Working capital requirement (WCR) and payment terms

Working capital requirement (WCR) measures the cash timing gap between customer collections and supplier/inventory payments. Average customer payment term: 161 days (formula: Customer receivables / Revenue incl. VAT x 360). Supplier term: 3 days. The gap of 158 days means the company finances its customers for over a month before being paid relative to supplier payments. This weighs on cash flow. Inventory turnover is 100 days (= Average inventory / Cost of goods x 360). This high level ties up cash and potentially creates obsolescence risk. Overall, WCR represents 46 days of revenue, i.e. 9 k€ to permanently finance.
