Abstract
Following provincial quality awards announcements, this study explores whether winners’ financial performance is significantly impacted by the quality award, using OLS and PSM-DID techniques. A placebo parallel trend model is adopted to re-estimate dynamic firms financial performance and test the robustness of the findings. The results show that the quality award significantly impacts manufacturing firms’ financial performance. The regional quality award has significant positive benefits for first-time winners and winning firms located in the Delta region of China. There is a significant positive relationship between the firms’ financial performance and the achievement of quality awards in the long run. The findings expand the research to the relationship between quality awards and firm market value in various institutional contexts. The positive association between a quality award and financial performance confirms the implication for policymakers and the government that a reasonable quality award reduces the quality problem, increases firm value, and supports the awards mechanism in China.
