Notes:

This table reports the results from logit regressions of dividend reputation dummies, RPT5 for two sub-periods, from 1998 to 2008 and from 2009 to 2019. The variables are defined in Table 1. t-statistics are based on standard errors adjusted for the firm-clustering effect and are in parentheses.
