问题如下:
Which of the following is least likely to be a reason for a company to issue equity securities on the primary market?
选项:
A.
To raise capital.
B.
To increase liquidity.
C.
To increase return on equity.
解释:
C is correct.
Issuing shares in the primary (and secondary) market reduces a company’s return on equity because it increases the total amount of equity capital invested in the company (i.e., the denominator in the ROE formula).
考点:Risk And Return, Market Value and Book Value, Required Return
这道题问公司发行股票主要目的不包括:
A:为了融资
B:为了增加流动性,企业在上市之前,股票是不能被自由买卖的(没有流动性),融资难,所以非上市公司才会通过上市(提高流动性)来进行融资。
C:为了增加净资产收益率,错。因为ROE=NI/Equity,公司发行股票,equity增加(分母),得到ROE降低。
为何在一级市场融资可以增加流动性?
