摘要:

As innovation is the core driveroffirm competitiveness, industry growth and long-term economic development,current literature highlights the economic benefits to firms. However, the empirical results on the correlation between firms’ innovation output and economic returns remain mixed. In this study, we develop the profiting from innovation (PFI) framework and address the crucial role of financial constraints in the relationship between innovation output and financial performance. We argue that the liability of newness differentiates firms’ financial performance when engaging in innovation activities, which leads to a U-shaped relationship between innovation output and firm financial performance. We further document the negative moderating effect of the individual financial constraints and market-based financial constraints in such a nonlinear relationship. Empirical test based on the 142,972 firm-year observations of the multi-source dataset of Chinese manufacturing firms from 1999 to 2009 support our hypotheses. The additional analysis finds that non-SOEs and SMEs benefit more from the synergistic effect of the alleviation of individual financial constraints and market-based financial constraints than SOEs and large firms. Our study enriches the literature of the PFI framework and innovation economics by unboxing the black box between innovation output and economic returns in which financial constraints play an essential role. To the best of our knowledge, we are among the first to investigate the processes and mechanisms between innovation output and financial performance, generating novel insights into business practitioners and policymakers.
