of growth opportunity) and firm performance based on capital structure ng hi theory, tradeoff theory and costly external financing theory, and other studies ep relative to this topic The author uses cross-sectional data 2009 and 2010 of 70 w listed companies in Vietnam to investigate the effect of market to book on n lo firm‟s performance As the results of this study, price to book value is the ad y th important determinant of firm performance This finding supports the argument ju of Xu et al (2005), Fairfield (1994), Block (1995), Frank et al (2005) and Myers yi pl et al (1984) Firm leverage has significant and negative impact on firm‟s ua al performance, which is consistent with the results of Modigliani and Miller n (1958), Robichek and Myers (1966), Jensen and Meckling (1976), Frank et al va n (2005) Firm size has negative and significant correlation with firm‟s fu ll performance, which contrasts with Titan & Zeitun (2007) Beta has negative m oi influence to market to book ratio This finding is consistent with Damodaran nh at (2002), Myers and Majluf (1984), Baker and Wurgler (2002), Harris and z Marston (1994) Firm performance in 2009 has positive influence to growth z

between capital structure and firm performance It suggests that w n in the determined target ratio, firm„s performance has positive correlation with lo ad debt financing ratio and reduce agency cost In contrast, when the debt ratio ju y th exceeds a certain level, firm‟s performance has negative correlation with yi leverage ratio due to that fact that benefits from the increase in borrowing less pl than the increase in agency cost Tran (2008) tested the relationship between al n ua capital structure and firm performance by using data sample of 50 non-financial n va companies in Ho Chi Minh Stock Exchange The results show that firm ll fu performance has negative correlation with capital structure when debt to equity oi m ratio is more than 1.812; firm performance has positive correlation with capital nh structure when debt to equity ratio is less than 1.812 As stated that the MM at theory1 is an important part in firm‟s financing policy In addition, tradeoff z z theory2 and costly external financing theory3 focus on a relation that price to vb k book on firm performance is the focus of this thesis jm ht book ratio plays in making financing decisions Therefore, the effect of price to l.c gm Damodaran (2002) provides evidence that the most important determinant om of price to book value is return on equity, and investors should focus on the an Lu mismatch between return on equity and price to book Block (1995) argues that ey return on equity (ROE) t re opportunity has strong relation to firm‟s performance, which is measured by n value ratio (a proxy of profitability) Xu et al (2005) argue that growth va there is a good linear between price to book value ratio and earning to book Market to Book and Firm Performance There is a lack of empirical evidence on a relationship between market t to price to book value ratio and firm performance for Vietnam Accordingly, the ng first objective of this study is to examine possible correlation between firm‟s hi ep performance and market to book value Tran (2008) finds an insignificant correlation between growth opportunity and firm‟s performance for 50 non- w n financial companies in Ho Chi Minh Stock Exchange in September 2008 Thus, lo ad the second objective of this study is to examine the effect of growth y th opportunity, which is measured by market to book ratio, on firm‟s performance ju yi pl n ua al 1.2 RATIONALE va This study contributes to literature in two directions: (1) by using n ll fu ordinary least square regression model and quantile analysis to investigate the oi m relationship between firm‟s performance and market to book; (2) by using at nh different measure of firm‟s performance such as earning to book to investigate z the impact of market to book on firm‟s performance to complement one more z ht vb measure to return on equity ROE, return on asset ROA, tobin‟s Q of previous k to book and firm performance jm studies in Vietnam This study also finds a strong relationship between market l.c gm om In practice, the mismatch between the market to book and firm an Lu performance proxied by return on equity (ROE) provides investors the market to book comparables approach

states that in imperfect markets, the value of a firm does not ng depend on operating profit, but in terms of taxes, a company tends to use debt to increase the hi ep value by taking advantage of tax shields Howerver, the fact that company can not use 100% debt because of cost of debt This kind of cost reduces corporate profits and increases w n business bankruptcy cost when debt increases Robichek and Myers (1966) argue that the lo negative effect of bankruptcy costs on debt to prevent firms from having the desire to obtain ad more debt Jensen and Meckling (1976) emphasize the importance of the agency costs of y th ju equity in corporate finance arising from the separation of ownership and control of firms yi whereby managers tend to maximize their own utility rather than the value of the firms pl al Long and Zhao (2006) apply tradeoff theory to show that for firms with low to medium n ua va market-to-book ratios, the benefits from borrowing exceeds external equity issuance, and n firms make optimal decisions by borrowing more On the other hand, firms with high market- fu ll to-book ratios have high growth opportunities and thus preserving low target ratios becomes oi nh m a major concern at Long and Zhao (2006 ) apply costly financing theory to interpret that firms with low to z medium market-to-book ratios not have much retained earnings and they
