摘要

本研究的目的是研究财务杠杆对沙特上市公司业绩的影响。它特别提出了根据企业盈利能力和企业规模来检验这种关系的异质性。设计/方法/方法本文使用了2017-2020年期间在Tadawul证券交易所上市的120家非金融公司的样本。数据来源于公司的财务报告。本研究采用系统GMM和分位数回归。第一种方法检验了杠杆决策对公司绩效的影响,而第二种方法检验了这种关系的异质性。sgmm结果在资产收益率、股票收益率和托宾q方面证明了杠杆对企业绩效的不利影响。此外,分位数回归结果表明,这种关系是异质性的。特别是,杠杆似乎对高利润公司的业绩比低利润公司有更大的不利影响。此外,杠杆在大公司中具有负面影响,而在小公司中则变为负面影响。原创性/价值本研究的独特之处在于,它从不同的角度探讨了资本结构问题,其中杠杆决策在公司盈利能力和公司规模的各个层面上都得到了明显的考虑。此外,现有的大多数研究都是在发达国家进行的。然而,鉴于新兴国家体制结构的特殊性,研究结果可能不适用于这些国家。在这方面,沙特阿拉伯拥有独特的商业环境,其特点是没有公司税,债券市场流动性差。

The heterogeneous effect of leverage on firm performance: a quantile regression analysis
Purpose The purpose of this study is to look at the effect of financial leverage on the performance of Saudi listed companies. It particularly proposes to examine the heterogeneity of this relationship depending on firm profitability and firm size. Design/methodology/approach The paper uses a sample of 120 nonfinancial companies listed on the Tadawul stock exchange during the period 2017–2020. Data is obtained from the companies’ financial reports. This study uses the system GMM and the quantile regression. The first methodology examines the effect of leverage decisions on firm performance, whereas the second one tests the heterogeneity of this relationship. Findings GMM results demonstrate the adverse effect of leverage on firm performance in terms of return on assets, return on equities and Tobin’s Q. Besides, quantile regression results show that this relationship is heterogeneous. Particularly, leverage seems to have a greater adverse effect on the performance of high-profitable firms than low-profitable firms. Moreover, leverage has a negative effect in larger firms, whereas the influence becomes negative in smaller ones. Originality/value This study is unique in that it approaches the capital structure issue from a different perspective, where the leverage decision is distinctly considered at various levels of firm profitability and firm size. In addition, the majority of the existing studies is carried out in developed countries. However, the results might not apply to emerging countries given the specificity of their institutional structure. In this regard, Saudi Arabia has a distinctive business climate characterized by the absence of corporate tax and an illiquid bond market.
