieved 75% access in the U.S., almost three months ahead of our target. This includes coverage by UnitedHealthcare and Express Scripts, as well as 20 of the top 25 state Medicaid plans. In most cases, payers do not require prior authorizations or co-pays. Keep in mind that much of our progress to the 75% access goal has been made in the last several weeks. We continue to work on an account-by-account basis to help clinicians navigate the new logistics and reimbursement process, and the benefits of this access will pull through in 2026. Looking forward, we're moving quickly to expand access beyond 75% and continue to target 90% by the end of the first half of 2026. Altogether, Yes2Go is off to a strong start, delivering $39 million in sales in the third quarter. From launch in the middle of June to the end of the third quarter, Yes2Go revenue was $54 million, including $15 million of new launch-related stocking at the end of the second quarter. As we expected, most early prescribers are existing HIV PrEP clinicians who are leveraging white bagging to simplify the logistic and reimbursement arrangements. In August, the European Commission approved lenacapivir for PrEP under the name IETUO. We look forward to further regulatory decisions across other geographies. Additionally, as part of our broader commitment to access, Gilead has agreed with the Global Fund and the U.S. State Department through PEPFAR to supply enough doses of lenocapivir for PrEP to reach up to 2 million people over three years in certain low- and lower-middle-income countries. Moving to liver disease on slide 11, sales of $819 million were up 12% year-over-year and 3% sequentially, driven almost entirely by Livdelzee for primary biliary cholangitis. LiveDelzy grew 35% sequentially, driven by strong commercial execution, including some new launches outside the U.S., and withdrawal of a competitor's product in the U.S. We are particularly pleased to see strong levels of persistence among users and believe LiveDelzy shows clear differentiation and value to those with PBC. LiveDelzy is now the market leader in second-line PBC in the U.S., and quarterly revenue topped $100 million for the first time. Moving to slide 12, Trudelby's sales of $357 million were up 7% year-over-year, primarily due to higher demand, and down 2% sequentially, with higher demand offset by unfavorable inventory dynamics and lower ex-US average realized price. Trudelby's continued strength in the US and international markets across metastatic breast cancer more than offset, on a year-over-year basis, the expected impact from the bladder cancer withdrawal in the U.S. With Tridelvy's potential launch in first-line metastatic TNBC following the potentially practice-changing AscentO3 and AscentO4 readouts this year, we look forward to expanding the options available for patients in this earlier-line setting. There are almost twice as many patients in the first-line metastatic setting compared to second-line, and patients typically have a longer duration of therapy. For cell therapy on slide 13, and on behalf of Cindy and the Kite team, third quarter sales of $432 million were down 11% both year-over-year and sequentially with continued competitive headwinds from in-and-out-of-class therapies. We anticipate these headwinds to continue in the near future. We remain committed to increasing the adoption and utilization of cell therapies given their curative potential for many patients. Year-to-date, we've added more than 40 authorized treatment centers and now have more than 570 globally. As shared in prior quarters, our efforts to lower the hurdles to community adoption are progressing, but it's clear that we have more to do before all eligible patients have the opportunity to benefit from these cell therapies. In addition to the team's work to expand the reach of cell therapies, KITE is also progressing its next-generation pipeline to offer similar efficacy with better safety, which would result in enhanced outpatient usage potential. Additionally, we're very excited by the development of AneedoCell, which continues to show potential best-in-class safety and efficacy as a BCMA CAR-T therapy for late-line relapsed refractory multiple myeloma. We look forward to providing an update from the Imagine One study later this year. Wrapping up our third quarter, I'd like to thank the commercial teams who are executing relentlessly across both our inline portfolio as well as our newer opportunities like Yastugo and Livdelzee.

