SG&A Spending Patterns: A Tale of Two Companies

In the world of pharmaceuticals, Dr. Reddy's Laboratories Limited and Geron Corporation present a fascinating study in contrasts. Over the past decade, Dr. Reddy's has consistently increased its Selling, General, and Administrative (SG&A) expenses, peaking in 2023 with a staggering 105% increase from 2014. This growth reflects its aggressive expansion and market penetration strategies. In contrast, Geron Corporation's SG&A expenses have grown modestly, with a 312% increase over the same period, indicating a more conservative approach.

While Dr. Reddy's expenses surged in 2023, Geron's spending also reached its highest point, albeit at a much smaller scale. This divergence highlights the different strategic priorities of these companies. As Dr. Reddy's focuses on scaling operations, Geron appears to be investing cautiously, perhaps prioritizing research and development. The absence of data for 2024 suggests a potential shift or pause in these trends, warranting close observation.
