UBS reiterates a 'Buy' on Gilead Sciences (NASDAQ: GILD) price target of $65.00 (from $61.00).
Analyst, Matthew Roden, updates his model (raises PT and estimates) following Stribild's approval, a competitor's failure (Bristol-Myer's (NYSE: BMY) BMS-094). Overall, Roden, sees HIV and HCV product cycles as underappreciated.
Current, Roden's model is 12% above consensus for 2014 revenues, seeing HIV sales ($650M delta) and GS-7977 sales ($500M delta). He cites the Stribild price, with is 33% above Artipla. For HCV, Roden thinks his $1.1B GS-7977 estimate (consensus is $600M) is actually conservative, considering Incivek did $951M in its first six months of sales.
For FY12, EPS estimate raised slightly from $3.90 to $3.91 an FY13 from $4.50 to $4.53.
