This study aims to analyze the influence of Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) on firm value and examine the role of audit committees and gender diversity as moderating variables in raw materials companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange. Using a quantitative approach with a sample of 58 companies selected through purposive sampling, data were analyzed using descriptive statistics and moderated regression analysis (MRA). The results show that CSR has a positive and significant effect on firm value, indicating that the higher the disclosure and implementation of CSR, the higher the market appreciation of the company. However, audit committees and gender diversity were not proven to be able to moderate the relationship between CSR and firm value. This finding implies that although CSR has been proven effective in increasing firm value through positive investor perceptions, corporate governance mechanisms represented by audit committees and gender diversity have not functioned optimally in strengthening this relationship. Therefore, companies need to consistently improve the quality of CSR implementation and evaluate the effectiveness of the role of audit committees and gender diversity policies so that they are not merely regulatory compliance but actually contribute to overseeing and directing the company's sustainability strategy.  

The assessment of a company's value is crucial for investors to identify its prospects and performance. Financial ratios such as the Current Ratio (CR) and Return on Assets (ROA) are used to analyze factors affecting the company's value. This study aims to analyze the impact of CR and ROA on company value in manufacturing companies within the Miscellaneous Industries sub-sector for the period 2015–2024. The study uses a quantitative approach with data from annual financial reports of companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange. Data analysis is conducted using panel data regression with the Random Effect Model (REM) as the best model. The dependent variable is company value, measured by Price to Book Value (PBV), while the independent variables consist of CR and ROA. The results show that CR does not have a significant effect on company value, while ROA significantly affects company value. Simultaneously, CR and ROA are proven to significantly affect company value, indicating that the combination of liquidity and profitability plays an important role in explaining PBV variations. This finding suggests that investors pay more attention to profitability than liquidity in the Miscellaneous Industries sector.

This study aims to analyze the effect of digital marketing on firm value and to examine the mediating role of profitability. The research employs a quantitative approach with an explanatory research design. The sample consists of six cosmetic companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) during the 2021–2024 period, selected using purposive sampling based on data availability. The analytical technique used is Structural Equation Modeling with the Partial Least Squares approach (SEM-PLS) using SmartPLS 4. The study utilizes secondary data obtained from the companies’ annual financial reports. The results indicate that digital marketing has a positive and significant effect on firm value. Digital marketing also shows a positive effect on profitability; however, this effect is not statistically significant. Meanwhile, profitability has a positive and significant effect on firm value. The indirect effect test yields a coefficient (O) of 0.239, a t-statistic of 1.914, and a p-value of 0.056, indicating that profitability does not mediate the relationship between digital marketing and firm value. These findings suggest that digital marketing strategies have a more dominant direct effect on enhancing firm value than an indirect effect through profitability.

The auditor's responsibilities include not only assessing the accuracy of financial statements and detecting fraud, but also evaluating the company's ability to continue its business on an ongoing basis. This responsibility arises from the expectations of shareholders and other stakeholders that auditors provide timely and relevant information about the company's future prospects to support rational and evidence-based investment decision-making. In this context, audit opinions related to business continuity are an important instrument in reducing information asymmetry between management and investors. This study aims to analyze the impact of liquidity, solvency, and audit quality on the issuance of business continuity declarations. The research sample consisted of coal mining companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange between 2014 and 2017, a period marked by fluctuations in commodity prices and global economic uncertainty. Logistic regression is used as an analysis method because dependent variables are dichotomous. The results showed that audit quality had a significant negative impact on the issuance of business continuity declarations, while liquidity and solvency did not have a significant impact on the issuance of the declarations, indicating that the factors of governance and auditor independence were more decisive than short-term financial conditions.

This study aims to analyze the effect of company size and profitability on tax avoidance in manufacturing companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) during the 2022–2024 period. The research uses secondary data obtained from published financial statements, with a sample of 333 companies selected through a purposive sampling technique. Panel data regression is employed as the main analytical method to examine the relationship between the independent variables and tax avoidance practices. The results of the analysis indicate that profitability has a positive and significant effect on tax avoidance, suggesting that more profitable companies tend to engage more actively in tax planning strategies to reduce tax burdens. In contrast, company size is found to have no significant effect on tax avoidance, indicating that large and small manufacturing firms exhibit similar tax behavior. Overall, this study provides empirical evidence regarding the determinants of corporate tax avoidance and contributes to the literature by offering insights for policymakers, regulators, and stakeholders in understanding tax avoidance behavior in the manufacturing sector.

