Recent Events
AbbVie announced a voluntary agreement with the Trump administration to further advance access and affordability for Americans while protecting and investing in U.S. pharmaceutical innovation. Under the agreement, AbbVie will provide low prices in Medicaid, and expand affordable, direct-to-patient offerings for treatments used by millions of Americans. The company will also commit $100 billion in U.S. R&D and capital investments, including manufacturing, over the next decade. This three-year agreement provides AbbVie with exemption from tariffs and future pricing mandates. AbbVie announced it submitted applications for a new indication to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and European Medicines Agency (EMA) for Rinvoq (upadacitinib) in the treatment of adult and adolescent patients living with non-segmental vitiligo. The submissions are supported by data from the Phase 3 Viti-Up clinical trials, in which Rinvoq achieved the co-primary endpoints of 50 percent improvement in total body re-pigmentation (T-VASI 50) and 75 percent improvement in facial re-pigmentation (F-VASI 75) from baseline at week 48. If approved, Rinvoq will be the first systemic treatment for patients with vitiligo, addressing important treatment needs for those living with the chronic, unpredictable autoimmune disease. AbbVie announced it submitted an application to the EMA for expanded use of Aquipta (atogepant) for the acute treatment of adults with migraine. The submission was supported by data from the pivotal Phase 3 ECLIPSE study, evaluating the safety, efficacy and tolerability of Aquipta versus placebo for the acute treatment of migraine in adults. The study met its primary and key secondary endpoints, with Aquipta demonstrating superiority in pain freedom and freedom from the most bothersome migraine symptom two hours after treatment of the first migraine attack. Study results were shared as a late-breaking presentation at the European Headache Congress. AbbVie announced the FDA approval of Epkinly (epcoritamab) in combination with rituximab and lenalidomide (R2) for the treatment of adult patients with relapsed or refractory (R/R) follicular lymphoma (FL). The approval is based on results from the Phase 3 EPCORE FL-1 study in which Epkinly with R2 demonstrated significantly superior progression-free survival (PFS) and overall response (OR) rates compared to standard of care R2, with approximately three out of four patients achieving a complete response (CR). This approval marks the third indication for Epkinly and first FDA approval for a bispecific combination therapy in lymphoma. Epkinly is being co-developed by AbbVie and Genmab. AbbVie announced topline results from the Phase 3 EPCORE DLBCL-1 trial evaluating Epkinly compared to investigator's choice of chemoimmunotherapy in adult patients with R/R diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL). The study demonstrated an improvement in PFS and improvements were observed in CR rates, duration of response and time to next treatment among patients treated with Epkinly. The study did not demonstrate a statistically significant improvement in overall survival (OS). Based on the topline results from the trial, AbbVie along with partner Genmab will engage global regulatory authorities to discuss next steps. AbbVie and RemeGen announced an exclusive licensing agreement for the development, manufacturing and commercialization of RC148, a novel investigational Programmed Cell Death-1 (PD-1)/Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor (VEGF)-targeted bispecific antibody. RC148 is currently being developed by RemeGen as a monotherapy and in combination regimens across multiple advanced solid tumors including certain lung cancers. This transaction further strengthens AbbVie's diverse oncology portfolio and may offer new opportunities to explore combination regimens with AbbVie's antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) such as investigational Temab-A (telisotuzumab adizutecan), across multiple solid tumors with high unmet need. AbbVie and West Pharmaceutical Services announced a definitive agreement for AbbVie to acquire a device manufacturing facility in Tempe, Arizona and associated intellectual property from West. The acquisition will support production of AbbVie's current and next-generation immunology and neuroscience medicines.
Full-Year 2026 Outlook
AbbVie is issuing its adjusted diluted EPS guidance for the full-year 2026 of $14.37 to $14.57. The company's 2026 adjusted diluted EPS guidance excludes any impact from acquired IPR&D and milestones that may be incurred during 2026, as both cannot be reliably forecasted.

Non-GAAP Financial Results
Financial results for 2025 and 2024 are presented on both a reported and a non-GAAP basis. Reported results were prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (GAAP) and include all revenue and expenses recognized during the period. Non-GAAP results adjust for certain non-cash items and for factors that are unusual or unpredictable, and exclude those costs, expenses, and other specified items presented in the reconciliation tables later in this release. AbbVie's management believes non-GAAP financial measures provide useful information to investors regarding AbbVie's results of operations and assist management, analysts, and investors in evaluating the performance of the business. Non-GAAP financial measures should be considered in addition to, and not as a substitute for, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP.

Due to the GAAP net loss in the fourth quarter ended December 31, 2024, certain shares issuable under stock-based compensation plans that were dilutive on a non-GAAP basis were excluded from the computation of GAAP diluted EPS because the effects would have been antidilutive.
