Purpose: The core purpose of this paper empirically study of the initial public offerings (IPOs) of companies accepted in oil and chemical industries. The paper attempts to answer the question of is there any abnormal return from IPOs in listed companies in Tehran Stock Exchange (TSE).Design/methodology/approach: This research is an applied research, and its design is empirical, which is done by the method of post-event (past information). For the purpose of the study the t-statistic, regression and variance analyses are applied to examine the hypotheses. We use in the analyses a sample of 29 newly accepted Iranian oil and chemical companies listed on TSE for the period of 2001 to 2012. This paper has studied abnormal return and three abnormal phenomena have been considered in capital market. These phenomena consist: (1) underpricing or overpricing of the firm's stock, (2) lower or higher stock return of the firms and (3) Particular period in market for stock transactions volume.Findings: The results support the hypothesis that there is a positive abnormal return to investing in the newly accepted oil and chemical firms for stockholders. It also shown the firm size is the only factor that can affect the stock abnormal return. With considering significance level, investors have to give attention sequentially to other variables such as stock ownership centralization, going public time and stock offering volume.

Rights issue or the issuance of pre-emptive rights are the rights granted by an issuer company made to its existing shareholders to buy new shares issued within a predetermined period of time. This study aims to empirically explain the differences in abnormal returns before and after the announcement of the rights issue and to determine the form of capital market efficiency in Indonesia. Data are collected from 27 listed companies in the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) that conducted a rights issue in 2014-2018. The data analysis technique used is the Kolmogorov-Smirnov Normality Test and the Parametric Statistical Test with a paired sample t-test. Based on the results of hypothesis testing not found differences in abnormal returns both before and after the announcement date indicating the market does not react to the right issue event. The results of statistical tests show a downward trend of abnormal return which is proxied in the Cumulative Abnormal Return (CAR), implying a market tends to react negatively to the announcement of the rights issue. Rights issue information causes a new equilibrium price adjustment in the market, thus making the form of efficiency of the Indonesian capital market a semi-strong form.

This research is an empirical study to analyze international event and its impacts on Indonesian capital market. The international event in this study is expansionary monetary policy issued by the Federal Reserve in the form of quantitative easing policies that were announced in three stages, on 26 November 2008, 4 November 2010, and 14 September 2012 (Indonesia Stock Exchange trading day). The study analyzed the abnormal return and trading volume activity occured at each event period. Observation period in this study used 120-day estimation period and 11-day event period at each stage of the quatitative easing announcement. The event study was done in Indonesian capital market represented by 127 shares that are catagorized as LQ45 index and actively traded in each event period. The assumption that Indonesian capital market is co-integrated with international capital market can make the announcement of quantitative easing policy as positive information for investors in Indonesia. The analysis results show that a significant positive abnormal return around the event date and a significant increase in the intensity trading activities after the quantitative easing announcement, occured. The market test results show that Indonesian capital market has efficient information in a semi-strong form, so that the investors cannot use the published information to get profits (positive abnormal return) in a long run (around the date of the event only).   Abstrak Penelitian ini merupakan studi empiris untuk menganalisis peristiwa internasional dan dampaknya terhadap pasar modal Indonesia. Peristiwa internasional yang diteliti adalah pengumuman kebijakan moneter ekspansif yang dikeluarkan oleh Bank Sentral Amerika Serikat, yaitu quantitative easing yang dilakukan dalam tiga tahapan pengumuman pada tanggal 26 November 2008, 4 November 2010 dan 14 September 2012 (hari perdagangan bursa di Indonesia). Penelitian dilakukan dengan menganalisis abnormal return dan trading volume activity yang terjadi disetiap periode peristiwa. Penelitian ini menggunakan periode pengamatan yang terdiri dari 120 hari periode estimasi dan 11 hari periode peristiwa disetiap tahapan pengumuman quantitative easing. Analisis studi peristiwa dilakukan pada pasar modal Indonesia yang diwakili oleh 127 saham yang pernah masuk dalam kategori indeks LQ45 dan secara aktif diperdagangkan disetiap periode peristiwa. Asumsi bahwa pasar modal Indonesia terkointegrasi dengan pasar modal internasional menyebabkan pengumuman kebijakan quantitative easing dapat menjadi informasi yang positif bagi pemodal di Indonesia. Hasil analisis menunjukkan bahwa terjadi abnormal return positif yang signifikan di sekitar tanggal peristiwa dan peningkatan intensitas perdagangan yang signifikan setelah peristiwa pengumuman kebijakan quantitative easing. Hasil pengujian efisiensi pasar menunjukkan bahwa pasar modal Indonesia efisien secara informasi dalam bentuk setengah kuat sehingga pemodal tidak dapat menggunakan informasi yang dipublikasikan untuk mendapatkan keuntungan (abnormal return positif) dalam jangka waktu yang lama (hanya di sekitar tanggal peristiwa).

