Note 3 Earnings Per Share
AbbVie grants certain restricted stock units (RSUs) that are considered to be participating securities. Due to the presence of participating securities, AbbVie calculates earnings per share (EPS) using the more dilutive of the treasury stock or the two-class method. For all periods presented, the two-class method was more dilutive.
The following table summarizes the impact of the two-class method:

Note 7 Financial Instruments and Fair Value Measures
Risk Management Policy
See Note 11 to the company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025 for a summary of AbbVie’s risk management policy and use of derivative instruments.
Financial Instruments
Various AbbVie foreign subsidiaries enter into foreign currency forward exchange contracts to manage exposures to changes in foreign exchange rates for anticipated intercompany transactions denominated in a currency other than the functional currency of the local entity. These contracts, with notional amounts totaling $ 3.8 billion at June 30, 2026 and $ 2.5 billion at December 31, 2025, are designated as cash flow hedges and are recorded at fair value. The durations of these forward exchange contracts were generally less than 24 months. Accumulated gains and losses as of June 30, 2026 are reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) (AOCI) and included in cost of products sold at the time the products are sold, generally not exceeding six months from the date of settlement.
The company also enters into foreign currency forward exchange contracts to manage its exposure to foreign currency denominated debt, trade payables and receivables and intercompany loans. These contracts are not designated as hedges and are recorded at fair value. Resulting gains or losses are recognized in other expense, net in the condensed consolidated statements of earnings and are generally offset by losses or gains on the foreign currency exposure being managed. These contracts had notional amounts totaling $ 9.2 billion at June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025.
The company also uses foreign currency forward exchange contracts or foreign currency denominated debt to hedge its net investments in certain foreign subsidiaries and affiliates. The company had an aggregate principal amount of senior Euro notes designated as net investment hedges of € 3.1 billion at June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025. In addition, the company had foreign currency forward exchange contracts designated as net investment hedges with notional amounts totaling € 6.7 billion, SEK 1.4 billion, CAD 800 million and CHF 80 million at June 30, 2026 and € 6.5 billion, SEK 1.4 billion, CAD 500 million and CHF 80 million at December 31, 2025. The company uses the spot method of assessing hedge effectiveness for derivative instruments designated as net investment hedges. Realized and unrealized gains and losses from these hedges are included in AOCI and the initial fair value of hedge components excluded from the assessment of effectiveness is recognized in interest expense, net over the life of the hedging instrument.
The company is a party to interest rate swap contracts designated as fair value hedges with notional amounts totaling $ 3.3 billion at June 30, 2026 and $ 1.8 billion at December 31, 2025. The effect of the hedge contracts is to change a fixed-rate interest obligation to a floating rate for that portion of the debt. AbbVie records the contracts at fair value and adjusts the carrying amount of the fixed-rate debt by an offsetting amount.
The company is a party to interest rate swap contracts designated as cash flow hedges with notional amounts totaling $ 750 million at June 30, 2026. The effect of the hedge contracts is to change a floating-rate interest obligation to a fixed rate for that portion of

the floating-rate debt. AbbVie records the contracts at fair value and includes accumulated gains or losses in AOCI which it reclassifies to interest expense, net over the lives of the floating-rate debt.
No amounts are excluded from the assessment of effectiveness for cash flow hedges or fair value hedges.

Assuming market rates remain constant through contract maturities, the company expects to reclassify pre-tax gains of $ 45 million into cost of products sold for foreign currency cash flow hedges and pre-tax gains of $ 23 million into interest expense, net for other cash flow hedges during the next 12 months.
Related to AbbVie’s non-derivative, foreign currency denominated debt designated as net investment hedges, the company recognized in other comprehensive income (loss) pre-tax gains of $ 43 million for the three months and $ 103 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and pre-tax losses of $ 283 million for the three months and $ 416 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025.

