The use of earnings management to produce earnings reports that meet analysts’ earnings forecasts is widespread among managers of public firms. This dissertation studies how the managerial incentive to meet the analysts’ earnings forecasts affects the analysts’ information acquisition and their earnings forecasts. To explore this setting, a three-stage signalling model is proposed that builds on the work of Cheng et al. (2006). The model shows that a rise in a manager’s incentive to meet the analyst’s forecast reduces the extent to which the analyst acquires costly information on the firm’s fundamental earnings. This has a negative impact on the quality of both the analyst’s earnings forecast and the manager’s reported earnings.Um die Gewin...
