The findings 'indicated that 6n'the. ion dividend taige, dividend yield was found to have negative effect on IOS, profitability and systematic risk had positive effect On the final expansion stage, three variables namely leverage, profitability, and systematic risk all had positive effect on IOS.. For mature stage, two variables, leverage and profitability w found ound to have significant effect. Whilst, for decline stage, only leverage was found to have significant effect. Overall, this study suggested that the life cycle stage affect the decisions of management in their investment strategies.
