Abstract
Exchange rate shocks in Iran's economy are one of the most important factors that affect the sales, profitability and efficiency of companies. Due to the importance of this issue, in this study, the exchange rate pass on the sales performance, profitability and efficiency of companies listed in the Iran Stock Exchange with emphasizing the asymmetric effects of negative and positive rate shocks, using the information of 262 companies during the period of 2007- 2021 were analyzed using GMM method. EGARCH was also used to define negative and positive rate shocks during the period of 1978-2021. EGARCH results showed that positive and negative shocks do not have the same contribution in the formation of currency fluctuations. The results of GMM showed that the negative and positive exchange rate shocks pass-through on stock returns is asymmetric and incomplete. However, negative and positive exchange rate shocks pass-through on sales performance, return on assets and profitability ratio is asymmetric but intense. So that with the increase of negative and positive exchange rate shocks by 1%, the stock returns decrease by 0.3441 and 0.2121%, respectively. The sales performance of the company increased by 67.4565 and 8.8757 percent, respectively. The return on the company's assets increased by 180.1215 and 10.1386 percent, respectively. The operating profit ratio of the company decreased by 25.1552% respectively and increases by 13.6004 percent.
