Company value is investors' perception of the level of success of a company. The level of success of a company is usually often associated with stock prices. High stock prices make the value of the company also increased. In this study, sampling was conducted using a purposive sampling method. For the data analysis technique the researchers used multiple linear regression analysis techniques. From the results of hypothesis testing that has been done, it shows that profitability, leverage and income smoothing simultaneously affect the value of the company. When viewed commercially, the results of hypothesis testing profitability variables have an influence on firm value. Furthermore, the results of the analysis of leverage variables also have an influence on firm value variables.
