We examine the effect of the oil and gas firms' use of derivatives for hedging risks on the marginal value of cash holdings. Analyzing 155 U.S. oil and gas producers from 1998 to 2017, we find that the use of derivatives for hedging risks, especially oil and gas‐related risk, reduces the marginal value of corporate cash holdings. Furthermore, the effect of using derivatives is stronger for firms exposed to higher risk. Our findings imply that cash holdings and derivatives use act as substitutes in hedging risk in this industry.

衍生工具的使用和现金持有的价值:来自美国石油和天然气行业的证据

我们研究了石油和天然气公司使用衍生工具对冲风险对现金持有的边际价值的影响。分析1998年至2017年期间的155家美国石油和天然气生产商,我们发现使用衍生工具来对冲风险(尤其是与石油和天然气相关的风险)会降低公司现金持有量的边际价值。此外,对于面临较高风险的公司而言,使用衍生工具的效果更强。我们的发现表明,现金持有量和衍生工具的使用可以替代该行业的对冲风险。
