Abstract:
This study investigates the value relevance of earnings and the book value of equity in Turkey over the 2003-2009 period. It also focuses on the effects of the Global Financial Crisis and the negative earnings on the value relevance of the stated accounting values. To do this, a number of manufacturing firms are analyzed using both pooled ordinary least squares and panel data regression analysis. The results of the price models reveal that the value relevance of earnings and the book value of equity declined whereas, for the return models, the value relevance of earnings declined in the Global Financial Crisis period compared to non-crisis periods. Additionally, the results provide evidence that the value relevance of earnings for loss-making firms was lower than profit-making ones. Also, these results do not differ across the sub-sectors of the manufacturing sector.
