Gilead Sciences, Inc. (NASDAQ: GILD) released its Q2 results after market close on Monday. Earnings per share came in above Wall Street consensus expectations, however, the company lowered sales guidance, sending shares down 4 percent.

Gilead reported EPS of $3.08 and revenues of $7.776 billion. Analyst consensus had an EPS estimate of $3.02 and $7.79 billion in revenue. The company cut FY16 sales guidance from $30-$31 billion to $29.5-$30.5 billion.

HIV and other antiviral product sales were $3.1 billion compared to $2.7 billion year-over-year, primarily due to increases in TAF based products such as Genvoya and Descovy.
