Abstract:This article documents the long-horizon mean reverting character of annual earnings and tests the implications of such mean reversion for security valuation. Both theory-based and nonparametric measures of earnings persistence decrease as the estimation order increases, revealing 40% less long-horizon persistence than expected under the commonly used random walk model. The return responses to the earnings shocks are more closely related across firms to the higher-order measures of persistence that reflect significant long-horizon mean reversion.
