Skripsi ini mencoba mengaplikasikan penelitian yang dilakukan oleh Dodd dan Favaro (2007) dalam bukunya yang berjudul: ?The Three Tensions? pada perusahaan ritel di Indonesia. Namun penelitian hanya difokuskan kepada profitability versus growth tension dan today versus tomorrow tension. Berdasarkan penelitian yang dilakukan, PT Enseval Putera Megatrading Tbk. relatif telah berhasil mengendalikan tensions tersebut dalam lingkaran korporat. Skripsi ini juga mendukung hasil penelitian bahwa batting average memiliki korelasi positif dengan total shareholder returns (TSR). Namun demikian terdapat faktor lain yang perlu diperhatikan, yaitu adanya fluktuasi atas pergerakan harga saham.
