Ranked in 4 industries
This company is listed under more than one industry, so we show its position in each rather than picking one.
LINIAR LIMITED exhibits a consistent payment pattern, averaging 42 days, which extends beyond standard 30-day terms. A significant majority (53%) of payments fall within the 31-60 day window, indicating a stable trend towards settling invoices in the second month.
While 82% of payments are made within 60 days, 30% are consistently late, introducing a moderate level of unpredictability for suppliers. The 18% of payments extending beyond 60 days suggests a discernible risk of longer delays, impacting cash flow reliability.
Suppliers should factor LINIAR LIMITED's average 42-day payment cycle into their cash flow planning and anticipate payments beyond 30 days. To mitigate risk, consider establishing credit terms that align with a 60-day cycle or implementing staggered payment schedules, coupled with proactive invoice follow-ups.
