This study analyzes the implementation of ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) reporting on the firm value of PT Indofood Sukses Makmur Tbk during the 2020-2024 period. The main issues examined are how ESG reporting is implemented and the extent of its influence on firm value, as well as which ESG component has the most significant impact. The research method employs a quantitative approach with a causal comparative design, utilizing secondary data sourced from annual reports, sustainability reports, and market data over five years. Firm value is proxied using Tobin's Q ratio, while the level of ESG disclosure is measured based on the GRI Standards framework. Data analysis techniques use multiple linear regression by incorporating control variables including firm size, profitability (ROA), and leverage to enhance result validity. The research findings indicate that ESG reporting has a positive and significant effect on firm value with a coefficient of β = 0.018 and p < 0.001, with a model predictive capability (R²) of 87.3%. Indofood's ESG Score experienced substantial improvement from 56.3% in 2020 to 78.9% in 2024, accompanied by an increase in Tobin's Q from 0.982 to 1.523. Component-wise analysis reveals that the Social aspect provides the highest impact (β = 0.009), followed by Governance (β = 0.007) and Environmental (β = 0.006). These findings provide empirical support for stakeholder theory and resource-based view in the Indonesian emerging market context.

This research aims to analyze the effect of leverage, liquidity, and sales growth on profitability in food and beverage companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) during the 2021–2024 period. The study used a purposive sampling method with 69 companies and 276 observation data. The data were analyzed using multiple linear regression through SPSS version 26 after classical assumption tests. The results show that leverage (Debt to Equity Ratio) has a negative effect on profitability, while leverage (Debt to Asset Ratio) has no effect. Liquidity measured by the Current Ratio has a positive effect, while the Quick Ratio has no effect on profitability. Sales growth positively affects profitability. Simultaneously, leverage, liquidity, and sales growth significantly influence profitability (Return on Assets) in food and beverage companies. These findings imply that companies should maintain an optimal capital structure and liquidity level to sustain profitability amid competition in the food and beverage sector.

One of the business strategies used by companies to strengthen their business and reduce competition is through acquisitions. This study was conducted to determine changes in financial performance after the acquisition process, measured using liquidity, activity, solvency, and profitability ratios. The population of this study was companies that made acquisitions in 2022. The sampling technique used purposive sampling, and four companies that conducted acquisitions in 2022 and were listed on the IDX were obtained. The research period was two years before and two years after the acquisition. The hypothesis was tested with a non-parametric test using the Wilcoxon signed rank test. Based on the results of the study, it is known that of the four financial ratios, only the activity ratio had a significant difference before and after the acquisition. Meanwhile, there were no significant differences in the liquidity, solvency, and profitability ratios. This is because the impact of the acquisition process cannot be seen in the short term. It takes integration and a long time to create synergy or change after an acquisition.  

This study investigates the impact of liquidity and profitability on firm value at PT Nippon Indosari Corpindo Tbk over the 2017–2024 period. Liquidity is measured using the Current Ratio, while profitability is represented by Return on Assets (ROA) and Return on Equity (ROE). Firm value is proxied by the Price to Book Value (PBV). A multiple linear regression model is employed, complemented by univariate and bivariate analyses to mitigate potential multicollinearity between ROA and ROE. The findings reveal that neither the Current Ratio nor ROA significantly affects PBV, with an R-squared value of 0.175 and an F-statistic of 0.5315 (p = 0.618). An alternative model incorporating ROE yields similar results. While the model satisfies the assumptions of residual normality (Jarque-Bera p = 0.654) and shows no indication of significant autocorrelation (Durbin-Watson = 1.458), its explanatory power remains limited. These results suggest that external factors—such as market sentiment and long-term growth expectations—may have a more substantial influence on firm value than internal financial indicators.

