活动简介:

Existing studies document diverse benefits of information search, but company information search can also signal adverse selection. Analyzing takeover targets’ digital footprints in the pre-announcement period, we find that target information search is negatively associated with cumulative abnormal returns following takeover announcements. Our findings are robust to a battery of additional tests and two identification strategies to control for potential endogeneity bias. Information-searching targets also capture lower takeover premiums, which reinforces the prediction that information search activities are associated with a lower target shareholder value around takeover announcements. The negative relationship between information search and target announcement returns is stronger for targets with higher bankruptcy risk and higher CEO ownership, while target-acquirer social ties mitigate this negative effect. Overall, the results highlight that targets’ information search behavior sends signals of adverse selection.
