โœฆ Synopsis

This chapter investigates whether abnormal reverse split announcement returns are related to information about earnings. I find that abnormal announcement returns are negative on average and significantly correlated with unexpected earnings in the years prior to, and subsequent to the reverse split event. I also find that analyst earnings forecasts are revised downwards after reverse split announcements and that these forecast revisions are correlated with abnormal announcement returns. Finally, I document a significant decrease in earnings response coefficients (ERC) after the reverse split announcements. These results suggest that reverse splits provide information about the permanence of past and future earnings performance.

## Abstract Current literature is inconclusive as to whether idiosyncratic risk influences future stock returns and the direction of the impact. Earlier studies are based on historical realized volatility. Implied volatilities from option prices represent the market's assessment of future risk and
