In the current enterprise context, the generation of transparent and good-quality financial and non-financial information is fundamental for adequate decision-making. Considering this context, this paper aims at evaluating the relationship between an audit report and the variation of the financial information of the companies who have a participation in the stock exchanges markets of the MILA countries over the period 2012- 2018. A quantitative approach was used in this investigation, using Logit and Probit models. As results, the outlined model predicts, to a great extent, that an auditor’s unqualified opinion translates into financial information variables’ positive behavior. Also, a great correlation between the audit firm, especially if it is a Big Four, and company income was found, which translates into favorable audit reports.
