Trend Analysis
WATER PLUS LIMITED demonstrates a strong tendency for prompt payments, with 81% of invoices settled within 30 days, resulting in an average payment time of 32 days. This indicates a consistent payment cycle that, while generally timely, often extends slightly beyond strict net-30 terms. A discernible pattern shows that 19% of payments regularly extend beyond 30 days, with 5% falling into the over 60-day category.
Volatility Analysis
The payment profile exhibits moderate volatility; while 81% of payments are highly reliable, the remaining 19% introduce a predictable but consistent delay. This creates a cash flow risk, as suppliers cannot reliably anticipate all invoices to be settled within a 30-day timeframe, especially with 5% exceeding 60 days. Although there is no indication of complete payment defaults ("Late: 0%"), the extended payment durations for a significant minority of invoices necessitate proactive financial planning from suppliers.
Summary Analysis
Overall, WATER PLUS LIMITED is a generally acceptable payment partner, but suppliers should be prepared for an average payment cycle of 32 days and potential delays for a portion of invoices. Key decision factors include the high probability of payment, offset by the non-trivial risk of extended terms for 19% of invoices, including 5% beyond 60 days. To mitigate risk, suppliers should consider factoring in a slightly longer payment window, adjusting credit terms, or implementing tiered payment schedules to account for these predictable delays.
