3.4.2. Independent Variables
Profitability was measured by pre-interest and pre-tax operating surplus plus
depreciation divided by total assets. Profitability was used by many researchers
(Titman and Wessels, 1988; and Fama and French, 2002; Margaritis and Psillaki,
2007).
Growth opportunities were measured by growth of assets and were defined by book
value of total assets minus book value of equity plus market value of equity divided
by the book value of total assets. Growth opportunities were presented by Myers
(1977) and were used by many researchers (e.g., Zeitun and Tian, 2007, Wei Xu,
2005, Margaritis and Psillaki, 2007).
Firm size was defined by log of sales. These measures were used by many
researchers (e.g., Mudambi and Nicosia, 1998, Lauterbach and Vaninsky, 1999,
Durand and Coeuderoy, 2001, Tzelepis and Skuras, 2004).
Asset Tangibility was defined by the ratio of fixed tangible assets to total assets.
These measures were used by many researchers (e.g., Titman and Wessels, 1988,
Rajan and Zingales, 1995, Frank and Goyal, 2003, Hall et al., 2004).

3.5.1. Dependent Variables
In order to investigate whether the market performance measures were explained
by capital structure, I used market value of equity plus book value of debt to the
book value of assets (Tobin’s Q), and price per share to the earnings per share (PE)
as proxies for firm value. These measures were used to measure firm value in many
studies (e.g., Morck, Shleifer, and Vishny, 1988, McConnel and Serveas, 1990, and
Zhou, 2001).

3.7 SUMMARY
The study was done by quantitative research method with sample size 162. The
object of the study was all companies listed on Hochiminh Stock Exchange for the
period 2008. The performance factors were measured by market value of equity
plus book value of debt to the book value of assets (Tobin’s Q) and price per share
to the earnings per share (PE). The leverage factors were measured by total debt to
total assets (TDTA), total debt to total equity (TDTE), long-term debt to total
assets (LTDTA), short-term debt to total assets (STDTA). The author also used
other variables to investigate their effect on corporate performance and corporate
capital structure: firm growth opportunities (GROWTH), firm size (SIZE) and
asset tangibility (TA).

Table 5 reported summary statistics for the variables used in the study. The total
debt to total assets (TDTA) for the sample as a whole was 43.28%, minimum was
3.09%, maximum was 86.65% and standard deviation of TDTA was 22.43%. This
ratio was lower than the average TDTA ratio of East Asia companies (54%) and
nearly equalled to the average TDTA ratio of Latin America companies (45%)
(Dilip Ratha, et al, 20032). The average TDTA ratio of Chinese companies on
Shenzhen listed market and Shanghai listed market is 49.83% (Wei Xu, et al,
2005)3 is slightly higher than Vietnamese companies in Hochiminh Stock
Exchange. If we compared to the international data in Rajan and Zingales (1995)4
The average total debt to total equity (TDTE) was about 124.64%, minimum was
3.19%, maximum was 648.98% and standard deviation of TDTE was 136.44%. If
we compared to the international data in Rajan and Zingales (1995)
,
Vietnamese companies can be regarded as relatively high in term of TDTA (i.e.,
43% versus 31% (United States); 35% (Japan); 20% (Germany); 26% (France);
28% (Italy); 21% (United Kingdom); 36% (Canada)).

The average long-term debt to total assets (LTDTA) was 10.42%, minimum was
0.00%, maximum was 69.30% and standard deviation was 15.38%. This ratio was
higher than the average LTDTA ratio of Chinese companies (6.62%) (Wei Xu, et
al, 2005)6. The average short-term debt to total assets (STDTA) was about 32.86%,
minimum was 2.81%, maximum was 85.53% and standard deviation of STDTA
was 19.65%. The average STDTA of Vietnamese companies was lower than the
average STDTA ratio of Chinese companies (43.21%) (Wei Xu, et al, 2005)7. If
we compared to the G7 countries data in Rajan and Zingales (1995), ratio of
Vietnamese companies LTDTA was relatively low8
The descriptive data of leverage indicated that Vietnamese companies in
Hochiminh Stock Exchange reply on short-term debt than long-term debt as the
main source of fund for their business operations. Since stock markets, bond
markets and Mutual Funds markets was undeveloped, commercial banking systems
play an important role in providing lending to Vietnamese firms.
(i.e., 10.42% versus 33%
(United States); 25% (Japan and France); 42% (Germany); 24% (Italy); 18%
(United Kingdom); 37.2% (Canada)). In term of STDTA (32.86%), the STDTA of
Vietnamese companies was similar to United States (33%), slightly higher than
Germany (30%), relatively higher than Canada (23%), and lower than the rest of
countries (i.e., 42% (Japan); 43% (France and Italy); 40% (United Kingdom)).
The average value of Tobin’s Q was 1.2, minimum was 0.21, maximum was 5.38
and standard deviation was 0.78. This market performance measure was lower than
the average Tobin’s Q of Jordanian companies on Amman Stock Exchange (Tian
& Zeitun, 2007)9. The average value of PE was about 24.3, minimum was -436.77,
maximum was 1128.51 and standard deviation was 112.32. Compared to Jordanian
companies of Tian & Zeitun (2007)10
, PE of Vietnamese companies was slightly
higher (i.e., 24.3 versus 21.25).

