Average customer payment term: 13 days (formula: Customer receivables / Revenue incl. VAT x 360). Supplier term: 58 days. Excellent situation: suppliers finance 45 days of the operating cycle (retail model). Inventory turnover is 128 days (= Average inventory / Cost of goods x 360).

Over 2018-2024, WCR increased by +428%, requiring additional financing.
