hapabapa AbbVie ( ABBV ) is expected to report a 23% surge in its fourth-quarter earnings, scheduled for February 4, before the opening bell. The company’s EPS is seen coming in at $2.65, while revenue is projected to jump 8.7% to $16.41B. In January, the company had said that it expects to incur acquired IPR&D and milestone expenses of $1.3B in its Q4 financial results, leading to a -$0.71 impact to GAAP and non-GAAP diluted EPS. The company said its Q4 diluted EPS guidance range, including the impact of the IPR&D and milestones expense, is $2.61-$2.65. Over the last 3 months, EPS estimates have seen no upward revisions but have witnessed 12 downward moves. Revenue estimates have seen 12 upward revisions and 2 downward moves. Analysts at Bernstein noted that the company has had a strong run-up this year, driven by growing recognition of Skyrizi and Rinvoq’s earnings potential, demonstrated by consistent quarterly beats. The company is expected to maintain the momentum. Going forward, IBD trial results will be critical for AbbVie because of intensifying competition in this treatment area. For instance, ABBV faces rising competition from JNJ’s ( JNJ ) Tremfya in IBD. 2026 is also expected to be a catalyst-rich year across AbbVie’s three core pillars- immunology, oncology, and neuroscience, Bernstein said. “We should expect to see more deals from AbbVie in 2026 as the company looks to augment growth in the early 2030s. In particular, they have signaled that they would like to complement the obesity asset they acquired from Gubra, an amylin, with a partner molecule,” it additionally noted. AbbVie is projected to guide 2026 in line with estimates but is likely to raise long-term guidance on Skyrizi/Rinvoq. Over the last 2 years, ABBV has beaten EPS estimates 63% of the time and has beaten revenue estimates 100% of the time. More on AbbVie AbbVie Inc. (ABBV) Presents at 44th Annual J.P.

Grandbrothers/iStock Editorial via Getty Images Prelude Therapeutics ( PRLD ) traded higher on Tuesday after the Wilmington, Delaware-based biotech received FDA clearance to advance an early-stage trial for its blood cancer candidate PRT12396 developed with Incyte ( INCY ). The company said that the agency greenlighted its Investigational New Drug Application for PRT12396, which is designed to target a group of blood cancers known as myeloproliferative neoplasms.

Novo Nordisk A/S Bagsværd, Denmark, 3 February 2026 – Novo Nordisk today announced sales and operating profit growth at constant exchange rates (CER) for 2025 and released the 2026 full-year sales and operating profit outlook at CER. 2025 sales and operating profit growth at CER In 2025, Novo Nordisk’s sales increased by 10% and operating profit increased by 6%, compared to previously issued guidance of 8 to 11% sales growth and 4 to 7% operating profit growth1. Sales in US Operations were positively impacted by gross-to-net sales adjustments. Profit and loss (CER) Q4 2025 FY 2025 Sales growth -2% 10% Operating profit growth (EBIT) -4% 6% 2026 sales and operating profit outlook at CER Sales and operating profit for 2026 will be positively impacted by a reversal of sales rebate provisions of USD 4.2 billion related to the 340B Drug Pricing Program in the US. Novo Nordisk will, from 2026, present outlook for sales and operating profit using new non-IFRS measures of adjusted sales growth and adjusted operating profit growth. This is introduced to exclude certain exceptional and non-recurring effects, primarily of non-cash nature, including the impact in the first quarter of 2026 from reversal of sales rebate provisions of USD 4.2 billion related to the 340B Drug Pricing Program. In the event of other exceptional, non-recurring items related to effects from major legal matters and major impairment losses, these will also be excluded from adjusted operating profit to enhance transparency and comparability of underlying operating performance. Both adjusted sales and operating profit growth exclude positive impacts from the reversal of provision related to the 340B Drug Pricing Program. In 2025, USD 400 million has been excluded, and in 2026, USD 4.2 billion has been excluded. On a non-adjusted basis, the mid-point of sales and operating profit growth guidance for 2026, both at CER, would be -1% and 11%, respectively.

