  • The paper examines the influence of profitability on distance to default (DD) in Vietnam securities market. The investigated sample consists of 211 companies listed on HOSE during 18 years from 2010 to 2017. We apply KMV model to calculate distance to default and use both macroeconomics factors and firm specific factors as independent variables. Using General Least Squared (GLS) method, we find evidence to confirm the positive relationship between profitability and distance to default. This result showed that, although profitability did not directly reflect the cash flow generated, a good profitable enterprise would be an important factor to help facilitate and generate cash flow and at the same time debt was guaranteed when it was due. Besides, the test results revealed that the financial structure and sales on assets have the inverse effect on the distance to default at the significance level of 5%. The results also revealed that a group of macro factors had an influence on the distance to default of businesses, including spread, GDP and trade balance (via exchange rates). Gross domestic income had certain impacts on the distance to default of businesses. This was also a basic indicator measuring the national economic cycle.

  • The general role of commercial banks is to provide financial services to the general public and business, ensuring economic and social stability and sustainable growth of the economy. Commercial banks play an important role in mobilizing and channelizing funds for investment activities. This study analyzes the impact of the key financial variables on the net profit of the selected commercial banks in Oman. The study employs times series panel data - cross-sectional analysis of the key financials of five leading commercial banks for a period of 13 years from 2007 to 2019. The results reveal that the correlation matrix of the selected variables has a positive relationship with net profit, assets, deposits, loans, and interest income. However, the findings also shows a negative relationship between net profit and net loans to total deposits ratio. The study found net loans is the main independent variable that influences the profitability of the banks since the key source of revenue comes from the lending operations. The assets, total capital adequacy ratio have a mixed effect on the profitability of commercial banks. The total deposits and capital adequacy ratio have a negative effect on profitability mainly because excessive liquidity will increase the cost of capital and reduce the return on investment. Focusing on lending operations with a sound credit portfolio will improve profitability.

  • Purpose - The purpose of the study is to examine the relationships among the following retail operations variables: retail store operations (i.e., store management, sales personnel, promotion of merchandise), success of assortment planning, firm performance (i.e., market share, overall competitive position, profitability, product quality, consumer satisfaction), and retail buyer's demographics and firm's characteristics. Research design, data, and methodology - After conducting a pilot test, the survey was conducted in Seoul, South Korea. With using the listwise deletion method, 378 usable data sets were analyzed. For data analysis, descriptive statistics, factor analysis, and Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) methods were employed. Results - As evidenced from the path diagram, the relationship between retail store operations and the success of assortment planning is strong and significant. Retail store operations affect firm performance, though at a weaker significance than it affects the success of assortment planning. The relationship between the success of assortment planning and firm performance, is the strongest relationship observed by this research. Conclusions - The findings of this empirical study contribute to the retail/fashion buying/management field by confirming (a) the importance of assortment planning for retail firm performance and (b) the role of store operations for successful assortment planning and firm performance for fashion retailers.

  • The outbreak of Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) has caused serious impacts not only on human health but also on the economies around the world. Enterprises play an important role in the development of every country but it is also one of the most affected sectors during the pandemic. Drawing on panel data of 131 enterprises listed on the Vietnamese stock exchange from 2016Q1 to 2021Q3, this study aims to investigate the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on firm performance. Enterprises are classified into seven industries including Agriculture, Material, Industry, Real estate and Construction, Energy, Consumer, and Service. The paper also analyzes the variation of the effects among companies, focusing on differences in revenue and capital structure. The results show that the COVID-19 pandemic negatively affects business performance. In addition, the empirical findings indicate that revenue and debt decreasing can cause deterioration of firm performance during the pandemic period. The decrease in revenue has a direct impact on firm profitability. The reduction of debt levels affects the corporate leverage leading to adverse effects on firm performance. The negative effect is more pronounced for companies in some specific sectors including industry, real estate, construction, consumption, and services.

  • 본 논문에서는 경영학 재무 분야에서 국내외적으로 지속적인 관심의 대상이지만, 학문적 의견 일치를 보이지 못하고 있는 주제가 연구되었다. 즉, 기업의 수익성에 대한 재무적 결정요인과 상호 차별성이 가설검정을 통하여 상호 비교되었다. 연구 분석 방법과 관련하여 본 연구에서는 국내 재벌 계열사들을 대상으로 표본기간은 국제금융위기 이후의 기간으로 설정되었으며 시장가치와 장부가치 기준의 두 분류의 수익성 지표들이 각각 분석되었다. 첫 번째 가설검정 결과 관련, 총 7개의 설명변수들 중, 기업 규모와 부채비율을 제외한 나머지 변수들이 재벌기업들의 수익성 결정에 유의성 있는 영향을 줄 수 있는 재무적 요인들이었으며, 동 결과는 비교그룹인 비재벌 소속 기업들에 대한 검정 결과와도 일반적으로 유사하였다. 또한, 다항로지스틱 모형을 활용한 두 번째 가설 검정에서는, 표본기업인 재벌기업들이 수익성 수준을 기준으로 3단계로 분류되었다. 이를 기준으로 부채비율, 부도위험성 그리고 잠재성장성을 나타내는 변수들이 재벌기업들 간의 차별성을 나타내는 변수들로서 판명되었다. 본 연구의 결과들은 국제금융위기라는 재무적 시점을 경험한 국내 재벌기업들의 수익성 결정요인들을 판명하는 측면에 새로운 방향을 제시할 수 있다고 판단하며, 또한 선순환적 관점에서 정부와 기업을 포함한 이해관계자들의 향후 이익 제고에도 기여할 수 있다고 판단된다.

