AMPHENOL LIMITED demonstrates a consistently slow payment pattern, with an average payment time of 67 days and 46% of payments extending beyond 60 days. The concentration of payments in the 31-60 day bracket (42%) combined with the over-60-day figure suggests a structural tendency toward extended payment cycles rather than isolated delays. Only 12% of payments are made within 30 days, indicating that prompt payment is the exception rather than the norm for this company.
With 51% of payments classified as late, AMPHENOL LIMITED presents a high-risk payment profile with significant unpredictability in cash flow timing for suppliers. The wide spread of payments across all time brackets — from under 30 days to over 60 days — signals inconsistent payment behaviour, making it difficult to forecast receivables with confidence. This level of variability introduces meaningful working capital risk for suppliers operating on tighter margins or shorter credit cycles.
AMPHENOL LIMITED represents an elevated payment risk, and suppliers should approach this relationship with clear protective measures in place. It is strongly advisable to negotiate explicit payment terms in contracts, consider shorter credit periods with financial penalties for late payment, or require partial upfront payment to offset exposure. Suppliers with limited liquidity tolerance should weigh whether the commercial opportunity justifies the cost of financing extended receivables averaging 67 days.
