Abbott Reports First-Quarter 2024 Results and Raises Midpoint of Full-Year Guidance Ranges

April 17, 2024 | Last Trade: US$115.93 1.20 -1.02
  • Sales of $10.0 billion driven by strong underlying base business performance
  • Reported sales increased 2.2 percent, which includes the impact from the anticipated decline in COVID-19 testing-related sales versus prior year
  • Organic sales growth for underlying base business of 10.8 percent, which represents the fifth consecutive quarter of double-digit growth1

ABBOTT PARK, Ill., April 17, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Abbott (NYSE: ABT) today announced financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2024.

  • First-quarter GAAP diluted EPS of $0.70 and adjusted diluted EPS of $0.98, which excludes specified items.
  • Abbott narrowed its full-year 2024 EPS guidance range. Abbott projects full-year diluted EPS on a GAAP basis of $3.25 to $3.40 and projects adjusted diluted EPS of $4.55 to $4.70, which represents an increase at the midpoint of the range.
  • Abbott narrowed its full-year 2024 organic sales growth guidance range, excluding COVID-19 testing-related sales, to 8.5% to 10.0%, which represents an increase at the midpoint of the range2.
  • In January, Abbott launched the Protality™ brand, a new high-protein nutrition shake to support the growing number of adults interested in pursuing weight loss while maintaining muscle mass.
  • In February, Insulet's Omnipod® 5 Automated Insulin Delivery System received CE Mark approval to be offered as an integrated solution with Abbott's FreeStyle Libre® 2 Plus sensor for treating diabetes.
  • In March, Abbott completed enrollment in the company's Volt CE Mark clinical study, which is designed to evaluate the Volt™ Pulsed Field Ablation (PFA) System for treating patients with heart rhythm disorders such as atrial fibrillation (AFib). Enrollment in the company's VOLT-AF IDE clinical study was initiated in April.
  • In April, Abbott announced U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approval of TriClip™, a first-of-its-kind, minimally invasive treatment option for patients with tricuspid regurgitation, or a leaky tricuspid heart valve.
  • In April, Abbott announced FDA approval of the i-STAT® TBI test, which helps assess a suspected traumatic brain injury (TBI) or concussion in just 15 minutes. This new test can be performed outside of traditional hospital settings, making it more accessible and convenient for patients.

"Our first-quarter results reflect a strong start to the year, and we are raising our full-year sales and EPS guidance," said Robert B. Ford, chairman and chief executive officer, Abbott. "This was the fifth consecutive quarter that we delivered double-digit organic sales growth in our underlying base business, which included particularly strong results in Medical Devices and Established Pharmaceuticals."

FIRST-QUARTER BUSINESS OVERVIEW

Management believes that measuring sales growth rates on an organic basis, which excludes the impact of foreign exchange, and the impact of the acquisition of Cardiovascular Systems, Inc. (CSI), is an appropriate way for investors to best understand the core underlying performance of the business. Management further believes that measuring sales growth rates on an organic basis excluding COVID-19 tests is an appropriate way for investors to best understand underlying base business performance as the COVID-19 pandemic has shifted to an endemic state, resulting in significantly lower demand for COVID-19 tests.

Note: In order to compute results excluding the impact of exchange rates, current year U.S. dollar sales are multiplied or divided, as appropriate, by the current year average foreign exchange rates and then those amounts are multiplied or divided, as appropriate, by the prior year average foreign exchange rates.

In Adult Nutrition, global sales increased 1.5 percent on a reported basis and 5.3 percent on an organic basis, which was led by growth of Ensure®, Abbott's market-leading complete and balanced nutrition brand.

As expected, Diagnostics sales growth in the first quarter was negatively impacted by year-over-year declines in COVID-19 testing-related sales3. Worldwide COVID-19 testing sales were $204 million in the first quarter of 2024 compared to $730 million in the first quarter of the prior year.

Excluding COVID-19 testing-related sales, global Diagnostics sales increased 2.7 percent on a reported basis and 5.4 percent on an organic basis.

Excluding COVID-19 testing-related sales, global Core Laboratory Diagnostics sales increased 2.2 percent on a reported basis and 6.2 percent on an organic basis, led by continued strong adoption of Abbott's Alinity® family of diagnostics systems and testing portfolios.

Worldwide Medical Devices sales increased 14.2 percent on a reported basis and 14.3 percent on an organic basis in the first quarter, including double-digit growth in both the U.S. and internationally.

Sales growth was led by double-digit growth in Diabetes Care, Electrophysiology, Neuromodulation, and Structural Heart. Several recently launched products and new indications contributed to the strong performance, including Amplatzer® Amulet®, Navitor®, TriClip®, and AVEIR®.

In Electrophysiology, internationally, sales grew 18.9 percent on a reported and 23.0 percent on an organic basis, which included organic sales growth of 20.4 percent in Europe.

In Diabetes Care, FreeStyle Libre sales were $1.5 billion, which represents sales growth of 22.4 percent on a reported basis and 23.3 percent on an organic basis.

Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 — A Caution Concerning Forward-Looking Statements

Some statements in this news release may be forward-looking statements for purposes of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Abbott cautions that these forward-looking statements are subject to risks and uncertainties that may cause actual results to differ materially from those indicated in the forward-looking statements. Economic, competitive, governmental, technological and other factors that may affect Abbott's operations are discussed in Item 1A, "Risk Factors" in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended Dec. 31, 2023, and are incorporated herein by reference.

In the first quarter of 2024, total worldwide sales were $9.964 billion and COVID-19 testing-related sales were $204 million. In the first quarter of 2023, total worldwide sales were $9.747 billion and COVID-19 testing-related sales were $730 million.

2

Abbott has not provided the related GAAP financial measure for organic sales growth, excluding COVID-19 testing-related sales, on a forward-looking basis because the company is unable to predict with reasonable certainty the impact of foreign exchange due to the unpredictability of future changes in foreign exchange rates, which could significantly impact reported sales growth. In addition, as the COVID-19 pandemic has shifted to an endemic state, the company has determined that it is unable to predict with reasonable certainty future COVID-19 test sales due to the unpredictability of demand for COVID-19 tests.
