When the company believes that its stock price is low or in order to stimulate the trading volume and stock price of stocks, it can pass investors information through announcements of buying back treasury stocks. However, will the response of market investors regarding the message of announcing stocks repurchase be different due to the misprice of the enterprise value or due to repurchasing purposes? The empirical results show that the company with over-mispriced equity in a previous year has a significant negative accumulated abnormal return after the days of announcing stock repurchase.
