| Tiivistelmä: | During the one month period prior to repurchasing shares, the frequency and magnitude (henceforth as: f-and-m.) of bad news announcements (as: anns.) is increased by managers. Also, the f-and-m. of good news anns. during the 1-month period following the repurchases (here as: reps.) is increased. These results are consistent with Barclay and Smith's assumption that share reps., unlike dividends, create incentives for managers to manipulate information flows ("Corporate payout policy: Cash dividends versus open-market repurchases" in Journal of Financial Economics, 1988, 22, p. 61-82). In addition, it is shown that managers provide downward-biased earnings forecasts before reps. and that managers' propensity to change information flows prior to share reps. increases with their ownership interest in the firm. |