Looking to 2026, we're preparing for a number of additional potential launches across our therapeutic areas of focus and are excited by the opportunity to extend our reach and impact on the patients and communities we serve and with that i'll hand the call over to dietmar thank you johanna and good afternoon everyone in the third quarter the team progressed 56 clinical programs across our three therapeutic focus areas with four additions since last quarter as we advance our research with the most meaningful potential scientific and patient impact into the clinic. Building on Johanna's comments on our Yes2Go launch, we continue to lead HIV innovation with 10 clinical programs across treatment and prevention. Lendacapivir and its prodrugs are foundational in our treatment and prevention programs, and in July, we initiated the registrational Phase 3 Purpose 365 trial, evaluating Lendacapivir as HIV prevention with once-yearly injections. This is a single-arm PK and safety study, which along with the unprecedented efficacy seen in the Phase III, Purpose I and II studies, is expected to support a regulatory filing with potential for approval in 2028. Moving to treatment, we have seven ongoing clinical programs evaluating daily, weekly, monthly, quarterly, and twice-yearly regimens based on lenacapivir or one of its prodrugs. Beginning with our next-generation daily oral regimen, BIC-LEN, we continue to expect an update from our Phase III Artistry studies later this year. Artistry I and Artistry II are evaluating the potential of Gilead's investigational complete regimen that combines Bictegravir, the key integrates inhibitor in Bictarvi, and lenacapavir, our breakthrough capsid inhibitor. The regimen is a potential option for virologically suppressed people with HIV, including many people currently on complex regimens. Further, we have a suite of long-acting oral and injectable agents in development for a range of dosing frequencies, from once-weekly oral to twice-yearly injectables. Our strategy has been to set up our pipeline for multiple shots on goal and then choose the best option for each dosing frequency. Notably, for our development of a twice-yearly treatment regimen combining a novel integrase inhibitor with lenacapavir, we took two INSTI agents to phase one, GS1219 and GS3242. Aligned with the guidance we shared at our HIV Analyst event last year, we have now chosen to prioritize the development of GS3242 over GS1219, and we expect to share more details on GS3242 at a virology conference in 2026. On slide 16, I'm pleased to highlight that we have completed the BLA filing for bulevertide in chronic hepatitis delta virus, or HDV. We're excited by the potential to bring bolivratide to HDV patients in the U.S., with a potential regulatory decision in 2026. As a reminder, HDV affects approximately 2% of patients with HBV, or about 40,000 people in the U.S. Patients with chronic untreated HDV infection can experience accelerated development of cirrhosis or severe scarring of the liver and have higher risk of liver cancer and potentially end-stage liver disease and failure. Beyond bulabritide, we are also evaluating next-generation approaches to HDV treatment. Specifically, we have advanced GS4321, a pre-S1 neutralizing antibody, into Phase I clinical development. We believe GS4321 has significant potential given its preclinical safety profile and long half-life with potentially quarterly subcutaneous dosing. Moving to Todelvi on Slide 17, earlier this month at the ESMO meeting, we presented detailed potentially practice-changing Phase III Ascent O3 data in first-line metastatic triple-negative breast cancer patients who are not candidates for PD-L1 inhibitors. Specifically, ProDelvy demonstrated a 9.7-month median progression-free survival compared to 6.9 months for standard-of-care chemotherapy. This reflects a statistically significant and clinically meaningful 38% reduction in disease progression or death versus standard-of-care chemotherapy. As we expected when we initiated the study, the median overall survival data are not yet mature. These results were simultaneously published in the New England Journal of Medicine. Additionally, the detailed results from ASCENT 04 were shared at the ESCO meeting in May. These data combined with ASCENT 03 highlight the potential for Trodelby to be a backbone treatment across first-line metastatic triple-negative breast cancer. Based on these positive phase 3 updates from ASCENT 03 and 04, we have submitted two supplemental biologics license applications for Trudelvi in first-line metastatic TNBC and expect regulatory decisions in 2026. This is incredibly important for patients as metastatic TNBC is the most aggressive subtype of breast cancer with limited treatment options and poor prognosis. Historically, progress in first-line therapy has been minimal and nearly half of patients do not progress beyond first-line treatment, meaning they may never access Trudelvi if it remains a later-line option. Similarly, we are currently exploring Trudelvi for first-line post-endocrine hormone receptor positive HER2 negative metastatic breast cancer patients in the Phase 3 Ascent 07 trial. We now expect to provide an update from this trial before the end of the year. On slide 18, we are highlighting overall survival results shared at ASMO earlier this month from arm A1 of the phase 2 edge gastric study evaluating domvenelimab, our FC silent anti-tigit, plus zimbrelimab and chemotherapy in patients with locally advanced unresectable or metastatic upper gastrointestinal cancers. In the 41 patients who received a novel regimen in this analysis, the median overall survival was 26.7 months. These findings were simultaneously published in Nature Medicine. These data are in a small number of patients. Survival results for this patient population still need to be confirmed in our ongoing phase 3 star 2 to 1 trial evaluating domvanelimab plus zimborelimab and chemotherapy in patients with metastatic upper gastrointestinal cancers. We continue to expect an update from the event-driven star 2 to 1 trial in 2026. We also continue to develop domvanelimab plus zimborelimab and chemotherapy in first-line metastatic non-smorcell lung cancer in the phase 3 star one-to-one trial. Moving to cell therapy on slide 19 and on behalf of Cindy and the Kite team, you can see that we have strengthened our in vivo capabilities. The in vivo cell therapies are potentially off-the-shelf products that could shorten the time it takes to treat patients and are also expected to have more simplified and cost-effective manufacturing processes. Given these potential advantages over autologous CAR-T, we believe InVivo could unlock broad access to cell therapies. With that in mind, we have welcomed the Interius team into the Kite family, adding a novel InVivo platform and a strong IP portfolio. We have also entered into a new research and licensing collaboration with PreGene Biopharma. It's early days for in vivo, but we're excited to accelerate our exploration of the opportunities these technologies could bring to patients. As we step up our investment in in vivo therapies, we remain committed to our current YesCarda and Tecarda's portfolios. For example, FDA recently granted priority review for YesCarda in primary CNS lymphoma with a PDUFA date in February 2026. Primary CNS lymphoma is a rare yet aggressive subtype of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma that affects the central nervous system. Additionally, CD19 CAR-T products, including Yaskarda, have recently received a Category 2A recommendation from the NCCN for Richter's transformation. We are pleased with these review and guideline decisions, which will provide HCPs with additional opportunities to prescribe Yaskarda. For our next-generation CAR-Ts, we look forward to sharing Phase I data from CHITE 753 and CHITE 363 in lymphoma at an upcoming medical congress later this year, as well as pivotal Phase II initiation of CHITE 753 for third-line large B-cell lymphoma in the first quarter of 2026. In autoimmune diseases, KITE363 is enrolling patients for its Phase I trial in rheumatology, and a Phase I study in neuroinflammatory conditions is expected to start in the first quarter of 2026. We look forward to providing updates from these earlier stage programs. Together with our partner, Arcelix, we plan to share additional follow-up data from the pivotal Imagine I trial of a needle cell at an upcoming medical meeting. We continue to believe a needle cell has the potential to offer a best-in-class efficacy and safety profile for patients with relapsed and or refractory multiple myeloma. The target commercial launch in 4th Line Plus relapsed and or refractory multiple myeloma remains in 2026. On slide 20, I will quickly highlight the key milestone updates. First, we have received European Commission marketing authorization of YEI-2O and remain on track to provide updates for our Phase III Artistry I and Artistry II trials for BIC-LEN and for our Pivotal Phase II Imagine I trial for Aneedocel in the fourth quarter. Finally, we now also expect Ascent 07 data in the fourth quarter. With that, I'll turn over the call to Andy.

