Findings: The results indicate the existence of a positive impact relationship with a significant significance between the working capital and the value of the company at a significant level of 0.05, as an increase in working capital and the value of the company at a significant level of 0.05 by one unit leads to an improvement of (0.602) , and the results also showed a significant impact relationship with a value of (T) of (13.251), and the regression coefficients with a value of (F) amounted to (103.224), and this contributed to the explanation of the amount of (0.240) of the permissible discrepancy between working capital and the company's value is at a significant level of( 0.05). Research, Practical & Social implications: The need to pay attention to current assets and current liabilities and invest optimally in them because they are an important element along with fixed assets and long-term liabilities in order to achieve high profitability ratios and then achieve optimal performance and try to maximize the wealth of the owners.