Delays in the submission of audited financial reports (audit report lag) remain a problem for public companies in Indonesia because they can reduce the relevance of information for investors and stalk holders. This study aims to analyze the effect of profitability, solvency, liquidity, operational complexity, and company size on audit report lag in property and real estate companies listed on the Indonesia stock exchange for the period 2022-2024. The research method used is quantitative with panel data regression analysis using Random Effect Model (REM). The results show that profitability and solvency have a negative effect on audit report lag, while company size have no effect. Simultaneously, all independent variables affect audit report lag. This study emphasizes the importance of financial performance and operational complexity in determining the timeliness of audited financial reporting.

This study aims to analyze the effect of Governance, Risk, and Compliance (GRC) disclosure on market reaction and firm value in the banking sector listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange during the 2019–2023 period. The research sample was determined using purposive sampling, comprising 8 companies with observations over 5 years, resulting in a total of 40 annual reports. Data were collected through documentation of annual reports and analyzed using multiple linear regression. The results indicate that governance disclosure, risk disclosure, and compliance disclosure simultaneously have a significant positive effect on market reaction, suggesting that higher levels of GRC disclosure can enhance positive investor responses. Meanwhile, only governance disclosure and risk disclosure have a significant positive effect on firm value, whereas compliance disclosure does not show a significant impact. These findings align with positive accounting theory, which states that managers strategically use information disclosure to influence investor perceptions, increase market confidence, and drive firm value growth. This study provides important implications for company management to improve the quality of GRC disclosure as a market communication strategy and for investors in assessing the performance and growth potential of firms.

This study investigates the determinants of dividend payout policy in energy sector firms listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange during the 2020–2024 period. Dividend policy is a critical issue in emerging markets, especially in capital-intensive industries with high investment needs and earnings volatility. The research examines whether profitability and ownership structure—specifically institutional and managerial ownership—significantly influence dividend payout decisions, considering firm characteristics. The study analyzes the effect of profitability, institutional ownership, and managerial ownership on the dividend payout ratio, while controlling for firm size and leverage. A quantitative approach is used, employing pooled ordinary least squares (OLS) regression on 245 firm-year observations. Dividend payout ratio is measured as dividend per share divided by earnings per share, profitability is proxied by return on equity, and ownership variables are expressed as shareholding proportions. Descriptive analysis and classical assumption tests precede hypothesis testing. The results show that profitability positively and significantly affects dividend payout, suggesting that firms with better financial performance tend to distribute higher dividends. Firm size also positively influences dividend policy, while leverage negatively impacts it, reflecting the role of financial capacity and capital structure. However, institutional and managerial ownership do not show significant effects on dividend payout decisions. The findings indicate that dividend policy in Indonesian energy firms is primarily driven by financial performance and structural characteristics rather than ownership-based governance mechanisms. This study offers sector-specific evidence that refines agency and signaling perspectives on dividend policy in emerging markets, with practical implications for managers, investors, and regulators.

This study examines the effect of Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) ratings on firm performance and the moderating role of ESG rating disagreement within the Indonesian capital market. Using a panel dataset of 63 companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange from 2021 to 2023 and employing a fixed-effects regression model, the analysis measures firm performance with Tobin’s Q, ESG ratings from Refinitiv Eikon, and ESG rating disagreement as the standard deviation between Refinitiv and Bloomberg scores. The empirical results indicate that ESG ratings do not have a statis-tically significant effect on firm performance, and ESG rating disagreement does not significantly moderate this relationship. These findings suggest that ESG-related information has not yet been fully internalized into firm valuation in Indonesia, with current ESG practices perceived as largely symbolic rather than substantively integrated into corporate strategy. The study concludes that both ESG ratings and rating disagreement fail to serve as effective mechanisms for enhancing firm performance in the Indonesian context, reflecting the early-stage development and compliance-driven nature of ESG adoption in emerging markets.

This study aims to examine the effect of the board of directors, audit committee, and public accounting firm size on corporate financial performance. The population consists of manufacturing companies in the food and beverage sub-sector listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange and not delisted during the 2019–2023 period. The sampling technique used was purposive sampling, resulting in 33 companies selected as research samples. This research employs a quantitative approach using secondary data obtained from company financial reports published by the Indonesia Stock Exchange and official corporate websites. Data analysis was conducted using SPSS (Statistical Package for Social Science) version 25, applying multiple linear regression analysis to examine the relationships among the research variables. The results indicate that the board of directors and audit committee do not have a significant effect on financial performance. In contrast, the size of the public accounting firm has a positive effect on financial performance. These findings suggest that the quality and reputation of external auditors play an important role in enhancing corporate financial performance.  

