Zusammenfassung: 
This study seeks to examine the influence of firm-specific determinants of stock prices in an emerging market with particular reference to firms listed on the Ghana Stock Exchange. The study employs a data-set from all listed firms on the Ghana Stock Exchange from 2008 to 2014. The study used panel regression analysis to analyse the data. In general, the study found that accounting information, specifically earning per share, return on equity, book value and market capitalization of the firms, is relevant in explaining stock prices after the adoption of International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) in Ghana. This study contributes to the ongoing debate on the firm-specific factors influencing share price in an emerging market with particular reference to Ghana Stock Exchange. It is recommended that the Directors of the firms listed on the Ghana Stock Exchange introduce policies which would have a positive impact on their return on equity and earnings per share to significantly influence their stock prices positively.
