This study examines the financial performance of PT Unilever Indonesia Tbk during the 2023–2025 period by evaluating key financial indicators, namely the Current Ratio (CR), Debt to Equity Ratio (DER), Return on Assets (ROA), and Return on Equity (ROE). The study aims to assess the company's financial condition and analyze the impact of its business transformation strategy on financial performance. A descriptive quantitative approach was employed using secondary data obtained from the company's published annual financial reports. Data analysis focused on comparing financial ratio trends over the three-year period to evaluate liquidity, solvency, and profitability performance. The findings indicate that the company's financial performance experienced fluctuations during the business transformation process. Liquidity and solvency gradually improved toward the end of the observation period, reflecting stronger short-term financial capability and a healthier capital structure. Profitability also demonstrated increased efficiency in utilizing company assets, although changes in equity returns indicated adjustments in capital management during the transformation process. Overall, the implementation of the company's transformation strategy contributed positively to strengthening financial performance and improving resilience in responding to changing business conditions and market competition. This study provides useful insights for management, investors, and other stakeholders in evaluating the effectiveness of corporate transformation strategies through financial ratio analysis and highlights the importance of maintaining financial stability to support sustainable business growth.

This study aims to assess the financial performance of 11 non-financial companies that conducted acquisitions in 2025 and are listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX). Using a quantitative descriptive-comparative approach with a case study design, six financial ratios were analyzed: Current Ratio (CR), Debt to Asset Ratio (DAR), Debt to Equity Ratio (DER), Total Asset Turnover (TATO), Return on Assets (ROA), and Return on Equity (ROE). Data were obtained from consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2024 (pre-acquisition) and December 31, 2025 (post-acquisition). The results show that the impact of acquisitions varies across companies. No consistent or significant differences were found in the CR, DAR, DER, ROA, or ROE ratios between the two periods. Meanwhile, the TATO ratio tended to decrease after the acquisition, indicating that the newly consolidated assets have not yet operated optimally. These findings confirm that the short-term financial impact of an acquisition is heavily influenced by the transaction’s funding structure, the size of the acquired entity, and the industry sector. This study contributes to the financial accounting literature on corporate acquisition strategies in the Indonesian capital market.

This study examines the effect of working capital on firm performance and sustained growth among consumer non-cyclicals manufacturing companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) over the period 2019–2023. Working capital is operationalized through three distinct proxies derived from Akgün and Memiş Karatəs (2021): the Cash Holding Level (CHL), which measures the proportion of cash and cash equivalents relative to total assets; the Cash Interactive Effect (CIE), which captures the efficiency of converting revenue into operating cash flow; and the Gross Working Capital Ratio (GWCR), which reflects the share of current assets within total assets. Firm performance is assessed through Return on Assets (ROA), Return on Equity (ROE), and Tobin’s Q, while sustained growth is measured using the model proposed by Gerson et al. (2025), expressed as SG = b × ROE, where b denotes the earnings retention ratio. Panel data regression analysis is applied to 225 firm-year observations drawn from 45 companies. The study employs the Fixed Effect Model (FEM) for ROA and ROE, and the Random Effect Model (REM) for Tobin’s Q, as determined by the Hausman specification test. The findings reveal that CHL and CIE exert significant positive effects on ROA and ROE, while CIE is the only proxy to produce a statistically significant positive effect on Tobin’s Q. With respect to sustained growth, CHL and GWCR demonstrate significant negative effects, whereas CIE shows a significant positive effect, indicating that operational efficiency dimensions of working capital actively support long-term growth sustainability. These results reinforce the liquidity management theory and contribute empirical evidence that the structure and efficiency of working capital are strategic determinants of both short-term financial performance and long-term growth sustainability in Indonesia’s consumer goods manufacturing sector.

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.

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.

 This study was conducted to evaluate the influence of Total Asset Turnover (TATO), Debt to Equity Ratio (DER), and Net Profit Margin (NPM) in predicting stock return fluctuations. The study focuses on retail sector issuers listed on the Indonesian Stock Exchange (IDX) between 2021 and 2024. Through the application of panel data regression analysis, the study determined that the Common Effects Model (CEM) is the most appropriate estimation method. This decision was made based on a series of tests including the Chow Test and the Lagrange Multiplier. Although classical assumption testing showed symptoms of heteroscedasticity, this problem was addressed using the EGLS (cross-sector weighting) Panel method to ensure the validity of the estimates. Based on partial testing, it is found that TATO and NPM variables have a positive and significant contribution to stock returns, while DER is found to have no significant effect. Collectively, all independent variables had a significant effect, with the Adjusted R-Square value reaching 27.80%. This indicates that for investors in the retail sector, profitability and operational efficiency are important indicators in making investment decisions.

