The stock market is a place to buy shares for profit. In Indonesia, energy stocks are highly unpredictable because global commodity prices change constantly. This study examines what affected energy stock returns in 2024, focusing on trading volume, price swings, company profits, and cash flow. Using financial reports and statistical analysis, all these factors were tested together and individually. The results show that combined, all these factors do affect stock returns. However, when looked at one by one, only the company's net profit truly matters to investors. On the other hand, busy trading, daily price swings, and cash flow have no impact at all. In fact, all the factors studied only account for 14% of stock return movements, while the remaining 86% is driven by other outside forces. In conclusion, for those looking to invest in energy stocks, the most important thing to watch is the company's ability to generate net profit, rather than just looking at how busy daily transactions are in the market.

Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis pengaruh struktur modal terhadap nilai perusahaan, menganalisis pengaruh profitabilitas terhadap nilai perusahaan, serta menganalisis pengaruh likuiditas terhadap nilai perusahaan pada perusahaan manufaktur sektor makanan dan minuman yang terdaftar di Bursa Efek Indonesia periode 2022–2024. Jenis penelitian yang digunakan adalah penelitian kuantitatif dengan pendekatan asosiatif. Populasi penelitian mencakup seluruh iverusahaan manufaktur sektor makanan dan minuman yang terdaftar di Bursa Efek Indonesia periode 2022–2024 yang berjumlah 83 perusahaan. Sampel penelitian sebanyak 48 perusahaan yang dipilih melalui iverusa purposive sampling berdasarkan kriteria iv erusahaan yang terdaftar secara berturut-turut selama periode penelitian, mempublikasikan laporan keuangan secara lengkap, tidak mengalami kerugian selama periode penelitian, serta memiliki data yang sesuai dengan variabel penelitian. Jenis data yang digunakan adalah data sekunder yang bersumber dari laporan keuangan tahunan perusahaan yang dipublikasikan melalui situs resmi Bursa Efek Indonesia. Teknik pengumpulan data dilakukan melalui metode dokumentasi dengan mengakses dan mencatat data keuangan yang relevan. Analisis data menggunakan analisis regresi data panel dengan bantuan aplikasi Eviews melalui uji pemilihan model yang meliputi uji Chow, uji Hausman, dan uji Lagrange Multiplier untuk menentukan model yang paling sesuai. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa struktur modal yang diproksikan dengan Debt to Equity Ratio (DER) berpengaruh terhadap nilai perusahaan, yang menunjukkan bahwa komposisi penggunaan utang dan ekuitas dalam pendanaan perusahaan dapat memengaruhi persepsi investor terhadap kinerja dan prospek perusahaan. Profitabilitas yang diproksikan dengan Net Profit Margin (NPM) juga berpengaruh terhadap nilai perusahaan, yang mengindikasikan bahwa semakin tinggi kemampuan iverusahaan dalam menghasilkan laba maka semakin tinggi pula nilai perusahaan karena meningkatnya kepercayaan investor terhadap kinerja perusahaan. Sementara itu, likuiditas yang diproksikan dengan Current Ratio (CR) tidak berpengaruh signifikan terhadap nilai perusahaan, yang menunjukkan bahwa kemampuan perusahaan dalam memenuhi kewajiban jangka pendek belum tentu menjadi pertimbangan utama bagi investor dalam menilai perusahaan pada sektor makanan dan minuman.

Nilai perusahaan merupakan salah satu indikator utama yang mencerminkan tingkat keberhasilan manajemen dalam mengelola sumber daya keuangan perusahaan. Beberapa penelitian menyebutkan bahwa likuiditas, profitabilitas, dan leverage memiliki pengaruh terhadap niali perusahaan. Penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan kuantitatif dengan metode penelitian asosiatif kausal, yaitu penelitian yang bertujuan untuk mengetahui hubungan dan pengaruh antara dua variabel atau lebih.  Berdasarkan hasil penelitian dan pembahasan mengenai pengaruh likuiditas, profitabilitas, dan leverage terhadap nilai perusahaan menunjukkan Likuiditas berpengaruh positif dan signifikan terhadap nilai perusahaan. Profitabilitas berpengaruh positif dan signifikan terhadap nilai perusahaan. Leverage tidak berpengaruh signifikan terhadap nilai perusahaan. Likuiditas, profitabilitas, dan leverage secara simultan berpengaruh signifikan terhadap nilai perusahaan.