Thank you, Dietmar, and good afternoon, everyone. Starting on slide 22, our third quarter results showed continued strong execution across the company. Our base business was up 4% year-over-year to $7.1 billion, driven by growth in Biktarvi, Discovi, and Libdelzi. Beclari sales were down 60% year-over-year to $277 million, which continued to reflect fewer COVID-related hospitalizations. including veclory sales total product sales were 7.3 billion dollars moving to slide 23 you can see we benefited from a 400 million dollar contribution in royalty contract and other revenues in the third quarter this relates to an ip asset sale from 2018. given we are now able to reasonably estimate future royalty and milestone payments we are required to recognize this revenue in the third quarter This is a non-recurring accounting item and does not reflect cash received during the quarter. As a reminder, this contribution was not part of our product sales and therefore did not impact our product gross margin in the third quarter, but it does otherwise flow through to the bottom line, contributing approximately $0.25 after tax. moving to our non-GAAP results on slide 24 third quarter product gross margin was 86 percent in line with 87 percent in the third quarter of 2024 r&d expenses of 1.3 billion dollars were down three percent compared to the third quarter of 2024 year-to-date 2025 r&d expenses were 4.1 billion dollars in line with 2024 suggesting we are on track for our full year goal Acquired IPR&D expenses were $170 million in the third quarter, including a $120 million upfront payment to pre-gene for a research and licensing collaboration in the in vivo cell therapy space. SG&A expenses of $1.4 billion were down 4% compared to the third quarter of 2024, modestly lower than we expected due to the timing of spending. Third quarter operating margin was 50%, reflecting the continued focus on operating expense discipline and leverage. The non-GAAP effective tax rate was 18% this quarter, slightly below our expectations due to a $79 million tax settlement. And finally, non-GAAP diluted EPS was $2.47 for the quarter. Excluding the $400 million non-recurring other revenue, non-GAAP diluted EPS would have been $2.22 for the third quarter. Moving to our full year guidance on slide 25, we are raising the low end of our product sales range by $100 million to reflect our strong performance year to date. As a reminder, the $400 million included in our royalty, contracts, and other revenue in the third quarter does not impact our full year guidance, as we do not guide to total revenue. We now expect total product sales, excluding Veclurie, to be between $27.4 billion and $27.7 billion, primarily reflecting higher HIV growth. Driven by the outperformance of both BICTARVI and Descovy year-to-date, we now anticipate our HIV franchise will grow approximately 5% year-over-year versus our prior guidance of 3%. Consistent with last quarter, I'll note that our assumptions for the impact of the Medicare Part D redesign remain unchanged from the beginning of the year, and we continue to expect approximately $900 million of impact to our HIV business in 2025. Our 2025 assumptions for Yaz Tugo also remain unchanged, and we remain very encouraged by the launch so far, particularly the accelerated timeline for payer coverage. In other parts of our business, strength in HIV is expected to be partially offset by weaker cell therapy estimates, where we now forecast approximately a 10% decline for full year 2025 versus full year 2024. For Vecluri, we continue to expect full year revenue of approximately $1 billion. As a result, total product sales are anticipated to be in the range of $28.4 to $28.7 billion. dollars. As noted earlier, this reflects a $100 million increase at the low end of the range from our previous guidance. Finally, we continue to expect the impact of known tariffs to be manageable in 2025. Moving to the rest of the P&L, there is no change to our prior non-GAAP guidance for product gross margin, R&D, and SG&A expenses. We continue to expect product gross margin of approximately 86 percent, R&D expenses to be roughly flat on a dollar basis from 2024, and SG&A expenses to decline by a mid- to high single-digit percentage compared to 2024. Similar to last year, we expect a step up in both R&D and SG&A expenses in the fourth quarter, reflecting normal end-of-year trends. We have updated our IPR&D expectations for the full year to reflect our actuals through the third quarter and our known fourth quarter commitments, including $300 million relating to the interiors acquisition. We now expect full-year acquired IPR&D to be $900 million. Rounding out the P&L, we expect operating income to be between $13.1 billion and $13.4 billion, reflecting an increase of $100 million at the low end of the prior guidance range. We continue to expect our effective tax rate to be approximately 19%. And finally, we expect non-GAAP EPS in the range of $8.05 and $8.25, raising non-GAAP EPS by 10 cents at the low end of the range. GAAP EPS is expected to be in the range of $6.65 to $6.85. On slide 26, our capital priorities remain unchanged, and we returned $1.4 billion to shareholders in the third quarter, which included $435 million of share repurchases. These repurchases are intended to offset equity dilution at a minimum, but can also be used opportunistically, as you've seen in the first three quarters of 2025. Overall, we are pleased with the strong performance this quarter, highlighted by our clinical and commercial execution, and supported by our disciplined operating model. We continue to be well positioned for near-term and long-term growth, and we remain focused on delivering on our strategic commitments. With that, I'll invite Rebecca to begin the Q&A.

