Abstract Purpose: The study specifically analyzes how media exposure and profitability influence carbon emission disclosure (CED) in mining companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) during 2019–2023 and evaluates whether company size moderates these relationships. Method: Using a quantitative approach, the research applied purposive sampling and obtained 64 mining companies as the final sample. Data were collected from annual reports and sustainability reports, then analyzed through descriptive statistics and hypothesis testing using the Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM) method with WarpPLS 7.0. Findings: The results show that media exposure has no significant effect on CED, while profitability has a positive and significant effect. Moreover, company size moderates the relationship between media exposure and CED but does not moderate the link between profitability and CED. Novelty: The novelty lies in introducing company size as a moderating variable, offering fresh insights into the interaction between internal capacity and external pressures in shaping disclosure practices.
