Pharmaceutical industry is an industry that all countries in the world focus on, and the development and progress of pharmaceutical science and technology represent a country's scientific research strength, which can promote economic development and social progress. Research and development investment and sales intensity are two crucial aspects of pharmaceutical enterprises, in order to explore the impact of pharmaceutical enterprises' research and development investment and sales costs on the current period of corporate performance.

The objectives of this study are to examine the impact of &D investment intensity and sales intensity on profitability and development capability of listed pharmaceutical companies, and next to examine the differences in sales intensity and R&D investment intensity on the performance of listed pharmaceutical companies across industry types .

This study takes the public financial data of listed enterprises in China's pharmaceutical industry as the research object, and selects the top 50 enterprises in the industry rankings among the A-share listed chemical pharmaceutical enterprises, the top 69 enterprises in the return on net assets rankings in 2022 among the traditional Chinese medicine pharmaceutical enterprises, and the representative 49 enterprises among the biopharmaceutical pharmaceutical enterprises, for a total of 168 representative pharmaceutical enterprises to establish a regression model from the data of 2012-2022. In summary, listed companies in the pharmaceutical industry should maintain high sales intensity and R&D investment intensity, but the implementation needs to take into account the differences in the type of industry, which will help companies better respond to market changes and improve profitability and development.