This study aims to analyze the effect of profitability, company size, and type of public accounting firm on Key Audit Matters (KAM), with audit fees as a moderating variable in manufacturing sector companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange for the 2022–2024 period. This study used a quantitative approach with a purposive sampling method. Data were obtained from audited financial statements and annual reports published on the official Indonesia Stock Exchange website. The study sample consisted of 67 companies, with a total of 201 observations. Data analysis techniques used included descriptive statistical analysis, classical assumption tests, multiple linear regression, and Moderated Regression Analysis (MRA). The results showed that profitability had a significant negative effect on KAM disclosure, while company size had a significant positive effect on KAM disclosure. The type of public accounting firm showed a significant negative effect on KAM disclosure. Furthermore, audit fees did not moderate the relationship between profitability and KAM, but they did moderate the relationship between company size and type of public accounting firm on KAM disclosure. This study demonstrates that company and auditor characteristics play a significant role in determining the disclosure of Key Audit Matters in the independent auditor's report.

This study aims to examine the effect of working capital efficiency and leverage on profitability and its implications for firm value in manufacturing companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) during the 2020–2025 period. The post-COVID-19 pandemic condition has increased operational risks for manufacturing companies due to fluctuations in interest rates, exchange rates, cash management, inventories, and receivables. Therefore, companies are required to implement more effective financial strategies to maintain competitiveness. Profitability is positioned as an intervening variable because previous studies showed inconsistent results regarding the relationship between working capital efficiency, leverage, profitability, and firm value. This research uses a quantitative approach with path analysis to examine direct and indirect relationships among variables. The population consists of all manufacturing companies listed on the IDX, while the sample includes 45 companies selected from 270 firms using purposive sampling based on specific criteria, such as consistent listing and financial performance. The results indicate that working capital efficiency has a significant positive effect on profitability, leverage has a significant negative effect on profitability, profitability significantly increases firm value, and profitability fully mediates the effect of working capital efficiency and leverage on firm value. These findings provide theoretical and practical implications for managers and investors in financial decision-making.

The consumer non-cyclical sector in Indonesia has continued to demonstrate a growing contribution to the national economy,given that this sector is directly related to the provision of goods needed by the community on a daily basis. This study aims to determine the partial effects of Sales Growth, Asset Structure, Company Size, and Profit on Capital Structure. The population determination technique used non-probability sampling, specifically purposive sampling, with a research pupulation of 129 companies in the non-cyclical consumer sector and a research sample of 74 companies in the non-cyclical consumer sector, with analysis using multiple linear regression through SPSS version 27 and Microsoft Office 2024. The results indicate that Sales Growth does not affect Capital Structure, Asset Structure has a positive and significant effect on Capital Structure, Company Size does not affect Capital Structure, and Profitability has a negative and significant effect on Capital Structure

This study examines how solvency, profitability, liquidity, and operating costs are affected by book-tax differences (BTD) among property and real estate companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange from 2022 to 2024. One key indicator of financial reporting transparency is BTD, which reflects the difference between accounting and taxable income. This is particularly relevant for the property sector, which contributes Rp185 trillion to national tax revenue. The results of the study, conducted using the Random Effects Model panel data regression method with 93 observations from 31 companies, show that solvency (DER) has a significant effect on BTD, while profitability (ROA) also has a significant effect, indicating that companies with high profits tend to engage in more aggressive tax planning practices and financial reporting strategies. On the other hand, liquidity and operating costs do not have a significant impact on corporate tax reporting behavior. 98% of the variation in BTD can be explained by the model.