  • The construction and real estate industries contribute significantly to each country's economic development. Strong construction and real estate firms will contribute more to the country's GDP by contributing to the industry's development. The purpose of this study is to examine the factors that influence the performance of the construction and real estate sectors in Vietnam. A survey of 200 construction and real estate firms in different areas was conducted from 2020 until the end of 2021. Following the removal of errors, the author got 196 replies, 6 of which were invalid, leaving 190 votes for quantitative analysis. The research findings show that elements such as (1) senior executives' commitment to the organization, and (2) the ability to use technology have a positive and significant impact on firm performance when using advanced econometric analysis. Furthermore, in the case of Hanoi, Vietnam, business relationships have a positive impact on firm performance. Training and development, as well as the working environment and incentives, have little effect on the profitability of construction and real estate firms. Finally, the research also has some recommendations and limitations for the construction and real estate sector.

  • Purpose: This study's objective is to examine the impact of firm-specific and macroeconomic factors on the business performance of non-cyclical and cyclical sectors in Indonesian listed firms. The evaluation of business performance holds paramount importance for the achievement and long-term viability of a company. Research Design Data and Methodology: The data for 61 non-cyclicals sector companies and 57 cyclicals sector companies was gathered over a 4-year period from 2018-2021. The model integrates firm size, leverage, and sales growth as firm-specific factors, with real GDP growth and inflation rate as macroeconomic variables. ROA and ROE are indicators of a firm's business performance. The regression models are estimated using the distribution of a dynamic approach with Arellano-Bond Panel Generalized Method of Moments (GMM) estimation. Results: The results of the pooled sample indicate that the historical ROA and ROE have a positive relationship with the business performance of all sectors, including both non-cyclical and cyclical industries. The ROE of non-cyclical enterprises is primarily influenced by firm-specific characteristics and macroeconomic influences. Conclusion: To ensure the successful implementation of the distribution of a dynamic approach towards enhancing corporate business performance, organizations need to take into account a combination of firm-specific factors and macroeconomic factors.

  • 본 연구는 유가증권시장의 제조업을 대상으로 재무정보의 효율성이 기업가치에 미치는 영향에 대해 정보가 반영되는 시기를 중심으로 검증하고자 하였다. 이를 위해 재무제표 공시를 기준으로 분석기간을 당해(t)년도, 재무제표 공시 전 90일, 차기년도(t+1)로 구분하였다. 실증분석에 사용된 재무변수는 수익성, 성장성, 안정성, 활동성 및 시장가치 비율이며 재무정보가 분석기간 동안의 주식수익률에 미치는 영향을 단계적 회귀분석(stepwise regression)을 이용해 검증하였다. 실증분석 결과, 성장성과 수익성에 관한 정보는 당기의 주식수익률에 반영되는데 비해 안정성과 활동성에 관한 정보는 차기의 주식수익률에 정보를 반영하고 있는 것으로 나타났다. 총자산증가율은 당기 및 차기의 주식수익률에 부(-)의 유의적인 영향을 주는 것으로 나타났으며, 이는 재무정보가 산출된 동기간에 정보가 반영될 뿐만 아니라 차기에도 지속적으로 정보를 반영하는 것으로 판단된다. 본 연구는 재무정보의 성격에 따라 기업가치에 반영되는 시기가 달라지는 것을 발견하였다.

  • 이 연구는 코스닥증권시장 벤처기업과 유가증권시장 일반기업의 특허활동, 즉 특허활동량, 발명기술의 고급정도, 종업원1인당 특허지표 등 3가지 특허활동을 비교 분석하고 벤처기업과 일반기업의 특허활동이 경영성과에 미치는 영향을 분석하였다. 그 결과 일반기업의 특허활동이 벤처기업의 특허활동보다 경영성과에 더 유의한 정(+)의 영향을 미치고 있음을 밝혔다. 이러한 결과는 규모가 큰 대기업이 R&D 투자를 통해 유효특허등록을 많이 하고 이를 기업가치의 제고 수단으로 활용함을 의미한다. 따라서 다수의 벤처기업이 대기업 수준 이상의 고급특허를 많이 등록할 수 있도록 정책적 대응이 필요함을 시사하고 있다.

  • Purpose - The study analyzed 90 online firms worldwise and observed them for ten years to investigate their investments and firm performance variabilities. This study attemped to verify the existence of agency problems in online firms. Through this, the paper intends to expand the scope of research in the fields of investment and firm value both empirically and in theory. This study also attempted to supplement the insufficient logic of previous studies by analyzing the relationship between investment and profitability. Design/methodology - In this study, the investment is subdivided into over-, under-, and neutral investments, and an empirical analysis of the firm performance was conducted. As investment generally has long-term effects, the impact of a firm's investment on future firm performance and variabilities in firm performance was considered over the short-and medium-term period. Findings - It was found that there was a negative relationship between firms with an overinvestment and future firm performance. Underinvestment has no clear statistically significant results on firm performance. This implies that overinvestment causes more reduction in future firm performance than underinvestment. It was also found that underinvestment and overinvestment significantly increased the variability of firm performance. A positive significance was found between under- and over- investment with a variability of 3 years and overinvestment with a variability of 4 years in the future. A negative relationship was found between neutral investment propensity and future performance variabilities. Neutral investment has less effect on the future performance variability of a firm than a firm's overinvestment and underinvestment. For online firms, underinvestment and overinvestment have a greater effect on the firm's future performance variability than neutral investment. Originality/value - The agency theory predicts that information asymmetry and adverse selection problems exacerbate conflicts of interest among stakeholders, thus firm performance. The study contributed to accumulating research on online firms that are currently underexplored by analyzing the investment behavior of major firms in the online industry.
