Company Review

Trend Analysis

Most payments are settled promptly within 30 days (90%), indicating a generally efficient payment process for the vast majority of invoices. However, the 40-day average payment time and 7% of payments exceeding 60 days reveal a consistent pattern of significant delays for a minority of transactions.

Volatility Analysis

The significant variance, with 90% paid within 30 days but 15% late and 7% over 60 days, introduces unpredictability regarding actual payment dates. This dual reliability poses a moderate risk for suppliers, requiring anticipation of potential extended payment cycles for a subset of invoices.

Summary Analysis

Overall, VICTORIA COACH STATION LIMITED presents a mixed risk profile; while most payments are timely, a notable minority experience significant delays. Suppliers should consider the 15% late payment rate and 7% extremely late payments as key decision factors impacting cash flow planning. It is recommended to establish clear payment terms, actively monitor outstanding invoices, and potentially factor in a longer payment window for a portion of expected receivables to mitigate risk.
