We develop a theoretical model where a firm finances a risky project that is subject to a liquidity shock. External lenders are imperfectly informed about both project risk and the firm's liquidity, which leads to moral hazard. We identify conditions under which it is optimal for the firm to fund the project using a term loan from a less informed lender and manage liquidity using a line of credit from an informed lender.</p>","PeriodicalId":47584,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Financial Research","volume":"48 1","pages":"149-166"},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2024-05-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141196656","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Using a large sample of PIPEs issued by Chinese listed firms from 2006 to 2019, we find that the effective discount and long-term buy-and-hold abnormal stock returns of PIPEs with existing shareholder participation are significantly higher than those with only new investor participation, after controlling for heterogeneous types of PIPE investors. However, the superior post-PIPE stock performance of deals with existing shareholders is not driven by improved operating performance but by tunneling activities such as frequent dividend announcements, related-party transactions, and positive earnings management during the lock-up period. Our findings suggest that the effect of existing shareholders’ participation in private equity placements is more consistent with the tunneling hypothesis than the certification hypothesis. We document that the tunneling incentives are stronger when firms face greater financial constraints and can be mitigated when the firm's corporate governance is stronger.</p>","PeriodicalId":47584,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Financial Research","volume":"48 1","pages":"351-385"},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2024-05-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140972625","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A possible explanation for this premium is based on mispricing correction, due in part to investors' overvaluation related to investment. In this article, we argue that a correction of any type is more likely to occur when stock prices are further away from their 52-week high. To the extent that the 52-week high acts as a viable anchor, when stocks are closer to this anchor, investors might become less inclined to contribute to the typical downward correction for these types of growth firms. In several tests, we find that stocks that are furthest away exhibit the strongest return premium. The return premium, however, begins to disappear as stocks approach their 52-week high.
