The data set involves 38 firms that conducted initial public offerings in Borsa Istanbul (BIST) for the period of 2003 and 2011. Return on asset (ROA), return on equity (ROE), and operating profit margin (OPM) are used as a measure of firm performance. Median change analysis and panel data analysis have been employed as two different methods. According to the results of these analyses, there is a statistically significant relationship between the IPO and firm performance. It was found that firm performance decreased during the same and the following first year that the IPO took place, in comparison to the year preceding the IPO. <br /> </p>}, publisher={İstanbul Gelişim Üniversitesi}
