The continued reduction further decreases the DOH to 5.68 days by July 31, 2025.

The overall trend reflects a consistent and substantial reduction in the number of days inventory is held on hand over this period. This pattern points toward increased efficiency in inventory management, faster liquidation cycles, and potentially a higher rate of inventory turnover. The stabilization of the DOH at around 6.84 days between 2023 and 2024 suggests that the company achieved a balanced level of inventory holding, maintaining efficiency while avoiding over- or under-stocking.
