| Tiivistelmä: | Empirical evidence on the signaling hypothesis of dividends is weak and mixed. Recent studies have found that dividend changes reflect mostly current and past earnings but not future earnings. A model in which not all dividend changes contain new information about future earnings is provided in this paper. Some dividend decisions are backward looking (noninformation or nonsignaling events). The model helps identify two types of dividend changes and predicts that the market will respond strongly only to forward-looking dividend changes. |
