This summary was created by AI, based on 17 opinions in the last 12 months.

Abbott Labs (ABT) has faced a challenging year marked by a significant share price decline of approximately 30%. Analysts note that the company's ability to deliver on its earnings growth target is critical amid increasing competition and recent struggles. Despite these setbacks, several experts maintain a long-term bullish outlook on the company's growth potential, particularly after recent acquisitions that could enhance its position in the oncology space. While the stock is currently priced below its historical valuation, analysts remain cautious due to recent technical breakdowns in its stock chart and ongoing challenges. The company is expected to report quarterly results soon, prompting a wait-and-see approach from some investors, although there is optimism about future growth driven by a stable market for medical devices and diagnostics.

TOP PICK

Abbott Labs(ABT)

May 31, 2022
Stockchase Research Editor: Michael O'Reilly ABT was embroiled in a whistleblower complaint that led to shutdown of a key baby formula plant. Now that the company has effectively been cleared of wrongdoing, the plant will be reopening and we again reiterate ABT as a TOP PICK. Recently reported earnings beat expectations and support at ROE of 28%. The have aggressively bought back shares and are retiring debt early. They are a Dividend Aristocrat, raising dividends for 50 consecutive years. We continue to recommend a stop loss at $105, looking to achieve $143 -- upside potential over 20%. Yield 1.6% (Analysts’ price target is $140.17)

PAST TOP PICK

Abbott Labs(ABT)

May 17, 2022
(A Top Pick May 18/21, Down 2%) A diversified healthcare company including diagnostics, nutrtiion, and generic drugs. They made many Covid testing kits, so they benefitted from the pandemic. Shares got hit as the pandemic waned. Still, they've made a lot of money, so they can use that cash flow to buy other companies. The medical devices business will ramp up as surgeries do. Last quarter, their infant formula controversy led them closing their plants; later, ABT was cleared of wrongdoing, so this business will ramp back up. They increase their dividend each year. Pays 2% yield now.

TOP PICK

Abbott Labs(ABT)

Apr 05, 2022
Stockchase Research Editor: Michael O'Reilly ABT has benefited from COVID-19 testing worldwide, is the second largest cardiologic technology company in the world, and is a large player in the continuous glucose monitoring market for diabetes. It trades at 30x earnings, compared to peers at 23x; however, forward earnings support a 23x valuation. It is a little expensive at over 5x book value. It pays a small dividend (that has been growing for 50 years consecutively), backed by a payout ratio under 50% of cash flow. Its most recent earnings beat expectations by 11% and support a strong 27% ROE. It has been building cash reserves while paying down debt. We would recommend setting a stop loss at $105, looking to achieve $143 -- 18% upside potential. Yield 1.59% (Analysts’ price target is $142.88)

TOP PICK

Mar 15, 2022

Has owned this for years, but is buying at current prices. They make the Covid-testing kits, totalling $10 billion revenues. Demand here will likely soften. The stock price is flat over the year, despite those revenues, but at least the cash flow from the testing can lead to more products and acquisition. They forecast they can grow revenues around 9%. Attractive stock price now. Diagnostic and medical devices are good business. Pharmas are selling to emerging markets. Their glucose monitoring system is doing well. Their heart products are a new source of growth. Attractive PE. (Analysts’ price target is $139.72)

An excellent company, a leader in medical diagnostics but he is not sure about current positioning. He doesn't want exposure to infectious diseases diagnostics. Wait for the area to act better and interest rates to stabilize.

Likes it. They got a lot of money from BinoxNOX, but they get no credit from it, so they need to deploy that money somehow. Meanwhile, their glucose monitor is selling very well--that's the reason to own it.

Has owned this many years. It's sensitive to the Covid testing environment, like now during Omicron. So, it's has a nice run from this increasing demand. But the market always looks forward, so Abbott doesn't enjoy that testing rise. They report later this month. She is waiting for a slightly lower entry point. Nobody knows what will happen with Covid, but the pandemic has given them a nice cash cushion while medical devices and diagonistics divisions are doing well and will grow, she think around 8-12%. She likes this long term.

COMMENT

Abbott Labs(ABT)

Jan 17, 2022
An advisor could help the caller decide whether to hold or sell some. He doesn't own either The devices made by Abbott show promise for the stock so there is upside. The pharmaceutical side is not of particular interest. These are relatively defensive stocks but market could gravitate to cyclicals.

Diversified. Generics to EMs, medical devices, diagnostics, nutritionals. Covid tests. Outlook cut in June, as demand for rapid tests dropped. Now we're seeing increases in rapid tests. Good growth in med devices and diabetic monitoring. More in the pipeline. Attractive value. Increases dividend every year. She'd buy it here. Yield is 1.53%. (Analysts’ price target is $129.74)
