A Comparative Analysis of SG&A Expenses: Lam Research vs. Intel

In the ever-evolving semiconductor industry, operational efficiency is key to maintaining a competitive edge. This analysis delves into the Selling, General, and Administrative (SG&A) expenses of two industry giants, Lam Research Corporation and Intel Corporation, from 2014 to 2023. Over this period, Intel's SG&A expenses have shown a downward trend, decreasing by approximately 31% from their peak in 2016. In contrast, Lam Research has experienced a steady increase, with expenses rising by about 44% over the same timeframe. This divergence highlights differing strategic priorities and operational efficiencies. Notably, Intel's expenses dropped significantly in 2023, while Lam Research continued its upward trajectory. The absence of Intel's 2024 data suggests a potential shift or anomaly worth monitoring. Understanding these trends provides valuable insights into the financial strategies of these tech titans.
