The Impacts of Firm Characteristics on Announcement Effects of Initial Global Equity Offerings / 公司特性對首次海外存託憑證發行宣告效果影響之研究

碩士 / 朝陽科技大學 / 企業管理系碩士班 / 92 / As more and more domestic companies raise funds through global equity offerings, we examine the announcement effects of global depository receipts (GDRs) on corporate value. Our sample includes 75 event companies with initial global equity offering listed on Taiwan Stock Exchange during Jan. 1991 to Jun. 2003. The results show that announcement of GDRs is not accompanied with a significant effect on corporate value, but the announcement effects are related to information asymmetry, growth opportunity, firm size, prior stock return, and export ratio. We find that companies with higher information asymmetry, larger growth opportunity, smaller size, lower prior stock return, and higher export ratio would be associated with better announcement effects. In addition, companies with initial equity offerings usually have better long-term performance than their matching firms, and this long-term performance is related to prior firm characteristics as well.
