Abstract: | This paper provides evidence on the bonding, segmentation, and market-timing theories of internationalization (henceforth as: int-zation) by documenting the evolution of Tobin's q (here as: T's q) before, during, and after firms int-zation. It is found that T's q does not rise after int-zation, even relative to domestic firms. Instead, T's q rises significantly before and during the int-zation year, falling then sharply in the following year, quickly giving away the previous years' increases. In decomposing these dynamics, market capitalization is found to rise before int-zation and to remain high, whereas corporate assets increase during int-zation. |
