AbbVie Earnings Call Transcripts

Fiscal Year 2026

  • M&A announcement

    The acquisition brings a portfolio of differentiated, long-acting antibody assets to strengthen the immunology and respiratory pipelines, with the lead asset targeting atopic dermatitis and potential mega blockbuster sales. The $10.9B all-cash deal is expected to be accretive by 2032, leveraging clinical and commercial synergies for long-term growth.
