Abstract

The purpose of this article is to assess if the earnings per share achieved by banking sector in Jordan influenced by operating cash flow to total assets (OTTA) and operating cash flow to total debts (OTTD) or not. In this study relied on two operating cash flow indicators (OTTA and OTTD) as independent variables and depend on earnings per share (EPS) as dependent variable. To fulfill this objective, the research population is drawn from the banking sector, with the sample comprising 15 banks operating in Jordan, all of which are listed on the Amman Stock Exchange (ASE).
