Trend Analysis

The average payment time for KEYSIGHT TECHNOLOGIES UK LIMITED is 39 days, primarily influenced by 57% of payments occurring between 31 and 60 days. This indicates a consistent trend of payments extending beyond standard 30-day terms, yet generally settling within a 60-day window.

Volatility Analysis

A notable 11% of payments extend beyond 60 days, with 10% officially categorized as late, introducing a moderate level of payment unpredictability. While the majority pays within 60 days, this minority presents a clear, albeit contained, risk factor for extended payment cycles.

Summary Analysis

Suppliers can generally expect payments within 60 days, averaging 39 days, which slightly exceeds typical 30-day terms but is manageable. However, it is crucial to account for the 10-11% probability of payments extending past 60 days and consider establishing clear credit limits or a buffer for cash flow planning to mitigate this specific risk.
