Abstract

The company’s current value is not only determined by tangible assets. The ability of intangible assets in increasing company value today is very interesting to be studied. Intellectual Capital is an intangible asset in the form of knowledge, talents, skills, information, networking that can be managed by a company to increase its competitive ability. This study investigated the effect of intellectual capital on firm value both directly and indirectly with profitability functioning as an intervening variable. The firm value as a dependent variable is proxied by Tobin’s Q, while the profitability variable that functions as an intervening variable is proxied by ROA. Intellectual capital is measured using VAIC, which consists of 3 measurement components, that is Value-Added of Human Capital (VAHU), Value-Added of Employed Capital (VACA), and Structural Capital Value-Added (STVA). The research method used multiple regression analysis tools with a panel data approach and path analysis. The subject of this study is companies that are in the hotel, restaurant, and tourism sub-sector, which are listed in the Indonesia Stock Exchange in the 2014-2018 period selected using purposive sampling techniques. Research data is in form of secondary data extracted from the company’s financial statements during the study period. The results show that profitability, VACA, and VAHU directly affect the value of the company, while only VAHU directly affected the profitability of the company. Meanwhile, in the indirect relationship using the Sobel-Test, the results show that the profitability of the company can only mediate VAHU toward the company value, but profitability cannot mediate the effect of VACA and STVA on company value.
