What do you think the pros and cons of the different types of financing are? How do they choose the appropriate financing during the different development periods of a company?Slide5
Pecking
Order Theory
Pecking order theory starts with asymmetric information as managers know more about their companies prospects, risks and value than outside investors.Companies prioritize their sources of financingFirst preferring internal financingThen debt
Lastly raising equity as a “last resort”Asymmetric information favours the issue of debt over equity as the issue of debt signals the boards confidence that an investment is profitable and that the current stock price is undervalued (were stock price over-valued, the issue of equity would be favoured). The issue of equity would signal a lack of confidence in the board and that they feel the share price is over-valued. An issue of equity would therefore lead to a drop in share price. Slide6

Case study: Beijing Origin Water
In their own words
:When we are running a company, we need to evaluate the company’s operation from the point of view of investors. If you do so, you will make the right decisions, particularly investment and financial
decisionsWe consider accepting or refusing a project in light of the company’s interest. If it is appropriate and can bring great interest to the company, we will say yes to it. If it is risky and the benefit is insignificant, we have to say no At least in China, we think a company should tap new sources and reduce expenditure in its operation. For a newly founded company, the former is more important, which means more budget should be placed on market development. You need to have income. However, long established enterprises may have different arrangements. Besides market development, there are budgets for innovation and other things. They may also consider other ways to reduce
expenditureSlide8
