SG&A Expenses: A Tale of Two Biotech Giants

In the competitive world of biotechnology, operational efficiency is key. Over the past decade, Regeneron Pharmaceuticals, Inc. and Vertex Pharmaceuticals Incorporated have demonstrated contrasting trends in their Selling, General, and Administrative (SG&A) expenses. From 2014 to 2023, Regeneron's SG&A expenses surged by over 400%, peaking in 2023. This reflects their aggressive expansion and investment in administrative capabilities. In contrast, Vertex's SG&A expenses grew by approximately 270% during the same period, indicating a more conservative approach. Notably, in 2023, Regeneron's expenses were more than double those of Vertex, highlighting their differing strategic priorities. These trends offer a glimpse into how each company allocates resources to maintain their competitive edge in the biotech industry.