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 relationship between salaries, allowances, and employee productivity on company profitability. Human resources are an important factor in determining organizational success because employee quality and performance directly influence the achievement of company goals. Providing appropriate compensation, including salaries and allowances, can increase employee motivation, job satisfaction, and loyalty, thereby encouraging higher work productivity. High productivity reflects the company’s ability to utilize resources effectively and efficiently in order to produce optimal output. In addition, employee turnover is an important aspect that must be considered because it may affect operational stability and the company’s effectiveness in achieving business targets. Profitability is used as the main indicator to assess the company’s ability to generate profits from its operational activities. This study applies a quantitative method with an approach that examines the relationships among variables to obtain an overview of the influence of compensation and productivity on company profitability. The results of this study are expected to provide insights and recommendations for companies in managing human resources more effectively in order to improve financial performance sustainably.

This study was conducted to determine the effect of profitability and cost of debt on tax avoidance in wholesale trading companies from 2018 to 2021. The population in this study was 53 companies spanning a four-year period. The sample size used in this study was 49 from a population of 212. The sampling technique used was non-random sampling, with criteria being determined for sample selection. Testing was conducted using descriptive statistics, classical assumption tests, outlier tests, and multiple linear regression. The results showed that profitability and cost of debt had a significant positive effect on tax avoidance, accounting for 19.3% of the total, with the remainder coming from other variables. Partially, profitability had a significant negative effect on tax avoidance, meaning that an increase in profitability would decrease tax avoidance. Meanwhile, the cost of debt had an insignificant negative effect on tax avoidance, meaning that the higher the cost of debt, the higher the tax avoidance

Amid intense market competition, the profitability of manufacturing companies is not solely determined by sales volume but is highly dependent on the precision of financial management, particularly in managing the working capital cycle and operating cash flow circulation. This study aims to evaluate the relationship between Working Capital Turnover (X1) and Operating Cash Flow (X2) on Profitability (Y) in consumer goods industry companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange during the 2022–2024 period. Using a quantitative approach and multiple linear regression analysis, this study processes 77 observations that have passed purposive sampling and outlier testing. The partial test results reveal contrasting findings: Working Capital Turnover (X1) does not have a significant effect on profitability, while Operating Cash Flow (X2) is proven to be a strong positive determinant. However, simultaneously, both variables have a significant influence on the financial performance of companies (Fhitung 24,008 > Ftabel 3,08), with operating cash flow acting as the dominant driving factor of profit. The implications of these findings emphasize that to maintain profit stability, management should prioritize the availability of cash generated from core operations, while investors should be more attentive to cash flow trends as an indicator of fundamental financial health before making investment decisions.

Investment decisions in pharmaceutical manufacturing companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) are influenced by fundamental analysis and stock price fluctuations. Stock prices reflect market perceptions shaped by profitability, liquidity, and capital structure. This study examines the effects of Return on Assets (ROA), Current Ratio (CR), and Debt-to-Equity Ratio (DER) on stock prices, both partially and simultaneously. Using a quantitative approach, the study analyzes secondary data from audited financial statements and stock prices of 12 pharmaceutical companies during 2022–2024, totaling 36 observations. Panel data regression with EViews 12 is applied. Results show that ROA and DER have positive and significant effects on stock prices, while CR has a negative but insignificant effect. Simultaneously, all three variables significantly influence stock prices, with an adjusted R² of 73%, indicating strong explanatory power. Profitability (ROA) is the most influential factor, followed by capital structure (DER), while liquidity (CR) shows no significant impact.

