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: 2 days (formula: Customer receivables / Revenue incl. VAT x 360). Supplier term: 47 days. Excellent situation: suppliers finance 45 days of the operating cycle (retail model). Inventory turnover is 147 days (= Average inventory / Cost of goods x 360). This high level ties up cash and potentially creates obsolescence risk. Overall, WCR represents 160 days of revenue, i.e. 1.4 M€ to permanently finance. Over 2016-2024, WCR increased by +122%, requiring additional financing.
