Security Choice and Convertible Bond Issuance Announcement EffectChao, Yu-Hsin 10 February 2003 (has links)
The objects this thesis want to study can be separated into two parts. The first part is investigating why firms choose to issue convertible bond. We use the public financial information and macroeconomics factors to establish a security choice model. In this security choice model, we can understand the motivation of issuance and investors¡¦ expectation of security type (equity-like or debt-like) which will be issued. The second part of this thesis is about convertible bond issuance announcement effect. We want to know if the public information and the pre-issuance security type expectation would affect the announcement effect. Following is the conclusions: (1) We find that less information asymmetry, less agency cost, more operating risk will lead to higher probability of equity-like security issuance. (2) Most convertible bonds issued in Taiwan are more debt-like. (3) Equity-like convertible bonds issuances have negative announcement effect. The issuances different from expectation will lead to more negative price effect, especially those debt-like firm but issue equity-like security. (4) The variables that can explain security choice may not explain the announcement price effect.

TWO ESSAYS ON BORROWING FROM BANKS AND LENDING SYNDICATESMaskara, Pankaj Kumar 01 January 2007 (has links)
A loan deal is often composed of several components (for example, a 3-year revolving loan, a 10-year secured senior term loan, and a 5-year subordinated term loan). The division of a deal into two or more components, each with different risk characteristics, is called tranching. This study recognizes the importance of tranching and establishes tranching as an integral component of a syndicated loan structure. In the first essay, we present a model to explain the economic value of tranching and show that riskier firms are more likely to take loans with multiple tranches. Therefore, the average credit spread on syndicated loans with multiple tranches is higher than that on nontranched loans. However, after accounting for the risk characteristics of a tranched loan, we show that a given tranche of a multi-tranche loan, on average, has a lower credit spread than an otherwise similar loan that is not part of a multi-tranche loan. We also show that the benefits of tranching accrue primarily to borrowers with speculative debt ratings. Prior studies have found an abnormal stock return of 100 to 150 basis points for firms that announce they have borrowed funds from a bank. Despite some conflicting evidence (Peterson and Rajan, 2002; Thomas and Wang, 2004; Billett, Flannery and Garfinkel, 2006), the literature tends to interpret this positive bank loan announcement effect as the markets response to the mitigation of information asymmetry regarding the borrowing firm caused by the certification role of the lending banks who act as quasi-insiders. In the second essay, we document that a strong selection bias exists in prior studies. We show that less than a quarter of the loans made by banks are ever announced by borrowing firms and the loans that are announced are systematically different from loans that are never announced by the firms. Firms with low debt ratings, firms with zero or negative profits but positive interest expense, firms that take large loans in relation to their assets base, firms with little analyst following, and firms with high forecasted EPS growth are more likely to announce their loans. We show that while there was a positive announcement effect over the period 1987 to 1995, loan announcements elicited zero or negative returns in the last ten years as the mix of companies announcing loans changed over time.

There are more and more enterprises using private placement after private placement is permitted in Taiwan in 2002. It shows that private placement is becoming one choice for public companies to raise capital.

The results of the study as follows¡G
1.Public enterprises¡¦ private placement did not have a significant announcement effect; it maybe because that most public enterprises with private placement were small enterprises, when they announced private placement did not catch investors attentions.
2.Insiders know more information than general investors, and most private placement rose from insiders. It maybe shows that insiders think enterprises would get better after private placement. So insiders got major portion of private placement maybe the reason of the significant positive of one year stock price performance after private placement.