Fair Value Measures
The fair value hierarchy consists of the following three levels:
• Level 1 – Valuations based on unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets that the company has the ability to access;
• Level 2 – Valuations based on quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active and model-based valuations in which all significant inputs are observable in the market; and
• Level 3 – Valuations using significant inputs that are unobservable in the market and include the use of judgment by the company’s management about the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability.
The following table summarizes the bases used to measure certain assets and liabilities carried at fair value on a recurring basis on the condensed consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025:

Money market funds and time deposits are valued using relevant observable market inputs including quoted prices for similar assets and interest rate curves. Equity securities primarily consist of investments for which the fair values were determined by using the published market prices per unit multiplied by the number of units held, without consideration of transaction costs. The derivatives entered into by the company were valued using observable market inputs including published interest rate curves and both forward and spot prices for foreign currencies.

The financing liability is related to financing arrangements which the company elected to account for in accordance with the fair value option, as permitted under ASC 825 Financial Instruments . The fair value measurement of the financing liability was determined based on significant unobservable inputs. Potential payments are estimated by applying a probability-weighted expected payment model, which are then discounted to present value. Changes to the fair value of the financing liability can result from changes to one or a number of inputs, including discount rates, estimated probabilities and timing of achieving milestones and estimated amounts of future sales. The change in fair value recognized in net earnings is recorded in other expense, net in the condensed consolidated statements of earnings and the change in fair value attributable to instrument-specific credit risk is recognized in other comprehensive income (loss). Changes in fair value recognized in other expense, net and in other comprehensive income (loss) for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 and June 30, 2025 were insignificant.
The fair value measurements of the contingent consideration liabilities were determined based on significant unobservable inputs, including the discount rate, estimated probabilities and timing of achieving specified development, regulatory and commercial milestones and the estimated amount of future sales of the acquired products. The potential contingent consideration payments are estimated by applying a probability-weighted expected payment model for contingent milestone payments and a Monte Carlo simulation model for contingent royalty payments, which are then discounted to present value. Changes to the fair value of the contingent consideration liabilities can result from changes to one or a number of inputs, including discount rates, the probabilities of achieving the milestones, the time required to achieve the milestones and estimated future sales. Significant judgment is employed in determining the appropriateness of certain of these inputs. Changes to the inputs described above could have a material impact on the company's financial position and results of operations in any given period.
The fair value of the company's contingent consideration liabilities was calculated using the following significant unobservable inputs:
June 30, 2026 December 31, 2025
Range Weighted average (a)
Range Weighted average (a)
Discount rate 4.2 % - 5.5 %

(a) Unobservable inputs were weighted by the relative fair value of the contingent consideration liabilities.
(b) At June 30, 2026, the estimated probability of payment was 100 % for approved Skyrizi indications and 38 % for pipeline assets in combination with Skyrizi based on the weighted probabilities of achieving regulatory approval. Excludes early-stage pipeline assets with 0 % estimated probability of payment.
(c) At June 30, 2026, the projected year of payments ends in 2037 for Skyrizi and in 2044 for pipeline assets in combination with Skyrizi.
There have been no transfers of assets or liabilities into or out of Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy. The following table presents the changes in fair value of total contingent consideration liabilities which are measured using Level 3 inputs:

AbbVie also holds investments in equity securities that do not have readily determinable fair values. The company records these investments at cost and remeasures them to fair value based on certain observable price changes or impairment events as they occur. The carrying amount of these investments was $ 162 million as of June 30, 2026 and $ 159 million as of December 31, 2025. No significant cumulative upward or downward adjustments have been recorded for these investments as of June 30, 2026.
Concentrations of Risk
Of total net accounts receivable, three U.S. wholesalers accounted for 82 % as of June 30, 2026 and 84 % as of December 31, 2025, and substantially all of AbbVie’s pharmaceutical product net revenues in the United States were to these three wholesalers.

The effective tax rate was 15 % for the three months and 19 % for the six months ended June 30, 2026 compared to 39 % for the three months and 31 % for the six months ended June 30, 2025. 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 reflect lower income tax rates in locations outside the United States partially offset by changes in fair value of contingent consideration and business development activities. The decrease in the effective tax rate for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 over the prior year was primarily due to the decreased impact of changes in fair value of contingent consideration and business development activities. The decrease in the effective tax rate for the three months ended June 30, 2026 over the prior year was partially offset by changes in the impact of foreign operations.

