Green process innovation, green product innovation, and corporate financial performance: A content analysis method

Xie, Xuemei, Huo, Jiage, Zou, Hailiang·2019·Journal of Business Research

Abstract

Abstract Green technology innovation has received continuous attention from the business sector in recent years, yet few studies have examined the internal mechanisms and contingent conditions that link green technology innovation to a firm's financial performance. Using data from 209 listed companies that belong to heavily polluting manufacturing industries, collected via the content analysis method, we find that green process innovation has a positive impact on green product innovation, and that both green process innovation and green product innovation can improve a firm's financial performance. We also find that green product innovation mediates the relationship between green process innovation and a firm's financial performance, and that a firm's green image moderates the relationship between green product innovation and financial performance. However, our study shows that the moderating effect of green subsidies on the relationship between green product innovation and a firm's financial performance is not supported. Based on these findings, we provide several recommendations for managers and government entities to effectively implement green technology innovation.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
