Abstract
This paper analyses the flotation costs and the share price reaction of equity offerings in Spain. The results report a positive relationship between relative flotation costs and the underwriting of an issue, and a negative relationship between such costs and ownership concentration. Fixed flotation costs and a negative relationship with the gross offer proceeds are also observed. On average, there is a negative share price reaction on the date of the ‘previous communication’ to the Comisión Nacional del Mercado de Valores. The different sub‐samples analysed according to the underwriting of the issue and the discount offered reveal no statistical differences.
