Working capital requirement (WCR) measures the cash timing gap between customer collections and supplier/inventory payments. Average customer payment term: 416 days (formula: Customer receivables / Revenue incl. VAT x 360). Supplier term: 392 days. The company must finance 24 days of gap between collections and payments. Inventory turnover is 293 days (= Average inventory / Cost of goods x 360). This high level ties up cash and potentially creates obsolescence risk. Overall, WCR represents 683 days of revenue, i.e. 62 k€ to permanently finance. Over 2016-2019, WCR increased by +756%, requiring additional financing.
