The Endron scandal modified and displayed incorrect financial data which resulted in KAP having to participate in accounting for the company's financial statements. This problem has an impact on Indonesia so that there is a regulation on the replacement of auditors or KAP in auditing the company's financial statements. The purpose of this study is to determine the influence of financial distress, audit delay, and audit quality on auditor switching.

The research population of energy sector companies listed on the IDX for the 2018-2022 period is 75 companies.
