| Abstract: | The authors analyze the post-bankruptcy cash flows for a sample of firms that emerged from Chapter 11 reorganization between 1983 and 1993. The authors evaluate the rate of return available to investors who owned all of the debt and equity claims on the firm as it emerged from bankruptcy. On average, this return matches the performance of benchmark portfolios during the five years following emergence. Although post-bankruptcy operating margins are poor, the market appears to assess accurately the firm's prospects at the time it emerges from bankruptcy. |
