This study aims to provide empirical evidence on the impact of fundamental factors on stock prices. The factors identified in this study include the current ratio, return on assets, debt to equity ratio, earning per share, and price earnings ratio.

The purposive sampling method was used to select the sample. The multiple regression model was employed as a statistical testing tool. The study found that return on assets and earning per share have a significant and positive impact on stock prices, consistent with the hypothesis.
