Company Review

Trend Analysis

The average payment time of 44 days indicates that COOPERVISION MANUFACTURING LIMITED consistently pays beyond standard 30-day terms. A dominant 53% of payments fall into the 31-60 day bracket, suggesting a regular pattern of extended payment cycles. Only 34% of invoices are settled within 30 days, reinforcing a trajectory towards slower payment.

Volatility Analysis

While over half of payments occur within 31-60 days, the 36% late payment rate introduces a significant degree of unreliability for suppliers. The 13% of payments extending beyond 60 days specifically highlights a risk of substantial delays for a measurable portion of invoices. This data indicates that a notable percentage of payments will not be predictable within typical payment windows, posing a cash flow challenge.

Summary Analysis

Suppliers should anticipate an average payment cycle of around 44 days, with a significant risk of 36% of invoices being paid late. Key decision factors include adjusting internal cash flow projections and considering the impact of a 13% chance of payments extending beyond 60 days. Mitigate risk by negotiating clear payment terms, potentially requiring deposits for larger orders, or adjusting pricing to cover financing costs for extended credit.
