Truvada® (emtricitabine 200 mg/tenofovir disoproxil fumarate
300 mg) and Complera®/Eviplera® (emtricitabine 200
mg/rilpivirine 25 mg/tenofovir disoproxil fumarate 300 mg) which was

Royalty, Contract and Other Revenues
Royalty, contract and other revenues were $83.9 million for the second
quarter of 2012, down 14 percent from $97.7 million for the second
quarter of 2011, due primarily to lower Tamiflu royalties from F.

were $396.2 million compared to $282.4 million for the second quarter of
2011. Non-GAAP R&D expenses for the second quarter of 2012, which
exclude acquisition-related, restructuring and stock-based compensation

to the continued advancement of Gilead's product pipeline, particularly
in the liver disease and oncology franchises.

quarter of 2012 were $332.5 million compared to $304.3 million for the

compensation expenses, were $298.7 million compared to $276.4 million
for the second quarter of 2011. The increase in non-GAAP SG&A expenses
was due primarily to increased expenses to support the ongoing growth of
Gilead's business.
Interest Expense and Other Income (Expense), Net
Interest expense for the second quarter of 2012 was $88.4 million
compared to $46.1 million for the second quarter of 2011. The increase
was due primarily to the additional debt issued in connection with the
acquisition of Pharmasset Inc. (Pharmasset) in the first quarter of
2012. Other income (expense), net for the second quarter of 2012 was a
net expense of $1.1 million compared to net income of $12.0 million in
the second quarter of 2011. The change was due primarily to decreased
interest income from lower cash, cash equivalents and marketable
securities.
Net Foreign Currency Exchange Impact
The net foreign currency exchange impact on second quarter 2012 product
sales and pre-tax earnings was an unfavorable $31.7 million and $17.4
million, respectively, compared to the second quarter of 2011.
Cash, Cash Equivalents and Marketable Securities
As of June 30, 2012, Gilead had $2.27 billion of cash, cash equivalents
and marketable securities compared to $9.96 billion as of December 31,
2011. The decrease was due to the acquisition of Pharmasset in the first
quarter of 2012. Gilead generated $1.74 billion of operating cash flow
during the first six months of 2012 including $1.29 billion generated in
the second quarter of 2012 driven by the collection of $460 million of
past due accounts receivable in Spain contributing to a 15 day reduction
in days sales outstanding.
