International audienceThe purpose of this paper is to examine the influence of governance mechanisms on the earnings management to exceed thresholds. Using a sample of 214 French companies listed on the CAC All Tradable index (former SBF 250) for the 2005-2014 period, we find that some French firms tend to manage earnings in order to avoid losses, decreases in earnings and earnings below the forecasts of analysts. We also find evidence that earnings management to exceed thresholds is affected by the structure of the ownership. Furthermore, our results show that, the level of earnings management is affected by the independence and the activity of the audit committee and by the independence of the board of directors.L’objet de ce papier est d...
