  1. IDR column represents initial-trading-day returns, calculated as the percent difference between the offering price and first trading day closing price, adjusted to the movements in the general market index (i.e. BIST100). BHAR 1-year, and BHAR 2-years represent market adjusted buy-and-hold abnormal returns for different investment periods. Numbers in parentheses are t-statistics adjusted according to Newey and West (1987). Average BHAR for two-year investment strategy was calculated based on the availability of aftermarket return data and therefore, sample size may vary. ***, and * indicate statistical significance at 1% and 10% level, respectively. Numbers in parentheses are t-statistics from the mean-difference tests