This study aims to examine the effect of Return on Assets (ROA), Debt to Equity Ratio (DER), and e-IPO regulation on the level of IPO underpricing on the Indonesia Stock Exchange during the 2021–2025 period. The research employs a causal quantitative approach using multiple linear regression analysis. Secondary data were collected from the prospectuses and financial statements of companies conducting Initial Public Offerings (IPOs).The results indicate that ROA does not have a significant effect on underpricing (significance value = 0.181). Similarly, DER is found to have no significant influence on underpricing (significance value = 0.268). The simultaneous test also shows a non-significant result, with an F-significance value of 0.120, suggesting that the independent variables collectively do not affect IPO underpricing. Furthermore, the coefficient of determination (R²) of 0.175 implies that only 17.5% of the variation in underpricing can be explained by the variables included in the model, while the remaining 82.5% is attributable to other factors outside the study, such as market sentiment, underwriter reputation, and oversubscription levels. These findings suggest that investors in the Indonesian IPO market tend to prioritize short-term capital gain opportunities rather than relying on firms’ financial fundamentals. Consequently, accounting-based indicators are not sufficiently influential in shaping stock prices during the first day of trading.

Financial performance is an important indicator for assessing the sustainability and growth prospects of a company, where a sustained negative net profit may indicate financial and operational problems (Aminah, 2015). The purpose of this study is to analyze the financial performance of PT GoTo Gojek Tokopedia Tbk for the period 2019-2023 based on NPM, ROA, and ROE. The research method used in this study is a qualitative method with a descriptive analysis approach. The data was sourced from the official website of PT GoTo Gojek Tokopedia Tbk for the period 2019-2023. The results show that all profitability ratios, namely Net Profit Margin (NPM), Return on Assets (ROA), and Return on Equity (ROE), are in an unfavorable condition and far below the standards set by Bank Indonesia (2004), namely NPM 3%–9.5%, ROA 0.5%–1.25%, and ROE 5%–12.5%. NPM was consistently negative from -276.74% (2019) to -373.12% (2023), indicating that the company has not been able to generate net income from its revenue due to high operating expenses. ROA was also negative throughout the period, ranging from -112.57% (2019) to -167.33% (2023), indicating that assets have not been utilized efficiently. Similarly, ROE recorded negative values from -162.02% (2019) to -253.41% (2023), reflecting that shareholders' capital has not been optimally managed and has not provided returns, so that overall financial performance requires a more effective financial management strategy.

This study aimed to analyze the effect of credit risk on profitability with liquidity as a mediating variable in banking companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) during 2022–2024. The study employed a quantitative approach with an explanatory research design. Secondary data were obtained from annual financial statements, and the sample consisted of 31 banking companies selected through purposive sampling from a total of 47 companies. The research variables included credit risk as the independent variable, profitability proxied by Return on Assets (ROA) as the dependent variable, and liquidity proxied by the Loan to Deposit Ratio (LDR) as the mediating variable. Data were analyzed using Partial Least Squares–Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM) through the assessment of the measurement model and the structural model. The results indicated that credit risk did not affect profitability and did not affect liquidity, while liquidity affected profitability. The findings also demonstrated that liquidity did not mediate the relationship between credit risk and profitability. The study implied that liquidity management played an important role in supporting bank profitability, whereas the influence of credit risk on profitability during the study period was likely driven by other factors outside the proposed model. This study provided empirical evidence on banking performance dynamics in 2022–2024; however, generalization should have been made cautiously due to the limited observation period and the variables included.

This study aims to analyze and obtain empirical evidence regarding the effect of profitability, leverage, and sales growth on tax avoidance in energy sector companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) for the 2020–2024 period. This research method uses a quantitative approach with secondary data in the form of annual financial reports obtained from the official IDX website and related company websites. The sampling technique used a purposive sampling method to obtain a sample of companies that met the research criteria during the observation period. The dependent variable in this study is tax avoidance, which is proxied by the Effective Tax Rate (ETR), while the independent variables consist of profitability as measured by Return on Assets (ROA), leverage as measured by the Debt to Equity Ratio (DER), and sales growth as measured by annual sales growth. The data analysis technique uses panel data regression through the stages of selecting the best model, classical assumption testing, multiple linear regression analysis, and hypothesis testing. The results of the study indicate that profitability, leverage, and sales growth simultaneously influence tax avoidance. Partially, profitability influences tax avoidance, while leverage and sales growth do not.

