Payment Terms

Standard payment terms

EOM 30 Days

Were there any changes to the standard payment terms in the reporting period?

We moved from EOM 45 Days to EOM 30 Days. Compared to H2 2023 and H1 2024 our average days to pay reduced by 10 days from 65 to 55, although percentage paid late in this period has increased to 77%. These late payment in the most relate to invoices being paid 4-6 days outside our new payment terms. We hope that with actions currently being discussed we will see a large decrease in invoices paid late in the next reporting period
