This study examines the impact of intellectual capital and knowledge management on the performance of knowledge-based firms, with an emphasis on the mediating role of competitive advantage, grounded in the Resource-Based View (RBV). In this study, firm performance is measured using the Balanced Scorecard approach. This applied research adopts a descriptive–correlational design. Data were collected through a questionnaire administered to senior and middle managers of knowledge-based firms in 2025, yielding 158 usable responses. The hypotheses were tested using Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modeling. The results indicate that intellectual capital has a positive and significant effect on firm performance; however, the indirect effect of intellectual capital on performance through competitive advantage is not significant. In contrast, knowledge management has a positive and significant effect on firm performance both directly and indirectly through competitive advantage, with competitive advantage playing a partial mediating role in this relationship. Additionally, competitive advantage has a positive and significant effect on firm performance.
