<jats:p>Focusing on biotechnology firms, this study analyzes the relationship between the level of intensity of the research and development (R&D) conducted by a firm, the debt financing decisions the firm makes, and the overall value of the firm. The data presented shows that, although most firms are unlikely to acquire financing from the debt market, the opposite is true for firms in the biotechnology industry. One reason for this divergence may be the belief among biotechnology firms that their future commercial success depends on their ability to develop new products, resulting in a strategy of intense R&D.
