Total revenues for the first quarter of 2010 were $2.09 billion, up 36 percent compared to total revenues of $1.53 billion for the first quarter of 2009. Net income for the first quarter of 2010 was $854.9 million, or $0.92 per diluted share, compared to net income for the first quarter of 2009 of $589.1 million, or $0.63 per diluted share.

Product Sales
Product sales increased 24 percent to $1.79 billion for the first quarter of 2010, compared to $1.45 billion in the first quarter of 2009. This increase in sales was driven primarily by Gilead's antiviral franchise, including the strong growth in sales of Atripla(R) (efavirenz 600 mg/ emtricitabine 200 mg/ tenofovir disoproxil fumarate 300 mg) and continued growth in sales of Truvada(R) (emtricitabine/tenofovir disoproxil fumarate), as well as the addition of Ranexa(R) (ranolazine) to Gilead's commercial portfolio. Product sales were reduced by $29.4 million in the first quarter of 2010 due to the impact of healthcare reform legislation in the United States.
Antiviral Franchise
Antiviral product sales increased 19 percent to $1.60 billion in the first quarter of 2010, up from $1.34 billion for the same quarter of 2009. The increase was driven primarily by sales volume growth of Atripla and Truvada.
- Atripla
Sales of Atripla for the treatment of HIV infection increased 36 percent to $692.9 million for the first quarter of 2010, up from $509.9 million in the first quarter of 2009, driven primarily by sales volume growth in the United States and Europe.
- Truvada
Sales of Truvada for the treatment of HIV infection increased 11 percent to $657.8 million for the first quarter of 2010, up from $590.4 million in the first quarter of 2009, driven primarily by sales volume growth in the United States and Europe.
- Viread
Sales of Viread(R) (tenofovir disoproxil fumarate) for the treatment of HIV infection and chronic hepatitis B increased 13 percent to $180.7 million for the first quarter of 2010, up from $160.6 million in the first quarter of 2009, driven primarily by sales volume growth of Viread in a majority of our markets.
Letairis
Sales of Letairis(R) (ambrisentan) for the treatment of pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) increased 40 percent to $55.5 million for the first quarter of 2010, up from $39.6 million for the first quarter of 2009, driven primarily by sales volume growth in the United States.
Ranexa
Sales of Ranexa for the treatment of chronic angina were $51.2 million for the first quarter of 2010. There were no Ranexa sales in the first quarter of 2009 as Gilead acquired CV Therapeutics, Inc. on April 15, 2009.
Other Products
Sales of AmBisome(R) (amphotericin B liposome for injection) for the treatment of severe fungal infections, Hepsera(R) (adefovir dipivoxil) for the treatment of chronic hepatitis B, Emtriva(R) (emtricitabine) for the treatment of HIV infection and other products were $150.0 million for the first quarter of 2010 compared to $147.2 million for the first quarter of 2009. Sales of Cayston(R) (aztreonam for inhalation solution) as a treatment for the improvement of respiratory symptoms in cystic fibrosis patients with Pseudomonas aeruginosa (P. aeruginosa), included in other products, were $2.9 million during the first quarter of 2010 subsequent to the marketing approval granted by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in February 2010.
Royalty, Contract and Other Revenues
Royalty, contract and other revenues resulting primarily from collaborations with corporate partners were $297.8 million in the first quarter of 2010, up from $82.9 million in the first quarter of 2009. This increase was driven primarily by higher Tamiflu(R) (oseltamivir phosphate) royalties from F. Hoffmann-La Roche Ltd of $246.3 million in the first quarter of 2010, compared to Tamiflu royalties of $33.2 million in the first quarter of 2009, resulting from increased sales related to influenza pandemic planning initiatives worldwide.
Research and Development
Research and development (R&D) expenses in the first quarter of 2010 were $218.7 million, compared to $188.8 million for the first quarter of 2009. Non-GAAP R&D expenses for the first quarter of 2010, which exclude restructuring and stock-based compensation expenses, were $196.5 million compared to $171.8 million for the first quarter of 2009, which exclude stock-based compensation expenses. This increase was driven primarily by higher headcount and expenses to support the growth of Gilead's R&D activities.
Selling, General and Administrative
Selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses in the first quarter of 2010 were $265.6 million, compared to $204.0 million for the first quarter of 2009. Non-GAAP SG&A expenses for the first quarter of 2010, which exclude restructuring and stock-based compensation expenses, were $229.1 million, compared to $183.1 million for the same quarter in 2009, which exclude stock-based compensation expenses. This increase was driven primarily by higher headcount and expenses to support Gilead's expanding commercial activities.
Net Foreign Currency Exchange Impact
The net foreign currency exchange impact on first quarter 2010 revenues and pre-tax earnings, which includes revenues and expenses generated from outside the United States, was a favorable $1.7 million and $11.0 million, respectively, compared to the first quarter of 2009, and an unfavorable $22.7 million and $17.2 million, respectively, compared to the fourth quarter of 2009.
Cash, Cash Equivalents and Marketable Securities
As of March 31, 2010, Gilead had cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities of $4.62 billion compared to $3.90 billion as of December 31, 2009. Gilead generated $670.6 million of operating cash flow in the first quarter of 2010.

Non-GAAP Financial Information
Gilead has presented certain financial information in accordance with GAAP and also on a non-GAAP basis for the first quarter of 2010 and 2009. Management believes this non-GAAP information is useful for investors, taken 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 U.S. GAAP. A reconciliation between GAAP and non-GAAP financial information is provided in the table on page 6.
Forward-looking Statements
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 sustain growth in revenues for its antiviral and cardiovascular franchises; unpredictable variability of Tamiflu royalties and the strong relationship between this royalty revenue and global pandemic planning and supply; Gilead's ability to receive regulatory approvals in a timely manner or at all, for new and current products, including its investigational fixed-dose single-tablet (Quad) regimen of elvitegravir, cobicistat (formerly GS 9350) and Truvada for the treatment of HIV infection and cobicistat as a boosting agent for certain HIV medicines and other antivirals; Gilead's ability to successfully commercialize any products that may receive regulatory approvals, including Cayston as a treatment for the improvement of respiratory symptoms in cystic fibrosis patients with P. aeruginosa; Gilead's ability to successfully develop its respiratory and cardiovascular franchises; initiating and completing clinical trials may take longer or cost more than expected, including in the clinical study evaluating the Quad and cobicistat as a boosting agent; fluctuations in the foreign exchange rate of the U.S. dollar that may reduce or eliminate the favorable foreign currency exchange impact on Gilead's future revenues and pre-tax earnings; our ability to consummate the $1.00 billion share repurchase program due to changes in our stock price, corporate or other market conditions; and other risks identified from time to time in Gilead's reports filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. In addition, Gilead makes estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses and related disclosures. Gilead bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other market-specific and other relevant assumptions that it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ significantly from these estimates. You are urged to consider statements that include the words "may," "will," "would," "could," "should," "might," "believes," "estimates," "projects," "potential," "expects," "plans," "anticipates," "intends," "continues," "forecast," "designed," "goal," or the negative of those words or other comparable words to be uncertain and forward-looking. Gilead directs readers to its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009, subsequent press releases and other publicly filed SEC disclosure documents. Gilead claims the protection of the Safe Harbor contained in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 for forward-looking statements. All forward-looking statements are based on information currently available to Gilead, and Gilead assumes no obligation to update any such forward-looking statements.
