Abstract

For companies and managers, corporate value has always been the focus. However, whether the traditional research results are suitable for high-tech enterprises remains to be discussed. After all, high-tech companies have some unique features. If high-tech companies do not see this clearly and blindly adopt common practices to enhance corporate value, the results obtained may not meet their expectations. So this paper uses the balanced panel data of listed companies which were identified as high-tech enterprises in 2008 to explore the relationship among listed high-tech companies' social responsibility, free cash flow, and corporate value. The results of our research show that there is a positive correlation between the free cash flow and the corporate value of listed high-tech companies; the listed high-tech companies' commitment to social responsibility will reduce their corporate value.
