How to understand "the capital structure of a company has nothing to do with its market value"?
However, in MM theory, enterprise income tax is not considered. Without paying taxes, liabilities can't reflect the role of "tax shield", that is to say, the amount of liabilities is the same, and the ratio of equity to liabilities is not important at the same cost. Anyway, it pays the same money, so it has no effect on the company's value.
1, the net income theory, holds that the higher the debt, the greater the enterprise value, because the rate of return required by shareholders is greater than the debt-cost ratio, and the higher the debt ratio, the lower the capital cost, which leads to the greater the enterprise value;
2. The operating income theory holds that the enterprise value has nothing to do with the capital structure. The theory holds that the reduction of capital cost caused by debt cost will be balanced with the increase of equity risk caused by the increase of financial leverage, that is, the cost of capital will never change;
3. According to the traditional theory, moderate debt can reduce the cost of capital, while the rise of excessive debt and equity cost can not be offset by low debt cost, which will increase the cost of capital, that is, there is an optimal capital structure, which makes the capital cost rate of enterprises the lowest and the enterprise value the highest;
4. Trade-off theory holds that there is bankruptcy cost, and appropriate debt can reduce the cost of capital. The increase of excessive debt and bankruptcy cost cannot be offset by low-cost debt, which will increase the cost of capital, that is, there is an optimal capital structure, which makes the capital cost rate of enterprises the lowest and the value of enterprises the highest.
The market value capital structure of Company A at the beginning of the year is considered as the target capital structure. The information is as follows (unit: yuan): Capital structure and capital structure are different in raising funds.
Capital structure is the proportion of people and the specific content of capital invested in the process, such as the proportion of monetary funds or physical funds.
Capital structure should generally be the amount of current assets, fixed assets, intangible assets, liabilities and owners' equity reflected in the balance sheet, including the ratio of current assets to total assets, examples of total assets and liabilities, and the ratio of liabilities to owners' equity. These ratios are widely used in practice, and banks should also consider loan-to-deposit ratio and asset-liability ratio when considering loans.
How to view the capital structure of listed companies 1 Open the stock trading software, enter the stock code or abbreviation, and press the shortcut key F 10 to view the asset classification of listed companies, such as net assets per share and earnings per share.
2. Assets refer to resources formed by past business transactions or events of an enterprise, which are owned or controlled by the enterprise and are expected to bring economic benefits to the enterprise. Assets refer to anything with commercial or exchange value owned by any company, institution or individual. There are many classifications of assets, such as current assets, fixed assets, tangible assets, intangible assets and real estate.
What industries in China have fundamentally different capital structures from listed companies in the whole market? If we want to talk about industries, banks and the capital structure of this industry are mainly liabilities.
How is the capital structure and company performance analyzed? 1.
Capital structure is the concentrated expression of the rights and obligations of enterprise stakeholders, which affects and determines the corporate governance structure and even the enterprise value. Reasonable capital structure can improve the efficiency of corporate governance, standardize corporate behavior and enhance corporate value. For a long time, the theoretical circle has never stopped discussing the relationship between capital structure and enterprise performance. The research on the relationship between capital structure and company value by modern capital structure theory has gone through the process from irrelevant to relevant. MM theory (regardless of enterprise income tax) holds that under the perfect capital market conditions, the choice of capital structure will not affect the value of the company. Since then, MM theory (considering enterprise income tax), Miller model, trade-off theory, agency cost theory, signal transmission theory, control theory and a series of capital structure theories all think that the choice of capital structure will affect the company value.
For the research on the correlation between capital structure and operating performance in China, Lu and Xin Yu (1998) conducted a multiple linear regression analysis of 35 listed companies in the machinery and transportation equipment industry in Shanghai, and found that there were significant differences in capital structure in different industries, and there was a significant negative correlation between profitability and capital structure, while factors such as scale, asset guarantee value and growth had little influence on capital structure. Li Yichao and Jiang Zhensheng (200 1) use the mixed data from 1992 to 1999, and adopt the methods of cross-sectional analysis and TSCS analysis to draw the conclusion that the capital structure of listed companies in China is negatively related to corporate performance. Yu Dongzhi (2003) found that there is a strong negative correlation between asset-liability ratio and corporate performance by studying the relationship between ownership structure, governance efficiency and corporate performance. Liu Zhibiao and others (2003) took the lead in combining industrial economics with capital structure research in China. Their research results confirm that there is a significant positive correlation between the capital structure of enterprises and the competitive intensity of their product markets, and there is a significant negative correlation between capital structure and performance. Xiao Zuoping (2005) studied the interactive relationship between capital structure and corporate performance of listed companies, and concluded that there is an interactive relationship between capital structure and corporate performance, financial leverage is negatively correlated with corporate performance, and the shareholding ratio of the largest shareholder is inverted U-shaped.