Rebecca Stephens- Thank you, Andy. At this time, we'll invite your questions. please be courteous and limit yourself to one question so we can get to as many analysts as possible during today's call again to ask a question press star one and to withdraw your question press star two first question comes from jeff meachin at citigroup jeff go ahead your line is open oh great okay uh hey guys thanks so much for the question congrats on the quarter um on yes to go you know i know it's early i wanted to see if you had any color on patients switching from the SCOBY versus those that were brand new to prep?

And then related, but just looking to the balance of the year, are there any demand drivers that could give you some momentum going into 2026? Thank you.

Thanks, Jeff, and welcome. I'll hand it right over to Joanna.

Thanks, Jeff. Yeah, so we're really excited about the launch so far and really much in line with our expectations of an injectable into an oral market. To your point about where the Yes2Go sourcing is coming from, it's really across the board. So it's more switches, as you'd expect, in this marketplace versus Naive, but really across the switches, what we're really pleased to see is that we're getting the source of business is actually coming from the long-acting injectable currently on the market, also the oral branded, such as Discovy, but also oral generics. And so you're seeing a real nice balance mix across the board for switches, and we expect that to continue. And, of course, as the market grows and continues to grow and the awareness of yes-to-go increases, we also believe that the naive patient population will also grow with time as well.

Our next question comes from Umur Rafat. Umur, go ahead. Your line is open.

Thank you, guys. Quick question. I noticed a $39 million sales number in 3Q. And I'm trying to make sense of it. By my rough math, it sounds like about 3,000 patients initiated in 3Q. Is that consistent with how you see it? And I ask because IMS was implying something like 2,300 patients. So I'm just trying to get a sense of it all. Thank you.

