The second point is release financial statements in a continuous sequence spanning from 2018 to 2022. 3) Only 17 firms were selected based on the criterion of consistently generating profits. The data is acquired from the company's yearly financial filings. This data was obtained using a secondary data gathering methodology. Subsequently, the hypothesis is examined through the utilization of the multiple linear regression technique provided by the SPSS software.
