In contrast, only 35 percent of the J066 companies did not report losses reduced or omitted dividends. The results found that changes of earnings is significantly associated with dividend changesfor all sample companies. However, the research found
that the level of cash flows is not significant in explaining the dividend changes in Malaysia, Singapore, Indonesia, Thailand and the Philippines. On the other hand, the cashflows arefound to be significant in explaining the dividend change in all current operaling earnings and cash flows are found to have information content in predicting future earnings for all the sample companies.
