I though this was an excellent comment on Seeking Alpha:
Hang in there Bret. Without their HCV franchise, they would have revenues of $15-15.5 billion this year, EPS of around $5.50, and at least mid single digit growth. The DCF value would be in the $80s and the P/E would be around 15. So at $66, the market is giving their HCV business a negative value. Go figure.
Gilead certainly has some issues, but it does have significant cash flows and some good drugs other than the HCV franchise. I agree that share price isn't going anywhere until the declining revenue trend reverses, but I think the rumors of Gilead's demise are a bit premature.
