This study aims to analyze the effect of financial distress, audit fee, profitability, and solvency on audit delay with company size as a control variable in financial sector companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange for the 2023–2024 period. This study employs a correlational quantitative approach using secondary data obtained from annual reports and audited financial statements. The research sample was selected using purposive sampling technique, resulting in 184 observations. The results indicate that financial distress has a significant positive effect on audit delay, audit fee has a significant negative effect on audit delay, profitability has a significant positive effect on audit delay, and solvency has a significant negative effect on audit delay. Meanwhile, company size as a control variable also has a significant negative effect on audit delay. These findings suggest that a company's financial condition, audit fee adequacy, and debt structure meaningfully influence the length of the audit completion process, and therefore companies need to pay closer attention to these factors in order to improve the timeliness of financial reporting in accordance with applicable regulations.
