Abstract

This paper analyses the long-run shareholders¿ wealth effect and the firms¿ operating performance of the rights offerings decision in Spain. The evidence shows that the stock price of firms¿ issuing rights substantially under-perform the different benchmarks employed. It has also been observed that these companies experience a decrease in the accounting profitability for some pre- to post-issue periods. The optimism about the investment opportunities of issuing firms could explain these results. Este trabajo presenta evidencia empírica del efecto que los aumentos de capital realizados en el mercado español tienen a largo plazo en la rentabilidad del accionista y en los resultados contables empresariales. Se ha observado que los inversores revisan a la baja el precio de las acciones de las empresas que adoptan esta decisión y que estos resultados son robustos a las diferentes referencias utilizadas para calcular las rentabilidades anormales. También se ha constatado que las compañías emisoras experimentan una disminución en los resultados contables en el año del aumento de capital y en los dos siguientes. El excesivo optimismo acerca de las oportunidades de inversión de las empresas que deciden ampliar capital podría explicar esta evidencia.
