• W3179767385 abstract "This thesis is composed of three essays on corporate disclosures in the context of empirical corporate finance. It explores managerial incentives for corporate disclosures and examines how manager disclosure decisions affect stock prices as well as how manager behavior and information asymmetry can be affected by a specific disclosure regulation. Chapter 2 investigates whether and how financial constraints on firms affect the risk of their stock prices crashing. We hypothesize that financial constraints increase future stock price crash risk via both bad-news-hoarding and default-risk channels. The results confirm our conjectures and are robust to using a dynamic panel generalized method of moments (GMM) estimator and two quasi-natural experiments to control for potential endogeneity. Cross-sectional analyses reveal that the positive relation between financial constraints and future crash risk is more prominent for firms with high abnormal accruals or with weak corporate governance and less pronounced for firms that commit tax avoidance or have a high credit rating. Chapter 3 and Chapter 4 focus on market consequences of corporate disclosures about derivative instruments and hedging activities. Derivatives are increasingly used by managers not only to hedge risks but also to pursue non-hedging activities for fulfilling opportunistic incentives. Using the mandatory adoption of a financial reporting standard (SFAS 161) on derivative disclosures, we examine whether and how derivative disclosures influence managerial opportunistic behavior. We employ insider trades and stock price crash risk to capture managerial opportunism. Applying a difference-in-differences design with hand-collected data on derivative designations, we find that, after the implementation of SFAS 161, derivative users that comply with SFAS 161 experience a significantly greater decrease in both insider trades and stock price crash risk, compared with a matched control sample of non-derivative-users. Our cross-sectional analyses reveal that SFAS 161 has greater impact on firms in the case of high information opacity, high financial risk, or high business risk. We find no evidence that, compared to the non-derivative-users, derivative users not compliant with SFAS 161 have a greater reduction in either insider trades or stock price crash risk in the post-SFAS 161 period, implying the importance of enhancing the enforcement of the regulation. Given that the transparency of firms’ derivative disclosure improves after SFAS 161, in Chapter 4, we examine whether the enhanced derivative disclosures reduce the information asymmetry between informed and uninformed investors. Tension exists as the derivative information may not be comprehensible to relatively uninformed investors. We find that derivative users compliant with SFAS 161 experience significantly greater reduction in stock illiquidity and probability of informed trade in the post-SFAS 161 period, and such impact is more pronounced for firms with greater investor attention." @default.
