| This paper examines the impact of advertising spending on financial performances. It is often difficult to justify the ROI of advertising because the gain is often intangible. We utilize signaling theory to predict that competitive advertising spending should positively influence brand perceptions and nudge consumers to choose the brand over competitors that spend less on advertising. We implemented the system GMM on panel data to examine how competitive ad spending contributes to market share while controlling for persistence. The findings indicate that not the advertising spending but the competitive advertising spending share in the market significantly predict market dominance.