This study aims to analyze the influence of profitability as proxied by Return on Equity (ROE), solvency as proxied by Debt to Equity Ratio (DER), and liquidity as proxied by Current Ratio (CR) on firm value as proxied by Price to Book Value (PBV) in the Indonesian food and beverage sector. The study focuses on the 2019-2023 period, a timeframe uniquely defined by the economic disruption of the COVID-19 pandemic and its initial recovery phase. The research method employed is a quantitative approach using multiple linear regression analysis. The sample consists of 10 companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX), selected through a purposive sampling technique, resulting in 50 firm-year observations. The results indicate that both partially and simultaneously, the variables of profitability, solvency, and liquidity have a significant positive influence on firm value. This finding suggests that during a period of systemic crisis, the capital market places a valuation premium on companies that can demonstrate holistic and comprehensive signals of financial health. The novelty of this research lies in its contextualization of the dynamic role of financial ratios as crucial signals amidst an unprecedented economic shock. This study provides an empirical explanation for why investors prioritized stability and resilience, thereby reconciling conflicting findings in prior literature regarding the impact of liquidity on firm value.

This study aims to assess the financial performance of PT Mayora Indah Tbk from 2022 to 2024 using several financial ratios, including liquidity, solvency, and profitability. The method used in this study is a quantitative approach. In this study, the data analyzed is secondary data, where the population includes all financial statements of PT Mayora Indah Tbk. The sample taken for this study is the financial statements of PT Mayora Indah Tbk in 2022-2024. The results of the analysis show that the company's liquidity ratio is in good condition with Current Ratio (CR) reaching 298.3% and Quick Ratio (QR) of 216.8%, which exceeds existing industry standards. On the solvency ratio, the Debt To Asset Ratio (DAR) was recorded at 40.3%, which is significantly higher than the industry standard of 35%, indicating a situation that is not ideal. Conversely, the Debt To Equity Ratio (DER) of 67.9% shows a positive performance, which is below the industry standard of 90%. For profitability ratios, the company recorded a Net Profit Margin (NPM) of 8.4%, Return On Assets (ROA) of 10.9%, and Return On Equity (ROE) of 18.2%, all of which are below industry standards, indicating that profitability conditions are still low

This study aims to determine the effect of interest rates and inflation on the profitability of property and real estate sector companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) during the period 2020-2024. Profitability is measured using the Return on Assets (ROA) ratio, while interest rates refer to the BI-7 Day Reverse Repo Rate and inflation is calculated based on the Consumer Price Index (CPI) data from Bank Indonesia. This study uses a quantitative approach with multiple linear regression analysis methods and classical assumption tests supported by data processing using SPSS version 27 software. The sample was selected using purposive sampling techniques with criteria of companies that consistently submit annual financial reports, do not record losses during the research period, and use the Rupiah currency. The research results indicate that partially, interest rates have a positive and significant effect on profitability, while inflation does not have a significant effect on profitability. However, simultaneously, interest rates and inflation together have a significant effect on the company's profitability. These findings are expected to serve as a strategic reference for companies in formulating financial policies to maintain profitability stability amidst macroeconomic dynamics.

This research examines the effect of current ratio and company size on profit growth in food and beverage sub-sector companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange during the period 2015 to 2023. All companies in this sub-sector are the research population, with sample selection using purposive techniques based on certain criteria. A total of 72 observation data were analyzed using a quantitative approach through multiple linear regression. Data were obtained from the annual financial reports that have been officially published. The results of the analysis show that the current ratio does not have a significant effect on profit growth, indicating that the level of liquidity does not always contribute directly to profitability. On the other hand, company size has a significant effect, indicating that a larger operational scale and the availability of adequate resources have a positive impact on profit performance. These findings are expected to be a reference in making corporate financial decisions and considerations for further research in the field of corporate finance.

This study aims to analyze the effect of the Debt to Equity Ratio (DER) and Current Ratio (CR) on Return on Assets (ROA) at PT Sido Muncul Tbk for the period 2019–2023. The research employs a quantitative associative approach using secondary data obtained from the company’s annual financial reports. The analytical method applied is multiple linear regression with the assistance of SPSS version 26. Prior to hypothesis testing, the model was examined using classical assumption tests, including normality, multicollinearity, heteroscedasticity, and autocorrelation tests. The results show that DER has a positive and significant effect on ROA, indicating that a proportional increase in debt utilization can enhance company profitability. Similarly, CR has a positive and significant effect on ROA, implying that maintaining healthy liquidity strengthens asset efficiency. Simultaneously, DER and CR significantly influence ROA with a coefficient of determination (R²) of 0.887, meaning that 88.7% of profitability variation is explained by these two variables. These findings confirm that balancing capital structure and liquidity is a key determinant in improving financial performance within Indonesia’s pharmaceutical sector.

