A Study on the Impact of Mixed Reform on the Financial Performance of State-Owned Enterprises

The concept of mixed ownership reform was first put forward in the 1990s, and has been developed and strengthened year by year. Its main purpose is to stimulate the internal vitality of enterprises by introducing the combination of non-state-owned capital and state-owned capital, and optimize the management mechanism through the implementation of mixed ownership reform, so as to promote economic development and enhance the competitiveness of enterprises. This reform process not only contributes to innovation and efficiency within the company, but also lays a solid foundation for the long-term development of the company. Yunnan Baiyao Co., Ltd. is a well-known pharmaceutical enterprise, which has a significant influence and market position in the national pharmaceutical industry, and is also a key enterprise in the early adoption of mixed reform in China. Therefore, it is of great reference value and significance to analyze and study the financial performance of Yunnan Baiyao after the mixed reform. At present, the country is vigorously promoting the mixed ownership reform of state-owned enterprises. Based on this background, this paper, by analyzing the financial performance of enterprises and applying relevant theories involved, makes a detailed case analysis of the development status of Yunnan Baiyao after the mixed reform, with a view to providing some suggestions for similar enterprises or other enterprises with the intention of mixed reform.

State-owned enterprises as countercyclical instruments: Quasi-experimental evidence from the infrastructure sector

This paper examines the effects of a negative macroeconomic shock on the financial performance of state-owned enterprises (SOEs) in infrastructure. The main aim of the paper is to explore whether SOEs serve as countercyclical instruments or whether they end up generating fiscal costs during a downturn, perhaps amplifying negative shocks. The paper introduces a new measure of fiscal injections that includes subsidies, equityrecapitalizations, and loans from the government, other SOEs, or state-owned financial institutions. The empirical setup uses a quasi-experimental setting that exploits the differential effects of a drastic fall in oil prices (in 2014–15) for SOEs in countries that experience a negative aggregate demand drop as a consequence of this shock versus similar firms in countries that do not suffer a downturn from the shock. The results—based on a balanced sample using coarsened exact matching and a differences-in-differences estimation—show that SOEs in treatment countries received increases in fiscal injections as a percent of average assets of 3.5 percent the year after the shock, equivalent to a significant recapitalization. These fiscal injectionstake the form of equity injections and loans from the government and state-owned financial enterprises. The results also show that capital expenditure as a percent of average assets in fully owned infrastructure SOEs decreased by 3.5 percentage points the year after the negative shock, equivalent to a 40 percent decline relative to its average level. In sum, this paper presents evidence that shows that SOEs do not serve as countercyclical tools and, in fact, may amplify negative shocks by requiring fiscal injections for SOEs while also lowering their capital expenditures.

The Power of Voice: Non-State Shareholders and the Labor Redundancy of SOEs

ABSTRACT This paper investigates the impact of non-state-shareholders on the labor redundancy of state-owned enterprises (SOEs). We find that the participation of non-state shareholders helps to reduce the labor redundancy in SOEs. Specifically, non-state shareholders cannot reduce the labor redundancy in SOEs only with holding shares, while they can effectively mitigate the labor redundancy problem by appointing directors to the board. Furthermore, we find that non-state shareholders play a greater role in reducing the labor redundancy for highly labor-intensive SOEs and firms with strong government intervention. Finally, we document that non-state-shareholders help improve the operational and financial performance of SOEs.

A study comparative of PSI, PSI-TOPSIS, and PSI-MABAC methods in analyzing the financial performance of state-owned enterprises companies listed on the Indonesia stock exchange

This research provides deeper insight into the advantages and disadvantages of each MCDM method in the context of evaluating SOE performance rankings. This research also shows the peformance of PSI which is used singly and integrated with other MCDM methods to determine the company?s financial health. Financial health can be reviewed through the company?s financial performance based on its financial ratios. The financial ratio criteria used include Current Ratio (CR), Debt to Equity Ratio (DER), Total Asset Turnover (TATO), and Return on Asset (ROA) as the basis for ranking. The Preference Selection Index (PSI) method is used to determine the weight of criteria and analyze the company's ranking through the identified criteria, while the Preference Selection Index-Technique for Order of Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution (PSI-TOPSIS) and Preference Selection Index-Multi-Attributive Border Approximation Area Comparison methods (PSI-MABAC) is used to continue the weighting process on the PSI method with the results of the rankings of state-owned companies listed on the IDX. The Spearman rank correlation was determined to compare the PSI, PSI-TOPSIS, and PSI-MABAC methods. The results of the comparative analysis showed that PSI-TOPSIS and PSI-MABAC had a greater correlation compared to PSI.

THE IMPACT OF CORPORATE GOVERNANCE ON FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE ON STATE-OWNED ENTERPRISES

This research was conducted with the aim of determining whether corporate governance, as indicated by board size, audit committee size, the proportion of independent directors, and the proportion of independent commissioners, affects financial performance, measured by return on equity. The study was conducted on state-owned enterprises (“SOE”) listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange from 2019 to 2022. The research used an empirical data analysis method by collecting data from the annual financial reports of publicly listed companies in Indonesia, from which 15 companies were selected. The research data was processed using multiple regression analysis with Microsoft Excel 2019 and EViews 12. The results of the study show that corporate governance significantly influences the financial performance of state-owned enterprises (SOE). Variables such as audit committee size and the proportion of independent commissioners have a positive impact on financial performance, while board size and the proportion of independent directors do not affect financial performance. The research findings emphasize the importance of implementing good corporate governance practices in state-owned enterprises. This includes having a broader audit committee and increasing the proportion of independent commissioners on the board of directors. By optimizing these aspects, state-owned enterprises can enhance their financial performance.

