Company Review

Trend Analysis

EXPERIAN LIMITED generally settles invoices within a reasonable timeframe, with 64% paid within 30 days. However, the average payment time of 34 days and 31% of payments occurring between 31-60 days indicate a trend where a significant portion extends slightly beyond typical net-30 terms. This suggests a consistent trajectory towards payments being processed in the earlier part of the subsequent month.

Volatility Analysis

While the majority of payments are timely, the 5% of payments extending over 60 days introduces a moderate level of unpredictability for a small segment of invoices. The overall 14% late payment rate further indicates some variability in payment reliability, suggesting a minor risk of deviations from agreed schedules. Suppliers should acknowledge this degree of volatility when assessing payment certainty.

Summary Analysis

Overall, EXPERIAN LIMITED represents a generally reliable payer, with most invoices settled within 60 days. Suppliers should anticipate that approximately one-third of payments will arrive between 31-60 days, and account for a small percentage of significantly delayed payments. It is advisable to maintain clear payment terms and potentially build in a small buffer for cash flow planning to mitigate minor delays.
