I have an unbalanced data for over 2000 firms (covering the period 2003-2011) and I have a dummy variable for the firms' export status (Export=1 if firm have positive export value that year). While, a few firms observed for all 9 years (2003-2011), majority of them observed for minimum 2 years consecutively.
