Company Review

Trend Analysis

The average time taken for SKY RETAIL STORES LIMITED to pay invoices to their suppliers has increased from 43 days in the first period to 51 days in the last period. However, there was a slight dip in the seventh period, where it decreased to 47 days. Overall, there has been a steady increase in the average time taken to pay invoices.

Volatility Analysis

The volatility in the percentage of invoices paid within 30 days has been relatively low, ranging from 4% to 24%. The percentage of invoices paid between 31 and 60 days has also been consistent, with a range of 67% to 94%. However, the percentage of invoices paid later than 60 days has shown more volatility, with a range of 3% to 24%. This indicates that SKY RETAIL STORES LIMITED may struggle with consistently paying invoices on time.

Dispute Resolution Process

At Sky, we aim to resolve disputes or queries regarding invoices and payment as quickly as possible. Should you have a query regarding the expected payment date of an invoice, you can contact our Accounts Payable helpdesk who will be able to advise further at the following address aphelpdesk@sky.uk. For contractual disputes, not necessarily related to payment date enquiries, you should follow the procedure contractually agreed and, if none, then please contact the individual(s) who ordered the goods or services you have provided. When an invoice dispute is received, it should if possible be resolved at point of contact with the Accounts payable team. If this is not possible, the query will be escalated to the business contact and a relevant senior finance contact. When resolved, the invoice will be available for payment on the next standard payment run.
