Company Review

Trend Analysis

SELECT PLANT HIRE COMPANY LIMITED demonstrates a mixed payment speed, averaging 35 days, with 56% of payments processed within 30 days. However, a significant 30% of payments fall into the 31-60 day range, and 14% extend beyond 60 days, indicating a trend of inconsistent payment velocity.

Volatility Analysis

The company exhibits moderate payment volatility, as evidenced by a 28% late payment rate and 14% of invoices extending beyond 60 days. This substantial proportion of delayed payments creates unpredictability and potential cash flow challenges for suppliers.

Summary Analysis

Suppliers should anticipate an average 35-day payment cycle and factor in the 28% late payment risk when establishing terms and managing their own liquidity. Implementing clear payment terms, proactive follow-up, or considering credit limit adjustments are recommended strategies to mitigate potential delays.
