Specifically, perceptions relating to the following four living-environment crises were evaluated: (1) (un)employment; (2) public safety; (3) infectious disease; (4) pollution. The uncertainty spawned by a crisis and investor perceptions of increased risk may result in indiscriminate panic- and fear-driven selling, with investors seeking refuge in (perceived) less-risky cash positions by selling most or all their assets, regardless of either fundamentals or intangibles like CCR. This study focuses on how investors adjust their firm valuations and risk perceptions during largely unpredictable and unanticipated economic crises and market crashes across firms with differing customer-company relationship performance. Next, we obtained data on customer-company relationships, firm market share, firm stock market performance, relevant firm financial indicators, and other control variables from six independent sources. We computed cumulative abnormal stock returns and idiosyncratic risk using the Carhart (1997) four-factor model, an expanded version of the original Fama-French three-factor model (Fama et al., 1993).Footnote 4 Next, we include data on income statements and balance sheet items to compute market share and others that serve as important financial control variables in our models, and these were collected from Standard & Poor’s Compustat Capital IQ database.
2006) study the customer satisfaction-abnorma l returns relationship from 1997 to 2003 and note that stronger satisfaction companies “seemed to have benefited from some degree of insulation” during the early 2000s recession, but do not explicitly examine this period (Fornell et al., 2006, 8). Aksoy et al. For example, the Standard Industrial Classification (SIC) system was introduced in 1939 and only updated after nearly 50 years as the North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) in 1997. However, the structure of market activity changes much more rapidly and dynamically than is captured in these classification systems, thereby creating a disparity between the actual market structure and the structure assumed by such schemes (Dalziel, 2007). The magnitude of this disparity is so pronounced that by some estimates such static classifications fail to account for nearly 70% of the U.S. For the Great Recession crash, we captured customer satisfaction, customer loyalty, and customer complaint rate for each firm measured by ACSI from July 2007 to June 2008. Similarly, we capture these metrics from January 2019 to December 2019 for the COVID-19 pandemic crash.
Utilizing data from all firms on Compustat, we define markets as comprising a maximum of 50 firms per industry identified based on the similarity/competiti on scores for each possible pair of firms derived from their business descriptions (Bhattacharya et al., 2022).Footnote 10 We then compute market share by dividing sales of the focal firm by those of all firms operating in the dynamically defined market in a given year (2007 and 2019 for the Great Recession and COVID-19 crises, respectively). As such, we obtained the most recent available data on firms’ customer satisfaction, customer loyalty, and customer complaint rate from the ACSI for the period immediately preceding the beginning of the two economic crises.Footnote 7 ACSI conducts surveys throughout each calendar year, with results for different industries and sectors staggered and released throughout the year across different months and fiscal quarters. Finally, we obtained data to control for brand equity, an intangible asset that has been shown to impact firm financial and stock market performance, including during the COVID-19 market crash (Huang et al., 2021; Sorescu & Sorescu, 2016), from the Interbrand rankings.
These uncertainties partially motivate this study and justify the investigation of the effect of strong CCR on firm stock market performance during economic crises and market crash events. To study the effect of CCR on firm stock market performance during the two market crash events, we estimate regression models of stock market performance during the periods as a function of firms’ pre-crisis CCR, its interaction with market share, and the control variables described above. This is because during an unanticipated economic crisis higher market share firms will face greater challenges in maintaining and/or modifying their offerings for this more heterogeneous customer base (cf., Rego et al., 2013), and particularly so for a heterogenous customer base that has also come to expect personalized goods and services, resulting in pre-crisis CCR being a weaker indicator of firms’ performance during the associated market crash. Calculation of a specific firm’s market share requires the identification of other firms that compete in the same market at a נערות ליווי בתל אביב specific point in time. The positive effect of stronger pre-crisis CCR on a firm’s abnormal stock returns during a market crash will be weaker for firms with larger pre-crisis market share.
