This study aims to examine how the ability of financial performance that represent leverage consisting of debt to asset ratio (DAR), debt to equity ratio (DER), and profitability including return on asset (ROA), return on equity (ROE), and net profit margin (NPM) in predicting stock returns. The research applies a final sample of 163 companies of non-financial sector registered in IDX in 2015-2019. This research applies analysis of multiple linear regression. The study results prove that DAR, ROE, NPM have no significant influence toward the stock returns. DER and ROA give such a significant and also negative influence on stock returns.
