The following is a discussion and analysis of the financial condition of AbbVie Inc. (AbbVie or the company) as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023 and the results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023. This commentary should be read in conjunction with the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and accompanying notes appearing in Item 1, “Financial Statements and Supplementary Data.”

EXECUTIVE OVERVIEW

Company Overview

AbbVie is a global, diversified research-based biopharmaceutical company positioned for success with a comprehensive product portfolio that has leadership positions across immunology, oncology, aesthetics, neuroscience and eye care. AbbVie uses its expertise, dedicated people and unique approach to innovation to develop and market advanced therapies that address some of the world’s most complex and serious diseases.

On July 1, 2024, AbbVie announced Robert A. Michael, AbbVie's former president and chief operating officer, succeeded Richard A. Gonzalez as the company's chief executive officer (CEO). Mr. Gonzalez, who has served as CEO since the company's formation in 2013, retired from the role of CEO and became executive chairman of the board of directors, effective July 1, 2024. Additionally, the board has appointed Mr. Michael as a member of the board of directors effective July 1, 2024.

On February 12, 2024, AbbVie completed the acquisition of ImmunoGen, Inc. (ImmunoGen). The acquisition of ImmunoGen further builds on AbbVie's existing solid tumor pipeline of novel targeted therapies and next-generation immuno-oncology assets, which have the potential to create new treatment possibilities across multiple solid tumors and hematologic malignancies. AbbVie and ImmunoGen's combined capabilities represent an opportunity to deliver potentially transformative antibody-drug conjugate (ADC) therapies to patients. See Note 4 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information on the acquisition. Subsequent to the acquisition date, AbbVie's consolidated financial statements include the assets, liabilities, operating results and cash flows of ImmunoGen.

AbbVie's products are generally sold worldwide directly to wholesalers, distributors, government agencies, health care facilities, specialty pharmacies and independent retailers from AbbVie-owned distribution centers and public warehouses. Certain products (including aesthetic products and devices) are also sold directly to physicians and other licensed healthcare providers. In the United States, AbbVie distributes pharmaceutical products principally through independent wholesale distributors, with some sales directly to retailers, pharmacies, patients or other customers. Outside the United States, AbbVie sells products primarily to wholesalers or through distributors, and depending on the market works through largely centralized national payers system to agree on reimbursement terms. Certain products are co-marketed or co-promoted with other companies. AbbVie operates as a single global business segment and has approximately 50,000 employees.

2024 Strategic Objectives

AbbVie's mission is to discover and develop innovative medicines and products that solve serious health issues today and address the medical challenges of tomorrow while achieving top-tier financial performance through outstanding execution. AbbVie intends to execute its strategy and advance its mission in a number of ways, including: (i) maximizing the benefits of a diversified revenue base with multiple long-term growth drivers; (ii) leveraging AbbVie's commercial strength and international infrastructure across therapeutic areas and ensuring strong commercial execution of new product launches; (iii) continuing to invest in and expand its pipeline in support of opportunities in immunology, oncology, aesthetics, neuroscience and eye care as well as continued investment in key on-market products; (iv) generating substantial operating cash flows to support investment in innovative research and development, and return cash to shareholders via a strong and growing dividend while also continuing to repay debt. In addition, AbbVie anticipates several regulatory submissions and data readouts from key clinical trials in the next 12 months.

Financial Results

The company's financial performance for the six months ended June 30, 2024 included delivering worldwide net revenues of $26.8 billion, operating earnings of $6.8 billion, diluted earnings per share of $1.53 and cash flows from operations of $6.3 billion. Worldwide net revenues increased 3% on a reported basis and 4% on a constant currency basis.

Diluted earnings per share was $1.53 for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and included the following after-tax costs: (i) $3.3 billion related to the amortization of intangible assets; (ii) $2.1 billion for the change in fair value of contingent consideration

2024 Form 10-Q |			29

liabilities; and (iii) $611 million of acquisition and integration expenses. Additionally, financial results reflected continued funding to support all stages of AbbVie’s pipeline assets and continued investment in AbbVie’s on-market brands.

Research and Development

Research and innovation are the cornerstones of AbbVie’s business as a global biopharmaceutical company. AbbVie’s long-term success depends to a great extent on its ability to continue to discover and develop innovative products and acquire or collaborate on compounds currently in development by other biotechnology or pharmaceutical companies.

