Frequent Issuers' Influence on Long-Run Post-Issuance ReturnsMatthew T. BillettIndiana University - Kelley School of Business Mark J. FlanneryUniversity of Florida - Department of Finance, Insurance and Real Estate Tippie College of Business Univ. of IowaTippie College of Business, Univ. of Iowa April 29, 2010 Journal of Financial Economics (JFE), Forthcoming Abstract: Prior studies conclude that firms’ equity underperforms following many individual sorts of external financing. These conclusions naturally raise significant questions about market efficiency and/or about the techniques used to measure long run “abnormal returns.” Rather than concentrating on a single security type or issuance, we examine long-run performance following any and all sorts of security issuances. Initial financing events do not associate with underperformance; however subsequent financings do. Our results suggest that negative post-issuance returns have nothing to do with the specific type of security issued, and everything to do with the number of types of securities issued.
