Financial performance and bankruptcy concerns of SMEs in their export decision
Popis výsledku v původním jazyce
Research background: Due to having lack of financial power and low amount of revenues, mostof SMEs’ major concerns are bankruptcy and low financial performance. Those issues are risky situations for SMEs when making for their exporting activities. Therefore, depending on theirperformance and bankruptcy risk, they might more intensively perceive export barriers and thisfact might determine their export decisions.Purpose of the article: This paper examines whether financial performance and bankruptcyconcerns of SMEs affect their perceptions of export obstacles or not.Methods: This research performs random sampling method and directs an internet-mediatedquestionnaire to the selected respondents who are the executives of 408 Czech, Slovakian andHungarian SMEs. To examine the influences of firm performance and bankruptcy on the perceptionsof export impediments by SMEs, this paper employs Ordinal Logistic Regression Test.Findings & value added: The results show that SMEs having less healthy financial conditionsless intensively perceive cultural-linguistic export barriers in comparison with SMEs havingbetter financial performance. Moreover, firm performance is not a predictor variable in the perceptionsof export costs, legislative and tax-related barriers by SMEs. On the other hand, whileSMEs having more bankruptcy concerns more intensively perceive tax-related and culturallinguisticbarriers, bankruptcy concerns of SMEs do not influence their perceptions of exportcosts and legislative differences. Although many studies have investigated the impacts of financialconditions of SMEs on their internationalization and exporting decisions, they are isolatedwith only a market or only with a financial issue. The limited extents of those studies causea partial investigation of export and financial issues of SMEs and make readers having a narrowperspective in this specific area. By focusing on various export obstacles and financial issues thatSMEs face in different markets, this research offers a detailed understanding of SMEs’ perceptionsregarding their financial conditions and export barriers, from a comprehensive perspective.In this regard, this is the research gap that this paper aims to fill.
