The results of this study indicate that profitability (ROA) has no significant effect on dividend policy, meaning that high or low ROA values do not change the dividend policy, which is consistently distributed annually. Liquidity (CR) has a negative and significant effect on dividend policy, indicating that despite declining liquidity, companies continue to distribute dividends. Leverage (DER) has a negative and significant effect on dividend policy, indicating that even though companies have decreased leverage, they still distribute dividends. Company size has a positive and significant effect on dividend policy, indicating that the larger the company, the greater its ability to pay dividends. Investment Opportunity Set (IOS) has no significant effect on dividend policy, indicating that regardless of the MBVE value of each sample company, dividends are still distributed as a form of commitment to business continuity. Profitability, liquidity, leverage, company size (Size), and Investment Opportunity Set (IOS) simultaneously influence dividend policy.
