    Abstract: 自20世紀初以來有許多投資人和金融機構呼籲公司放棄提供盈餘指導,原因主要是盈餘指導會導致盈餘管理進而誤導大眾,吸引到更多短期投資者和內幕交易。然而,仍有許多公司提供盈餘指導,理由是盈餘指導可以降低信息不對稱,降低股價波動度,使分析師有更充足的資訊分析公司。
    本研究以美國上市公司爲例,探究公司停止季度盈餘指導的原因。本研究發現,機構投資者持股比例低的公司,更有可能放棄季度盈餘指導,體現出機構對公司的監督作用,進而使公司持續披露盈餘指導資訊。本文進一步探究持股機構之異質性,公司之集中機構投資人中,有長期、獨立投資機構持股之公司傾向持續提供季度盈餘指導,有短期或灰色投資者持股之公司傾向停止提供季度盈餘指導。指導停止者具有以下特徵,如公司的報酬較差、有會計損失的季度較多、股價波動度大、分析師數量少和公司規模小。因此機構投資者持股小、公司業績差、預測難度大是公司放棄盈餘指導的主要因素。
    Since the early 20th century, many investors and financial institutions have called on companies to abandon earnings guidance. The main reason is that earnings guidance will lead to earnings management, furthering misleads investors, attracting more short-term investors and causing insider trading. From the supporting point of view, earnings guidance can reduce information asymmetry, reduce stock price volatility and enable analysts to know more about the company and better to analyze.
    This study uses US listed companies as a sample to explore the factors that companies stop quarterly earnings guidance. We found that companies with low institutional shareholding proportion are more likely to give up quarterly earnings guidance, which reflects the supervision role of the institution over the company and enables the company to continuously disclose earnings guidance information. We further explore the heterogeneity of institutional shareholders. Among the concentrated institutional investors of companies, companies with long-term, independent institutions are more likely to maintain quarterly earnings guidance, and companies with short-term or grey institutions are more likely to stop quarterly earnings guidance. The guidance stoppers have the characteristics of poor buy-and-hold return, more quarterly accounting losses, high volatility of stock price, few analysts and small company size. Therefore, small institutional ownership, poor performance and difficult forecast are the main reasons for companies to abandon earnings guidance.
