| description | Stock price performance resulting from voluntary divestiture has been shown to vary depending upon the motivation for divestiture. In a previous study it was shown that voluntary divestiture motivations depend on the life-cycle stage of the divestor. The present study shows that stock price performance surrounding a divestiture announcement depends on the life-cycle stage of the divesting firm, with firms in the later life-cycle stages generally performing more poorly than firms in earlier life-cycle stages. No group was shown, however, to generate significant positive cumulative average residuals over the observation period when compared to an appropriately matched control group. |
