Full textThis dissertation explores novel approaches to develop corporate failure prediction models. This thesis then contains three new areas for intervention. The first is a novel explanatory variable based on earnings management. For this purpose, we use two measures (accruals and real activities) that assess potential earnings manipulation. We evidenced that models which include this novel variable in combination with financial information are more accurate than those relying only on financial data. The second analyzes the capacity of corporate failure models in imbalanced datasets. We put into relation the different degrees of imbalance, the loss on performance and the performance recovery capacity, which have never been studied in corporate failure. The third unifies the previous areas by evaluating the capacity of our proposed earnings management model in imbalanced datasets. Researches covered in this thesis provide unique and relevant contributions to corporate finance literature, especially to corporate failure domain

Full textENGLISH ABSTRACT: Earnings per share and headline earnings per share are two popular performance measures, in spite of a number of shortcomings. This assignment argues that an additional performance measure ought to be disclosed in the financial statements, namely maintainable earnings. The objective of maintainable earnings is to give an indication of the core earnings of the company, excluding the effect of non-recurring items that are not expected to influence the financial results in future years. The reason for this performance measure is mainly based on the needs of the users of financial statements and the application that it finds in their analises. There is circumstancial evidence that shows that users want an indication of maintainable earnings per share. It is also argued that the disclosure of maintainable earnings is in the interest of the users of financial statements, as they do not necessarily have the knowledge or time to make the necessary calculations for themselves. The recommendations made are, among others, that non-recurring items be excluded from the calculation of headline earnings and that changes in accounting estimates be done retrospectively. Recommendations for comprehensive disclosure are also made to be of help in the evaluation of earnings.
AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Verdienste per aandeel en wesensverdienste per aandeel is twee gewilde prestasiemaatstawwe, ten spyte van 'n aantal tekortkominge. Hierdie werkstuk lewer 'n betoog dat 'n addisionele maatstaf in die finansiële state geopenbaar behoort te word, naamlik handhaafbare verdienste. Die doelstelling van handhaafbare verdienste is om 'n aanduiding te gee van die kernverdienste van 'n maatskappy, geskei van die effek van eenmalige items wat na verwagting nie die resultate in toekomstige jare sal beïnvloed nie. Die beweegrede vir so 'n maatstaf word in hoofsaak gebaseer op die behoeftes van gebruikers van finansiële state en die aanwending wat dit in hul analises kan vind. Daar is omstandigheidsgetuienis wat daarop dui dat gebruikers In aanduiding verlang van die handhaafbare verdienste per aandeel. Daar word ook In betoog gelewer dat die openbaarmaking van handhaafbare verdienste in die belang van gebruikers is, aangesien die moontlikheid bestaan dat gebruikers nie noodwendig die kennis of tyd het om self so In berekening te maak nie. Die voorstelle wat gemaak word, behels onder andere die uitsluiting van eenmalige items uit die berekening van handhaafbare verdienste en dat veranderinge in rekeningkundige ramings terugwerkend aangepas behoort te word. Daar word ook voorstelle gemaak vir omvattende openbaarmaking ten einde die oorweging van verdienste te vergemaklik.
