Based on the data provided, Alpha Metallurgical Resources Inc's Days of Sales Outstanding (DSO) has shown significant fluctuations over the past four years.

In 2020, the DSO was 37.54 days, indicating that on average, it took the company around 37.54 days to collect its accounts receivable. This decreased to 36.24 days in 2021, showing an improvement in the company's ability to collect outstanding payments efficiently.

In 2023, the DSO decreased to 53.59 days, indicating some improvement compared to the previous year but still higher than the levels seen in 2021 and 2020.
