The company has accumulated 59.13 B in total debt. AbbVie Inc has a current ratio of 1.02, suggesting that it is in a questionable position to pay out its financial obligations in time and when they become due. Debt can assist AbbVie until it has trouble settling it off, either with new capital or with free cash flow. So, AbbVie's shareholders could walk away with nothing if the company can't fulfill its legal obligations to repay debt. However, a more frequent occurrence is when companies like AbbVie Inc sell additional shares at bargain prices, diluting existing shareholders. Debt, in this case, can be an excellent and much better tool for AbbVie to invest in growth at high rates of return. When we think about AbbVie's use of debt, we should always consider it together with cash and equity.