An Empirical Study on the Impacts of the Unlocking of the Stocks Issued Through Private Placements Based on the Statistical Analysis of Excess Returns and Announcement EffectsLiu, Wei January 2021 (has links)
Since 2000, the Chinese securities market has introduced private placement refinancing programs from foreign markets. Private placement has gradually emerged as an important refinancing method for domestic listed companies in China. However, any emerging financing means has some drawbacks. In the case of the newly introduced private placements, its manifestation in the Chinese market is the significant fluctuations of stock prices before and after the expiration dates of the lockup periods for stocks issued through private placement and announcements of private placement plans (disclosure plans, receiving approval from the China Securities Regulatory Commission, etc.) and even significant declines, resulting in most investors suffering unexpected losses. Scholars abroad have conducted several systematic and extensive studies on private placement. However, owing to the short history of private placement practice in China and its unique features, research on this subject is limited. With its gradual maturity, the private placement practice has gradually emerged as important means of financing consideration for listed companies in China. Therefore, in-depth research on the effects of private placements becomes essential.From 2013 to 2016, the domestic private placement market was wisely popular. By the end of 2016, the number of private placement projects, the amount of investment, and number of unlocked stocks had reached the peak. The release of large amounts of money significantly impacted the market. Investors observed the impact of the unlocked stocks on excess returns. Moreover, the company’s announcement before and after the lock-in period expiration has a psychological effect on investors, thus affecting their investment behaviors. Therefore, this empirical study focuses on the two types of impacts: excess returns and announcement effects.
This study selected the data of unlocking through private placement of A shares in 2013–2016 as the sample and adopted statistical methods to analyze changes in excess return over the Shanghai and Shenzhen 300 Index of 10 days before and after the lock-in period expiration date of private placements. It is found that the negative impact of unlocking on the stock price is mainly reflected before unlocking, especially in the 5 trading days before unlocking. The negative impact is not significant after unlocking. Then, by grouping comparison, it is shown that for stocks with different market capitalizations, company ownership structures, and percentages of unlocked stocks over total shares outstanding, there are significant differences in the cumulative excess returns before and after the lock-in period expiration dates. For further verification, this study applies multiple regressions on the influencing factors of the cumulative excess return of stocks before, during, and after unlocking, indicating that the level of market capitalization of the stock, company ownership structure, and the percentage of unlocked stock indeed exert a negative impact. Therefore, it is confirmed that investors can formulate the best trading strategy before and after unlocking, based on factors such as market capitalization, company ownership structure, and percentages of unlocked stock. Finally, a case study of Huangshan Tourism is carried out to further support the conclusion of the empirical analysis. / Business Administration/Finance

The announcement effect of private placements of hybrid securities in AustraliaTan, Juan Edward, Banking & Finance, Australian School of Business, UNSW January 2004 (has links)
This thesis investigates the share price response to the announcement of private placements of hybrid securities in Australia. Firstly, the size and direction of the share price response is examined. Secondly, the determinants of the share price response are examined. Where possible, comparisons are made to evidence from international markets. The sample of data tested consists of 43 announcements of convertible debt issues, 39 announcements of preference share issues and 19 announcements of option issues made between 1983 and 2000 by Australian firms. The analysis of the share price impact in response to the announcements is conducted using Maynes and Rumsey (1993) event study methodology that adjusts for thin trading. The determinants of the share price response are examined using model specifications that are derived from the theoretical literature. The analysis of the announcement effect of private placements of hybrid securities finds significant negative abnormal returns for convertible debt issues, insignificant negative abnormal returns for preference share issues and significant positive abnormal returns for option issues. In comparison to international studies, the convertible debt results are similar to public and rights issues, the insignificant preference share results are similar to other findings and the option results are similar to private placements of equity and rights issues of options. The results of the investigation of the determinants of the announcement effect of private placements of hybrid securities finds that convertible debt issues are best explained by information asymmetry - firm and issue characteristics, the information asymmetry - external monitors hypothesis, the information asymmetry - dynamic hypothesis and the agency cost hypothesis. The impact of preference share issues is best explained by information asymmetry - firm and issue characteristics, the information asymmetry - external monitors hypothesis, the agency cost hypothesis and the price pressure hypothesis. The announcement effect of option issues is best explained by information asymmetry - firm and issue characteristics, the information asymmetry -dynamic hypothesis and the optimal capital structure hypothesis.

The Effects Of The Inflation Targeting Regime On The Istanbul Stock ExchangeBolukbasi, Firuze 01 February 2009 (has links) (PDF)
The primary purpose of this study is to test the effects of inflation targeting in Turkey in terms of providing stability in the financial system by lowering the volatility in the Turkish stock market. Although there are many factors other than monetary policy which can affect stock market volatility, this study examines whether the volatility due to monetary policy can be reduced by increasing the accuracy of investors&rsquo / expectations about the central bank&rsquo / s future actions. In the first part, a &ldquo / Volatility Analysis&rdquo / is conducted for three sub-periods including the pre- and post-periods of the implementation of inflation targeting in order to see whether the volatility in the Istanbul Stock Exchange changed over time. Second, an &ldquo / Announcement Effect Analysis&rdquo / is carried out by using the central bank&rsquo / s interest rate and inflation rate announcement dates in order to evaluate how investors&rsquo / expectations react to a change in these rates during period from 2002 to 2007. Finally, a &ldquo / Combined Analysis&rdquo / is done in order to examine the relationship between the returns in the Turkish stock market and the surprise caused by the realized interest and inflation rates being different from their expected values.
The empirical findings about the level of volatility indicate that there is a decline in volatility of the Istanbul Stock Exchange returns when volatility is compared on a pre- and post-policy period basis. Also, it is found that the announcement effect was present, meaning interest rate announcements generally came as a surprise to stock market participants. However, this announcement effect has a notably decreasing trend from 2002 to 2007 which is another evidence of the inflation targeting regime&rsquo / s success at reducing stock market volatility. Finally, the &ldquo / combined analysis&rdquo / shows that CBT&rsquo / s power to effect stock returns and to direct investors&rsquo / expectations increases from 2002 to 2007.

