  • 本研究主要探討公司多角化策略對公司價值與權益價值之影響。本研究使用Worldscope和Datastream 兩種資料庫,資料樣本為從2000年到2009年全球來自48個國家的215,152間公司。本研究參考Berger and Ofek(1995)之超額價值方法,改以市價淨值比與本益比重新計算超額權益價值,做為權益價值之代理變數,實證多角化策略對公司價值與權益價值之影響。本研究透過財務狀況差異的結果穩健度分析是否在不同的財務狀況下,多角化策略會對公司價值與權益價值有不同的影響。因此,使用Altman’s Z-score,將樣本公司分為好、中、差三種財務狀況。比較多角化公司與單一產業公司的平均數是否有差異。結果發現,不同的財務狀況下,多角化策略會產生不同的影響。在財務狀況好的公司,多角化將對權益價值有正面影響;再財務狀況差的公司,多角化對權益價值有負面影響。而且,多角化對公司價值與權益價值的正面或負面影響,將會隨著多角化程度提高,受到更深的影響。
    由於公司多角化會產生波動性效果與破產成本效果。本研究使用回歸分析去比較全部樣本的公司與只有權益的公司(all-equity firms),檢視是否兩種樣本的係數有所不同。本研究發現在全部樣本的公司下,波動性效果與破產成本的效果有抵銷的效果。然而在只有權益的公司的樣本下,波動性效果將會消失,只保留破產成本的效果。

    This study examines the impacts of diversified volatility effect upon the equity value. This study empirically investigates the effects of diversification and volatility on equity value creation using international data from 2000 to 2009. We use Worldscope and Datastream databases, and there are 215,152 firm-years from 48 countries. This study uses robustness check to examine whether corporate diversification has different effect on firm value and equity value in different financial conditions. We use Altman’s Z-score to divide sample firms in to three different financial conditions. The result shows that corporate diversification has different effect on firm value and equity value in different financial conditions. In the sample of good financial condition, corporate diversification has positive effect on equity value. In the sample of bad financial condition, corporate diversification has negative effect on equity value. The positive or negative diversified effect on firm value and equity value would be deeper along with higher degree of diversification.
    Corporation would generate volatility effect and bankruptcy cost effect. This study uses regression model to examine the relation between volatility effect and bankruptcy cost effect. The result shows volatility effect and bankruptcy cost effect have offset in the sample of all firms. In the sample of all-equity firm volatility effect would disappear and only bankruptcy cost survives.
