The purpose of this study is to examine the effect of Good Corporate Governance (GCG), financial performance, and Earning Per Share (EPS) on firm value. The object of this research consists of state-owned enterprises (SOEs) listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange during the period of 2021–2024. This study employs a quantitative approach using secondary data in the form of annual financial statements as the primary source. The sample was selected using purposive sampling based on predetermined criteria, ensuring that only companies with complete data and consistent reporting were included in the analysis. The independent variables analyzed include the audit committee, independent commissioners, institutional ownership, Return on Assets (ROA), and Earning Per Share (EPS). Multiple linear regression analysis was used to process the data in this study, allowing the researchers to examine the simultaneous and partial effects of the variables on firm value. The findings indicate that firm value is significantly influenced by financial performance, particularly ROA, highlighting the importance of operational efficiency and profitability in enhancing shareholder wealth. While certain GCG variables such as institutional ownership showed positive influence, other elements like audit committees and independent commissioners produced mixed results, suggesting that governance mechanisms may have varying effects depending on organizational context. Meanwhile, EPS demonstrated inconsistent results in relation to firm value, implying that market perceptions of earnings may not fully capture the impact on overall firm valuation. This study provides insights for policymakers, investors, and corporate managers on the relative importance of governance and financial indicators in value creation for state-owned enterprises.

This study aims to investigate the influence of audit committee characteristics—including the proportion of independent audit committee members, audit committee size, and the frequency of audit committee meetings—on the risk of financial statement fraud in companies in the real estate and infrastructure sectors listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange from 2020 to 2024. This study is grounded in agency theory and signaling theory. The sample was selected using purposive sampling, involving 62 companies or 310 observations. Data analysis was conducted using multiple linear regression via SPSS version 27. The findings of the study indicate that, collectively, the three audit committee characteristic variables, along with the control variables, have a significant impact on financial statement fraud risk. However, when examined individually, the proportion of independent audit committee members, the size of the audit committee, and the frequency of audit committee meetings do not show an influence. Meanwhile, the profitability control variable (ROA) showed an influence on financial statement fraud risk. This study concludes that the extent to which an audit committee can prevent fraud depends not only on quantitative factors such as the number of members or meeting frequency, but is also more influenced by the quality of the audit committee members’ capabilities and commitment in carrying out their oversight duties.

This study aims to examine the effect of Good Corporate Governance, Investment Opportunity Set, and Firm Size on Firm Value in banking companies listed in the LQ45 index during the 2020–2025 period. The research employed a quantitative approach using secondary data obtained from the annual reports and financial statements of selected companies. The sampling technique used purposive sampling based on predetermined criteria, resulting in banking companies that consistently met the research requirements during the observation period. Data analysis was conducted using multiple linear regression with the assistance of EViews software. The findings indicate that all independent variables simultaneously have a significant effect on Firm Value. Partially, the audit committee and Investment Opportunity Set significantly affect Firm Value, while independent commissioners and Firm Size do not show a significant effect. These results suggest that effective supervisory mechanisms and investment growth opportunities are important considerations for investors in evaluating banking companies and making investment decisions.

This study aims to analyze the effects of profitability, leverage, liquidity, firm size, and the audit committee on sustainability reporting in energy-sector companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange during the 2020–2024 period. This research is motivated by the increasing demand for corporate transparency and accountability regarding economic, environmental, and social impacts. The study uses secondary data from annual reports and sustainability reports, employing purposive sampling. The data were analyzed using multiple linear regression, corrected with the Newey-West method to account for violations of classical assumption tests. The results show that profitability, firm size, and the audit committee have positive and significant effects on sustainability reporting, while liquidity has a negative and significant effect. Meanwhile, leverage does not affect sustainability reporting. These findings support stakeholder theory, which posits that companies with strong financial performance and effective governance tend to enhance the disclosure of sustainability information. This study is expected to inform management and investors in their decision-making.

This study aims to analyze the effect of Independent Board of Commissioners, Audit Committee, Family Ownership, and Voluntary Disclosure on Debt Costs in Basic Materials manufacturing companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange for the period 2021-2023. Using purposive sampling and multiple linear regression analysis, the results show that the Independent Board of Commissioners and Family Ownership have a negative and significant effect on debt costs, while the Audit Committee, measured by meeting frequency, has a significant positive effect, and Voluntary Disclosure has no significant effect. These findings indicate that increased independent supervision and family control can reduce debt costs, but a high frequency of audit committee meetings can create a greater perception of risk in the eyes of creditors. This study has important implications for management and regulators in improving the quality of corporate governance and supervision to reduce debt costs.

