[Research Contribution] Earnings Management Affects Stock Prices of Listed Enterprises Through Financial Statement Disclosure Violations: An Empirical Study of the Ho Chi Minh City Stock Market During the Covid-19 Pandemic

25 Oct 2025

In the context of Vietnam’s stock market growing steadily in both market capitalization and the number of listed enterprises, transparency and the quality of disclosed information have become paramount concerns. In particular, following the Covid-19 pandemic – a period during which the economy fell into recession and market sentiment became highly sensitive – numerous enterprises such as FLC, ITA, and SJF were delisted due to information disclosure violations and stock price manipulation. Against this backdrop, the research team led by Assoc. Prof. Dr. Ha Xuan Thach (University of Economics Ho Chi Minh City – UEH) and Dr. Tran Thi Thanh Quy (Ho Chi Minh City University of Industry and Trade) conducted a large-scale empirical study covering 160 production and trading enterprises listed on the Ho Chi Minh City Stock Exchange during the 2019–2021 period. This is also the first empirical study in Vietnam to systematically investigate this relationship during a period in which the market was profoundly affected by the Covid-19 pandemic.
