This book was released on 2017-07-05 with total page 137 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this timely volume on newly emerging financial mar- kets and investment strategies, Arvin Ghosh explores the intriguing topic of initial public offerings (IPOs) of securities, among the most significant phenomena in the United States stock markets in recent years. Before the 2000-2001 market turndown, hardly a week went by when more than a few companies did not become public, either in the organized stock exchange or in the Over the Counter (OTC) market. In the often over-burdened, technology-heavy Nasdaq market, the role of IPOs was crucial for the market's new vigor and growth. Internet stocks were able to find a mode to supply key momentum to the market. In the so-called "New Economy" of the 1990s, it was the seductively accessible IPO that ushered in the world's information technology revolution.Ghosh sets out to examine the pricing and financial performance of IPOs in the United States during the period 1990-2001. In the opening chapter he discusses the rise and fall of IPOs in the preceding decade. Chapter 2 further delineates the IPO process from the start of the prospectus to the end of the "quiet period" and aftermarket stabilization. In chapter 3 Ghosh analyzes the mispricing and deliberately deceptive underpricing, or "flipping," of Internet IPOs. Chapter 4 delves deeper into the pricing and operating efficiency of Nasdaq IPOs. Chapter 5 analyzes the pricing and long-run performance of IPOs both in the New York Stock Exchange and in the Nasdaq markets. In chapters 6 and 7 the author deals with the pricing and performance of the venture-blocked and nonventure-backed IPOs in general and Internet IPOs in particular. In chapter 8 he analyzes the role of underwriters as market makers. In chapter 9 Ghosh discusses the accuracy of analysts' earnings forecasts. In the concluding chapter, he summarizes the principal findings of the study and the recent revival of the IPO market and its place in capital formation as well as the latest developments in t

Book Synopsis The Long-run Operating Performance of Initial Public Offerings by : Asjeet S. Lamba
Download or read book The Long-run Operating Performance of Initial Public Offerings written by Asjeet S. Lamba and published by . This book was released on 2001 with total page 34 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The after-market and long-run price behavior of initial public offerings (IPOs) has generated considerable research interest. Previous studies have generally found that IPOs are underpriced at issue, but typically underperform benchmark portfolios in the long-run. Relatively less attention has been paid to why IPOs underperform benchmark portfolios in the long-run, particularly in IPO markets that are smaller than the US IPO market and where the institutional environment differs as well. In this paper, we provide the first comprehensive empirical analysis of the long-run operating performance of IPOs in Australia during 1991 94, and attempt to relate the level of underpricing to their pre- and post-issue operating performance and the long-run price behavior.

Download or read book The Operating Performance of Initial Public Offerings written by Arif Khurshed and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 29 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We study the post-issue operating performance of UK Initial Public Offerings. Using several measures, we find that the performance of firms going public on the Official List deteriorates significantly after the issue. On the contrary, IPO-firms on the Alternative Investment Market (AIM) use the IPO as springboard for growth without sacrificing their profitability. The AIM is, indeed, the first market where operating performance is not found to be declining after the IPO. The listing on the AIM does not affect significantly the leverage of the firms, but gives the opportunity to raise fresh funds, both at the time of the initial offering and through further (debt or equity) capital raisings. Conversely, the permanent decrease in leverage after the IPO on the Official List characterizes the flotation on this market as a mean to rebalance the firms' capital structure.

Book Synopsis Initial Public Offerings – An inside view by : Rolf J. Daxhammer
Download or read book Initial Public Offerings – An inside view written by Rolf J. Daxhammer and published by UVK Verlag. This book was released on 2017-11-13 with total page 217 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In a corporations financial life going public by means of an IPO is probably the single most important decision. It turns a private company into a public one. Our book will provide an inside view of the IPO process. On the one hand, it draws on the insights of an experienced investment banker, who has gone through numerous IPO transactions. On the other hand, it relates the story of an actual IPO through the eyes of a Chief Executive Officer who has taken two of his companies public. This unique double perspective is our books defining feature. We do not discuss initial public offerings in a textbook style fashion. What we would like to bring out is a more comprehensive portrayal of a once-in-a-lifetime event for most companies and their management, alike.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A fully revised and updated second edition of the essential guide that tells you everything you want to know about IPOs in the UK. An initial public offering (IPO) - the occasion when a firm's shares are issued to the public for the first time - is one of the most exciting events in the life of a company, providing new opportunities for the business, its managers and for investors. IPOs attract a lot of attention from stock market researchers, academics and investors seeking to understand more about how they work and how the shares of IPO companies perform once they are listed. In this second edition of Initial Public Offerings, Arif Khurshed delves into the history of IPOs on the London Stock Exchange, explains the mechanics of how IPOs are arranged and how they are priced, and provides an analysis - with detailed but lucid reference to past academic studies - of how the shares of IPO companies perform in the short and long term. The book provides valuable insight into many fundamental IPO matters, including: - the different methods of flotation that are used, - the alternative ways in which IPO shares are priced, - how common it is for IPO shares to over or underperform, - the survival of IPO firms once they are listed. There are also detailed case studies of the short- and long-run performance of a number of high-profile IPOs, including those of Facebook, Alibaba and Royal Mail. If you are an academic, finance professional or serious investor looking to broaden your knowledge of stock market flotations then you will find Initial Public Offerings to be an indispensable guide.
Book Synopsis Initial Public Offerings by : Michelle Lowry
Download or read book Initial Public Offerings written by Michelle Lowry and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page 166 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this monograph is to provide an overview of the IPO literature since 2000. The fewer numbers of companies going public in recent years has raised many questions regarding the IPO process, in both academic and regulatory circles. As we all strive to understand these changes in the market, it is especially important to understand the dynamics underlying the IPO process. If the process of going public is too costly or the IPO mechanism is plagued by too many conflicts of interest among the various intermediaries, then private companies may rationally choose other methods of raising capital. In a related vein, it is imperative that new regulations not be based on research focusing solely on large, more mature firms. Newly public firms have unique characteristics, and an increased understanding of such issues will contribute positively to well-functioning public markets and further growth of the entrepreneurial sector. We also provide a detailed guide to researchers on how to obtain a research-quality sample of IPOs, from standard data sources. Related to this, we tabulate important corrections to these standard data sources.