AbbVie is subject to contingencies, such as various claims, legal proceedings and investigations regarding product liability, intellectual property, commercial, securities and other matters that arise in the normal course of business. Loss contingency provisions are recorded for probable losses at management’s best estimate of a loss, or when a best estimate cannot be made, a minimum loss contingency amount within a probable range is recorded. The recorded accrual balance for litigation was approximately $ 1.7 billion as of June 30, 2026 and $ 1.6 billion as of December 31, 2025. For litigation matters discussed below for which a loss is probable or reasonably possible, the company is unable to estimate the possible loss or range of loss, if any, beyond the amounts accrued. Initiation of new legal proceedings or a change in the status of existing proceedings may result in a change in the estimated loss accrued by AbbVie. While it is not feasible to predict the outcome of all proceedings and exposures with certainty, management believes that their ultimate disposition should not have a material adverse effect on AbbVie’s consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
Antitrust Litigation
Lawsuits are pending against AbbVie and others generally alleging that the 2005 patent litigation settlement involving Niaspan entered into between Kos Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (a company acquired by Abbott in 2006 and presently a subsidiary of AbbVie) and a generic company violated federal and state antitrust laws and state unfair and deceptive trade practices and unjust enrichment laws. Plaintiffs generally seek monetary damages and/or injunctive relief and attorneys' fees. The lawsuits pending in federal court consist of six individual plaintiff lawsuits and a certified class action by Niaspan direct purchasers. The cases are pending in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania for coordinated or consolidated pre-trial proceedings under the federal multi-district litigation (MDL) Rules as In re: Niaspan Antitrust Litigation, MDL No. 2460. In October 2016, the Orange County, California District Attorney’s Office filed a lawsuit on behalf of the State of California regarding the Niaspan patent litigation settlement in Orange County Superior Court, asserting a claim under the unfair competition provision of the California Business and Professions Code seeking injunctive relief, restitution, civil penalties and attorneys’ fees.
Government Proceedings
Lawsuits are pending against Allergan and several other manufacturers generally alleging that they improperly promoted and sold prescription opioid products. Approximately 215 lawsuits are pending against Allergan in federal and state courts. Most of the federal court lawsuits are consolidated for pre-trial purposes in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Ohio under the MDL rules as In re: National Prescription Opiate Litigation, MDL No. 2804. Approximately 20 of the lawsuits are pending in various state courts. The plaintiffs in these lawsuits, which include counties, cities, other municipal entities, Native American tribes, union trust funds and other third-party payors, private hospitals and personal injury claimants, generally seek compensatory and punitive damages. Of these approximately 215 lawsuits, approximately 20 of them are brought by counties, cities and other municipal entities, approximately 5 of which are in the process of being dismissed pursuant to the previously announced settlement.
Product Liability and General Litigation
In April 2023, a putative class action lawsuit, Camargo v. AbbVie Inc., was filed in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Illinois on behalf of Humira patients who paid for Humira based on its list price or who, after losing insurance coverage, discontinued Humira because they could not pay based on its list price, alleging that Humira’s list price is excessive in violation of multiple states’ unfair and deceptive trade practices statutes. The plaintiff generally seeks monetary damages, injunctive relief, and attorneys’ fees. In January 2026, the court granted AbbVie’s motion to dismiss, without prejudice. In March 2026, the plaintiff filed a notice of appeal of this dismissal to the United States Court of Appeals for the Seventh Circuit.
Lawsuits are pending against various Allergan entities in the United States and other countries including Australia, Brazil, Canada and South Korea, in which plaintiffs generally allege that they developed, or may develop, breast implant-associated anaplastic large cell lymphoma (ALCL) or other injuries from Allergan’s Biocell textured breast implants, which were voluntarily withdrawn from worldwide markets in 2019. In June 2026, AbbVie reached an agreement to resolve substantially all the United States-based ALCL lawsuits, which will be dismissed with prejudice. Approximately 1,300 other lawsuits are coordinated for pre-trial purposes in the United States District Court for the District of New Jersey under the MDL rules as In re: Allergan Biocell Textured Breast Implant Product Liability Litigation, MDL No. 2921; approximately 475 other lawsuits are pending in various U.S. state courts; and approximately 1,080 lawsuits are pending in other countries. In December 2025, the Amsterdam District Court dismissed all claims pending against Allergan and affiliated entities in the Netherlands. In March 2026, the plaintiffs in the Netherlands filed a notice of appeal of this dismissal to the Amsterdam Court of Appeal. Plaintiffs generally seek monetary damages, medical monitoring and attorneys’ fees.