AbbVie’s pipeline currently includes approximately 90 compounds, devices or indications in development individually or under collaboration or license agreements and is focused on such important specialties as immunology, oncology, aesthetics, neuroscience and eye care. Of these programs, approximately 50 are in mid- and late-stage development.

The following sections summarize transitions of significant programs from mid-stage development to late-stage development as well as developments in significant late-stage and registration programs. AbbVie expects multiple mid-stage programs to transition into late-stage programs in the next 12 months.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Net Revenues

The comparisons presented at constant currency rates reflect comparative local currency net revenues at the prior year’s foreign exchange rates. This measure provides information on the change in net revenues assuming that foreign currency exchange rates had not changed between the prior and current periods. AbbVie believes that the non-GAAP measure of change in net revenues at constant currency rates, when used in conjunction with the GAAP measure of change in net revenues at actual currency rates, may provide a more complete understanding of the company’s operations and can facilitate analysis of the company’s results of operations, particularly in evaluating performance from one period to another.

Interest expense increased for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 compared to the prior year primarily due to the incremental interest associated with financing the ImmunoGen and Cerevel Therapeutics acquisitions. See Note 8 to the condensed consolidated financial statements for additional information related to debt issued to finance the ImmunoGen and Cerevel Therapeutics acquisitions.

Interest income increased for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 compared to the prior year primarily due to a higher average cash and cash equivalents balance and the impact of higher interest rates.

Other expense, net included charges related to changes in fair value of contingent consideration liabilities of $1.5 billion for the three months and $2.1 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and $1.6 billion for the three months and $3.4 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2023. The fair value of contingent consideration liabilities is impacted by the passage of time and multiple other inputs, including the probability of success of achieving regulatory/commercial milestones, discount rates, the estimated amount of future sales of the acquired products and other market-based factors. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, the change in fair value reflected higher estimated Skyrizi sales and the passage of time, partially offset by higher discount rates. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 the change in fair value reflected higher estimated Skyrizi sales driven by stronger market share uptake and the passage of time. The change in fair value for the three months ended June 30, 2023 is also partially offset by higher discount rates.

Income Tax Expense

The effective tax rate was 36% for the three months and 30% for the six months ended June 30, 2024 compared to 22% for the three months and 26% for the six months ended June 30, 2023. The effective tax rate in each period differed from the U.S. statutory tax rate of 21% principally due to the impact of foreign operations which reflects the impact of lower income tax rates in locations outside the United States, changes in fair value of contingent consideration and business development activities, including ImmunoGen acquisition-related costs. The increase in the effective tax rate for the three months ended June 30, 2024 over the prior year was primarily due to business development activities. The increase in the effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2024 over the prior year was primarily due to business development activities in the current period, offset by decreased changes in fair value of contingent consideration and impairment of certain intangible assets in the prior period.

FINANCIAL POSITION, LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

			Six months ended June 30,
(in millions)			2024						2023
Cash flows provided by (used in):
Operating activities			$	6,311					$	10,512
Investing activities			(10,690)						(840)
Financing activities			4,722						(10,112)

Operating cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2024 decreased compared to the prior year primarily due to the timing of working capital, higher contingent consideration payments classified as operating cash flows and decreased results from operations driven by ImmunoGen acquisition-related cash expenses.

Investing cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2024 included $9.8 billion cash consideration paid to acquire ImmunoGen offset by cash acquired of $591 million, payments made for other acquisitions and investments of $1.0 billion and capital expenditures of $434 million. Investing cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2023 included payments made for other acquisitions and investments of $513 million and capital expenditures of $353 million.

Financing cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2024 included the issuance of unsecured senior notes totaling $15.0 billion aggregate principal which were used to finance the acquisitions of ImmunoGen and Cerevel Therapeutics. Additionally, financing cash flows included the issuance and repayment of $5.0 billion under the term loan credit agreement and repayments of €1.5 billion aggregate principal amount of 1.38% senior euro notes, €700 million aggregate principal amount of 1.25% senior euro notes, $1.0 billion aggregate principal amount of 3.85% senior notes and $99 million of secured term notes assumed from ImmunoGen in conjunction with the acquisition. Financing cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2023 included repayments of $1.0 billion floating rate term loan, $1.0 billion aggregate principal amount of 2.85% senior notes and $350 million aggregate principal amount of the company’s 2.80% senior notes.

