The Days of Sales Outstanding (DSO) for American Woodmark Corporation over the specified period demonstrates notable fluctuations. As of April 30, 2021, the DSO was approximately 30.74 days, indicating that, on average, the company took about 31 days to collect payments from its customers. This metric slightly increased to 30.85 days by April 30, 2022, reflecting a marginal延增长in the collection period.

However, a significant reduction occurred by April 30, 2023, where DSO decreased to approximately 21.05 days. This decline suggests an improvement in the company's receivables management and more efficient collection processes during that year. Subsequently, the DSO increased again to around 26.10 days by April 30, 2024, indicating a slight lengthening in the collection cycle. By April 30, 2025, the DSO decreased somewhat to approximately 23.74 days, reflecting a partial recovery but still remaining higher than the levels observed in 2023.

Overall, the DSO trend indicates periods of both improvement and slight deterioration in receivables collection efficiency. The reduction in 2023 signifies a period of enhanced collection performance, whereas the subsequent increases point to some challenges in maintaining those efficiencies. The current DSO levels suggest a relatively moderate credit collection cycle, consistent with the company's operational and credit policies, though the fluctuations highlight the dynamic nature of its receivables management.
