Company Review
Trend Analysis
The data shows a fluctuation in the average time taken for Warner Bros. Studios Leavesden Limited to pay invoices to suppliers over the past three periods. In the first period, from Jan 2018 to June 2018, the average time to pay was at 29 days, with 60% of invoices paid within 30 days. However, there was a slight increase in the second period, from July 2018 to Dec 2018, with the average time to pay at 31 days and only 62% of invoices paid within 30 days. The trend continues to fluctuate in the third period, from Jan 2019 to June 2019, with the average time to pay staying at 31 days but with a decrease in the percentage of invoices paid within 30 days to 60%. This trend suggests that the company may be facing some challenges in meeting their payment obligations to suppliers consistently.
Volatility Analysis
The data also shows a fluctuation in the percentage of invoices paid within the agreed terms of the company. In the first period, only 24% of invoices were not paid within the agreed terms, but this increased to 32% in the second period and then decreased to 27% in the third period. This volatility suggests that the company may be facing some internal challenges that are affecting their ability to consistently pay invoices within the agreed terms.
Summary Analysis
Looking at the past three periods, from Jan 2021 to June 2021, Warner Bros. Studios Leavesden Limited has shown a consistent trend of paying invoices within an average of 38 days. However, there has been a slight increase in the percentage of invoices paid between 31 and 60 days, from 43% in the second period to 50% in the third period. This suggests that the company may be facing some challenges in meeting their payment obligations, leading to a delay in paying invoices within the agreed terms. It is worth noting that the percentage of invoices paid later than 60 days has also increased slightly from 8% in the second period to 12% in the third period. This indicates a potential issue with the company's cash flow or payment processing system.