The Indonesian capital market has become a vital pillar of the national economy, providing opportunities for companies to obtain funding while simultaneously providing an investment vehicle for the wider community. In this context, stocks are the most sought-after instrument due to the potential returns they offer. However, stock investment is constantly faced with uncertainty, with fluctuating stock prices often presenting challenges for investors, especially those without a thorough understanding of the company's fundamental performance. An interesting phenomenon, the starting point of this research, is the quite extreme price movements of BIPI shares over the past decade. From 2015 to 2021, BIPI's share price remained stagnant at Rp 50 per share, a condition often referred to by market participants as "gocap" (goat capit). This condition reflects low investor interest in the company's shares, possibly due to high risk perceptions or unconvincing fundamental performance.

The increasingly tight competition in the textile and garment industry has led to the optimal management of capital structure and microfinance to increase the value of the company. This study aims to analyze the influence of microfinance and capital structure on the value of the company with profitability as an intervening variable. The method used is a quantitative method with secondary data obtained from the financial reports of textile and garment companies registered in the Indonesian Financial Services Authority for the period 2020–2024. Data analysis was conducted using Structural Equivalence Modeling-Partial Least Square (SEM-PLS). The results of the study indicate that microfinance has a positive and significant effect on profitability and firm value. Meanwhile, capital structure has a positive but insignificant effect on profitability and a negative and insignificant effect on firm value. Profitability is proven to have a positive and significant effect on firm value, but is unable to mediate the influence of microfinance and capital structure on firm value. Thus, the findings of this study confirm that profitability fails to be an integrating variable.

One of the most actively traded and liquid stock groups in the capital market is the LQ45 index, which consistently attracts investor attention due to its strong market capitalization and transaction volume. This study aims to analyze the influence of financial performance and financial management strategies on firm value among companies listed in the LQ45 index on the Indonesia Stock Exchange during the 2018–2022 period. The study population consisted of 73 LQ45-indexed companies, with purposive sampling used to select 23 companies that met the research criteria. This research employed a quantitative approach using path analysis to examine both direct and indirect relationships among variables. The findings indicate that profitability and leverage have a positive and significant effect on firm value. In addition, profitability and leverage also positively influence firm size, indicating that companies with stronger profitability and effective debt management tend to expand their operational scale. However, firm size does not significantly affect firm value and is unable to mediate the relationship between profitability, leverage, and firm value. These results suggest that investors place greater emphasis on profitability and leverage indicators than company size when evaluating firm value in LQ45 companies. Therefore, effective financial performance remains the primary factor in enhancing corporate value and investor confidence.

Penelitian ini bertujuan menganalisis pengaruh digital marketing dan literasi keuangan terhadap kinerja keuangan UMKM dengan keunggulan bersaing sebagai variabel mediasi. Penelitian menggunakan pendekatan kuantitatif eksplanatori dengan survei kepada 200 pelaku UMKM yang telah memanfaatkan kanal pemasaran digital. Teknik pengambilan sampel menggunakan purposive sampling, sedangkan data dikumpulkan melalui kuesioner skala Likert dan dianalisis menggunakan Partial Least Squares-Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM). Hasil pengujian ilustratif menunjukkan bahwa digital marketing berpengaruh positif terhadap keunggulan bersaing dan kinerja keuangan UMKM. Literasi keuangan juga berpengaruh positif terhadap keunggulan bersaing dan kinerja keuangan. Keunggulan bersaing terbukti berpengaruh positif terhadap kinerja keuangan serta memediasi secara parsial hubungan digital marketing dan literasi keuangan terhadap kinerja keuangan UMKM. Temuan ini mengindikasikan bahwa peningkatan kinerja keuangan UMKM tidak hanya ditentukan oleh intensitas promosi digital, tetapi juga oleh kemampuan pelaku usaha dalam mengelola informasi keuangan, menentukan harga, mengendalikan biaya, dan membangun nilai unik yang sulit ditiru pesaing. Penelitian ini memberikan implikasi bagi pelaku UMKM untuk mengintegrasikan strategi pemasaran digital dengan penguatan literasi keuangan agar keunggulan bersaing dapat dikonversi menjadi peningkatan penjualan, profitabilitas, dan arus kas.
