Company Review

Trend Analysis

The average time taken for HALDANE FISHER LIMITED to pay invoices has remained relatively stable over the past three periods, with a slight increase of 1 day from 2018 to 2023. However, there was a significant improvement in the percentage of invoices paid within 30 days from 2018 to 2023, with an increase of 11%. This could indicate a focus on timely payments by the company.

Volatility Analysis

The volatility in HALDANE FISHER LIMITED's payment patterns can be seen in the fluctuation of the percentage of invoices paid later than 60 days. From 2018 to 2023, this percentage ranged from 25% to 30%, with the highest being in 2020 and the lowest in 2023. This shows that the company's payment habits are not consistent and may be influenced by external factors.

Summary Analysis

In the past three periods, HALDANE FISHER LIMITED has maintained an average time to pay of around 54-58 days. However, there has been a positive trend in the percentage of invoices paid within 30 days, which increased from 3% in 2018 to 14% in 2023.
