Operating Expenses
During the first quarter of 2015, compared to the same period in 2014:
- Non-GAAP research and development (R&D) expenses increased primarily due to the continued progression and expansion of Gilead's clinical studies, particularly phase 3 studies in the liver disease and oncology areas.
- Non-GAAP selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses increased primarily due to growth in our business including commercial expansion for our hepatitis C virus (HCV) products.

Product & Pipeline Updates Announced by
Antiviral Program
-
Announced that the
Japanese Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare approved Sovaldi for the suppression of viremia in patients with genotype 2 chronic HCV infection with or without compensated cirrhosis. Sovaldi is indicated for use in combination with ribavirin (RBV) for 12 weeks. Sovaldi (in combination with RBV) is the first all-oral, interferon-free treatment regimen for genotype 2 HCV infection. -
Presentation of data at the 22nd Conference on Retroviruses and
Opportunistic Infections included announcement of:
- Positive results from a Phase 3 clinical trial evaluating the once-daily single tablet regimen Harvoni for the treatment of genotypes 1 or 4 chronic HCV infection among patients co-infected with HIV. In the trial, 96 percent of HCV patients achieved a sustained virologic response 12 weeks after completing therapy (SVR12). Patients who achieve SVR12 are considered cured of HCV infection.
- Positive 48-week results from two Phase 3 studies (Studies 104 and 111) evaluating an investigational once-daily single tablet regimen containing tenofovir alafenamide (TAF) for the treatment of HIV-1 infection in treatment-naïve adults. TAF is a novel nucleotide reverse transcriptase inhibitor that has demonstrated high antiviral efficacy at a dose 10 times lower than Gilead’s Viread, as well as improved renal and bone laboratory parameters, in clinical trials.
-
Positive results from a preclinical study conducted in
collaboration with researchers at
Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center evaluating a proprietary investigational oral TLR7 agonist and analogue of GS-9620 as part of an HIV eradication strategy. Data demonstrated that treatment with the TLR7 agonist induced transient plasma Simian Immunodeficiency Virus (SIV) RNA, as well as reduced SIV DNA in virally suppressed rhesus macaques given antiretroviral therapy (ART). In addition, the study found that after discontinuation of ART, SIV viral loads were lower among macaques that received the proprietary TLR7 agonist compared to the placebo group.

About Gilead
Non-GAAP Financial Information
Gilead has presented certain financial information in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) and also on a non-GAAP basis. Management believes this non-GAAP information is useful for investors, when considered in conjunction with Gilead's GAAP financial statements, because management uses such information internally for its operating, budgeting and financial planning purposes. Non-GAAP information is not prepared under a comprehensive set of accounting rules and should only be used to supplement an understanding of Gilead's operating results as reported under GAAP. A reconciliation between GAAP and non-GAAP financial information is provided in the tables on pages 6 and 7.

Statements included in this press release that are not historical in
nature are forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private
Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Gilead cautions readers that
forward-looking statements are subject to certain risks and
uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially.
These risks and uncertainties include: Gilead's ability to achieve its
anticipated full year 2015 financial results; Gilead's ability to
sustain growth in revenues for its antiviral and other programs;
availability of funding for state AIDS Drug Assistance Programs (ADAPs);
continued fluctuations in ADAP purchases driven by federal and state
grant cycles which may not mirror patient demand and may cause
fluctuations in Gilead's earnings; the possibility of unfavorable
results from clinical trials involving sofosbuvir-containing products,
tenofovir alafenamide, including in combination with other products, and
GS-9620; Gilead's ability to initiate clinical trials in its currently
anticipated timeframes; the levels of inventory held by wholesalers and
retailers which may cause fluctuations in Gilead's earnings; Gilead's
ability to submit new drug applications for new product candidates in
the timelines currently anticipated; Gilead's ability to receive
regulatory approvals in a timely manner or at all, for new and current
products, including fixed-dose combination of ledipasvir and sofosbuvir