Dividend payment is an important financial decision that reflects a company’s performance and prospects from the perspective of investors. However, companies included in the LQ45 index still experience fluctuations in dividend payment policies from year to year. This study aims to analyze the effect of leverage, firm size, profitability, and liquidity on dividend payments of companies listed in the LQ45 index on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) during the 2023–2024 period. This research employs a quantitative approach using secondary data obtained from published financial statements. The sample was selected using a purposive sampling method, resulting in 33 companies with a total of 60 observations. Data analysis was conducted using panel data regression with the assistance of SPSS software. Leverage is measured by the Debt to Asset Ratio (DAR), firm size by the natural logarithm of total assets (LnTA), profitability by Return on Assets (ROA), liquidity by the Current Ratio (CR), and dividend payment by the Dividend Payout Ratio (DPR). The results show that leverage, firm size, profitability, and liquidity simultaneously have a significant effect on dividend payments. Partially, firm size and profitability have a positive and significant effect on dividend payments, while leverage and liquidity do not have a significant effect. These findings indicate that companies with larger firm size and higher profitability tend to have a greater ability to distribute dividends to investors.

This study aims to describe the concept of Immersive Commerce based on Augmented Reality (AR) in increasing consumer confidence in E-Commerce transactions and to design a conceptual prototype design framework for an AR E-Commerce system with a clear technical flow. The research method uses a literature study through a comprehensive review of AR-based E-Commerce implementations and needs analysis from the perspective of consumer problems and business opportunities. The main problem identified is consumer hesitation in purchasing products online due to limited visualization that relies solely on product photos, causing fears about differences in shape, size, and quality of goods. The research results produced a conceptual framework that includes an integrated system architecture with a frontend layer (AR visualization engine), backend layer (product database and 3D asset management), and integration layer, as well as a systematic user flow design from the discovery to the decision phase. Based on simulations using literature data, the designed framework has the potential to increase customer engagement by up to 169%, conversion rates by up to 11 times, and reduce product return rates by up to 50%. The benefits of this research include digital dimensions through E-Commerce technology innovation, social dimensions by increasing consumer trust and reducing product fraud, and environmental dimensions through the potential reduction of product returns. This conceptual prototype provides a foundation for digital innovation, social trust building, and environmental sustainability through reduced product returns.

This study aims to analyze the influence of internal company factors, including company size, networking capital, operating efficiency, liquidity, and leverage, on financial performance, proxied by Return on Assets. The research population includes 40 food & beverage subsector companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange during the 2019–2024 period. Using purposive sampling, 17 sample companies were selected, yielding a total of 102 data observations. This study adopts a quantitative approach, using secondary data obtained from the company's annual financial statements. Data analysis was performed using multiple linear regression to identify partial and simultaneous influences between variables. Empirical findings show that not all internal factors exert a uniform influence on financial performance, as some variables have been shown to have a significant influence, while others do not show a statistically significant relationship. These results have important implications for managers and investors in formulating internal management strategies to drive sustainable profitability

The implementation of PSAK 73, which adopted IFRS 16, brought fundamental changes to lease financial reporting, triggering various challenges for financial performance and corporate policy. The primary issue examined in this literature was the impact of lease capitalization on financial ratios, dividend policy, and potential earnings management. The overall objective of this study was to evaluate the differences in financial performance before and after the implementation of the new standard, as well as to identify the determinants of dividend policy across various sectors. The dominant method employed was a quantitative approach using comparative analysis and panel data regression on companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange. Key findings indicated that the implementation of PSAK 73 significantly increased total assets and liabilities (leverage), yet tended to decrease profitability ratios such as Return on Assets (ROA) and Return on Equity (ROE). Furthermore, dividend policy was found to be significantly influenced by profitability and the new capital structure resulting from lease capitalization  

This study aims to examine the factors influencing the level of sustainability report disclosure based on OJK regulations in KBMI 3 banking companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange in 2023. The level of sustainability disclosure is measured using the Sustainability Report Index (SR Index), constructed through content analysis of indicators stipulated in POJK No. 51/POJK.03/2017. The independent variables analyzed in this study include firm size, profitability proxied by Return on Assets (ROA) and Return on Equity (ROE), foreign ownership, and firm age. This research employs a quantitative explanatory approach using secondary data obtained from annual reports and sustainability reports. Data were analyzed using multiple linear regression with SPSS. The results indicate that firm size, foreign ownership, and firm age have a positive and significant effect on the level of sustainability report disclosure. Conversely, profitability measured by ROA and ROE does not have a significant effect. Simultaneously, all independent variables significantly influence sustainability report disclosure. These findings suggest that structural and ownership characteristics play a more dominant role in determining sustainability disclosure than financial performance, reflecting the regulator-driven nature of sustainability reporting in the Indonesian banking sector.

