Unlocking the unknown
In the competitive landscape of corporate America, understanding the efficiency of Selling, General, and Administrative (SG&A) expenses is crucial. AECOM and Owens Corning, two industry giants, have shown distinct trends in their SG&A expenditures over the past decade. From 2014 to 2023, AECOM's SG&A expenses grew by approximately 98%, reflecting strategic investments and operational expansions. In contrast, Owens Corning's expenses surged by around 71%, indicating a more conservative approach.
AECOM's peak in 2020, with expenses reaching nearly 1.9 times their 2014 levels, suggests a period of aggressive growth. Meanwhile, Owens Corning's steady increase, peaking in 2023, highlights a consistent strategy. Notably, data for Owens Corning in 2024 is missing, leaving room for speculation on future trends. This analysis underscores the importance of SG&A efficiency in shaping corporate success.
