Online resources: Summary: The authors assess which brand asset metrics provide incremental information content to accounting performance measures in explaining stock return. The analysis focuses on the five pillars (i.e., central brand attributes) that form the basis for the newly updated Young & Rubicam Brand Asset Valuator model: differentiation, relevance, esteem, knowledge, and energy. Analysis shows that perceived brand relevance and energy provide incremental information to accounting measures in explaining stock returns. However, esteem and knowledge do not; that is, their effects are reflected in current-term accounting measures and in brand relevance and energy. The financial markets do not view brand differentiation as having incremental information content, but they should. Changes in differentiation are indicative of future-term accounting performance, which in turn affects stock return. These conclusions are invariant to the use of alternative accounting performance measures, risk adjustments, and the inclusion of additional brand attributes into the analysis.
