This study examines the use of trade credits by firms that are in a state of financial distress. Trade credit is short-term financing that can be useful for firms in financial distress. The purpose of this study is to analyze the effect of financial distress on trade credit. The study sample was taken from non-financial firms listed on the Indonesian Stock Exchange (IDX) from 2007 to 2016. The research method is panel data regression by using the estimation model of the fixed-effect model and random effect. This study found that firms in financial distress tend to increase the use of trade credit. This is reflected from the results of research showing the positive and significant coefficients on the variable financial distress on the ratio of trade payable to the cost of goods sold and the ratio of trade payable to equity. Based on the results of the study it can be explained that firms that are in a state of financial distress have a larger current liability, its source from short-term financing.

Purpose This study aims to examine the impact of stock mispricing on corporate investment decisions by taking the sample of non-financial firms listed on the Pakistan Stock Exchange during the period of 2008-2014. Design/methodology/approach To measure the mispricing, this study decomposes the market-to-book ratio into mispricing and growth components and measures corporate investment by capital expenditures. Fixed and random effect panel regression models are used to estimate the results. Findings Results of the study show that firms issue overvalued equity to finance the capital expenditures. Consistent with other studies, the relationship between stock mispricing and investment is more prominent in the financially constrained firms. In addition, cash flow investment sensitivity is higher in financially unconstrained firms. Practical implications Nonetheless, the results give important implications to the Pakistan Stock Market on how the mispricing enhances the welfare by relaxing the financial constraints and allowing the managers to make investment in profitable projects that otherwise go non-funded. These findings have interesting implications for further research in the literature of finance and also help in economic policy-making.

The current study is aimed at checking the impact of the acquisition on the various short-run and long-run firm characteristics like abnormal returns, cost efficiency, and operational hedging of acquirer firms. Results have been analyzed for Pakistan Stock Exchange for a period of 2006 to 2019.  The acquisition may signal the future prospects of both acquirer and target firms.  The event study technique indicates the significant abnormal returns after 3 days of the acquisition announcement. However, pre-event statistics indicate abnormal returns for 5 out of 7 days before acquisition announcement. Researchers have calculated the cost efficiency scores for bidding firms three years prior to the acquisition and three years post-acquisition. Overall results suggest an improvement in the efficiency of the financial firms' overtime period. The non-financial sector is indicating opposite results where most of the firms are showing a declining trend in efficiency after the acquisition. Next, the impact of the acquisition on the operational volatility is checked. The empirical results have shown a large level decrease in the operational income volatility after the takeover deal. It shows that combined firms after acquisition brings the benefit of diversification thus reducing volatility and increasing operational hedging which may ultimately reduce financial hedging.

Abstract The main purpose of this study is to evaluate factors affecting passenger rail demand, with special attention to the effects of structural reform/regulation and competition. In order to do this, we use data obtained from 30 OECD countries for the 24 years from 1990 to 2013. As structural reform/regulation and competition variables, we take the OECD’s five kinds of regulatory indices: (i) overall, (ii) entry, (iii) public ownership, (iv) vertical integration, and (v) market structure; and for competition variables, we take (vi) rail passenger-freight ratio, (vii) rail share, and (viii) high-speed train ratio. As estimation methods, both the fixed effect model and the Hausman-Taylor estimation model are used. The major findings are as follows. First, competition as competitiveness (i.e. the share of rail, passenger over freight ratio) increases passenger demand. And the existence of high-speed trains increases passenger demand. Second, overall, entry regulation, and market structure have no significant effect on demand. Third, public ownership affects passenger demand positively. Last, vertical integration reduces passenger demand.

The different capital structure theories propose the possible asymmetric behavior of capital structure. Thus, this paper empirically investigates whether non-financial Jordanian firms follow symmetrical or asymmetrical adjustment model. Then, an interaction model with the size and profitability (firm characteristics) investigated the impact of low/high profit and small/large size on the adjustment of leverage towards the target leverage ratio. This paper covered the period of 14 years (2002-2015) for a total of 110 companies listed on Amman Stock Exchange (75 industrial and 35 services). Results indicate that although Jordanian firms seek a target leverage ratio, their adjustment towards that target is Asymmetrical and high profitable and large companies tend to adjust faster than low profitable and small size companies.
