ABSTRACT

The issues of sustainability and environmental responsibility have become increasingly relevant in evaluating corporate performance, especially in emerging markets. This study aims to examine the effect of carbon emission disclosure and green innovation on financial performance. The research employs a quantitative approach using purposive sampling of energy and consumer non-cyclical sector companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) during 2021–2023. Multiple regression analysis was conducted using SPSS. The results indicate that carbon emission disclosure has a significant negative effect on financial performance. Green innovation, as proxied by green process innovation, has a positive and significant effect on financial performance. Meanwhile, green product innovation shows no significant effect on financial performance.

Keywords: Financial Performance, Carbon Emission Disclosure, Green Innovation
