  • Description: Although the relationship between earnings management and firm performance has been well explored in the literature, sustainable performance has not yet been examined. Furthermore, the literature has not addressed the issue of nonlinearity between earnings management and firm performance. Therefore, this paper aims to examine the potential nonlinear relationship between earnings management and sustainable firm performance in Saudi Arabia using a sample of 70 listed firms over the 2015–2022 period. Specifically, it investigates the operational risk disclosure threshold effect in the earning management–sustainable firm performance nexus. To do so, the dynamic panel threshold regression model (DPTR) is performed. The result proves that there is a threshold effect of operational risk disclosure in the relationship between earning management and sustainable firm performance. Specifically, the threshold values of operational risk disclosure for the three models are estimated at 6 between the low- and the high-operational-risk-disclosure regimes. In the lower regime, firm performance decreases when earning management increases; however, in the higher regime, firm performance increases when earning management increases. These outcomes support the predictions of agency and positive accounting theories.