Financing cash flows also included cash dividend payments of $5.5 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and $5.3 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2023. The increase in cash dividend payments was primarily driven by the increase in the quarterly dividend rate.

On June 21, 2024, the company announced that its board of directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $1.55 per share for stockholders of record at the close of business on July 15, 2024, payable on August 15, 2024. The timing, declaration, amount of and payment of any dividends by AbbVie in the future is within the discretion of its board of directors and will depend upon many factors, including AbbVie’s financial condition, earnings, capital requirements of its operating subsidiaries, covenants associated with certain of AbbVie’s debt service obligations, legal requirements, regulatory constraints, industry practice, ability to access capital markets and other factors deemed relevant by its board of directors.

The company's stock repurchase authorization permits purchases of AbbVie shares from time to time in open-market or private transactions at management's discretion. The program has no time limit and can be discontinued at any time. On February 16, 2023, AbbVie’s board of directors authorized a $5.0 billion increase to the existing stock repurchase authorization. AbbVie repurchased 5 million shares for $959 million during the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 10 million shares for $1.6 billion during the six months ended June 30, 2023.

Financing cash flows also included contingent consideration payments of $641 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023. There were no contingent consideration payments classified as financing cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2024.

2024 Form 10-Q |			37

During the six months ended June 30, 2024, the company issued and redeemed $1.7 billion of commercial paper. There were no commercial paper borrowings outstanding as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023. AbbVie may issue additional commercial paper or retire commercial paper to meet liquidity requirements as needed.

Credit Risk

AbbVie monitors economic conditions, the creditworthiness of customers and government regulations and funding, both domestically and abroad. AbbVie regularly communicates with its customers regarding the status of receivable balances, including their payment plans and obtains positive confirmation of the validity of the receivables. AbbVie establishes an allowance for credit losses equal to the estimate of future losses over the contractual life of outstanding accounts receivable. AbbVie may also utilize factoring arrangements to mitigate credit risk, although the receivables included in such arrangements have historically not been a significant amount of total outstanding receivables.

Credit Facility, Access to Capital and Credit Ratings

Credit Facility

In December 2023, in connection with the acquisitions of ImmunoGen and Cerevel Therapeutics, AbbVie entered into a $9.0 billion 364-day bridge credit agreement and $5.0 billion 364-day term loan credit agreement. In February, 2024, AbbVie borrowed and repaid $5.0 billion under the term loan credit agreement. Subsequent to the $15.0 billion issuance of senior notes, AbbVie terminated both the bridge and term loan credit agreements in the first quarter of 2024.

In March 2023, AbbVie entered into an amended and restated five-year revolving credit facility. The amendment increased the unsecured revolving credit facility commitments from $4.0 billion to $5.0 billion and extended the maturity date of the facility from August 2023 to March 2028. This credit facility enables the company to borrow funds on an unsecured basis at variable interest rates and contains various covenants. At June 30, 2024, the company was in compliance with all covenants, and commitment fees under the credit facility were insignificant. No amounts were outstanding under the company's credit facility as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023.

Access to Capital

The company intends to fund short-term and long-term financial obligations as they mature through cash on hand, future cash flows from operations or has the ability to issue additional debt. The company’s ability to generate cash flows from operations, issue debt or enter into financing arrangements on acceptable terms could be adversely affected if there is a material decline in the demand for the company’s products or in the solvency of its customers or suppliers, deterioration in the company’s key financial ratios or credit ratings or other material unfavorable changes in business conditions. At the current time, the company believes it has sufficient financial flexibility to issue debt, enter into other financing arrangements and attract long-term capital on acceptable terms to support the company’s growth objectives.

Credit Ratings

There were no changes in the company’s credit ratings during the six months ended June 30, 2024. Unfavorable changes to the ratings may have an adverse impact on future financing arrangements; however, they would not affect the company’s ability to draw on its credit facility and would not result in an acceleration of scheduled maturities of any of the company’s outstanding debt.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

A summary of the company’s significant accounting policies is included in Note 2, “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” in AbbVie's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023. There have been no significant changes in the company’s application of its critical accounting policies during the six months ended June 30, 2024.
