It was at its highest of 10.82 for the quarter ending March 31, 2023, indicating that the company paid off its suppliers more than ten times during that period.

The general trend shows some variability but with the ratio mostly staying above 7, suggesting that the company is effectively managing its accounts payable and paying off creditors in a timely manner.
