Company Review

Trend Analysis

The data for DAMARTEX UK LIMITED shows a fluctuating trend in the average time taken to pay invoices over the past three periods. From 2017 to 2021, there was a slight decrease in the average time taken to pay invoices. However, in 2022 and 2023, there was a significant increase in the average time taken to pay invoices.

Volatility Analysis

The data also shows volatility in the company's payment patterns. In 2017 and 2018, there was a significant percentage of invoices paid later than 60 days, which decreased in 2019 and 2020 but increased again in 2021 and 2022. This suggests that the company's payment habits are not consistent and can change drastically from period to period.

Summary Analysis

The data for DAMARTEX UK LIMITED over the past three periods (2021-2023) shows a slight increase in the average time taken to pay invoices, from 46 days in 2021 to 52 days in 2023. This increase can be attributed to a decrease in the percentage of invoices paid within 30 days and an increase in the percentage of invoices paid later than 60 days. In 2023, over 50% of the invoices were paid later than 60 days, which is the worst period in terms of timely payments.