From the development of capital structure theory, except for a few studies that the capital structure of enterprises has nothing to do with performance, western theories and studies generally believe that the business performance of enterprises is positively related to the capital structure. However, there are few conclusions about China (Hong Xixi and Shen Yifeng, 2000; And, 2002), it is generally believed that the operating performance of enterprises is negatively related to the capital structure (Lu,1996; Liu Zhibiao, 2003; Yu Dongzhi, 2003; Xiao Zuoping, 2005).
Classical theory is "unaccustomed" in China, probably because of the different institutional environment. The developed capital market, strict supervision system, perfect legal system and mature manager market in the west provide fertile ground for the growth of capital structure theory, but China does not have these conditions.
Secondly, there are some differences in the selection of company performance indicators. Many scholars choose ROE to measure the company's performance. ROE is an international general index reflecting the profitability of capital, and it is also the core index in DuPont system. Its advantage is strong comprehensive ability, but its disadvantage is that it is easy to be manipulated and its effect will be affected.
Finally, the factors affecting the company's performance are not fully considered. There are many factors that affect performance, not only by capital structure, but also by industry and company scale. Omitting important factors can easily lead to biased estimation results, and even cover up the real relationship between capital structure and corporate performance. Therefore, we should add relevant control variables to the study.
Based on the above analysis, this paper takes 64 real estate listed companies in Shanghai and Shenzhen A-shares in China from 2005 to 2009 as research samples, adopts the methods of principal component analysis and linear regression, and expects to make new attempts in establishing research models and selecting data to make up for the shortcomings of the above research and verify the relationship between capital structure and company performance.
2. Theoretical analysis and research hypothesis
2. 1 Debt structure and enterprise performance
Western theory generally believes that high debt does not necessarily lead to low performance of enterprises, but the key lies in whether debt management is effective [1]. Debt affects company performance, mainly through affecting the behavior of operators. As the direct manager of an enterprise, the behavior of the operator is closely related to the performance of the company. First of all, debt is a binding creditor's right, usually paid in a fixed amount, but the principal and interest must be repaid on time, otherwise it will face the threat of litigation or even bankruptcy. Therefore, when the debt ratio of the enterprise is too high, the operator should consider reducing the free cash flow of the enterprise, so as to restrain the operator from using the excessive free cash flow of the enterprise to carry out various behaviors that are beneficial to him. Secondly, on the premise that the total amount of enterprise financing and the number of operators' shares remain unchanged, adopting debt financing is equivalent to reducing the proportion of equity financing and increasing the proportion of operators' shares, thus improving the enthusiasm of operators. Therefore, we can get:
Suppose 1: the asset-liability ratio is positively related to the business performance of the enterprise.
According to the trade-off theory, the enterprise value first increases with the increase of debt ratio. When the debt ratio reaches a certain point, the role of bankruptcy cost and agency cost is significantly enhanced, and the enterprise value begins to decline. With the increase of debt ratio, the enterprise value has a maximum, and the debt ratio at this time is the best debt ratio. Based on foreign research conclusions and classical theories, combined with the actual situation in China, this paper puts forward:
Hypothesis 2: There is an inverted U-shaped quadratic parabola relationship between enterprise performance and asset-liability ratio, that is, before the enterprise debt reaches a certain level, enterprise performance increases with the increase of debt, and when the enterprise debt exceeds a certain level, enterprise performance decreases with the increase of debt.
2.2 Ownership Structure and Enterprise Performance
Agency cost thinks that the relative concentration of equity can effectively save agency cost. Under the condition of relatively concentrated equity, the controlling shareholder has supervision and incentive, which can distract shareholders from the problem of "hitchhiking"
Large shareholders have the ability to restrain management from sacrificing shareholders' interests and seeking their own interests, and can supervise managers more effectively, thus enhancing the effectiveness of market execution and reducing managers' agency costs. In addition, because this belongs to the internal control of the company, the cost is relatively small and the governance cost is low. However, Shleifer and Vishny further put forward in 1997 that the prerequisite for major shareholders to play a good role is to have a good legal environment to protect small and medium-sized investors and prevent major shareholders from harming the interests of small and medium-sized shareholders through their control rights. However, the legal environment in China is not optimistic, and the relevant laws are incomplete and invalid, so we put forward hypothesis 3:
Hypothesis 3: Operating performance is negatively correlated with the shareholding ratio of the largest shareholder.
From the analysis of the third chapter, we can see that there is an obvious problem of "one share dominates" in China's real estate industry. Under the special institutional background of China, the largest shareholder of listed companies is often the state holding. Although the proportion of state-owned shares has declined in recent years, the phenomenon of monopoly is still obvious. So we put forward hypothesis 4:
Hypothesis 4: Enterprise performance is negatively correlated with the proportion of state-owned shares.
