“…In terms of intellectual capital (IC), our findings support Hafizah, Mahazril, Hussin, and Siti (2016); Hashim et al (2015); Barkat and Beh (2018) and Scafarto et al (2016), who found that IC is important in ensuring good cooperative performance. Nevertheless, our study presents a unique finding in the palm oil smallholders' cooperatives context.…”

“…Furthermore, outsourcing to external parties leads to a situation wherein the cooperatives have no control over the people involved in the task execution. Based on a relevant study by Barkat and Beh (2018), the significant relationships between intangible capital (HC, SC and RC) and organizational performance occur indirectly through the mediation of knowledge process capability. HC, SC and RC can influence organizational performance only if the knowledge process capacity is available throughout the entire organization.…”

“…The intangible assets represent all resources used in the creation of enterprise value, which are not disclosed in a traditional balance sheet. Intangible assets can be used to create sustainable advantages for the company owners (Ahmed et al, 2020;Barkat & Beh, 2018;Kamal, Mat, Rahim, Husin, & Ismail, 2012;Sardo & Serrasqueiro, 2017). The benefits of intangible assets, however, are not restricted to investor-owned entities.…”

“…Intellectual capital (IC) is among the intangible assets explored by contemporary strategic management scholars and practitioners, respectively. Many studies have highlighted the relationship between IC and firm performance (Ahmed et al, 2020;Barkat & Beh, 2018;Hashim, Osman, & Alhabshi, 2015;Kamal et al, 2012;Kamukama et al, 2011;Maditinos et al, 2010;Rajaratnam, Noordin, Said, Juhan, & Mohd Hanif, 2009;Sharabati, Jawad, & Bontis, 2010;Wang & Cao, 2015). The IC concept can be decomposed into structural capital (SC), human capital (HC) and relational capital (RC), which are all used to create value and superior cooperative performance (Kamal et al, 2012;Scafarto, Ricci, & Scafarto, 2016;Wang & Cao, 2015).…”

The purpose of this study is to investigate the relationship between intellectual capital (IC), which is represented by structural capital (SC), relational capital [RC], and human capital (HC), and member participation (MP) and performance within the context of agricultural cooperatives. This study employs a survey technique involving 104 palm oil smallholders’ cooperatives in Peninsular Malaysia, and the data are analyzed through the partial least squares (PLS) technique. The results indicate that MP and RC have a significant direct relationship with cooperatives’ financial performance. Simultaneously, MP also has a direct and significant relationship with the cooperatives’ non-financial performance. This proves that MP is the most important intangible resource that determines the cooperatives’ financial and non-financial performance. Members’ cooperation contributes through active involvement and sharing of constructive ideas, while RC contributes to the competitive advantages in cooperatives' business dealings. Meanwhile, SC and HC have non-significant relationships with cooperative performance. The findings confirm the postulation of the RBV that internal resources are useful to gain superior performance in the marketplace. Therefore, management of agricultural cooperatives must maintain good relationships with their members and relevant constituencies to ensure sustainable performance.

“…VA has also been discussed in the main test. In terms of RCE, Barkat and Beh (2018) found that HC, RC and INC, as three dimensions of IC, have a direct effect on organizational performance in large textile companies in Pakistan. Similarly, Xu and Wang (2018) found that RC is the most significant factor for sustainable growth and financial performance.…”

PurposeThis study aims to examine the impact of intellectual capital (IC) and its three components (human, structural and relational capital) on corporation performance in the Chinese transportation industry. In addition, this study also investigates auditor characteristics (both Big-N and non-Big-N auditors) as a moderating role to examine the relationship between IC and corporate performance.Design/methodology/approachThe data include 398 firm-year observations of transportation companies listed on the Shanghai and Shenzhen Stock Exchange from 2011 to 2020. Value-added intellectual coefficient (VAIC) model and its modified version (MVAIC) are applied to measure IC efficiency. Finally, the fixed effects regression analysis is used to mitigate the endogeneity issue. To investigate the moderating effect of auditor characteristics, the authors divide the samples based on the clients audited by Big-4 and non-Big-4 firms.FindingsThis study reveals that IC can enhance firm performance in China’s transportation sector. Overall, findings indicate that on the whole, IC has a positive and significant impact on corporation profitability and productivity. Human capital and physical and financial assets (capital employed) play highly important roles, but structural capital has no significant impact. The authors also found that auditor characteristics play an important moderating role in the connection between IC and corporate performance. For example, the positive association between IC and corporate performance is more pronounced when Big-4 auditors audit client firms. At the same time, the authors found a negative relationship between IC and firm performance when non-Big-4 auditors audit client firms.Practical implicationsManagers must understand that several components of IC have a total effect on corporate financial performance. Therefore, managers can dedicate more resources to such components based on the performance outcomes to emphasize their business strategies.Originality/valueThis study is the first empirical analysis of the impact of IC and its components on corporation performance in the transportation sector in China, an emerging market. Previous studies mainly focus on developed countries’ high technology and financial industries sectors but the impact of IC in transportation industry largely remains unknown. Thus, the present findings contribute to IC literature by revealing several underlying mechanisms by which the components of IC help achieve good firm performance.
