摘要
Capital structure represents the combination of certain types of instruments issued by a company in order to support its assets. The main aim of the paper is to check if there is support for Pecking Order theory of capital structure for Romanian companies, through the relation between debt ratio and profitability. Secondary, we need to check if this relationship is linear or non-linear. In order to test these hypotheses we have employed large database, which contains the first 2000 major and most performing Romanian companies for period 2003-2011. The results do not reject any of hypotheses. There is a non-linear and negative relation between debt ratio and profitability, which support the pecking order theory.
