Average customer payment term: 81 days (formula: Customer receivables / Revenue incl. VAT x 360). Supplier term: 4 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 293 days (= Average inventory / Cost of goods x 360). This high level ties up cash and potentially creates obsolescence risk. WCR is negative (-60 days): operations structurally generate cash. Notable WCR improvement over the period (-108%), freeing up cash.
