| Resumo: | Based on the signaling theory, this study aims to analyze the influence of voluntary disclosure
of the integrated report on the relationship between the cost of debt and earnings management
in the Brazilian stock market. For this, the sample is composed of non-financial companies
listed B3, considering the period from 2016 to 2019. The cost of debt was estimated by the
ratio between financial expenses and onerous liabilities, for which financial expenses were
obtained in a disaggregated way directly in the explanatory notes. The data regarding the
voluntary disclosure of the integrated report (IR) were obtained from the reference forms,
annual reports and integrated reports, available on the websites of the Securities and
Exchange Commission (CVM), B3 and the companies, following the guidelines established
by the International Integrated Reporting Council (IIRC). Information for estimating
discretionary accruals, a proxy for earnings management, was obtained from the Economática
database. Based on the results, it was found that the cost of debt is sensitive to discretionary
practices, due to the increase in information asymmetry. In turn, when disclosing voluntary
information with a structure similar to the RI, creditors positively identify the signal, reducing
interest rates. However, considering the RI according to IIRC guidelines, the relationship did
not show statistical significance, suggesting that the RI alone does not directly influence the
definition of the cost of debt. Finally, through the interaction of IR with accruals, the findings
showed that Brazilian companies that disclose IR according to the guidelines tend to have a
lower cost of debt, while discretionary behavior is minimized, suggesting that IR influences
the definition of interest rates indirectly. |
