Company Review
Trend Analysis
The data for Glencore UK Ltd. shows a fluctuating trend in the average time taken to pay invoices to suppliers. From 2018 to 2023, the average time to pay increased from 12 days to 27 days, with a peak of 28 days in 2023. This indicates a potential issue with delayed payments over time.
Volatility Analysis
The volatility in Glencore UK Ltd.'s payment behavior can be seen in the fluctuation of the percentage of invoices paid within 30 days, which decreased from 96% in 2018 to 86% in 2023. However, there was a slight increase in the percentage of invoices paid within 60 days, from 4% in 2018 to 10% in 2023. This suggests that while the company is still paying the majority of invoices within the agreed terms, there has been a slight delay in payments over time.
Summary Analysis
Overall, Glencore UK Ltd. has maintained a relatively stable payment pattern over the three periods analyzed. The average time to pay has increased by 11 days, and the percentage of invoices paid within 30 days has decreased by 10%, while the percentage of invoices paid within 60 days has increased by 6%. However, it is worth noting that there was a significant increase in the percentage of invoices not paid within agreed terms in the last period (2023), which could be a cause for concern. Additionally, the company has consistently maintained a standard payment period of one day throughout the analyzed periods.
