Hedging, Asymmetric Exposures, and Firm value: Evidence from U.S. Oil and Gas companies

方曉薇, Fang, Hsiao-Wei Unknown Date (has links)
This paper investigates the influence of hedging on firm value and stock return exposures in U.S. oil and gas industry from 1998 to 2004. Previous empirical results show that the relationship between firm value and corporate hedging activities is mixed. We find that the trend and volatility of oil and gas prices play important roles in the issue. Our results indicate that corporate exposures to oil and gas prices are asymmetric. We also find that gas reserve hedging has significant impacts on firm value when volatility of gas price is high. In conclusion, our results show that corporate hedging policies may add firm values in some special situations.
