More interestingly, the likelihood ratio statistic of 6.73 (β3 = β3*) rejects the null hypothesis that the persistence of net operating assets is correctly priced. Specifically, the valuation parameter of net operating assets (β3* = 0.0058) is significantly greater than its forecasting parameter (β3 =–0.0260), suggesting that Thai stock market overprices the net operating assets relative to its ability to forecast one-year-ahead earnings.
