This study attempts to investigate the change in the operating performance of firms as they go from private to public ownership. Using the data of all the non-financial firms, which floated initial public offerings (IPOs) from 2008 to 2015, this study finds that there is a significant decline in operating performance as measured by ROA, asset turnover, ROS, and OCFTA after the IPO and the decline continues for next two to three years with the highest deterioration of operating performance being observed in the immediate next year of IPO. Moreover, when the study uses age, debt ratio, sales, capital expenditure, and IPO event to explain the variation of the operating performance of IPO firms over time, it finds that IPO event negatively affects all measures of operating performance. Finally, the study finds that deterioration of the post-IPO operating performance is more pronounced for firms offering their securities with premium than firms offering securities without premium.

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to answer the following three questions about the new capital raised in initial public offerings (IPOs): why do some IPO companies raise a lot of new capital while some others do not? Where do the IPO companies use the new capital they raise in IPOs? How does the use of new capital affect the operating performance of IPO companies? Design/methodology/approach Matching firm approach, univariate and regression tests. Findings This paper finds that companies with higher research and development (R&D) spending, higher capital expenditure, lower working capital and more long-term debt tend to raise more capital in IPOs. These firms also spend more on R&D and capital expenditure. The results also suggest that the more the new capital firms raise in IPOs, the lower operating performance they have in subsequent years. However, firms spending more new capital on R&D and capital expenditure seem to perform better. Originality/value These results help us understand the behavior of IPO firms.

Our study compares the impact of market timing on the capital structure of reverse leveraged buyouts (RLBOs) and initial public offerings (IPOs). Our sample is made up of 210 RLBOs and 210 public companies listed between 1995 and 2015 and linked by size (turnover) and industry (based on the first two digits of the SIC code). Our results show that the impact of market timing measures on capital structure is different between RLBOs and public companies. In accordance with Baker and Wurgler (2002) and others, these measures have a negative and significant effect on the capital structure of the two types of companies. This significance is persistent ten years after the IPO for public companies and only three years after the IPO for RLBOs. RLBOs rebalance the market timing effect on their capital structures much more quickly and therefore move toward the target debt ratio more quickly than their counterparts. These results challenge the robustness and generality of Baker and Wurgler’s (2002) market timing theory. The capital structure of RLBOs seems to be better explained by the characteristic variables of companies suggested by the theory of trade-off.

This article explores long-term equity and operating performance of Indian firms issuing initial public offerings (IPOs) backed by venture capital/private equity (VC/PE) funding. Using data for 173 IPOs backed by VC/PE funding during 2000–2016, the article shows that equity market performance of VC/PE-backed IPOs is unimpressive post issue, compared to their peers. This is not only due to market perception but also associated with a declining operating performance. However, information asymmetry, mispricing and ‘timing the market’ by issuing firms do not seem to be the reasons for such long-term underperformance. We argue that it may be a case of too much money chasing too few winners for Indian IPOs and individual rent-seeking activities by managers. The observation raises the question of effectiveness of the monitoring role of venture capitalists or PE funders post the IPO in an Indian context. This is substantiated by our additional finding that sustained monitoring and hand-holding by venture capitalists and PE funders post the IPO cause an improvement in performance. The findings of this study can have significant implications for all stakeholders, particularly common investors in the Indian equity market.

This paper examines the dynamics of capital structure for firms engaging in initial public offerings (IPOs) on the Johannesburg Stock Exchange (JSE). Censored Tobit regressions are used to model capital structure targeting behaviour. The findings suggest evidence of targeting behaviour consistent with the static trade off theory of capital structure. On average, IPO firms adjust towards the capital structure target at a faster pace than seasoned firms; IPO firms take, on average, 0.77 years to cover half the financing gap, whereas seasoned firms take an average of 2.65 years. In the first year following the IPO, hot market IPOs significantly reduce their total debt, while cold market IPOs increase the total debt significantly. In terms of the total debt ratio, hot market IPOs adjust at a marginally faster pace than cold market IPOs. However, the opposite is true when the long term debt ratio is considered. In addition, hot market IPOs adjust faster than cold market IPOs in the first year following the IPO. The average first year adjustment speed of hot market IPO firms is 45.61 percent higher than the speed of adjustment for the average cold market IPO firm.
