Gilead Sciences Inc. (NASDAQ:GILD) shows upbeat
performance increased 1.14% during the previous trading session. With
outstanding shares of 1366.85, its volume 10.57 Million was higher than
average volume. Robyn Karnauskas and team at Citigroup, sums up neawest
IMS data on Gilead Sciences’ (GILD) hepatitis-C drugs: IMS released
data for the week ending on 4 March, 2016. GILD HCV continues to hold
ground at 94% share.
Gilead Sciences ‘s HCV franchise was slightly down w/w in terms of new starts and holds 94% share among the new patients. We are in week #5 of new competition launch. However, new pt. starts are tracking 3% below last Q (QTD). Total scripts are tracking 9% below last Q and pointing to 1Q’16 sales at $2.16B vs. est. and $2.46B consensus. VA sales are a big unknown as lack of budget impacted Q4’15 sales. We do not think IMS fully captures VA sales and their annual budget of $1.5B (for HCV) could be the differentiating factor. In Q4’15, IMS projected volume decline of 10% but actual decline was 27% due to lower VA sales. Can investors take a chance on Buying GILD this week? Find Inside Facts Here
FirstEnergy Corp. (NYSE:FE) closed at $35.70 with slightly down of -0.75% in last trading session. FirstEnergy Corp. (FE) is expanding a transmission substation in Leroy Center to help reinforce the electric system, support load growth and enhance reliability in The Illuminating Firm’s northeast Ohio service area. The project comprises installing circuit breakers and two massive electrical transformers, each weighing about 368 tons and measuring about 28 feet tall by 25 feet wide and 44 feet in length. Transformers are used to convert power from 345-kilovolts (kV) to 138-kV as it moves along the transmission system.
Specialized “smart” communications equipment also was installed at the substation to remotely monitor operations. A nearby 345 kV transmission line connecting the Perry Nuclear Power Plant to a substation in Cleveland also will be connected to the substation in Leroy Center as part of this project to enhance resiliency and operational flexibility. The overall cost of the project is about $24 million, with about $14.8 million projected to be spent in 2016. The in-service date for the expanded substation is June 1, 2016. The firm has yearly sales growth for the past five year of 2.40%. While past twelve months price to sales ratio recorded as 1.01 and price to cash ratio remained 115.45. Should investors bet on FirstEnergy Corp. following this recent trend?
