We show that REITs managers engage in real earnings management instead of accrual earnings management to attract more uninformed trading in order to provide the liquidity service at a lower cost during seasoned equity offerings. We find REITs with higher liquidity risk are more likely to manipulate earnings prior to equity offerings and uninformed trading is higher following real earnings management. Firms set the offer price at a smaller discount after engaging in real earnings management and stock returns decline in the long run. The findings are consistent with real option and liquidity risk explanations for equity offerings. 2018-01-21T08:00:00Z text https://ink.library.smu.edu.sg/lkcsb_research/7232 info:doi/10.1007/s11146-017-9649-5 Research Collection Lee Kong Chian School Of Business eng Institutional Knowledge at Singapore Management University Real estate investment trust Seasoned equity offerings Liquidity risk Real earnings management Finance and Financial Management Real Estate |
