The data collected is secondary data in the form of audited financial statements of the firms using a documentary method via the Indonesia Stock Exchange. The method of analysis used in this research is the outer model and the inner model through SmartPls 3.0 program. The results of this study indicate that: audit of tenure and firm size have no effect on audit delay and timeliness, and audit delay significantly influences timeliness. For further research authors suggest testing the financial reporting timeliness with different objects, i.e., by adding other variables that are expected to affect the financial reporting timeliness.
