Your equity
One stack per ticker (current-employer RSUs, prior-employer holdings, index fund, etc.). Each stack has its own current price, growth assumption, and cost-basis lots.

Estimates only. Not financial advice.
Lock-in-now is deterministic (0%). Plans that wait depend on future prices; risk is near-zero when inventory comfortably exceeds the goal. Volatility: each stack's option-implied vol if a ticker is set, otherwise 30%. Lognormal model; real markets have fatter tails.

Abbott Laboratories separated its research-based pharmaceutical business in 2013, and the new company carried Humira, which became the best-selling drug in the world and supplied most of its profit. Preparing for that patent cliff drove the $63 billion Allergan acquisition in 2020, adding Botox and eye care, plus the immunology successors Skyrizi and Rinvoq, which have largely replaced Humira revenue after United States biosimilars arrived in 2023. Headquarters are in North Chicago, Illinois.

This calculator builds the minimum-tax sell schedule across your lots, accounting for federal long-term capital gains, the net investment income tax, and your state.

AbbVie equity questions
- How much ABBV stock do I sell to fund a goal without overpaying tax?
- It depends on your cost basis, your target amount and date, and how the sale spreads across tax years. Selling vested ABBV shares triggers long-term capital-gains tax, plus the 3.8% net investment income tax and state tax above certain income, and bunching a large sale into one year can push the gain into a higher bracket. The calculator above builds the minimum-tax sell schedule across your lots to net your target amount by your date.
- Does AbbVie grant ISOs, NSOs, or RSUs?
- Equity compensation at AbbVie typically takes the form of restricted stock units (RSUs). Restricted stock units are taxed as ordinary income when they vest.
- Do AbbVie RSUs use double-trigger vesting?
- No. AbbVie restricted stock units (RSUs) use single-trigger vesting: each tranche becomes yours as it vests on schedule, taxed as ordinary income at that point, with no liquidity event required.
