Many people set a goal to save $1 million for retirement. This amount may or may not be sufficient in today's economy, but it's at least a good start.
AbbVie's Q4 and full-year 2024 earnings surpassed expectations, driven by strong performance from Skyrizi and Rinvoq, despite Humira's revenue decline due to patent expirations. Management's guidance for 2025 and beyond is bullish, projecting high single-digit revenue growth through 2029, with Skyrizi and Rinvoq expected to generate $31 billion in combined sales by 2027. AbbVie's M&A strategy faced setbacks, notably with the Cerevel acquisition, but the company remains optimistic about future approvals and growth in oncology and neuroscience.
AbbVie Inc. reported strong Q4 2024 results, driven by Skyrizi, Rinvoq, neuroscience products, and eye care, and this offset worse-than-expected Humira erosion. 2025 guidance includes $59 billion in revenue and $12.12-$12.32 adjusted EPS, and includes a worse outlook for Humira and additional headwinds from the Medicare Part D benefit redesign. Management expects high single-digit revenue growth through 2029, and over the next eight years, as there are no major products losing exclusivity throughout this period.
ABBV's fourth-quarter earnings and sales beat estimates. Management raises the 2027 forecast for newer immunology drugs to more than $31 billion.
