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: 28 days (formula: Customer receivables / Revenue incl. VAT x 360). Supplier term: 16 days. The company must finance 12 days of gap between collections and payments. Inventory turnover is 116 days (= Average inventory / Cost of goods x 360). This high level ties up cash and potentially creates obsolescence risk. Overall, WCR represents 188 days of revenue, i.e. 531 k€ to permanently finance. Notable WCR improvement over the period (-32%), freeing up cash.
