Company Review

Trend Analysis

LARKFLEET LIMITED's average payment time is 60 days, with the dominant trend showing 56% of payments occurring within the 31-60 day window. However, a significant 37% of payments consistently extend beyond 60 days, indicating a slow overall payment trajectory for a considerable portion of invoices.

Volatility Analysis

The predictability of receiving payments within standard terms is low, as evidenced by 37% of payments going over 60 days and 38% being classified as late. This substantial deviation from typical 30-day terms introduces considerable cash flow volatility and heightened risk for suppliers expecting timely remuneration.

Summary Analysis

Suppliers should anticipate extended payment cycles when dealing with LARKFLEET LIMITED, with a high probability of payments exceeding 60 days. It is recommended to factor in potential delays into cash flow projections and consider mitigation strategies such as negotiating stricter payment terms, requesting partial upfront payments, or utilizing invoice factoring services to manage the identified credit risk.
