The top 10 pharma R&D budgets in 2016
AstraZeneca and Bristol-Myers Squibb shelled out the most on R&D in percentage terms, both spending just over 25% of their revenue.
Both of those companies have, however, sales at the lower end of the Big Pharma list: AZ brought in $23 billion last year, while BMS took in just $19.4 billion. Their respective R&D budgets of $5.89 billion and $4.94 billion, while topping the ranking percentage-wise, came in near the bottom in absolute numbers.
There is a bit more to the BMS story as well: In 2015, the company spent $5.9 billion on research, but last year, that dropped by $1 billion, or 16%. In percentage terms in 2015, BMS put 42% of its revenue toward R&D. This was by far the largest drop in an R&D budget for the top 10 last year.
Most of the others upped their spend slightly, a few significantly, although AZ also spent less in 2016, with a decline of 1.7% off its total 2015 budget.
Eli Lilly was a close third to AZ and BMS, with 24.7% of its total $21.2 billion in sales last year going into R&D. That spending represented a 9% increase on its 2015 figures.
The lowest in percentage terms was Johnson & Johnson, which laid out just 12.6% of its sales on research in 2016 (this was around 10% for its $7 billion pharmaceuticals research). J&J's spending was comparatively large at $9 billion (though that figure included research on medical devices and other areas outside pharmaceuticals), but so was its revenue at $71.9 billion, more than any of its top 10 peers.
Swiss oncology major Roche was tops in total terms, spending a massive CHF11.53 billion ($11.42 billion) last year, nearly 23% of its CHF50.57 billion in revenue. It also recorded a 20% jump in R&D spending compared with 2015, the biggest increase among the top 10, with most of this increase going into its pharmaceuticals divisions, the rest into diagnostics.
Generally, research budgets moved up with sales in percentage terms, although some may feel that an average 17% of its total revenue going into R&D seems a little small. And the $70 billion R&D figure for the top 10 together is, in fact, the same as it was back in 2012 and 2011, so total spend has remained stagnant for some time.
