Abstract

This research aims to analyze the influence of Managerial Ownership, Total Asset Turnover (TATO), and Time Interest Earned (TIE) on Market Capitalization, either directly or indirectly through Economic Value Added (EVA) as an intervening variable. The study focuses on coal distribution sub-industry companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange during the 2018–2023 period. Using purposive sampling, 11 companies were selected, producing a total of 66 samples across six years. Data were analyzed using Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) with AMOS 26. The results showed that Managerial Ownership, TATO, and TIE have a significant negative influence on EVA. EVA also negatively and significantly affects Market Capitalization, indicating that higher EVA is not necessarily positively responded to by the market. Managerial Ownership has a direct significant positive effect on Market Capitalization, while TATO and TIE do not show significant direct effects. Indirectly, Managerial Ownership and TATO significantly influence Market Capitalization through EVA, whereas TIE does not. The coefficient of determination (R²) indicates that Managerial Ownership, TATO, and TIE simultaneously explain 59.8% of the variance in EVA and 45.9% of the variance in Market Capitalization. These findings emphasize EVA’s role as a mediator and reveal a potential gap between a company’s fundamental value and market perception. The study suggests a balanced financial strategy that promotes long-term economic value creation rather than short-term efficiency. It also encourages investors to consider EVA as a performance indicator alongside traditional profitability metrics.
