Hikma making Gilead's COVID-19 drug remdesivir to increase supply
Hikma's Chief Executive Siggi Olafsson said the company will start supplying batches of the drug "soon," and Gilead is expected to distribute it. "The terms of the deal are confidential, we are simply a contract manufacturer for Gilead - they order products from us as they expect the sales to be," Olafsson told Reuters in a telephone interview. A pledge by Gilead to send nearly all of its supplies to the United States between July and September stirred concerns about availability elsewhere.

It also raised the revenue outlook for its generics division to a range of $720 million to $760 million, from $700 million to $750 million.
