This research investigates the impact of firm capital structure on profitability and firm value of the twenty eight mining companies listed in Indonesia Stock Exchange from the year 2009 to 2013. The capital structure is measured by the proportion of debt over total asset, ROA and ROE are used to measure the firm profitability, meanwhile stock price is applied to measure firm value. This study uses panel data regression analysis. After controlling with external factor such as GDP rate and inflation rate, and internal factor such as revenue growth and firm size (total asset), we find leverage has negative impact on ROA however they are not significant, thus it could be said capital structure has no effect on financial performance. The indicators that significantly affect financial performance come from the control variable, which is revenue growth. Our research also finds that the capital structure has a significant effect towards firm value. The firm size and GDP rate is more impactful towards firm value. This contradicts with the MM’s capital structure irrelevance proposition, but supports other theories such as pecking order theory and Trade-off theory

Transactions between countries require a stable exchange rate. When the exchange rate of the country experiences uncertainty, then this will influence the company’s financial performance and even affect the company’s market value. This study aims to look for the direct influence of the company’s financial performance as an independent variable and the firm value as a dependent variable within the investor perspective, also including the exchange rate factor as a moderating variable. Investors could probably learn about information on the ups-and-downs of the Indonesian rupiah against foreign currencies before their investment decisions, even though financial performance substantially influences the company’s market value. The sample in this study was 50 companies within four years of observation. Data processing was carried out by the Eviews statistical application. The results showed that the financial performance, which is proxied by the capital structure, affects firm value, but not profitability. The impact of exchange rate moderation also occurs in the relationship of capital structure and firm value, while the moderation effect on profitability and firm value is not proven. This study provides information that exchange rates influence investment interests upon investors’ analysis of the financial performance of the capital structure, but not profitability.

The aim of the study is to examine the impact of mergers and acquisition on financial performance in the Nigerian financial system. The study examined selected financial institutions in the banking sector. Specifically, some financial indicators such as asset profile, credit risk, capital structure, liquidity, size and cost control ratios, were extracted from the audited financial reports of the selected banks for the period 2000-2010 to compare the performance of the selected financial institutions in the ex-ante period and compare these performance with the ex post period of their mergers and acquisitions. Longitudinal and time series analyses were employed to observe the performance of the selected banks. Results from the analysis suggest that credit risks showed a better post merger performance, but were statistically insignificant and negatively related with the performance of the selected financial institution pre-merger. Asset profile was found to be significant and positively related with post-merger in relation to the performance of the selected financial institutions, but it was insignificant and negatively related to the financial performance of the selected firms pre-merger. Capital structure of the selected firms was found to be significant and positively related to the performance of the firms’ pre-merger, but insignificant and negatively related to the performance of the firms post-merger. Liquidity of the firms indicated a significant and positive relationship with the performance of the banks pre-merger. However, post merger result indicates that, there was no significant and positive relationship between the liquidity of the firms and financial performance post-merger. The size of the selected banks indicated a significant relationship with their performance in both the pre-merger and post-merger periods. The cost control variable indicated a statistically significant and negative relationship with the performance of the banks post-merger period, but showed no significant relationship with performance of the banks in the pre-merger period. Finally, the results indicate that mergers and acquisitions can have significant impact on the performance of the selected financial institutions in Nigeria.

The study aims to examine the firm-specific factors such as firm size, profitability and asset tangibility in the capital structure decisions (leverage) on a sample of twenty construction firms in Malaysia and Singapore from 2009 to 2018, with 200 observations. The sample firms are chosen based on convenience sampling technique and the availability of the data. Prior studies documented inconclusive findings on the determinants of capital structure and different industries tend to reveal different patterns of relationship. In addition, the empirical evidence on comparative analysis between construction firms in Malaysia and Singapore is lacking. Hence, the objective of this study is to extend the prior work by investigating the impact of the determinants on capital structure on the construction firms in Malaysia and Singapore. The study uses panel data analysis to test the effectivity of trade-off, pecking order and agency cost theories of capital structure. The empirical findings reveal positive and significant association between firm size and capital structure for Singapore firms. Meanwhile, profitability and asset tangibility correlate negatively with capital structure. As for Malaysian firms, the three determinants exhibit insignificant association with the capital structure. The study only examines 10 construction firms in Malaysia and 10 construction firms in Singapore, therefore, the small sample size becomes the limitation of the study. Nevertheless, the findings of this study may contribute to the body of knowledge on the importance of some firm-specific determinants such as profitability, tangible assets, and firm size in order to determine the optimal level of capital structure for firms in these countries.
