Abstract: | We find that performance commitment provisions in Chinese acquisitions show positive economic outcomes measured by improved abnormal returns and lower market crash risk using hand-collected data. We further illustrate that the positive effects of performance commitment contracts are alleviated when TMTs have a high level of self-interests. We also investigate that, regulatory adjustments actually worsen the positive effect of performance commitment in acquisitions. The fact shows the short-termism effect of Chinese capital market imposed by the regulatory changing risk. Our study complements the earnout literature and show distinctive Chinese characteristics. |
