Permutation test −1.646***(p = 0.006) −2.882***(p = 0.000) −3.215***(p = 0.000)

The empirical p values of the coefficient differences between the different groups are obtained using the permutation test with 1,000 bootstrap replications. This formula for the Lerner index is as follows: (Operating Revenue - Operating Costs - Sales Expenses - Administrative Expenses) / Operating Revenue × 100%.