Thanks, Sumer, for the question. Maybe I'll give a little bit more context to Yesdugo in light of your question. And not that we've been sharing patience per se, but we do have year-to-date as of the Q3 quarter, about $54 million in sales. Some of that was in late June for inventory purposes, about $15 million of that. And we've really seen that inventory flow through, so there's really no more stocking left in the system. We've been tracking a lot of different indicators to make sure that our launch is on the right track. And so we're really excited because we see the access piece as one of the most important indicators for the future and meeting the 75% coverage for access almost three months ahead of schedule with very limited prior off and basically zero copays, it really sets us up nicely, actually, as you think about 2026 and beyond. The UnitedHealth, ESI, many other commercial plans are on board. We have about 20 out of the 25 large PrEP states for Medicaid. That represents just over 80% of the PrEP Medicaid So, that's really been our focus, and of course, the J code coming on as of October 1st. All of this would support buying bill modeling as well. And so, these access wins are recent, and obviously, it's going to take a little bit of time, account by account, to pull it through and integrate it within the practices, but I think it really provides that platform for us to accelerate the uptake for Yes2Go. We've also seen conversion rates, basically from script to approval, really dropped dramatically, And so we continue to focus on the logistics to make sure we get the drug and the patient schedules aligned shortly after the reimbursement approval. And so I would say, you know, from an overall standpoint, super pleased about what we track are the intakes, the access, HCP awareness and interest, the conversion rates that I just referred to, and everything is going in the right direction. So we do expect full year Yes2Go sales of around $150 million or so, including the $54 million year today. So hopefully that gives you a bit of perspective, and then as you get the full year, you can have a better understanding of patient numbers.

Our next question comes from Mohit Bansal. Mohit, go ahead. Your line is open.

Great. Thank you very much for taking my question, and congrats on all the progress. Switching a little bit to HIV treatment, now that you're guiding for 5% year-over-year growth, combine that with the $900 million of party redesign impact you're taking, does seem like HIV is growing at, what, 9% to 10%. I mean, can you talk a little bit about that? How should you think about it going forward, given that you have had such an impressive growth this year?

Thanks, Mohit, for that. I do agree with you. I think we've had such an impressive growth, and it's really driven by a couple of things. It's driven by the market, both in treatment and in PrEP, and real demand-driven growth, specifically Biktar V, Dyscovy, are really the ones that are impacting this year's growth. So as you think about Biktar V growing year-on-year about 6% on this, and this, to your point, is despite Part D redesign, and those assumptions have not changed, and Biktar V growing at 6 points, but also Dyscovy growing, at about 20%. And if you think about just for PrEP, if you think about the three quarters of that product being driven by prevention, you're looking at almost over 30% growth for Dyscovy, let alone if you think about HIV prevention at Gilead, it's over 40%. So both HIV treatment and HIV prevention are really driving the growth. And you could assume that actually, if Part D we designed hadn't played out, we would probably be around the numbers you were talking about, 8% to 9%.

Our next question comes from Salveen Richter at Goldman Sachs. Salveen, go ahead. Your line is open.

Good afternoon. Thanks for taking my question. Could you just comment on the inventory impact for you, Stugo, in the third quarter and also how the CVS pricing discussions are progressing? Thank you.

Sure, Salveen. It's Joanne again. A couple of things. One is, in the Q3, there's really no inventory buy-in. It really happened in the first two weeks, the last two weeks of June, sorry, the first two weeks of our launch, and that really got pulled through in the first months of Q3. And then what you're seeing in the 39 is really true demand coming through. So that's the inventory piece of the puzzle. From a CDS access standpoint, you know, payers all have different timelines as to how they make formulary decisions. And we're working with every single one of the payers to make sure we go as quickly as possible to secure access, while also ensuring that the innovative value of Yes2Go gets recognized. And so our discussions with the remaining 25% of payers, including CDS, are ongoing. And we're very confident about our ability to reach the goals that we've set forth, which is the 90% at the first year of launch. So we're very confident that we're on track to reach those numbers.

Our next question comes from Evan Siegerman at BMO Capital Markets. Evan, go ahead. Your line is open.

Thank you so much for taking my question. Livdelzig continues to perform exceptionally well and appears to be succeeding as a clear strategic fit to your business. Can you just talk to me about the level of appetite for additional BD and liver-focused indications such as MASH?

Andy, why don't you start there? Hi, Evan. Thanks for the question. Look, I mean, as we've said, we don't comment specifically on any subsectors. We are looking actively at opportunities across the VD spectrum in all of our areas of strategic interest. That includes liver disease as well as oncology, cell therapy broadly, virology, and immunology. And we've said consistently and continue to believe that, you know, we would like to add more therapies just like Liv Delsey that are, you know, best-in-class therapies that serve patients in need on a regular basis. And we would look for those, you know, late-stage de-risked assets every two to three years at a minimum to kind of add them to our portfolio. So we're, you know, when you step back, I think we are really pleased with the size and shape of our portfolio, all of the growth drivers that we have, the additional launches is that you heard Dietmar talk about in his prepared remarks, and we would like to add growth, additional growth drivers, and of course, we'll be disciplined in doing that. But yes, you should expect that we're going to be looking at deals across all of our sectors, including liver disease.

