This beat was almost entirely due to a non-recurring $143 million GAAP revenue recognition tied to Gilead returning rights to one of Arcus’s late-stage drug programs. Earnings per share (GAAP) were break-even ($0.00) compared to an expected GAAP loss of $1.13 per share. Overall, the quarter featured an unusually large headline GAAP beat, continuing progress in its clinical pipeline, and steady financial resources to fund its research priorities.
