Technology sector companies are known for rapid innovation but also face high uncertainty, which is likely to cause financial distress. In Indonesia, several technology firms publicly traded on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) experienced declining profitability and negative operating cash flows during the 2021–2023 period. The aim of this research is to examine the influence of profitability and operating cash flow on financial distress, with firm value as an intervening variable. The research addresses inconsistencies in financial indicators—declining profits do not always indicate financial distress, especially when firm value is not taken into account. Using secondary data from annual reports and the Investing website, this study makes use of a quantitative method involving path analysis. A purposive sampling technique resulted in 78 firm-year observations. Data analysis was carried out using SPSS software. It was found that both firm value is positively and significantly affected by profitability and operating cash flow. However, only operating cash flow and firm value have a statistically significant positive relationship with financial distress, unlike profitability. Furthermore, firm value does not mediate the relationship between profitability and financial distress but does mediate the relationship between operating cash flow and financial distress. These findings suggest that operating cash flow is a more reliable indicator than profitability in predicting financial distress and emphasize the mediating role of firm value in financial instability.

This study examines the effect of liquidity, leverage, cash flow, and managerial agency cost on financial distress among manufacturing companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange. Using multiple linear regression analysis, the results show that liquidity and cash flow have a significant negative effect on financial distress, indicating that firms with higher current ratios and stronger operating cash flows are less likely to experience financial difficulties. In contrast, leverage and managerial agency costs have a significant positive effect, suggesting that excessive debt and inefficient managerial spending increase the likelihood of financial distress. The coefficient of determination (R²) of 0.983 indicates that these four variables explain 98.3% of the variation in financial distress. The findings emphasize the importance of maintaining financial efficiency and controlling agency costs to enhance corporate financial stability.

This study systematically analyses the predictive ability financial ratios have in relation to the emergence of financial distress among non-cyclical companies on the Indonesia Stock Exchange during the period 2020-2023. Secondary data was collected from a sample of 151 secondary data companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange, spanning the years from 2020 to 2023. In order to ascertain the relationship between the independent variables (X1, X2, X3) and the dependent variable, Multiple Linear Regression models are utilised by employing the Eviews calculation application. As a model, the Springate model is employed, which is used to measure financial distress. The financial ratios selected for analysis encompass the liquidity ratio, the leverage ratio, and the profitability ratio. The findings of this study suggest that the profitability ratio exerts a substantial positive effect, or a moderate effect, on the phenomenon of financial distress. In contrast, the liquidity ratio and leverage ratio demonstrate an absence of statistically significant influence on the phenomenon of financial distress. Extensive analysis of the results indicates that financial distress, as measured by Springate, does not exert a substantial influence on the findings obtained from this study. The incorporation of diverse samples and models in subsequent studies is likely to introduce variations into the research outcomes.
