Abstract: The purpose of this study is to investigate the influence of profitability and liquidity on firm value, considering the role of capital structure as a mediating variable in pharmaceutical companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange. The research is quantitative and uses data from pharmaceutical companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange from 2016 to 2021. The findings reveal that profitability positively impacts capital structure and firm value, while liquidity negatively affects them. However, capital structure does not mediate the effect of profitability and liquidity on firm value.