3. Research and design
This paper analyzes the financial data of real estate listed companies from 2005 to 2009. In order to reduce the influence of other factors on the company's performance and ensure the validity of the data, this paper sets the following criteria to screen the samples: (1) In order to partially eliminate the non-operating factors such as high resource value and capital reorganization of loss-making enterprises caused by the listing quota system of listed companies, enterprises in ST and PT sectors are excluded. (2) In addition, the financial information of some companies in certain years is unavailable or abnormal, which is also excluded.
3. 1 variable design
3. 1. 1 Determination of business performance indicators
From the analysis of the introduction, we can see that there are generally two methods to measure performance indicators. One is the performance measurement of a single indicator, such as ROA, ROE, EVA, TobinQ, etc. The other is multi-index performance measurement. At present, the methods of multi-index mainly include factor analysis, balanced scorecard and analytic hierarchy process. However, a single indicator often has certain limitations, can not fully reflect the efficiency of corporate governance, and is subjective and easy to be manipulated, thus greatly reducing the accuracy of empirical analysis. Therefore, this paper chooses a variety of indicators as the method of performance measurement, and uses factor analysis to evaluate the performance. The factor analysis of this paper selects 1 1 financial indicators to measure the performance of enterprises from four aspects: profitability, solvency, growth ability and operational ability.
3. 1.2 Determination of capital structure indicators and control variables
The capital structure studied in this paper is based on its broad definition, so it includes equity structure and creditor's rights structure. This paper selects asset-liability ratio [2], long-term debt ratio and current debt ratio as the measurement indexes of debt structure; Select the largest shareholder's equity concentration, the top ten shareholders' equity concentration and the proportion of state-owned shares to measure the ownership structure. In addition, there are some other factors that affect the business performance of enterprises. In order to control the influence of other factors, this paper introduces the company size as the control variable. See the following table for the selection of specific variables and their measurement methods:

3.2 Research design
In order to study how the capital structure of real estate listed companies affects their operating performance, based on the previous analysis and referring to the research on capital structure at home and abroad, this paper establishes the following regression equation:
P=β0+β 1 RDA+β2 RDA? +β3 ldar+β4 sdar+β5s 1+β6 HSP 10+β7 sp+β8 size+ε
This model is a quadratic regression model, which can test whether there is an optimal capital structure and make the financial performance of listed companies optimal, so it can provide us with the optimal combination interval between variables. Where P is the comprehensive performance index of the enterprise, RDA is the asset-liability ratio, ldar is the long-term debt ratio, sdar is the current debt ratio, s 1 is the shareholding ratio of the largest shareholder, hsp 10 is the shareholding ratio of the top ten shareholders, sp is the proportion of state-owned shares, size is the company size, and β0 is the intercept term.
4. Analysis of empirical research results
4. 1 Evaluate the business performance of the enterprise through factor analysis.
Through factor analysis, six factors that explain the variables are obtained, which are represented by Y 1, Y2, Y3, Y4, Y5 and Y6 respectively. The comprehensive measurement index P is the weighted average weight of each principal component and the variance contribution rate of each factor, and the expression is:
p =(26.479% y 1+20.42 1% Y2+ 10.224% Y3+9.202% Y4+8.825% Y5+8.47 1% Y6)/83.622%

As can be seen from the analysis results of the above table, the asset-liability ratio of enterprises is significantly positively correlated with performance; There is a significant inverted U-shaped quadratic parabola relationship between enterprise performance and asset-liability ratio; The shareholding ratio of the largest shareholder is negatively correlated with enterprise performance; The proportion of state-owned shares is negatively correlated with enterprise performance.
5. Research conclusions
(A) the enterprise has the optimal asset-liability structure.
From the above regression results, it can be seen that there is a significant downward quadratic curve relationship between the comprehensive operating performance of enterprises and the asset-liability ratio, which shows that the listed real estate companies in China do have an optimal capital structure. Generally speaking, the cost of debt is lower than the cost of equity, so borrowing can reduce the cost of capital and improve the value of enterprises. However, if there is too much debt and the repayment pressure increases, the dilemma cost and bankruptcy cost of the enterprise will increase, thus affecting the efficiency of the enterprise and reducing the value of the enterprise.
(B) Monopoly has a negative impact on enterprise performance.
From the previous analysis, it can be seen that monopoly exists in real estate listed companies in China. Shleifer and Vishny believe that the existence of major shareholders can solve the problem of insiders' control rights, but the premise for major shareholders to play a good role is to have a good legal environment to protect small and medium-sized investors and prevent major shareholders from harming the interests of small and medium-sized shareholders through their control rights. However, the legal environment in China is not optimistic, and the relevant laws are incomplete and ineffective. Therefore, "one share dominates" is not an effective measure. From an empirical point of view, the shareholding ratio of China's largest shareholder has a significant negative impact on the overall performance of enterprises.
