Pfizer is a global pharmaceutical company and among the top pharmaceutical companies in the world. Pfizer is headquartered in New York City. In 2024, the company's total revenue stood at 63.6 billion U.S. dollars. Pfizer’s global positioning Pfizer’s products are available in many countries worldwide and as of 2024, the company had more than 200 research and development projects in the pipeline. For several years, Pfizer was the top pharmaceutical company based on global prescription drug sales and is among the leading pharmaceutical companies based on research and development (R&D) spending. Pfizer’s largest segment is Innovative Health (IH). The Innovative Health business focuses on various rare diseases, vaccines, immunology and internal medicine to name a few. Pfizer’s top products In 2024, products from the Prevnar family were among Pfizer's top products based on revenue. However, Pfizer has several other drugs that are also well-known. For example, Lipitor (atorvastatin calcium) is used in the treatment of high cholesterol. Over the years, however, Lipitor revenues have been on the decline due to patent loss, yet it remains part of Pfizer’s top products. One of Pfizer’s most well-known products, Viagra (sildenafil citrate), used in the treatment of erectile disfunction, has also been on the decline with 2019 having the lowest revenues on record. The low revenues are mainly attributable to Viagra’s loss of patent exclusivity in the U.S. in December 2017.

In 2024, Pfizer generated total revenues of some 63.6 billion U.S. dollars. For Q4, 2024, the company reported revenues of some 17.8 billion U.S. dollars. That was significantly higher than 14.6 billion dollars in Q4 2023. By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail The majority of Pfizer’s revenue comes from the manufacture and sale of its products. Pharmaceutical companies are always planning for the future, looking for ways to offset the impact felt when those products start to lose market exclusivity. The development of products is essential for the continued growth of the company, and investing in research and development (R&D) is one way of identifying new, innovative medicines. Pfizer’s R&D expenditure stood at around 10.8 billion U.S. dollars in 2024. Why Pfizer’s revenues decreased until 2020? Pfizer averaged quarterly revenues of around 13.2 billion U.S. dollars in the four years from the start of 2016 to the end of 2019 – this is considerably lower than the 16.7 billion U.S. dollars the company averaged per quarter in 2010. One reason for the decline was competition from generic drugs that entered the market when key patents expired. Pfizer lost the market exclusivity for its Lipitor product at the end of 2011, and revenues were greatly affected as a consequence. Additionally, following a review of its product portfolio, Pfizer’s revenues were also impacted by the decision to spin off some of its business segments, such as its animal health division in 2013 and its Upjohn business in 2020.

Revenues generated from outside the United States accounted for almost two thirds of Pfizer's total revenue in 2024. During that year, the company generated revenues of roughly 25 billion U.S. dollars in countries outside the United States. China emerges as an important market Pfizer sells its pharmaceutical products in more than 120 countries worldwide, with the United States, China, and Japan being among the major national markets. In 2024, the United States alone contributed a share of more than 60 percent. In terms of geographic area, emerging markets – which include China – generated revenues of approximately 8.9 billion U.S. dollars in 2024. Analyzing Pfizer’s global operations In 2024, Pfizer had approximately 81,000 employees worldwide. The American company had 37 manufacturing sites in countries ranging from Belgium to Singapore, each producing products that serviced the company’s commercial division. Pfizer also had several facilities that focused on research and development projects, many of which were located in North America.

In fiscal year 2024, Pfizer's revenue by geographical region are as follows: Developed Rest Of World: $16.06B, Emerging Markets: $8.88B, UNITED STATES: $38.69B.

Sales from the United States contributed more than 38 billion U.S. dollars towards Pfizer's total revenue of around 63.6 billion U.S. dollars in 2023. Pfizer sees strong growth in emerging markets Pfizer’s total revenue is divided into four geographic areas: the United States, Developed Markets, and Emerging Markets. China is one of the company’s largest single markets behind the United States, which contributed 60 percent of Pfizer’s total revenue. Pfizer continues to support investment in emerging markets, but the vulnerable nature of these countries means strategies come with an element of risk due to unforeseen financial or political events, for example. The power of product patents Managing the expiration of key patents is one of the greatest challenges facing Pfizer because competition from generic versions can make a big difference to company revenues. Many of Pfizer’s leading products enjoy the security of market exclusivity, but less expensive generic versions are free to enter the market when these property rights end. In 2019, Pfizer anticipated a fall in sales revenue from China due to significant competition from generic versions.
