Company Review

Trend Analysis

BOSE LIMITED demonstrates a strong trend of prompt payments, with an average payment time of just 11 days and 89% of invoices settled within 30 days. However, the 44% late payment rate indicates a significant number of invoices exceeding their due date, suggesting a discrepancy between average speed and adherence to terms.

Volatility Analysis

While a high percentage of payments are made within 30 days, the 44% late payment rate suggests inconsistency in adherence to payment terms, creating some unpredictability for suppliers. The 7% of payments extending beyond 60 days represents a moderate risk factor for cash flow planning, even though the overall average is very low.

Summary Analysis

Overall, BOSE LIMITED presents a mixed payment profile; most invoices are paid very quickly, but the substantial late payment percentage and some extending beyond 60 days require consideration. Suppliers should proceed with a general expectation of prompt payment, but acknowledge the moderate risk of delays for a significant portion of invoices and plan for potential extended terms. Implementing clear payment term agreements and monitoring payment patterns closely could help mitigate potential cash flow disruptions.
