Trend Analysis
WARNER CHAPPELL PRODUCTION MUSIC LIMITED demonstrates a strong positive trend in payment speed, with an average payment time of just 11 days. A significant 93% of invoices are settled within 30 days, indicating a consistent pattern of prompt payments. While 17% of payments are classified as late, the overall trajectory points towards rapid invoice processing.
Volatility Analysis
Payment reliability is high, with 93% of invoices consistently paid within 30 days, offering strong predictability for suppliers. However, 7% of payments extend beyond 30 days, with 2% going over 60 days, introducing a low level of payment volatility for a minority of transactions. The 17% late payment rate indicates some invoices miss their contractual due dates, requiring suppliers to consider potential minor delays for a portion of their invoices.
Summary Analysis
Overall, WARNER CHAPPELL PRODUCTION MUSIC LIMITED presents as a highly favorable client for suppliers due to its exceptionally fast average payment time and high compliance within 30 days. Key decision factors include the strong cash flow predictability provided by 93% of invoices paid rapidly. Suppliers should mitigate risk by acknowledging the 17% late payment rate and the minor chance of invoices extending beyond 30 days, allowing for slight buffer in cash flow projections for a small percentage of transactions.
