Abstract

This paper examines whether investors use information contained in the prospectus as indicators of firm quality and incorporate this information when pricing an IPO firm, and then it relates these IPO valuations to post-IPO returns. The study is based on a sample of IPO firms that went public on the Warsaw Stock Exchange during the period from 1998 to 2011. We find that a firm’s performance before going public is perceived by investors as an indicator of future performance and it affects IPO valuation. Specifically, our results indicate that high profitability achieved before IPO allows to obtain a high issue price to book value per share ratio. However, our results indicate that the relation between valuation during issuance and profitability gets weaker and ultimately completely disappears after IPO. As a result, 2 years after issuance there are no differences between firms’ performance no matter how high they were valued during IPO. Investors willing to pay a higher price for IPO shares do not achieve extra benefits both in terms of accounting and market rates of return.

Lowry (2003) indicates that not only the level of investor sentiment but also companies’ demand for capital explain a significant amount of the variation in IPO volume.

MtB effect states that securities with high ratios between their market value and their book or equity value, persistently obtain lower returns than those securities with low MtB ratios (e g. Fama and French 1992).
