This article provides the assessment of the impact of the buyer company’s financial position on the M&A effectiveness on the base of the pharmaceutical industry. We have estimated this correlation using OLS method and data for the period from 2005 to 2017. As a result, the hypothesis about the dependence of the M&A efficiency from the buyer company’s financial state has been confirmed. The developed econometric model have showed that more than 80% of variation of the cumulative abnormal return, received as a result of the transaction, is explained by growth rates of revenues and net profit, assets, current liquidity, autonomy and financial leverage, return of sales and assets at the transaction time.

This article analyzes the effects of rumor and official rumor clarification on Chinese stock returns under different rumor conditions using an event study. The results are based on a sample of 832 rumor clarification announcements from China Listed Companies spanning the period of 2015 to 2017. The results show that the average cumulative abnormal return after the rumor event is significantly positive in the positive rumor sample and neutral sample, and significantly negative in the negative rumor sample. After the clarification announcements, we find the announcements effective for the positive and neutral rumor sample, but not in the case of the negative sample. However, by comparing different clarification times of each sample, we find that the earlier the clarification time is, the smaller the impact on the companies in positive and negative rumor examples.

It also estimates the pre and post-acquisition financial position of companies using financial parameters like Earning per share, Dividend per share, Return on Assets and Net Profit Margin. The period of study is for 6 years which is divided into 3 years for pre-acquisition and 3 years for post-acquisition performance. The data of Acquisitions has collected based on the financial parameters, Paired T-test has used for finding the statistical significance effect and to estimate their performance on merged companies. As the critical value is greater than the calculated value i.e. -2.919>-6.679, Rejected the Null hypothesis, i.e. there is a major difference between performance of pre and post merger as per earning per share. As the calculated value is greater than critical value i.e. 3.64 >2.919, accepted the Null hypothesis, i.e. there is no major difference in the Earning per Share. The terminal goal behind acquisition is to achieve growth in business. A well-analysed and the authentic plan will dramatically improve the chances of getting new implements to be in a competitive world. The strategic partnership of TCS-CMC and INFOSYS- PANAYA will provide few guidance for traditional players.

The aim of this paper is to estimate the impact of seaports investment on the economic growth. Seaports are seen by many governments as an important factor in the strengthening of the economies. During the last two decades, the Tunisian succeeding governments have been allocating a great amount of money to develop seaport infrastructures. However, the Tunisian economy witnessed fluctuations in the economic growth rates and decrease in the rate of employment during the same period of time. This study used an econometric model by employing the Cobb-Douglas production function. The sample was composed of Tunisia's economic sectors (manufacturing, services and agriculture) over the period 1983-2011. The results of the study show that the public investment in seaport infrastructures has apositive influence on Tunisian economic growth. The study also revealed that the biggest beneficiary from the seaport investment infrastructure is the service sector.

There is a large body of finance literature that has tested and validated dividend policy decisions mainly focused on the effect of the dividend announcement and the impact it has on the post announcement drift. But very few studies have tested the determinants of the cumulative abnormal return (CAR) surrounding the dividend announcement and to find the role of economic adversity in explaining the change in CAR. The present study investigates the role of change in dividend under both adverse and favorable market conditions. Using the data of S&P CNX 500 companies the study examines the role of dividend yield and EPS in explaining cumulative abnormal return over a period of seven years. Using VAR methodology the study examined the determinants of CAR surrounding the dividend announcement and the dynamic relationship between the variables. The results of the study showed that during adversity, dividend yield is the major factor explaining CAR. Variables like EPS, volume and price explain the CAR when there is no economic adversity. The study found that there is a significant relationship between abnormal return and its determinants.

The paper discusses the impact of tax optimization in the area of corporate income tax on the picture of the company's financial position. The purpose of the article is to answer the question whether the introduction of a preferential, reduced rate of corporate income tax for small taxpayers affected the dynamics of revenues from sales and financial results presented by enterprises. The study used the histogram analysis method and U Mann-Whitney's non-parametric test for independent trials. The article confirmed the thesis that the application of a preferential tax rate with a simultaneous rigid revenue criterion resulted in a reduction in the dynamics of sales revenues in the research sample entities. At the same time, it was proved that despite the decrease in sales revenue, the net profit of entities using the preferential rate was improved. The original contribution of the work is the application of the original research methodology.

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.
