Abstract: | The paper examines market reactions on spin-off and sell-off announcements. The authors find that the market reacts positively on spin-offs compared to sell-offs when the spin-off is executed by high Q firms. They could find no evidence for the argument that the market reacts negatively when the firms executing spin-offs and sell-offs are inflicted by agency costs of free cash-flow. The results support some fundamentals of property rights theory. |
