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: 154 days (formula: Customer receivables / Revenue incl. VAT x 360). Supplier term: 77 days. The gap of 77 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 228 days (= Average inventory / Cost of goods x 360). This high level ties up cash and potentially creates obsolescence risk. Overall, WCR represents 68 days of revenue, i.e. 2.4 M€ to permanently finance. Notable WCR improvement over the period (-63%), freeing up cash.
