This study was carried out to examine the economic consequences ofvoluntary environmental reporting on shareholders' wealth among Malaysian Listed Companies that voluntarily disclosed environmental information in their financial report. One hundred andfifty two (152) companies of Bursa Malaysia (MSE) had been identified as a sample in the current study. Seventy six (76) companies were classified as environmental reporting companies while the remaining companies were classified as non-environmental reporting companies. The classification was done in order to determine the differences between share price, profitability and market equity for both types of companies. The study hypothesizes that voluntary environmental reporting leads to an improvement in the shareholders wealth. However, the results show that there is no significant difference between cumulative abnormal return for environmental and non-environmental reporting companies. Based on the results obtained, it can also be concluded that profitability and size of the companies do not have any significant roles in deciding whether or not to produce environmental reporting companies.

AbstractThe recent financial crisis that began in 2007, also known as the Global Financial Crisis, had a huge influence on the financial situations of enterprises and financial institutions around the world. The situation on world stock markets was also strongly affected by the crisis. As the behavior of investors may be affected by various factors which can impact their decisions on the stock exchanges, some of them may be unable to act in a rational manner and make the right decisions. The huge drop in share prices on world stock markets was visible in the early stages of the crisis. The share price does not always reflect the real situation of the company. The main purpose of this article is to evaluate the influence of the recent financial crisis on the financial situation and performance of Polish listed companies. Financial ratios will be utilized to evaluate the real changes in the financial situation of Polish listed companies during the crisis. A large group of companies will be covered by the survey in order to assess the impact of macroeconomic factors on the financial situations of enterprises in different phases of the crisis. Market tests will not be applied because they may be affected by changes in share prices which in turn are often affected by irrational decision-making and fear.

Integrated corporate reporting (ICR), which entails the process of compiling, documenting and reporting on company’s resources, its ongoing relationships with key stakeholders; business models; products (services); and the impact of such products (or services) on stakeholders, society, as well as the environment to optimize company value, has generated considerable interest among top 100 Johannesburg Stock Exchange (JSE) listed companies in South Africa over the last decade. Despite the surging interest in ICR to leverage the social responsibility, transparency and public accountability of companies in the developing African countries, little is known about the combined influence of ICR and internal company resources and/ capabilities (e.g., age and experience of the Chief Executive Officer (CEO)) on the performance of South African listed companies. The main objective of this study, therefore, is to examine the impact of Integrated Reporting Ratings (IRR); the company CEO’s age; and his/her years as a CEO on the share price of the company within the South African context. The top-106 JSE listed companies for the period Year-end 2014 constitute the sample for this study. Multivariate non-parametric regression is used to model the relationship between the predictor (i.e., independent) variables and the response (i.e., dependent) variable using MATLAB. The model developed in this study is, then, used to evaluate the impact of IRR; the CEO’s age and years of experience as CEO on the share price of individual companies. The proposed methodology is illustrated step-by-step. The finding of the study reveal that the share price of a company tended to increase with an increase in IRR, age and years of experience of the CEO, demonstrating that a company’s established history in integrated reporting and corporate experience positively impact its performance (i.e., the share price). Keywords: integrated corporate reporting, corporate responsibility, JSE listed companies, MATLAB. JEL Classification: G17

Effect of accounting information on the share price has been having the share of attention from researchers for over six decades owing to the increasing of global financial crisis. Hence, this study attempts to contribute to literature by investigating such relationship in Jordan, a developing country. Specifically, this study investigates the relationship between the cash flow and accruals on share price of listed companies on Amman Stock Exchange for the year 2002 to 2014 also the effect of financial crisis on the share price before and after 2008. The model of this study was theoretically founded on both the agency and the signaling theories. To examine the developed model, the required data were gathered from the annual reports of 236 listed Companies. In analyzing the data, this study utilized the panel data methodology on 117 companies with 1521 observations. Moreover, this study used audit quality (audit firm size and audit tenure) as moderating variable. Based on the panel data results, the fixed effect model was used to examine the effect of the cash flows and accruals on the share price. The accruals and cash flows combined have significant effects on the share prices of the Jordanian companies listed on ASE. Audit quality, whether auditor’s firm size or auditor’s tenure, has significant moderating effect on associations of the share prices with accruals and with cash flows and the 2008 financial crisis had negative effects on share prices of the Jordanian companies listed on ASE. This study provides deep insights into relative usefulness of cash-based and accrual-based accounting measures and assist investors, regulators, analysts, and other stakeholders in evaluating the liquidity and financial performance of Jordanian companies listed on ASE, which may result in better allocation of economic resources by enabling the investors to take informed investment decisions, thus promoting a more efficient Jordanian capital market.
