What is it about?
This article aims to find out if pre-exit financial (FP) and internationalization (IP) performance indicators can be used for predicting full de-internationalization (ceasing all export activities; CE). The results show that before CE, exporters are constantly liquidity- and solvency-constrained, while the problems with revenue creation and profitability are much shorter-lived. IP is in a gradual decline, while the bulk of this decline is concentrated shortly before the exit. Overall, IP variables are more beneficial for predicting CE.
