By using stock return, financial performance, and operating efficiency as indicators to measure the corporate performance. Dependent variables include buy-andhold return, excess stock return, return on assets, net profit margin, Tobin`s Q, gross profit margin, and operating expense ratio. The percentage of board members is used as an independent variable to establish a multiple regression model. The empirical results show that female independent directors are significantly positively correlated with stock return, financial performance, and operating efficiency. The empirical results show that during the outbreak of COVID-19, female independent directors have monitoring function and risk-averse characteristics, thereby promoting the company to produce better financial performance. Our empirical findings indicate that the firm with higher percentage of female independent directors have better corporate performance during the COVID-19 period. |
