摘 要：This paper examines the influence of forward-looking information disclosure on corporate future stock price crash risk. Under the registration system, we focus on the textual information of the comment letters and construct forward-looking information content indicators by machine learning methods. Using a sample of the IPO firms in the STAR and ChiNext, we provide empirical evidence that the forward-looking information disclosure of comment letters contributes to the reduction of firms’ stock price crash risk under the registration system. The findings withstand controls for a large array of variables, firm-fixed effect estimations; they are also robust to a range of tests conducted to buttress against endogeneity concerns. Further analysis finds that forward-looking information disclosure has a more significant effect on stock price crash risk reduction among non-state IPO firms that allow equity pledging and short selling. The study conducts analyses demonstrating that a rich level of forward-looking disclosure can significantly reduce the IPO underpricing and the amount of future negative news. Overall, the empirical results of this paper show that forward-looking information disclosure in IPO comment letters has a very significant information effect, which can alleviate information asymmetry and help promote the stable and healthy development of the capital market.
