Capital increase
n=147as of 2026-07-09
Filings on cash capital increases and stock dividends from retained earnings.
| Window | Benchmark | n | Mean abnormal return | Median | q value | Significant |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 5 trading days after | CAR | 128 | +1.93% | +0.13% | 0.066 | Yes |
| 5 trading days after | BHAR | 103 | +4.16% | +1.19% | 0.005 | Yes |
| 20 trading days after | BHAR | 54 | +9.47% | +3.03% | 0.019 | Yes |
Method: the filing's public-availability date is day 0, with a conservative entry on the following trading day. CAR (cumulative abnormal return) is estimated with a market model and calibrated by a placebo test that keeps the event dates but draws random same-day tickers. BHAR (buy-and-hold abnormal return) is measured against size- and liquidity-matched control stocks. All tests carry a multiple-testing correction (BH-FDR). Where the two benchmarks disagree, both are shown as they are — we do not pick the flattering one.
