Abstract

The purpose of this study is to examine the restructuring strategies that are selected according to the corporate life cycle and to provide evidence that restructuring strategies that are chosen when firms face financial difficulties can have a positive impact on corporate restructuring. This study is logistic regression analysis of 3,593 samples of companies listed on Korea Exchange from 2001 to 2016. The results of this study show that a company that is growing through the expansion of its size and investment can overcome the financial difficulties of the company. And this study finds evidence that the declining firms use the capital increase or debt issuance to revive the corporate regeneration. The results of this study suggest that it is important to consider the life cycle at the time of corporate restructuring and select the appropriate strategy accordingly.

본 연구는 기업이 개별 기업수명주기에 따라 선택하는 구조조정 전략이 재무적 곤경에 직면할 경우에 기업회생에 긍정적인 영향을 줄 수 있다는 증거를 제시하는 것을 목적으로 한다. 본 연구는 2001년부터 2016년까지 한국거래소에 상장되어 있는 기업의 3,593개 표본을 대상으로 로짓회귀분석을 실시하였다. 기업수명주기별로 구조조정 전략의 선택에 차이가 있다는 실증분석결과, 기업 수명주기에서 성장기에 속한 재무적 곤경 기업은 사업 및 자산구조조정을 이용하여 기업을 회생시키고, 쇠퇴기에 속한 재무적 곤경 기업은 재무적구조조정을 이용하여 기업을 회생시키는 것으로 확인되었다. 국내 기업들의 구조조정이 증가하는 상황에서 본 연구의 결과는 기업의 수명주기에 따라 적합한 구조조정의 전략을 선택하는 것이 중요함을 시사한다.