This study aims to analyze the differences in financial performance between PT Ciputra Development Tbk (CTRA) and PT Pakuwon Jati Tbk (PWON) during 2019–2023 based on liquidity, profitability, solvency, and dividend policy ratios. A quantitative approach with a descriptive-comparative method was employed. The study utilized secondary data obtained from the annual financial reports of both companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange. Financial ratios were analyzed, including the Current Ratio (CR), Return on Assets (ROA), Debt to Equity Ratio (DER), and Dividend Payout Ratio (DPR). Data normality and homogeneity tests were conducted, followed by Independent Sample t-Test and Mann–Whitney U test using SPSS version 26 to identify statistical differences. The results indicate no significant differences between CTRA and PWON in CR, ROA, and DPR, but a significant difference in DER, where CTRA shows higher leverage compared to PWON. These findings suggest that the key distinction between the two companies lies in their capital structure rather than profitability or dividend policy, reflecting different financial management strategies within Indonesia’s property sector.

Profitability is a key indicator in assessing a company’s financial performance, particularly in the personal care industry listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX). This study aims to analyze the effect of Return on Assets (ROA), Return on Equity (ROE), and Debt to Equity Ratio (DER) on profitability as measured by Net Profit Margin (NPM). The research employed a quantitative approach using multiple linear regression analysis based on the financial statements of personal care companies for the 2021–2024 period. The findings reveal that ROA has a positive and significant effect on NPM, indicating that the more efficiently a company manages its assets, the higher the net profit margin achieved. Meanwhile, ROE and DER show no significant effect on NPM, implying that shareholder equity returns and debt utilization in the capital structure have not directly enhanced net profitability. These results suggest that optimal asset management is a crucial factor in improving the financial performance of personal care companies.

This study aims to examine and analyze the effect of profitability and capital structure on corporate income tax (PPh) payable at PT Kediri Tani Sejahtera during 2018–2022. The research uses a quantitative descriptive approach with primary data obtained through interviews and documentation of the company’s financial statements, including annual income statements and balance sheets. The analysis involves calculating profitability ratios, namely Return on Assets (ROA) and Return on Equity (ROE), as well as capital structure ratios, namely Debt to Asset Ratio (DAR) and Debt to Equity Ratio (DER), and comparing them with the annual corporate income tax payable. The results indicate that net profit before tax and PPh payable were below 4.8 billion IDR annually. Trend Moment analysis shows that profitability has a significant relationship with PPh payable, while capital structure also affects PPh, though not directly. The company’s asset size impacts depreciation recognized as an expense in the income statement, influencing the tax amount due. This study confirms that managing profitability and capital structure is crucial for tax planning and compliance in manufacturing companies, particularly in the organic fertilizer industry.

This study aims to analyze the financial health of PT Garuda Indonesia (Persero) Tbk during the 2019–2023 period using eight financial ratios based on the Indonesian Ministry of State-Owned Enterprises (SOEs) Decree No. KEP-100/MBU/2002. The research employed a descriptive quantitative method with secondary data derived from annual financial reports published by the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) and the company’s official website. The findings reveal that Garuda Indonesia’s financial condition fluctuated, categorized as less healthy in 2019, deteriorated into unhealthy during 2020–2021 due to the Covid-19 pandemic, and showed limited recovery in 2022–2023, returning to the less healthy category. The main weaknesses were observed in profitability, liquidity, and solvency, while activity ratios remained relatively sound. This study highlights that Garuda’s financial problems were driven not only by external shocks from the pandemic but also by internal factors such as high debt burden and weak governance. The results are expected to contribute academically by enriching the literature on SOE financial health analysis in the post-pandemic context and provide practical implications for management, policymakers, and investors.

