Effectiveness of corporate finance valuation methods: Piotroski scorein an Ohlson model: the case of Mexico

This study applied the Piotroski score for 63 selected companies of Mexico, for the period 2005 to 2011. The Piotroski score provides an evaluation on the historical financial performance of a company, with the evaluation of nine financial analysis ratios or criteria. We decided to add this score to the Ohlson Model (which was already tested in previous studies). It was found that the Piotroski score showed statistically significant results in the levels and differences variables.
