本研究首先從經營績效、公司特性及公司治理角度探討財務主管之異動行為，並分析財務主管異動與後續經營績效及財務危機之關聯性。相關實證結果發現，前期經營績效不佳與內部治理愈差之公司會傾向更動財務主管，且當公司經營績效及財務狀況逐期惡化時，財務主管異動會較頻繁，但未發現控股結構複雜度與財務主管異動有關。此外，財務主管異動後之公司經營績效並無改善之跡象，符合惡性循環假說。財務主管異動與財務危機之研究結果發現，財務主管異動頻率與財務危機呈正向關係惟並不顯著，但若以下市或全額交割定義財務危機時，實證結果顯示，財務主管異動較頻繁、公司內部治理較差之公司，發生下市或全額交割之可能性愈高。 / This thesis examines the determinants of chief financial officer (CFO) turnover behavior and whether CFO turnover signals the operating performance of subsequent period. In addition, the association between CFO turnover and financial distress is also investigated. The empirical findings show that CFOs of firms with poor operating performance and weak internal governance environment are more likely to have turnovers. Deterioration in operating performance and financial conditions leads increase in frequency of the CFO turnover. Moreover, the CFO turnover tends to precede a poorer subsequent operating performance. While there is no association between the frequency of CFO turnover and occurrence of financial distress, it is found that higher the frequency of CFO turnover and poorer the internal governance environment, higher the probability of delisting of firms.

我國股市參與者向來以自然人為主，自然人所佔之比例約80%，即是一般俗稱的「散戶」。但散戶往往對於財務報表、業績、獲利能力等基本面資訊之依賴性極低，且無法使用及消化過於複雜之資訊，導致多數散戶投資者僅是抱著投機的心態盲目跟進，極容易成為公司內部人與市場中炒手不當得利的犧牲者。故本研究擬站在小額投資人之立場，嘗試由較為小額投資人熟知、容易瞭解且能直接反映企業營運優劣之「利潤」觀點出發，藉由分析損益表及現金流量表關鍵的財報資訊，可幫助投資人判讀企業體質好壞，進而能投資具成長性之企業，同時更能有效降低因投資失敗企業而遭受重大之損失之風險。 　　本研究以我國股票上市、上櫃、興櫃及公開發行公司為研究對象，探討所篩選出之損益與現金流量項目，對於評估企業經營績效與預測財務危機的效用，即判斷篩選的損益與現金流量項目是否對企業經營績效具有評價攸關性及對企業財務危機具有預測攸關性；並以獨立樣本t檢定、迴歸分析及Logistic分析，對假說進行檢定。 　　經過實證結果，獲致以下的結論： 1.損益與現金流量項目對企業經營績效之評價攸關性：本研究所選取之關鍵損益與現金流量項目均對企業短期、中期及長期經營績效具有顯著的解釋能力； 2.損益與現金流量項目對企業財務危機之預測攸關性：本研究所選取之關鍵損益與現金流量項目均對企業爆發財務危機前3年度內，區分出財務危機公司與正常公司之顯著差異，顯示所採取的變數具有差異性價值。 / The individual investors account for 80% as compared to 20% institutional investors, which characterized Taiwan’s stock market. Individual investors lack the capability to comprehend financial statements. They seldom rely on fundamental analysis of corporate performance to make investment decisions. In a stock market with the characteristics as Taiwan the individual investors are usually the victims of insider trading and market speculation. The purpose of this study is to identify certain financial items from income statement and the statement of cash flows which are easy to understand by the individual investors and are valuation relevant as well as possessing the capability to predict the financial distress of listed companies. Nine financial items from income statement and the statement of cash flows were selected for test and the results indicate that: 1.All selected financial items are valuation relevant in distinguishing short term, mid-term and long term operating performance. 2.All selected financial items are capable of predicting financial failure of enterprises three years preceding the financial distress emerge.