Our next question comes from Chris Schott at JPMorgan. Chris, go ahead. Your line is open.

Great. Thanks so much. Can I just dig into Yes2Go and 4Q and heading into 26 in a little bit more detail? I mean, it seems like you're pointing to a step up in next quarter, but we're getting obviously a lot of coverage. I'm just trying to understand it's kind of like a gradual acceleration or a bigger step function as we move into 2026. I'm just trying to get, again, a little bit more. Thanks so much.

So Chris, this is Joanna. I think that's a fair question. I think what we're seeing is a lot of the access to get us to the 75% goal most recently really happened in the last couple of weeks. And so, it's important to understand that it, you know, those don't turn on, you know, just overnight. And so, practices need to actually integrate these changes into their working practices. And so, we're working with them to make sure that happens. Same thing goes for the J code. Some people will update right away. Some people update biannually. And so, January 1st could be kind of, for some, that update to really help the buy and bill folks that are interested in buy and bill. So we do believe it's going to be a gradual ramp up. And then for us, it really sets up the platform for the ramp for Yes2Go in 2026. And so that's what we're kind of focusing on.

Our next question comes from James Shin at Deutsche Bank. James, go ahead. Your line is open.

Hi, thank you for the question.

Joanna, could you just give us an update on Yes2Go's buy and bill and white bagging mix and those reaching this 75 percent ahead of schedule equate to reaching a bigger portion of white bagging sooner thank you sure um so the the white bagging and the buying bill you'd expect and if you remember at our hiv day in 2024 we did kind of share that would be heavier um to the white bagging and um and buy and bill would build over time and that's exactly what we're seeing um so much more in this you know coming through the scripts are going to specialty pharmacy going through that process and then white backing back to the clinic um probably more towards about three-quarter range in the 70 to 80 percent and then the rest of that is buying bill that's not steady state obviously and that's going to change over time as people get more comfortable and get in and as they integrate the j code as well into their practice so all of those things will evolve, but for right now that's what we're seeing.

Our next question comes from Dana Grebosch at Lee Rink Partners. Dana, go ahead, your line is.

Thank you. Another one on Yostugo, I mean you've said several times that in the 75 percent covered lives you've been pleased by the level of restriction. I wonder if you could give us a little more detail to how much of the lives have prior offs or copay or any other restrictions like to certain types of practices, for instance?

So what we're seeing thus far, and it's still early, right, because we're trying to see how this all plays out, but most of the plans so far have added yes to go to their formal area with zero co-pays. So high 80s, if you're looking for a number, and a very few step edits in prior office. And if they are, they're very simple. And so we do think it's really important. It's one thing to have access. The quality of the access is also very important for us. And to make sure that the people who may want or need PrEP can have access to it. And that's very much in line. I mean, those goals were set because of Descovy. And Descovy, as of September, access is at about 99% of lives covered with about 88% unrestriction, no restrictions. And so that gives you a little bit of a flavor of kind of the direction of where Yastugo is going. Not there yet, but definitely well on its way.

Our next question comes from Brian Abrams at RBC Capital Markets. Brian, go ahead. Your line is open.

Hi there. Thanks so much for taking my question. Maybe just another one on Yastugo. Joanna, can you maybe talk a bigger picture about what the patient journey is like here for getting an appointment with a physician, obtaining and getting Yastugo administered? Maybe how that's comparing to your expectations, how that could evolve, and really just wondering like what are the biggest barriers for a patient wanting to switch to do so?

Yeah, sure, Brian, happy to do so. And they're changing, right? So I'm going to share with you kind of where we're at, but it's been an evolution even from July on. We're seeing a big difference in the time it takes from prescriptions. So as a physician writes a prescription for someone for Yes2Go, and the prescription goes to specialty pharmacy, for example, and goes through the process, I mean, the approval process used to take over a month, and so it could take four or five, six weeks. Now, it's more than half down from that timeframe because the access is starting to play in. But then you also have the piece that you just said, which is then how do you make sure that the logistics play out where you get the approval and make sure that the drug gets to the office at the same time as the patient gets back into the office as well. And so that obviously can take, you know, a week or two, sometimes more depending on the patient's availability and the doctor's availability, of course. And so that's kind of what we're playing out. So that is definitely something that was part of our assumption. But those conversion rates, both from prescription to approval, but approval to office to injection, because that's really when it gets shipped is when it gets captured by IQVIA, for example. That's really what we've been tracking to make sure we minimize that time and support the offices in the logistics of doing so. So we're seeing benefits every single month and seeing those numbers come down. And obviously, as people get more in tune with the practice, it's going to get easier. On the flip side, I would say buy and bill is, you know, obviously it cuts out one piece of that because then it's directly within the doctor's office. They get approval, they get product, and then they can kind of start, as buy and bill builds, you're going to see a little bit faster turnaround there as well. Hopefully that helps give you a little bit of a picture of the patient's journey.