(C) State-owned holding is not conducive to the improvement of enterprise performance
In the real estate listed companies, although the state-owned holding company has been declining, its dominance has not changed. The ownership of these shares belongs to the state, but the state cannot directly exercise ownership. Generally, the state-owned assets management department is entrusted to exercise the management right on its behalf. On the other hand, the governance structure of listed companies in China's real estate industry lacks a restraint mechanism for operators, agents are not well supervised, the business performance of enterprises is not linked to the economic interests of operators themselves, and operators do not aim at maximizing the value of enterprises. From an empirical point of view, state-owned holding has a significant negative impact on the overall performance of enterprises.
The influence of capital structure on the company We study the capital structure, which is to optimize the capital structure and determine a reasonable capital structure, so as to achieve a virtuous circle of enterprise funds, reduce the cost of capital, reduce financial risks, and improve the solvency and performance of enterprises. However, there are still some defects in the empirical research in this field, and it is necessary to make the following amendments:
First of all, because the business strategy of an enterprise will determine the investment decision of the enterprise, and the investment decision will affect the financing choice of the enterprise, different strategies need to have appropriate capital structure. The study of capital structure should include the strategic factors of enterprises.
Secondly, these scholars mainly study the relationship between enterprise performance and enterprise capital structure from the perspective of the influence of enterprise performance on capital structure, but to some extent ignore the research on how capital structure affects enterprise performance, so the empirical research on the interaction between them needs to be strengthened.
Finally, in the selection of data, we should overcome the limitation of the previous cross-sectional data samples to two to three years, and choose the panel data model to examine the capital structure from a longer time span, so as to combine the advantages of time series and cross-sectional data, expand the sample size, and improve the effectiveness and stability of the demonstration estimation.
Therefore, when studying capital structure on the basis of previous research methods, we should pay attention to the interaction between capital structure and enterprise performance, business strategy and equity structure, especially the influence of the interaction between equity structure, business strategy and dynamic changes of external environment on capital structure. Ignoring these interactive effects may be the reason why the existing research conclusions of capital structure in China are inconsistent.
The relationship between the company's market value and the company's profit reflected by the company's stock is mutually beneficial and complementary. There will be related dividends, and shareholders can earn profits through dividends in addition to stock price fluctuations.
When the company's stock went public, the relevant companies got a batch of funds from the market, and the rise and fall of the stock in the market had nothing to do with the company.
The normal fluctuation of the company's stock price is not very concerned, as long as it is maintained at a reasonable level.
The capital market is different from the financial personnel of corporate finance companies or the evaluation fund of securities companies, and it pays more attention to financial management, but it is not easy to find a job now.
The relationship between registered capital and company's equity structure. The questions you ask here involve too much content.
1, registered capital. According to the current company law, the subscription system, so the first thing you need to confirm is whether the registered capital of 654.38+0 million has been put in place. According to the company law, this fund will be in place sooner or later. The share capital of ABC three people must be in place.
2. Attributes and ownership of intangible assets. Intangible assets after the establishment of a company, such as patents, such as trademarks, depend on who owns them. If it is a company, then this part of the value belongs to the company and belongs to undistributed owner's equity. If it is realized, it will be regarded as operating income. As you said, it is actually a quantitative capital increase of intangible assets. However, it also belongs to three shareholders of ABC. In addition, the share of intangible assets in registered capital is stipulated by law. When the company is established, the monetary contribution shall not be less than 30% of the registered capital, that is, the intangible assets shall not exceed 70% of the registered capital. When the company applies for listing, the proportion of intangible assets (excluding land use rights, breeding rights, mining rights, etc. ) Not higher than 20% of the net assets at the end of the latest period. For example, you used to be the registered capital of three shareholders, 60: 15: 25, 1 ten thousand. The appraised value of your intangible assets is 6,543,800,000 yuan. After industrial and commercial changes and capital increase, the registered capital of the company is 2 million yuan, and the paid-in capital of three shareholders is 654.38+020: 30: 50, but the shareholding ratio remains unchanged.
3. Venture capital financing. The addition of new shareholders diluted the shareholding ratio of the original shareholders. Of course, due to the entry of funds, the registered capital can be increased, which is a capital increase behavior. After the capital increase, the actual net contribution of all shareholders to the total share capital will be redistributed, and the Agricultural Bank of China will increase the risk capital D. In this way, the proportion of shares of the original three shareholders will inevitably decline. This is equity dilution. For example, as the investor of the seed round, the shareholder has already contributed 2 million yuan, and the equity you agree to transfer is 10%, which means the registered capital has reached 20 million yuan. This is the premium valuation. Shareholder D accepted this premium and thought that the future company would be worth 20 million yuan. In order to ensure the proportion of the company's share capital, the original ABC shareholders need to redistribute the subscribed and paid-in share capital according to the same premium ratio.
