Resumo
This research paper investigates the issue of pre-IPO capital infusion and underwriting. During the bullish market from 2004 to 2008, a great number of Brazilian companies decided to go public. In many of these issues, the issuing company had received capital from its underwriters through lending and/or equity ownership. Recent research papers in Brazil argue that these loans had the intention to inflate issuing companies and deceive investors. Through an analysis of Earnings Management and Price Stabilization our research found evidences that underwriters stabilize more and with higher intensity those IPOs in which they lent money or bought equity stake in issuing companies. When looking at Earnings Management the result shows no difference between firms that received capital and those that did not.