This study investigates the influence of Return on Equity (ROE), the Audit Committee, and the Debt to Asset Ratio (DAR) on firm value in banking companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange for the 2020–2023 period. Firm value is measured using Price to Book Value (PBV). The research is driven by a decline in firm value within the banking sector, which has the potential to affect investor confidence and investment decisions. A quantitative research design is applied, utilizing secondary data derived from published annual financial statements. The research population includes all banking firms listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange, while the sample is determined through purposive sampling based on specific criteria. Hypothesis testing is conducted using multiple linear regression analysis. The empirical findings indicate that ROE has a significant partial effect on firm value, reflecting the importance of profitability in shaping market perceptions. In contrast, the Audit Committee and DAR do not show a significant individual impact on firm value. However, when examined simultaneously, ROE, the Audit Committee, and DAR collectively influence firm value.

A healthy and sustainable company is the primary measure of financial performance. Approaches such as financial ratios are not sufficient to assess financial performance; methods that provide a more comprehensive picture of a company's economic value creation are also needed. Economic Value Added (EVA) is one method that can be used in performance measurement. This study aims to determine the financial performance of PT Astra Otoparts Tbk from 2020–2023 using the Economic Value Added (EVA) method, through a quantitative descriptive approach. The annual financial reports of PT Astra Otoparts Tbk from 2020 to 2023 obtained from the official website of the Indonesia Stock Exchange and the company's official website are the data used in this study. The financial performance of PT Astra Otoparts Tbk from 2020 to 2023 is considered good based on the results of the study, because the company was able to generate a positive EVA value each year, indicating that the company has succeeded in creating economic added value for shareholders and maintaining its business continuity.

Tax Management refers to a company’s efforts to manage its tax obligations efficiently and legally in order to optimize net income. This study aims to examine the effect of Fixed Asset Intensity and Leverage on Tax Management, with Profitability as a moderating variable, in mining companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) for the 2021–2024 period. This research is conducted because tax management practices are considered to potentially influence corporate profitability and financial performance. The study is grounded in Agency Theory and employs a quantitative approach. The sample was selected using purposive sampling, resulting in 28 companies observed over four years, with a total of 112 secondary data observations obtained from annual reports or financial statements. Data analysis was performed using EViews 13 with a Moderated Regression Analysis (MRA) approach. The findings indicate that: (1) Fixed Asset Intensity has no significant effect on Tax Management; (2) Leverage has a significant negative effect on Tax Management; (3) Profitability does not moderate the relationship between Fixed Asset Intensity and Tax Management; and (4) Profitability strengthens the effect of Leverage on Tax Management.

This study analyzes the factors that influence the cost of equity capital in food and beverage manufacturing companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange during the period 2020–2023. The study focuses on information asymmetry, earnings management, voluntary disclosure, and business diversification as determinants of the cost of equity capital. This study is relevant to the dynamics of the financial market after the decline in Bank Indonesia's benchmark interest rate in the 2024–2025 period, which has the potential to change investor preferences and increase attention to the quality and transparency of company information. The study uses a quantitative approach with secondary data obtained from companies' financial statements and annual reports. The sample was determined using purposive sampling and resulted in 177 observations from 46 companies over four years of observation. The cost of equity capital was measured using the Ohlson model, while hypothesis testing was conducted using multiple linear regression analysis. The results show that earnings management and voluntary disclosure have a significant effect on the cost of equity capital. Conversely, information asymmetry and business diversification were not found to have a significant effect. These findings confirm that the quality of financial reporting and the level of information disclosure play an important role in shaping investors' risk perceptions and return expectations.

The dynamic fluctuations in stock prices present a major challenge for investors in making informed decisions. To anticipate such uncertainties, forecasting methods that can provide accurate predictions are required. This study compares two time series forecasting methods Autoregressive Integrated Moving Average (ARIMA) and Double Exponential Smoothing (Holt) in predicting the stock prices of PT Telkom Indonesia (TLKM). The dataset consists of monthly closing prices from January 2018 to December 2023. The performance of each model is evaluated using three error metrics: Mean Absolute Error (MAE), Mean Squared Error (MSE), and Root Mean Squared Error (RMSE). The results show that the ARIMA(1,1,1) model yields higher predictive accuracy than the Holt method, with MAE of 787.71, MSE of 771,844.2, and RMSE of 878.55. In contrast, the Holt method records a MAE of 837.19, MSE of 878,393.4, and RMSE of 937.23. These findings confirm that ARIMA is superior in capturing the complex patterns of stock price movements and is more effective in volatile market conditions such as the stock exchange.

