Abstract
This paper examines the stock market reaction to the announcements of rights offerings of listed companies in China. The evidence suggests that the market reacts negatively around the announcement, but positively during the post-announcement period. Moreover, investors respond positively to the increase in debt and ROE after rights offerings. Surprisingly, a higher legal person subscription ratio of right offering did not improve the firm's performance in the long run.
