Seasoned Equity Offerings: An Empirical InvestigationAshok N Korwaraffiliation not provided to SSRN Ronald W. MasulisUniversity of New South Wales - Australian School of Business; European Corporate Governance Institute (ECGI); Financial Research Network (FIRN) Journal of Financial Economics, Vol. 15, No. 1/2, pp. 91-118, 1986 Abstract: This study examines common stock price adjustments to announcements of underwritten common stock offerings. On average, a negative stock price change is observed, which is larger for industrials than for public utilities. Combination primary-secondary stock offerings and dual stock-bond offerings exhibit similar negative announcement effects. Combination offerings involving decreases in management shareholdings exhibit significantly larger negative announcement effects. Cross sectional analysis of stock announcement returns indicates a positive relationship to firms' leverage changes, and a negative relationship to prior stock returns and (for industrials) to decreases in management shareholdings.
