Gilead Sciences, Inc. is an American biopharmaceutical company headquartered in Foster City, California, that focuses on researching and developing antiviral drugs used in the treatment of HIV/AIDS, hepatitis B, hepatitis C, influenza, and COVID-19, including ledipasvir/sofosbuvir and sofosbuvir. Gilead is a member of the Nasdaq-100 and the S&P 100. Gilead was founded in 1987 under the name Oligogen by Michael L. Riordan. The original name was a reference to oligonucleotides, small strands of DNA used to target genetic sequences. Gilead held its initial public offering in 1992, and successfully developed drugs like Tamiflu and Vistide that decade. In the 2000s, Gilead received approval for drugs including Viread and Hepsera, among others. It began evolving from a biotechnology company into a pharmaceutical company, acquiring several subsidiaries, though it still relied heavily on contracting to manufacture its drugs. The company continued its growth in the 2010s.

How the Chick-fil-A Cauliflower Sandwich was created

The Rise of Chick-Fil-A

Chick-fil-A generated $21+ billion revenue in 2023 operating 3,000+ locations as America's 3rd largest fast-food chain (behind McDonald's $47B and Starbucks $33B) despite closing all restaurants on Sundays—sacrificing estimated $1.5B+ annual revenue to honor founder S. Truett Cathy's Southern Baptist faith requiring Sunday as day of worship/rest for employees. Founded 1967 in Atlanta by Cathy (1921-2014), inventor of boneless chicken breast sandwich (pressure-cooked in peanut oil mimicking taste/texture of fried chicken), Chick-fil-A differentiated through limited menu (chicken-focused, no burgers), exceptional service ('my pleasure' instead of 'you're welcome,' cult employee training), and unique franchise model (operators pay $10K franchise fee, lowest in industry versus McDonald's $45K entry fee + $1-2M startup costs, but company owns real estate/equipment and takes 50% gross sales versus 10-15% royalties elsewhere—selective vetting choosing character over capital, 1 in 400 applicants accepted). Strategic advantages include highest per-store revenue ($8M+ average unit volume versus $3M McDonald's, $2M Subway), customer loyalty (90+ Net Promoter Score, highest fast food), operational efficiency (double drive-thru lanes, employee hospitality training, limited menu enabling speed), and values-driven brand (family-friendly positioning, scholarships for employees, disaster relief donations). However, controversies erupt repeatedly: 2012 CEO Dan Cathy (Truett's son) opposed same-sex marriage sparking boycotts and 'Chick-fil-A Appreciation Day' counter-protests; WinShape Foundation (Cathy family charity) donations to anti-LGBTQ+ organizations drew criticism; 2019 pledge to stop donations to Salvation Army/Fellowship of Christian Athletes seen as betrayal by conservatives but insufficient by progressives. Privately held by Cathy family (Dan Cathy CEO 2013-2021, son Andrew Cathy CEO 2021-present), company avoided public market scrutiny enabling values-first decisions.
