The impact of sustainability reporting on the economic value added of manufacturing firms listed on the Nigeria Stock Exchange was investigated in this study. Between 2008 and 2019, the sample size of this study was twenty-one (21) listed industrial businesses. Secondary data was gathered from the annual reports and accounts of the sampled businesses and analysed using E-Views 10 statistical software utilising an ex-post facto research approach and content analysis. Pearson correlation, Panel Least Square (PLS) regression analysis, granger causality test, and Hausman test were used in the study for descriptive and inferential statistics.
