Meanwhile, Bernstein analyst Courtney Breen maintained a "Buy" rating on Gilead Sciences, Inc. (NASDAQ:GILD), with a price objective of $120.00 [2]. The analyst's favorable outlook is driven by the potential of the new HIV prevention drug, Yeztugo (Lenacapavir), which was recently approved by the FDA. The drug's innovative dosing paradigm is expected to enhance patient adherence and expand the PrEP market. Despite concerns about pricing, the analyst believes insurance coverage may mitigate the financial burden. Gilead Sciences has also announced a strategic partnership with the Global Fund to supply lenacapavir.
United Natural Foods, Inc. revised its earnings guidance for the fiscal year ending August 2, 2025 [3]. The company expects net sales to be in the range of $31.6 billion to $31.8 billion, a slight increase from its previous guidance range. The net loss is expected to be between $115 million and $90 million, up from the previous range of $80 million to $55 million. The loss per diluted share is projected to be between $1.85 and $1.45, up from the previous range of $1.30 to $0.90. The company attributes the changes to its strong performance in the first three quarters and the estimated costs and charges associated with a previously disclosed cyber incident.