This research aims to examine the effect of Return on Equity (ROE), Asset Structure, and Current Ratio (CR) on Capital Structure in the company PT Mayora Indah Tbk, which is listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) for the period 2015–2023. The data used in this study are secondary data obtained from the company’s annual financial reports during the research period. The research employs a quantitative approach, and the data sources are documentary in nature, focusing on publicly available financial statements.The analytical method used is multiple linear regression analysis, with data processing performed using SPSS software. This method allows the researcher to assess the impact of each independent variable on the dependent variable both partially and simultaneously. The results of the partial hypothesis testing indicate that the Return on Equity (ROE) variable has a positive and significant effect on Capital Structure, suggesting that higher profitability encourages the company to utilize more debt financing. On the other hand, the Asset Structure variable shows no significant negative effect on Capital Structure, indicating that the proportion of fixed assets does not play a decisive role in influencing capital structure in this case. Meanwhile, the Current Ratio (CR) has a negative and significant effect, implying that companies with higher liquidity tend to rely less on external debt. Simultaneously, the three variables—ROE, Asset Structure, and CR—have a significant influence on Capital Structure. These findings can serve as a reference for corporate financial management in optimizing capital structure decisions.

This study aims to analyze the effect of dividend policy and profitability on shareholder wealth in companies listed in the High Dividend 20 Index on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) during the 2019–2023 period. The research adopts a quantitative approach using secondary data obtained from the official IDX website (www.idx.co.id ).The population includes all issuers in the High Dividend 20 Index during the research period, and purposive sampling was applied to select 12 companies as the final sample. Data analysis techniques involved classical assumption testing, multiple linear regression, and hypothesis testing to determine the influence of independent variables on shareholder wealth. The statistical analysis was performed using EViews 12 Student Version software.The findings reveal that the Dividend Payout Ratio (DPR) does not have a significant effect on shareholder wealth, implying that dividend distribution is not the main factor influencing investor value in the observed companies. In contrast, Return on Assets (ROA) demonstrates a significant positive effect, which highlights the importance of profitability in driving shareholder wealth. These results suggest that investors may place greater emphasis on a company’s ability to generate earnings rather than its dividend distribution policy when assessing firm value. The study contributes to the literature on dividend policy and corporate performance by providing evidence from the Indonesian capital market, particularly within firms that consistently distribute high dividends.

This study aims to examine the effect of Return on Assets (ROA), Debt to Assets Ratio (DAR), and Total Assets on Audit Delay in food and beverage sub-sector companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) during the 2020–2024 period. Audit Delay is defined as the time interval between the end of the fiscal year and the issuance date of audited financial statements by independent auditors. The timeliness of financial reporting is a crucial element for stakeholders in evaluating company performance, enhancing transparency, and supporting decision-making processes. Therefore, understanding the factors that influence audit delay is important in the context of both regulatory compliance and corporate governance. This research adopts a quantitative methodology using multiple linear regression analysis. The data used are secondary data obtained from annual financial reports published and accessible through the official IDX website. The study sample consists of 33 companies, resulting in 165 observations. After conducting outlier analysis, the final dataset comprised 83 observations. Data analysis was carried out using the Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS) Version 22. The results show that Return on Assets and Total Assets do not have a significant effect on Audit Delay. This indicates that profitability and company size are not the main determinants of audit timeliness in this sector. However, the Debt to Assets Ratio was found to have a relatively positive effect on Audit Delay. This finding suggests that companies with higher leverage tend to be audited more quickly, possibly because auditors and stakeholders pay greater attention to firms with higher financial risk. Thus, a company’s capital structure plays an important role in influencing the timeliness of audit completion.