The objective of this study is to examine the effects of profitability, liquidity, leverage, and asset growth on dividend policy among food and beverage companies listed on the IDX during 2020-2023. The dependent variable in this study is dividend policy, specifically the proxy dividend payout ratio (DPR). The independent variables, including profitability as measured by return on equity (ROE), liquidity as measured by the current ratio (CR), leverage as measured by the debt-to-equity ratio (DER), and asset growth as measured by the asset growth proxy (Growth), will also be examined. The data collection process used secondary data and employed purposive sampling. The study’s initial population included 95 samples; however, after applying the criteria, 17 were found relevant. The methods used in this study include descriptive statistical analysis, classical assumption test, hypothesis testing, and multiple linear regression analysis. The study’s results suggest that profitability, liquidity, and leverage may have simultaneous effects on dividend policy. It appears that profitability and liquidity may positively affect dividend policy, while leverage may negatively affect it, and asset growth may have no effect. It is hoped that the results of this study will provide a useful reference point for management and other relevant parties as they plan dividend policy, maintain business continuity, and make investment decisions.

Tax is a major source of government revenue; however, tax avoidance remains a significant issue, particularly in the property and real estate sector, which is characterized by high growth and complex financial structures. This study examines the effects of leverage, profitability, and sales growth on tax avoidance, with firm size as a moderating variable. The study employs a quantitative approach, using secondary data from the annual financial statements of property and real estate companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange for the 2020–2024 period. The sample was selected using purposive sampling, and the data were analyzed using panel data regression techniques. Tax avoidance is proxied by the Cash Effective Tax Rate, leverage is measured by the Debt-to-Equity Ratio, profitability is measured by Return on Assets, sales growth is calculated as the annual change in sales, and firm size is measured using the natural logarithm of total assets. The results indicate that leverage and profitability significantly affect tax avoidance, whereas sales growth does not. Firm size is found to moderate the relationship between leverage and tax avoidance as well as between profitability and tax avoidance, but it does not moderate the relationship between sales growth and tax avoidance. The novelty of this study lies in the inclusion of sales growth as an independent variable and the positioning of firm size as a moderating variable within the property and real estate sector during the post-pandemic period. These findings provide practical implications for corporate tax management strategies and offer insights for regulators in strengthening tax supervision based on firm characteristics.

This study aims to examine the effect of Asset Structure, Profitability and Sales Growth on Capital Structure at PT Industri Jamu Dan Farmasi Sido Muncul Tbk for the 2014-2024 period, both partially and simultaneously. Asset structure is measured by total assets, profitability is measured by return on assets, sales growth is measured by sales growth, and capital structure is measured by debt to equity ratio. This study is a quantitative study with an associative approach. The data used in this study are the balance sheet and income statement of PT. Industri Jamu Dan Farmasi Sido Muncul Tbk for the 2014-2024 period. The method used in this study is multiple linear regression analysis techniques, classical assumption tests, t-tests, f-tests and coefficients of determination processed using the SPSS 26 program. The results of the study show that asset structure does not affect capital structure with a calculated t value of 2.288 t table 2.365. Sales growth does not affect the capital structure with a calculated t value of -0.203 < t table 2.365. And simultaneously, Asset Structure, Profitability and Sales Growth have an influence on the Capital Structure of the Company PT Industri Jamu Dan Farmasi Sido Muncul Tbk. Proven from the results of the f test, the calculated f value is 8.083 > f table of 4.35 and the sig value is 0.011 < 0.05.

This study aims to examine the effect of the Current Ratio (CR), Debt to Equity Ratio (DER), and Return on Assets (ROA) on firm value (Tobin’s Q) in property and real estate companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) during the period 2020-2024. Using a descriptive quantitative method with purposive sampling, this study involves 6 companies and 97 data observations. Data analysis was performed using panel data regression, t-test, F-test, and coefficient of determination tests. The results show that CR has a negative and significant effect on firm value with a t-value of -3.760941 and a significance level of 0.0011. Meanwhile, DER has a positive but insignificant effect on firm value with a t-value of 0.508701 and a significance level of 0.6163. ROA also has a negative but insignificant effect with a t-value of -1.254781 and a significance level of 0.2233. Simultaneously, the F-test results show a significant effect from all three variables on firm value, with an F-value of 14.37946 (greater than the F-table value of 2.975) and a significance level of 0.000001. The Adjusted R-Square value of 78.69% indicates that the independent variables explain 78.69% of the variation in firm value, while the remaining 21.31% is explained by other factors.

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.
