With the earlier-than-expected CE Mark, Abbott has begun commercial PFA cases in the EU with physicians who have already gained experience with the Volt PFA S ystem through participation in Abbott's PFA clinical studies. The company will further expand the use of Volt in EU markets throughout the second half of the year. • In March, Abbott announced the initiation of its U.S. pivotal trial, TECTONIC, to evaluate its investigational Coronary Intravascular Lithotripsy (IVL) System in treating severe calcification in coronary arteries prior to implanting a stent. • In March, Abbott presented new two-year data from its TRILUMINATE ™ pivotal trial that showed Abbott's TriClip ™ device significantly reduced the rate of heart failure-related hospitalizations, while continuing to provide a sustained reduction of tricuspid regurgitation and significant improvements in quality of life. • Abbott's two new manufacturing and R&D investments in Illinois and Texas, totaling $0.5 billion, are projected to go live by the end of 2025. "Once again, Abbott's diversified business model delivered top-tier sales and EPS growth," said Robert B. Ford, chairman and chief executive officer, Abbott. "It is this diversification and execution that allows Abbott to navigate through periods of uncertainty and continually deliver sustainable growth." Page 1 of 15 FIRST-QUARTER BUSINESS OVERVIEW Management believes that measuring sales growth rates on an organic basis, which excludes the impact of foreign exchange and the impact of discontinuing the ZonePerfect ® product line in the Nutrition business, is an appropriate way for investors to best understand the core underlying performance of the business. Note: In order to compute results excluding the impact of exchange rates, current year U.S. dollar sales are multiplied or divided, as appropriate, by the current year average foreign exchange rates and then those amounts are multiplied or divided, as appropriate, by the prior year average foreign exchange rates.

Page 6 of 15 ABBOTT'S FINANCIAL GUIDANCE Abbott projects full-year 2025 organic sales growth to be in the range of 7.5% to 8.5%. Abbott projects full-year 2025 adjusted operating margin to be 23.5% to 24.0% of sales.
