Company Review

Trend Analysis

ENSCO SERVICES LIMITED demonstrates a consistent trend of slow payments, with an average payment time of 59 days. A dominant 92% of payments fall into the 31-60 day or over 60 day categories, indicating a clear trajectory towards extended payment cycles. Only 8% of invoices are settled within 30 days, confirming a pattern of delayed settlement.

Volatility Analysis

The high 64% late payment rate significantly impacts cash flow predictability for suppliers dealing with ENSCO SERVICES LIMITED. With 41% of payments extending beyond 60 days, the company presents a high-risk profile for timely settlement. While 51% pay within 31-60 days, the substantial portion of very late payments introduces significant volatility and unreliability in payment schedules.

Summary Analysis

ENSCO SERVICES LIMITED poses a high payment risk due to its average 59-day payment time and 64% late payment rate. Suppliers should anticipate extended payment cycles and potential cash flow strain, making clear upfront payment terms or requiring deposits crucial for engagement. Implementing stricter credit limits, shorter net terms, and considering late payment penalties are recommended risk mitigation strategies for this client.
