Segment information disclosure and trade credit

Journal of Financial Research, EarlyView.
Abstract We examine the effect of mandatory segment disclosure on trade credit financing. Segment disclosure reduces the information advantage of suppliers relative to investors in evaluating firm default risk, reducing firms' reliance on trade credit. Exploiting the adoption of SFAS 131 as a shock to segment disclosure, we find that segment disclosure

The Debt‐Equity Spread

The Journal of Finance, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We propose a measure of the valuation gap between debt and equity—debt‐equity spread (DES)—based on the difference between actual and equity‐implied credit spreads. DES predicts cross‐sectional stock and bond returns in opposite directions.

A Dual Cell‐Line Molecular Platform to Assess Sub‐Threshold Biocompatibility: Application to Processed Orthodontic Clears Aligners

Orthodontics &Craniofacial Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Traditional biocompatibility assessments primarily address cytotoxicity and bulk material properties but often overlook molecular responses that occur below toxicity thresholds. Detecting these subtle effects is crucial for materials intended for prolonged contact with human tissues.

Thermal Safety Margins and Peak Leaf Temperatures Predict Vulnerability of Diverse Plant Species to an Experimental Heatwave

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Extreme heat can push plants beyond their thermal safety margin (TSM) if maximum leaf temperature (Tleaf_max) exceeds leaf critical temperature (Tcrit). The TSM is potentially useful for assessing heat vulnerability across species but needs further validation, so we exposed 50 tree/shrub species in controlled glasshouses to a 6‐day heatwave ...

Conditional Gains: When AI Investment Enhances Firm Efficiency

Scottish Journal of Political Economy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The rapid adoption of artificial intelligence (AI) has raised questions about its effect on firm performance. Using a labor‐based measure of AI investment, the baseline results show no direct association between AI investment and firm efficiency.
