Table 7 and 8 present portfolios of a subsample of low BM formed based on
VSCORE and GSCORE, respectively. Panel A (Panel B) of each table shows the one-year
(two-year) investment horizon. Similar to results for all sample firms and a subsample of
high BM firms discussed earlier, our results for a subsample of low BM firms reveal that
higher score firms earn greater future abnormal returns than do lower score firms.
Specifically, the mean (median) of one-year MAR for the high and low VSCORE group is
5.38% (0.92%) and -11.43% (-22.72%), respectively. As a result, a mean (median) return
13
difference (High – Low) is 16.81% (23.64%), respectively. Consistently, for two-year MAR,
the mean (median) for the high and low VSCORE group is 8.82% (2.89%) and -7.90%
(-20.50%). As a result, a mean (median) return difference (High – Low) is 16.72% (23.40%).
For GSCORE, the mean (median) of one-year MAR for the high and low group is
7.62% (1.71%) and -8.94% (-12.02%), respectively, resulting in a significant return
difference (High – Low) of 16.57% (13.73%) and the mean (median) of two-year MAR for
the high and low group is 14.31% (4.48%) and 6.29% (-25.69%), resulting a significant
return difference (High – Low) of 8.01% (30.17%). Results for GSCORE are consistent with
Mohanram (2005).
Consistent with results for all sample firms and a subsample of high BM firms, our
results for low BM firms suggest that both VSCORE and GSCORE can also be used to
predict subsequent stock returns and a zero-investment portfolio of longing high score stocks
and shorting low score stocks earn significant positive future returns. However, it is worth
noting that the significant positive return for the zero-investment portfolio mainly results
from a short low score firms since these firms earn negative future abnormal returns.
