Integrating reporting strives to address issues with corporate reporting procedures and hold businesses responsible for their local surroundings, as well as additional stakeholders impacted by their operations in producing returns for investors. This study employed Nigerian deposit money banks to examine whether investor returns with profit after tax and integrated reporting are statistically and significantly related. Ex post facto research methodology was applied. Purposive sampling was used to sample ten Nigerian deposit money banks. Data were taken from the annual reports of the chosen banks. The international integrated reporting framework of 2021 checklist was utilized to extract integrated reporting data using the unweighted content analysis method. The integrated reporting disclosure index was used as a proxy for integrated reporting. Market price per share, dividend per share, and price-earnings ratio were used as proxies for investor returns. Profit after tax was used as a moderating variable. The results indicate that with the moderating variable, which is Profit after tax, integrated reporting and price-earnings ratio are related to coefficients of 9.9585. Integrated reporting and dividend per share are related to coefficients of 3.151612. Integrated reporting and market price per share are related to coefficients of 36.7535. Dividend per share and integrated reporting disclosure are significantly related to p-values of 0.001. Market price per share and integrated reporting disclosure are significantly related to p-values of 0.002.
