Shareholder Wealth Creation in Response to Announcements of Acquisitions of Unlisted Firms: Evidence from Spain
2011
We investigate shareholder value creation of Spanish listed firms in response to announcements of acquisitions of unlisted companies and compare this experience to the purchase of listed firms over the period 1991–2006. Similar to foreign markets, acquirers of listed targets earn insignificant average abnormal returns, whereas acquirers of unlisted targets gain significant positive average abnormal returns. When we relate these results to company and transaction characteristics our findings diverge from those reported in the literature for other foreign markets, as our evidence suggests that the listing status effect is mainly associated with the fact that unlisted firms tend to be smaller …
Problemas en la estimación y en el contraste de los rendimientos anormales a largo plazo: Estado de la cuestión

COMPORTAMIENTO A LARGO PLAZO DE LAS OFERTAS PÚBLICAS DE VENTA SUBSIGUIENTES EN EL MERCADO ESPAÑOL
2002
This research investigates the long¿run after¿performance of firms conducting seasoned equity offering in the Spanish market during the period 1993¿1999.

We obtain evidence that issuers experience negative abnormal returns economically and statistically significant during the year after the event. These results are robust to different metrics, estimations and tests used. Finally, underperformance is more severe in small, growth firms. En este trabajo estudiamos si las empresas cotizadas que realizan un oferta pública de v…