Le Capital-Investissement et plus particulièrement les opérations de LBO, occupent une place importante dans l'économie mondiale et française. Ce travail de recherche a pour objet l'analyse de l'impact des leviers organisationnels et de gouvernance sur la performance opérationnelle et la rentabilité des entreprises françaises sous LBO. Nous présentons ainsi, en premier lieu, dans les deux premiers chapitres de cette thèse, une revue complète de la littérature, ainsi que le modèle théorique de l'impact des leviers organisationnels et de gouvernance sur la performance opérationnelle et la rentabilité des entreprises sous LBO en privilégiant une approche actionnariale de la gouvernance.Ensuite, dans le cadre des troisième et quatrième chapitres de cette thèse, nous examinons de façon empirique, d'une part, l'impact de la mise en place des opérations de LBO sur la performance opérationnelle des entreprises françaises, et, d'autre part, les effets des leviers organisationnels et de gouvernance sur la rentabilité des entreprises françaises sous LBO.Nos résultats confirment en partie les résultats anglo-saxons concernant l'impact positif des opérations de LBO sur la performance de la société cible, ils sont obtenus en effectuant une double analyse comparative : la première en comparant l'évolution de la performance avant et après la mise en place du LBO, et la deuxième en effectuant une comparaison par rapport à un groupe de contrôle composé d'entreprises aux caractéristiques comparables mais qui n'ont pas fait l'objet d'un LBO.Enfin, nous proposons un modèle explicatif des effets des leviers organisationnels et de gouvernance sur la rentabilité des entreprises sous LBO. / Private Equity, especially Leverage Buyout activity (LBO), is now an important concern in the world economy and also in France. This kind of investment is an important alternative to capital market.The main purpose of this thesis is to examine the effects of corporate governance and organizational mechanisms on the performance of French firms leveraged buyout.We presented in the first part of this thesis, the first and second chapter of it, the history of the emergence of these investments in the world and especially in France, and an overview of the literature on private equity and leveraged buyouts, focusing on our theoretical framework which is based on corporate governance theories, especially on agency theory and financial performance.Moreover, we discussed the literature about the relation between operating performance, corporate governance and Leverage Buyout. As part of this thesis and in the third and fourth chapters, we proposed an empirical study of the impact of LBO on operating performance.This research also proposes a new approach to the relationship governance-performance by a financial modelling of the relation between corporate governance and performance in the case of leveraged buyout firms in France.This thesis is a contribution to the Leverage Buyout and Private Equity literature from a theoretical and empirical point of view. It also has implications for the managers of private firms.

在網路科技與技術科技日新月異的今天，消費者的需求隨著生活習慣的變化而不斷的在改變，企業必須進行服務創新才能在競爭激烈的市場與產業中佔有優勢。因此本文係以飯店業者為研究對象，以服務創新為主軸，針對可能會影響服務創新，或會因服務創新而受到影響的幾個研究構面進行探討，包括組織文化、服務品質與經營績效，分別探討個案公司在這些研究構面中有哪些作為，並分析構面間互相影響的關係。 本研究採用文獻分析法與個案分析法的方式撰寫，以深度訪談的方式進行個案公司的資料收集，並以過去學者提出的理論為基礎，將訪談收集來的資料對個案公司進行研究主題的分析。過程中採用的文獻理論，包括Wallach(1983)對組織文化的分類方式；Hertog(2000)提出的服務創新模型；Parasuraman, Zeithaml & Berry(1988)提出的服務品質五大衡量構面；Kaplan & Norton(1992)提出的平衡計分卡四大領域等。 研究結果發現，不同的組織文化類型會對公司的服務創新策略，甚至是經營策略造成影響，而成功的服務創新包含多個可能影響成敗的因子，包括新服務概念、新顧客介面、新服務傳遞系統與技術選項等；另外，許多企業在衡量經營績效時都認為非財務性的衡量指標比財務指標更重要，對企業經營整體的影響力更大；而經由對個案公司的訪談，本研究也發現，組織文化、服務創新、服務品質與經營績效等各構面間確實存在著互相影響的正向關係。

Essay one investigates registered insider sales as stated in the final prospectus filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) to test managerial market timing ability during the Seasoned Equity Offering (SEO) process. Using a comprehensive sample of 1,051 SEOs between 1997 and 2005, the findings suggest that the initial market reaction and the long-run post-issue performance of issuers are negatively related to C-level executive insider sales, but unrelated to sales by non-executive insiders. Overall, the findings are consistent with the notion that executive insiders are aware of the mispricing in their firm’s securities and successfully time their sales by participating in the secondary components of SEOs. The implication is that SEOs with C-level executive sales are overvalued relative to both SEOs without insider sales and SEOs with only non-executive insider sales. In the second essay, we compare shareholder wealth effects of dual-class and single-class Seasoned Equity Offerings (SEOs) between 1997 and 2005. While there is no difference in pre-issue stock performance or the initial market reaction to the SEO announcements, dual-class issuers significantly underperform single-class issuers in the post-issue years. The mean three-year underperformance of dual-class firms relative to single-class is a significant 28.93% (30.45%) in buy-and-hold raw (abnormal) stock returns, and robust to alternative model specifications. We document that this relative long-run stock underperformance is related to differences in the impacts of post-issue capital expenditures and acquisitions for dual and single-class issuers. Similarly, post-issue corporate cash holdings also contribute less to the shareholder wealth for dual-class firms.

