Abstract :
Identification of the company's financial dif iculties is very important as an early warning
system before bankruptcy occurs. These conditions can be predicted using models that have
been developed by many researchers. This study aims to analyze the ef ect of profitability, liquidity, leverage, and firm size on predicting the company's financial dif iculties. A sample
of 15 companies was taken by purposive sampling from textile and garment companies listed
on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) in 2016-2020. The data analysis technique used is
logistic regression. Based on simultaneous testing of independent variables: profitability
(return on assets), liquidity (current ratio), leverage (debt to equity ratio), and firm size have
a significant ef ect on predicting the company's financial distress. The contribution of the
four independent variables in predicting financial distress is 78%. Partial test results only
profitability (return on assets) has a significant negative ef ect in predicting the company's
financial distress. The liquidity (current ratio), leverage (debt to equity ratio), and firm size
have no significant ef ect in predicting the company's financial distress. The greater the
profitability, the greater the company's ability to generate profits. The greater the profit
generated, the greater the company's ability to meet all of its obligations so that the less
likely the company is to experience financial distress.
