Book The Information Content of Earnings Following Restatements

Download or read book The Information Content of Earnings Following Restatements written by Wendy M. Wilson and published by . This book was released on 2006 with total page 53 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper examines the information content of earnings following restatements of prior period earnings. Results indicate that the information content of earnings announcements declines in periods following a restatement, but that the loss of information content is temporary. In particular, the earnings response coefficients for earnings announcements surrounding a restatement exhibit a U-shaped pattern in which they return to pre-restatement levels over an average of four quarters, suggesting that the market's concern regarding subsequently reported earnings is somewhat transitory. The extent to which the earnings of restatement firms suffer a loss of information content varies across several dimensions. First, the loss of information content is greater for firms that restate earnings to correct revenue recognition errors than it is for other types of restatements. Second, the information content of earnings is significantly lower for firms that do not make changes to their financial reporting governance structure following a restatement relative to firms that initiate governance changes. Overall, the evidence presented in this paper is consistent with a short-term decline in investor confidence regarding financial reporting following restatements, but that recovery typically takes place within four quarters.

Book An Empirical Analysis of the Decline in the Information Content of Earnings Following Restatements

Download or read book An Empirical Analysis of the Decline in the Information Content of Earnings Following Restatements written by Wendy M. Wilson and published by . This book was released on 2007 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Regulatory officials and market analysts have speculated that the loss of credibility in subsequently reported financial information is a long-lasting consequence of earnings restatements. I measure the information content of earnings using a standard earnings-returns framework over several years surrounding restatements to examine characteristics of the decline in the information content of earnings. Results indicate that although the information content of earnings declines following restatements, the loss is temporary. In particular, the earnings response coefficients for earnings announcements surrounding restatements exhibit a U-shaped pattern in which they are no longer significantly lower in the post-restatement period over an average of four quarters. The extent to which the earnings of restatement firms suffer a loss of information content varies across several dimensions. First, the duration of the loss is greater for firms that restate earnings to correct revenue recognition errors and for restatements that result in a large decline in the stock price at the announcement date. Second, there is not a loss in the information content of earnings for firms that make changes to their financial reporting governance structures following restatements. Overall, the evidence in this paper is consistent with a short-term decline in investor confidence regarding financial reporting following restatements, but shows that suspicion regarding the information loss of post-restatement earnings in the long-term is unwarranted.

Book Is the Decline in the Information Content of Earnings Following Restatements Short Lived

Download or read book Is the Decline in the Information Content of Earnings Following Restatements Short Lived written by Xia Chen and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 52 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Prior research finds that the decline in the information content of earnings after restatement announcements is short-lived and the earnings response coefficient (ERC) bounces back after three quarters. We re-examine this issue using a more recent and comprehensive sample of restatements. We find that material restatement firms experience a significant decrease in the ERC over a prolonged period - close to three years after restatement announcements. In contrast, other restatement firms experience a decline in the ERC for only one quarter. We further find that among material restatement firms, those that are subject to more credibility concerns and those that do not take prompt actions to improve reporting credibility experience a longer drop in the ERC. Lastly, reconciling with prior research, we find that using a more powerful proxy for material restatements and imposing less restrictive sampling requirements help increase the power of the tests to detect the long-run drop in the ERC.

Book The Effect of 10k Restatements on Firm Value  Information Asymmetries  and Investors  Reliance on Earnings

Download or read book The Effect of 10k Restatements on Firm Value Information Asymmetries and Investors Reliance on Earnings written by Kirsten L. Anderson and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 30 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Restating 10-Ks has become an increasingly common phenomenon in financial reporting. Restatements clearly signal that the firm's prior financial statements were not credible and were of relatively lower quot;qualityquot;. In this study, we examine the effect of restatements on investors' and dealers' perceptions of the firm. First, we examine the market returns and the bid-ask spread effects at the announcement of the accounting problem that leads to restatement. We find negative market returns for accounting problem announcements, and we find that the negative reaction is most pronounced for firms with revenue recognition issues. We also find an increase in spreads surrounding the announcement of revenue recognition problems. Second we examine returns and spreads from the announcement of the restatement to the filing of the restated financial statements. We find a significant negative market reaction and a larger negative reaction for firms with revenue recognition problems. We find no change in spreads from before the announcement of the accounting problem to after the restatement is filed. Finally, we examine the effect of the restatement on earnings response coefficients, and find that the market reacts less to earnings after a restatement than to earnings prior to a restatement. In general, these results indicate that investors and dealers react negatively to restatements and are more concerned with revenue recognition problems than with other financial reporting errors.

