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: 23 days (formula: Customer receivables / Revenue incl. VAT x 360). Supplier term: 29 days. Favorable situation: supplier credit is longer than customer credit by 6 days. Inventory turnover is 817 days (= Average inventory / Cost of goods x 360). This high level ties up cash and potentially creates obsolescence risk. WCR is negative (-1628 days): operations structurally generate cash. Notable WCR improvement over the period (-170%), freeing up cash.