This study aims to analyze the influence of Good Corporate Governance (GCG) mechanisms, proxied by the Board of Commissioners and Audit Committee, as well as Environmental Performance on Financial Performance in food and beverage manufacturing companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) for the 2020-2023 period. The research method used is quantitative, with a purposive sampling technique that resulted in 22 companies as samples, totaling 88 observations over the four-year study period. The research data is secondary data obtained through financial statements and annual reports from the official IDX website. Literature reviews indicate inconsistencies in previous studies; however, the hypothesis of this research suggests that the Board of Commissioners, Audit Committee, and Environmental Performance have a positive and significant effect on the company's financial performance. The board of commissioners and audit committee play a role in strengthening the oversight function to minimize agency costs and improve efficiency. Meanwhile, good environmental performance, measured through PROPER ratings, is expected to enhance the company's positive image in the eyes of investors and stakeholders. 

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.  

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.

Stock price crash risk has become a critical concern in investment decision making and risk management, drawing the attention of investors and regulators amid a dynamic global business environment and repeated financial crises. However, empirical evidence on this issue remains limited in developing countries, particularly in the Iraqi context. Therefore, this study examines the relationship between board characteristics—board gender diversity, board size, and board independence—and stock price crash risk, as well as the mediating role of audit committee effectiveness. The study uses secondary data from ten banks listed on the Iraq Stock Exchange (ISX) during the 2017–2023 period. The findings show that board gender diversity and board size significantly reduce stock price crash risk. Higher female representation on boards is associated with more conservative decision making and stronger monitoring, which improves financial reporting transparency. An appropriately sized board also enhances oversight and lowers the likelihood of extreme negative stock price movements. In addition, the results indicate that the frequency of audit committee meetings mediates the relationship between board independence and stock price crash risk, suggesting that board independence is more effective when supported by an active audit committee. This study recommends that investors and financial analysts consider board characteristics and audit committee effectiveness when assessing firm value and risk. Furthermore, regulators and policymakers are encouraged to promote gender diversity on corporate boards to strengthen governance quality and reduce the probability of stock price crashes.

This study aims to determine and analyze the effect of company size and Good Corporate Governance (Institutional Ownership, Independent Board of Commissioners, and Audit Committee) on Company Value in energy sector issuers listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) for the 2021–2024 period. The research method applied in this study is a quantitative approach using secondary data obtained from company annual reports. The population includes energy companies operating in the Oil, Gas, and Coal sub-sectors. The sample was determined through purposive sampling, resulting in 60 data observations consisting of 15 companies over four consecutive years. The analytical technique employed utilizes SPSS software version 55 with multiple linear regression analysis to examine the relationships among variables. The results indicate that company size significantly influences company value. Good corporate governance proxied by institutional ownership shows a negative effect on firm value, while independent commissioners and audit committees have no significant effect. Simultaneous findings confirm that company size and good corporate governance together influence firm value.

The objective of this study is to directly analyze and illustrate the compositioneof the auditecommittee, which consists of financial knowledge, independence and the quantity of members on the committee, concerning the financial statement quality of energy sector industries listed on the IDX in 2023-2024.High-quality financial statements are a crucial component reflecting the outcome of the accounting process and are vital for stakeholders in decision-making. Despite regulatory requirements for audit committees, corporate financial statements in Indonesia often contain earnings management or accounting irregularities, indicating that the audit committee's very existence is insufficient to guarantee financial statements' quality. A numerical approach with a causal-comparative approach is utilized in this investigation. The secondary quantitative data are obtained from companies’ yearly financial statements, annual reports, and corporate governance disclosures published on the official IDX website. The data are examined using EViews software for panel data regression, going through many steps, including descriptive statistics, classical assumption testing, panel data model selection, and regression analysis for hypothesis testing. The audit committee's size, objectivity, and financial acumen make up the study's independent variables. Meanwhile, financial statement quality as the dependent variable is measured through earnings quality proxy using the discretionary accruals calculation approach (Jones model or Modified Jones model). Specifically, this research seeks to deliver theoretical and practical benefits for regulators in formulating corporate governance policies, give companies a comprehension of the importance of an effective audit committee, and help investors make informed investment choices.

This study aims to analyze the effect of sustainability report disclosure, audit committee meeting frequency, liquidity, leverage, and total asset turnover on profitability in mining companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) during the 2021–2023 period. Profitability is measured using Return on Equity (ROE). This research adopts a quantitative approach using secondary data obtained from annual financial statements and sustainability reports. The sample was selected using purposive sampling, yielding 34 mining companies with 102 observations in total. Multiple linear regression analysis was employed after fulfilling classical assumption tests. The results indicate that sustainability report disclosure, audit committee meetings, liquidity, leverage, and total asset turnover simultaneously have a significant effect on profitability. However, partially, total asset turnover has a positive and significant impact on profitability. Meanwhile, sustainability report disclosure, audit committee meeting frequency, liquidity, and leverage do not significantly affect profitability. These findings suggest that asset utilization efficiency plays a crucial role in improving profitability in the mining sector. This study is expected to provide insights for companies, investors, and regulators to understand the determinants of profitability better and to support improved corporate governance and financial decision-making in mining companies.

