Amedisys Inc's days of inventory on hand (DOH) has shown a slight increase over the years, from 3.62 days as of December 31, 2020, to 3.97 days as of December 31, 2021. However, there was a notable jump to 7.30 days as of December 31, 2022. This increase suggests that the company may be carrying more inventory relative to its sales. The absence of data for December 31, 2023, and December 31, 2024, makes it challenging to assess the trend further. A high DOH value could indicate potential inefficiencies in inventory management, leading to increased holding costs or the risk of obsolete inventory. Further analysis and comparison with industry benchmarks would provide a clearer understanding of Amedisys Inc's inventory management efficiency.
