Abstract
The discussion will focus on how financial analysts respond to firms’ environmental disclosure. Drawing on the literature on infomediaries and the distinct characteristics of environmental information, it will be argued that such disclosures may introduce negative biases in analysts’ evaluations. Specifically, it will be suggested that analysts apply two types of discounts to disclosing firms: a “costly-to-analyze discount,” due to the cognitive effort required to interpret such information, and a “deflection discount,” stemming from the perception that these disclosures are intended to distract from other negative information. Consequently, it will be hypothesized that firms providing environmental disclosure receive less favorable recommendations from analysts. The discussion will further explore how this negative relationship will vary as a function of firms’ conformity to disclosure standards, the expertise and resources that analysts can tap into, and in case of negative earnings surprises. Using a panel of 54,548 analyst-firm-quarter observations from 2011 to 2020, consistent evidence of this negative bias will be identified. However, this effect is mitigated when firms conform to disclosure standards, when analysts have greater expertise and resources, and, unexpectedly, during negative earnings surprises. These findings refine our understanding of the role of infomediaries in interpreting environmental transparency and highlight the nuanced dynamics between environmental disclosure and analysts’ recommendations.