In January 2025, a putative class action lawsuit, Sheet Metal Workers’ Health Plan of Southern California, Arizona and Nevada v. AbbVie Inc., was filed in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Illinois on behalf of third-party payors of Humira, alleging that AbbVie’s rebating practices are impairing biosimilar competition with Humira in violation of federal and state antitrust laws. The plaintiff generally seeks monetary damages, injunctive relief and attorneys' fees.
Intellectual Property Litigation
AbbVie is seeking to enforce patent rights related to ubrogepant (a drug sold under the trademark Ubrelvy). Litigation was filed in the United States District Court for the District of New Jersey in March 2024 against Aurobindo Pharma U.S.A., Inc., Aurobindo Pharma Limited, and Apitoria Pharma Private Limited; Zydus Pharmaceuticals (USA) Inc. and Zydus Lifesciences Limited; and Hetero USA Inc., Hetero Labs Limited Unit-III, and Hetero Labs Limited. AbbVie alleges defendants’ proposed generic ubrogepant products infringe certain patents and seeks declaratory and injunctive relief. Merck Sharp & Dohme LLC, which exclusively licenses certain patents to AbbVie, is a co-plaintiff in the litigation.
AbbVie is seeking to enforce patent rights related to atogepant (a drug sold under the trademark Qulipta). Litigation was filed in the United States District Court for the District of New Jersey in December 2025 and January 2026 against Apotex Inc.; Macleods Pharmaceuticals Ltd. and Macleods Pharma USA, Inc.; Dr. Reddy’s Laboratories, Ltd. and Dr. Reddy’s Laboratories, Inc.; MSN Pharmaceuticals Inc., MSN Laboratories Private Limited, and MSN Life Sciences Private Limited; Hetero USA Inc., Hetero Labs Limited Unit-III, Hetero Labs Limited, and Honour Lab Limited; and Micro Labs Limited and Micro Labs USA, Inc.

Note 12 Segment Information
AbbVie operates as a single global business segment dedicated to the research and development, manufacturing, commercialization and sale of innovative medicines and therapies. This operating structure enables the Chief Executive Officer, as chief operating decision maker (CODM), to allocate resources and assess business performance on a global basis in order to achieve established long-term strategic goals. Consistent with this structure, a global research and development and supply chain organization is responsible for the discovery, manufacturing and supply of products. Commercial efforts that coordinate the marketing, sales and distribution of these products are organized by geographic region or therapeutic area. All of these activities are supported by a global corporate administrative staff. The determination of a single business segment is consistent with the consolidated financial information regularly reviewed by the CODM for purposes of assessing performance, allocating resources and planning and forecasting future periods.
The CODM regularly reviews net revenues, net earnings and significant segment expenses and uses net earnings as its principal measure of segment profit or loss. Net earnings and significant segment expenses reviewed by the CODM are reported on the condensed consolidated statements of earnings for the periods ended June 30, 2026 and 2025. The CODM uses net earnings as its principal measure of segment profit or loss to compare past financial performance with current performance and analyze underlying business performance and trends. The CODM does not use segment assets to make decisions regarding resources; therefore, the total asset disclosure has not been included.
