Que fatores explicam a performance das empresas metalúrgicas em Portugal? Nova evidência usando dados em painel

Abstract

O setor metalúrgico nos últimos anos registou um incrível percurso de crescimento, assumindo um papel fundamental no desenvolvimento da economia nacional. Neste contexto, o objetivo desta investigação, é estudar os determinantes específicos das empresas do setor metalúrgico, na região norte de Portugal, que afetam, distintas medidas de desempenho empresarial tais como, a Rendibilidade Operacional do Ativo (ROA – Return On Assets), a Rendibilidade do Capital Próprio (ROE – Return On Equity) e a margem sobre os lucros operacionais (MGEBITDA – Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation & Amortization Margin). Para alcançar o objetivo proposto, foram usadas duas amostras, uma composta por 325 empresas de fabricação de produtos metálicos, exceto máquinas e equipamentos (CAE Rev.3 25) e outra composta por 27 empresas de fabricação de máquinas e de equipamentos (CAE Rev.3 28). Os modelos foram estimados com recurso à metodologia de dados em painel para o período compreendido entre 2011 e 2019. Especificamente foi utilizado o método de estimação de Generalized Method of Moments (GMM) proposto por Arellano e Bover (1995) e Blundell e Bond (1998). Os resultados mostram que as principais decisões sobre a performance das empresas metalúrgicas no norte de Portugal, dependem das dimensões, Vendas no Mercado Interno (VMI), Vendas no Mercado Comunitário (VMC) e Vendas no Mercado Externo (VME) e ainda salientam que o sinal e significância das variáveis independentes, depende da forma como os diferentes stakholders entendem a performance. Mais ainda, numa era de alteração de paradigma acerca do que devem ser os objetivos empresariais, os stakeholders ainda não têm consciência ambiental e a dimensão social é apenas considerada pelos acionistas, mas ainda não pelo gestor e público em geral.

The metallurgical sector in recent years has recorded an incredible growth path, assuming a key role in the development of the national economy. In this context, the aim of this research, is to study the specific determinants of the metallurgical sector companies, in the northern region of Portugal, that affect, distinct business performance measures such as, the Operational Return On Assets (ROA - Return On Assets), the Return On Equity (ROE - Return On Equity) and the margin on operating profits (MGEBITDA - Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation & Amortization Margin). To reach the proposed objective, two samples were used, one composed of 325 companies manufacturing metal products except machinery and equipment (CAE Rev.3 25) and another composed of 27 companies manufacturing machinery and equipment (CAE Rev.3 28). The models were estimated using panel data methodology for the period between 2011 and 2019. Specifically, the Generalized Method of Moments (GMM) estimation method proposed by Arellano and Bover (1995) and Blundell and Bond (1998) was used. The results show that the main performance decisions of metallurgical companies in the north of Portugal depend on the dimensions, Domestic Market Sales (VMI), Community Market Sales (VMC) and External Market Sales (VME) and also point out that the sign and significance of the independent variables depends on how the different stakeholders perceive performance. Moreover, in an era of paradigm change about what business objectives should be, stakeholders are still not environmentally aware and the social dimension is only considered by shareholders, but not yet by the manager and the general public.