In this article MP USAR Follow your favorite stocks CREATE FREE ACCOUNT watch now VIDEO 6:16 06:16 Jovanovic: Project Vault puts America’s best foot forward Worldwide Exchange The Trump administration's new minerals stockpile initiative – dubbed "Project Vault" – can include anything identified as "critical" by the U.S. Geological Survey, a White House official told CNBC Tuesday. The agency, part of the Interior Department, lists more than 50 minerals as critical. They include rare earths, lithium, uranium and copper as "essential for national security, economic stability and supply chain resilience." The minerals are crucial because they "underpin key industries, drive technological innovation, and support critical infrastructure vital for a modern American economy," according to USGS . President Donald Trump on Monday unveiled "Project Vault," which is a first-of-its-kind public-private partnership. The U.S. Export-Import Bank will provide $10 billion in the form of a loan, with about $2 billion coming from private capital. "You're covering everything with this," Trump said during an event at the White House on Monday. "We're not just doing certain minerals and rare earths. We're doing everything." Equipment manufacturers including GE Vernova, Western Digital and Boeing have expressed interest, said EXIM Bank Chairman John Jovanovic in a statement Monday. General Motors CEO Mary Barra attended the White House event that unveiled the stockpile. "Having a resilient supply chain is critical for our nation, and it's critical for all industry, especially the auto industry," Barra said at the White House. Beyond autos, critical minerals are key inputs for the defense, robotics, semiconductor, electronics and energy industries. The stockpile is the latest move by the Trump administration to build a Western supply chain to counter China's dominance in critical minerals – especially when it comes to refining. Beijing sought to cut off exports of rare earths , a subset of c...

Donald Trump’s administration has turned to an unusual weapon in its attempt to resurrect coal mining – a cartoon lump of coal, complete with giant eyes and yellow mining garb, called ‘Coalie.’ The administration’s new mascot, kitted out with a helmet, boots and gloves, was introduced in a seemingly artificial intelligence-generated picture posted online by Doug Burgum, Trump’s interior secretary. “Mine, Baby, Mine!” Burgum wrote on X, adding that Coalie will act as a “spokesperson” for Trump’s “American Energy Dominance Agenda.” Climate activists criticized the latest attempt by the administration to boost the image of the dirtiest fossil fuel despite its impacts on the planet and public health, with one critic describing it as “one of the most heinous ways to produce energy that our world has ever seen.” Coalie, whose large eyes and grin appears to invoke a Japanese style of cuteness used in toys and animated characters, is to be an ambassador for the Office of Surface Mining Reclamation and Enforcement (OSMRE), the US government agency responsible for regulating coalmines. View image in fullscreen Donald Trump and Doug Burgum speak in West Palm Beach, Florida, on 19 January 2026. Photograph: Julia Demaree Nikhinson/AP Further images of Coalie appear on the OSMRE website, where the anthropomorphic hunk of carbon is depicted joyfully posing with what appeared to be an AI-generated family, standing on an office table during a meeting while giving cheeky wink and happily showing off an abandoned coalmine that has been turned into a bucolic picnic site. The image of Coalie was first created in 2018 when a social media manager at OSMRE put googly eyes on a picture of coal, according to Grist. The new public use of Coalie to promote Trump’s agenda is the latest attempt by the administration to revamp a US coal industry that has declined sharply in the past decade despite the president’s promises to reverse the fortunes of the industry’s dwindling workforce. “I have a li...

A secondary school pupil stabbed an art teacher in southern France on Tuesday, leaving the 60-year-old in critical condition, a prosecutor said. The pupil, in a class of early teenagers, stabbed the teacher at least three times. He was later arrested on suspicion of attempted murder, said Raphael Balland, the public prosecutor in the southern city of Toulon. There were no known “religious or political connotations” at this stage, said Balland. Advertisement “All we know is that there had been tensions with this teacher recently, and that he was angry with her,” the prosecutor added during a press briefing. France’s education minister, Edouard Geffray, said he was headed to La Guicharde secondary school, where the stabbing took place, in the town of Sanary-sur-Mer. Students and their parents stand in front of the La Guicharde middle school after a teacher was stabbed on Tuesday.

I am an Apple aficionado from way back proudly, and I know how little hype there is from this company… I don’t believe that Cook and his team would be so ebullient about their discussion of Apple’s current position with me if they knew the component prices were going sky high and they’d have shortfalls galore, which is how the stock was trading earlier today.
