Intel has put literally hundreds of billions of dollars into R&D annually in the past decade. Last year alone it was more than $16 billion. That's one of the highest annual R&D spends of any company in the entire US.
Nvidia for comparison is less than half that per year.

That is to say, there is always a positive return on investment for the marginal R&D dollar. It is clearly not in the case or every company would have exponential growth simply by reinvesting in R&D. In reality, it is extremely difficult to create growth from R&D at all.
