The study considered the co-integral consequences of Triple Bottom Line financial reports of listed hydrocarbon companies on their financial outlooks. It was conducted to evaluate the crystalized correlation of responsible hydrocarbon companies on their financial fortunes. In simple terms, the research looked for answers to the question of whether it is financially worthwhile for corporate citizens to be responsible. The study employed the expos facto design where secondary data were obtained from the annual reports of the listed hydrocarbon companies on the floor of the Nigerian Stock Exchange. The least-square multiple linear regression analysis methods were employed to establish the degree of financial crystallization consequential to the adoption of the triple bottom reporting format. Social, economic, and environmental reports of the studied listed hydrocarbon companies were co-integrated with the returns on assets of the companies, to establish the level of crystallization of the explanatory variables with the response variable. The crystallized results revealed that economic disclosure and environmental disclosure have limited significant crystallization characteristics on the returns on assets, while social disclosure showed significantly positive crystallization characteristics with returns on assets of the studied companies. Arising from these findings, therefore, the study recommended that a mandatory reporting framework be put in place for hydrocarbon companies listed on the floor of the Nigerian Stock Exchange to encourage sustainability reporting.

This article analyzes the correlation between compliance to the Austrian Code of Corporate Governance and financial success of Austrian stock listed companies. It uses a sample of 52 Austrian companies that are listed on the Vienna Stock Exchange and corporate data collected from company publications such as annual reports, financial reports, corporate governance reports and company websites. Three accounting measures – return on assets, return on equity and net profit margin – were chosen in order to proxy the financial performance of a company. The period under review ranges from 2008 to 2016, whereas particular attention is given to the years 2010 to 2016. A corporate governance compliance score has been established on the comply or explain basis and recommendation rules of the Austrian Code of Corporate Governance in order to measure a company’s ability of implementing ‘good’ corporate governance practices. In line with research for other countries, this study finds no statistical evidence that a correlation exists between high compliance to the Austrian Code of Corporate Governance and financial success of companies listed on the Austrian Stock Exchange. The paper highlights the uniqueness of the Austrian Corporate Governance system when compared to other systems and gives arguments why companies comply with corporate governance recommendations.
