| الملخص: | This study focuses on the perfonnance of 788 finns over a 10-year period from year
2000 to 2009 that provide infonnation on market capitalization, net income, tota~ assets,
total common equity, net operating cash flow, the earning per share and the date the
finn was first listed on Bursa Malaysi, The result of statistics summary provide support
to the previous studies that Malayslan dividend payers are more profitable, having
higher net operating cash flow and investment opportunities but lower debt equity ratio
than the non-payers. The result of Logit regression shows that profitability has the
strongest positive influence, debt equity has moderate negative influence and cash flow
has mild positive influence on the probability of dividend yields. Investment
opportunities have been found with no significant contribution. The influence of the
financial variables on dividend yield varies when finns are examined within the context
of size and age of finns. The only exception here is profitability which consistently
shows positive influence and its impact increases across size and age of finns. |