Book Corruption and Fraud in Financial Markets

Download or read book Corruption and Fraud in Financial Markets written by Carol Alexander and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2022-12-13 with total page 624 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Identifying malpractice and misconduct should be top priority for financial risk managers today Corruption and Fraud in Financial Markets identifies potential issues surrounding all types of fraud, misconduct, price/volume manipulation and other forms of malpractice. Chapters cover detection, prevention and regulation of corruption and fraud within different financial markets. Written by experts at the forefront of finance and risk management, this book details the many practices that bring potentially devastating consequences, including insider trading, bribery, false disclosure, frontrunning, options backdating, and improper execution or broker-agency relationships. Informed but corrupt traders manipulate prices in dark pools run by investment banks, using anonymous deals to move prices in their own favour, extracting value from ordinary investors time and time again. Strategies such as wash, ladder and spoofing trades are rife, even on regulated exchanges – and in unregulated cryptocurrency exchanges one can even see these manipulative quotes happening real-time in the limit order book. More generally, financial market misconduct and fraud affects about 15 percent of publicly listed companies each year and the resulting fines can devastate an organisation's budget and initiate a tailspin from which it may never recover. This book gives you a deeper understanding of all these issues to help prevent you and your company from falling victim to unethical practices. Learn about the different types of corruption and fraud and where they may be hiding in your organisation Identify improper relationships and conflicts of interest before they become a problem Understand the regulations surrounding market misconduct, and how they affect your firm Prevent budget-breaking fines and other potentially catastrophic consequences Since the LIBOR scandal, many major banks have been fined billions of dollars for manipulation of prices, exchange rates and interest rates. Headline cases aside, misconduct and fraud is uncomfortably prevalent in a large number of financial firms; it can exist in a wide variety of forms, with practices in multiple departments, making self-governance complex. Corruption and Fraud in Financial Markets is a comprehensive guide to identifying and stopping potential problems before they reach the level of finable misconduct.

Book Business and the Ethical Implications of Technology

Download or read book Business and the Ethical Implications of Technology written by Kirsten Martin and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2022-12-11 with total page 301 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book focuses on how firms should engage ethical choices in developing and deploying digital technologies. Digital technologies are devices that rely on rapidly accelerating digital sensing, storage, and transmission capabilities to intervene in human processes. While the ethics of technology is analyzed across disciplines from science and technology studies (STS), engineering, computer science, critical management studies, and law, less attention is paid to the role that firms and managers play in the design, development, and dissemination of technology across communities and within their firm. This book covers the topic from three angles. First, it illuminates diverse facets of the intersection of technology and business ethics. Second, it uses themes to explore what business ethics offers to the study of technology and, third, what technology studies offers to the field of business ethics. Each field brings expertise that, together, improves our understanding of the ethical implications of technology. Chapter “A Micro-ethnographic Study of Big Data-Based Innovation in the Financial Services Sector: Governance, Ethics and Organisational Practices", chapter ”The Challenges of Algorithm-Based HR Decision-Making for Personal Integrity" and chapter “Female CEOs and Core Earnings Quality: New Evidence on the Ethics Versus Risk-Aversion Puzzle" are available open access under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International license via link.springer.com.

Book The Effect of Restatement Detection Speed on Reporting Credibility

Download or read book The Effect of Restatement Detection Speed on Reporting Credibility written by Mark Hirschey and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 47 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A primary goal of the regulatory reforms enacted around the implementation of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act (SOX) was to improve the credibility of financial reporting. While earnings restatements resulting from accounting issues damaged investor trust prior to the implementation of SOX, we hypothesize that quicker detection of restatements in the post-SOX era should dampen investors' skepticism that accounting problems will have long-lasting effects on reporting credibility. This study documents that irregularity-related restatements were detected more quickly after SOX, which is consistent with greater attention paid to reporting quality and higher levels of audit scrutiny. The results also show that investors have modest credibility concerns regarding firms that announced irregularity-related restatements in the post-SOX era, as the decline in the information content of earnings is short-lived and contagion effects for industry-peer firms are limited. However, this study shows that changes in reporting credibility are influenced by how quickly restatements are discovered and disclosed, as the adverse credibility effects are confined to accounting irregularities that have lengthy detection periods. The evidence from this study highlights the importance of monitoring mechanisms for discovering and resolving accounting irregularities quickly, as the market does not seem to have significant suspicions about ongoing reporting credibility for such firms.
