<p>This study compares performance for founder-managed firms and professional-managed firms by analyzing 138 Canadian IPO firms that went public from 2004 to 2013. In this paper, we measure firm performance in two ways: Tobin’s Q and ROA are used to measure a firm’s financial performance, while firm survival status is used as a supplementary performance measure. We find that founder-managed firms underperform and underlive their counterparts when firm performance is measured by Tobin’s Q and survival status. Founder status is proved to be unrelated to ROA. The negative influence of founder status can be explained by the relevant transaction hypothesis, which states that founder-managers may act for the controlling family and are more concerned with the associated private income stream than with maximizing the value of the firm.</p>

The Impact

The current research article considers the impact of CEO overconfidence on firm performance for S&P BSE 200 firms. The CEO overconfidence is measured using revealed beliefs (holder 67, long holder and net buyer), press coverage and forecasting error proxies of CEO overconfidence. CEO Overconfidence measures are constructed as per the methodology of Malmendier and Tate (2005b, 2008). Firm performance is measured using Tobin’s Q and return on assets. The data are collected from the Centre for Monitoring Indian Economy (CMIE) prowess, S&P Capital IQ and the annual reports of the sample firms over a period of 15 years starting from 1 April 2000 to 31 March 2015. Regression results for each of the proxy of CEO overconfidence with the proxies of firm performance indicate that large Indian firms with overconfident CEOs enjoy a higher return on assets and Tobin’s Q as compared to the full sample firms. Overconfident CEOs consider themselves better-than-average, are involved with over-investment and show superior performance for the firm. The overconfident CEOs increase firm performance by following optimal levels of investments in the firm.

The Relationship

Purpose: The purpose of this study is to find the relationship of capital structure decision with the performance of the firms in the developing market economies like Pakistan.Methodology: Pooled Ordinary Least Square regression was applied to 36 engineering sector firms in Pakistani market listed on the Karachi Stock Exchange (KSE) during the period 2003-2009.Findings: The results show that financial leverage measured by short term debt to total assets (STDTA) and total debt to total assets (TDTA) has a significantly negative relationship with the firm performance measured by Return on Assets (ROA), Gross Profit Margin (GM) and Tobin’s Q. The relationship between financial leverage and firm performance measured by the return on equity (ROE) is negative but insignificant. Asset size has an insignificant relationship with the firm performance measured by ROA and GM but negative and significant relationship exists with Tobin’s Q. Firms in the engineering sector of Pakistan are largely dependent on short term debt but debts are attached with strong covenants which affect the performance of the firm.Originality/Value: This is first paper to study an individual sector like engineering industry in Pakistan on the mentioned topic.

The purpose of this study was to analyze the effect of accrual earnings management by discretionary revenue approach on firm performance in manufacturing companies listed on the Stock Exchange. The Results of analysis for this study were 1) Accrual earnings management is measured using a Revenue Model does not affect the Return On Asset. 2) Accrual earnings management is measured using a Revenue Model does not affect the Tobin’s q. 3) Accrual earnings management is measured using a Conditional Revenue Models effect on the Return On Asset. 4) Accrual earnings management is measured using a Conditional Revenue Models has no effect on Tobin’s q.

The Impact

The purpose of this study was to discuss the impact of the extent of internationalization on firm performance measured for firms with a high Tobin’s Q (firms with good operating performance), a median Tobin’s Q (firms with average operating performance), and a low Tobin’s Q (firms with poor operating performance). In addition to discussion on the impact of internationalization on firm performance, this study also discussed the impact of corporate proprietary assets (using assets, R&D, marketing, and management-related variables as moderating variables) and control variables (scale of company, debt-asset ratio, firm age, board structure, and proportion of pledged shares by directors) on firm performance. The research results showed that there is an S-shaped relationship between extent of internationalization and firm performance. However, further discussion found that there is an S-shaped relationship between extent of internationalization and performance for firms with a high Tobin’s Q but a slight decline in the middle of the S-shaped curve, as well as a general linear negative correlation between extent of internationalization and performance for firms with a median Tobin’s Q and an inverted U-shaped correlation between extent of internationalization and performance for firms with a low Tobin’s Q.

The eminence of corporate governance (CG) was grasped after the major blunders incorporate strategies and distinct corporate scandals around the world during the global financial crises. Advanced countries have passed numerous laws such as “Say on Pay” or the Sarbanes-Oxley Act to shield the shareholder’s wealth. However, evolving countries are still flourishing to gain recognition in corporate governance (CG) effectiveness. The intention of the study is to probe the link between the CG (board size, outside directors) and firm performance (Tobin’s Q). Leverage has been used as an interaction term in the current study. The data had been collected from 130 non-financial firms from the year 2012 to 2015 and Multiple Regression Techniques will be used as the instruments for data analysis. The results indicate that the board size and Tobin’s Q have a significant association and outside directors’ insignificant association with Tobin’s Q. The interaction effect of leverage found a significant connotation between board size, outside directors, and Tobin’s Q.

The study is aimed at investigating the following issues: firstly, whether the different types of working capital, namely operating and non-operating working capital influence the short-term (return on assets) and long-term (Tobin’s Q) firm performance differently, and secondly whether the different measures of operating working capital, namely disaggregated and aggregated (cash conversion cycle) operating working capital, influence the short-term (return on assets) and long-term (Tobin’s Q) firm performance differently. It uses the panel data of 208 listed non-financial firms in Malaysia covering the period from 2013 to 2017, and the data has been sourced from Datastream. It employs the panel corrected standard errors regression model. The study has found that quicker sale of inventory increased both the short-term and long-term performance of the firm. Likewise, faster collection of receivables increased the long-term, but not short- term, performance. However, prompter payment of payables increased both the short-term and long-term performance. The study has also found that the disaggregated working capital measures – inventory, receivables, and payables contributed to a more nuanced influence of working capital on performance, compared to the aggregated working capital. The study has provided novel evidence that– higher non- operating working capital increased firm performance.