企業之競爭策略，對於其生存與發展具有舉足輕重的影響力，而董事會依法對策略負有監督與協助制定之責，以提升企業績效，極大化股東財富。各理論學派也均同意董事會在策略制定上具有重要影響力。故本研究參考Baysinger and Robert (1990)及Pearce and Zahra (1992)等學者的理論架構，納入策略資源投入(衡量企業策略)，並依He and Mahoney (2006)之建議，將董事會特性劃分為董事會動機與能力兩部份，探討董事會動機與能力、策略資源投入及經營績效之關聯性。 本研究之主要研究結論包括： 1.董事會動機和能力與研發策略資源投入有顯著關聯性，但對其餘三種策略資 源投入(降低成本、行銷、品牌)無顯著影響。而Pearce and Zahra (1992)認為策略會影響董事會組成之看法，本研究實證結果並不支持。 2.董事之參與程度越高，企業之經營績效越好，而監察人之參與程度則與經營 績效無顯著之關聯性。 3.納入策略資源投入變數後，董事會動機與能力變數仍維持與企業績效呈顯著 相關，而整體模型解釋力提升。 4.董監持股與經理人持股對所有策略資源投入與經營績效關聯性有顯著影響， 而機構投資人持股、董事會規模、董事會專業性與董事會參與程度則對部份 策略資源投入與經營績效關聯性有顯著影響。 / A company’s competitive strategy plays a crucial role in its sustainable development. In order to escalate the performance of the company and maximize the wealth of the shareholders, the board should oversee in the process of formulating a strategy and assist when the strategy is under its way. All corporate governance theorists agree that the board has important influence on strategy planning. Adopting the framework of Baysinger and Robert (1990), and Pearce and Zahra (1992), this study takes “strategic resource input”(measuring corporate strategy) into another consideration. This research also divides the board characteristics into board motivation and capability according to the advices of He and Mahoney (2006). The present study aims to investigate the relationship among board motivation and capability, strategic resource input and operating performance. Several conclusions can be summarized as follows: First, the board motivation and capability is significantly related to R&D strategic resource input while the other three strategic resource input(cost-down, sale, patent) plays little role in this study. In addition, the empirical results don’t support what Pearce and Zahra (1992) claim that strategy will affect the board’s composition. Next, the results indicate that better operating performance is associated with higher participation figure of the directors but not the inspectors. Next, incorporating strategic resource input into the study enhances the explanatory power of the model whereas the effect of board motivation and capability on operating performance remains the same . Finally, the present study suggests that stock holdings of the board and the manager seem to have significant effect on the relationship of strategic resource input and operating performance. In addition, other factors, such as the board scale, professionalism and participation figure, have partial effect on the relationship between strategic resource input and operating performance.

The regulatory framework of many countries allows the upward revaluation of assets. Previous studies on the association of asset revaluation and future performance in Australia (Barth and Clinch, 1998), U.K. (Aboody, Barth and Kasznik, 1999) and Hong Kong (Jaggi and Tsui, 2001) have shown that upward asset revaluations are positively associated with the firm’s operating performance, suggesting that asset revaluations are value relevant. This study extends the previous research by focusing on the New Zealand environment with recent data to examine the association of upward asset revaluation and future operating performance. There is no obvious evidence indicating that upward revaluations are associated with operating performance in New Zealand. Our market assessments show that current year asset revaluations are related to share prices and returns, but are not statistically significant.

本文研究為經營績效與匯率波動之關聯性，以我國30家民營銀行各別加入日本匯率與美國匯率對銀行經營績效之影響進行分析研究，而匯率變動儼然是當前備受關注之重要議題，無論在我國金融機構或進出口廠商之銀行經營績效存在不確定性，因此，本文之探討動機以我國銀行為主體，觀察銀行之經營績效，受到匯率波動之影響。則應變數為資產報酬率，自變數為資本適足率、逾放比率、存放比率與匯率，則探討時期分成三階段，(1)2005年第四季至2013第四季整體期間經歷過金融海嘯；(2)2005第四季至2007年第四季前期期間未經歷過金融海嘯；(3)2009年第一季至2013年第四季後期期間經歷過金融海嘯後。使用Panel Data進行實證分析。如下分析三階段: (1)在整體期間經歷過金融海嘯，各別加入匯率，日本匯率與美國匯率都為負向不顯著，資本適足率與存放比率對是否有加入匯率關係都為正向顯著性，逾放比率為負向顯著性。 (2)在前期期間未經歷過金融海嘯，各別加入匯率，日本匯率為正向不顯著；美國匯率為正向顯著性，資本適足率與存放比率對是否有加入匯率關係都為正向顯著性，逾放比率為負向顯著性。 (3)在後期期間經歷過金融海嘯後，各別加入匯率，日本匯率為負向不顯著；美國匯率為負向顯著性，資本適足率與存放比率對是否有加入匯率關係都為正向顯著性，逾放比率為負向顯著性。 / In this paper, we research for the connection of the operating performance and the relevance of exchange rate fluctuations.

公司籌措資金時會選擇發行股票或是發行債劵來籌資，本文去比較發行股票與發行債劵來籌資的公司在發行後的長期營運表現會有何異同。此外去探討因子如何影響發行後營運表現，也建立邏輯斯迴歸去探討因子如何影響公司發行決策。關於資本結構有兩個理論，一為融資序位理論，另一為代理成本理論，本文透過上述結果去驗證此兩理論。 / Industrial corporations typically raise external capital by selling common stock or issuing bonds. In this paper, we investigate the long run operating performance of issuers of straight debt and issuers of seasoned equity. Besides, we measure the effects of some factors that have been shown to be associated with changes in performance following the issues. We also examine why firms issue securities even though managers know that stock prices will react negatively to the issue announcement. We construct a logistic model for firms issuing equity and debt to investigate the determinants of firms’ issuing decisions. In existing literature, two eminent theories of capital structure are the pecking order theory and agency cost theory. We try to find evidence to these two theories from the above results.
