AbbVie Reports Third-Quarter 2025 Financial Results
NORTH CHICAGO, Ill., Oct. 31, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- AbbVie (NYSE: ABBV) announced financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2025.
"AbbVie continues to deliver outstanding results, with significant momentum across key areas of our portfolio. We are also making great progress advancing our pipeline and investing in innovation to support AbbVie's long-term growth," said Robert A. Michael, chairman and chief executive officer, AbbVie. "Based upon the strength of our business and its promising outlook, we are once again raising our quarterly cash dividend."
Third -Quarter Results
Note: "Operational" comparisons are presented at constant currency rates that reflect comparative local currency net revenues at the prior year's foreign exchange rates.
Recent Events
Full-Year 2025 Outlook
AbbVie is raising its adjusted diluted EPS guidance for the full year 2025 from $10.38 - $10.58 to $10.61 - $10.65, which includes an unfavorable impact of $2.05 per share related to acquired IPR&D and milestones expense incurred year-to-date through the third quarter 2025. The company's 2025 adjusted diluted EPS guidance excludes any impact from acquired IPR&D and milestones that may be incurred beyond the third quarter of 2025, as both cannot be reliably forecasted.
Company Declares Dividend Increase of 5.5 Percent
AbbVie is announcing today that its board of directors declared an increase in the company's quarterly cash dividend from $1.64 per share to $1.73 per share beginning with the dividend payable on February 17, 2026 to shareholders of record as of January 16, 2026. This reflects an increase of approximately 5.5 percent, continuing AbbVie's strong commitment to returning cash to shareholders through a growing dividend. Since the company's inception in 2013, AbbVie has increased its quarterly dividend by more than 330 percent. AbbVie is a member of the S&P Dividend Aristocrats Index, which tracks companies that have annually increased their dividend for at least 25 consecutive years.

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.