Our next question comes from Carter Gould at Cancer Fitzgerald. Carter, go ahead. Your line is open.

Great. Thank you. Good afternoon. Thanks for taking the question. I hope you'll indulge me on a relatively short-term-minded question here on ES2Go, but we've seen pretty volatile scripts over here the past couple weeks. And I guess my question is, are the TRX that we're seeing reflective of what you're seeing? Is that impacted by third-party prep campaigns or more standard demand growth or early impacts from the JCO? Any color would be appreciated.

There's a lot of week-to-week variability with IQVIA versus what we're seeing. Obviously, we track as well. And it really depends on the reports that you're looking at within IQVIA as well. I think it's going to take a couple of quarters for this to stabilize a little bit. I think it's a good directional indicator. And depending on the reports, just make sure you're looking at both, you know, the SP intakes, but also the buy-in bill and kind of merging those two pieces together. Those two pieces together, although sometimes accounts are missing, directionally are in line with the overall of what we're seeing, but the volatility with IQVI is definitely real right now, and I think it's going to take a little while to settle. We've seen that before with other products as well.

Our next question comes from Terrence Flynn at Morgan Stanley. Terrence, go ahead. your line is open.

Thanks for taking the questions. Congrats on the quarter. Joanna, just wondering if you can comment at all high level about, you know, how we should think about overall prep market growth. Obviously, it's been very strong the last couple quarters, 14 percent this quarter, 15 percent last quarter. Is that kind of the level we should think about at a franchise for you guys as we head into 2026? Thank you.

Sure, Terrence. I think that's the right way think about i think 14 15 is the right approach for this market growth um this is obviously fueled by may you know um by many of us to make sure that um there's increased awareness of the options within prep and i think that'll continue to be fueled as the noise kind of increases as we go into 2026 with whether it's through social media or um direct consumer advertising and so i i would I would assume about a 14-15% growth continuing with PREP.

Our next question comes from Tyler Van Buren at TD Cowen. Tyler, go ahead. Your line is open.

Congratulations on the good quarterly results. So, for AnitaCell, could the filing happen any day or in the very near future? What is left that's required for the filing? And we're excited for the data at ASH. So, should the expectation be similar efficacy to Carvicti with improved safety, or do you believe there's still room to improve on efficacy?

Tyler, we'll hand it over to Cindy to give Joanna a break.

So, with AnitaCell, we haven't communicated what our filing dates are, nor will we, but what we have communicated is that we're very much looking forward to a launch second half of next year, and we're definitely on track for that. As Dan spoke to and Dietmar earlier, we will be sharing a data cut of AnitaCell at ASHE, and I would say we're looking forward to sharing that data with everyone, and you were asking particularly about similar efficacy and improved safety. We continue to be impressed with the safety we're seeing similar to what we shared at EHA, and we look forward to sharing that data cut at ASHE.

Our next question comes from Simon Baker at Rothschild & Co. Simon, go ahead. Your line is open.

Thanks for taking the question. And sorry, back to Joanna after that very short break. Back on Yes2Go, I just wondered if you could give us some of your feedback on the patient and physician experience and reaction to Yes2Go. Obviously, your competitor has been suggesting a preference for their product over yours, but I'd be intrigued to hear what you're actually experiencing on the ground. Thanks so much.

Absolutely. Happy to do so. So, listen, as we look at, I think you're referring to any ISRs or any injection site reactions, which is kind of normal when you have an injectable, and so that is common with any injection. Having said that, we've done a really nice job, I think, making sure that we educated not only the HCPs, but obviously everybody in their practice to make sure that they know how to give the injection, they know how to pre and post treat, you know, basically just a short-term ice helps the whole situation. And so we've had over 7,000 HCPs that have been trained over 1,500 accounts to date with 98% satisfaction rate with their training. And so this is led by our nurse educator team basically across the board, across the country, making sure we get to every single clinic. And I think that's been incredibly helpful for those that want to use Yes2Go. So we really believe that if just with a little bit of information, it can go a long way to make sure that patient and HCP experience is very smooth.

Our next question comes from Courtney Breen at Bernstein. Courtney, go ahead. Your line is open.

