In the competitive world of pharmaceuticals, strategic spending on Selling, General, and Administrative (SG&A) expenses can be a game-changer. Over the past decade, AstraZeneca PLC and Amneal Pharmaceuticals, Inc. have showcased contrasting SG&A spending patterns. AstraZeneca, a global leader, consistently allocated a significant portion of its budget to SG&A, peaking at approximately $18 billion in 2022, reflecting a 40% increase since 2014.
