In context

.6 billion, an increase of $100 million, reflecting demand growth in psoriatic and IBD indications. Rinvoq global sales of $10.2 billion, an increase of $100 million, reflecting strong performance in the room and gastro indications. Total Neuroscience revenues of $12.6 billion an increase of $100 million, reflecting momentum across the portfolio. Moving to the P&L for 2026. We continue to forecast full year adjusted gross margin above 84% of sales. Adjusted R&D expense of approximately $9.7 billion and adjusted SG&A expense of approximately $14.2 million. We now anticipate an adjusted operating margin ratio of approximately 47.5% of sales, in line with our previous expectations after including the roughly 1% unfavorable impact of acquired IP R&D expense incurred through the first quarter. We also now expect adjusted net interest expense of approximately $2.7 billion, a reduction of $100 million, primarily related to favorable rates on our debt issuance. Turning to the second quarter. We anticipate net revenues of approximately $16.7 billion. This includes an estimated 0.6% favorable impact from foreign exchange. We are forecasting an adjusted operating margin ratio of approximately 50%. We -- we expect adjusted earnings per share between $3.74 and $3.78. This guidance does not include acquired IPR&D expense that may be incurred in the quarter. In closing, AbbVie continues to deliver outstanding results and our financial health remains very strong. Our capital allocation priorities remain focused on the future as we are investing in the business at record levels, have financial flexibility to pursue compelling business development and returning capital to shareholders through our strong and growing dividend. With that, I'll turn the call