This study aims to analyze the financial performance differences of Bank Syariah Indonesia before and after the merger based on three key ratios: Financing to Deposit Ratio (FDR), Operational Expenses to Operating Income (BOPO), and Return on Assets (ROA). A comparative quantitative approach was applied using financial statement data from the 2017–2024 period, analyzed with normality tests and paired sample t-tests. The normality test results indicate that all data are normally distributed. The paired sample t-test reveals no significant difference in the FDR ratio before and after the merger, while significant differences are found in BOPO and ROA. These findings indicate that the merger affected the efficiency and profitability of the bank, but not directly the effectiveness of fund distribution. The study implies that Bank Syariah Indonesia needs to strengthen operational efficiency and asset management post-merger. Future researchers are encouraged to include non-financial variables and apply qualitative approaches to gain more comprehensive insights.

Banking is a key pillar of the financial system, playing a crucial role as an intermediary between those with excess funds and those in need of financing. In the context of post-pandemic economic recovery in the 2022–2024 period, bank sustainability and resilience, particularly in terms of profit-generating ability, are crucial aspects to consider. This study was conducted to analyze the extent to which capital structure and intermediation efficiency influence the profitability of banks listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange. Capital structure in this study is proxied by the Capital Adequacy Ratio (CAR), while intermediation efficiency is measured by the Loan to Deposit Ratio (LDR). The profitability indicator used is Return on Assets (ROA), which reflects a bank's effectiveness in utilizing its assets to generate profits. This research methodology uses a quantitative approach through multiple linear regression analysis with secondary data in the form of annual financial reports from 111 banks for the 2022–2024 period. The analysis results show that simultaneously, CAR and LDR variables have a significant effect on ROA. Furthermore, both variables have been shown to contribute positively to increasing bank profitability. In other words, maintaining adequate capital and efficient credit management can strengthen overall financial performance. This finding offers strategic implications for bank management in formulating capital and liquidity management policies. Optimizing these two aspects not only impacts short-term profit achievement but also contributes to the stability and sustainability of banking profitability in the long term. Therefore, banks need to ensure a strong capital strategy coupled with efficient intermediation to be more resilient in facing future economic dynamics.

This study aims to analyze the effect of profitability, firm growth, capital structure, and firm size on firm value in the infrastructure sector listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange during the period 2020–2024. The data used in this study are secondary data obtained from company financial statements. The sampling technique employed was purposive sampling. The results show that profitability and firm size have a negative and significant effect on firm value. These findings indicate that increases in profitability and company scale do not automatically enhance market perceptions of firm value, possibly due to a misalignment between internal performance and investor expectations. Meanwhile, firm growth and capital structure do not have a significant effect on firm value. This suggests that the market does not yet regard growth or debt ratios as determining factors in evaluating companies in this sector. Furthermore, the results of this study highlight the importance of corporate management in managing internal factors that can influence market perceptions. Although profitability and company size negatively impact company value, this opens up opportunities for companies to focus more on communication strategies and information transparency with investors to mitigate investor expectations. Companies also need to revise their growth and capital structure policies to better align with market needs and the dynamics of the developing infrastructure sector. Furthermore, this study provides an important contribution to policymakers and financial practitioners in understanding the unique characteristics of the infrastructure sector in Indonesia. The insignificant influence of growth and capital structure suggests that external factors such as market conditions and regulations may be more dominant in determining company value in this sector. Therefore, further research could broaden its scope by incorporating macroeconomic variables or environmental and social aspects, which are currently of concern to investors in making investment decisions.

The Dividend Payout Ratio (DPR) changes in food and beverage companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange between 2019 and 2023, which reflect shifts in dividend policy, are what spurred this study.  Dividend policy is important since it helps to win over investors.  Nonetheless, management frequently has to decide whether to pay dividends or keep profits for investments.  Finding out how management ownership, profitability, leverage, and business size affect dividend policy in food and beverage companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange is the aim of this study. This study is classified as a quantitative causality study.  50 food and beverage firms made up the sample, which was selected using a purposive sampling technique.  The SPSS version 25 multiple linear regression software was used to examine these data.  This study demonstrates that the dividend policy of companies in the food and beverage sector listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange is influenced, in part, by management ownership, profitability, leverage, and company size.  Conversely, the dividend policy of companies in the food and beverage sector listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange is influenced by management ownership, profitability, leverage, and company size.
