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: 45 days. Excellent situation: suppliers finance 43 days of the operating cycle (retail model). Inventory turnover is 304 days (= Average inventory / Cost of goods x 360). This high level ties up cash and potentially creates obsolescence risk. Overall, WCR represents 777 days of revenue, i.e. 10.6 M€ to permanently finance. Over 2017-2025, WCR increased by +322%, requiring additional financing.
