Data analysis techniques used in this research are classic assumption test, simple linear regression, F test and t test using the SPSS 21 version as a data processing program. The results showed that the intellectual capital had a positive and significant effect on financial performance. This finding indicates that the more efficient and effective a company is in managing its IC, the more it will improve the company's financial performance. The company's ability to generate profit with the total equity owned by the company is increasing with the company using and making the most of its IC. So this research proves that IC plays an important role in the formation of added value and contributes to improving the company's financial performance. This finding also confirms the resource based theory, that intellectual capital owned by companies is able to create competitive advantages for companies so that they can improve company performance for the better, one of which is increasing company profits.
