- Abstract
This study investigates whether extreme tax avoidance influences firm value. We find that firm values are positively associated with tax avoidance levels when firms under-invest in tax planning. In contrast, they are negatively associated with tax avoidance levels when firms over-invest in tax planning. This finding remains robust when alternative measures of firm value and corporate tax avoidance are used or when the regression model is altered, supporting the notion that extreme tax avoidance impairs firm value.
