In context
“the launch so far, particularly the accelerated time line for payer coverage. In other parts of our business, strength in HIV is expected to be partially offset by weaker cell therapy estimates, where we now forecast approximately a 10% decline for full year 2025 versus full year 2024. For Veklury, we continue to expect full year revenue of approximately $1 billion. As a result, total product sales are anticipated to be in the range of $28.4 billion to $28.7 billion. As noted earlier, this reflects a $100 million increase at the low end of the range from our previous guidance. Finally, we continue to expect the impact of known tariffs to be manageable in 2025. Moving to the rest of the P&L. There is no change to our prior non-GAAP guidance for product gross margin, R&D and SG&A expenses. We continue to expect product gross margin of approximately 86%, R&D expenses to be roughly flat on a dollar basis from 2024 and SG&A expenses to decline by a mid- to high single-digit percentage compared to 2024. Similar to last year, we expect a step-up in both R&D and SG&A expenses in the fourth quarter, reflecting normal end of year trends. We have updated our IPR&D expectations for the full year to reflect our actuals through the third quarter and our known fourth quarter commitments, including $300 million relating to the Interius acquisition. We now expect full year acquired IPR&D to be $900 million. Rounding out the P&L, we expect operating income to be between $13.1 billion and $13.4 billion, reflecting an increase of $100 million at the low end of the prior guidance range. We continue to expect our effective tax rate to be approximately 19%. And finally, we expect non-GAAP EPS in the range of $8.05 and $8.25, raising non-GAAP EPS by $0.10 at the low end of the range. GAAP EPS is expected”
