This study investigates the impact of audit opinion, audit quality, ESG, and intellectual capital on firm value, with financial distress as a moderating factor. This study utilized a quantitative approach. The sample was selected using a purposive sampling method, consisting of 11 companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) and included in the ESG Leaders Index for the 2021–2024 period, yielding a total of 44 observations. The data were analyzed using panel data regression with the assistance of E-Views 12 software.
