Raising or lowering: Can green accounting and environmental performance affect stock prices when profitability rises?
Vol 8, Issue 8, 2024
VIEWS - 1857 (Abstract)
Abstract
This paper examines the influence of green accounting and environmental performance on stock prices, focusing on Indonesia’s mining sector. It aims to understand whether these factors, along with profitability, impact the growth of stock prices. The study is grounded in stakeholder, legitimacy, and signal theories, emphasizing the role of stakeholder support and environmental responsibility in company survival. The research explores the conflicting results of previous studies on the impact of green accounting on stock prices. It uses various indicators, such as environmental costs for green accounting and the PROPER rating system, to measure environmental performance. The study also considers profitability as a moderating variable. The population in this research is all mining companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange in 2017–2021. The sample was selected based on purposive sampling with several criteria. Multiple regression analysis and hypothesis testing were used to analyze the data. Key findings suggest that green accounting positively influences stock prices, while environmental performance has a negative effect. Profitability positively affects stock prices but does not significantly moderate the impact of green accounting on stock prices. However, it does enhance the relationship between environmental performance and stock prices. The study concludes that companies should increase disclosures related to green accounting and environmental performance, which are crucial for long-term investment considerations.
