There are important contingencies upon which a first move may or may not be successful. One such contingency, described herein, is organizational capacity, a multidimensional construct that aids the firm in creating sources of advantage from a first move. Additionally, the role of environmental dynamism as an influence on organizational capacity’s moderating effect on the relationship between first-moves and performance is discussed. Hypotheses concerning these effects, including some differential effects of the components of organizational capacity, are developed. Event study and multiple regression analyses are used to test these hypotheses. The findings of
