What the price assumes
Your guesses, our math
Move the sliders to your own view of GILD. Starting points are the company's recent numbers (it isn't profitable yet, so the margin starts at a 10% guess).

Price these guesses point to$49.31-69% vs $158.68 todayAbout -21% a year, before dividends
What today's price needs: with a 10% margin and a 15x P/E, sales would have to grow about 34% a year for 5 years just to match today's price.
Simple math on your guesses, not a forecast or a price target. Real results depend on many things these sliders leave out.

Pre-planned sales of $3.2M (weaker signal)
50 is neutral. Buying by more insiders, top executives and bigger stakes raises it. Selling lowers it; pre-planned sales count less.
