Resumo: This article analyzes whether the type of news and the earnings persistence influence the amount of information that is voluntarily disclosed by the companies. As a proxy for voluntary disclosure we use the information content of the conference calls of the companies listed on the BM&F Bovespa from 2008 to 2015. The results indicate that the companies with bad news provide more information during the conference call (presentation section and questions & answers section) than the companies with good news. Moreover, were found evidence that the companies with less persistent positive earnings provide a larger amount of information than the companies with more persistent positive earnings. Regarding companies with negative earnings we did not find any relation between persistence and the informational content.

Como proxy para divulgações voluntárias foi utilizado o conteúdo informacional das conference calls das empresas listadas na BM&F Bovespa entre os anos de 2008 a 2015. Os resultados indicam que empresas com más notícias entregam mais informações durante a conference call (seção de apresentação e seção de perguntas e respostas) do que empresas com boas notícias. Adicionalmente, foram encontradas evidências de que as empresas com resultados positivos e transitórios entregam um volume maior de informação do que as empresas com resultados positivos e permanentes. No que tange a empresas com resultados negativos não foi possível ser identificado relação entre a persistência e o conteúdo informacional divulgado.FUCAPE Business Shool2016-11-01info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionPeer-reviewed ArticleArtigo revisado pelos paresapplication/pdfapplication/pdfhttp://www.bbronline.com.br/index.php/bbr/article/view/9910.15728/bbr.2016.13.6.6Brazilian Business Review; Vol. 13 No. 6 (2016): November to December 2016; 291-315Brazilian Business Review; v. 13 n. 6 (2016): Novembro a Dezembro de 2016; 291-3151808-23861807-734Xreponame:BBR.
