Abstract

The development of pharmaceutical companies is now growing rapidly and competition is getting tougher, especially for our country Indonesia. Pharmaceutical companies are non-profit businesses that specialize in the development, production and distribution of medicines, especially those related to health. Indonesia's rapidly growing economy is largely driven by pharmaceutical companies. The pharmaceutical industry is currently a rapidly growing industry due to the very high public need for medicines, resulting in an increase in mass consumption, especially multivitamin products and immune enhancers. Based on the current development of the pharmaceutical consumer goods industry, it is not surprising that the number of companies engaged in pharmaceuticals on the Indonesia Stock Exchange has increased greatly. The purpose of this study was to analyze and test the effect of working capital, inventory turnover and sales growth on profitability through liquidity in pharmaceutical companies listed on the IDX in 2020-2023.
