In this study, we examine whether investor distraction affects earnings management. We use a firm-level measure of investor distraction that captures times when institutional investors shift their attention to unrelated parts of their portfolios. Distracted investors temporarily loosen their monitoring intensity and managers may take advantage. Our main finding is that, when shareholders are distracted, managers engage more in earnings management by both manipulating accruals and real activities. Due to the exogenous nature of the measure of investor distraction, we argue that this association is causal. We further document that the presence of other monitoring forces such as analyst coverage and leverage diminishes the effect of investor distraction on earnings management.
