Abstract

A decision that can affect a firm performance is the selection of its capital structure. To maximize a firms’ profit or to check the ability of a firm in gung-ho situations, capital structure decisions play a very important role. The expectations of the shareholder towards the firms performance are closely correlated with its capital structure decisions. Capital structure is a technique of a firm to finance its assets and for this, company uses the mixture of equity and debt. In this study, the researchers investigated the association between capital structure and financial performance of the NSC listed companies from 2017-2018 to 2021-2022. DR is negatively correlated with EPS and ROE but shows significant relationship with GP and NP which means there is a positive correlation with financial performance. In the same way DER is positively correlated with all the financial performance measures i.e. GP, NP and EPS except ROE. The R square value of GP, NP, ESP and ROE ratios represents 25.5%, 35.1%, 32.4% and 73.9% experimental deviation in the financial performance elucidated by the variations in two independent variables i.e. DR and DER ratio.
