Managers can influence several items which directly effect stock price. The number of shares which the company decides to float will effect the price of the common stock. In addition, since valuation is determined by the present value of future cash flows, managers may influence the magnitude and timing of those cash flows. Any decision which increases the magnitude of those future cash flows would likely increase the common stock price. Similarly, decisions which delay costs and/or move forward expected cash flows would also likely have a positive effect on the valuation of common equity.