This study investigates the interconnected roles of board gender diversity and Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) performance on firm performance within Indonesia's distinctive two-tier corporate governance system. Utilizing a panel dataset of 80 companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange from 2021 to 2023 and employing a fixed-effects regression model, the analysis measures gender diversity on both the Board of Commissioners (BOC) and Board of Directors (BOD) using the Blau Index, with firm performance proxied by Tobin's Q and ESG performance sourced from Refinitiv Eikon scores. The empirical results reveal that gender diversity on both the BOC and BOD does not have a statistically significant effect on firm performance, failing to support agency, upper echelons, and gender socialization theories. Furthermore, ESG performance demonstrates a significant negative direct effect aligning with the trade-off perspective that current implementation costs outweigh benefits. Crucially, the analysis finds that ESG does not moderate the board diversity-performance relationship, as both interaction terms are statistically insignificant. These findings collectively indicate that the potential governance and strategic advantages of board gender diversity are not being realized in the Indonesian context. The study concludes that this is attributable to several structural barriers, including tokenistic board appointments, the early-stage and often symbolic nature of ESG adoption focused on compliance rather than integration, and a weak institutional environment characterized by voluntary frameworks and socio-cultural constraints that limit the substantive influence of women in governance roles.

Financial statements have an important role in facilitating all forms of economic activity in the private, public, and non-profit sectors. However, in reality, many companies commit financial statement fraud, causing losses to users. With the increasing attention to financial statement fraud, board diversity has become an important aspect in improving corporate financial reporting monitoring and reducing the possibility of fraud. However, previous studies on the effect of this factor on financial statement fraud still show mixed findings, particularly in the food and beverage manufacturing sub-sector in Indonesia. This study aims to analyze the effect of board diversity on financial statement fraud in food and beverage companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange for the period 2021–2023. This study uses a quantitative approach with secondary data obtained from companies' annual reports and financial statements. Board diversity in this study includes board gender diversity, board age diversity, and board education diversity, all of which are measured using dummy variables. Financial statement fraud is measured using the Beneish m-score. Data analysis is performed using multiple linear regression with the Ordinary Least Squares approach. The results show that board age diversity has a significant negative effect on financial statement fraud. These findings indicate that board diversity is one of the factors that can reduce the likelihood of financial statement fraud.

This study examines the relationship between Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) disclosure and tax avoidance, with CEO Overconfidence considered as a moderating factor. The research focuses on non-cyclical consumer goods companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange during the 2022-2024 period. Using annual and sustainability reports, the analysis employs multiple linear regression and moderated regression analysis (MRA). Robust standard errors based on the Newey-West method are applied to ensure reliable estimation. The results indicate that CSR disclosure does not have a significant direct effect on tax avoidance. However, CEO Overconfidence significantly moderates the relationship between CSR disclosure and tax avoidance, highlighting the role of executive behavioral characteristics in corporate tax decisions. These findings suggest that CSR disclosure alone is insufficient to explain firms’ tax avoidance behavior without considering managerial traits. The study contributes to the literature by integrating behavioral perspectives into tax avoidance research and emphasizing the importance of executive oversight in aligning CSR practices with responsible tax behavior.

This study aims to analyze the reaction of the Indonesian capital market to the announcement of Donald Trump’s import tariff policy using an event study approach. Market reactions are measured through abnormal return and trading volume activity of exporting companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX), with an event window of three trading days before and three trading days after the initial tariff announcement on April 2, 2025 and the revised tariff announcement on July 15, 2025. This study employs secondary data in the form of daily stock prices and trading volumes, analyzed using descriptive statistics, normality tests, and the Wilcoxon Signed Rank Test. The results indicate that the Indonesian capital market reacts to the announcement of Donald Trump’s import tariff policy, as reflected by differences in abnormal return and trading volume activity before and after the announcements, thereby supporting signaling theory and the semi-strong form of market efficiency.

The primary focus of this research is to evaluate the influence of Good Corporate Governance (GCG), profitability levels, and entity scale on the market value of coal mining companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) between 2021 and 2023. This study adopts a quantitative design by utilizing secondary data from the official IDX website, where 8 companies were selected as samples from a total population of 34 coal sub-sector companies through purposive sampling techniques. Data processing was carried out through panel data regression analysis using Eviews 12 software. The research data indicates that, independently, the implementation of good corporate governance and the level of profit acquisition do not contribute significantly to determining the value of the entity. Conversely, company size is proven to have a significant negative impact. Simultaneous testing confirms that these three independent variables collectively have a significant effect on company value. These findings indicate the need for strategies that consider factors beyond good corporate governance and profitability in efforts to increase company value, such as operational efficiency and proper asset management.