Firm value reflects investors’ perception of a company’s success, which is generally measured through its stock price. To enhance firm value, companies are required to manage their operations with integrity, efficiency, and professionalism, while safeguarding stakeholders’ interests through the implementation of Good Corporate Governance (GCG). GCG establishes a framework governing the relationships among shareholders, management, creditors, and the government in relation to their respective rights and responsibilities. In addition to GCG, environmental performance also plays an important role in influencing firm value. Effective corporate management should therefore align with the three dimensions of the Triple Bottom Line framework: profit, people, and planet. This study aims to obtain empirical evidence on the effect of Good Corporate Governance implementation and environmental performance on firm value. The research was conducted on manufacturing companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) during the 2021–2024 period. A total of 41 companies were selected as samples using the purposive sampling method. Data were collected from the official IDX website (www.idx.id) and the respective companies’ official websites. The data were analyzed using multiple linear regression analysis. The results indicate that the independent board of commissioners, board of directors, and environmental performance have a positive and significant effect on firm value. However, the audit committee does not have a significant effect on firm value.

This study discusses the influence of six fraud hexagon models: pressure, opportunity, rationalization, capability, arrogance, and collusion on fraudulent financial reporting (FFR) practices in the Indonesia banking sector. In addition, this study analyzes the role of corporate governance mechanisms measured by the audit committee, managerial ownership, and institutional ownership as moderating variables. The sample consists of 43 banking companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) during the 2020–2023 period, with a total of 172 observations. Data analysis was conducted using WarpPLS 8.0. The results indicate that rationalization, capability, and arrogance have a significant positive effect on FFR, while pressure, opportunity, and collusion show no significant effect. The audit committee, managerial ownership, and institutional ownership also do not have a direct effect on FFR. However, these three variables act as moderators: the audit committee moderates the relationship between collusion on FFR, managerial ownership moderates the relationship between capability on FFR, while institutional ownership moderates the relationship between pressure and opportunity on FFR. This finding emphasizes the importance of effective corporate governance as an instrument to reduce the risk of FFR in the banking sector.

The study aims to investigate how corporate governance impacts sustainability report disclosure in mining companies that are listed between 2021 and 2024 on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX). The proportion of independent board members, the number of audit committee meetings held, and the level of managerial ownership are used to evaluate corporate governance. Using secondary data from the companies' official websites, a quantitative research approach is used. Purposive sampling was applied to select the sample from an initial population of 198 firms, based on two criteria: (1) being in the mining industry and listed on the IDX during the designated timeframe, and (2) regularly publishing sustainability and annual reports. By applying these criteria, a sample of 47 businesses was obtained, producing 188 observations in total.  Multiple linear regression was used to analyze the data using SPSS version 25. The results of the partial test show that while the percentage of independent board commissioners has no discernible effect on sustainability report disclosure, the frequency of audit committee meetings and managerial ownership have a significant and positive impact. These findings demonstrate how important internal ownership and an active audit function are to raising the standard of sustainability accountability and transparency.

Taxes are a primary source of government revenue and play a crucial role in economic development. However, tax avoidance practices are still widely practiced by companies, including in the mining sector, which has significant potential to generate state revenue. This study aims to examine the influence of financial distress, corporate governance (independent commissioners and audit committees), and institutional ownership on tax avoidance in mining companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange for the 2020–2023 period. The study population consisted of 83 companies, and through purposive sampling, 61 companies were selected, with a total of 244 observations. The analysis used panel data regression with the help of Eviews 25. The results indicate that financial distress and institutional ownership have a positive effect on tax avoidance, while independent commissioners and audit committees have a negative effect on tax avoidance. These findings suggest that a company's financial condition and ownership structure play a significant role in determining tax avoidance policies.

This study aims to analyze the relationship between managerial ownership, institutional ownership, audit committee, and research and development (R&D) expenses on Intellectual Capital Disclosure (ICD) in healthcare sector companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) during the 2020–2024 period. Intellectual Capital Disclosure is essential as it reflects a company’s ability to manage knowledge, innovation, and human resources that serve as its competitive advantage. This research employs a quantitative approach using the total sampling method, where all healthcare sector companies that meet the criteria are included as samples. Secondary data were obtained from annual reports and analyzed using panel data regression with the assistance of Stata 19 software. Model selection was conducted through Chow, Hausman, and Lagrange Multiplier (LM) tests, with the results indicating that the Random Effect Model (REM) was the most appropriate model to use. The results show that managerial ownership, institutional ownership, and audit committee have negative and insignificant relationships with Intellectual Capital Disclosure. In contrast, research and development activities have a positive and significant relationship with Intellectual Capital Disclosure.
