Prior research studies have indicated that earnings volatility is positively associated with non-GAAP earnings disclosure. In this study, we decompose earnings volatility into accruals volatility and cash flow volatility, and we utilize the general purpose behind using accounting information (i.e., to smooth earnings and signal information). We find that the association between the volatility of the earnings components and non-GAAP earnings disclosure has an asymmetric relationship. Our evidence also suggests that managers play different roles in providing non-GAAP earnings disclosure.
