Worldwide sales of $10.4 billion in the third quarter
Raises full-year earnings-per-share guidance
Continues to strengthen portfolio with new product approvals and launches
ABBOTT PARK, Ill., Oct. 19, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Abbott (NYSE: ABT) today announced financial results for the third quarter ended Sept. 30, 2022.
Third-quarter sales of $10.4 billion decreased 4.7 percent on a reported basis and increased 1.3 percent on an organic basis, which excludes the impact of foreign exchange.
GAAP diluted EPS1 was $0.81 in the third quarter. Excluding specified items, adjusted diluted EPS was $1.15.
Full-year 2022 guidance assumes COVID-19 testing-related sales of $7.8 billion, which includes sales of $7.3 billion through September 2022 and projected sales of $0.5 billion in the fourth quarter.
In September, Abbott presented new data showing its FreeStyle Libre® continuous glucose monitoring system helped reduce acute diabetes-related events, leading to a 67 percent decrease in hospitalizations in people with Type 2 diabetes on once-daily (basal) insulin therapy.2
During the quarter, Abbott launched its latest-generation FreeStyle Libre 3 system in the U.S., which automatically delivers up-to-the-minute glucose readings and unsurpassed 14-day accuracy3 in the world's smallest and thinnest3 wearable sensor.
During the quarter, following a manufacturing stoppage earlier this year, Abbott restarted production of Similac® as well as EleCare® and metabolic infant formulas at its Sturgis, Michigan, facility.
"Our results and increased guidance in the current macroeconomic environment reflect the strength of our diversified business model and execution," said Robert B. Ford, chairman and chief executive officer, Abbott. "We're particularly pleased with improving sales growth rates in U.S. Medical Devices, which is being fueled by several recent product launches, as well as continued strong performance in Established Pharmaceuticals."
THIRD-QUARTER BUSINESS OVERVIEW
Note: Management believes that measuring sales growth rates on an organic basis is an appropriate way for investors to best understand the underlying performance of the business. Organic sales growth excludes the impact of foreign exchange.