Book Synopsis Performance of Companies Around Initial Public Offerings by : Wayne H. Mikkelson
Download or read book Performance of Companies Around Initial Public Offerings written by Wayne H. Mikkelson and published by . This book was released on 1999 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We examine the operating performance and stock of companies that make an initial public offering of common stock. In the year before offerings, operating performance is quite favorable, but following offerings operating performance declines and market-adjusted stock returns are negative. We find a positive correlation between the changes in operatingperformance and the post-offering stock returns, which supports the idea that initial public offering are timed to exploit investors' overly optimistic assessments of future performance. After offerings the operating performance of established companies is similar to the performance of industry-matched firms, but the operating performance of start-up companies is below the performance of comparison firms. The performance of start-up companies appears to reflect the early stages of expansion.

Abstract: Abstract of the thesis entitled Accounting and Stock Performance of Initial Public Offerings and Seasoned Equity Offerings: Evidence in China Submitted By OUYANG Liangyi For the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy at the University of Hong Kong in August 2004 Although it has a short history, the China stock market developed very fast in the past decade. Stock is now a primary investment instrument for Chinese. This research studies the long-term accounting and stock performance of initial public offerings and seasoned equity offerings in China. We find that operating performance of initial public offerings and seasoned equity offerings in China experience substantial deterioration in the post-issue period. Issuers typically have significant higher earnings and sales revenue than their industry peers before year 0. However, their advantages shrink to nothing in a short period. Extraordinarily high current accruals are reported in year 0, which consist of a large discretionary component after broken down by a Jones (1991) model. We attribute the unusual changes in accruals and operating performance to be a result of earnings management. Moreover, we find that both absolute and discretionary current accruals in year 0 are powerful in predicting changes of income and cash flow in the following three years. This finding further strengthens the hypothesis that managers dress up their earnings to meet the earnings threshold by recording aggressive accruals, which cause earnings reverse in the aftermarket period. Investors are surprised at the poor earnings. Earnings announcement effects, measured by 3-, 9- and 21-day market-adjusted abnormal returns are significantly negative in post-issue period. We also find stock offerings have negative buy-and-hold abnormal ii returns in a three-year window. Both IPOs and SEOs have around 30% less returns than size-matched non-issuers. However, when the matching standard changes to be size and book-to-market ratio, the abnormal returns are reduced by half and not significant for SEOs. We also apply the Fama and French (1993) model to monthly trading data of issuers. The result shows that the time-weighted abnormal return is not significant. We consider this difference to be a result of the time-clustering and cyclical pattern of stock issues in China. Due to high volumes of stock issues in periods of high past returns and low volumes in periods of low past returns, a time-weighted method may not find underperformance while an equal-weighted method may. We explain the negative cross-sectional abnormal returns as results of investor overoptimism and information asymmetry. Investors have insufficient information about issuers and overestimate issuers' future earnings. Along with new information released in earnings reports, they gradually downgrade their valuation, thus contributing to the negative cross-sectional returns. We find that the three-year buy-and-hold abnormal returns on issuers are significantly correlated with changes in net income during the same period, which is also supportive of the investor overoptimism hypothesis. This research contributes to the literature by providing new evidence from China, a major emerging economy with high growth. We suggest that earnings management could be stimulated by explicit earnings requirement and exacerbated by inve

Book Synopsis Issuer Operating Performance and IPO Price Formation by : Michael Willenborg
Download or read book Issuer Operating Performance and IPO Price Formation written by Michael Willenborg and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page 48 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We study the relation between issuer operating performance and IPO price formation, from the initial price range to the offer price to the closing price on the first trading day. For a post-bubble sample of 2001-2013 IPOs, we find that pre-IPO net income and, in particular, operating cash flow are strongly, positively associated with the revision from the midpoint of the initial price range to the offer price and that the 'partial adjustment phenomenon' concentrates among issuers with the strongest operating performance. As for why publicly observable information helps predict changes in valuation from when the initial price range is set to when the offer price is set, our findings suggest that strong-performing issuers, especially those offering small slices of ownership, have lower bargaining incentives and are susceptible to the underwriter(s) low-balling the price range. Overall, our results suggest an important role for accounting information in understanding the pricing of book-built IPOs and are consistent with the presence of agency problems between issuers and underwriters.
