Sampel penelitian terdiri dari 71 firm-years yang termasuk dalam Indeks LQ45 tahun 2009 dan 2010. Rata-rata reporting lag perusahaan sampel adalah 86 hari. Analisis regresi linear berganda menunjukkan bahwa profitabilitas (NPM) berpengaruh negatif terhadap reporting lag perusahaan dan rasio utang (TDR) berpengaruh positif terhadap reporting lag perusahaan.
