In the investment world, stock returns are the leading indicator of a company’s performance and the basis for investor decision-making in the capital market. Fluctuations in stock returns reflect market expectations of the company’s prospects. The retail sector in Indonesia is facing significant pressure from post-pandemic shifts in consumer behavior and increased competition. This study aims to analyze the effect of financial distress, company size, liquidity, operating cash flow, and accounting profit on stock returns in retail sub-sector companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) during the period 2021 to 2023. This type of research is causally associated with a quantitative approach. The data used is secondary, in the form of financial statements from retail companies. The sampling technique used was purposive, yielding a total of 39 data points from 13 retail companies. Data testing was carried out using SPSS version 24. The results showed that partially, the variables of financial distress, company size, liquidity, and accounting profit had no significant effect on stock returns. Meanwhile, operating cash flow positively impacts stock returns. These findings indicate that fundamental indicators are not always the main determinants of stock returns. Therefore, investors are advised also to consider external factors such as market sentiment, macroeconomic conditions, and government policies that may have a greater influence on stock performance in the capital market.

This study aims to analyze the management of short-term debt and its impact on cash flow smoothness in Toko Madura micro, small, and medium enterprises (MSMEs) in Surabaya City. Using a qualitative descriptive approach, the research was conducted through in-depth interviews and field observations at Toko Madura Barokah located in Pasar Wonokromo. The results show that short-term debt management is characterized by flexibility and trust-based relationships between store owners and suppliers, with payment terms ranging from 10 to 14 days. Debt management is carried out adaptively according to sales fluctuations and cash flow conditions. The average ratio of short-term debt to monthly cash flow is 17.2%, indicating that the debt level remains within a safe and manageable range. However, the financial recording system remains simple and lacks separation between personal and business finances, which may cause inaccuracies in cash control. Overall, short-term debt management contributes positively to cash flow stability through trust and payment discipline. Nevertheless, improving financial literacy and implementing a more structured accounting system are necessary to support sustainable business growth and better financial decision-making.

By using earnings management and cash flow as intervening variables, this study aims to investigate how company value is influenced by ownership structure, company characteristics, and capital structure. This research method employs a quantitative approach. The secondary data used in this study comes from the financial statements of mining sector companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange from 2019 to 2023.

This study aims to analyze the influence of leverage (DER), free cash flow (FCF), and operational efficiency using inventory turnover (ITO), and receivables turnover (RTO) on company value, with company size as a control variable, in food and beverage sector companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange for the 2018–2023 period. The method used is panel data regression with the Fixed Effect Model approach. The results of the study show that leverage has a significant negative effect, and inventory turnover has a significant positive effect on the company's value. Meanwhile, FCF and RTO had no significant effect, while company size had a negative effect. Robustness checks with PBV as proxy for alternative values showed relatively consistent results. These findings support the signal theory, that operational efficiency and a well-managed financial structure can strengthen investors' perception of a company's value.

This study aims to analyze the influence of factors such as financial distress (FD), firm size (SIZE), liquidity (CR), and operating cash flow (OCF) on stock returns in the food and beverage sub-sector industry listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) from 2019 to 2023. The issue addressed relates to the importance of analyzing internal company factors in affecting stock returns, particularly in the consumer goods industry. The data used in this study is sourced from annual financial reports published by the companies, with a sample size of 40 data points from 8 companies selected through purposive sampling. In this study, data analysis was conducted using multiple linear regression methods via the STATA application. The findings of the study indicate that both financial distress and firm size have a significant impact on stock return performance. On the other hand, the variables of liquidity and operating cash flow do not have a significant impact on the company's stock return.

This study aims to analyze the role of cash flow and financial ratios in predicting financial distress in manufacturing companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange for the period 2021–2023. The independent variables include cash flow, profitability, liquidity, leverage, and activity ratios, while financial distress serves as the dependent variable. This research employs logistic regression analysis with purposive sampling, resulting in a sample of 100 companies with a total of 300 observations. The findings reveal that liquidity and activity ratios have a significant negative effect on financial distress, while solvency has a significant positive impact. However, cash flow and profitability do not significantly influence financial distress. These findings highlight the importance of liquidity management and asset efficiency in reducing financial distress risk, while also indicating that high debt burdens increase the likelihood of financial distress. The study’s implications provide valuable insights for management and investors in making strategic financial decisions

This study analyzes the effect of sales growth and capital intensity on operating cash flow at PT Sumber Alfaria Trijaya, Tbk during the 2013–2024 period. The research problem raised is whether sales growth and capital intensity have a significant effect on the company's operating cash flow.
