摘要:
We document a significant influence of industry
peers’ recent equity issuance, on the SEO activity of financially constrained
firms. This effect is incremental to prior determinants of SEO decisions. We
explore the role of financial intermediaries in the transmission of these peer
effects and find that analyst coverage and institutional ownership increase,
and analyst forecast dispersion and bid-ask spreads decrease following peer
firm SEOs. We find that a constrained firm’s hazard ratio of an SEO increases
in the number of recent peer firm SEOs, and that this relation is particularly
strong when the peer SEOs are marketed by the firm’s own underwriter. When the
constrained firm announces an SEO we find the announcement returns increase and
the gross spreads decrease when their underwriter has recently done related
deals. Our results suggest that financial intermediaries are important
information conduits from earlier issuers to their industry peers.
