AbbVie Declares Dividend and Announces Share Repurchase Program
Date:2/15/2013

NORTH CHICAGO, Ill., Feb. 15, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- The board of directors of AbbVie Inc. (NYSE: ABBV) declared a quarterly cash dividend and also authorized a share repurchase program of up to $1.5 billion of the Company's outstanding common stock.

The cash dividend of $0.40 per share is payable May 15, 2013 to stockholders of record at the close of business on April 15, 2013.  AbbVie was named to the S&P 500 Dividend Aristocrats Index, which tracks companies that have annually increased their dividend for at least 25 consecutive years.  AbbVie was included as a result of the Index's change in its treatment of spin-off companies.

The share repurchase authorization, which is effective immediately, is expected to be completed over a multi-year period and purchases may be made from time to time in management's discretion. The share repurchase authorization permits shares to be repurchased in open market or private transactions, has no time limit and may be discontinued at any time.