The correlation matrix for the variables in the reported in Table 6 in order to
examine the correlation between the explanatory variables for model 1. The results
show that there was a positive relationship between growth and profitability,
growth and asset tangibility, except size, which was negative, while size had a
negative relationship with profitability and asset tangibility. This implied that
companies with high growth opportunities had higher profitability ratio, but
companies with smaller size in sales had higher profitability for the period 2008. It
also implied that small firms had high growth opportunity which was consistent
with Myers (1977). This result was similar to the result of Tian & Zeitun (2007)
research.
The correlation matrix for the variables in the reported in Table 7 in order to
examine the correlation between the explanatory variables for model 2. The results
showed that there was a positive relationship between growth and TDTE, growth
and LTDTA, while TDTA and STDTA had a negative relationship with growth.
Firm size had a positive relationship with all leverage ratios. This implied that
Vietnamese companies with high growth opportunities generally use more long-
term debt and use less short-term debt for financing. It is also implied that larger
companies in sales tend to have higher leverage ratio than smaller ones.

The results of the estimation of model 1 with each of the leverage measures and for
the full sample of observations for the period 2008 were displayed in Table 8.
From Hypothesis 1, the firm profitability has a positive correlation with firm
capital structure. Four capital structure variables were used, TDTA, TDTE,
LTDTA, and STDTA. From the regression results in Table 8, the coefficient of
profitability variable was negatively and significantly related to those variables.
This result was contrary to the predictions of trade-off theory but consistent with
the pecking order theory. According to this theory, companies prioritized their
sources of financing (from internal financing to equity) according to the law of
least effort, or of least resistance, preferring to raise equity as a financing means of
last resort. Hence, internal funds were used first, and when that was depleted, debt
was issued, and when it was not sensible to issue any more debt, equity was issued.
Jensen (1986) predicted that if the market of corporate control was effective, the
relationship between profitability and leverage was positive. If it was ineffective,
however, managers of profitable firms prefer to avoid the disciplinary role of debt,
which would lead to a negative correlation between profitability and debt. Finally,
the result indicated that corporate control of Vietnamese firms was ineffective, and
the profitability was negatively correlated with leverage. If in the short run,
dividends and investments were fixed, and if debt financing was the dominant
mode of external financing, then changed in profitability would be negatively
correlated with changes in leverage. Therefore, based on the result, I rejected the
Hypothesis 1: the firm profitability has a positive correlation with firm capital
structure.
Hypothesis 2 predicts that growth opportunities decrease firm leverage. From the
regression results in Table 8, the coefficient of growth opportunities was
negatively and insignificantly related to STDTA. However, growth opportunities
was positively and significantly correlation with TDTE, while the coefficient of
growth opportunities was found to be positively related to TDTA and LTDTA, but
statistically insignificant. These findings were inconsistent with the Myers (1977)
and predicted that Vietnamese firms with expected growth opportunities would
maintain low short-term debt levels, but the growth opportunities also put pressure
on retained earnings and pushed Vietnamese firms into borrowing long-term debt.
According to the result above, I rejected the Hypothesis 2: growth opportunities
decrease firm leverage.
From Hypothesis 3, the firm size is expected to have a positive influence on a firm
capital structure. From the regression results in Table 8, Size was found to have a
positive and significant effect on the leverage measures TDTA, TDTE, STDTA,
but was not significantly related to LTDTA leverage measure. An explanation for
the positive effect of size on leverage was provided by Rajan and Zingales (1995)
that larger firms were better diversified and had a lower probability of being in
financial distress or safeguard against the expected costs of bankruptcy. Lower
expected bankruptcy costs enabled them to take on more leverage. Size might be a
Capital Structure and Firm Performance
Page 31
proxy for the (inverse) probability of default. If so, it should not be strongly
positively related with leverage in countries, where costs of financial distress were
low. The results indicated that the financial distress costs of Vietnamese companies
in HOSE were low and Vietnamese companies with higher sizes of sales would
use more debt to finance their operating. Therefore, based on the result, I accepted
the Hypothesis 3: the firm size is expected to have a positive influence on a firm
capital structure.
Hypothesis 4 predicted that asset tangibility is expected to be positively related to
corporate leverage. From the regression results in Table 8, the coefficient of assets
tangibility was negative and significantly related to STDTA. This result showed
that if firm tangible assets were large, the ratio of short-term debt to total assets
would be lower. However, the asset tangibility had positive and significant impact
on TDTA and LTDTA, but was insignificantly related to TDTE. This findings was
consistent with Rajan and Zingales (1995), Margaritis and Psillaki (2007). They
argued that if a large fraction of a firm's assets are tangible, then assets should
serve as collateral, diminishing the risk of the lender suffering the agency costs of
debt (like risk shifting). They should also retain more value in liquidation.
Therefore, the greater the proportion of tangible assets on the balance sheet (fixed
assets divided by total assets), the more willing should lenders be to supply loans,
and leverage should be higher. So, the result of regression model showed that
Vietnamese companies had high ratio of fixed assets to total assets would use more
long-term debt as a main source of financing. Therefore, based on the result, I
accepted the Hypothesis 4: asset tangibility is expected to be positively related to
corporate leverage.
To summarize, the firm profitability was a significant determinant of firm capital
structure. This finding supported the argument that firm profitability decrease firm
leverage level. Another important finding was that firm size had a positive and
significant impact on the leverage measures TDTA, TDTE, STDTA. Furthermore,
the firm asset tangibility increased the firm leverage level. The regression results
also showed that growth opportunities had significant impact only on Vietnamese
firm total debt to total equity.
