Track ABBV free→AbbVie grows revenue about 10% a year. It raised 2026 EPS guidance to about $14.28. The company invests $1.4 billion in manufacturing and expands its drug pipeline. It also increased its dividend by 5.5%.
Legal probes into China trials could hurt AbbVie's regulatory approvals. Acquired R&D expenses remain high, pressuring earnings. A small earnings miss in Q1 2026 shows risks to growth.
The price is about 9% above our fair value near $232. Analysts expect about 10% revenue growth. Our fair value is 12% below the Street median, reflecting some caution versus the Street's optimism.
