  • Dividend Announcement: Is It a Good News to the Bahrain Bourse?
    International Journal of Economics and Finance; Vol. 6, No. 12; 2014 ISSN 1916-971X E-ISSN 1916-9728 Published by Canadian Center of Science and Education Dividend Announcement: Is It a Good News to the Bahrain Bourse? Batool K. Asiri1 1 College of Business Administration, University of Bahrain, Bahrain Correspondence: Batool K. Asiri, College of Business Administration, University of Bahrain, Bahrain. E-mail: [email protected] Received: September 15, 2014 Accepted: September 29, 2014 Online Published: November 25, 2014 doi:10.5539/ijef.v6n12p228 URL: http://dx.doi.org/10.5539/ijef.v6n12p228 Abstract This paper presents a study of 157 dividend announcements made by 40 companies listed in the Bahrain Bourse and an examination of the relationship between dividend announcements and the stock market. The study lasted from 2004 to 2013, and the results indicate that investors have gained cumulative abnormal returns that average at 2.29 percent within the 30-day periods before and after the dividend announcement. Moreover, the findings have revealed that investors gained approximately 0.45 percent of the market value on all stocks that had increasing dividends; therefore, it can be reasonably concluded that, when announced to the public, dividend increases promote a positive message about a company’s future growth and the promise of sustained cash flow. Alternatively, it could be seen as the Bahrain Bourse is inefficient in a semi-strong form. The study further highlights that abnormal returns gained by investors tend to vary across sectors. In general, the findings of this study fail to provide significant evidence in support of the dividends irrelevancy theory; on the contrary, they indicate that dividend payments act as positive signals that assure investors of steady cash flow and substantial future earnings.
