The technique used in sampling this study is by purposive sampling method taken based on certain criteria. The number of samples used was 48 companies observing 240 samples during the 2016-2020 research period. This study used the help of the spss program version 25 with the logistic regression analysis method. The results of this study show that the variables of financial distress and audit opinion of the previous year have a positive and significant effect on the acceptance of going concern audit opinion. The moderation variable of the COVID-19 pandemic cannot affect the relationship between financial distress and going concern audit opinions. The COVID-19 pandemic was unable to moderate the relationship between the previous year's audit opinion and the going concern audit opinion.
