Note(s): This table shows the summary statistics of our dependent variable, target variables, information asymmetry variables, and control variables. The dependent variable is the stock misvaluation measure (MSVF) of Rhodes–Kropf et al. (2005), considering SOEs' and Non-SOEs’ classification in the benchmark regression. The target variables include the ESG score, environmental score (E score), social score (S score), governance score (G score), ESG disclosure score, environmental disclosure score (E disclosure), social disclosure score (S disclosure) and governance disclosure score (G disclosure). The information asymmetry variables include illiquidity (illiquidity) and the bid-ask spread (Bid_ask). The control variables include the leverage ratio (Lev), profitability (Profitability), capital expenditure (CapEx), market-to-book ratio (Market-to-Book), analyst coverage (Analyst Coverage), and the volatility of stock returns (Volatility)
