A critical management issue is the likelihood and magnitude of climate change's impacts affecting firms' credit risk. We propose a random-effects logistic generalized least squares regression model for panel data to examine the impacts and the firm heterogeneity by country and sector. The global and country-wise panel data analyses show that carbon emissions increase firms' PDs in the global and four-country markets for all risk horizons, whereas the sector-wise analyses show that high carbon emissions reduce firms' PDs only in the industrials sector out of four sectors. In addition, for three countries (the United States, the United Kingdom, and Japan) and four sectors, the longer the risk horizon, the more the heterogeneity represented by the between-firm residual variance decreases, whereas for China, the heterogeneity with Scope 3 fluctuates. Overall, this study provides an effective credit risk analysis methodology that considers carbon emissions for related entities, such as firms, lenders, investors, regulators, and policymakers.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":44561,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Corporate Accounting and Finance","volume":"37 1","pages":"81-100"},"PeriodicalIF":1.2,"publicationDate":"2025-06-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145969946","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 results show that discretionary loan loss provisions are generally associated with a positive market reaction, as they may signal managerial confidence or financial strength. However, this reaction is reduced when CAM disclosures indicate audit complexity, contain a negative tone, or include uncertain language—leading to increased return volatility around the 10-K filing date.

Based on a hand-collected dataset from SEC filings (Form 20-F or 40-F) and a sample of 408 unique cross-listed firms (1,699 firm-year observations) from 2005 to 2015, our findings indicate that both analyst location and home-country institutional characteristics are important factors in affecting the association between the choice of IFRS versus US GAAP and analyst behavior in the US market. Specifically, for the US-based analysts, we have no evidence of significant differences in analyst coverage, forecast accuracy, or forecast dispersion between IFRS and US GAAP users. Within the group of non-US analysts, however, IFRS users tend to attract fewer analysts and have more accurate earnings forecasts. Additionally, for firms from countries with strong enforcement regimes, IFRS users are associated with lower analyst coverage and greater forecast accuracy. These effects, however, do not exist for firms from weak enforcement countries. This study contributes to the literature on IFRS and cross-listing by offering insights into the role of accounting standards in shaping analyst forecast behavior. Our findings are relevant to policymakers, standard setters, and financial analysts, highlighting the broader implications of accounting standard choices on market participants.</p>\u0000 </div>","PeriodicalId":44561,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Corporate Accounting and Finance","volume":"37 1","pages":"9-30"},"PeriodicalIF":1.2,"publicationDate":"2025-06-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145993885","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}

It is known that an increase in EPU is likely to deteriorate Korean firms’ conservatism largely due to the weak corporate governance and inefficient information environment. In contrast, the presence of foreign ownership would improve the financial reporting quality of Korean firms because foreign shareholders are expected to actively monitor and restrict managers’ opportunistic behaviors. Therefore, we posit that foreign investors are likely to demand more conservatism when EPU increases in Korean capital market. This study adopts <i>C-score</i> as suggested by Khan, Watt, and Basu (1997) based on Basu (1997)’s asymmetric timeliness test model to measure Korean firms’ accounting conservatism. This study uses panel dataset with a total of 22,882 firm-year observations during the sample period from 2000 to 2018. Consistent with our reasoning, we find that foreign ownership positively moderate on the relationship between EPU and conservatism in Korean firms. But this positive moderating effect is not found in business group-affiliated firms, in which a small number of controlling shareholders exert huge influence, exceeding their voting power. Also, this positive moderating effect becomes more pronounced when the foreign shareholders are the largest shareholders. The results are robust with alternative conservatism measures, alternative economic uncertainty measures, and more control variables.</p>\u0000 </div>","PeriodicalId":44561,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Corporate Accounting and Finance","volume":"37 1","pages":"31-47"},"PeriodicalIF":1.2,"publicationDate":"2025-06-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145969653","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}

This paper explicitly examines whether capital structure promotes momentum trading in the Australian stock market. The data sample includes over 1800 stocks listed on the Australian Stock Exchange from 2000 to 2023. We construct momentum portfolios using the monthly rolling and overlapping techniques. Two ratios are calculated to measure the firms’ capital structure: the book-value and market-value financial leverages. Irrespective of the capital structure measure, the superior returns of the Winner quintile are concentrated in highly leveraged stocks. In contrast, the high-leverage Loser performs worst among the Loser quintile. The return of momentum strategy enhanced with capital structure is more than 1.5 times the original momentum profit. The risk-adjusted analysis paints a similar return pattern. Additionally, we observe high volatility in earnings and cash flows for highly leveraged stocks, leading to significant mispricing. Thus, the interaction between momentum and capital structure may stem from increased misvaluation, consistent with a behavioral explanation.</p>\u0000 </div>","PeriodicalId":44561,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Corporate Accounting and Finance","volume":"36 4","pages":"265-276"},"PeriodicalIF":1.2,"publicationDate":"2025-05-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145243147","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}