Thank you so much for taking the time for our question today. I want to, I guess, zoom out a little bit to the White House deals and drug pricing, but particularly in the context of your HIV portfolio and higher Medicaid exposure. Obviously, this year you've dealt with the Part D redesign and have grown through that. As you're looking at potential flexibility and any sort of deal with this administration on drug pricing, can you give any context to kind of the scale that you're preparing for or your actions or flexibility that you're looking to garner in a deal that might ensure that that impact is less than what you're experiencing with the Part D redesign this year.

Thanks, Courtney. This is Dan. I'll take that one as well. And thank you for the question. So I think it's important to note that we continue to have really ongoing, good, constructive engagements with the administration across the administration on a number of topics. And I would say a couple of things that, you know, So every meeting that I and the team are in, I think the administration has been very clear that they want the U.S. to remain a leading innovator in the space, in the biotech-pharma space, and at the same time addressing the issues relative to U.S. out-of-pocket patient costs and having countries outside the U.S. do more to appropriately value innovation. Those are the principles that address our conversations. And I think we're making very, very good progress. Relative to, you know, any Gilead-specific information, I can only point to that that's publicly disclosed, but I would say that, you know, recently we had, as a part of an example of this constructive dialogue, we had an announcement with the U.S. State Department related to PEPFAR and our partnership to bring Lenin-Capavir to low and low and middle-income countries. So I think this concept of Gilead's unique role in ending epidemics globally, connecting with administration objectives, whether that be national defense, whether that be ending epidemics, is something that I think has been very much appreciated by the administration and continues to be a cornerstone in our conversations. So, and then I would just lastly, just to remind Courtney, things we've said in the past, but I would remind you that as we have broader conversations with the agency that, I'm sorry, with the administration, you know, again, the vast majority of our IP is in the United States. As such, you know, tariffs as related to transfer pricing may have more of a limited impact on Gilead versus our peers. We recognize, you know, more than 80 percent of our IP in the United States, 90 percent of our taxes are paid here. We have a strong footprint in the United States. We have almost 100 percent of our R&D capital infrastructure here. We've committed to significant additional investments in the United States of the magnitude of 32 billion. So, these conversations are wide, and I think that, you know, we will continue to update you as we have different aspects, just like we did with the State Department. But I'd say we feel very good about the constructive nature of them and where they're going.

Our last question comes from Joseph Stringer at Needham. Joey, go ahead. Your line is open.

Hi, thanks for taking our questions. Question on Cludex for HDB. You put a lot of effort into getting that resubmitted since the CRL. So I guess, one, what gives you confidence that you'll get approval from FDA this time around? And two, what do you think the market opportunity for the drug is in HDB? Just keeping in mind that there are two competitors in phase three development.

So we'll start with Dietmar.

Welcome, Dietmar. Giving you another quick break. Yeah, so thank you for the question. I mean, we're not, of course, commenting in depth on the regulatory strategy. But different factors give us confidence. One, we have additional data with regards to, you know, how is the medicine injected? What's the experience also that patients would have with the injection? And also we have really the experience from Europe where the drug is used now for some time. And that gives us additional data from the real world setting that we can also utilize. So overall, these additional data sets, plus then further work on the filing for the U.S., gives us the confidence that we can move forward here.

Yeah, so maybe I'll just close and talk about the market opportunity. It kind of goes back to the comment that was made earlier about the strategic fit with LivDelze and how perfect it is. This is kind of the same with Hepaclutex. This is obviously these are people that have hepatitis B and it's very small percentage. It is rare disease. Small percentage of these hep B patients have also hep D but a much unfortunately worsening with liver cirrhosis and potentially even liver cancers and death. And so therefore important to get to these patients as quickly as possible. And so we do believe that because of our footprint in Hep B, it's a really good fit for us to make a difference for these patients across the board. So, much smaller, but again, a little change in our footprint overall. So, I think that's why we think Hep Cludex is important, let alone the unmet need that is out there because there's nothing else out there today.

That completes the time that we have for questions. I'll now invite Dan to share any closing remarks.

Terrific. So, let me, first of all, thank all of you for joining today. we really appreciate your interest and time. I also would be remiss not to thank the Gilead teams for another great quarter in our growth journey here. And as you've seen, I just want to point this out, you know, strong commercial and clinical execution along with discipline, expense management in a consistent way, quarter to quarter is what you have seen from us and what you should continue to expect from us. We believe we're very well positioned as we go into 2026, not only with the current and upcoming product launches that we have today that have been spoken about a lot today, but also the strong clinical pipeline. And I just want to point out we have some important readouts coming up in oncology and HIV in this quarter and into next year. And just would remind you again that really we're in a relatively unique position with no patent expiries before 2036. So for that, I'd like to again thank you for your time today. Jackie and team, as usual are here to follow up with you on any of the questions that you have please don't hesitate to reach out and I wish you all a good rest of your day thank you
