Abstract:It is demonstrated that analysts revise their forecasts of net operating income following the announcement of an equity-for-debt swap. Their revisions are positively correlated with the size of the stock-price reaction to the swap announcement. This evidence supports the hypothesis that announcements of equity-for-debt swaps convey information about the expected level of cash flows of the firm. Evidence is also provided that this information is about transitory changes in the expected cash-flows.
