A theoretical framework is developed to set the groundwork for building up my research hypotheses. I hypothesize that the homogeneity across firms may not hold, due to firm-specific, industry-specific, and country specific differences across firms. The dataset consists of36,695 USA, 4,234 UK and 1,181 French firm-year observations over the period 1990-98. Multivariate statistical regression analysis is undertaken to test the major research hypotheses. The major conclusions drawn from the empirical results are summarized as follows. First, results indicate that indeed both earnings and cash flows are taken into consideration by investors in their investment decisions. Second, given cash flows, results show that earnings are always very important to investors and financial analysts for investment purposes; given earnings though results show that cash flows are more important to investors in the Anglo-Saxon countries, possibly due to the lower importance that investors place on the manipulated earnings in these less conservative countries. As far as France is concerned, results reveal that investors place much more attention to earnings and less attention to cash flows. Third, results show that the value relevance of earnings and cash flows is industry specific. Fourth, evidence shows that investors pay more attention to longer-run earnings and cash flows rather than to shorter-run financial information. Fifth, when earnings are transitory (not stable), investors pay more attention to cash flows and less attention to earnings, a result indicating that investors penalize firms with unstable earnings. Sixth, results show that the value relevance of earnings and cash flows is country specific. Specifically, results indicate that earnings are valued more in France and less in the Anglo-Saxon countries, due to the fact that the financial reporting in the Anglo- Saxon countries is much more liberal (less conservative) and managers may manipulate easier financial information. Moreover, as hypothesized, results show that cash flows are the most (least) value relevant in the USA and the UK (France). In summary, the evidence provided in this dissertation supports that indeed there are substantial differences in the way investors and financial analysts perceive financial information such as earnings and cash flows in the UK, France and the USA. The results of this dissertation should be of great importance to the major stakeholders such as investors, creditors, financial analysts, especially after the latest financial scandals and collapses of giant organizations worldwide. Furthermore, these results support that fundamental analysis does play a very important role in the capital markets and it should be taken more seriously into consideration by the stakeholders for investing, credit, financing and valuation analysis purposes.

Your candid contributions never cease to amaze me and for your trust I am truly grateful. Thanks to my supervisors at Loughborough University for their words of wisdom and encouragement. I’ve been connected to the School of Architecture, Building and Civil Engineering on and off since 2008. Whilst I’ve never been permanently based there I have always felt like I belong. I therefore extend this thanks to the wider team at ACBE – you make it a special place to learn. Thank you to all my industrial supervisors (there have been many) for their guidance, with special thanks to Lisa for, in her words, being the best industrial supervisor in the history of industrial supervisors. She’s kind of a big deal. For the hours upon hours of proof reading, not only throughout the years of this study but for all the homework, assignments, applications and papers that have got me to this stage in my life.
