Madison, NJ — A new study conducted by Econsult Solutions, Inc., a Philadelphia-based economic consulting firm, found that Allergan’s current New Jersey operations generated a combined annual economic impact in the state of $732 million.
The economic impact is a direct result of the Company’s strong influence on employment in the state, generating more than 2,900 direct, indirect and induced jobs, with total employee compensation of $289 million annually.
In 2017, Allergan will combine most of its New Jersey operations, presently located in five separate locations throughout the state, into a new U.S. Administrative Headquarters in Madison, NJ.
The Company will also add 300 new jobs following the combination. It is estimated that Allergan’s operations, when combined and expanded, will generate an annual economic impact of $894 million, and will support 3,700 direct, indirect and induced jobs with total employee compensation of $360 million annually.
The economic impact study, titled “The Economic Impact of Allergan’s Operations in New Jersey,” was conducted and developed by Andrea Mannino, Director and Economist at Econsult Solutions.
“The findings of this study clearly showcase the significant current and future impact of Allergan on the New Jersey economy, as well as its significant contribution to attracting and retaining a highly skilled biopharmaceutical workforce in the state. With its consolidation and expansion of operations in Madison, Allergan will continue to have an important economic and fiscal impact on the state’s economy,” Mannino said.

Allergan CEO and President Brent Saunders said, “Allergan is very proud to be one of the leading biopharmaceutical companies in this region and in the State of New Jersey, and we have benefited from the state’s vibrant healthcare ecosystem.
New Jersey remains one of our nation’s best locations for biopharmaceutical companies to establish operations and create innovations for the U.S. and the world. It is home to highly skilled pharma talent, research-focused universities, leading healthcare systems, and biopharmaceutical innovators and provides easy access to capital markets.”
“The combination of our operations in New Jersey will continue to benefit both Allergan and New Jersey,” Saunders continued. “It will help us maximize efficiency, enhance collaboration and build stronger bridges between our colleagues as we continue to develop and deliver innovative products for patients around the world. And we will continue to provide critical economic impact for New Jersey’s economy.”
Additional findings from the Econsult study include:
· Following the 2017 consolidation of Allergan’s New Jersey operations and the hiring of 300 additional employees, Allergan’s direct economic output will be approximately $536 million each year. This includes salaries paid to its employees as well as other direct operating expenditures.
· It is estimated that Allergan’s New Jersey operations support $31 million in annual tax revenues to the state. Following consolidation and expansion of its operations in 2017, it is estimated that Allergan’s operations will support $39 million in tax revenues to the state annually.
· The consolidation of the Company’s New Jersey operations will involve 400 direct construction jobs and $106.5 million of non-recurring expenditures, which will have a one-time economic impact in the State of New Jersey. The capital spending and other costs associated with the consolidation will potentially generate $245 million in total economic impact and support 750 direct, indirect, and induced jobs.
The Allergan Foundation, a U.S.-based, private charitable foundation committed to providing a lasting and positive impact in the communities in which Allergan plc employees live and work, has provided significant support through charitable grants and philanthropy in the state.
Since 2012, the Foundation has contributed nearly $900,000 in cash contributions to a wide range of nonprofit organizations in New Jersey, with more than $720,000 in contributions in the past two years.
“It’s no surprise Allergan has set up shop in New Jersey – the home to more biopharmaceutical and life science companies than anywhere else in the country. Allergan’s innovations and cutting-edge treatments add to the palette of groundbreaking work done across the State that will be to the benefit of patients seeking high quality care,” said U.S. Congressman Leonard Lance (NJ-07).
“Dynamic life sciences companies like Allergan work every day to find new treatments and cures for the world’s most dreaded diseases. This not only benefits patients and advances global human health, it also serves as the engine which drives New Jersey’s workforce and economy,” said Dean J. Paranicas, President and Chief Executive Officer, HealthCare Institute of New Jersey (HINJ).