Research on the Impact of Actual Tax Bearing Rate on the Financial Performance of Enterprises.

This paper is based on financial data analysis of 241 listed pharmaceutical manufacturing enterprises in China, we study the different effects of different tax reduction policies on the financial performance of enterprises in the short term and long term. Through the verification of practical examples, it could be found that the implementation of a tax reduction policy can indeed play a positive role in the financial performance of enterprises, and the reduction of income tax significantly improves the short-term financial performance of enterprises.

The microeconomic effects of temperature changes

This paper uses financial data from listed Chinese manufacturing companies, combined with meteorological data, to estimate the microeconomic effects of temperature changes. By constructing seasonal average temperatures, we find that average summer temperatures significantly reduce the financial performance, while average winter, spring, and autumn temperatures do not have a significant effect on the corporate financial performance. We further find that the effect of temperature changes on corporate financial performance is nonlinear through temperature bins variables. Both extreme low temperatures (<-12 °C) and high temperatures (>27 °C) have a negative impact on corporate financial performance. The mechanism tests find that high temperatures not only reduce the labor productivity of firms, but also increase the corporate adaptation actions, leading to increased adaptation costs, crowding out productive funds and causing a capital mismatch. Further heterogeneity analysis confirms that the magnitude of the negative effect of temperature changes is limited by the enterprise nature and the region in which the firm is located. The financial performance of state-owned enterprises, firms in the south and developed regions are more vulnerable to high temperatures. This study provides a policy basis for mitigating the negative effects of temperature changes and provides new empirical evidence for climate governance.

Corporate Governance and Intellectual Capital: Impact on the Financial Performance of State-Owned Enterprises in Indonesia

Purposive sampling was used in this study to collect samples, and a total of 164 samples were collected. The data analysis methods utilized in this study include descriptive statistical tests, classic assumption tests, and hypothesis testing utilizing multiple regression analysis by SPSS 25 version. According to the findings of this study, institutional ownership and intellectual capital have a substantial beneficial influence on financial performance, whereas the independent commissioner has a large negative effect on financial performance and the audit committee has no effect on financial performance.

Corporate Governance and Firm Performance in State-Owned Enterprises (SOEs) in Zambia: A Systematic Review

The research systematically documented and described the corporate governance practices and financial performance in State-Owned Enterprises (SOEs) in Zambia from 2006 to 2017. The research design that was adopted was the descriptive research design to systematically describe the corporate governance practices and financial performance of SOEs in Zambia. The corporate governance attributes for SOEs such as board size, board appointing authorities and board membership have been found to be prescribed by a diversity of Acts of Parliament for different SOEs. This finding suggests that the governance of these entities could be a challenge insofar as the uniformity of the legal framework for the governance of the entities was concerned. In addition to this, board membership which are designated by specific government positions rather than merit based, compromises board effectiveness. The study has further shown that failure to produce and publish, for public scrutiny, audited financial statements on a timely basis leads to lack of transparency and accountability. The financial performance has been found to have been poor as the SOEs on average produced negative returns on total assets and the SOEs were highly geared based on operating gearing and financing gearing. Lastly, financial performance of SOEs and the corporate governance practices differed significantly across different industries under which the SOEs operated.

The Effect of the Xi Jinping Administration’s Anticorruption Campaign on the Performance of State-Owned Enterprises

There has been a debate on how the state-driven anticorruption movement during the Xi Jinping administration has influenced state-owned enterprises (SOEs). Research has examined the relationship between corruption and economic development at the country level in Asia and has found paradoxically that economic growth and high corruption levels can coexist. However, the “Asian paradox” that appears at the country level may be a transitional phenomenon of the short term. Not many researchers have empirically compared individual firm-level performance before and after a strong anticorruption drive, drawing on relevant comparison groups. This study tests whether Xi’s 2012 anticorruption campaign improved SOEs’ performance. With a difference-in-differences method, it explores whether the anticorruption campaign had different effects on the financial performance of SOEs and non-SOEs (private companies). We find that the anticorruption initiative improved SOEs’ financial performance and benefited SOEs more than non-SOEs.

Non-commercial goals and financial performance of state-owned enterprises – some evidence from the electricity sector in the EU countries

This study considers the financial performance of state-owned enterprises (SOEs) in relation to non-commercial goals. We focus on enterprises operating in the production of electricity sector in the EU countries and analyse their profitability conditioning on the level of electricity prices. We reveal that SOEs underperform as compared to their privately owned counterparts when they operate in those markets that have lower prices. This suggests that their profitability is likely to be substantially affected by pursuing goals other than profit-maximisation - providing crucial products and services at affordable prices - and emphasises a need to consider the non-commercial objectives of SOEs in the empirical research.
