7 Hassel (2007) Environmental Risk and Opportunity and the Economic Value of Companies EVrisk Return on Assets Market Value

8 ROA = α i + β i1 Evrisk + β i2 BVassets + β i3 Debt/Assets + ư it R 2 = (31.73) (5.50) (- 6.23) (-11.80) Tob Q = α i + β i1 Evrisk + β i2 growth + β i3 age + β i3 size + β i4-7 + ưit R 2 = (21.84) (-5.23) (7.00) (-1.14) (-18.23)

9 ROA (MEAN)Q (Mean) LoRisk industryHiRisk industry Statistically different means (t-test)

10 Does good environmental management pay off in high EVRisk industries ? Environmental Preparedness and Performance (lower specific Environmental Risk) Return on Assets Cost of Capital Market Value

11 Hi vs Lo EVRisk Industries >Operating performance (ROA) higher in HiRisk Industries ! >but ROA decreases with good environmental management >consequently lower cost of capital! >Market value (Q) lower in HiRisk Industries >Environmental risk discount >but market value improves with good environmental management! >Environmental opportunity premium

12 Conclusion >Good companies are rewarded for their ’goodness’ in bad industries!!! >Lower cost of capital (lower ROA) >Higher market values >Environmental risk and opportunity are likely to have longer term implications for firm value
