Working capital requirement (WCR) measures the cash timing gap between customer collections and supplier/inventory payments. Average customer payment term: 65 days (formula: Customer receivables / Revenue incl. VAT x 360). Supplier term: 82 days. Favorable situation: supplier credit is longer than customer credit by 17 days. Inventory turnover is 4105 days (= Average inventory / Cost of goods x 360). This high level ties up cash and potentially creates obsolescence risk. Overall, WCR represents 4576 days of revenue, i.e. 527 k€ to permanently finance. Over 2016-2018, WCR increased by +1132%, requiring additional financing.
