HUGHES AND SALVIDGE LIMITED has an average payment time of 40 days, placing most transactions in the 31-60 day window, which accounts for 67% of all payments. Only 24% of invoices are settled within the standard 30-day period, indicating a consistent pattern of extended payment cycles beyond typical terms. The 9% of payments exceeding 60 days suggests occasional but notable delays at the tail end of their payment behaviour.
With 67% of payments concentrated in the 31-60 day band, the company demonstrates a relatively predictable, albeit slow, payment pattern with low spread across extreme ranges. The late payment rate of just 7% indicates that while payments are frequently delayed beyond 30 days, outright contractual default or significant lateness is uncommon. Suppliers can expect moderate predictability in cash flow timing, though planning should account for a de facto 40-day settlement cycle rather than standard 30-day terms.
HUGHES AND SALVIDGE LIMITED presents a low-to-moderate payment risk profile, with consistent behaviour centred around 31-60 days and a manageable late payment rate of 7%. Suppliers should consider adjusting internal cash flow forecasts to reflect a 40-day average and may wish to negotiate payment terms explicitly aligned to this reality to avoid unnecessary credit exposure. To mitigate risk, suppliers could implement early payment incentives or set credit limits that reflect the extended payment cycle rather than assuming standard 30-day terms.