The Event Study of Corporation¡¦s Capital Deducted by Returning Cash on Stock PricesKuo, Lee-yuan 03 July 2009 (has links)
TSEC and OTC listed companies conduct capital increase by retained earnings and stock dividend distribution numerously and that weakens performance of return on equity (ROE), return on asset (ROA) and earnings per share (EPS) and increases stress on managements. Since Formosa International Hotels Corporation pioneered in reducing capital and returning cash to shareholders, this topic has commonly discussed in capital market. Has a company been unable to utilize cash efficiently, reducing capital followed by returning cash to shareholders is a practical option to elevate financial ratio. This study discusses the effect on stock price subsequent to announcement of reducing capital followed by returning cash to shareholders.
This study adopts event study to discuss the effect on stock price after declaring reducing capital and returning cash to shareholders and the sample size covers 27 TSEC and OTC listed companies which conducted capital reduction followed by returning cash to shareholders. The results are as follows: 1.The stock price shows positive effect when a company announces reducing capital followed by returning cash to shareholders for the first time. On the date of announcement and the first date after announcement, the average abnormal returns are generated evidently. Accumulated abnormal returns reach the highest level on the date of announcement and the first two days after announcement. Therefore, announcement effect of reducing capital followed by returning cash to shareholders is effective in short term. 2.Based on regression model analysis, return on asset, ratio of reducing capital and P/E ratio are positively correlated with announcement of reducing capital followed by returning cash to shareholders.

企業進行購併與其公司規模關係朱淳銘 Unknown Date (has links)
本研究搜集研究期間為1989-2005年2月的購併樣本,將主併公司按市值區分大小後,發現大公司在事件窗口(-30,10)有顯著負向的累積異常報酬率(Cumulative Abcdrmal Return;CAR),大公司在上市市場上,在金融證券業及其他產業下都有顯著負向的累積異常報酬率;大公司顯著有較高的現金比例、營運現金流量比例、Tobin’s Q和較低的帳面對市場價值比,在除去金融證券業樣本後,負債比率顯著小於小公司;集團購併、當被併公司為上市櫃、及以股票為支付方式時,大公司也都有顯著負向的累積異常報酬率;大公司購併時的相對規模顯著小於小公司。迴歸結果中,公司規模之替代變數皆顯著和累積異常報酬成負向關係。股票支付方式其累積異常報酬也顯著低於現金支付方式。Tobin’s Q的係數則顯著為正。在產業部份,金融證券業和其他產業相較之下,在宣佈購併時會得到市場較正面的反應。企業併購法的修訂實行對迴歸式並未造成結構性的改變。 / After collecting the acquisition samples of bidding firms from 1989 to February 2005 and differentiate their sizes, we found large firms have significant negative CAR (Cumulative Abcdrmal Return) in the windows of (-30,10). Large firms have significant negative CAR in public market, financial and security industry, and other industries. Large firms have higher ratio of cash/book assets, operating cash flow/book assets, Tobin’s Q and lower B/M ratio. They also have lower debt ratio after removing the samples in financial and security industry. Large firms also have significant negative CAR when they are conglomerates, the targets of theirs are public companies, or when they use equity as the method of payment. The relative size of large firms is much smaller than that of small firms. In the result of regression, the proxy of firm size has negative relation with CAR. Using equity as the method of payment has lower announcement return than cash. Tobin’s Q has a positive coefficient. Financial and security industry can get more positive responses from investors than other industries. Finally, the revised edition of Business Mergers and Acquisitions Act which has been brought into force on May, 5, 2004 does not cause structural changes in the regression models.
