By exploiting new measures, the perturbations of q, a novel counterintuitive yet reasonable fact emerge: low robustness of investment opportunities (high perturbations of q) is able to spur firm propensity to pay dividends, lower repurchase shares, and decrease the cash a firm holds simultaneously. Specifically, firms that are likely to hold fewer amounts of cash when the robustness of investment opportunities is low, which is distinct from the standard channel of uncertainty. These results are consistent with firms' liquidity management policies being significantly shaped by robustness concerns.","PeriodicalId":127551,"journal":{"name":"Corporate Finance: Valuation","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-11-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123762763","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

I suspect that this corresponds to an appreciation by socially responsible investors and is reflected in higher value for firms with a stronger CSR performance. In line with this conjecture, I find a premium of 4% in relation to the average firm value for higher environmental performance and 3.5% for higher social performance. The results are consistent with theoretical concepts arguing that CSR expenditures can be compatible with value maximization if it is a response to shareholder preferences.","PeriodicalId":127551,"journal":{"name":"Corporate Finance: Valuation","volume":"20 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-11-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130005584","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We apply novel methodology to almost 60,000 firms in 110 countries over 17 years—over 300,000 total observations. We find that bank term loans and credit lines are strongly positively associated with firm value, but only when employed very intensively—at 90% or more of total corporate debt. These effects are consistent with bank specialness at high-intensity levels. These findings support previously untested theoretical predictions that bank specialness would be stronger or exist only at high bank debt intensities. Our results hold broadly but are stronger for credit-constrained firms—small firms and those in low-income countries. Channel analysis suggests that term loans boost short-term firm performance more, while credit lines better promote long-run growth. The findings suggest future research topics and have policy implications, particularly during the COVID-19 crisis.","PeriodicalId":127551,"journal":{"name":"Corporate Finance: Valuation","volume":"119 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-11-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125153682","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Using the citation stock, we show that an increase in a firm’s citation stock contributes to its productivity growth and that the citation stock provides information on whether research and development (R&D) leads to innovation that cannot be captured by focusing on the amount of R&D investment alone. In addition, we find that while higher R&D investment is associated with new innovation, the efficiency of R&D investment in Japan has decreased in recent years. Such a decrease in the efficiency of R&D investment has been reported not only for Japanese firms but also for a wide range of fields around the world, so that firms and research institutions are attempting to maintain the pace of innovation by increasing the number of researchers and research spending. For Japan, where it is difficult to increase the number of researchers due to the declining population, it is important to improve the quality of research through various efforts such as increasing the diversity of researchers.","PeriodicalId":127551,"journal":{"name":"Corporate Finance: Valuation","volume":"460 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122494089","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Subjects were asked to rank investment alternatives using a scoring model. A mixed design with information provision as the within-subject variable and initial information load as the between-subjects variable was employed. A computer-based process tracing technology provided insights into the underlying information acquisition process – information cues were covered by boxes for the second step of the decision. Moving the cursor over a box uncovered the information. Duration and frequency of uncovering the different information cues was recorded in a database. The main variables of interest were decision accuracy, decision confidence, and measures characterizing the information acquisition process. The main findings were the following: the amount of information provided in the first step significantly impacted decision accuracy and decision confidence, which decreased for the high initial information load group. In addition, receiving a high number of information cues in the first step led to a reduction in the attention devoted to the information received in the second step. Confirmatory information search behavior could not be observed. Findings help further our understanding on how the amount and timing of information provision impact decision quality and confidence.","PeriodicalId":127551,"journal":{"name":"Corporate Finance: Valuation","volume":"53 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-10-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127537848","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The experiment employed a 2x2 between-subjects design and was run in a course on management control systems with 136 master’s degree students at a German university. Subjects were tasked with reviewing investment proposals that contained differing amounts of information (low vs. high data load, i.e., irrelevant information cues in addition to those relevant for the decision). The second manipulation referred to the type of decision aid – either a detailed, rules-based capital budgeting guideline with clear cut-off rates, or the advice to employ generally accepted criteria for investment decision-making. The dependent variables investigated were perceived task complexity, decision accuracy, and decision confidence. Increases in data load led to an increase in perceived task complexity. There was only limited evidence for experimental conditions affecting decision accuracy. The group of subjects relying on the capital budgeting manual reported significantly higher decision confidence. Implications for practice on how to provide decision-makers with information for investment decision-making are derived.","PeriodicalId":127551,"journal":{"name":"Corporate Finance: Valuation","volume":"49 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-10-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132834713","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Evidence suggests that earnings stability has a positive and significant effect on operating cash flows, and financial constraints have a negative and significant effect on operating cash flows and also financial constraints do not have a significant interactive effect on the relationship between profit stability and operating cash flows. To measure operating cash flow, the cash flow from operating activity obtained through the cash flow statement is obtained by dividing the total assets of the company. The research is from 2012 to 2016 that a total of 121 companies active in various industries have formed the research sample. The method of the present research is descriptive-correlational in terms of applied purpose and post-event in terms of data collection method. Multivariate regression method has been used to test the research hypotheses. The independent variable in this study is profit stability and the dependent variable is operating cash flow and financial constraint as a moderating variable. The result is also supported by stakeholder theory. In general, the research findings show the important and prominent role of earnings stability in shaping the operating cash flow and its financial constraints.","PeriodicalId":127551,"journal":{"name":"Corporate Finance: Valuation","volume":"01 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-10-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127228047","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Shapiro","doi":"10.2139/ssrn.3715899","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.2139/ssrn.3715899","url":null,"abstract":"In an article published in 1987, we explained how corporate stakeholders, including customers, employees, suppliers, and distributors, influence financial policy and corporate behavior and why corporations have an incentive to treat these non-investor stakeholders fairly. At the heart of this explanation is the recognition that there are two fundamentally different classes of claims on a corporation. The first and most familiar are explicit contractual claims. These include employment contracts, bond indentures, product warranties, and the like. The second are implicit claims. Examples include fair treatment of employees, promise of continuing service to customers, and honest dealing with suppliers and distributors. Corporate stakeholders, all of whom have business relationships with the companies whose implicit claims they hold, value these implicit claims and are therefore prepared to pay for them. Corporate value is created by selling these implicit claims for more than it costs to honor them. More recently, a new class of non-investor stakeholders has arisen, related to Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) issues, but with no business relationships with the companies they are making demands on. Although many ESG advocates stress their role in creating shareholder value, they provide no explanation for how this value creation occurs. In this paper, we show that implicit claims provide a critical link that ties non-investor stakeholders and ESG to shareholder value. We show why many of the demands placed on corporations by ESG advocates, in the name of corporate social responsibility, interfere with the sale of implicit claims to corporate stakeholders and may thereby destroy shareholder value.","PeriodicalId":127551,"journal":{"name":"Corporate Finance: Valuation","volume":"43 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-10-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116252763","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Using an extended set of measures to describe the “length” of a firm’s horizon, we find that after the enactment of constituency statutes, executive compensation contracts have longer vesting periods, the shareholder composition changes towards greater institutional ownership with longer-term horizons, employee turnover is lower, firms manage earnings less and conduct fewer share repurchases, and firms extend more trade credit that reflects longer-term relationships with their customers. We further show this long-termism matters for firm performance, as it improves profitability.
