The Foreign exchange rate or the FX is usually defined as the price at which a currency pair is converted, where it plays an important role in the international trade, economic performance, and balances of payment (Lagat & Nyandema, 2016).

The study sample included (14) companies, of which (9) were industrial companies, and (4) service companies. To achieve the objective of the study, the quantitative analysis approach based on reference to sectional time series data (Panel Data) was used.
Keywords: fluctuations in foreign exchange rates, financial performance, industrial and service companies listed on the Palestine Exchange.
