This study aims to evaluate the effect of corporate internal financing on the growth potential of listed agricultural firms in Nigeria. The specific objectives of this study were to evaluate the effect of retained earnings ratio, depreciation and amortization to value-added ratio, and working capital to net operating cash flow ratio on the growth rate of the selected listed agricultural firms in Nigeria. The study adopted an ex-post facto design. Data were generated from the audited financial reports of the four selected listed agricultural firms from 2012-2022. A pooled multiple regression technique was employed to analyze the data using Stata 14.2. The study found that assets retained earnings ratio, depreciation and amortization to value-added ratio, and working capital to net operating cash flow ratio have non-significant positive, negative and negative effects on growth rate with t-statistics and (p-values) 0.28 (0.845), -1.27 (0.215) and -0.54 (0.594) respectively. The result also showed that leverage has a strong positive effect on growth rate with t-statistics and (p-values) 2.53 (0.006) with quality of earnings ratio having a non-significant effect on potential growth rate. These results imply that none of the internal financing options is sufficient to spur growth in the agricultural firms in Nigeria, hence they have shifted to the second pecking order theoretical choice of business financing despite the harsh business conditions and high cost of finance.
本研究旨在评估企业内部融资对尼日利亚上市农业公司增长潜力的影响。本研究的具体目标是评估留存收益比率、折旧和摊销与增值比率以及营运资本与净营运现金流比率对所选尼日利亚上市农业公司增长率的影响。本研究采用事后分析法。数据来源于所选四家上市农业公司 2012-2022 年经审计的财务报告。研究采用集合多元回归技术,使用 Stata 14.2 对数据进行分析。研究发现,资产留存收益率、折旧摊销与增加值比率、营运资本与经营性净现金流比率对增长率具有不显著的正向、负向和负向影响,t 统计量和 p 值分别为 0.28 (0.845)、-1.27 (0.215) 和 -0.54 (0.594)。结果还显示,杠杆率对增长率有很大的正向影响,其 t 统计量和 p 值分别为 2.53 (0.006) 和 2.53 (0.006),而盈利质量比率对潜在增长率的影响不显著。这些结果表明,内部融资方案都不足以刺激尼日利亚农业企业的增长,因此,尽管经营条件苛刻,融资成本高昂,农业企业在企业融资的理论选择上仍处于次要地位。

Behavioural finance argues that an investor's decision-making process for investments is influenced by a complex mixture of factors that have a role in an investor's decision-making process. The study of behavioural aspects in financial markets is somewhat of an emerging concept and the determinants are not considerably addressed. In the same context, it's argued that financial literacy has a substantial part in predicting investments. However, past studies neglect to examine the moderation effect of financial literacy on an individual's investment decision in the stock market. The primary objective of this study is to examine the relationship between determinants of investor behaviour and an individual's investment decisions considering the moderating effect of financial literacy in such relationships. The targeted population and key informants were drawn from the individual investors invested in companies listed on the Iraq stock exchange. An online survey-based method was used to collect data from individual investors in Iraq to help validate the hypothesised relationships. Variance-based SEM, known as the SmartPLS method, was applied in this study. The study found that firm image coincidence, accounting information, neutral information, advocate recommendations, and personal financial needs have a significant positive relationship with individual investment decision-making of Iraqi investors. Financial literacy was found to be a significant moderator in these relationships.