Analyzing 474 cases of firms going public in the German capital between 1892 and 1913, we show that innovative firms could rely on the Berlin stock market as a source of financing. Our data also reveal that initial public offerings (IPO) of innovative firms were characterized by particularly low underpricing, comparatively high first trading prices, and no long-run underperformance. We interpret these empirical results as evidence for the surprising fact that in the period of the Second Industrial Revolution the Berlin stock exchange was already a well-functioning market for new technology.

This study examines if the prospectus disclosure of the motives for an initial public offering (IPO) explains the long-run performance of equity issuers using hand-collected data for 245 IPOs from the Stock Exchange of Thailand (SET), and also the Market for Alternative Investments (MAI), in the 12-year period between 2001 and 2012. The stock returns of the IPOs were investigated using cumulative abnormal return (CAR) and buy-and-hold abnormal return (BHAR). The authors find a significant impact for the level of use-of-proceeds disclosure on IPO underpricing, and further that the ex-ante uncertainty and signalling hypotheses explain the IPO underpricing phenomenon in the Thai IPO market. Furthermore, Thai firms citing investment needs show significant positive abnormal returns after the offering, but issuers that state general corporate purposes and debt payments motives underperform. The authors provide evidence that the offering size and bull-market conditions significantly affect the IPO pricing and the strategic disclosure of information in the prospectus. Our results are robust, having been subjected to a wide range of sensitivity checks. Keywords: Prospectus disclosure, IPO performance, Thailand. JEL Classification: G14, G30, G32

This paper estimates the aftermarket performance of initial public offerings (IPOs) listed on the Karachi Stock Exchange. The evidence confirms that IPOs generate statistically significant abnormal returns in the short run, which indicates that underwriters initially underprice IPOs when analyzed using a short time horizon. However, when using longer time horizons to estimate abnormal performance, the results indicate that IPOs underperform in the long-run. There is an apparent dislocation between the initial valuation set by underwriters and the premium paid by the market for these new issues. The market sentiment that causes this temporary disequilibrium eventually fades and the market reprices the newly issued shares. We conduct an extreme bounds analysis to test the sensitivity and robustness of 16 explanatory variables in determining the long-term performance of unseasoned newly issued shares. The results indicate that the long-term investment ratio, industry affiliation, market-adjusted abnormal returns, financial leverage, return on assets, IPO activity period, the aftermarket risk level of unseasoned issues, and the post-issue promoter’s holdings variables significantly affect IPOs’ aftermarket performance. Theoretically, the overreaction hypothesis, ex-ante uncertainty hypothesis and window-of-opportunity hypothesis best explain IPOs’ aftermarket performance in this study.

Abstract This paper explores the motives for Initial Public Offerings (IPOs); that is, whether market mispricing or the behavioral inclinations of investors and analysts impact corporate decisions about rising equity, with a particular focus on market and corporate timing practices of managers going public. To do so, an anonymous survey was conducted of 166 managers of firms that recently went public at the Warsaw Stock Exchange in Poland (being the second most active IPO market in Europe, after London). The resulting data reveals that managers attempt to time bullish markets and good historical corporate financial results.
