I’ve seen some chatter on this. To clarify.
DD: Senior Notes Offering – 02/24/2026
AbbVie announced it launched a senior notes offering totaling ~
$7.95B in multiple tranches with expected net proceeds of about
$7.95B, according to the filing dated Feb. 24, 2026. The offering spans maturities from 2028 to 2066 and includes fixed and floating rate notes. 
The company plans to use the proceeds to repay outstanding amounts under its 364-day delayed draw term loan facility and for general corporate purposes, which may include repaying or repurchasing other debt. 
This is debt financing, not equity issuance, so it should not dilute shareholders. It bolsters liquidity and provides flexibility for refinancing and balance sheet management.
